Chapter 161 What kind of magical lettuce is this? (Subscribe)

As Chen Ji’s Western food cart appeared in the A-area exhibition hall, more and more people coming to the Seattle Expo began to be attracted by the tempting aroma of roast chicken.

Even though there is a roasted chicken on a plate on the cart, the MC [Furnace] under the cart is working non-stop.

In order to arrange this publicity drama, Chen Jue specially stuffed ×64 [raw chicken] and [bayberry logs] into the [furnace].

During the process of roasting [raw chicken] → [cooked chicken], it not only emits the unique burnt aroma of MC roasted chicken, but also carries a fragrance mixed with fruit wood fuel.

Many foreigners who are sensitive to aromas are particularly fond of this. As soon as they smell it, they start to discuss it: "Oh my God! What kind of fruit wood is this roasted with?"

"The light fruity wood smoky smell is more attractive than apple wood and cherry wood!"

"Which brand's recipe for roast chicken is this? It seems to be tastier than the secret recipe of Orleans!"

More and more exhibitors and tourists came here attracted by the smell, and many of them directly recognized the logo on the uniform of the chef pushing the cart.

"It's the Chen's in Vancouver!"

"Is it the Chen Ji that went viral online before and had people lining up to eat PUBG?"

"Chen Ji is also participating in the exhibition? Go check it out. I haven't tried it since it became popular."

"This roasted chicken smells really good! There's a reason why it's so popular, it really has its way." People in the crowd began to talk.

Although Chen Ji’s popularity has begun to fade recently, it has left a deep impression on many diners who pay attention to the Internet.

Just like the Tianshui Malatang and Zibo BBQ before, as long as it has been on the hot search, people will continue to mention it no matter how long it has been.

This is the effect of brand effect and traffic promotion, which is activated and detonated instantly just like being burned into DNA.

So when Chen Ji’s Western food cart appeared, the tourists who came to the Seattle exhibition started taking photos and recording videos like they were star-chasing.

There was also a large group of greedy tourists who wanted to try out Chen Ji's secret roast chicken and see how delicious it was. They formed a group and followed the cart and kept moving towards area D16 where Chen Ji's stall was located.

The scene was just like fans chasing a star, with a Western food cart moving slowly in front and more and more people following behind.

So much so that all the self-media and TV stations that came to the Xiya Exhibition to interview and report rushed over, holding up cameras to capture this wave of people.

"Fuck...fuck!"

"This is a brilliant idea, cousin!"

"Where did you get so many Hot Wheels?"

Li Fei, who was originally worried about the flow of customers at the stall, was startled when he saw the huge crowd of people that looked like zombies.

He immediately cheered up the listless Chenji employees under him and got them to serve customers as soon as possible.

Before, I complained that there were no customers and the event was not popular, and was given the cold shoulder by the organizers.

With so many tourists and buyers coming at once, Chenji's stall was crowded with people queuing up like when the main store had just opened.

The secret roast chickens brought in for promotional tastings were heated and chopped on the spot one by one, and then distributed with a piece of emerald lettuce.

The tourists who came to the scene to try it out had their eyes lighting up as soon as they tasted the MC roast chicken. It was like they were at an Internet celebrity restaurant to check in and eat. The taste exceeded their psychological expectations.

"Yum! So delicious!"

“Although it’s not freshly baked, it’s delicious if you heat it up in the microwave!”

"What a divine smell! It smells so good!"

"It's not greasy, and the chicken is tender and juicy. This roast chicken tastes better than Michelin and Black Pearl chicken!"

Since we were there to promote the exhibition, the roast chicken and smoothies on the stall were all given away and not sold. Each person could only get a small portion to try.

But after tasting it, all the Shanghai gourmets present could no longer sit still and started asking about Chen Ji's chain development plans.

After all, it’s such a delicious roast chicken, how can you satisfy yourself by just tasting some chopped chicken?

So someone suggested that Chen Ji should open a branch in Shanghai as soon as possible, and they would definitely go to support it when the time comes.

"Thank you all for your support! We at Chenji are currently expanding our chain in Jiangxi Province. Modu is our next focus. We will open a branch here within this year at the latest." Li Fei was busy sweating profusely. He was introducing with a handheld loudspeaker while maintaining the order of the queue at the scene.

However, when seeing these diners trying to throw away the lettuce leaves in their hands after tasting the chicken, Li Fei hurriedly reminded them: "Don't throw it away! Lettuce is also edible! This is the 'Emerald Lettuce' newly cultivated in our Chenji Farm. It is different from the ordinary lettuce on the market. It tastes better when eaten with roasted chicken."

After saying that, Li Fei also hung up the price tag on the stall that imitated the one in Chen’s shop.

After the secret roast chicken and the taste of summer from grandma's house, there was a new item called 'Emerald Lettuce', and it was clearly priced at 1 yuan per piece, which stunned the diners watching on the scene.

"What the hell?"

"Lettuce is sold by the piece, 1 dollars per piece?"

"Fuck! Is this because you think your business is too good and you want to make money like crazy?"

"Isn't this the fresh lettuce you often see in the vegetable market?"

"Could this vegetable leaf be made of gold? How dare they sell it for so much!"

Many diners who like to haggle over every penny were immediately furious.

It’s fine that a roast chicken is advertised as priced at 188 yuan, after all, it tastes really good when you try it, and you won’t get such top-notch flavor anywhere else.

But it is unexpected that such common lettuce leaves are sold at such a high price, which makes Chen Ji's store seem a bit unauthentic.

You should know that many barbecue restaurants on the market give away whole plates of lettuce for free.

Even in high-end Western restaurants, lettuce leaves are not listed separately and sold at a price. Instead, they are placed under the plates as decoration.

However, when someone stood up to question and sing a different tune, a foreigner who came to the exhibition curiously put the lettuce leaves in his hand into his mouth and chewed them.

The crispy crunch and the light vegetable sweetness.

The grilled chicken fat left on the leaves made the foreigner's eyes widen in an instant. He was so surprised that he shouted in broken Chinese: "Oh my god! What kind of lettuce is this? It's so sweet!"

As the saying goes, foreign monks are better at chanting sutras.

Even foreigners say that this lettuce is delicious, so there must be no problem.

Therefore, the diners who received Chen Ji's tasting set also tried the so-called "emerald lettuce".

The refreshing sweetness in the mouth and the crisp feeling when biting made the diners who had originally questioned the expensiveness of the lettuce leaves immediately shut their fussy mouths.

Including the diners who received the tasting set meals later, after following Li Fei's advice, they used the lettuce wrapping method commonly used in barbecue restaurants and stuffed the chicken in their mouths in one bite.

With a light chew, the unique taste of MC roast chicken + jade lettuce is like several layers of original BUFF, which immediately conquered the taste buds of these diners.

"This lettuce doesn't even have a bitter taste! What kind of magical lettuce is this!"

"It's so delicious! This kind of lettuce is cheap at 3 yuan a piece."

"If you look closely at this lettuce, it is indeed a little different. Look at the texture and color. There is not a single bad stem. It is as beautiful as jade."

"Delicious food, beautiful words are in the forefront. This jade lettuce is worth 3 yuan per piece just for its appearance!"

"Oh my! Why is there only one copy per person?"

Many diners with big appetites looked unsatisfied after trying this new combination meal.

It's just like Zhu Bajie eating the ginseng fruit. The flavor is gone after one bite before you even have time to taste it. How can it not make you angry?

So the diners who had just finished tasting the food started to make a noise beside the stall: "Where is your boss of Chen Ji? Tell him to stock up more and open a branch in Shanghai as soon as possible!"

"Are you not going to do business that is delivered to your door for free?"

"If I could take it away, I would order 100 copies today!"

I finally made it to Friday after working overtime. I will update everything for you over the weekend.
