The Spirit of Gourmet

Chapter 102 The Ambition of the "Super Player"
Inside the "Super Player" amusement park.

A figure wearing a tiger skin is interacting with and taking photos with the tourists gathered around, occasionally letting out a "roaring" sound.

But because of the cute appearance of the costume, the voice did not scare the children; instead, it made them giggle.

Just then, a man in a staff uniform quickly squeezed into the crowd, giving the tourists around him an apologetic smile, "Dear tourists, I'm sorry, the big tiger has something to attend to for the time being and can't accompany you."

After saying that, he pulled the figure dressed in a tiger skin suit away quickly.

The tourists looked disappointed, but quickly became excited and interacted with the other staff members wearing mascot costumes.

On the other side, after the two reached a secluded spot, the staff member looked helpless and said, "Director, you've really been a long way off for me."

"What amusement park owner would dress up as a character in a costume?"

"Just a little hobby." The tiger took off its mask, revealing a face with somewhat sinister features and a scar.

It was none other than Sun Zhihong, the director of the "Super Player" amusement park.

"Normally, because of this face, everyone avoids me. But after putting on the suit, I've become quite popular." He shook his head and sighed, then looked at the staff member, "Zhong Chang, what do you need me for?"

“Director, I’ve heard some bad news.” Zhong Chang said with a serious expression, “It seems like ‘Happy Party’ is up to something.”

"Hmm?" Sun Zhihong's face darkened, his already fierce expression becoming even more menacing. "What kind of trouble is this?"

"I heard that old man Ye Zhen has recruited a large number of people and reopened the large amusement facilities."

"Looks like he's still not giving up." Sun Zhihong shook his head, a hint of disdain on his face. "But so what?"

"At this point, even if he opens up the large amusement park rides, it won't save 'Happy Party'!"

“Besides that, they seem to have some other plans,” Zhong Chang said in a deep voice. “I happen to have a relative who runs a stall in the food street.”

"I heard that... 'Happy Party' poached all the spirit chefs from the food street and rented out the amusement park's food area to them for free."

"Hmm?" Sun Zhihong's expression turned somewhat surprised.

This step was beyond his expectations.

Sun Zhihong knows his family's catering situation best. In order to reduce costs as much as possible, the food he makes is basically barely edible.

The food made by the owner of Yu Ling Chu is, of course, delicious.

Is Ye Zhen trying to use food to gain an unfair advantage?
A sense of urgency suddenly welled up in his heart.

But only for a moment, Sun Zhihong's expression relaxed again.

"I thought it was something important." He scoffed. "That's all?"

"That old man Ye Zhen has indeed made some progress in thinking of using food to overtake others, but he has overlooked the most important thing."

"You need to buy a ticket to enter the amusement park!"

"How many people would spend hundreds of dollars just to enjoy a delicious meal and buy an amusement park ticket?" He looked at Zhong Chang beside him and smiled calmly, but the smile, combined with his face, looked particularly sinister.

"It won't be long before he completely ruins himself."

The "fun party," already struggling to make ends meet, has spent so much money on a desperate gamble; what if it ultimately fails...?

I'm afraid it's really not far from going bankrupt.

Sun Zhihong looked at his proud "Super Player" amusement park and chuckled.

"My amusement park is still not big enough."

"Perhaps we could build a branch campus?"

"Qin Lang, are you really going to make the origin dish of Egg Treasure?" Back at the hotel, upon hearing Qin Lang's choice, Cao Dongdong and Zhao Qian immediately showed expectant expressions.

Of the three, Qin Lang's cooking skills were undoubtedly the best, far surpassing the other two.

"When you were born as a Food Spirit, you must have chosen the dish you were best at cooking," Cao Dongdong clicked his tongue. "I can't even imagine how delicious that dish would be."

"I think I remember that dish was called fried rice with egg."

Zhao Qian said thoughtfully, "Back then, my grandfather even went to Qin Lang's house to steal some food just to taste it."

"Hiss...that must be so delicious!" Cao Dongdong wiped his drool.

Qin Lang's lips twitched slightly.

I wonder what Grandpa Zhao's expression would be if he knew that his granddaughter was spreading rumors about him.

"Alright, stop hinting."

Seeing the two of them chatting and laughing, Qin Lang shook his head helplessly and stood up. "Let's go, I'll make you some to try, as a late-night snack."

Just then, the little chubby chicken laid another egg that evening.

One egg is only enough to make one serving of fried rice, but it can be mixed with regular eggs for cooking. Although it's not as good as fried rice made entirely with premium eggs, it still tastes much better than regular fried rice.

"Great!"

Cao Dongdong and Zhao Qian gave each other a high five and followed Qin Lang into the kitchen.

"Stop thinking about food all the time." Looking at the two of them with their gluttonous expressions, Qin Lang couldn't help but roll his eyes. "Dongdong, how's the stuff I asked you to prepare coming along?"

"Don't worry!" Cao Dongdong patted his chest. "When I, Cao Dongdong, take care of things, it's absolutely reliable!"

"Whether it's the stall cart we three will use for our stall tomorrow, or the other things you mentioned, everything is ready!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Lang nodded and began cooking fried rice.

Soon, the rich and pure aroma of eggs drew gasps and exclamations from the kitchen.

After a short wait, the three of them each carried a large plate of fried rice and shared it with their respective food spirits.

"Mmm, it smells so good!" Cao Dongdong shoveled a big mouthful of fried rice into his mouth, shaking his head and exclaiming, "This is the best-tasting rice I've ever eaten!"

"Now I finally understand why Egg Treasure's flavor is salty." Zhao Qian on the other side was equally amazed. "You can actually cook such a delicious meal with just rice, eggs, and a little bit of chopped green onion."

"That's really amazing."

Bubu and Tuantuan ate the egg fried rice prepared by their family's spirit chef, nodding repeatedly and eating with great joy.

"Guru Guru~"

Perhaps because the two little friends were eating their own original food, Egg Treasure had a strange feeling that it was treating them. Seeing that the two food spirits enjoyed the food, it was just as happy and even shared some of its own fried rice with them, which was unprecedented for it.

"Go to sleep after you finish eating." Qin Lang shook his head with amusement as he watched Cao Dongdong and Zhao Qian wolf down their food.

"The amusement park opens at nine o'clock in the morning, and we have to start setting up our stalls. Including the preparation time, we probably have to get up at six or seven in the morning."

Upon hearing this, Cao Dongdong and Zhao Qian's expressions changed simultaneously.

Oh no! I almost forgot about that!

After showing off their fried rice, the two of them ran back to their room without saying a word.
