The Spirit of Gourmet

Chapter 107 Special Interview

this smell...

Luo Feng's eyes showed surprise.

What surprised him was not the complexity of the aroma, but rather its simplicity and purity. Just like the name "egg fried rice," all he could smell were eggs and rice.

But it was this simple and direct aroma that subtly aroused Luo Feng's appetite, leaving him with only one thought in his mind at that moment.

That is, no matter what, he must eat this delicious food!

"Your fried rice is ready, please enjoy."

Just a moment after Luo Feng was stunned, Qin Lang packed the steaming hot fried rice into an eco-friendly lunchbox he had bought in advance and handed it to him.

The white egg white, the golden rice coated with egg yolk, and the green scallions—a simple combination that greatly stimulated Luo Feng's vision.

He subconsciously took it, inhaled the aroma of the whole egg fried rice with relish, and then picked up the spoon without hesitation, scooped up a large spoonful of egg fried rice, and somewhat rudely put it directly into his mouth and began to chew.

The rich aroma of eggs fills the mouth, without any fishy smell, but rather exceptionally pure and intense. This must be the renowned Wild Swan Egg from Dongyun.

The rice grains are distinct, fluffy yet slightly sticky, and release a sweetness slowly as you chew it. The rice used to achieve this aroma and texture must be the first-tier Zhuzhou early rice variety.

And these scallions, with their rich but not overpowering aroma, perfectly complement and blend with the rice and egg flavors. This is Qingyang's unique scallion!

Driven by his professional instincts, Luo Feng almost instinctively began to analyze the ingredients as he tasted them, and then he was surprised to find that Qin Lang had selected the highest quality ingredients.

Such costs are not cheap.

This made him look at the boy in front of him with new respect.

However, Luo Feng soon had no time to think about these things.

He was completely captivated by the aroma of the fried rice and joined the glorious rice.

Only when not a single grain of rice remained in the lunchbox did Luo Feng reluctantly put it down, tossing the lunchbox and spoon into the nearby trash can, and rubbing his slightly bloated stomach.

Wow, this fried rice is quite generous in portion size.

He had originally planned to write a feature article on snacks, but suddenly he had a new idea, and he happily went back to the stall.

"Young boss, please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Luo Feng, and I'm a food writer for 'Gourmet House,' the magazine you just saw. May I interview you?"

"A food writer?" Qin Lang glanced at the magazine placed to the side with some surprise, then looked at the other person.

What a coincidence!

Since there's no business yet, Qin Lang casually asked, "After the interview, will you write an article for the next issue of 'Gourmet House'?"

"If nothing unexpected happens, that's how it will be." Luo Feng smiled slightly, "The magazine 'Gourmet House' has many loyal readers. If they see my articles, it will also help more people know about you..."

Qin Lang waved his hand, indicating that he wasn't very interested in becoming famous. "When will the next episode of 'Gourmet House' be released?"

"Gourmet House is a monthly magazine," Luo Feng patiently explained. "What you just saw was the latest issue; the next issue will be more than twenty days away."

"More than twenty days..." Qin Lang couldn't help but frown.

He had hoped that if he could take this opportunity to give it a push, he might be able to complete his plan better and bring more visitors to the amusement park more quickly.

But after more than twenty days, that would be too late.

"Is there a faster way, preferably within a week?" Qin Lang asked.

"A faster way?" Luo Feng glanced at Qin Lang in surprise. In his mind, the other man didn't seem like someone eager to become famous. But then, Luo Feng suddenly remembered what he had learned from the other stall owners.

Qin Lang gave them the secret recipe on the condition that they set up a stall in the amusement park for a week!
Qin Lang's request should also be related to this.

Luo Feng looked around, lost in thought.

As a local, he was naturally familiar with the "Happy Party" amusement park, and in just a short while, he roughly guessed Qin Lang's purpose.

“If that’s the case… there is another way.” Luo Feng slowly said, “In addition to the offline print magazine, ‘Gourmet House’ will also publish an online e-magazine.”

“Unlike offline publications, e-magazines are daily publications because there are no printing costs,” Luo Feng said earnestly, looking at Qin Lang. “In the best-case scenario, they can even be published in tonight’s latest issue.”

"So fast?" Qin Lang looked pleasantly surprised.

If it's published tonight, it will be a great help.

After all, the sooner you attract popularity, the greater your chances of success.

“However, there are some differences between electronic and print publications. Electronic publications tend to appeal to younger audiences and are not as formal…” Luo Feng paused slightly, “so the value of publications in them is much lower.”

Qin Lang understood what the other party meant.

If he leaves his name in the main issue of "Gourmet House", other spirit chefs and the spirit chef association will have a higher opinion of him.

However, if it is only an electronic publication, the effect will be minimal.

“Absolutely no problem.” Qin Lang smiled slightly. “Mr. Luo Feng, we can begin the interview now.”

“In that case…” Luo Feng skillfully pulled out a voice recorder from his pocket and looked at Qin Lang with shining eyes.

"Could you share the secret to making your fried rice so delicious?"

"Ugh~~"

After vomiting rainbow-colored liquid for most of the day while leaning against the trash can, Xu Zhu finally accepted the tissues handed to her by Song Xiaoyu, her face pale. "Thanks."

"I'm really fed up with you." Song Xiaoyu gave a disgusted look. "Luckily there weren't any other tourists on the roller coaster, otherwise..."

Hearing Song Xiaoyu's words, Xu Zhu gave an awkward smile.

He overestimated his abilities; before he even got off the roller coaster, Xu Zhu threw up on the ride.

Fortunately, Song Xiaoyu wisely chose not to go with him. The "Happy Party" amusement park was deserted, and Xu Zhu was the only one on the bus at the time.

When Xu Zhu got off the roller coaster, the staff member in charge of the roller coaster looked at Xu Zhu with a hint of resentment in his eyes.

After all, he also had to be responsible for cleaning.

"Anyway, I feel much emptier now." Xu Zhu rubbed his stomach and chuckled, "I can eat again!"

"It's amazing you still have an appetite." Song Xiaoyu shook her head speechlessly. "Then let's go to the food area and get something to eat."

After playing on the amusement park rides for several hours, she got hungry.

She feels like she could eat a whole cow right now!

The two walked quickly toward the temporary ticket gate they had been told before. Before they even passed through the gate, they saw what was happening on the other side and their expressions changed simultaneously.

"Why are there so many people?!"
