Have you ever seen glowing food? That's why you draw a food-themed anime.

He subconsciously glanced at Su Chengye.

Dude, you weren't talking about psychology...

Didn't you say the customers would mind?

They're all actively recruiting people online!

They're all yelling and starting to form teams!

Psychology doesn't seem to work very well.

They don't seem to mind!

...

And at this time.

A group of suspicious-looking people approached from the front and followed the group while Xu Zhou wasn't paying attention.

Chapter 64 The New Dish is Awesome!

Xu Zhou had already calculated the amount.

Although there are only fifty servings of salmon and mackerel ochazuke, you can get one hundred and fifty servings by upgrading from level two to level three, and you can also buy one hundred servings of each dish.

Level 3 only requires exceeding 1,000 wish points.

If all fifty dishes are sold out, the wish value will instantly increase by 750. If other diners who buy smaller portions are included, it will break 1,000 in just a short while.

There were just too many people.

Many of the customers queuing up nearby also wanted to buy salmon ochazuke first.

Xu Zhou also lent a hand and started making salmon ochazuke (rice with tea).

...

Tea-soaked rice is very simple.

The pan-fried king salmon, due to the grilling technique used, not only had its skin charred brown from being seared at high temperatures with a blowtorch, but the oil inside the fish also seeped out little by little.

At first glance, the skin is golden and crispy, and the orange-red fish meat is bright and glossy.

The rich aroma of the thick, grilled fish and the creamy scent of the top-quality king salmon make it almost impossible for anyone to resist the urge to approach.

“It smells so good…”

"It smells so good! The fish looks so plump and tender; it would be fresh even if eaten raw..."

"It will taste so good after being grilled!"

Those who watch closely, seeing the glistening, oily color of the grilled fish, will have their mouths watering.

But what's even more eye-catching than the fish is Xu Zhou.

He was dressed in a chef's uniform, and his cooking movements were unhurried. He put the steamed rice in and then poured in the soul tea soup.

Even in a bustling city, his calm and focused cooking style inexplicably gives him the air of a reclusive sage.

The people around immediately fell silent.

Even when people shout "first-class", many people subconsciously lower their voices.

"Salmon ochazuke, whose is that?"

"mine!"

The diners in line couldn't wait to take their small plastic bowls, as if they were holding precious treasures.

The next person immediately followed with sparkling eyes and an expectant look on their face.

Meanwhile, in the queuing area, a diner holding up his phone and taking pictures stood out.

He filmed the "Immersive Experience of Visiting Songnan University's Food Festival" VLOG while keeping his voice low.

"Family, I'm currently queuing for a food stall from a metal cart..."

"To be honest, I originally planned to eat at the old restaurant on the first day and then try the new one tomorrow, but this restaurant's ochazuke is made with king salmon!"

When it was his turn, he instinctively pointed the camera at Xu Zhou's hand.

A close-up shot captured him holding a delicate turquoise teapot in one hand, pouring the tea.

...

The tea soup coming out of the teapot spout was steaming hot.

When the clear, steaming tea soup submerged the rice, the mist slowly rose, creating a sense of tranquility and peace, as if a food documentary was being filmed.

Wang Yongzhi was stunned.

The rice in the clear tea broth is like snow on a snow-capped mountain, and some of the salmon fat floats on the surface of the tea broth, making you feel the rich and mellow flavor of this bowl of tea-soaked rice at a glance.

Are you filming a video?

As soon as Xu Zhou spoke, he saw Wang Yongzhi come to his senses in a daze and subconsciously reveal all his secrets.

"Yes, boss, my name is Wang Yongzhi. I'm a small self-media blogger with only 80,000 followers."

"If you don't mind, I might include all the footage I just filmed in my vlog."

It must be edited as the main content of the VLOG!

The way Boss Xu looks when he's focused on cooking is absolutely amazing!

The food looks beautiful!

Moreover, he possesses a calm and composed air of a master!

"I have no opinion."

Xu Zhou remained calm and was not affected by being photographed. Instead, he focused even more intently on cooking.

...

Wang Yongzhi watched as more and more people joined group buying, and ate his meal nearby.

He originally planned to eat while filming.

He propped his phone up on a stand on the table next to him, pointing the rear camera at himself.

At first, he would pay attention to the camera and say a few words to interact with it.

But when the first bite of fish entered his mouth, Wang Yongzhi's eyes widened suddenly.

The entire fish was pan-fried until it was crispy and fragrant—no, not pan-fried, but rather grilled with a blowtorch over a high flame to create a unique aroma.

After gently biting through the crispy outer layer, the rich, fatty, and sweet king salmon meat underneath is revealed. With effortless chewing, you can taste the exquisite flavor that only top-quality ingredients can offer.

One small bite wasn't enough!

He then gulped down a large mouthful of tea.

The tea soup already had some fish oil floating in it, and the sweet tea soup already had the unique sweetness of kelp. When paired with the thick, creamy salmon meat, the whole dish immediately became rich and flavorful.

The broth permeated every grain of rice; every bite was pure essence.

"Is this the King Salmon?"

"How wonderful it would be to be able to take a big, satisfying bite of fish..."

After finishing his meal, Wang Yongzhi looked at the empty bowl, his mind still reeling from the delicious taste, and his brain went completely blank.

After a few seconds of stunned silence, he suddenly caught sight of the phone in front of him out of the corner of his eye.

Ok?

Why is there a cell phone in front of me?

He was momentarily stunned before it dawned on him... Holy crap! That's my phone!

Wang Yongzhi immediately picked up his phone in a flurry to check the footage he had just captured.

But when you open it, all you see in the picture is your huge head, almost completely buried in the bowl as you eat.

Not a single dish was photographed.

Wang Yongzhi: "..."

All he could do was take pictures of other people eating with his phone.

But after filming for a few seconds, I realized, holy crap!

Everyone eats the same way!

...

Xu Zhou naturally had no idea how much traffic Wang Yongzhi's vlog could bring him.

By this time, it was getting dark.

The surrounding shops selling non-original leather all turned on their colorful lights.

The entire food festival suddenly took on the feel of a night market.

Just then, his phone buzzed once.

I received a message from Jiang Mingzhu on my phone.

[Jiang Mingzhu: Little boss! Today's total foot traffic is about five thousand people, but your store only has about six hundred customers making a purchase.]

Even if all 600 people give you positive reviews, and those reviews carry more weight, other people's votes are still important. Tomorrow's score is also crucial.

In addition to positive customer reviews, a food festival should also consider the overall impression of its customers.

A user has ten votes and can vote for ten stores.

If a user makes a purchase at the store, their weight score will increase; if they don't make a purchase, it will decrease.

But even if it's reduced.

Other people's impressions are also important.

When Xu Zhou received this message, he turned his head and glanced at the Su Family Imperial Cuisine Restaurant next to him.

Although Su's Imperial Cuisine Restaurant doesn't have as many people queuing as ours, if everyone could vote for ten stores...

Su's Imperial Cuisine and One Dish One Meal would definitely be on most people's voting list.

Because they are famous.

unless…

To attract more customers.

While Xu Zhou was pondering whether to add new dishes and only sell small portions of the imitation barbecue dish, he noticed that the [Salmon Ochazuke] had been upgraded.

[Salmon Ochazuke Recipe Upgraded!]

【Salmon Ochazuke Prayer Value: 1120/10000 (3)】

[Currently, the daily purchase limit for ingredients is 150.]

"Mom, I'm going to get some ingredients. Wait for me a moment."

Xu Zhou planned to fry the new batch in the preparation room before coming over.

But as soon as he stepped out of the stall, he saw a group of people acting suspiciously over there.

They were wearing masks and hats, and were looking in our direction.

Eyes facing each other.

Xu Zhou recognized them immediately.

"What are you all dressed like...?"

Chapter 65 Food Reservation Coupons!

From a distance, it might be difficult to see who it is.

Xu Zhou recognized him immediately.

The group of people in front of me, looking furtive and wearing black coats, masks, and hats, could only be my high school classmates.
