Chapter 1: Bobo Chicken at One Yuan a Skewer

"Bobo chicken, Bobo chicken, Bobo chicken for one yuan."

Late at night, in Lijiang City, the night market street is still brightly lit and crowded with tourists.

Xia An, however, planned to close the stall.

It’s not because his business is bad, on the contrary, it’s because the business is too good. All the prepared ingredients are consumed, so why not close the stall and go home to wash them?

His stall is no different from other night market food stalls.

A modified electric tricycle was equipped with his double-burner gas kitchen counter, and underneath was a cupboard filled with pots and pans.

As for the small chairs and small dining table for serving guests.

Sorry, Xia An doesn’t have these and has no intention of preparing them.

Because Xia An always runs the stall alone, without any help, if he expands the stall, who will clean up the mess on the table after the customers have finished eating?

Customers who come to his stall to order food either take it away or eat while standing.

It was nearly twelve o'clock at night.

This small night market stall has a neon sign that says "Private Chef Late Night Snacks".

It still attracts guests in an endless stream.

"Boss Xia, do you have any more stock? How many skewers would you like?"

"Please, Boss Xia, we're out of skewers? Could you please stock up a little more?"

"Boss Xia, without your midnight snack tonight, how am I going to survive until tomorrow, kukukuku..."

Xia An raised his head and looked at the muscular man who laughed so hard and said speechlessly:

"Brother, come on, let's taste it."

As Xia An said this, he packed up the last few bunches of vegetarian dishes and stuffed them all at once to this guy:
"5 strings, 5 yuan for you."

"Okay!"

The burly fitness buddy happily scanned the code, then couldn't wait to take out a string of broccoli and start enjoying it in big mouthfuls.

The guests standing behind him cast envious glances at him.

Especially seeing the giant string of broccoli in his hand.

Some of the customers who lined up for the first time out of curiosity had shocked expressions.

Oh my god, brother, this is not Bobo Chicken.

It should be called Mongolian barbecue skewers!
No, it should be the super long bamboo skewers used for Mongolian barbecue skewers, which are used to string together the Bobo chicken vegetarian skewers of terrifying length and weight.

[Ding, 5 yuan has been received from Weixin]

The new customer then listens to the pleasant reminder sound from the booth when the fitness buddy scans the code and pays successfully.

Everyone had a dazed look on their face.

Damn it! Damn it!

really?
This super long and huge skewer of broccoli, is it really only 1 dollar?

"Gulu~"

The customers looked at the sign on the stall that read "Bobo Chicken, one yuan a skewer", swallowed their saliva fiercely, and their eyes flashed with a faint green light like a wolf or a tiger.

Super real, one dollar a string!
The gym buddy ate with relish, finishing the extra-long string of broccoli in just a few bites.

With a slurping sound.

The face naturally exudes ecstasy:
"Only with Boss Xia do I feel that I have a good reason to let myself go!"

"After training hard every day and burning more calories, isn't it just for the sake of having a meal at Boss Xia's stall?"

Xia An smiled speechlessly and shook his head, then took out his cell phone and informed everyone in the group that the food was running out tonight and there was no need to come any further.

But the group leader is not him, but this fitness buddy.

The old customers had tried to persuade Xia An several times with kind words, so what else could he say but to join the group.

The prestige group suddenly became lively.

[Chasing the Wind: (bursts into tears) I knew it was a familiar plot, the meat skewers were snapped up when Boss Xia opened the stall, I went too late and could only eat the vegetarian skewers! ]

【Gua Xiaogua: (picking nose) Those vegetarian skewers are really one yuan a skewer, you are not satisfied after eating them?】

【封心锁爱: (thumping the ground and laughing) With giant meat skewers for only one yuan each, who would want vegetarian skewers? After eating three giant beef and mutton skewers, I was so happy that I tilted my head! 】

After letting everyone in the group chat for a few minutes, Xia An skillfully closed the stall. Just as he turned over and sat in the driving seat of the electric tricycle.

A series of bells rang.

Xia An frowned and took out his cell phone to check. The caller note was "Director of the Late Night Cooking Association".

He took out the Bluetooth headset from his trouser pocket and put it on.

He stepped on the accelerator of the electric tricycle and slowly drove away from the noisy and bustling night market before making the call back.

"Hello, Mr. Xia An, I am a director of the Late Night Cooking Association, and I would like to confirm with you again."

"I am listening."

"In three hours, that is, at 3 a.m., can you arrive at the Lijiang Seven Stars Hotel and participate in the late-night food battle on time as scheduled?"

"I will be there on time. Didn't you call me once last night?"

"Sorry, this is the work process, the second confirmation before the start. In addition, you can check the information of this food battle opponent on the Midnight Cooking App."

"Thank you."

"Then I will be waiting for you at three o'clock in the morning."

After hanging up the phone, Xia An rode his electric tricycle back to the village at the edge of the Ten-Li Gallery Scenic Area, far away from the main urban area.

In the night, the three-story house with solar lights on is Xia An’s home today.

Of course, he only signed a ten-year long-term lease.

This private house has a yard and is surrounded by the beautiful scenery of Yangshuo's Ten-Li Gallery. The rent is very cost-effective compared to other places in the city.

Anyway, Xia An lived very comfortably. He could go out and come back late at night, or make a lot of noise in the kitchen in the middle of the night, and he didn't worry about disturbing others or getting complained about.

Open the gate wide.

The electric tricycle successfully stopped in the yard with the electronic sound of "Please be careful when reversing" and "Please be careful when reversing".

Today's stall has come to a successful conclusion.

Xia An did not rush to unload the pots and pans from the electric tricycle. Instead, he sat in front of a shallow pond in the yard, took a deep breath and calmed his mind.

The pond reflects the bright moonlight.

The data screen above his field of vision was also rippling.

[After setting up a stall at a night market, the operating loss on that day exceeded 1,000 yuan. ]

[Cooking experience reaches the threshold of double critical hit feedback! ]

[This night market stall earned a total of 1,000 experience points! ]

Looking at the text message, Xia An didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

His cooking panel is very changeable and can be easily adapted.

In the past few months, we were still binding ourselves to a city and setting up stalls randomly.

Starting this month.

I just set up a stall at the night market and became a cooking god.

However, no matter how the content and gameplay change.

Xia An's character panel is always here.

[Basic skills: seasoning (minor mastery), knife skills (minor mastery), heat control (minor mastery), flipping the pot (minor mastery), plating (beginner), pastry (beginner)]

[Skills/Talents: Thousand Faces]

【Cuisine/Specialty: Cantonese cuisine (small master)/Sichuan cuisine (beginner)】

[Attribute points: None]

“Beginner/Entry/Minor Success/Great Success/Perfection/Ultimate State.”

"These 1,000 experience points are just enough to upgrade a beginner's basic skill to an entry-level one."

The route Xia An planned for himself was to become the ultimate hexagonal warrior.

Thinking of the food battle that would be taking place late at night, Xia An didn't think too much and decided to add some basic skills to his plating skills.

[Plate arrangement (beginner) → Plate arrangement (entry level)]

[Comment: People need clothes, and dishes need to be beautiful. You have a deeper understanding of how to create aesthetically pleasing shapes on the plate.]
