The beginning is only when you become a chef

Chapter 21 Boss Xia changes his lane again
Xia An started to set up the stall after receiving the order for Fantasy Ingredients at around 8 o'clock.

It was very late at this time, so when we arrived at the stall owner area of ​​the night market, we could only squeeze in at the very end to set up our stall, which was a very remote place.

However, there are a lot of tourists at the Qixing District Night Market. Even if the stalls are placed in an inconspicuous corner, as long as they are attractive enough, they can be crowded with onlookers in an instant.

This is the current situation at Xia An’s stall.

He and Hojo Midori had just dismantled the huge iceberg and had not yet started to chisel it, but dozens or even hundreds of people had gathered around them in three layers, eating and talking.

"What does this giant ice mean?"

"The sign clearly says private chef late night snacks? And then they got a huge piece of ice..."

"Hey, boss, what kind of food show are you planning to do with this giant piece of ice?"

The crowd was noisy, and most of them were new guests who came to watch the fun.

Just as Xia An was gathering all the ice-cutting tools and preparing to start.

A powerful voice sounded:
"Boss Xia, here I come!"

There was a burly fitness buddy who easily squeezed through the crowd and walked into the stall.

This is an old customer and also the group owner of Boss Xia’s Taotie Exchange Group. His name is Sun Qidong and he is a gym coach.

When Sun Qidong saw the giant ice, his eyes widened:

"Boss Xia, could this giant piece of ice be related to the mysterious food you announced at your stall?"

Hearing this, many people in the crowd pricked up their ears and became even more curious.

Xia An smiled:

"Just watch, it will be revealed soon."

"You are the group leader. When everyone in the group arrives, you will organize and arrange for them."

“Family members in the group can enjoy my new dish first without waiting in line!”

Sun Qidong laughed and said:
"Great! Is this a benefit for group members?"

"I feel like after today, my food exchange group will become very popular, with a large number of new people clamoring to join the group."

Xia An took the tools and before starting to chisel the ice, he looked around for his daughter Xiaoxi. When he saw Hojo Miyoko holding Xiaoxi's hand tightly, like a dedicated nanny, he felt at ease.

In this way, Xia An can devote himself wholeheartedly to the preparation of dishes.

First of all!

It's about chiseling out the iceberg!

"Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding..."

There were bursts of noise coming from the stall, and Xia An was seen lying on a huge piece of ice, carving something seriously.

The onlookers were even more curious and thought that the stall owner was doing the art of ice sculpture and food.

Douyin is booming now, and everyone knows that they can take videos and upload them to the Douyin video station to earn traffic and publicity.

Therefore, from the perspective of group leader Sun Qidong, he saw many bystanders holding up their mobile phones and recording videos.

Boss Xia ignored it.

Sun Qidong would not overstep his authority to intervene, and he was quite happy to see it.

You know, Sun Qidong was also one of the earliest customers who chased Xia An's stall, from this scenic spot to that university gate.

However, whenever a stall gains a certain degree of fame, its influence gradually ferments on the Internet.

Boss Xia always changes his business suddenly. He used to sell soy milk, buns, and fried dough sticks, but the next time he set up his stall, he simply sold fried chicken.

Therefore, Sun Qidong was very sure that Boss Xia’s giant Bobo Chicken stall would not be open for long.

Although the fame of the Bobo Chicken stall seems to be exploding and has been spreading like a virus on Douyin in recent days.

In many travel videos introducing Lijiang City.

Night market route and must-visit list.

Boss Xia’s giant Bobo Chicken stall began to appear frequently.

but!

It's just such an ordinary day.

Boss Xia has suddenly changed his food focus again!

Sun Qidong was busy organizing group members who came from all directions.

A female Douyin anchor who was broadcasting live came up, holding a selfie stick:
"Dongzi, why doesn't Boss Xia sell his Big Mac Bobo Chicken today?"

This is also a group member, a female anchor who has over a million fans on the Douyin platform. Her main style is to say what she thinks, and give sharp and venomous comments that are real.

Of course, she is different from those female internet celebrities who are packaged by a team.

This female anchor named Lu Jiaxin also comes from a family of chefs. Her ancestors were chef Long from the imperial kitchen of the palace.

His cooking skills are also rated three stars, so he is not just a pretty face with nothing in his head.

"Jia Xin? Why are you in Lijiang City?"

Sun Qidong was stunned. The last time he saw Lu Jiaxin and invited her to join the group was a month or two ago when Boss Xia was setting up a random stall.

Lu Jiaxin is obviously a hot pants girl, her face is full of collagen and she exudes youthfulness.

But when she started talking, she had the temperament of a silly old girl, which made people want to laugh for some reason:
“Hey, aren’t those some videos of Jumbo Bobo Chicken that set off Douyin!”

"Many fans sent me private messages, strongly urging me to visit the store to see what's going on!"

Hearing this, Sun Qidong laughed:

"Hahaha, I knew it, but Jiaxin, you're late. Boss Xia doesn't plan to take over the track of Big Mac Bobo Chicken anymore."

As he spoke, Sun Qidong moved closer and looked curiously at the live broadcast screen on Lu Jiaxin's mobile phone.

Upon seeing this, Sun Qidong exclaimed.

There are actually 20,000 to 30,000 online viewers?
As we all know, the number of online viewers on the Douyin platform is quite real, but the mobility is very large.

However, Lu Jiaxin’s live broadcast room.

There seemed to be very few passers-by, and they were all loyal fans. There was no situation of sudden rise and fall in data.

The comments were also quite enthusiastic.

[Can this muscular guy please get out of here? He's blocking my online tour. I want to see the night market scene in Lijiang City! ]

[What? So the Big Mac Bobo Chicken stall is no longer in business? It was me who sent a private message to strongly urge Jiaxin to visit the store. ]

[If you use your brain, you will know that by making such a huge portion of Bobo Chicken, how can the stall owner make money? ]

[It doesn’t make money, but loses money to gain publicity, so the popularity of Big Mac Bobo Chicken has exploded in the past two or three days! ]

[All the people in the videos commented, "I'm crying, what kind of godly stall owner is this? He runs a night market food stall not to make money, but to feed the diners until they are full! Feed them until they are full!"

There were also comments that noticed the tinkling sounds coming from the stall and kept refreshing the screen, urging Lu Jiaxin to go and check out the situation.

Lu Jiaxin said: "Hey, I know everyone is anxious, but please don't be anxious yet. Is there any administrator here? First, block the guy or sister who spammed the screen. Just block him or her for 10 minutes to let him or her calm down!"

As she spoke, Lu Jiaxin moved closer to the electric tricycle.

And at this time.

On the electric tricycle, a three-meter-high iceberg has gradually revealed its grandeur.

"Boss Xia, I'm Jiaxin, do you remember me?"

Lu Jiaxin waved and said hello.

Xia An vaguely remembered this silly old girl, who seemed to be a famous Douyin player.

Seeing Xia An nodded.

Lu Jiaxin continued, "Boss Xia, you don't mind being on camera, right?"

"do not mind."

Xia An glanced at the pole and the live broadcast phone in her hand.

"So, Boss Xia, you carved this huge piece of ice. Are you planning to make it into a delicious carved food at the night market?"

Lu Jiaxin is worthy of being a big anchor with goods. She has obviously keenly smelled the aura of carved food from the rugged iceberg.

Xia An hasn't answered yet.

Lu Jiaxin’s Douyin live broadcast room exploded first.

The stall scene and passers-by watching.

Hearing Lu Jiaxin say this, they couldn't help but whisper to each other and discuss it heatedly.

"I know about carving delicious food, but is there any connection between ice carving and delicious food?"

"that is!"

"How can an ice sculpture be used as a delicacy? Do we have to eat the ice directly on top of it?"
