Zhou Xudong felt like he must have some special constitution.

Every time he wanted to eat something, something strange would happen: just when it was his turn, they'd run out.

With no surprise at all, always the person in front of him bought the last one.

"Looks like I'll have to eat it tomorrow." Zhou Xudong sighed, having waited in line for a dozen minutes for nothing.

"Don't worry, there will be something better tomorrow."

Zhou Xudong asked, "What time do you open tomorrow?"

Chen Mo pointed to the menu, "It says there, ten in the morning."

Zhou Xudong could only leave the food stall with regret, heading towards the hotel with his equally regretful wife and child.

Even though Chen Mo was already packing up, customers who had just finished their stewed noodles kept coming by to ask, "Any more left?"

Chen Mo replied to each of them, "No more."

Li Xiaobo had two bowls of stewed noodles, "I'm impressed! Brother Chen, now I understand, my cousin let you in but not me, it's probably not because of the car issue."

"Then why?"

"What you make is really delicious, I'm telling you." Li Xiaobo leaned on the food truck counter, "I've sneaked in before; even the best-selling sausages next door never had business like yours today."

"Oh? Is that so?"

"I'm really telling the truth!" Li Xiaobo, seeing Chen Mo's indifferent look, got anxious, "I swear I'm not lying! Forget it, I'll line up at eight o'clock tomorrow morning."

"Can you get up that early?"

Li Xiaobo chuckled, "You wouldn't know this, but to get in line early tomorrow, I splurged to book a room nearby, staying here tonight!"

Chen Mo:...

Not wanting to chat much with this guy because just now, a call from Lalala said that ten boxes of frozen rabbit heads had arrived, and the security at the gate wouldn't let them in, saying their cafeteria didn't order such things.

Sent Li Xiaobo away.

Chen Mo went out, bringing the driver from Lalala to unload the goods to his food truck.

Time, eight in the evening.

"Looks like I need to pull an all-nighter to upgrade."

All the frozen rabbit heads were soaking in cold water to thaw. Fortunately, most of the customers in the food zone had gone back; otherwise, these five hundred rabbit heads soaking separately in large water basins would look rather odd.

Lalala also delivered fifty chickens; Chen Mo thought it was about the right amount. Any more, and he couldn't manage it all.

The chickens were put in the cupboard to slowly thaw, and they could only be prepared after getting up the next morning.

The mutton soup was used up, so he had to boil another pot, then split it in half to continue simmering. One pot for tomorrow's stewed noodles, and the other to cook the lamb chops overnight. There was still time to press the lamb chop meat.

"Ha, seems like a busy night ahead." Chen Mo put the used dishes back in the cabinet for automatic cleaning, then orderly started preparing the items he planned earlier.

Xiao Juzi had run out to play by itself at noon and hadn't returned yet. No need to worry; that little one knows the way, smart as it is.

Time, slowly passing.

...

On the top floor of Huaxi, Wen Zhiliang gathered with three bosses.

"This doesn't seem right either; Chen Mo's business is good, but it can't guide consumers to spend here with me!"

Zhao Jianzhong took a breath, "True, everyone goes for the delicious food. If you arrange the technicians in the lodging area, no one is here. If you arrange them in the hot spring area, everyone feels embarrassed to ask for technicians in public!"

"The main area should be fine, but you're offering that thing for free, can't make profit from it either." Lin Bin also found the problem somewhat tricky.

Qin Fei had a similar thought, "My side has no problem with the program, but it's free too, just icing on the cake. The real issue is how to attract more people to soak in the hot spring through these things!"

Hold activities? Do promotion?

Wen Zhiliang didn't think so, "Didn't you notice, today those guests mainly came for Chen Mo's snacks? They even waited there till evening to eat stewed noodles! Yet, this food is the hardest to promote in advertising!"

Chen Mo is not some nationally renowned chef, really nothing much for a promotional hook.

Wen Zhiliang thought long and hard, "How to integrate Chen Mo's gourmet food with other services? Tsk... so difficult!"

The few fell into distress.

Attracting customers is always a university subject, after all, it's really about getting money from others' pockets, and it has a bit of cross-industry meaning; it's not that easy.

Integrating food with other services... Wen Zhiliang spent the whole night pondering this issue, never finding the correct answer.

...

Jingzhou, School of Communication.

"Damn, where did Boss Xiao Chen go with such awesome service!"

Red packet appeared, people thin on the ground.

Fang Zhizhong: Where is this? I'll contact the bus right now, everyone can go tonight; tomorrow is perfectly the weekend.

Dunzi: No way, Boss Fang, are you serious?

Fang Zhizhong: I won't allow any boss north of the Yangtze River to enjoy better than me!

Old Zhao was shivering at home, not daring to speak, only secretly peeking at the screen.

He Chunming: Where the hell did the technician come from, just massaging by the pool? Boss Fang, should I send a few technicians over for you?

Fang Zhizhong: Yes.

Zhang Feng: Say no more, my car just beeped twice by itself, even my car can't stand still!

LuLu: I have a few sisters who do wedding gigs part-time, @Boss Fang, can I bring them over for a side show? Uh...I'll cover the wages!

Just wages, a day's pay of three hundred would have many dance students grabbing it, LuLu felt like this live stream could earn quite a bit.

Fang Zhizhong: Sure.

Old Zhao, seeing Boss Fang being calm and decisive, knew he must be serious, "Honey, honey!"

Recently, the child just finished the entrance exams, Guo Aiping finally relaxed a bit, lying down watching TV, "What are you hollering for?"

"Honey, I feel like I'm much better now."

Guo Aiping immediately stood up, no longer with a stern face, "Really? Then can I go take a bath?"

Old Zhao forced a smile, "Really! Just right, Ni'er is staying with her grandma today."

"Wait, I'll find the underwear I bought last time."

Old Zhao sent his wife into the bathroom, closed the door, and started doing some radio dance exercises to loosen up, since he'd often get muscle cramps lately.

Conveniently, he sent a message to the intel group: Friends, remember to give me a voice call for when to set off!

Dunzi: @Old Zhao, rest assured bro, we won't let you go under the knife for nothing!

Du Gong: Brothers, really going? Just right, my construction site is done recently, been idle, can you take me along?

Dunzi: Bring everyone, bring everyone!

Zhou Hu: Damn it! My competition is tomorrow, can't you go a little later?

His message was drowned in the group chat, unnoticed, Zhou Hu made a secret resolve, if I win gold tomorrow, I'll chase Boss Xiao Chen across ten provinces!

Fang Zhizhong casually made two calls, and the company buses used for employee transport were immediately put in place.

As late as nine in the evening, two full busloads shuttling across various streets of Jingzhou, with more passengers gradually boarding.

These late-night passengers didn't look sleepy at all, instead, each had an excited look on their face, as if something big was about to happen.

As the bus hit the highway, LuLu finally found out in the intel group where the place was.

Yu Hui: One glance and you'd know, Huaxi Hot Spring in Xuchang, I've been there before.

LuLu excitedly waved her phone, "Boss Fang, Huaxi Hot Spring in Xuchang!"

Fang Zhizhong sat in the front row, nodding slightly, like a general leading an army to battle.

Originally, he wouldn't have been this impulsive, blame it on that photo which thoroughly inspired Fang Zhizhong.

Construction has been tough lately, and he was always looking for new investment opportunities.

Jingzhou is quite high in elevation, with winters that are long every year, and in the scenic area near Wanglong Mountain, there is also a hot spring area.

"A project integrating gourmet food, foot massage, arcade, hot spring, entertainment, and lodging?"

Fang Zhizhong showed some interest.

He knew he wasn't young anymore, every investment might be the last, as a man his age he grew increasingly resistant to losing!

And the passengers on this bus were just his free... experience officers.

At Huaxi Hot Spring, the worried Boss Wen, the soundly sleeping police academy, the bushes-playing Xiao Juzi, and the busy Chen Mo.

The new tomorrow seemed like a very important day for everyone!
