"Checking in, I've already found Little Boss Wang, and the boss is barbecuing. I'm about to enjoy delicious food, hahaha."
Feng Haoyu opened his phone and, after getting Wang Fan's confirmation, took a photo of him.
Wang Fan had very strict personal hygiene standards, and since he loved white the most, even his apron for grilling skewers was white. The brand-new apron, as white as snow, paired with his naturally fair skin, looked very photogenic.
But Li Wei is a straightforward guy; he took photos only of the skewers, with the entire image capturing just Wang Fan's slender hands holding the skewers.
"How did you guys get here so fast? I've just booked tickets for the day after tomorrow morning."
"Boss Wang's hands are still so beautiful. I strongly request the poster to take a full-body photo of Boss Wang!"
Li Wei checked the person's information. If it was a pretty girl, he wouldn't mind granting her request, but upon seeing the gender, he decisively refrained from taking a photo. Get lost, you creep!
"Huh? Is Boss Wang using an electric grill for the skewers? This... really lowers the anticipation?"
"What do you mean up there? Are you doubting Little Boss Wang's skills?"
"Er... not really, I actually work in barbecuing. An electric grill and charcoal grill aren't the same; anyone who's grilled meat would know that. But since Little Boss Wang is on Mount Tai, open flames aren't allowed there, so he probably chose an electric grill because of that. However, everyone shouldn't get their hopes too high; meat grilled with an electric grill tends to be quite dry."
"I know, that's definitely the case. The color of the grilled meat and charcoal-grilled meat can't compare. It lacks the glossy, oily look."
"Just because you can't do it, doesn't mean Little Boss Wang can't. Little Boss Wang's grilled meat must be delicious!"
"That's right, I'm a hardcore fan of Little Boss Wang's food. Anything Little Boss Wang produces is guaranteed to be premium quality! I'm booking my tickets now to support Little Boss Wang's barbecue business!"
"Count me in. I happen to want to collect both Mount Tai and another of Boss Wang's delicacies."
Li Wei didn't see these messages; otherwise, he would've definitely argued with those who doubted Little Boss Wang because Wang Fan was already sprinkling salt on the grilled meat, and he knew this was the last step before the meat was done.
He glanced sharply at Feng Haoyu and He Chenhui, knowing a fierce battle was about to unfold.
When it comes to eating, I, Li Wei, have never lost to anyone in my life!
...
Some flags can't be recklessly raised, and some confidence shouldn't be blindly had.
Wang Fan originally thought that Northeastern people were already big eaters, but today completely redefined the term 'big eater' for him.
He assumed those two old men were exceptions, but it turns out Boss Wang was the real exception!
His minute-and-a-half speed of grilling 100 skewers was almost unable to keep up with the speed at which these three foodies were devouring them!
Li Wei, with a skewer in each hand, ate so quickly that oil dripped from his lips. From grabbing the skewers to leaving only bare bamboo sticks on the table took not more than five seconds.
His mouth seemed like a ruthless shredder, devouring anything that entered with relentless speed.
Feng Haoyu's eating style was pretty similar to his; it's unclear who learned from whom.
He Chenhui was different from them.
He took the skewers and first slid the meat off onto a plate. After filling the plate, he raised it to his mouth, his chopsticks sweeping the meat into his mouth like a broom. His speed was no less than Li Wei and Feng Haoyu's.
"Do you Lu Dong people not have stomachs? Do you have a small black hole inside instead?"
As he watched the three of them devour meat and still look eagerly at him, Wang Fan couldn't help but ask them this soul-searching question.
Initially, when he saw the request for 500 skewers, he wondered why the system suddenly became ambitious?
But seeing these Lu Dong people's appetites, he knew the system was still the same lazy system.
With just these three Lu Dong people eating freely, a day's task could be completed!
That's 400 lamb skewers! Not the southern kind with just one piece per skewer, but skewers with seven pieces of meat, with half lamb leg and half lamb fat skewered producing only about 30 skewers!
Subtracting the fire loss, these three managed to consume at least 6 pounds of meat in just over ten minutes, averaging two pounds per person and still not full?!
He just hadn't seen the appetite of Boss Wang's three big kids; otherwise, his perception would've been shattered long ago.
Seeing Wang Fan's shocked expression, Li Wei smiled embarrassedly: "I usually don't eat so much; mainly it's because your skewers are too delicious, boss, I just couldn't resist."
Feng Haoyu and He Chenhui nodded like pecking chicks, agreeing wholeheartedly with Li Wei's words.
"I've never had such delicious grilled lamb skewers, and there's none of that smoky burnt taste. It's so tender when eaten that it's hard to control the amount..."
"Why don't we pay for it? It feels bad to eat so much from you without compensation..."
Wang Fan shook his head: "You're not giving me a hard time, are you? It's just a few pounds of meat; I can afford it. Are you three full yet?"
Li Wei, Feng Haoyu, and He Chenhui shook their heads in unison.
"Five out of ten full."
"Four point nine out of ten full."
"Four point eight out of ten full."
Wang Fan shook his head helplessly, feeling that his perception had been refreshed once again: "The skewers are gone, but I still have some lamb kidneys, potatoes, and cabbage. But let me say this; it's my first time making these three things, and I was planning to use them for practice. If you're okay with it, shall I grill them for a try?"
Li Wei immediately responded with excitement: "Willing, willing, being a test subject is the most interesting!"
"Whatever Little Boss Wang makes must be top-notch!" Feng Haoyu adopted a somewhat fanboy demeanor.
He Chenhui licked his lips: "Lamb kidney and all sounds like the best food! My stomach is eagerly prepared to accept them and send them to where they ought to go."
Wang Fan said: "Then wait a bit; I haven't prepared them yet, so it'll take a while."
The trio certainly had no objections. Enjoying a free feast that's so delicious, who could raise an objection? How shameless would one have to be to do that?
While Wang Fan prepared the ingredients, the trio started scrolling through their phones.
Li Wei opened his Weibo post and found many doubting Wang Fan's electric skewers. Would he stand for this? He definitely couldn't stand for it!
"I don't know how other places' electric skewers taste, but Little Boss Wang's are truly unique. I've never had such delicious grilled skewers. The meat is incredibly tender, bursting with juices at every bite. Don't believe it? Let me post a picture for you to see!"
He posted the photo taken before the grilling began.
The skewers in the photo looked glossy and juicy, devoid of the common dry and tough appearance of typical electric-grilled meat.
"Forget electric grills; even charcoal grills haven't brought such delicious skewers my way."
Feng Haoyu saw what Li Wei posted and added a follow-up comment: "I'm in the store too, and it's insanely delicious. Huaxia folks don't deceive Huaxia folks."
