Lu Dong's tourism bureau's highly impactful promotional video had a very significant effect.

"I originally planned to go for Boss Wang's BBQ, but who knew Lu Dong had so many good things? I already know where I'm spending my Qingming holiday."

"Go go go, first head to Zibo for Boss Wang's apprentice's BBQ, then switch to Zaozhuang for cherries, and finally head to Jining for durian!"

"To tell the truth, Lu Dong locals have a really stubborn palate, our dorm's number two was tied up and interrogated for three days and nights, and he still insisted their local specialties were just cabbage, radish, and bean curd sticks."

"Even if the King of Heaven came, our Lu Dong's specialties would still only be cabbage, radish, and bean curd sticks!"

"Still stubborn, huh? Just say you don't like it, why insist there's nothing good?"

"Can't be bothered with them, brothers let's go! Let's do some field research!"

"Tickets are already booked, Lu Dong here I come, Boss Wang's apprentice here I come!"

"It's been a month since Boss Wang last showed up, finally some news. I missed out on Mount Tai last time, whatever happens, I've got to try his apprentice's skills this time."

"Back in Boss Wang's hometown Harbin, there's still Wang's Braised Pork, run by his second uncle. I tried it last time, it's really delicious, but the uncle said it's nowhere near as good as his nephew's, little Boss Wang. I'm eagerly awaiting the latest update from Boss Wang, I must try it myself."

…

Li Wei and Feng Haoyu had imagined crowds when their BBQ stand opened, but they never imagined seas of people.

When dreams become reality, the excitement of dreams coming true made the duo overjoyed.

The two brothers psyched themselves up, determined to have a grand opening today, so they didn't embarrass their master!

But their enthusiasm didn't last long because there were just too many people.

The two turned into skewer grilling machines, grilling batch after batch non-stop, both using charcoal, and the rising charcoal dust from the grilling had already blackened their faces.

Chu Feng chuckled mischievously at Li Wei: "Hehehe, Awei, why aren't you smiling? Have you stopped liking to smile?"

Seeing Li Wei's face filled with despair, Chu Feng felt as refreshed as drinking chilled beer.

Serves you right for tempting me!

Li Wei forced a smile uglier than crying: "Can't finish grilling, just can't finish!"

Chu Feng complained: "Can't get it, just can't get it, I've been in line for two hours and still haven't gotten BBQ, can you speed it up?"

Li Wei cried: "Big brother, please wait a moment, it's being grilled right now. If it doesn't work out, why not head to little Feng's BBQ? His grilling is better than mine!"

Chu Feng took out his phone, snapped a picture of Li Wei's pitiful state, and laughed heartily: "Serves you for being cocky before! Got scared? I still like your rebellious look back then! I'm not going anywhere, I'm waiting here today. The guys in the group said that Feng Haoyu's place is just as crowded, and they said they told the group to come here since they say your grilling is good. I saw a few group members heading this way."

"Oh crap! That guy, has no regard for comradeship!"

Upon hearing Chu Feng's words, Li Wei instantly cursed in anger, making Chu Feng laugh non-stop.

While cursing, he passed the freshly grilled lamb skewers to Chu Feng, all 50 of them. Chu Feng took them and immediately praised: "Not bad, not bad, you've at least got 80% of Boss Wang's skills, this charred flavor is spot on."

Hearing this, Li Wei stopped cursing the unprincipled Feng Haoyu and said, a bit sheepishly: "Far from it, far from it, how could I dare compare to the master?"

Chu Feng looked around: "Strange, why don't I see Boss Wang?"

Li Wei replied: "Master didn't come. He said since he taught both of us, it wouldn't be appropriate to endorse either one, so he let us compete fairly."

Chu Feng nodded: "Alright, keep busy, I'll eat my skewers."

After speaking, he walked towards his small table where a few of his friends were.

Placing the skewers onto the small grill on the table, Chu Feng called out: "Come on, guys, dig in. These skewers have at least 80% of Boss Wang's skill, worth the trip."

Hearing this, they each grabbed a skewer and started eating, the charred flavor indeed showed skill.

Zhou Chen asked, puzzled: "So delicious and it's only 80% of that Boss Wang's skill? No way."

He didn't quite believe it, this BBQ was the best he had ever had, the charred crispiness was unbeatable. Such deliciousness was only 80% of someone else's skills?

Chu Feng chuckled: "Even saying 80%, the boss wouldn't admit. As far as I'm concerned, it's almost that level."

"Oh man, even 80% is this good, how delicious must Boss Wang's BBQ be?"

Chu Feng laughed heartily: "You guys missed the chance to try Boss Wang's BBQ. Serves you right for not climbing Mount Tai with me, now you can wait and regret."

Li Wei didn't expect the craze for Zibo BBQ to be so high.

It was one thing for business to be booming on opening day, but for several consecutive days after, despite Qingming holiday being over, it was still packed every day.

Every day he's so busy that the charcoal dust on his face is almost impossible to wash off!

This won't do, grilling like this, sooner or later, it's going to kill me. I need to think of something!

After thinking for a bit, he took out his phone, opened Weibo, and posted a status on Zibo's official blog: "Welcome everyone to visit Zibo, for BBQ in Zibo, be sure to choose Little Feng BBQ, address: XXXX"

After posting, Li Wei was satisfied and put away his phone.

He picked up a beer nearby and downed half the bottle in one go.

As soon as he set down the beer, he heard the phone ring.

Upon answering, he was immediately bombarded with curses from Feng Haoyu: "You jerk! You can post on Weibo, but why did you set the address as my place, you bastard?"

Li Wei was about to smile apologetically, then suddenly realized something wasn't right.

I just posted it less than a minute ago, how did he find out?

He's probably just as busy, can't possibly be glued to his phone 24/7.

Without listening to the rest of Feng Haoyu's words, he decisively hung up the call. He found Zibo's official blog and saw that right below his post, there was another post almost seconds apart.

A post from an account with the avatar of Little Feng BBQ: "Welcome everyone to visit Zibo, for BBQ in Zibo, be sure to choose Riri Fresh BBQ, address: XXXX!"

"You son of a... you even have the nerve to question me?!"

Li Wei felt terrible, all sorts of curses ran through his mind.

Looking at his dwindling supply of grilled meat, and a few relentless foodies waiting for BBQ, Li Wei's eyes twinkled with a plan.

"Sorry folks, today's BBQ skewers are all sold out. You all came from afar, it's not easy. How about I send you to Little Feng BBQ? He's my fellow apprentice, his skills are better than mine."

The diners looked at each other, and no one opposed. They were just about to get moving when they saw a minivan pull up at the door of his BBQ stand.

Then Feng Haoyu stepped out of the car with a mischievous grin and said to Li Wei: "Awei, I've sold out my skewers today, and a few customers didn't get to eat. Considering they came from afar, I thought I'd bring them here to you. No need to thank me, after all, we are brothers, right? Hahaha."
