The octopus has taken the bait!
"I bought this."
"So what if you bought it? You can go queue up again."
Such bickering arguments between couples never stopped around the dinner table.
Lingyun was originally capable of cooking A++ level delicious food, which was already far superior to the B level taste in the original small shop.
Besides, today's butter is served.
The flavor has improved even further.
The rich, creamy aroma of butter blends with the natural fat of the steak at high temperatures, permeating every fiber of the meat. This significantly enhances both the flavor of the butter and the tenderness of the steak.
One bite.
The moment the juice bursts between your teeth, it's like a dazzling firework in your mouth, and the aroma travels from the tip of your tongue all the way to the top of your head.
As more and more people lost the argument and reluctantly went back to queue, people soon noticed the previously unnoticed blind box braised quail eggs.
"Boss."
Someone pointed to the brand of blind box braised quail eggs and gestured with their chin towards Li He: "Can I buy these now?"
"sure!"
Li He was carrying a plate of steak through the crowd when she responded without turning her head.
"Then let's start with two...three servings."
The first person spoke up.
The diners in line then started making noise.
Shouts of "Give me three servings, I'll give you five servings!" rose and fell like a relay race, and soon more than fifty servings were served.
This made Zhang Moli very happy.
She stopped delivering steaks and instead focused on collecting payments and delivering braised quail eggs from table to table, keeping herself constantly busy with her work.
"It tastes great! I like the spicy version!"
A middle-aged woman with curly hair took a bite, her eyes narrowing into slits.
"Mine is the sour soup version."
Her companion next to her also tried one and nodded repeatedly.
"Try them! Each one tastes different, it's so much fun!"
A boy wearing a baseball cap held up a paper cup to his friend, his tone laced with pride.
His girlfriend ate one.
I thought it would be a fun dish, but I was surprised to find it had an authentic five-spice braised flavor, and it tasted really good.
"It tastes great! This is both delicious and fun!"
Many people started shaking their heads and swaying as they ate, appearing very happy.
Although the taste wasn't as amazing as steak, the surprise from the blind box added a lot to its appeal, and the fact that it could be shared with friends made it a hot topic of praise!
There were originally less than a hundred portions of this product.
With people ordering several portions at a time, the entire stock sold out in less than fifteen minutes.
"They're all sold out!"
Zhang Moli pasted the QR code back onto the side of the food cart, clapped her hands, and let out a long sigh of relief.
"Are you relieved now?"
Ling Yun glanced at her in his busy schedule, the shovel scraping against the iron plate with a crisp metallic sound.
"Um!"
Zhang Moli nodded heavily, and a genuine smile finally appeared on her lips.
She turned around, her skirt swirling in the night breeze, and ran off to do her work again.
Lingyun lowered her head and continued cooking.
Eight meals can be served in five minutes, and with miscellaneous time taken up to an average of six minutes, eighty meals can be served in an hour.
He has a lot of stock.
We were busy from eight o'clock until ten o'clock. When I looked up, the line was still standing strong, winding and stretching out like a tireless snake.
[Activate the food truck mission: Receive 46/100 compliments from customers in person.]
Ling Yun paused for a moment, the shovel in his hand momentarily still.
He was initially pleased with the 75% ratio, but the actual number of 46 people poured cold water on his enthusiasm.
Four hours.
He served over a hundred meals, so why are there so few people praising him?
He quickly finished preparing the meals.
While wiping away sweat, I looked up and carefully scanned the area.
The diners who had just received their steaks were still engrossed in their meal, praising them endlessly and sharing them with their companions, but no one came to compliment him.
He understood instantly:
After the initial surprise fades and everyone knows how delicious it is, fewer people will praise it to your face individually.
Especially regular customers.
Therefore, to complete this task, we still need new customers.
The night market has some natural foot traffic, but not much. To attract a large number of new customers, it needs to rely on online promotion.
Especially those customers who see the video first and have expectations, and then find that the food exceeds their expectations and are greatly amazed, are most likely to exclaim their praise in surprise.
These customers who come through videos are often outgoing, like to take photos and videos as souvenirs, and it can also help expand their reputation, achieving multiple benefits in one fell swoop.
Ling Yun lowered his voice and called out, "Li He!"
Li He came running over, panting heavily, her hands gripping the edge of the food cart, her forehead covered in sweat, and the back of her T-shirt already soaked through.
"What's wrong, Chef Ling?"
"How's the traffic for our video account right now?"
While Lingyun was preparing the dishes in the afternoon, Li He had already edited and sent out the first video.
That's exactly what he asked.
"I haven't had a chance to watch it yet!"
Li He took out her phone and quickly tapped the app with her thumb.
As soon as I entered the backend, I saw the message statistics section appear, with an ellipsis icon representing more than one hundred messages.
Her grip on the phone tightened.
Is the first result really that good?
She had previously posted promotional videos for her milk tea shop, but initially each video only garnered a few dozen views, and even when she appeared in the video herself, the views were only a few hundred.
There is only one.
It took her five hundred dollars in promotional expenses to finally break the four-figure mark.
It's purely about the effect of money.
it's good now.
Unexpectedly, Lingyun's first video garnered hundreds of views in just half a day.
Li He took a deep breath, opened the message and checked it carefully. She found that Zhang Moli, He Yu and many other classmates had left messages.
They also patiently introduced Ling Yun's identity.
Some of Lingyun's old customers left messages after learning about the situation, wishing her all the best for her business and saying they would come to support her in the next couple of days.
That is precisely why,
That's how the video's views jumped to several hundred.
It turned out to be the case.
Li He's feelings were somewhat complicated.
The good thing is that the account seems to be starting up smoothly, but the bad thing is that the reason for the success is not myself, but the reputation that Lingyun has built up over the past year.
When it comes to contributions to the food truck, even Zhang Moli has surpassed her.
After all, both spice recipes are priceless!
Thinking of this, she secretly gritted her teeth and made a vow:
With such excellent skills and a loyal customer base, Lingyun is determined to leverage her strengths.
Li He's eyes darted around, and she took out her phone to dial He Yu's number, her tone urging him on:
"Where are the people? Weren't they here to show their support?"
"Just finished evening self-study, I'll be right there!" He Yu's panting voice came from the other end of the phone.
He Yu came over after finishing his evening self-study session; it was already past ten o'clock.
He saw a line of more than fifty people in front of the food truck in the distance, paused, and blurted out:
"Holy crap... so many people? Are we going to miss our turn?"
He stood at the back of the line, anxiously tiptoeing to look ahead.
He checked the school's online message board on his way here.
Zhang Moli posted quite a few messages on it, and many classmates echoed her sentiments, saying that Lingyun's cooking skills had improved again.
There are also rare blind box braised quail eggs.
Progress again!
These four words held great appeal for He Yu.
He even wanted to kidnap Ling Yun to be his head chef!
"Who told you not to come sooner!"
Li He's eyes darted around, and she deliberately sighed, shaking her head with a face full of regret:
"I wonder how many portions of food Brother Ling prepared today. It would be such a shame if there wasn't any left by the time it was your turn..."
"Hello!"
He Yu reached out and tugged at Li He's sleeve, his voice low and his tone somewhat ingratiating:
"Give me some perks, I'm one of our own, after all."
"No, that won't work!"
Li He looked towards the food cart with a troubled expression, her brows furrowing slightly.
"Brother Ling specifically told me to take good care of the guests and not to do anything reckless; everyone's in line..."
"Then I..."
He Yu glanced toward the food truck, then looked over Ling Yun, who was working diligently, and realized he had even less chance of finding him.
Just as I was about to look away, I suddenly caught sight of the sign, and immediately exclaimed "Hey!" My eyes lit up.
"Has anyone ordered the one with the price of 2666?"
"That steak from the chef was incredibly delicious, but it wasn't worth it!"
Li He's tone conveyed her good intentions and consideration for you.
He Yu's mind was filled with only the words "super delicious," and his eyes widened immediately, his voice rising a half-octave:
"I want this one, there's no need to wait in line!"
"Need not!"
Li He squinted her eyes, and the corners of her mouth curved into a sweet smile, like a cat that had stolen a fish.
The fish has taken the bait!
