Gourmet: Midnight Vending-Chapter 385 - 354: The Perfect Life, Achieved at This Moment

Chapter 385: Chapter 354: The Perfect Life, Achieved at This Moment

After Chen Mo didn’t feel tired even after making countless pots of Phoenix Tail Shrimp, he immediately liked the casual white clothes he was wearing even more.

He wasn’t tired, but the others were exhausted!

The Xue Brothers, along with Huang Bo and Yang Wenhua, were later panting like dogs and all came to Chen Mo begging him to stop his crazy actions.

Looking at the situation at the North Gate, it’s just impossible to finish, absolutely impossible!

No matter how much was made, as soon as it was served, there would be a queue as far as the eye could see rushing up.

After all, they were all working for him for free, and the business hours had long ended. Continuing would only make his wallet bulgier, so Chen Mo decided to stop while he was ahead and announced the end of the stall for the day at one in the morning.

He thought he could finally rest after it ended, but just when the cleaning was almost done, Chen Mo was approached by a few smugly dressed middle-aged men.

"Mr. Chen, do you have time now?"

"Ah, and you are?"

Gao Hong smiled and shook Chen Mo’s hand, "I’m Gao Hong from the Cultural Tourism Bureau. Sorry to bother you so late. I really had no choice but to disturb you, Mr. Chen. Look at this."

[Street Food Stall Continually Faced with Challenges from Renowned Restaurant Chefs!]

[Will there be more famous Huaiyang chefs challenging Chen Mo’s food cart next?]

[Cooking Competition, Street Vendor Wins Twice!]

Chen Mo leaned over to look at Gao Hong’s phone, which displayed the real-time trending topics on Douyin, "Huh? What’s this about?"

While they were communicating at the food cart, customers on Beidamen Street kept gathering with no intention of leaving.

Everyone was curiously watching, and someone was holding a phone, presumably filming a video or live streaming.

LuLu and Gao Hao were among the early live streamers, especially LuLu, who brought her own fan base.

At that moment, the live stream room was back to its former glory, with the audience count surpassing ten thousand.

"Oh no, has Boss Chen finally been talked to by the Cultural Tourism Bureau?"

"Crying... We thought Boss Xiao Chen was our little happiness here in Jingzhou, but suddenly he’s famous all over the country. He’s even made it to the tenth spot on the Douyin trending list!"

"It’s absurd, it’s all because of those chefs. What’s the point of challenging him? I didn’t even get to try Boss Xiao Chen’s dishes, and now I have to chase him nationwide to have a taste?"

"It feels like your favorite niche music suddenly going viral, it’s distressing."

Just as the viewers in LuLu’s live stream room said, after tonight’s gamble on North Street and the wild cooking of Phoenix Tail Shrimp.

With the sudden increase in customers, plenty of people shared it on social media, posted videos, and several streamers were doing live broadcasts. With the already existing traffic, Chen Mo shot straight to the top ten on the Douyin trending list!

Many fans were dumbfounded watching Chen Mo lifting a massive wok weighing one and a half meters.

Seeing the wok filled with Phoenix Tail Shrimp and watching those customers gobbling them up like crazy after buying them.

The visual impact was overwhelming!

The more people watched, the higher the traffic.

The higher the traffic, the more people saw the videos and live streams, marking a virtuous cycle for Chen Mo’s business journey online.

Especially upon hearing that Chen Mo originally just set up a casual stall in Yangzhou, only to be challenged one after another by chefs from all the major restaurants. Unintentionally, he even gained a few competent free laborers. At this moment, the farce became quite dramatic.

Gao Hong ate a hundred skewers of Phoenix Tail Shrimp, which amounted to two hundred shrimp!

No matter how much he could eat, he was too full to continue.

Seeing that Chen Mo finally stopped his stall, he couldn’t wait to come over to discuss his thoughts.

"Boss Chen, you’ve made it big, really big!"

Chen Mo was somewhat confused. Honestly, he’d been busy upgrading the food cart recently and rarely went online.

"Ah, well..." At that moment, Chen Mo didn’t know what to say. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

Whether it’s gone big or not, it wasn’t his first time getting famous.

Previously, it was just a small-scale fame; now it’s nationwide fame. To Chen Mo, there’s no difference.

Gao Hong held Chen Mo’s hand tightly, "Boss Chen, on behalf of the Cultural Tourism department, I’m officially inviting you to join the Yangzhou Summer Food Festival. As a token of gratitude, we will set up an exclusive stall for you at the North Gate of the Ecological Garden! No matter where you go in the future, this stall will always be reserved for you!"

"No, you guys..."

Chen Mo felt dizzy, totally unable to grasp who these people were or understand what they meant.

The leader behind Gao Hong walked up with a hearty smile, "Old Gao, you’re being too zealous, you’re making Little Chen here a bit confused."

Only then did Gao Hong let go of his hand, realizing his overexcitement, and he laughed awkwardly to cover his embarrassment.

"Comrade Xiaochen, I’m Zou Jiming, in charge of Cultural Tourism in Yangzhou City. This is not something that can be explained in a few words, and it’s quite late today. I wonder when you’ll be available tomorrow, so we can come over and have a detailed talk."

Chen Mo replied in a daze, "Tomorrow, after eight, anytime works."

After leaving his contact information with Chen Mo, Zou Jiming signaled that Gao Hong could leave too.

Chen Mo felt utterly baffled. But when unsure, eating always comes first, which has always been Chen Mo’s way of life.

Amidst the countless patrons’ support, Chen Mo quickly packed up his things — basically just piled the used kitchen utensils into the food cart and cleaned up all the kitchen waste.
