Daddy's Gourmet Shop-Chapter 361 - 351: Jammed Again!
Traffic Police Second Brigade.
Traffic policeman Wang Zhoubin saw it was nearing noon, so he called out to his good partner, "Lin Hai, let’s head over there and see if we need to manage the traffic."
"Right, let’s go check it out."
Upon hearing this, Sun Linhai’s eyes lit up, and he knowingly nodded.
The two picked up their hats and prepared to head out.
A colleague noticed and greeted them with a smile, "Zhou Bin, Lin Hai, where are you two off to patrol?"
Wang Zhoubin replied with a smile, "Where else? West City Old Street! That stretch is the most congested."
Hearing this, the other colleagues understood immediately and joked:
"I bet you guys are really going there to eat, not to patrol."
"Yeah, you’re just using the patrol as an excuse to go eat!"
"Exactly, it’s just around 10:40 now, not even eleven yet! Even if it’s going to be congested, it’ll be during the lunch rush when people get off work and head to Delicious Restaurant for food."
"When I passed by West City Old Street around this time a few days ago, I didn’t see any traffic jams. The cars were parked quite properly! I think you two are being sneaky..."
Wang Zhoubin explained, "You guys don’t know, do you? Around noon, West City Old Street is definitely congested. Don’t ask why, just ask because..."
Before he could finish his sentence,
a phone rang abruptly in the distance.
It caught the attention of the group and interrupted his words.
A colleague quickly picked up the phone in front of him, "Hello."
Hearing the voice from the other end, his eyes widened in shock and he exclaimed, "Oh... it’s jammed again... okay, I got it, we’ll send someone over to manage it..."
After hanging up, the colleague felt a bit frustrated.
If this were before, a big question mark would have appeared in his mind: Traffic jam on West City Old Street? Could the person be giving a false alarm?
After all, they’ve been patrolling this area for years.
They know which roads have the highest traffic.
Which roads are prone to accidents.
In his mind, everything is crystal clear.
What kind of place is West City Old Street?
Although it’s a famous old street, the roads there are quite wide, with two-way lanes, and it hardly has enough foot traffic during lunch hours to cause a jam.
If there was an accident, that’d be understandable, but saying it’s a traffic jam is really a stretch.
But those were thoughts from before!
Ever since tasting the food at Delicious Restaurant, and after receiving several police calls about jams on West City Old Street, he completely believed the stories about how busy Delicious Restaurant is, and he fully believed the congestion issue on West City Old Street.
He just sighed slightly to himself:
A colleague, puzzled and curious, asked, "Which road is jammed?"
"Oh, a citizen called to report that the traffic on West City Old Street is jammed again and we need to send someone to manage it."
Having composed himself, he told the inquiring colleague this and then turned to Wang Zhoubin and Sun Linhai, saying, "Zhou Bin, Lin Hai, weren’t you two going to patrol West City Old Street? Then go quickly..."
What the hell~
West City Old Street is really jammed...
The other colleagues were both surprised and instantly understood who the real culprit of the congestion was.
Delicious Restaurant!
By the way, what did Boss Huang do this time?
How did he attract so many people and cause this street to be jammed again?
For Wang Zhoubin and Sun Linhai, having witnessed and experienced this, it was easy to understand what was going on, even with their toes.
Moreover, they’d just glanced at Delicious Restaurant’s official Weibo account and learned that Boss Huang released a noon special preview.
Two new items, no less!
The car owners causing the traffic jam were definitely coming for these two new items.
After all, every time Delicious Restaurant introduces new dishes, it brings customers into a frenzy, wanting to taste them first.
Whether they manage to buy it or not!
Oh!
This damned group mentality!
While thinking this, Wang Zhoubin and Sun Linhai felt quite happy.
This way, they would have more legitimate reasons to go on their mission, preventing their colleagues from whining jealously.
They nodded with smiles at each other, "Alright, we’ll head over now."
Before leaving, Wang Zhoubin smiled and said to the colleagues who were teasing him earlier, "See, see, didn’t I say so? West City Old Street is definitely jam-packed at noon. Now you can see I wasn’t wrong!"
The colleagues showed a slightly embarrassed but polite smile, "You’re still the prophetic one, Zhoubin!"
"Of course, alright, we’ll head off first..."
Wang Zhoubin gladly accepted, waved them goodbye, and headed out of the hall.
Some colleagues looked at their retreating figures with a bit of envy and quickly shouted, "Hey, when you’re done patrolling and go get some food, remember to bring me back a bento of braised meat rice from the restaurant. It’d be great if there’s new braised meat rice, if not then any braised meat rice will do, you decide..."
"Me too, me too, anything from Delicious Restaurant will do for me."
"Zhoubin, remember to bring me something to eat too~"
Got it!
They’re being treated like food delivery guys!
"Alright, if they have it, we’ll bring you all a portion back, if not, there’s nothing we can do, don’t blame us then. After our patrol, there’s barely anything left when we queue," he said.
Having said this, the two hopped on their motorcycles and headed towards West City Old Street.
Soon, the two appeared on West City Old Street.
Looking at the entire old street, it was once again crowded like a twisted worm.
The sound of car horns continuously blared from end to end.
This traffic jam was even worse than on previous new release days!
Sun Linhai was taken aback and couldn’t help but say, "Why does it feel like there are even more cars today than on previous release days?"
"Look, it’s all jammed up with not a crack to be seen."
"Isn’t that a Cayenne by the roadside?"
"And there’s an S-Class nearby!"
"These rich people... they even come here just to queue up and eat... don’t they need to work?"
Wang Zhoubin chuckled, "If you have money, what haven’t you eaten? They must be smitten by Boss Huang’s cooking to drive all the way here, and besides, those driving luxury cars are probably CEOs or bosses themselves, so their schedules are more flexible than the average office worker."
"I heard there are even quite a few rich second-generation from neighboring Jiang City queuing up in supercars. They moved here just to eat Boss Huang’s food, and the two waiters in the shop started working there after being captivated by the food."
But if it were up to him, he’d probably do the same!
Talking, they both got off their bikes.
One went to one side, the other to the opposite side, directing the traffic.
Of course, for those parked illegally, they didn’t issue tickets immediately as they did the first time.
Instead, they advised them not to park randomly and to move their cars quickly.
If they didn’t heed the advice or left their contact information but still didn’t come to move their car after being called, then they’d issue a ticket.
After all, everyone was a customer of Delicious Restaurant, better to leave room for future encounters!
Moreover, they had been treated by the shop’s customers several times, and were lucky enough to get a share once their patrol was over.
This bit of goodwill, they’d definitely keep in mind.
