Food Stall: Customers Chase Me across the Country-Chapter 409: Wang Fan’s Support Team

"The sky is falling!"

Alimu jogged all the way into the town office, attracting everyone’s attention.

"Meeting, meeting, gather quickly!"

Seeing Alimu in such a hurry, everyone realized something was amiss and rushed into the office in a flurry.

With a solemn face, Alimu said, "My Adasi, there’s bad news to tell you, our Wensu Town’s son-in-law is going to run away!"

"The son-in-law is running away?"

Alimu’s abrupt words left everyone in the town confused.

"What son-in-law?"

"Who’s the son-in-law of our Wensu?"

"I knock, could it be Wang Fan, Mr. Wang?"

"I knock, really? How is it that he’s running away?"

"I wipe, is it true? Have Qianqian and him broken up? Can’t be, I’ve seen them getting along so well! Is it Zhuo Yuanshan breaking them up? I’ll go have a word with him now!"

Seeing everyone finally getting it, Alimu continued, "Yes, it’s Mr. Wang Fan who’s leaving."

Upon his confirmation, everyone in the office became agitated, some even rolling up their sleeves ready to settle accounts with Zhuo Yuanshan.

Some there were classmates with him, some childhood friends, and some had good relationships, but if they found out Zhuo Yuanshan dared destroy a loving couple, they’d be the first to knock Zhuo Yuanshan senseless.

"Is it that bastard Zhuo Yuanshan causing trouble? People should know to be grateful!"

"Wang Fan worked tirelessly selling fish and shrimp for him, and now he’s just going to discard him like that? I, Jian Qiang, won’t agree!"

"Moreover, he selflessly provided the recipe for beef balls, personally taught its making, and finally gave the profits to the poor families in our town. How could Zhuo Yuanshan be so blind to mess around like this? I have three daughters, if necessary, I’ll introduce them all to Wang Fan, can’t let him suffer!"

The crowd was agitated!

Ever since Wang Fan arrived in Wensu Town, his help has been evident. If anyone dares make him suffer, they won’t mind stepping in to let that person know Wang Fan has allies.

Even if it’s his father-in-law, he can’t be wronged!

These people seemed convinced it was Zhuo Yuanshan mistreating Wang Fan, one by one ready to teach Zhuo Yuanshan a lesson.

Alimu hurriedly gestured for calm and said, "Listen to me, it’s not what you think."

Jian Qiang shouted, "We know you two are close, if you can’t do it, let me!"

Alimu angrily said, "Who said he broke up a couple? Let me finish."

After Alimu’s words, the office quieted down a bit, everyone focused on Alimu, waiting for his explanation.

"Just now, Yuanshan told me that Wang Fan is going to Gaul next week to cook for our Olympic athletes, it’s not what you thought with Yuanshan breaking up a couple."

After hearing this, the office fell silent, followed by a collective sigh of relief, as long as there’s no relationship problem!

Only Liu Quan seemed disappointed, he really hoped to introduce his three daughters to Wang Fan.

"Can you not be so dramatic? Isn’t this a good thing?"

"Exactly, I thought Brother Yuanshan had driven him away."

"If Wang Fan goes, they’ll definitely win a few more gold medals."

"Cook more of our Great Border’s hand-grasped rice for the Olympic athletes, they’ll eat well and their performance will improve."

Alimu rubbed his temples and said, "Going to cook for Olympic athletes is certainly good, but our original plan has to be shelved, which is why I’m a bit anxious."

Liu Quan shrugged indifferently, "We’ve lived like this for many years, it won’t hurt to continue for a while longer, the Olympics is only once every four years, it’s for national glory, we should prioritize them."

"Exactly, this is a good time to work on those masters again."

"And focus on developing our beef ball business, fully forming an industry, so when Wang Fan returns, we can show him our results, and hopefully surprise him."

Feeling reassured by the discussions in the office, Alimu was initially worried some people would get upset, but everyone’s high awareness surprised him.

The way he presented was actually for certain people, but it seemed a bit excessive now.

"Everyone’s ideas are good, our development has already seen significant improvement, greed can’t chew everything, we should indeed stabilize things. Moreover, I’ve heard Gaul’s food is terrible, I think it’s necessary for Wang Fan to bring some of our Great Border specialties to bolster those fighting for our nation, what do you think?"

"Absolutely, our Great Border food enhances strength."

"With Great Border’s ingredients combined with Wang Fan’s skills, the athletes will surely feel our Great Border’s passion."

There was no dissenting voice in the office, nor any disagreement, which satisfied Alimu greatly.

"Good, I’ll apply to leadership immediately, can’t let our good son-in-law from Wensu go empty-handed."

...

Another treacherous subject wants to harm me!

Having returned home, Zhuo Yuanshan sneezed several times in a row, a sinister feeling lingering on his back, instinctively sensing malice directed at him.

Reflecting on his recent actions, apart from making his wife howl... cough, cough, cough, all due to the overly potent gifts from that brat Wang Fan!

This rascal, next time he sees him, he has to teach him a lesson!

At this time, Wang Fan was unaware he was on his future father-in-law’s blacklist. He had just seen off Kurban and the others.

Kurban and the others turned back every three steps as they left the kitchen, reluctant to leave without the bowls and chopsticks they just used.

A real eye-opener.

This visit was indeed enlightening for them. They always thought masters were far away, yet unexpectedly, there was one right by their side.

And it wasn’t that they hadn’t considered that with their twenty-plus years of skill, they could earn a master title, right?

But after tasting his dishes, such thoughts were thrown to the back of their minds.

How shameless must one be to have that kind of thought?!

Their skills were nowhere near the master level.

Though practice makes perfect, he not only practiced but also perfected every detail, which, detail by detail, made a great difference in the finished dish.

Celebrating the chance to taste two state banquet dishes was important, but more so was seeing the attitude of a master level individual toward cooking.

The genuine love and seriousness were their most significant takeaways today.

"Though I’m not sure if it’s love for the job, but loving the job you’re in is indeed necessary."

"Right, there’s no particularly extraordinary secret in his cooking, just great attention to every detail, every step done without complaint. If I could have such focus, the taste of my cooking would improve significantly."

"No wonder he has such skills at a young age, the love for cooking is evident even to the blind. Today was truly a valuable lesson for us."

"I’ve decided to practice my knife skills well tonight. You might not have noticed, his cuts were nearly identical, so each ingredient cooks evenly, making the texture better."

"I should try washing ingredients better, the meat’s flavor is well preserved without blanching."

Kurban and others walked and excitedly shared today’s insights, each feeling greatly rewarded, each setting a path for improvement. While their cooking skill won’t suddenly increase, with a goal, they believe their improvement is inevitable.

Even if they can’t reach the level of a state banquet chef, in the small area of Turpan, they must make a name for themselves, or today’s national banquet dishes would be wasted, and they’d feel sorry for Master Wang’s patient explanations!
