Chapter 576: Chapter 558: Don’t Touch My Food—If You’ve Got Guts, Come at Me!

"Is this the place?"

"It should be, I feel like I can already smell the aroma of the food."

"I’ve been to this market before, it’s all vegetables and meat and condiments, never seen ready-to-eat food sold here. If we can smell it now, it must be Boss Wang."

At the entrance of Guanyin Bridge Vegetable Market, a few young figures were excitedly chatting.

They all work nearby and are young people who usually hang out together.

"Let’s go, let’s go. Boss Wang’s food is always in short supply. If we’re late, there might be nothing left to eat."

"I’ve already prepared half a month’s food budget for this. I’ll enjoy it today even if it means eating instant noodles for half a month, hahaha." 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

"You’re something else. I’m planning to use a week’s worth of meal money. Even with instant noodles, I’d add a sausage and pickled veggies to make it tasty."

While chatting, they jogged towards the market and soon spotted Wang Fan’s stall.

The stall was pretty noticeable, mainly because while there was hardly anyone else around, a bunch of gray-haired elderly folks gathered there.

"Sniff..."

The air circulation in the market was somewhat weaker, allowing the aroma of Wang Fan’s food to spread more unabashedly.

You could smell the aroma from the market entrance, but the closer you got to Wang Fan’s stall, the more intense it became.

The young people were fast, but in just a minute or two, several more people ran in as well.

It was like a beehive had been disturbed, and suddenly a swarm of nearby office workers appeared at the market entrance.

Guanyin Bridge is a bustling commercial street, surrounded by many office buildings, and Wudu’s population ranks among the top in the country. Wang Fan wasn’t surprised by the turnout.

But the elderly patrons were quite astonished — when did they ever see so many young people at the market?

Grandpa Jiang said incredulously to Wang Fan, "Young man, are all these people here for you?"

Seeing Grandpa Jiang’s expression, Wang Fan couldn’t help but feel a bit proud, like he’d impressed the elders, saying with a hint of smugness, "I suppose so? I’m not quite sure."

Grandpa Jiang exclaimed, "You’re quite the hidden gem, but with such skills it’s no wonder so many people like your food. The dishes just smell too good."

Wang Fan laughed, "Eat more if you like it."

Grandpa Jiang patted his round belly, "I’ve already eaten twice my usual amount in one go. If I eat any more, I might just pop here. Better not risk it."

Grandpa Jiang’s words made the other elderly folks laugh, "I’m about the same. The young man’s cooking is so delicious that I unknowingly finished everything in my lunchbox."

"While eating, my stomach felt like a bottomless pit. No matter how much I ate, I wasn’t full. It’s the first time I’ve tasted such delicious food."

"Not only is the young man good-looking, but his cooking is also top-notch, and he’s kind-hearted. I wonder which family is blessed to have him."

"Alright, look at all the people at the entrance. Let’s make room."

"Hehe, the food’s sold out today, and I’m full. Let’s rest a bit and then head home."

"Yes, when I get back, I’ll set aside the best-looking veggies for the young man and save them for him tomorrow."

"I’m thinking the same, hehehe."

The elderly folks carefully cleaned up their trash, smiled, greeted Wang Fan, and then headed out.

Once everyone had left, the area around Wang Fan’s stall was almost spotless.

The young diners, in their hurry, suddenly stopped when they saw the elderly, making way for them. They couldn’t afford to bump into them.

As the elderly passed by, they warmly recommended Wang Fan’s food, "You should hurry and eat. The food inside is really delicious. Never in my life have I tasted anything so good."

"You’re in luck today, the young man’s dishes are great, and most importantly, it’s cheap. Go quickly."

"The ingredients are all bought from our market here. We grow the vegetables ourselves, and we watched him cook them, so it’s absolutely clean and sanitary."

"I’ve eaten a full bowl, so eat your fill without worry."

"Alrighty, thank you, grandpas and grandmas. Take care and be safe on your way home."

The young folks cheerfully greeted the elderly, and once they were gone, they continued to rush inside.

When they arrived at the stall, they couldn’t help but widen their eyes at the sign Wang Fan had hung up.

"Oh my goodness, am I seeing this right? 15 yuan for all you can eat??"

"I can’t believe it, is this really Boss Wang’s pricing?"

"I think we might be benefiting from the elder’s patronage. The important part of the sign is the words that follow."

"That seems very likely. This market is where those grandparents often sell vegetables in the morning."

"Oh man, I’m definitely becoming a die-hard fan of Boss Wang. What? You ask why? Because he’s kind!"

The person at the front of the line was a young man in his twenties, with clear and honest eyes, clearly a fresh graduate.

"Brother Wang, Brother Wang, is it true that your food is really 15 yuan per meal? No extra charge? Can I take all meat?"

Shen Bowen had to ask again to confirm.

It was just too hard to believe. You know, ordering a lunch delivery for 20 yuan wouldn’t even get you much meat. This 15 yuan for all you can eat was not only filling but personally made by a super outdoor food boss. Who would believe it’s only 15 yuan?
