    The world's first crowdsourcing-driven asian bl novel translation community

    On the first day of the new year, at night.

    After eating dinner, Zhao Zhichen didn't go back to his study as usual, but turned around and walked to the living room, and then sat on the sofa near them under the shocked eyes of his parents.

    Zhao Zhichen grabbed one of the pillows, hugged him in his arms, and moved his buttocks to make himself more comfortable.

    Old Zhao looked at his son in surprise. He knew his son's psychological pressure. In the past, Zhao Zhichen used every minute and every second to study. Since the school holidays, he has been doing "evening self-study" at home regardless of the weather.

    Old Zhao: "Today...isn't it 'night study'?"

    Zhao Zhichen shook his head, looked up at his father: "The meeting is off today."

    He had just made this decision, probably... the moment before he walked up the stairs, he looked back at his parents, and suddenly felt a little sore in his heart.

    The top of my father's head began to gray, and fine lines appeared around the corners of my mother's eyes.

    Today, after all, is the day of family reunion.

    Old Zhao looked at him suspiciously, with an expression on his face whether his son had taken the wrong medicine.Zhao Zhichen met his gaze, the soreness in his heart suddenly disappeared, he grabbed the TV remote control casually: "I'm watching the show."

    "It's good to watch the show, come and watch it together, there should be a party to watch today." Mrs. Zhao said happily.

    The family of three sat on the sofa and watched TV.Zhao Zhichen wanted to tune the TV station to the evening show, but he pressed two buttons, and his fingers suddenly froze.

    On the TV screen is a piece of local news, which is about the food festival held in City A today.

    "Today, a three-day food festival was held in our city. In this event, a total of 873 merchants from across the province came to the scene, bringing together many well-known brands..."

    The host's voice was calm, but the picture on the screen was very cool——

    Following the host's introduction, a high-end long shot shot straight in from the entrance of the branch venue, and then moved forward from the main road in the center of the venue, capturing the lively diners along the road and the shops with unique decorationsgo in.

    "This was taken by that, that drone! I saw it pass over my head today!" Old Zhao said, slapping his thigh.

    "Oh, will we be in there too?" Mrs. Zhao squinted her eyes to search.

    Zhao Zhichen thought to himself, how is it possible, the camera shakes too fast, and you can only see the tops of the heads of the passers-by below, what can you recognize?

    However, he was still inexplicably nervous, staring straight at the screen.

    A few seconds later, the long shot ended, Zhao Zhichen exhaled, and it really didn't.Immediately afterwards, with the voice of the host, the picture on the TV suddenly changed, and the special dishes of various merchants began to be displayed.

    Old Zhao commented while watching: "Oh, I recognize it! That's your Uncle Feng's honey sauce fire recipe. It's a pity that you haven't eaten it today!"

    Old Zhao: "That's Wang Pinlou's sauerkraut fish. I didn't make time to taste it today."

    Old Zhao: "Hey, Luji Bakery's Bazhen Cake is also very good. It's a time-honored brand. Let's get some to keep in good health."

    The screen is full of delicacies. If there is a bullet screen, Zhao Zhichen guesses that the screen will be full of sentences like "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

    However, he had just had dinner, and his stomach was full. No matter how beautiful the picture on the screen was, it was difficult for him to regain his appetite.

    The same is true for Lao Zhao and Mrs. Zhao. They watched the food scene on TV peacefully, with a smile on their lips and a relaxed expression.

    until

    Suddenly appeared on the screen... a golden, oily and plump chicken.

    "Chicken! Chicken!" Old Zhao stared at the screen, pointing at the screen, "Feng Qianguan's chicken!"

    Zhao Zhichen was also excited all of a sudden, the scene in front of him instantly evoked his memory of Beggar Chicken.In the shot, a pair of plain hands wearing gloves cut the knife precisely, and the beggar chicken was cut open, revealing the treasures hidden inside.

    In the background sound, there seemed to be cheers from the diners in amazement, and the aroma seemed to come out through the screen.

    Zhao Zhichen pressed his stomach painfully.

    Well, he wasn't really full either.

    The picture about Beggar Chicken flashed by, and the time allocated by the TV station for the food festival was only a few tens of seconds, and soon, the whole news was over.

    Zhao Zhichen sat on the sofa and was stunned for a while. He didn't think of changing the channel until another news item was broadcast. He pressed twice to switch to the party channel. After putting down the remote control, his mind still lingered...that chicken.

    Zhao Zhichen simply took out his mobile phone.There was no sound in the class, so everyone was probably concentrating on celebrating the festival.He struggled for a while, opened the X blog, entered Food Festival and searched.

    He has a hunch...

    Sure enough, after swiping down, within a few minutes, several netizens posted golden and bright pictures.

    [@大胖粥减进Failure: Chicken!!!Our Boss Ginger's Chicken!!!Just now when my parents were watching the news in the living room, I passed by, and I caught my eye among a bunch of goblins!This color is so perfect and so artistic, and after a closer look, it really is our Boss Jiang's chicken!![Picture.jpg][Picture.jpg]]

    Big Fat Porridge posted two blurry pictures, probably taken with a mobile phone on the TV, the light is a bit distorted, but you can vaguely see the bright golden appearance of the beggar's chicken oil.

    [@干饭小甜甜: My God!Look what I just found watching TV!Boss Ginger's Chicken!Hurry up and give our Boss Jiang some noodles!Today I went to the grand ceremony with my boyfriend. It was absolutely amazing. I wanted to sell myself to work in Feng Qianguan on the spot, okay?![News Screen.jpg][Beggar Chicken.gif]]

    The picture quality of this netizen’s mobile phone is better than that of the last netizen. It may be that a filter has been added. The picture of Beggar Chicken is more similar to the original version, and there are shiny cross star stickers dotted beside it.And the other picture she sent was probably taken at the scene during the day. A gray-green lotus leaf was spread out in a paper bowl with the "Feng Qianguan" logo on it. On the lotus leaf was a quarter of plumpLittle Three Yellow Chicken.

    In the moving picture, an immigrant hand pinches the bone of the chicken leg, twists it lightly, and the chicken leg is torn off.

    Zhao Zhichen clicked into the comments, and sure enough, there were a lot of retweets and comments.

    【Ah ah ah ah ah!This texture is amazing!!When I wanted to queue today, Feng Qianguan has already closed the stall!】

    [I heard that there are big foodies in the afternoon who are full of praise for this chicken, is it true?But it looks really delicious!】

    [It's over, I actually saw a chicken...beautiful?!Is there something wrong with me or is there something wrong with this chicken?】

    The first day of the food festival just ended, and many netizens were still waiting to see if they would go to the festival. When they searched for the festival and planned to see the scene, they saw some golden pictures at the same time.

    Immediately afterwards, netizens searched through the comments under the picture, and soon found Feng Qianguan's official account. There was no information about Jiaohuaji on the account, and the latest one was the location map of the merchant's booth at the festival.

    However, scrolling down, the netizens who passed by were unprepared... shocked by the high-definition shooting of Yan Duxian.

    Many people in front of the screen got up one after another to have a late-night snack.

    ...

    At nine o'clock in the evening, it was Su Luo's live broadcast time.

    He is a food anchor on a video website. After graduating from university, he struggled for several years. During this period, he took many detours, and finally found a style that suits him, and accumulated millions of fans.

    On the first day of the new year, Su Luo did not stay at home, but came to City A at night.The food festival not only uses traditional methods for publicity, but also new channels. This time, the festival invited several well-known food anchors from video sites, and Su Luo was one of them.

    At night, after the plane landed, Su Luo rushed to the reserved hotel.After putting away his luggage, he opened the live broadcast room as usual.

    [Lolo Happy New Year!This year's Lolo is as cute as ever~]

    [Luo Luo Happy New Year!Let's work hard this year!]

    [Did you say you were going to participate in the food festival in province A?Lolo has already arrived in City A?]

    Su Luo greeted with a smile. He didn't have kitchen utensils at hand today, and he didn't plan to mess around with anything. He just planned to chat with fans before ending the live broadcast.

    Su Luo: "Yeah, I've already arrived in City A, and tomorrow I'm going to the legendary food festival where big bosses gather! I heard that Mr. Hong is going today, oh my god, I think I can be in the same venue with him!mentality began to accelerate.”

    [Master Hong, who is that?]

    [Stupid, Mr. Hong is a well-known gourmet in China, and he is also a visiting professor at our university~]

    Immediately, fans popularized science on the barrage.

    Su Luo answered a few words with a smile, and asked again: "By the way, do you have anything you want to see? You can post it in the comments. I will try to get around tomorrow."

    [Lolo, take your pick, trust your taste!]

    [There are more than 800 merchants, I won’t go to see them, let’s go where there are more people tomorrow!]

    [Well, I heard that Jixianglou is a time-honored brand in City A, try it?]

    There was a rush of ideas on the barrage, and most of the names mentioned were Su Luo's homework, but suddenly, he caught an unfamiliar name.

    [Lolo!!Must go to Feng Qianguan!!!I saw a picture of it in our city news just now, my God, I was about to cry!!]

    [The friend in front is also in City A?!I saw it too!That color is absolutely stunning, like topaz!Lolo, I sent the screenshot to your account as a comment, you can take a look!]

    [I went to check, Feng Qianguan's boss turned out to be the female chef that Lu Jiashu forwarded before, the little elder sister is so beautiful!]

    The bullet screen was full of chatter, Su Luo clicked on the comment, swiped it, and saw a golden beggar chicken.

    It's really... very beautiful!

    Su Luo nodded, and wrote down the name: "Okay, I remember, I will go around to Feng Qianguan tomorrow to have a look."

    ...

    The next day, after Su Luo got up, he changed into a light brown coat, wore a sheepskin check scarf, and scratched his hair to make a handsome hairstyle before going out with the live broadcast equipment.

    It is said to be a device, but it is actually a mobile phone with a selfie stick attached.There are also requirements for live broadcasting at this kind of venue-you can take pictures of diners in a large area, and you can take pictures of the stalls of the merchants, but try to avoid the surrounding diners and not disturb the tourists.

    When he arrived at the venue of the grand ceremony, there were already docking staff waiting for him.Su Luo took a sign with "Guest" hanging around his neck, and walked into the venue.

    Except for some online celebrity shops, Jixianglou is the most popular.Su Luo went to venue B first and found the booth of Jixianglou.

    As a well-known and time-honored brand in Province A, coupled with the advertising that the Jiang family has invested heavily in, there is indeed a large circle of tasters outside the Jixiang Building.Su Luo waited for a long time before he came to the front.

    After he greeted a chef in the booth, he started filming.The chef didn't say anything when he saw the "guest" sign hanging around his neck.

    Su Luo: "The dishes here are so exquisite! My God, is this really a dish that I can eat for tens of yuan? This mapo tofu is only 20 yuan, and camphor tea duck is 40 yuan—it is said that it is the same in Jixianglou.For the dishes, a zero must be added after the price! Today is really a big profit!"

    Su Luo ordered a portion of Mapo Tofu and Camphor Tea Duck, and was full of praise when the live broadcast room was full of shouts of "You put poison".

    Su Luo: "The tofu is hot, hempy, crispy, spicy, and the aroma is very strong. I feel like I am overwhelmed. It's really good. The meat of the camphor tea duck is also very tender, especially the aroma of camphor wood and tea leaves is very unique.".”

    After Su Luo tasted Jixianglou, he circled around Area A again, passing by all the merchants planned last night. After the circle, his belly was already slightly bulging.

    Su Luo: "Help! The food on site is so delicious, I'm full! What should I do? I still haven't visited three districts!"

    The bullet screen was full of "Ah, ah, no!", "Luoluo has only been broadcast for an hour, and you want to run away!", "Luoluo, you have to be worthy of Party A! What if Party A doesn't give you a life in the future?manage?".

    Su Luo thought for a while and said, "Then I'll go to Section A again. Sections C and D will go tomorrow with a stomach in their stomachs!"

    Ten minutes later, Su Luo arrived at venue A. Before he arrived at the merchant's booth, he first turned the camera on himself.

    The audience in the live broadcast room only saw that after he moved forward a few steps, a look of shock suddenly appeared on his face.

    Su Luo: "I'll go!"

    He turned the camera around and showed it to the audience in the live broadcast room: "Oh my God, what's going on, there's such a long queue! There are still a lot of people crowded in front!"

    This seems to be more prosperous than the auspicious building!

    The barrage in the studio was calling him to queue up.

    So Su Luo stood at the end of the line without hesitation.When queuing up, there were diners nearby, and the merchants couldn't be photographed, so Su Luo simply cut off the screen and inserted a picture of his personal Q version image in the live broadcast room.

    He explained the situation to the audience in the live broadcast room. After explaining, he suddenly saw a girl in red Hanfu turn around.

    Girl: "Help! Lolo, I actually saw you! I was watching your live broadcast just now, what a coincidence!"

    Su Luo was also stunned. He has millions of fans in the live broadcast room, and many of his fans are food lovers. It is really possible to be recognized in such a grand ceremony.

    However, it is indeed a coincidence.

    Su Luo greeted the girl.

    The girl was a little shy, she didn't speak after the initial excitement, and turned to chat with her best friend in a low voice.

    Su Luo lined up for a meeting, and after about ten minutes, he finally arrived at Feng Qianguan's booth.

    After he greeted one of the staff, he started shooting, first taking pictures of the entire decoration of Feng Qianguan.The decoration of Feng Qianguan is very colorful and fancy. People who like it like it very much, and those who don't feel it really don't.

    Su Luo politely boasted a few words, but in fact he had already started to lose his mind——after approaching the booth, he was enveloped by a tormenting fragrance.

    Su Luo looked at the screen seriously: "You don't know, the position where I am standing now is simply too fragrant! The scent of beggar chicken is already strong, but this store's is even stronger. The smell is like a small hook, hookingI'm hungry!"

    Barrage:

    "Didn't you just say you were full?"

    "Wake up! Recall how many things you stuffed into your stomach in Area B!"

    "Who just wanted to slip away because he was too full?"

    Seeing the barrage, Su Luo blushed for a while: "It's just talking. Forget it, let's ignore this topic. I'll give you a good shot of this chicken."

    Su Luo: "I just discovered that there was originally a free tasting area in front of me, but it seems to exist in name only now. The waiter will add some chicken shreds to it regularly, but the front of the tasting area is already full of tourists who want to buyIt's—yes, I'm talking about people like me."

    He pointed the camera at the booth, just in time to capture the scene of Jiang Ci opening the Beggar Chicken.

    On the screen, the girl holds an iron-gray kitchen knife with her slender, white fingers, and her delicate cheeks are softly illuminated by the glazed lamp.She bent her arms and knocked on the clod in front of her.

    "Wow!" the nearby diners cheered excitedly.

    Su Luo was taken aback by the sound in his ears. He had actually heard it just now, but when the distance was relatively far away, the cheers were not as shocking.

    But he also knew why - a strong aroma came out of the crack in the yellow mud, instantly occupying his sense of smell.

    Su Luo: "It smells so good!"

    The girl began to disassemble the chicken, her movements were smooth and accurate, and very fast.Su Luo still wanted to take a picture, but he was bumped by some anxious diners. He staggered two steps, screaming in his heart—but he must not fall, he was not sure whether the wooden fence around Feng Qianguan stall could support ithis weight.

    Just as he was worried, a force came from his wrist.

    "Thank you, thank you."

    Su Luo found himself being supported, he looked up blankly, and the lens in his hand subconsciously lifted——

    Then, in Su Luo's live broadcast room, a wave of screams suddenly broke out.

    【Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!So handsome, so handsome, so handsome!Mom, I'm in love, who is this!】

    【Oh my god, this bone, this figure, this angle!Lolo is awesome!】

    [This face is a king, it's so simple!】

    【Help Lolo, how did you find the angle? It's too amazing, he's looking down at me!】

    In the picture, the man's handsome face flashed past.

    After Qi Yan helped the diners who almost fell, he said "be careful", and then raised his voice to maintain order in the team.He was tall, and his expression was not fierce, but he carried an imposing manner, and the diners who had just been pushed and shoved stood up in an instant.

    Su Luo touched his heart and returned to the team. Looking at the live broadcast room, he almost vomited blood.

    In just these two seconds, his fans started climbing the wall?

    ...

    Su Luo lined up in a complicated mood, and after a while, it was finally his turn.After a long wait in the aroma, his desire for beggar chicken has reached its peak. At this time, he took the paper bowl from the clerk, feeling so excited that he wanted to sing aloud.

    Su Luo paid the money, walked away a few meters, and went to a place with less traffic to shoot and taste.

    The chicken is soft and smooth, with dripping soup, it is effortless to bite, and the charming aroma keeps overflowing with chewing.

    The shredded shiitake mushrooms are soft and juicy, and the ham is salty and delicious. Su Luo took several mouthfuls before remembering to comment.

    "This chicken is amazing! The chicken is wrapped in yellow mud and lotus leaves, the water is not lost at all, the taste is very full, and the meat is incredibly tender! And chewing carefully, you can taste the fragrance of lotus leaves, and...A little mellow wine taste! It may be flower carvings, I'm not sure." Su Luo guessed.

    He squinted his eyes and savored the food in his mouth carefully: "The taste of the side dishes inside... I really don't know how to describe it, it's so fragrant, the shiitake mushrooms are made of fresh shiitake mushrooms, very soft and tender, full of soup,The sweet chestnuts are sweet, soft, and very mellow. There are also very rich spices in it, but they are not conflicting, irritating or disobedient, and the taste of stewed with ham and other seasonings has fully penetrated into the chicken."

    Su Luo was completely engrossed in the delicacy, and didn't notice that many exclamation marks had been swiped in the live broadcast room following his description.

    【okay!Stop talking!!I already know how delicious this chicken is by looking at your expression!!】

    [I've never seen Luo Luo's expression before, are you dizzy?】

    【Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow!I want to try it too!】

    A quarter of a chicken is not much. After eating for a while, Su Luo looked at the paper bowl with heartache...it was completely empty.

    Even the condiments were eaten by him.

    Su Luo licked his lips uncomfortably, and commented: "How should I put it, when I came to the festival today, I thought that Jixianglou was the pinnacle, and their mapo tofu is really delicious. But I just tasted this beggar's chicken, I feel that I have reached the peak again—”

    As Su Luo was speaking, he suddenly heard a sneer from the side.

    Su Luo: "?"

    He turned around, was stunned for two seconds, and said in surprise, "Mr. Hong!"

    There were several diners standing in front of them, and the face in the middle was quite familiar, wasn't it the famous Mr. Hong?!

    In fact, it was not Mr. Hong who sneered, but the person standing beside him, but Su Luo only recognized Mr. Hong's face, so he called out like that.

    He didn't turn the camera around, and the audience in the live broadcast room could only ask anxiously: "What's going on? What happened?" "Did I hear you right, Lolo, did you meet Mr. Hong?!"

    Su Luo replied blankly: "Yes, yes, I...I seem to see the real old Mr. Hong! There are other people beside me, my God, is that Milos?"

    Su Luo mentioned several names one after another, all of whom were well-known gourmets.

    Mr. Hong and his party did not participate in the official commentary activity today, they came here quietly, without reporters.

    He heard the young man in front of him calling himself, and nodded politely: "Hello."

    Su Luo was flattered: "It's really you! I, I have read a lot of your food reviews since I was in middle school. The writing is great and has a lot of culture!"

    Old Mr. Hong smiled: "I'm very honored."

    The old man has a refined temperament, and Su Luo relaxes. After all, he is an anchor with millions of fans, and he has seen some troubles.He asked curiously: "Is there anything ridiculous about what I just said?"

    The person who laughed realized that his laughter had been heard, and regretted a little: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to laugh at you. The dishes of Jixianglou and Feng Qianguan are not at the same level. You can take themIn comparison, it is indeed..."

    He didn't go on, but the meaning was obvious.

    Mr. Hong raised his eyebrows and said nothing, which was his tacit consent.

    Su Luo came to his senses, in fact, the man didn't say which restaurant was better at the end, but the taste he ate just now...

    Well, don't get me wrong.

    Mr. Hong and his party turned and left, and Su Luo said goodbye politely.

    After leaving Feng Qianguan's booth, Su Luo walked around Area B again, picked a few booths, and finished the live broadcast one by one before completing the day's work.

    After the broadcast, Su Luo returned the "guest" card to the staff, stretched himself, and went back to the hotel to rest tiredly.

    at the same time.

    His live broadcast video is being forwarded from an angle that he hadn't thought of.

    In a corner of the branch venue, a girl in red Hanfu stared blankly at the screen. After a while, she grabbed the arm of her best friend and let out a suppressed scream.

    Girlfriend: "What are you doing??"

    "Chicken! Beggar Chicken!" The girl said incoherently, "Can you believe it, just now the CEO who has tens of millions every minute handed me a Beggar Chicken! Why is Feng Qianguan so magical?!"

    Girl: "This is the most expensive chicken I've ever eaten in my life!!"

    Whoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
