CHAPTER 263: CHAPTER 263: IT SEEMS LIKE SOMETHING ONLY BOSS JIANG COULD DO!

Xu Wenling finished her rice noodles, feeling fully contented. She looked at Jiang Feng with anticipation and asked, "Boss Jiang, can I add you on WeChat? If the photo wins an award, I’ll give you half the prize money." Xu Wenling asked straightforwardly.

"Ah? That’s not necessary. If it wins, that would be your well-deserved prize," Jiang Feng replied politely. "I think the photo turned out really well and has a great chance of winning."

Hearing Jiang Feng’s polite refusal, Xu Wenling became even more interested in him. Many people pursued Xu Wenling; she had an air of freedom and ease about her, not to mention a good figure. But she wasn’t Jiang Feng’s type. He still preferred exceptionally pretty, fair-skinned, and slender sweet girls.

Some say adults don’t have to choose; they should want everything. But this, this wasn’t something he wanted all of.

Xu Wenling was somewhat disappointed but still said with a smile, "Boss Jiang, then I hope we meet again! I’ll definitely come back to your stall!"

"Welcome!" Jiang Feng also smiled in response.

After that, Xu Wenling left with her camera, and Jiang Feng continued to run his stall.

Today, among the mountains and wilderness, there were all new faces; after all, visitors who came one day wouldn’t return the next. That was for the best.

Some people still recognized Jiang Feng, and they were pleasantly surprised. They never expected to run into the renowned Boss Jiang in this vast wilderness, where the windmills generated power. Everybody had some snacks and even posted about it on their social media to commemorate the visit. The deliciousness of the snacks received endless praise. Many people came here by car, hungry and with no place nearby to eat. Jiang Feng’s food truck was indeed a tasty supply station. By noon, the day’s vending came to an end.

Having completed the system’s task, Jiang Feng acquired a Wenzhou cuisine recipe and felt happy. The past few days at the stall had been very relaxed. He was earning money while enjoying the scenery, almost like being on a self-driving tour.

However, what was bound to come would eventually arrive.

「After photographer Xu Wenling returned」

She immediately posted a series of photos to her account. These were real pictures taken with a high-definition lens. The most beautiful among them was undoubtedly the one of the food truck amidst the towering mountains. In the photo, verdant mountain ranges were layered upon one another, and giant wind turbines rotated gently. A food truck with billowing steam had a few customers around it, enjoying snacks. It exuded the feeling of a paradise far removed from the mundane world.

Xu Wenling already had many followers, most of whom were photography enthusiasts. Of course, some were old perverts who followed her for her looks and figure, just to see her photos.

Her fans commented on the series of photos:

"So beautiful, the photography is superb!"

"This photo of the food truck has so much charm!"

"I never imagined someone would set up a stall under a wind power station. This stall owner is quite a spot-finder!"

"How does it look like something only Boss Jiang could pull off?"

"I have a feeling this is actually Boss Jiang!"

"I think so too. Boss Jiang’s food truck looks just like this; it’s just hard to see what the person looks like."

The comments section quickly filled up. Many fans praised the artistic quality of the photos. Captured by the high-definition lens, they felt more real, adding to their quality. Some people also felt the food truck looked familiar, as if they had seen it somewhere before.

Detail-oriented netizens began to search for photos of Jiang Feng’s food truck and compared them one by one.

The similarity was 99%.

"This is definitely Boss Jiang!"

"Isn’t he in Hangzhou? Why did he go to a wind farm?"

"Where is this wind farm? I’m going to find him!"

"Blogger, where were these photos taken? It’s urgent!"

Fellow netizens started to ask for the location where the photos were taken.

Xu Wenling saw everyone’s comments and panicked, not expecting people to recognize Jiang Feng’s food truck so quickly. However, she did not reveal where she had taken the photos. She quickly deleted the photo of the food truck, not wanting to bring Jiang Feng any trouble. But traces on the internet are not so easily erased, and the photo soon began to circulate: the small food truck under the wind farm.

The photo was very beautiful and unique, giving off an ethereal feeling of seclusion from the ordinary world. After seeing the photo, many were first amazed by its composition, then they grew curious about the food truck.

What kind of owner would choose to set up a stall in a place like a wind farm? Everyone thought of the same person at once. And then they looked again—it really was him! Unbelievable!

「In Hangzhou」

Many internet celebrities were still rallying online users to search for news about Jiang Feng. These internet celebrities were the driving force behind the "Search for Jiang Feng Squad."

「In the evening」

The photo circulated into the fan group of the live-streamer Fang Hui. A group member shared the photo and asked, "Guys, take a look. Isn’t the food truck in the picture Boss Jiang’s truck?"

The group members opened the photo to full size and examined it closely. Many had seen Jiang Feng’s food truck in Hangzhou, and upon comparing it, they immediately recognized it.

"Absolutely Boss Jiang!"

"It’s him for sure! His food truck is higher-performance than the average one!"

"I knew it was him the moment I saw it!"

"Where did the photo come from? When did this happen?"

The chat group instantly buzzed with activity. The photo itself was well-taken and full of ambiance, and its subject was Jiang Feng, whom everyone was desperately trying to find. Naturally, they were excited.

Live-streamer Fang Hui received a message from his assistant and entered the group to check the situation. Seeing the photo, Fang Hui became excited. He immediately tagged everyone and asked, "Guys, does anyone know where this is? There are so many wind farms in the country. Where has Boss Jiang gone?"

Upon hearing Fang Hui’s words, everyone immediately began to analyze.

"Could he have gone to Tibet, or the Grassland? There should be wind farms there!"

"That mountain is definitely not from Tibet; it’s nearby!"

"Who can tell just by looking at a mountain?"

"Someone on the internet must know!"

Fang Hui’s curiosity about Jiang Feng’s location only grew. Where could this be?

Just then, a group member with the screen name "Amazing Detective Di Renjie" offered his judgment.

"From the photo, the mountains aren’t very high, and the vegetation is mostly shrubs, indicating these are southern mountains, likely nearby. Boss Jiang’s restaurant in Hangzhou is almost done with renovations and should be opening soon. He certainly wouldn’t go too far from Hangzhou. I searched for all the wind farms in the province and compared them one by one. This place should be Wenzhou, Pingyang Xiwan Wind Power Station. He’s at Mount Pingyang!"

Seeing Amazing Detective Di Renjie’s analysis, the group members were awestruck.

"HOLY SHIT! The Amazing Detective has appeared again!"

"Impressive! With those analytical skills, you’re about to deduce the color of Boss Jiang’s underwear!"

"It does seem like Mount Pingyang. I’ve been there!"

"Damn, there’s such a master in the group!"

Fang Hui also saw Di Renjie’s message. He was both surprised and delighted. Who would have thought that in such a mundane fan group, there would be such an impressive Crouching Dragon hidden within? It would be a waste for this person not to become a detective.

As it turned out, Amazing Detective Di Renjie was indeed a retired veteran detective. By coincidence, he had eaten at Jiang Feng’s food stall and thus remembered him. With his many years of experience, he was also able to grasp Jiang Feng’s general character. Lately, many people in Hangzhou had been searching for Jiang Feng, and Di Renjie thought it matched his expertise perfectly, so he joined a popular live stream and shared his analysis. Afterwards, he also joined the group.

There was no other reason; he simply loved finding people. Being retired, it was nice to still find the joy from his working days. However, this time his mission wasn’t to find a criminal but to locate a chef. Quite interesting, indeed.

Fang Hui spoke in the group, "Thanks to the amazing Di Renjie, so impressive! I will go search for Boss Jiang tomorrow!"

Seeing Fang Hui’s words, the group members chimed in:

"Hurry up and find Boss Jiang! Tell him he can’t escape!"

"Remember to secretly install a tracker!"

"HAHAHA, I want to see Boss Jiang’s live stream!"

"The location for his stall this time is really outrageous! With flowers and trees everywhere and not a soul in sight, he still chose to set up there!"

The atmosphere in the group became increasingly lively. This excitement wasn’t limited to Fang Hui’s group. After the photo spread, many live streamers received the news and, through various channels, also learned about Jiang Feng’s stall location. So, the live streamers who got the news first all planned to go to Wenzhou to check it out.

「That very evening」

Including Fang Hui, many people arrived in Wenzhou. The next day was bound to be lively.

Jiang Feng was oblivious to the commotion online; he continued to live his relaxed and leisurely life. That evening, he even tried raw river crab. Raw river crab is exactly what it sounds like: eating raw crabs. The crabs are cleaned, chopped up, arranged on a plate, and then drizzled with a seasoned sauce. Some people love raw foods, like Japanese sashimi or raw shrimp. Those who enjoy such tastes would find raw river crab delicious. However, Jiang Feng’s taste leaned more towards the general public; he preferred cooked food. Hot and freshly cooked food is more comforting to eat. So, after a few bites of raw river crab, Jiang Feng gave up on it. Steamed crab is much tastier.

Therefore, even though he knew the recipe for raw river crab, Jiang Feng didn’t plan to sell it at his stall. It would be better to stick to selling glutinous rice, pig offal noodles, and lean meatballs. In the future, when he opens a restaurant, he could consider adding raw river crab to the menu to satisfy more diners. Jiang Feng also liked to research various cooking methods for different ingredients; it’s always good to try new things. After all, with his reputation on the line, he needed to keep improving himself.

「The next day」

Jiang Feng, as usual, went to the rented place early to prepare ingredients for the stall. The main items for sale today were pig offal noodles and lean meatballs; rice would not be made. Since both pig offal noodles and lean meatballs needed to be boiled, having two pots going was convenient.

Once everything was ready, Jiang Feng started the food truck, took Sun Zhuangfei with him, and drove toward the wind farm. As they drew nearer, the views became increasingly open, and the scenery more beautiful. It was still as tranquil and serene.

But moving further in, Jiang Feng noticed something amiss. The traffic seemed to have increased. More cars were parked along the roadside. Additionally, many people were walking back and forth in the distance, strolling around as if searching for something. Jiang Feng’s initially relaxed expression gradually faded, and his smile disappeared.

Sun Zhuangfei looked into the distance and, seeing the situation, said, "Boss, there are a lot of people here today! They couldn’t have come for us, could they?"

Jiang Feng nodded. "Probably. Even in such a remote place, they still managed to find us. That’s ridiculous!"

As Jiang Feng’s food truck appeared on the mountain road, someone noticed and pointed, shouting, "Look over there! Isn’t that Boss Jiang?"

At these words, many people turned to look in the direction of the food truck.

"It really is him!"

"He’s here! He’s here! He’s driving the food truck over!"

"Sure enough, he’s here! Boss Jiang really knows how to pick his spots!"

"Let’s see what he’s selling this time. Today we should be able to visit successfully!"

Instantly, everyone smiled.
