CHAPTER 48: CHAPTER 48 THIS BOSS IS REALLY CONSCIENTIOUS!

Jiang Feng scooped the fried rice into a meal box, grabbed some disposable chopsticks, and prepared the buns and tea eggs that Liu Bao had ordered before handing them over to him.

Jiang Feng’s movements while making the fried rice were incredibly smooth and enjoyable. His expression was indifferent, his hands skilled and fast, creating an almost serene and effortless impression. This entire scene was captured by the live broadcast camera.

The audience in the live-streaming room was instantly full of admiration.

[Wow, the boss makes fried rice so fast!]

[Definitive proof, he’s a fast man!]

[So skilled, it was done in the blink of an eye!]

[Guys, look at that plate of fried rice, it looks so fragrant!]

Liu Bao and his cousin were also somewhat surprised. It’s done just like that? So fast! A master, this person is definitely a master!

Liu Bao, carrying the fried rice and buns he had bought, and his cousin hurried towards the back. They had rushed here and were already starving. The fragrance of the fried rice Jiang Feng had just cooked made them even more eager, wishing to taste it urgently.

Jiang Feng continued to be busy with his business.

Liu Bao and his cousin had returned to the car, set up the camera, and were ready to taste the buns. There were already 1,200 people in the live-streaming room. It was now almost eight o’clock in the morning, which was remarkably early for so many people to be watching.

[Brother Bao, taste it quickly!]

[That fried rice looks so fragrant!]

The audience in the live-streaming room was already urging them on.

Liu Bao hesitated no further, took out the fried rice first, opened the meal box, and picked up the chopsticks.

He said to the netizens in the live-streaming room, "I kid you not, this fried rice smells exceptionally fragrant, and the scrambled egg flavor is both fresh and tender!

"Take a close look, the eggs are fried into a fluffy texture, almost spread over the rice.

"The rice is already gleaming with oil, and the golden color of the eggs is reflected.

"From my angle, this plate of fried rice looks like it’s made of gold.

"This must be the ultimate golden fried rice!

"Don’t be fooled by the casual cooking earlier; there’s a lot of skill involved!

"You can’t make it without real talent."

Liu Bao boasted about the fried rice for a while.

[Brother Bao, your line delivery has really improved!]

[It does look good, all shiny. Fried rice can be this beautiful!]

[If I hadn’t watched the whole process live, I wouldn’t believe it was made just by frying a few times like that.]

The audience commented one after another.

As he was speaking, the sound of someone shoveling rice could be heard from the side. Liu Bao looked over; his cousin was holding a meal box, swiftly sending rice into his mouth with chopsticks. He kept eating without talking and made smacking noises while chewing.

Liu Bao immediately turned the phone’s camera towards his cousin.

"Let me show you what it’s like to have an assistant who isn’t paying attention," Liu Bao said.

His cousin, engrossed in eating and caught by surprise by the camera, paused slightly. Then, he shifted his position, turning his back to the camera, and continued to shovel down the fried rice. Even so, he didn’t put down the fried rice.

The audience in the live-streaming room laughed out loud at the sight.

Liu Bao shook his head, stopped minding him, turned the camera back, and began to taste the fried rice himself.

He took a bite of fried rice. After chewing a few times, Liu Bao immediately showed a satisfied expression.

"It’s very savory; the egg texture is great, both smooth and tender," he began.

"The rice is jasmine rice. During the steaming process, they deliberately added a bit more water, making the rice moist and tender without being mushy. In the process of frying, the moisture in the rice was released and then fully combined with the eggs.

"The texture while chewing is all soft.

"I’ve never had such fragrant soft rice!"

Liu Bao kept eating and explaining.

Seeing Liu Bao’s expression, the viewers’ mouths started watering involuntarily.

[Damn, this live-stream is making me so hungry!]

[Is the fried rice really that delicious?]

[That must be a lie, I don’t believe it!]

[I’ve already ordered a serving of fried rice on Meituan! No matter which restaurant it’s from, if it’s not this delicious, I will hold you accountable!]

The barrage of comments kept rolling in.

Liu Bao continued to shovel in mouthfuls of fried rice and swiftly finished it all. He was already hungry, and having tasted such fragrant fried rice, he couldn’t care less about explaining anymore. Eating comes first!

His cousin had already finished the fried rice and was now taking buns out from the bag.

"Hold on a sec," Liu Bao said, stopping his cousin while still shoveling down the egg fried rice.

The audience in the live stream couldn’t get enough of these two.

Liu Bao ate at lightning speed, devouring the egg fried rice, his mouth glistening with oil. Anyone watching him would feel their stomach grumbling! It looked absolutely delicious!

Many viewers pulled out their phones, opened their food delivery apps, and ordered themselves some egg fried rice. However, the egg fried rice from delivery often tended to be a bit dry, with a lacking amount of egg, falling far short of the taste of Jiang Feng’s creation.

Liu Bao polished off a bowl of fresh and fragrant egg fried rice.

"Awesome!" he exclaimed. "So tasty! The ingredients are all top-notch, and so is the cooking technique. In a five-star restaurant, they might sell this kind of egg fried rice for 80 yuan a dish."

Liu Bao remarked with feeling.

The netizens thought he was exaggerating. Where would you find egg fried rice for 80 yuan!

But reality is often more exaggerated than one might imagine.

Liu Bao reached into the bag again and took out a plump, well-filled bun. Holding the bun up to the live stream camera, he said to the viewers, "Look how big this bun is.

"I can hardly hold it in one hand.

"Squeeze it and it bounces back; the filling inside is really substantial."

Liu Bao pinched the bun a little.

Seeing his action, question marks flooded the live stream.

Netizens: ?????

[Hey, something’s a bit off with your live stream, host!]

[Is it really that bouncy?]

[I want to squeeze the bun too!]

[You’d better be talking about the bun!]

The comments were buzzing.

At this moment, Liu Bao brought the bun to his lips and took a bite. He chose a beef bun. Jiang Feng had prepared the meat to perfection, resulting in a beef bun that was extremely chewy. With every chew, juice from the meat oozed out, mixing with the scent of the bun dough and exploding with flavor in his mouth.

"Mmm, also very tasty!" Liu Bao exclaimed. "Look at this meat filling—so substantial! Five yuan each, such a bargain!"

He aimed the bun’s filling at the camera, then said with admiration, "No wonder this boss is so popular; with business this good, it’d be strange if he *didn’t* become a hit!"

When the netizens saw the thin bun skin stuffed with tightly packed beef and a hint of broth seeping through, their eyes practically popped out.

[Man, this boss is really fair!]

[Five yuan each is so conscientious!]

[I’m going to check it out tomorrow too!]

[I plan to go as well!]

Liu Bao was eating blissfully, gobbling up the beef bun in just a few bites. He had eaten a lot and was feeling full, but even then, he couldn’t resist the buns left in the bag. His cousin was eating even faster than him, wolfing down the food nonstop.

Liu Bao picked up a pork bun next. After tasting it, a different flavor filled his mouth, yet it was equally satisfying.

"So delicious!" he marveled. "This little shop is incredible!

"No wonder everyone calls him Executive Chef Jiang; his skills truly deserve the title of executive chef!"

Liu Bao expressed his genuine amazement.

The number of viewers in the live stream kept growing. Watching a food broadcast or a restaurant review is all about seeing the host’s reaction while eating and whether they can pique the audience’s interest. Liu Bao’s expressions were genuine—every part of his face shouted how amazing the bun tasted. The viewers started to get envious, attracting even more people to watch.

Quite a few people were planning to go to the mountains for buns tomorrow. Jiang Feng’s little stall was about to welcome another wave of new customers.
