Protagonist:

Lu Feng

The hall instantly erupted.

The voices of these twenty people were livelier than when the restaurant was packed with diners during previous business hours.

Qin Ye shook his fan while looking at Liu Zhen Guo beside him and joked with a smile: "You old boy can finally satisfy your cravings today; later, be careful not to eat so much you can't walk, we old bones won't be able to carry you."

Zhao Zhenhui also smiled and said to his wife Zhou Yaqin beside him: "Usually when coming to Lu Boss's place, we have to think carefully before deciding what to eat; today we can finally eat our fill, it was truly worth the trip."

Among those who came today, there were real estate moguls like Lin Yiming with considerable wealth, company general managers like Zhao Zhenhui who spent freely, and people like Qin Ye and his friends who lacked nothing in food and drink.

Even Hu Xiaoyun and Hu Daye and the others, now that they had stable income, no longer found it difficult to eat at Lu Feng's shop.

None of them couldn't afford the things in Lu Feng's shop; whether they had money or not actually didn't matter to them.

But what excited everyone wasn't simply eating a free meal here.

It was Lu Feng's intention in specially inviting them.

After all, Lu Feng's little shop had always had clear rules.

Being able to be invited by him to eat was itself a very face-giving thing.

Moreover, coming here today they could also enjoy a rare feast to their heart's content, simply like a dream.

"Alright, everyone start ordering."

After everyone's excited fervor subsided a little, Lu Feng smiled and greeted everyone, then turned and walked toward the counter.

Hu Xiaoyun saw this and immediately trotted over: "Boss, let me take your orders!"

Although this wasn't official business hours, she didn't need to be a waiter in the shop.

But thinking that Lu Feng had specially invited both herself and her grandfather, and that so many people had come today.

She couldn't just watch the boss busy himself alone.

Hu Xiaoyun skillfully operated the computer, her eyes bright as she waited for everyone to come order dishes.

The atmosphere in the hall instantly became lively.

Everyone's chatting and laughter, mixed with ordering sounds, rose and fell in the hall.

Although Lu Feng announced there were no restrictions on ordering today at noon, everyone wasn't as crazy as he had expected.

Xiao Feilong rolled up his sleeves with shining eyes, originally wanting to order every single food on the menu one by one.

Unexpectedly, Gu Manman beside him tugged his arm and said softly to him: "You restrain yourself a bit later; Lu Boss rarely treats us to a meal, don't order recklessly like last time at the buffet, don't tire Lu Boss out!"

Xiao Feilong scratched his head, thinking what she said made sense.

In the end he only ordered Lion's Head, Pig Trotter Noodles, and a steamer of xiaolongbao.

Everyone seemed to have the same idea; twenty people together averaged less than three dishes per person.

It wasn't that everyone didn't want to eat more, but today Lu Feng was treating them to a meal, and seeing him busy alone in the kitchen, no one could bear to make him too tired.

But what they didn't know was that Lu Feng had already made full preparations for this banquet.

After notifying everyone in the morning, he drove to Food Street, and had long prepared the ingredients.

Including various ingredients that needed to be stewed in advance, half of them had already been prepared before everyone came to the shop.

Not long after, dish after dish, fragrant and steaming hot, was served to the tables.

In the spacious hall, everyone's chatting and laughter, the clinking of bowls and chopsticks, and occasional exclamations intertwined, making this meal extremely lively.

Although there was no alcohol on the table, the various delicacies on the table had already surpassed the level of any five-star hotel.

Unknowingly, this extremely thoughtful banquet gradually drew to a close.

When everyone put down their bowls and chopsticks, everyone had satisfied smiles on their faces.

The bowls and plates on the table were all eaten clean, not even a single vegetable leaf left.

Of course, facing Lu Feng's such thoughtful banquet, everyone wouldn't eat this meal for nothing.

When leaving, Xiao Feilong and the few streamers stood before Lu Feng, patting their chests and solemnly guaranteeing.

In the future they would continue to vigorously promote Lu Feng's shop in fan groups, letting more people know the taste here.

Lin Yiming and Zhao Zhenhui and the others also expressed that in the future, company department team-building meals would be set at Lu Feng's place.

Everyone also successively expressed their gratitude to Lu Feng, and left the shop with hearts full of satisfaction.

Hu Xiaoyun voluntarily stayed behind to help Lu Feng clear the bowls and chopsticks.

Afterwards she still planned to clean the hall; Lu Feng saw this and couldn't help urging her: "Take your grandfather back to rest early, leave the rest to me."

Hu Xiaoyun then left the shop together with Hu Daye.

Not long after everyone left, a system prompt sounded in Lu Feng's mind.

【Ding! Congratulations Host on completing the mission, unlocking recipe: Max Level Dongpo Pork Elbow Technique.】

A familiar cool sensation spread through his brain, and the method for Dongpo Pork Knuckle was instantly mastered by Lu Feng.

He couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.

The biggest gain from this treat was finally successfully obtained.

This Dongpo Pork Knuckle was truly a hard dish.

With this dish, plus yesterday's very popular Stir-fried Pork with Chili Combo Meal.

Relying on just these two, by the time business ended tonight, he could surely complete this week's mission.

After claiming the mission reward, Lu Feng walked to the store entrance, intending to close the shop door and return to the villa to rest for a while.

"Lu Boss, wait a moment!"

A burst of enthusiastic shouting suddenly came from behind him.

Lu Feng turned his head to look, and the Ramen Shop boss next door, wearing a smile on his face, was walking briskly toward him.

"Thanks to your blessing, Lu Boss!"

The Ramen Shop boss walked up to Lu Feng, his rough voice full of excitement: "Today at noon, my shop's business was more than double the usual! The ramen chefs in the back kitchen nearly cramped their hands, the noodles were almost used up, and I have to buy another batch this afternoon — all this is thanks to you!"

At noon, when Lu Feng treated guests to a meal, the aroma of the food instantly attracted a large batch of passing diners.

The diners saw the shop door open and thought Lu Feng was also open for business at noon today, each one excited beyond measure.

But after learning the reason behind the matter, they left one after another with regret.

As wave after wave of diners drawn by the scent kept walking into the shop to inquire, Lu Feng had no choice but to set up a small blackboard at the door.

Those diners who were attracted over still refused to leave, standing at the door smelling the fragrance for a long time.

Finally, settling for the next best thing, they chose other restaurants near Lu Feng's shop to eat at.

As a result, those restaurants that usually couldn't even fill their seats at the busiest noon hour were all packed full today at noon.

Even a few shop entrances actually started forming lines.

Those restaurant bosses didn't know how long it had been since they'd seen business this good in their shops, each one so happy they couldn't close their mouths.

The Ramen Shop boss was also startled by this sudden customer flow at first.

When he found a moment to walk out the shop door and saw Lu Feng's shop with its door open, he immediately understood what was going on.

"Lu Boss, ever since your shop opened, not to mention my shop, even the popularity of the entire Food Street has flourished along with it."

The restaurant boss hurriedly waved his hand and said in a serious tone: "In the future, if Lu Boss's shop lacks anything, just come to my shop and take it directly; if you haven't eaten dinner, come to my place for a bite — absolutely don't stand on ceremony with me!"
