2625 Chapter 169 Memorial Day

There were a total of four people. Master Xiang served each of them a bowl of noodles the size of a basin and then placed a timer in the middle of the table.

"Begin."

After shouting, the few young people's smiles were completely different from before. They picked up their chopsticks and quickly picked up a slice of noodle and ate it.

The snow-white slices were stained with the meat sauce, giving the White color a unique color of the sauce. With the occasional chopped green onion, it looked particularly appetizing.

At the very least, these four young men gobbled up the food in this manner. Their movements were Swift and fierce, like tigers that had been released from their cages. They were extremely ferocious and their speed was not slow.

This was different from Wu Hai's natural and smooth movements. The few young people had never seen Wu Hai before, so there was no way to compare.

Seeing that they had already started eating, master Xiang went to greet another unfamiliar customer. This time, master Xiang brought out two normal bowls of noodles, which made the new customer who had only ordered two bowls let out a sigh of relief.

They had been attracted by the four young men's bold and unrestrained attitude and wanted to eat some, but their stomachs were not strong enough to fit such a large bowl of noodles. Therefore, they repeatedly emphasized two taels, and it was indeed two taels.

In fact, all his worries were unnecessary. The idea Yuan Zhou gave master Xiang at the beginning was to set up some items similar to rewards. For example, he could specify how many bowls of noodles he had to finish within a certain period of time. If he didn't do that, he would have to collect the noodles money from himself and a series of other activities.

Not only could he attract people's attention, but he could also sell more noodles. At that time, master Xiang didn't really believe in Yuan Zhou. He just wanted to make a last resort and thus adopted Yuan Zhou's suggestion. He didn't expect that he would become famous overnight and attract many big eaters to challenge him. The arrival of some internet celebrities in particular attracted a lot of customers.

Not only could it be challenged, but it could also be eaten with normal noodles, so the audience was still relatively wide.

In order to save time and energy, master Xiang directly put the noodles in a basin and ate it within the specified time for free. It was both convenient and attractive.

The previous four young men had come to challenge master Xiang many times, but they didn't come for the free entry. They came because master Xiang had a glory list. If they took less time, they could get on it. This was a matter of glory, and they definitely had to fight for it.

The honor List was also suggested by Yuan Zhou to master Xiang later on. No wonder master Xiang respected Yuan Zhou so much.

After all, Yuan Zhou's contribution to the revival of his stall was really significant.

Master Xiang's thoughts were flying, but his hands were moving faster and faster. Humans had the nature to join in the fun. In addition, the four of them were working together. Their bold movements were very attractive, so many diners were attracted to them.

There were also people who came specially. Some of them were regular customers, while others were customers of the small shop. They were late and didn't get to line up. They could only eat whatever the small shop sold today and cheat their stomachs. After all, it was the same type of food.

Today, the breakfast served in the restaurant was sour soup noodles. Although it didn't smell, it was enough to make those who didn't line up to eat drool. Therefore, all kinds of noodles on Taoxi road were very popular, including the knife-cut noodles made by master Xiang.

Even if there were no noodles with sour soup, there were still noodles, saozi noodles, mushui noodles, and so on. As long as it was noodles, one could lie that they had eaten it in the store. The vendors on Taoxi road were now very particular about freshness with real ingredients, which could also comfort one's stomach.

Master Xiang usually only did business in the morning. He didn't do business in the afternoon or at night. But even so, ever since he heard Yuan Zhou's suggestion, he still received a lot of customers, which was quite different from his previous half-dead state. Therefore, he could be said to be content with a little wealth.

With money and free time, master Xiang adopted a child. In fact, it was a coincidence. Perhaps everyone knew the prosperity of Taoxi road, but one morning, master Xiang happened to meet an abandoned child.

She was two or three years old and looked like she was carved from Jade. The only unfortunate thing was that she could not speak. Although her facial features were good, she was probably not well taken care of. Therefore, when master Xiang saw her, she was like a small animal, curled up not far from his stall with a pale face. She looked very thin and pitiful.

Although master Xiang was big and burly, he was very kind. After a series of investigations, the child's biological parents could not be found. Master Xiang adopted the child and named him Xiang Tao.

In fact, master Xiang was not qualified to be adopted by Yuan Zhou. After all, he was single. However, master Xiang was an old resident of Taoxi road. In addition to Yuan Zhou's fame, everything was going well for him.

Early this morning, master Xiang had started to get up, but he was a little later than usual. However, he was still very leisurely to help Xiang Tao put on his clothes.

Every year on this day, master Xiang would not open his restaurant but go to master chef Restaurant for a meal. He would eat in the restaurant all day and do business at other times, even during the new year. However, today was a special day.

Four years ago, today was the day Yuan Zhou reminded him. Ever since his business started to get better, master Xiang had been treating today as a Memorial Day. Although he knew that he couldn't make any profit for Yuan Zhou even if he ate at the restaurant every day, let alone for just one day, he still wanted to express his gratitude to Yuan Zhou.

Even though Yuan Zhou might have already forgotten or didn't take it to heart, master Xiang knew that Yuan Zhou had done a lot of good things and it was all observed by him. For example, he donated money to Taoxi road to increase the number of trash cans and cleaners or to donate money to the nearby park to increase the number of sports facilities. Compared to that, giving him advice was really a child's play.

Yuan Zhou might not take it seriously, but master Xiang himself had kept it in mind.

"Little Tao, we can go to boss Yuan's restaurant to eat again today. Are you happy?" In the past few years, master Xiang had been taking care of Xiang Tao as both a father and a mother, and he was very skilled.

Although Xiang Tao could not speak, his hearing was normal under master Xiang's training and treatment. When he heard master Xiang's words, his face showed a bit of joy, and he quickly made a few hand gestures while he was dressed.

"Hahaha, that's right. Your uncle Yuan's cooking is definitely the best. I wonder what's for breakfast today." Master Xiang said with a smile.

Hearing master Xiang's words, Xiang Tao made a few more hand gestures. Although master Xiang was the only one talking throughout the whole process, the scene was very heartwarming.

Since he lived on Taoxi road, he didn't have to rush. Therefore, it was a rare day for master Xiang to sleep in. After dealing with Xiang Tao, he would clean himself up. By the time everything was ready, it was almost time to line up.

With Xiang Tao in his arms, master Xiang walked outside, greeting some regular customers and neighbors from time to time.

Everyone knew that master Xiang was going to the master chef Restaurant for dinner today, so the content of their greetings became "what do you want to eat today","can Xiao Tao finish a dish by himself", and so on.

To be honest, the most popular greeting on Taoxi road was not "have you eaten today", but "have you eaten in my restaurant?" it was clear how deeply the master chef Restaurant had been rooted in people's hearts.
