After leaving their luggage at the pre-booked hotel, Qin Lang, Zhou Qing, and Li Hong gathered once again in the hotel’s lobby.

“Good thing we booked the hotel early,” Li Hong chuckled, “I heard that all of the nearby hotels are already fully booked from now until the end of the Leaping Fish Banquet.”

“Is it that serious?” Qin Lang couldn’t help but exclaim.

There’s still twelve days until the Leaping Fish Banquet and all of the hotels are already booked?

“After all, it’s a massive culinary exchange event that covers the entire Mingjing Province, and even other provinces are involved.” Zhou Qing chuckled, not surprised, “Honestly, even a provincial-level cooking competition may not be this large.”

“It seems that I will have a lot of interactions with other Spirit Chefs at this Leaping Fish Banquet.” Qin Lang spoke out excitedly.

“Of course.” Li Hong chuckled, “Qin Lang, do you have any other plans? If not, Mr. Zhou and I are going to visit Mr. Shen He, a first-level food recommender in Yue Hu City. You can come with us.”

“Mr. Shen He?”

“Yes, he’s an old friend that I have known for many years.” Zhou Qing chuckled, “He’s the one who invited me to the Leaping Fish Banquet and who informed me in advance about the change of rules. Li Hong has also interacted with him.”

“If it’s possible, I hope I can join you.” Qin Lang showed a somewhat eager expression.

Just arriving in a new city, establishing a personal network is very important.

Moreover, since the other party was able to inform Zhou Qing about the adjustment to the Leaping Fish Banquet in advance, it indicates that he is very knowledgeable about the Banquet, which is a good opportunity for Qin Lang to understand the event.

On the way, Qin Lang had asked Zhou Qing and Li Hong about this issue.

However, the two of them did not tell him in detail.

Not that they were deliberately secretive, but because each iteration of the Leaping Fish Banquet differs in format, and the creation of a Youth Group this year made it more mysterious.

But one thing was certain, the culinary exchange method of the Leaping Fish Banquet is very unique and completely different from Food Fights and cooking competitions.

This made Qin Lang even more curious about the Leaping Fish Banquet.

“Of course, it’s not a problem.” Zhou Qing laughed, “I have arranged the car, and we can go see my old friend together.”

Qin Lang expressed his gratitude and then hopped onto the car with Zhou Qing and Li Hong.

In a short while, they arrived at a single detached villa.

Mr. Shen He was a bald old man, always wearing a warm smile on his face.

He was very enthusiastic about the arrival of Qin Lang and the others.

“Zhou Qing, you old kid, it’s about time you came.” Shen He laughed and patted Zhou Qing on the shoulder, then turned to look at Li Hong, “Li Hong, it’s been a while too.”

Finally, his gaze fell on Qin Lang, “Welcome, young man, how should I call you?”

“Hello Mr. Shen He, my name is Qin Lang.” Qin Lang spoke politely.

“I’ll remember.” Shen He laughed heartily, “Don’t just stand at the entrance, come in, I’ve prepared good tea!”

“Then I won’t hold back.” Zhou Qing chuckled, taking the lead to enter the house.

Qin Lang and Li Hong quickly followed.

Soon, the four of them were sitting in the living room, engaged in casual conversation after the servants poured the tea.

After chatting with Zhou Qing and Li Hong about past experiences, the topic soon turned to the new face, Qin Lang.

“Young friend Qin Lang, are you planning to participate in the youth group exchange of the Leaping Fish Banquet?” Shen He said with a slight smile.

“Yes.” Qin Lang nodded, “But I’m not very familiar with the rules or exchange format of the Leaping Fish Banquet.”

“Old Shen, Qin Lang is the one I invited specially after receiving your call.” Zhou Qing by his side calmly sipped his tea, “You were being secretive on the phone, now you have to tell us everything, right?”

“No problem.” Shen He laughed heartily, “Actually, in two days, ten days before the start of the Leaping Fish Banquet, the relevant rules will be made public anyway.”

“But there’s no harm in telling you now.” He paused slightly before continuing, “The Leaping Fish Banquet is a seafood exchanging event held by Ms. Ye Cangqing, a third-level food recommender in the Mingjing Province, and it takes place once every three years.”

Qin Lang nodded slightly.

He had learned this in advance from Zhou Qing and Li Hong.

Because the Leaping Fish Banquet is organized by a third-level food recommender, this is why it has such a huge influence.

“In every Leaping Fish Banquet, the participating Spirit Chefs will rank themselves, but the original intention of the banquet is not for competition, it’s more focused on exchange.”

“So its exchange format will be vastly different from Food Fights and cooking competitions.”

“And the exchange format for this Leaping Fish Banquet is even more special.” Shen He looked at the three curious faces and chuckled, “Ms. Ye Cangqing believes that culinary exchange should not be limited to exchanges between Spirit Chefs.”

“Not just between Spirit Chefs?” Li Hong raised an eyebrow, “What do you mean?”

“As an old saying goes, food is the foundation of the people.”Shen He paused slightly, “In this world, there are a lot of Spirit Chefs, but even more people have not become Spirit Chefs, and they also have the pursuit and love for delicious food.”

“The Leaping Fish Banquet has grown to its current size and should have a stronger social responsibility, so this time the banquet will make a small attempt to let more ordinary people participate.” Shen He chuckled, “These are Ms. Ye Cangqing’s exact words.”

“As expected of a third level food recommender.” Zhou Qing showed admiration, “So what is the exchange method for this Leaping Fish Banquet?”

Shen He mysteriously smiled and said two words.

“Stalls.”

Zhou Qing: “???”

Li Hong: “???”

Qin Lang: “???”

Looking at the surprised expressions on the three men’s faces, Shen He laughed even harder, “Yes, it’s exactly what you’re thinking, setting up stalls.”

“All the Spirit Chefs participating in the culinary exchange of the Leaping Fish Banquet will set up stalls on the deck of the event venue – ‘Leaping Fish’ cruise ship – and serve the endless stream of food guests with delicious food for three days.”

“The Yue Hu City Spirit Chef Association will provide each participating Spirit Chef with support for ingredients. Spirit Chefs can purchase unlimited amounts of ingredients for their stalls and decide on the prices for their dishes.”

“During these three days, anyone can board the ship to taste the food and vote for their favorite dishes with different weightings.”

“This Leaping Fish Banquet exchange is divided into an all-age group and a youth group. The all-age group needs to prepare three different dishes for their stall, while the youth group only needs to prepare two.”

“The Spirit Chef with the highest votes in the all-age group and a youth group will be the winner of this Leaping Fish Banquet.” Shen He chuckled, “How is it? Isn’t it interesting?”

“It’s a very interesting exchange activity.” Zhou Qing looked interested, “I’ve never set up a stall before, I can try this time.”

Li Hong, who was next to him, nodded slightly and was already thinking about which three dishes to choose.

Qin Lang’s eyes gradually lit up.

A stall exchange sounds so cool!
