Chapter 422 The Meaning of the Existence of [Fairyland]
As the built-in conveyor belt in the center of the table slowly rotates, one plate after another of the transformed seafood delicacies are delivered to the table like a flowing stream.
The conveyor belt moved at a steady pace, and as the platters filled with seafood swept past the people at the table, the rising steam, mixed with the sweet and fresh aroma of the sea, filled their nostrils.
All of this silently testifies to just how fresh and delicious these plates of seafood are.
"Wait a minute, these... could these be the live seafood we just scooped up?"
"They've already... uh, passed away?"
Kong Nishang rarely eats seafood, and looking at these plates of reddish-brown, somewhat familiar-looking delicacies, she found it hard to connect them with the dark-colored, lively seafood that had just been baring its teeth and jumping around.
These ugly creatures that were just a moment ago have now turned bright red.
I must say, it really does look much better now, and it even smells delicious, which is quite tempting.
Su Yingying, standing next to her, was clearly a seafood connoisseur. Her eyes were glued to the mouthwatering seafood on the plate; her mouth was practically watering. She couldn't help but exclaim in surprise:
"Wow, from the time we caught the seafood to the time it's served, it hasn't even been the time it takes to drink a cup of tea! It's so fresh, it must taste incredibly delicious!"
"Yingying is right! The seafood here is all about being caught, cooked, and steamed on the spot!"
From the moment the seafood is alive and kicking to the moment it reaches our table, all that's needed is a quick cleaning and processing. The goal is to allow diners to savor the purest and freshest flavor of the seafood!
While talking to them, Bai Mengran picked up the specially prepared seafood vinegar that had been prepared on the table, poured some into her own bowl, and then handed it to the three of them.
"Seafood tastes twice as good when dipped in vinegar!"
You can also try pouring a little into your bowl. If you don't like the sour taste, you can eat it on its own; it's still incredibly delicious!
"Mmm, I believe Sister Bai, so I'll eat it with vinegar too~"
"I want some too, I want some too, quickly pour me some too..."
Looking at the several large platters of seafood arranged in a row in front of her, Bai Mengran immediately said:
"Shall we share these seafood dishes?"
Since they're all cooked, it's hard to tell who scooped them out, so let's eat them while they're hot.
"Yingying, Yiyi, Jiaojiao, don't just stand there, get started!"
At her command, everyone immediately got to work.
They couldn't wait to pick out the seafood they were most curious about from the plate and try it, while occasionally stealing glances at Sister Bai to see how to eat the seafood in the best way.
"For seafood like shrimp, you can simply remove the shell to enjoy the tender shrimp meat."
Crabs and shellfish are a bit more troublesome. We have to peel off their hard shells first, then break them open before we can bite into the tender meat inside…”
Bai Mengran explained everything to them in great detail, demonstrating each dish as she spoke, showing them several representative types of seafood.
His movements were quite skillful, clearly showing he was a seasoned seafood connoisseur.
Of course, guests dining in the main hall don't need to worry about not knowing how to handle seafood.
Waiters and the restaurant's specially equipped dining robots will provide thoughtful explanations and attentive service.
When a new dish appears, as long as one person at the table learns to eat it, it's considered a success.
So, whether they bring new customers back later or, once they've returned home, these seasoned diners who have mastered the new culinary skills will immediately transform into ambassadors, willingly spreading the word and introducing the food to everyone they meet...
Their enthusiasm was more than anyone else's!
This has almost become an unwritten rule in [Fairyland] since the opening of countless new stores.
Nowadays, the people of Yongle County no longer talk about trivial matters like family squabbles and neighborhood gossip during their leisure time. Instead, they ask each other three questions at once:
Did you go to [Wonderland] today?
"Tell me quickly, have any new shops opened in [Wonderland] today? What new food items have been added?"
"Have you heard? There's been some new activity at [Wonderland] lately! They're building some kind of underground high-speed rail..."
In short, every move of the Fairyland is deeply concerning to the people, and the new changes that happen there every day have become a source of fun for every household to chat about after dinner.
Anyone who is at the forefront of the "Fairyland" and keeps up with its latest developments will be surrounded by a group of fans who will ask about the latest and most interesting things, and then spread the word everywhere they go, never tiring of it.
It is precisely because of the "fairyland" that the people of Yongle County and even the entire Anshun Kingdom have experienced tremendous and tangible changes.
People now have great hope for their lives!
Everyone works themselves to the bone to earn money, just so they can take a day off and bring their whole family to this "fairyland" to enjoy themselves and have some fun!
Life has become so beautiful these days!
What moved the people the most was that this wonderful place did not only favor the royal family and the wealthy, but treated everyone equally and kindly.
Here, they can truly feel the equality of all beings, and that everyone has the right to enjoy delicious food and a good life.
Even with meager income, people can still afford a ticket to come in, cool off, and sit comfortably for a long time.
Even just looking at this beautiful scenery and watching others laugh and have fun, one can almost feel the beauty of life.
Here, it feels as if simply being alive is an extremely beautiful and precious thing...
Whether it's because there are truly divine blessings here or not, whenever the truly poor come to the wishing well, they toss in a coin and make a wish...
I'm always blessed by Lady Luck and win a meal that's big enough to fill my stomach!
This will bring smiles to their faces and give them a faint sense of happiness that they have not been abandoned by life.
In the "Fairyland," in many unexpected moments, it seems that the two famous sayings that have been passed down for thousands of years, "taken from the people and used for the people" and "when one is successful, one should help the world," are truly embodied.
This prosperous era and this scene perfectly match Bai Mengran's wishes!
Since she was blessed by the heavens, who allowed her to travel here by chance and bestow upon her such a magical and unparalleled fairyland.
In the process of making money, upgrading, and moving forward, if we can spare no effort to help more people and add even a sliver of light to their otherwise mediocre and disheartening lives...
Bai Mengran also felt that this was much more precious and meaningful than simply focusing on making money.
