After being reborn in a parallel world, Qin Yi came to Rainbow City. She bound a Food Blind Box Stall System. At first, it was just random draws for time and location tasks, but later, even the foo...
The students from the sports team were the first to rush to Qin Yi's booth.
They were puzzled when they saw the owner pack the fried noodles in a small box: "Boss, why is the portion so small today?"
While frying noodles, Qin Yi said, "I made these small portions so that everyone can try more varieties at the food festival, and I didn't want them to be too full. I divided one serving of fried noodles into three small boxes, and the price is only one-third of what it used to be. Plus, with the discounts the school gives us at the food festival, each box is only five yuan now."
These students who practice sports are all strong and have big appetites.
"I don't think this small box is enough. I usually eat two bowls of fried noodles. Let's have three boxes today, otherwise it won't be enough. After I finish the fried instant noodles, I'll go look at other things."
“I want three boxes too. I haven’t had breakfast yet, I’m counting on this meal.”
Wu Miaoyu walked up to Qin Yi's stall, panting, and said, "Beautiful boss, none of them have ever eaten fried instant noodles before. They went to another city for training starting last Sunday and only got back yesterday. After I told them about all the different kinds of instant noodles they've had these past few days, they've been craving them so much that they came straight here as soon as the promotion started. Are there any purchase limits today?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Yi was also undecided for a moment, so she changed the subject and said, "I also brought my partner to set up a stall today. We made these meatballs together. We have both sweet ones in syrup and savory ones. If you don't have enough fried noodles, you can try these."
Qin Yi thought her decision to divide a serving of fried noodles into three small boxes was very clever, but she didn't expect that the first group of customers would be a group of fierce sports students.
They were completely ungrateful for the boss's thoughtful care, each buying at least three boxes and lining them up next to the van to slurp up the noodles.
Because he listened to his girlfriend, Lu Xu not only bought six bowls of fried noodles, but also a bowl of sweet rice balls in soup and a skewer of three-flavor grilled meatballs.
The two of them were engrossed in their meal, and Lu Xu was very satisfied: "Baby, I've been craving these instant noodles every day because of the pictures you post. I've imagined eating them countless times, but they're even more delicious than I imagined! The squid is tender and springy, with a touch of sweetness and spiciness. It's delicious on its own, but it's even better with the instant noodles. Every noodle has that unique charred aroma from the hot plate, and the stir-fried noodles with pickled cabbage and pork belly are so fragrant, even the dried chili peppers are cooked until they're fragrant. Instant noodles stir-fried over high heat have that irresistible aroma that hits you right in the head!"
Wu Miaoyu smiled as she watched her boyfriend wolf down his food: "Eat slowly, don't choke. We bought six servings of noodles, that should be enough, right? Let me try the new meatballs the shopkeeper is selling and see how they taste."
After saying that, she took a bite of a grilled beef meatball.
Wow.
Then she immediately opened a box of osmanthus jelly balls, took a couple of bites, and said to Lu Xu, "Brother Xu, could you hold these two things for me first?"
Lu Xu had just finished eating two bowls of fried noodles and used his free hand to help his girlfriend carry the food she had only half-eaten.
"Is it good or not? Why aren't you saying anything?"
Wu Miaoyu ignored him and went straight to Qin Yi's stall: "Beautiful boss, give me another bowl of sweet rice balls in soup and three skewers of grilled rice balls."
Qin Yi was frying noodles, while Cheng Yingtao packed up the customer's order and handed it to Wu Miaoyu.
Wu Miaoyu ran back to Lu Xu's side with quick steps: "These meatballs are so delicious! Not only do they taste great, but they also have a great texture! I've only ever eaten frozen meatballs outside before. This is the first time I've ever had handmade meatballs. When you bite into them, they bounce! I didn't know meatballs could bounce like they're dancing in your mouth! We have to buy more quickly! I'm afraid they'll sell out like fried noodles in no time."
Lu Xu saw his girlfriend return carrying a bowl of sweet soup and three skewers of grilled meatballs.
"Come on, baby, give me what you're holding, let's go buy some more! I see a group of people running towards the boss! Let's hurry and grab what we need first!"
When Xu Guoqing was speaking earlier, you could still see the figures of his classmates running.
As soon as I finished speaking, I felt the crowd in front of me speed up, and I couldn't even find their shadows anymore. We're all college students, why are you so showy?
When they reached the finish line, they saw the group of sports students eating fried noodles like hungry tigers devouring sheep.
Those who eat quickly finish a small bowl in three bites, and then chew their food vigorously on the side.
Xu Guoqing was the first in the second wave of people to reach Qin Yi's booth.
The fried noodles on the table had already been eaten up by the group of sports students, each taking several boxes. Some people were even buying food from the stall next to the owner, which piqued his curiosity.
"Boss, give us four bowls of fried noodles first, and do you make these meatballs over there too?"
Qin Yi asked Cheng Yingtao to bring out the advertising board she had just made and stand it next to her. She explained to each customer that it was really tiring.
"Hey classmate, over there are the sweet meatballs and grilled meatballs that my partner and I sell. They're also handmade."
Xu Guoqing's classmates ran alongside them the whole way, panting heavily. Those with less stamina bent over, their faces pale with exhaustion, too tired to utter a single word.
After resting for a while, he came to his senses and asked, "Xu Guoqing, Fang Daming! What are you two running so fast for?"
At this moment, the hot wok was already sizzling with oil, and the aroma of the pickled cabbage, pork belly, and chili peppers rose into the air outdoors. A burst of passionate flames shot out from Qin Yi's hands, and now was the perfect time to show off her wok-flipping skills that she had practiced before.
Qin Yi made a slight tremor in her left hand, and the dish spun in the air. After adding the instant noodles, the heat was increased, and all the ingredients took off.
Rising into the air amidst roaring flames, ingredients that have undergone intense heat are able to quickly lock in their juices and moisture, making the stir-fried noodles even more fragrant.
The student, who was still panting, was attracted by the strong aroma and immediately straightened up and ran to the stall.
"The fried noodles are already waiting for a table. There are 24 bowls ahead of us. I'll make 3 bowls in one batch. My classmate, please take your ticket and wait on the side."
While selling fried noodles, Qin Yi didn't forget to promote the meatballs next to her: "For those who don't want to wait, you can try the sweet soup and meatballs next to us. They are also handmade and will be sold out soon."
Xu Guoqing and Fang Daming were already eating nearby.
"The little glutinous rice balls in this sweet soup look so cute, like little balls, smooth and round. Chewing on one is delicate and chewy. You have to understand the feeling of biting into glutinous rice to know it. It's so satisfying!"
"The fragrance of osmanthus is unique and long-lasting. I was already intoxicated by the aroma even before I finished eating it. The hand-rubbed bubble jelly inside almost moved me to tears. It was so chewy, with a texture that I only had when I was a child."
"Yes, yes, yes! Most of the jelly sold outside nowadays is made with pre-mixed powder packets, and it breaks as soon as you put it in your mouth, with no texture at all."
"Two more bowls of sweet rice balls, and I'll also try some meatballs."
"I don't usually like eating these kinds of meatballs. I always feel like they have a Hextech flavor, but I heard that the owner's meatballs are also handmade. I wonder how they taste. I'll give them a try."
