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...
Day four of the mission.
Qin Yi led Zhuang Qing to the entrance of Zi Yi Primary School.
The guy who used to sell fried chicken here recognized Qin Yi at a glance and greeted her: "Hi! Boss Qin! You're a social media influencer who's been on Zicheng's No. 1 page, why are you back to selling chicken at our elementary school gate?"
Qin Yi found a place to stay and exchanged a few pleasantries with the vendor: "Hello, it doesn't matter where you set up your stall, the most important thing is that people like the food we make."
As soon as Qin Yi unfolded the dragon boat, it attracted the attention of all the children at the school gate.
Everywhere she looked, she saw incredulous eyes.
With the Dragon Boat Festival approaching, it's quite eye-catching to display it on the street.
Some teachers even brought their students to buy class meals together and learn about the intangible cultural heritage of food in Rainbow City, giving the children a lesson that was both visually appealing and delicious.
Because there were many meals available for students in the class, the queue was quickly delayed and lengthened.
In order to ensure that every child can enjoy intangible cultural heritage food, Qin Yi had no choice but to introduce purchase limits again.
With half an hour left before class started, she limited each person to one meal during that half hour and stopped accepting group meals.
Tiger and Zhang Ke'ai lined up one after the other.
Both of them initially acted as leaders, queuing up to buy food blind boxes for their teams.
Who knew the boss would suddenly introduce purchase limits? Well, that's a problem now.
Such a small group of people only had enough time to buy one item.
The children can only hope that their eldest child will have good luck and be able to draw a traditional intangible cultural heritage food that everyone loves.
There are still fifteen minutes before class starts.
Finally, it was Tiger Brother's and Zhang Ke'ai's turn to get in line.
Qin Yi took one look and saw that it was her regular customer, Xiao Douding, surrounded by a bunch of children. It was clear that they were big shots out buying goods.
So she thoughtfully asked, "Would you like me to make the food blind boxes you draw bigger, so that every child can have a little bit?"
Tiger and Zhang Ke'ai nodded vigorously, overjoyed.
Tiger: "Thank you, sister! There are eight people in our group!"
Zhang Ke'ai also said, "Thank you, beautiful sister! We also have eight Barbies in our family!"
After removing the heads from their plates, Qin Yi added more food, checked her phone, and said, "Class starts in ten minutes, so hurry up and eat!"
Tiger Brother drew the Three Delicacies Bean Curd Sheet, and Qin Yi thoughtfully cut a large piece of bean curd sheet into twelve small portions.
This three-ingredient bean curd skin is made with glutinous rice and a specially prepared bean curd skin paste.
It contains diced meat, eggs, fresh bamboo shoots, shiitake mushrooms, and dried tofu.
It has a layer of golden, translucent egg and bean curd skin on the outside, which is fried until slightly browned.
Each piece is square and thin, fragrant and intoxicating, and crisp and fresh when you bite into it.
After Tiger finished looking at the brochure for the Three Delicacies Bean Curd Skin, he gave each of his underlings a piece.
Everyone ate until their mouths were covered in a thin layer of oil, glistening with moisture.
"Boss! This bean curd skin smells amazing! It's so delicious! It's the best thing I've ever eaten!"
Tiger, breathing out hot air, took a bite of the bean curd skin and asked, "Have you forgotten the glutinous rice balls by Daming Lake?"
"Ah! That one is delicious too! It's just as good as this one! And both were made by this lady. From now on, let's stick to this shop, okay?"
Zhang Ke'ai drew Nanxiang steamed buns, and Qin Yi increased the amount to twelve for them.
At first, Zhang Ke'ai was a little disgusted, wondering why she had drawn noodles instead.
Shouldn't delicate girls like them enjoy some pretty little desserts?
It wasn't until I saw the small card for the steamed buns and smelled the rich aroma that I realized how wonderful it was.
Zhang Ke'ai patiently raised her snow-white neck to introduce this intangible cultural heritage steamed bun to her sisters.
"Nanxiang Steamed Bun Shop is a traditional food shop that has been passed down from the Qing Dynasty to the present day. It has been passed down through generations and the ingredients and methods are extremely particular. Each small steamed bun requires 9 grams of dough, and the resulting small steamed bun has 16 pleats of even length. The filling in each small steamed bun is 21 grams, which is just enough to fill a spoonful of soup after steaming."
"It is because of its extreme pursuit of craftsmanship that it can make such thin-skinned, tender, juicy and delicious steamed buns."
Each little princess gracefully held a small steamed bun and took a bite.
The savory broth filled their mouths.
Take the second sip and quickly drink the soup to leave the umami flavor in your mouth, leaving a lingering aftertaste.
The children quickly finished their portions of food, and everyone seemed to want more.
Seeing the extra bean curd sheets in Tiger's hand, Zhang Ke'ai had an idea and asked.
"Tiger Brother, do you still remember that time two months ago when you and I had a crushing defeat in a PK battle at the boss's place?"
Tiger and his gang were about to leave, and they were already heading towards the school gate when Zhang Ke'ai called them back.
To save face, he couldn't appear intimidating in front of his friends, so he turned and brushed aside his stiff bangs.
"It wasn't a crushing defeat! I remember we went back and forth, and I only lost by one point in the end because I was careless."
Zhang Ke'ai continued to provoke him: "Losing is losing. People will only remember the first place winner. Nobody cares how many points the second place winner got."
Tiger was now fully ignited with fighting spirit: "Fine! You want to be number one, huh? How about we have another competition? Nothing lasts forever, so don't cry if you lose!"
Zhang Ke'ai suppressed the urge to smile and said, "Then it's settled. Four rounds to determine the winner. You choose the type of question, and the loser gives the other person a piece of the intangible cultural heritage food they have!"
"Boss! She's after our Doupi! Don't fall for it!" a more rational henchman shouted from the side.
"So what if we're after you! Are you scared before the competition even starts? You're convinced you'll lose, aren't you? You're not good enough!" The Barbie group members were also quite sharp in their words.
Tiger waved to his underlings: "A man can't say no! We can't let them look down on us! I think their steamed buns look delicious, let's win them over for an extra meal!"
"So you're going to set the topic, huh? Then don't blame me for being impolite! I choose—internet memes! I've been watching tons of short videos during my vacation, and now I'm at the very forefront of fashion! How about it! Dare to compete?"
"Heh~~~" Zhang Ke'ai chuckled softly, "Let's set the question, Tiger Brother!"
Tiger: "Listen carefully! The first question, what does 'horse-herding physique' mean?"
Zhang Ke'ai laughed as soon as she heard this: "That's just like you! Is it specially designed to describe you, you lazybones?"
"The 'Horse-herding physique' means that people are easily swayed by others and tend to have a short attention span."
"For example, if you're under a lot of pressure, give yourself a break and have a good meal or some fun; if you feel a little sleepy while studying, put the book aside, give yourself a break, and get some sleep first; if you're full of ambition and have many things you want to do, give yourself a break in practice!"
Tiger was embarrassed: "You actually know! Isn't that me at the beginning of the semester? Before the semester started, I was determined to get into the top five in the class. After the semester started, I was determined to maintain my lower-middle level and not drop any further..."
Zhang Ke'ai: "Haha! You need to have a clear understanding of yourself! I've got one point! Now it's my turn to ask you a question. I'll give you a popular meme that most boys should understand. If you can't answer it, don't blame me! What does 'innate sacred body' mean?"
"I know how to do this problem!" Tiger jumped up excitedly.
"I only recently started watching this anime! At first, the Innate Sacred Body was a legitimate cultivation physique! For example, the Innate Dao Embryo Sacred Body refers to the invincible physical body of a Sacred Body and the near-heavenly power of an Innate Dao Embryo!"
"Later, netizens used it to tease people with special talents in a certain area, such as the 'innate meme-battle master,' which refers to someone who is good at using memes to fight with others!"
Zhang Ke'ai pondered for a moment: "Actually, I heard this question from a male classmate, but I couldn't guess it, so I specifically asked you for the answer! So I'm the innate Barbie God Body, and you, beautiful sister, are the innate Chef God Body!"
