Chapter 2 Meow Meow
Li Yun was waiting eagerly beside the pot.
Tan Tingting was standing next to him. After getting Jian Yunlan's consent, she raised her phone to take a picture of him. The more she looked at it, the more delighted she became.
——It’s so beautiful! It looks good no matter how you shoot it!
Tan Tingting felt regretful as she took the photos. He is so handsome, why would he go to the entertainment industry to make a killing? Why would he set up a stall to make dirty money?
Yes, Tan Tingting has already acknowledged that Jian Yunlan is making money in an illegitimate way.
After all, who would spend thirty yuan on a bowl of wontons?
Maybe he wants to use this gimmick to debut as an internet celebrity on Tik Tok, attract people who love good looks to make premium offline purchases and engage in fan economy.
Moreover, when it comes to snacks, Tan Tingting still trusts those uncles or aunties who set up stalls with simple and honest looks, who have a sense of sophistication that comes from years of experience.
Soon, another person was attracted by the aroma of the chicken soup and stopped in front of the stall.
The person who came was the security guard at the school gate. He was on duty on an empty stomach today and hadn’t even had dinner yet.
"Boss, how much are the wontons?"
"Thirty yuan per portion, available in chicken soup and spicy mixed flavors." Jian Yunlan answered as usual.
According to the valuation of the Chef God System, the conservative price of his wonton is at least three figures. Top-quality ingredients, perfect cooking time, and superb cooking techniques make it priceless. If it were placed in one of those wealthy neighborhoods, I estimate that someone would be willing to buy it even if it was sold for a thousand yuan.
Even though the price is slightly higher than ordinary wontons, he doesn't worry about no one buying it.
The security guard was also shocked when he heard the price.
Thirty dollars for a serving of wontons? !
But, it smells so good that I can’t help it!
"I want a chicken soup."
The security guard paid the money doubtfully and waited by the side.
As they were talking, Li Yun's wontons had been cooked for five minutes and were ready to be taken out of the pot.
Jian Yunlan skillfully scooped up ten small wontons with the colander and put them into the bowl. Then he opened the lid of the soup pot, scooped a spoonful of boiling chicken soup, poured it on the wontons, and sprinkled with chopped green onions.
As the white mist rises, the rich aroma of chicken soup spreads.
There is a thin layer of sesame oil floating in the chicken soup, and it is even more delicious with the garnish of seaweed and green onions. What was even more shocking was the wontons——
The small and compact wontons float in the soup, dragging their cloud-like tails. The crystal-clear skin is extremely thin, and you can see the pink meat inside. It's so tempting when it's poured with hot soup!
How can the wonton skin be rolled so thin without breaking when cooked?
The owner of the bracelet stall secretly looked at the scene here and felt confused.
One of his relatives runs a breakfast shop and also sells wontons. But making handmade wontons is too difficult and a thankless job. The meat filling is okay, but the wonton skin is either too thick and customers don’t like it, or too thin and breaks as soon as it comes out of the pot, and the meat filling falls out, turning it into meatball noodle soup.
Because of this, the breakfast shop opened by his relative also gave up handmade wontons and switched to selling fried dough sticks and soy milk.
This is also why the wontons sold in many chain stores on the market are all pre-made by machines. They mostly taste the same and can fill your stomach, but they are not that delicious.
But Jian Yunlan's beautiful wontons are obviously made by hand-rolled noodles and hand-wrapped, because the pre-made wontons on the market do not look like this and the skin is not so thin.
"Your chicken wonton soup is ready," Jian Yunlan handed the disposable bowl to Li Yun, "Be careful with the heat."
Li Yun couldn't wait to take it.
The warm chicken soup is slightly boiling and feels warm in your hands. But the wontons that had just come out of the pot were still steaming, and their fragrance kept reaching people's noses.
Li Yun's stomach was growling. She held the bowl, blew on it to cool it down, and then took a sip of the soup.
The warm soup flows across the lips and teeth and into the throat.
——The rich umami flavor explodes in your mouth!
The old turkey soup, which has been boiled for a full eight hours, has a rich flavor and just the right amount of saltiness. Unlike the pre-made chicken soup sold on the market, this chicken soup has no MSG taste at all. Instead, it has the rich bone and meat aroma of the chicken itself, with the fragrance of oil and green onions. After eating this bowl, the empty stomach is wrapped in warmth, making people want to sigh out loud.
It's so delicious that it's tongue-deadening.
Li Yun couldn't help but drink several mouthfuls before she picked up the spoon, gently scooped up a wonton, and put it into her mouth along with the chicken soup.
The wontons were a little hot just out of the pot. Li Yun exhaled a few puffs of hot air, then gently bit through the thin and crystal wontons with her teeth.
Li Yun: “!!!”
The wonton wrapper has just the right toughness, and when you bite it gently, you'll find delicious meat filling inside. The high-quality tender pork that Jian Yunlan carefully selected, the tenderness and juiciness firmly locked in the wonton skin, now poured out completely.
With the base flavor of old turkey soup, the greasy meat aroma spreads in the mouth. The sweetness of the corn kernels perfectly neutralizes the greasy taste of pork, making it delicious and refreshing.
Li Yun chewed and savored the food. As soon as she finished one, she couldn't help but bite off another one and couldn't stop at all.
“Delicious, so delicious!”
While eating, Li Yun felt excited.
——After a whole day of abnormal professional classes, I was starving, but a bowl of top-notch wontons on the street appeased all the gluttony in my stomach.
There is nothing more healing than this!
"Boss, you are simply a savior, woooo." Li Yun said while eating with tears in her eyes.
Tan Tingting: “……?”
"Is this true?" Tan Tingting twitched her nose, half believing and half doubting, "You must be very hungry, and everything tastes good at this time."
Li Yun continued to eat voraciously: "No, it's really delicious. It's the most delicious wonton I've ever eaten in my life!"
Tan Tingting's curiosity was aroused: "Then let me have a taste."
Li Yun held the entire bowl with one hand, turned around vigilantly, and faced her back to Tan Tingting.
Protecting food.jpg.
Tan Tingting: “…”
On the other side, the security guard’s wontons were also ready. The security guard couldn't wait to bite into the wonton. His face turned red from the burn, but he couldn't bear to spit it out. He could only let it cool down in his mouth.
After eating a few wontons and drinking a mouthful of the extremely delicious chicken soup, the security guy completely shook off the lethargy he had during his previous shift and became full of energy!
The security guy gave Jian Yunlan a thumbs up, scanned the code, and transferred another sixty yuan:
"Boss, give me two more so I can take them back to my colleagues!"
"Okay!"
Watching diners enjoying the food and letting the food he made personally heal the tiredness and fatigue of a day, there is nothing more satisfying than this!
This was the obsession that he had not been able to realize in his previous life. Jian Yunlan felt as if he was in a dream, and his whole body was floating in the air.
Although she was happy in her heart, she did not stop working. Jian Yunlan quickly put another twenty wontons into the pot.
Curious about the performance of Li Yun and the security guard, and having already been tempted by the aroma of the chicken soup, more and more passers-by gathered around.
Most of them are college students and school workers from the School of Design and the School of Mechanical Engineering, as well as office workers passing by.
Thirty yuan for a bowl of wontons is a bit expensive, but acceptable.
In the blink of an eye, a line had formed in front of the wonton stall, and everyone was looking at the two big pots curiously like mushrooms popping up after the rain.
"Boss, give me some chicken wonton soup!"
"Two servings here."
"One serving of chicken wonton soup, without chopped green onions, scanned and sent."
“…”
The owner of the bracelet stall was a little angry at first. He was doing business with female college students. Normally, this was the time of the day when the flow of customers was the highest, but the students were all attracted by Jian Yunlan.
He used to set up a stall selling grilled sausages at the same location as Jian Yunlan, but there was no business at all at that time.
Could it be that the students here prefer eating wontons?
After hesitating for half a minute, he quietly queued up and bought a bowl of chicken wonton soup with the mood of "observing competitors".
After taking a bite of wonton, the bracelet stall owner was immediately convinced.
Damn, this is so delicious!
The owner of the bracelet stall simply closed the stall and squatted next to Jian Yunlan's food cart. He was unwilling to let the wontons cool down and just kept putting them into his mouth one bite after another.
No wonder they make money!
Similar to him, other diners who had just received the wontons were skeptical at first, but later became completely immersed in the happiness brought by the delicious food.
"Woo woo woo, how can it be so delicious?"
"The chicken soup alone is worth more than thirty bucks, and the wontons are even more delicious!"
"After eating wontons like this, I can never go back. I can never eat frozen wontons that come out of an assembly line again..."
"Everyone, don't crowd, take your time!" Jian Yunlan said, "Everyone has a share."
Watching more and more people gathering in front of the stall, there were exclamations one after another, and the sound of "shashasha" from people who were scalded by the heat but were extremely happy.
Tan Tingting couldn't sit still anymore.
Is it really that delicious?
It can't be that so many people are just acting.
Li Yun finished the whole bowl of wontons in no time, even licking the soup at the bottom of the bowl clean, and did not even share a single bite with Tan Tingting.
Not only that, after eating, Li Yun walked smoothly to the end of the line and lined up.
"No, I want to try it too."
Tan Tingting made up her mind and lined up behind Li Yun.
If she doesn't get ripped off, then she gets ripped off. Looking at everyone's reactions, she won't be able to sleep if she doesn't eat these wontons today.
However, the opposite happened.
Tan Tingting hadn't been in line for long when Jian Yunlan opened the soup pot and took a look, then announced to the crowd:
"The chicken soup wontons are sold out. The only ones left are the spicy wontons with sesame sauce flavor."
——Many people were attracted by the delicious aroma of the chicken soup. When they heard that the chicken soup was sold out, many people showed disappointed expressions.
However, no one left the team.
They have been waiting in line for so long, whether it is chicken soup or spicy salad, they must have it!
"Boss, I want a spicy dish."
Tan Tingting felt a little regretful that she didn't taste the delicious chicken soup that Li Yun said would make your eyebrows drop, but she still scanned the code to pay.
I don't know whether the fragrant mix tastes good or not.
She is not a fan of sesame sauce. She usually only dips it in hot pot. Most of the time, she prefers wontons with soup base.
"Okay." Jian Yunlan smiled and said.
His eyes curved into crescents, and the slight sense of alienation brought about by his stunning appearance was diluted by his gentle smile, and his whole body was enveloped in a gentle and worldly atmosphere.
"ah!"
"He looks even better when he smiles!"
A small scream was heard in the team.
Many female college students had already eaten dinner, but they were simply attracted by Jian Yunlan's good looks and lined up just to be closer to him and appreciate his handsome face.
Stunned by the beauty, Tan Tingting couldn't help but become obsessed with her.
Although I have doubts about the boss's cooking skills...
But he is so handsome!
Wearing a floral apron, Jian Yunlan performed the simple movements of cutting and packing wontons so beautifully, smoothly and elegantly, with a sense of ease and nobility.
But soon, Tan Tingting no longer had time to indulge in Jian Yunlan's beauty.
——The wontons with thin skin and large fillings are topped with a layer of silky sesame paste and sprinkled with sesame oil and chopped green onions. After mixing it with chopsticks, Jian Yunlan sprinkled a layer of crystal white sesame seeds on it and handed the wonton to her...
Tan Tingting picked up a wonton with chopsticks and put it into her mouth half-believingly.
The first thing you feel is the rich and smooth aroma of the handmade sesame sauce. Sesame paste and peanut butter are intertwined, with a delicate and fragrant taste, wrapped in a thin and smooth wonton skin, which is fragrant but not greasy.
When you take a bite, the delicious pork filling and sweet corn kernels are mixed with the excellent sesame sauce, which is so delicious that you don’t want to swallow it.
Tan Tingting: “…”
Tan Tingting: “F*ck!!!”
Completely different from the light and warm chicken soup base, the thick and mellow handmade sesame paste has a richer taste without overpowering the other ingredients. The texture of wontons is also made more silky.
Even Tan Tingting, who is not a fan of sesame paste, was impressed by this rare delicacy.
She didn't even have time to say anything and started eating bite after bite.
Why was she so stupid before!
While eating, Tan Tingting felt very disappointed with herself. Why do you have to have the preconceived notion that the boss makes a living by his looks...With his skills, he can be very successful wherever he goes!
It was also her fault for not lining up earlier, otherwise, she could have eaten three servings of chicken soup and spicy salad each.
Many other diners also got the spicy wontons and, like Tan Tingting, wolfed them down.
“Sesame sauce is delicious too!”
"Boss, did you make this sesame sauce yourself? The sesame sauce you buy on the market is not even one thousandth as delicious as this."
"Give me two more so I can take them back to feed my roommates."
Seeing that the spicy wontons were so popular, many diners who had eaten the chicken soup wontons, although they were full, could not resist their cravings and went back to the end of the line to line up.
But the long line was not even halfway through.
"Sorry, we've sold out all the 100 wontons." Jian Yunlan looked at the bottom of the pot and said, "I'll be here at 7 o'clock tomorrow. Welcome everyone to come again!"
After saying this, he himself seemed a little reluctant to leave.
It’s such a blessing to be able to feed so many diners!
But happiness is so short-lived, because the Chef God System stipulates that one hundred copies must be sold, no more and no less, and you have to leave when you sell enough.
Otherwise, he could sell here all night.
After packing up the dining cart, Jian Yunlan rode away on his tricycle, looking back every few steps.
After waiting in line for a long time, the diners who hadn't waited for their turn wailed behind their backs:
"Boss, please don't leave, wuwuwuwu."
"The wontons are sold out, I can lick the bottom of the pot..."
"You must keep your word. I will wait here on time tomorrow. You must come!"

The plane of all worlds, live broadcast platform.
In the live broadcast room named 'At the gate of Peking University...', 503 viewers were shown online.
At this point, the first day of live streaming had come to an end, and many other anchors had done their best to interact with the two protagonists of "Paranoia Monopoly".
For example, the anchor next door who got the maximum level of luck, relied on his incredible luck to pick up the wallet dropped by the protagonist Ning Sheng in front of the gate of the School of Computer Science at Peking University, and has already started talking to Ning Sheng.
Although Ning Sheng's reaction was very cold, at least they were able to talk!
Just because of this, the popularity of the live broadcast room soared to tens of thousands, attracting several wealthy people to throw rockets at it.
Ning Sheng has a stubborn and cold personality, and is a very popular girl. However, due to some childhood trauma, his mind is now filled with code and scientific research, and he is indifferent to everything else. The "Paranoid Monopoly" copy has been opened several times, and many challengers even tried for a whole month, but Ning Sheng still couldn't remember their names.
And Jian Yunlan’s live broadcast room——
