Chapter 5
In a short while, the remaining four cola duck lunch boxes were sold out.
"Boss, I want one too." Some of the workers gathered in the front still wanted to buy lunch boxes.
Chen Kangle said with a smile: "Today's lunch boxes have been sold out. I will come again at noon tomorrow. You can come and sell them at noon tomorrow."
After the crowd dispersed, Chen Kangle began to pack up his things slowly. Looking at the empty incubator, he felt sweet in his heart.
Yang Zhentian and his friends had finished their lunch boxes. When they saw Chen Kangle had sold all his lunch boxes, they walked over to congratulate Chen Kangle: "Congratulations, boss. I wish your business will be prosperous. Your lunch boxes are really good."
"Boss, could you please save a box lunch for me tomorrow? I'll pick it up after we finish work."
They will definitely work overtime tomorrow at noon. Wang Qianshun is worried that he may not be able to buy lunch boxes tomorrow, so he wants the boss to save some for him.
Gu Youbang also stepped forward and said, "Please save one for me too. I want one for Coke Duck."
He just had a lunch box of stewed potatoes and chicken, so he wants to have a lunch box of cola duck tomorrow.
Others also asked Chen Kangle to help reserve lunch boxes, and took out their mobile phones to scan the code and pay 14 yuan.
When paying, they couldn't help but sigh that they could have such a delicious lunch for only 14 yuan.
The lunch box with two meat dishes and one vegetable in the construction site canteen costs 12 yuan. Although it is cheap, the taste is hard to describe. Now, for an extra two yuan, you can have a super delicious lunch box, which makes you feel as happy as if you had won the lottery.
The five people asked Chen Kangle to help reserve two boxes of cola duck and three boxes of stewed potatoes and chicken. Everyone had a smile on their face, which was completely different from the lifeless atmosphere just now. Everyone was chatting and laughing, as if the delicious boxed lunches could make people happy.
"Thank you Brother Tian for bringing us here to eat such delicious boxed lunches. I am so happy with the meal."
"A delicious lunch box is different. After eating it, I feel refreshed and full of energy. I feel like I can work overtime for another four hours without any problem."
Everyone, who were originally exhausted, became full of energy after eating the boxed lunch.
As soon as Chen Kangle rode away on his bike, Liu Jiayi rushed to the entrance of the construction site.
Liu Jiayi works in a property management company in a nearby residential area. After work at noon today, she went to a restaurant to buy a box lunch. However, on the way home, she accidentally tripped over a stone and the box lunch in her hand fell to the ground.
What was even worse was that a strong wind suddenly blew and sand got into Liu Jiayi's eyes. She squatted down and rubbed her eyes hard until they turned red.
At this time, a girl suddenly handed her a box lunch. Liu Jiayi's first reaction was to refuse. She didn't want to take other people's things for no reason.
As a result, the girl directly put the lunch box in her hand and rode away on her electric bike without giving her a chance to refuse.
Liu Jiayi stood there in a daze, thinking for a while. She guessed that the girl might have seen the lunch boxes scattered on the ground. As her eyes were red, she thought that she was crying because the lunch box fell on the ground. She felt sorry for her and gave her a lunch box.
Liu Jiayi looked at the lunch box in her hand, feeling a little amused and helpless.
Liu Jiayi got a box lunch for no apparent reason, and didn't want to waste it, so she took it back to the dormitory and ate it.
You don’t know until you try it.
This was the most delicious lunch box she had ever eaten in her life, especially the cola duck in the lunch box. The duck meat had a particularly firm texture and was fresh and fragrant with every bite.
The duck meat Liu Jiayi had eaten outside before was always soft and had a strong fishy smell. There was a thick layer of fat between the duck meat and the duck skin, which made it difficult to chew and greasy.
The duck meat in this lunch box had almost no fat under the duck skin, and was particularly chewy. Combined with the sweetness of the cola, it was so delicious that Liu Jiayi wanted to eat even the bones.
After finishing the lunch box, Liu Jiayi’s first reaction was: I want to eat more!
If you can eat such delicious boxed lunches every day, life will be more beautiful.
Liu Jiayi recalled that the girl who had just delivered the lunch box to her said that it was the leftovers from her sales, which meant that the girl was selling lunch boxes. In addition, there was an insulated box on the girl's electric bike, so it was possible that she was selling lunch boxes at a stall nearby.
There are residential areas and construction sites nearby. Liu Jiayi guessed that the girl might be selling boxed lunches at a stall in the residential area, because she felt that a girl would not set up a stall at a construction site where dust was flying everywhere.
After getting off work in the afternoon, Liu Jiayi rode her bike to take a walk around the community, but she did not see any stalls selling boxed lunches near the community, nor did she look at the girl.
After thinking about it, Liu Jiayi decided to try her luck at the construction site. As soon as she arrived near the construction site, she saw workers carrying lunch boxes. She took a closer look at the lunch boxes in the workers' hands. The lunch boxes contained cola duck, scrambled eggs with leeks and braised eggplant, which were exactly the same as the lunch boxes she had eaten yesterday.
Liu Jiayi's eyes lit up, and she quickly got off the car and asked the worker carrying the lunch box, "Brother, where did you buy your lunch box?"
"Just over there at the entrance to the construction site, there was a little girl driving an electric bike to sell them."
"Thank you, big brother!" After saying that, he rode his electric bike towards the entrance of the construction site.
Arriving at the entrance of the construction site, Liu Jiayi walked around but still couldn't find the lunch stall, so she had to run to ask the security guard at the entrance, "Uncle, do you know where the girl selling lunch boxes is?"
"That girl selling lunch boxes, she just left on her electric bike." The security guard at the construction site was bored today and had been observing the girl selling lunch boxes at the door. He originally thought that she would not be able to sell any, but unexpectedly she sold out at noon and in the afternoon.
Hearing that the girl selling lunch boxes had left, Liu Jiayi looked disappointed. She was still a step slow. It was all her fault that she had guessed wrong at the beginning. If she hadn't run to the community, she would not have missed it.
The more she thought about it, the more upset she became, and Liu Jiayi's face was filled with unhappiness.
The security guard consoled her: "Little girl, if you can't buy it today, you can come back tomorrow. The girl selling lunch boxes will be here around noon."
"Thank you, uncle!"
Although I was very disappointed, there was nothing I could do if I couldn’t buy it. I could only wait and come back tomorrow to buy it.
Liu Jiayi had no choice but to buy a box lunch from the restaurant she often visited because she didn't buy the box lunch she wanted. She didn't think the box lunch in the restaurant was bad before, but after eating that delicious box lunch at noon this year, she now thinks the box lunch in the restaurant is very bad.
While eating the box lunch from the restaurant, all I could think about was the box lunch of the girl selling things on the street stall.
Liu Jiayi has already made up her mind that she must eat the little girl’s delicious lunch box tomorrow, otherwise she will be in a bad mood.
——
I successfully sold 20 lunch boxes today, and sold five lunch boxes for tomorrow in advance. Together with the nine lunch boxes sold at noon, I sold a total of 34 lunch boxes, with an income of 476 yuan.
Since all the ingredients are at home, there is almost no cost.
But there are not many vegetables left in the family’s vegetable garden, and there are only a few chickens and ducks left in the yard, so we need to go out to buy ingredients tomorrow.
Chen Kangle calculated the repayment date and found out that he had to pay his friend 10,000 yuan in 20 days. If he wanted to earn 10,000 yuan in 20 days, he had to sell more lunch boxes every day.
After thinking about it, Chen Kangle decided to bring thirty lunch boxes to the construction site at noon tomorrow. If the boxes sell well at noon, he would bring forty boxes in the afternoon.
She didn't dare to bring too many lunch boxes blindly. If they couldn't be sold out, she would lose a lot of money, and she couldn't afford the loss now that she was broke.
Chen Kangle plans to slowly increase the number of lunch boxes, and then quickly increase the number of lunch boxes once word of mouth spreads.
The next day, Chen Kangle got up early in the morning and went to the vegetable market.
Purchasing ingredients is not an easy task. If you want to make delicious dishes, ingredients are the most important.
Chen Kangle walked around the market and first bought leeks, eggplants and water spinach. Then he went to the meat area to buy chicken and duck. However, after visiting several meat stalls, he still couldn't find chicken and duck that satisfied him.
Most duck meat and chicken meat feel soft to the touch, and you can tell at a glance that it is the kind of duck meat that was fed with feed and then slaughtered shortly afterwards. Usually, the texture of these chicken and duck meat is not firm.
After looking through all the duck and chicken in the market, Chen Kangle still couldn't find anything satisfactory. When it comes to ingredients, Chen Kangle is unwilling to compromise.
After thinking for a while, Chen Kangle decided to go back to Yang Chunxia for help.
Yang Chunxia's family also raises a lot of chickens, ducks and geese. Like her family, they are fed with grains and leftovers, so the quality of the meat must be good.
"Aunt Axia, can you sell me some ducks and chickens?"
Knowing that Chen Kangle was used to make lunch boxes, Yang Chunxia agreed very readily and took the initiative to go to the yard to catch chickens and ducks for Chen Kangle.
"My aunt's chickens and ducks are so fat. They will definitely taste delicious." Yang Chunxia couldn't help but boast as she held the heavy duck in her hands.
As she spoke, Yang Chunxia thought of something.
"Le Le, auntie can introduce you to a place to buy chicken and duck meat. I guarantee that the chicken and duck meat there will satisfy you."
Yang Chunxia knows a girl who raises chickens and ducks. She is also a girl with a miserable life. Her mother is sick and paralyzed in bed. In order to take care of her mother, the girl gave up her high-paying job in the big city and returned to the village to become a breeder.
"Don't worry, the chickens and ducks in her family are all fed with grains. They are definitely not the kind that are raised on feed." Yang Chunxia guaranteed with her own life.
Chen Kangle believed what Yang Chunxia said. What worried her most now was where to buy good quality chicken and duck meat.
Chen Kangle asked Yang Chunxia for the girl's contact information and planned to contact her when she was free in the afternoon, hoping to find satisfactory chicken and duck meat.
At 11:45 am, Chen Kangle brought 30 box lunches to the construction site, 15 of which were cola duck and 15 of which were stewed potatoes and chicken.
