Chapter 9
Setting up a stall is not a long-term solution. Chen Kangle has also thought about opening a store, but opening a store requires a lot of things. The most important thing now is to earn enough 10,000 yuan to pay off the debt by the end of the month. He has no extra money to open a store.
"Let's open it later." Chen Kangle said with a smile.
Yang Zhentian also smiled happily: "I will definitely come to support it when it opens!"
The lunch box made by Chen Kangle is his favorite lunch box. When Yang Zhentian thought about the lunch box with new dishes today, he became greedy again and couldn't wait to eat it.
Fellow workers in the group have also been urging him.
Gu Youbang: [Brother Tian, why don’t you come back? We are starving to death.]
Chang Hualing: [Old Chen, why did you take so long? Hurry up and bring our food back.]
"Beautiful boss, I'm leaving first!" Yang Zhentian said with a smile.
Chen Kangle suddenly remembered that she had made some tea eggs for breakfast and had not finished them. Yang Zhentian helped a lot today and bought more than ten lunch boxes at once. She was very grateful.
"Brother, wait a minute. I'll get you something." Chen Kangle turned back to the house and took out two tea eggs. "Brother, these are the tea eggs I made this morning. If you don't mind, you can take them back and eat them."
"I don't mind! I don't mind!"
Chen Kangle's lunch boxes are so delicious, so the tea eggs she makes must be delicious too. Yang Zhentian quickly took the tea eggs from Chen Kangle's hand and said, "Thank you, beautiful boss!"
In this way, Yang Zhentian returned to the construction site with eighteen lunch boxes and two tea eggs.
Yang Zhentian took away 18 lunch boxes, and now there are only eight lunch boxes left in the thermal box. Chen Kangle is very satisfied. He thought he would not be able to sell any today, but he did not expect to sell so many.
Grandma Chen also breathed a sigh of relief. There were only eight portions left, so she wouldn't lose money today.
“Le Le, it seems that everyone likes your lunch boxes. They come to buy them even when it’s raining heavily. If it were someone else, you might not be able to sell a single one.” Grandma Chen was very happy to see that so many people liked her granddaughter’s lunch boxes.
Taste is king. If the lunch boxes didn't taste good, we wouldn't have sold so many today. Chen Kangle thought to himself that he would try to make more delicious lunch boxes in the future, so as to attract more customers and make more money.
Chen Kangle calculated that he sold 32 lunch boxes today, with sales of 448 yuan, which has already recovered the cost and made some extra money.
It was still raining heavily outside, so he definitely couldn't open the stall in the afternoon. The money he made today was only half of what he made yesterday. Chen Kangle had already planned to bring more lunch boxes tomorrow to make up for the money he didn't make today.
Lin Zhenghua is an employee of a used car market. He goes to the nearest community restaurant for lunch every day. Although the food in the community restaurant is not delicious, the food in other restaurants nearby is equally bad.
The place where he works is a food desert, where there is no good food at all. He envies his classmates who work in the city center, where there are delicious foods everywhere and they can eat whatever they want.
Every day during lunch, he couldn't help but complain to his friends.
Lin Zhenghua: [Let me show you the food in our restaurant. The vegetables are yellow and the lean meat is hard. I suspect that the chef of this restaurant has never eaten the food he cooked. Otherwise, how could he have no shame to sell these dishes.]
Lin Zhenghua: [I am speechless. Even the rice is undercooked today. It is a disaster.]
Lin Zhenghua: [I have lost 5 kilograms since I started working here. I feel like if this continues, I might become as thin as a skeleton.]
It was miserable enough on normal days, but today was even worse. It was raining heavily outside and they couldn't go out. They couldn't even eat the bad food and had to go hungry.
When Lin Zhenghua saw Chen Guangrong said he would send them lunch boxes, he ordered one without thinking. He just wanted to fill his stomach.
When he got the lunch box, Lin Zhenghua opened it without any expectations. Instantly, an overbearing aroma of soy sauce hit him, and Lin Zhenghua was caught off guard and almost drooled at the smell.
Lin Zhenghua took a look at the braised pork trotters in the lunch box. They were shiny and red in color and looked delicious.
He couldn't wait to pick up a piece and put it in his mouth. The pig's trotter was soft and chewy, full of collagen, and full of sauce flavor, which instantly conquered his taste buds.
"Oh my God! This pig's trotter is delicious. I didn't expect that we have such delicious food here. It's such a surprise." Lin Zhenghua said in disbelief.
This is the best braised pig's trotter Lin Zhenghua has ever eaten. In the past, some of the pig's trotters he had eaten were overcooked and had a mushy texture, which did not taste good at all. Some of the pork trotters he had eaten had too much muscle and it hurt his teeth when he chewed them.
The braised pork trotter he is eating now has just the right texture, soft and chewy, and the more you chew it, the more fragrant it becomes.
Lin Zhenghua ate the food in big mouthfuls and became addicted to it.
After eating the braised pork trotters, Lin Zhenghua's chopsticks reached out to the stir-fried pork with sour bamboo shoots next to it. The sour bamboo shoots were sweet, crispy and tender, with little fiber and high water content. Every bite was filled with freshness, sourness and spiciness.
"It's delicious. I didn't expect sour bamboo shoots to be so delicious. My impression of sour bamboo shoots is that they are sour, but this one is not very sour. It has a hint of sweetness and is very delicious." Lin Zhenghua praised the sour bamboo shoots.
Then, Lin Zhenghua picked up a handful of cold-mixed black fungus with chopsticks. The mixed black fungus was crisp and refreshing, sour and spicy, which greatly increased people's appetite.
He ate rice with big mouthfuls, meat with big mouthfuls, and vegetables with big mouthfuls. This was the most delicious lunch Lin Zhenghua had ever had. He hadn't eaten so full in a long time, and he ate until there was not even a scrap of vegetable left.
Lin Zhenghua took a photo of the empty lunch box and sent it to his friends to show off.
Lin Zhenghua: [I have good news for you. I finally had a delicious lunch box today. It was really delicious.]
Lin Zhenghua: [The braised pig's trotters are delicious, the sour bamboo shoots and pork are sweet and delicious, the cold fungus is sour, spicy and crisp, and every dish in the lunch box with two meat dishes and one vegetable dish is delicious.]
Lin Zhenghua: [It’s really delicious, even better than the food in your downtown restaurants. ]
Usually when Lin Zhenghua had lunch, he would complain to his friends about how bad the food was. He never thought that one day he would show off to his friends how delicious his lunch was.
Now it was his friend's turn to complain about him: "Look how excited you are. People who have never tasted good food are really pitiful. You are so happy with something that tastes a little bit better."
Lin Zhenghua was really happy. He didn’t get angry when he saw his friend’s complaints. He replied directly: [The lunch box I eat is really delicious. If you eat it, you will definitely envy me. ]
Just after sending a message to his friend, Lin Zhenghua heard Huang Mingjin, who was sitting on his left, exclaimed: "The Cola Duck is delicious, sweet and fragrant. The fried eggs with chives are also very delicious. The chives are super fresh and tender, and they don't get stuck in your teeth at all."
Huang Mingjin ate the duck meat in big mouthfuls and said with great enjoyment: "I am so happy. I never thought I could have such delicious boxed lunches in my lifetime."
Lin Zhenghua curiously stretched his head to take a look at Huang Mingjin's lunch box. The large pieces of duck meat had clear textures and looked of good quality. Lin Zhenghua became greedy again.
"Can you let me try a piece?" Lin Zhenghua said embarrassedly.
"No, you eat your own." Huang Mingjin refused Lin Zhenghua's request without thinking. He would never give such delicious food to others.
Lin Zhenghua became more and more greedy as he looked at it, "I've already finished mine."
Huang Mingjin took a look at Lin Zhenghua's lunch box, which was empty without even a grain of rice left. Huang Mingjin was so scared that he quickly protected his own lunch box and said, "This is my lunch box, don't worry about it!"
"Forget it if you don't want to give it to me. I'll buy it myself tomorrow." Lin Zhenghua has already made up his mind. He will buy a lunch box of Cola Duck tomorrow.
He immediately sent a message to Chen Guangrong: [@陈光荣荣哥, I want to buy a lunch box of Coke Duck tomorrow. ]
After having a full meal, Chen Guangrong was sitting in a chair savoring the aroma of braised pork trotters. His cell phone kept vibrating, and his fellow workers in the group were all tagging him.
Yu Lianyan: [@陈光荣老陈, the lunch box you bought is so delicious, the egg custard is smooth and tender, super delicious. ]
Huang Mingjin: [Brother Rong, where did you buy this lunch box? Can you buy me another one tomorrow? ]
Wu Jingping: [Brother Rong, your neighbor is amazing. The lunch boxes he made are so delicious. I want to buy a lunch box with braised pork trotters tomorrow.]
Seeing that everyone in the group was tagging him, Chen Guangrong felt for the first time what it was like to be the center of attention.
He replied with a proud look on his face: [You all should thank me, otherwise you wouldn’t have the chance to eat such delicious lunch boxes.]
The group became lively again.
Wu Jingping: [Thank you, Brother Rong. Remember to give me another copy tomorrow.]
Huang Mingjin: [Thank you, Lao Chen. The lunch box is really delicious. I really like the stewed potatoes with chicken.]
Yu Lianyan: [Thank you, Brother Rong, for bringing us lunch boxes. I like them very much and want to eat them again tomorrow.]
Thanks to Chen Kangle's delicious lunch boxes, Chen Guangrong became the most popular person in the company.
Over at the construction site, Yang Zhentian was also eating a box lunch of braised pork trotters.
Chen Kangle’s lunch boxes never disappoint. The braised pork trotters, stir-fried pork with sour bamboo shoots, and cold-mixed black fungus are all very delicious. Yang Zhentian finished the lunch box in a short while.
After finishing the lunch box, Yang Zhentian remembered the tea eggs that Chen Kangle gave him.
