A leisurely life: I have a scenic area

Chapter 42 The Boss Opens a Food Truck? Unsure, I'll have to wait and see.
After a busy week, the weekend is finally almost here.

Qi Yue estimated that there would be a lot of people tomorrow, so he started preparing to set up his stall early.

The garden landscape has become known to more and more people through word of mouth, and the number of tourists continues to rise.

This week will definitely be even more exciting than last week.

Qi Yue now possesses multiple premium recipes awarded by the system, making it the perfect time to showcase his skills.

However, with so many product categories, we can't sell them all.

He plans to select three categories to sell first.

One is stinky tofu, one is grilled cold noodles, and one is grilled squid.

All the tofu needed for stinky tofu has been bought, the special garlic and chili sauce has been prepared, and there's also a pot of broth made using a secret method. It's hard to imagine it not being delicious.

Cold noodles and grilled squid are both ready.

After all, there were five days to prepare, and Qi Yue had done a lot of research on these matters.

Until Saturday.

Qi Yue planned to start setting up his stall at 11 o'clock.

This is when tourists are quite hungry, and besides, there are hardly any people early in the morning. Tourists usually eat breakfast before coming over, so they won't buy snacks.

Noon is just right.

Anyway, the task has a relatively long time limit, and there's no requirement to complete it within a week.

Even if we can't finish this week, we can continue next week.

At 10:40, Qi Yue drove the yellow food truck bus slowly from the living area toward the scenic area.

The gate was already open, and Qi Yue proceeded into the scenic area.

Grandpa Liu was dozing off in the guardhouse when he saw the food cart approaching and immediately woke up.

He thought some daring vendor had set up a stall inside the scenic area!
Setting up a stall here is not allowed.

Grandpa Liu got up and walked out of the guardhouse. He was about to say something to stop them when he took a closer look and realized that the person driving the car looked like the boss.

He suspected that he was dazzled.

"Is the owner operating the food truck?"

"Not sure, let's see again."

Grandpa Liu looked at it carefully again, and it really was the boss.

"Old Liu, I'm going in to set up a stall."

Qi Yue also greeted Grandpa Liu.

"Yes Yes."

Grandpa Liu readily agreed.

Qi Yue drove the food truck into the scenic area.

The scenic area is very large, and there are many places suitable for setting up stalls. He had planned the location in advance.

That's about 20 meters from the Mixue Ice Cream shop, somewhere between the petting zoo and the garden landscape.

This location is ideal; all visitors can see it.

The roads here are all wide and spacious. Qi Yue parked the food truck on the side of the road, opened the side window of the food truck, and turned on the electronic screen.

The price list for the snacks is written above:
Grilled cold noodles: 8 yuan per bowl

Stinky tofu: 8 yuan a bowl

Grilled squid: 5 yuan per skewer

Compared to the 15 yuan per bowl of stinky tofu at popular tourist attractions, his price is already considered very reasonable.

Then, Qi Yue heated the oil in the wok and the teppanyaki grill, just waiting for the guests to arrive.

Qi Yue's dining bus is very new and stands out in the scenic area.

It seems to be an NPC in a game world who gives out quests.
Tourists quickly noticed this scene.

"There are snacks over there!"

"Let's go grab something to eat, I'm a little hungry."

Tourists who saw the food trucks came over one after another.

Qi Yue is very open and honest in his business dealings. Prices are displayed on the electronic screen of the food cart, so everyone can see the prices and decide whether or not to buy.

No need to ask for a price separately.

"Boss, two servings of grilled cold noodles, please."

The first to arrive were a couple who, after discussing it, ordered two servings of grilled cold noodles.

"Okay, right away."

Business is in the air as soon as the stall opens, which is a good omen.

At this point, more and more people started arriving.

After all, the scenic area has a large number of visitors, and it was already 11 o'clock, so many people were hungry.

"Boss, I'll have a grilled cold noodle dish too."

I'd like a serving of stinky tofu!

Everyone placed their orders.

Although Qi Yue has a very good memory and can remember who ordered first and who ordered last, the scene was a little chaotic with so many people around.

"Please line up, everyone, thank you," Qi Yue called out.

At this moment, a tourist recognized Qi Yue and exclaimed in surprise:

"Isn't that the owner of the scenic area? Boss Qi, he's quite famous."

Upon hearing his words, someone echoed:

"It really is him! I've seen the video of him walking the ducks; he looks so relaxed!"

"I've even seen him operate an excavator; he built that garden!"

Some people also have doubts:
"A scenic area owner? Setting up a stall here? Really?"

"Is this the owner of the scenic area? So young? And quite handsome!"

Some people don't care about Qi Yue's identity; they only care about whether the snacks he makes taste good.

At this moment, Qi Yue had already begun preparing two servings of grilled cold noodles.

The griddle was already hot. Qi Yue squeezed a few circles of hot oil onto it, then skillfully cut a few sausages in half and placed them on the griddle to fry.

"Zizzizi~"

As the hot oil boils around the ham sausage, the aroma of the ham instantly fills the air, wafting straight into the noses of the tourists.

Qi Yue possesses exceptional culinary skills. For him, as long as he has a recipe, preparing a large meal is not difficult, let alone making snacks.

There are even many real-life examples of hotel chefs quitting their jobs and setting up stalls in parks to sell rice bowls, which were in such high demand that the lines were incredibly long.

Moreover, Qi Yue's cooking skills are very skillful and graceful, with a great sense of beauty and high visual appeal.

The tourists at the front of the line craned their necks to look at the sausages on the hot plate; the aroma was simply irresistible.

The tourists' mouths watered, but they were too embarrassed to swallow, so they kept it in silence until they swallowed it all at once.

When the sausages were almost done grilling, Qi Yue used a shovel to move them to the side.

Next, take out the cold noodles, place them on a griddle to fry, drizzle some oil on top, spread it evenly, and then crack two eggs on top.

Qi Yue has made grilled cold noodles a few times in the past two days, and he has already become proficient in it after just a few times.

All I could see was him holding a spatula in each hand, quickly chopping the eggs evenly, and then spreading them out.

Because the oil temperature was extremely high, the eggs were cooked and stuck to the cold surface as soon as they were spread out.

All of this happened very quickly.

Qi Yue's skillful movements surprised even the tourists.

No one spoke; they just stared intently.

Next, Qi Yue flipped the two cold noodles over, continued to fry the eggs underneath, spread the secret sauce on top, and sprinkled chopped green onions and onions on top.

Would you like some cilantro?

Qi Yue looked at the two guests at the front and asked.

The man swallowed hard. "I want them all, I want them all."

Hearing him say that, Qi Yue sprinkled the chopped cilantro on top as well.

At this moment, the grilled cold noodles already look very appetizing.

Below is a golden-fried egg, in the middle is a cold noodle dish, and on top are scattered onions, scallions, and cilantro.

Qi Yue saw that it was almost done, so he put the fried ham sausage in, rolled up the cold noodles, and brushed on the secret sauce again.

He skillfully prepared the delicious food, just like an artist.

The more tourists looked at it, the more fragrant it became.

Everyone was thinking to themselves, "This owner's cooking skills are pretty good!"

That wasn't all. Qi Yue sprinkled on some black and white sesame seeds, then chopped the cold noodles into pieces, put them all into a paper bowl, and stuck two toothpicks in it.

All done!

"Your cold noodles."

Qi Yue handed over two bowls of cold noodles.

"Okay, thank you."

The man scanned the code to pay, and he and his girlfriend each took a bowl of cold noodles and immediately walked to the side to eat them.

The girl first forked a piece of cold noodles mixed with egg, ham, scallions, cilantro, and a secret sauce, and gently put it in her mouth.

The cold noodles were still steaming hot, almost scalding.

But she didn't care about that. She took a few breaths and started chewing.

With just one bite, the girl's eyes widened in surprise.

The cold noodles taste absolutely perfect.

It has a soft, bouncy, and chewy texture, with a savory, sweet and sour sauce and a hint of spiciness. It is complemented by the aroma of fried eggs and ham, and is garnished with the flavors of scallions and cilantro.

In an instant, a variety of flavors burst forth in my mouth.

It's absolutely delicious.

She chewed a few more times, and as her saliva mixed with the cold noodles, her tongue became somewhat soft.

"Oh my god, this is so delicious!"

The girl covered her mouth, her eyes filled with surprise and excitement.

Who would have thought that a bowl of cold noodles could be this delicious!
This boss's cooking skills are simply unbeatable!
