Gourmet: Midnight Vending

Chapter 106: Go Completely Crazy!


If the earlier yellow braised chicken was the pinnacle of freshness and aroma, the one prepared now truly embodies the perfect combination of color, aroma, and flavor.

And it looks even more yellow.

The dish yellow braised chicken, as the name suggests, should be yellow in color, and the main technique is braising.

You should braise it when the chicken and sauce are merging, and then cover it with cabbage leaves in the steamer and braise it further. As one of the advanced recipe notes says: when making Lu Cuisine, never be afraid of trouble.

The hallmark of Lu Cuisine is its reliance on every small detail, and when each detail is perfected, you can achieve the perfect dish.

Chen Mo is now dividing these chicken pieces, with each bowl containing half a chicken.

"No choice, I have to do this for everyone to get a taste of the yellow braised chicken. As for which parts of the chicken are in the bowl, it's all down to luck for everyone."

LuLu glanced over the twenty bowls of chicken pieces and pointed to one, "Boss Xiao Chen, save this one for me."

Chen Mo looked down and saw two chicken wings and half a drumstick in the bowl.

This girl has sharp eyes, huh?

"Thanks to my hardworking bro's Porsche! Thanks to Yueyun Pavilion's Porsche! Here we go, heading to the fourth floor~"

LuLu, whose legs were originally shaky, suddenly felt energized.

Money imparted a special magic to LuLu's legs, and even if it were the fourteenth floor instead of the fourth, she would be eager to climb!

Chang Jianjun quickly scanned the code before LuLu finished packing, "Boss, how much?"

One chicken is 98 yuan, so for half it's just 58 yuan! Chen Mo didn't hesitate.

The serving speed is faster, the preparation method is more convenient, the taste might even be better, and the price can go up a bit. If LuLu is working hard to make money, then Chen Mo feels like he's practically snatching it.

Fifty chickens divided into 100 portions, total price: 5800 yuan!

With the same mindset as LuLu, beads of sweat began to appear on Chen Mo's happy forehead. His actions became more meticulous, knowing that customer support comes from great taste—if the quality drops because of high demand, the business would only get worse.

At room 408, Fang Zhizhong generously bought six portions of yellow braised chicken as a treat.

It's not much, considering there's still a bottle of Maotai.

"Come on, taste this new version of yellow braised chicken." Fang Zhizhong picked a piece of meat with his chopsticks, feeling a bit regretful, "We should've packed the cabbage leaves too."

Hou Yao was stunned, "Boss Fang, that's unnecessary."

Some ingredients lose their use after serving their purpose.

Of course, you shouldn't just waste it.

Hou Yao handed the chopsticks to Mu Xin, "Lao Mu, want some?"

Mu Xin watched the livestream on his phone, "Damn, my daughter works hard late at night, and he treats her like this. Is he even human?"

President Fang and Master Hou curiously glanced at the livestream.

LuLu had already run downstairs, now carrying meals. The livestream camera focused on the inside of the food cart.

Xiao Mumo sat on a stool inside the food cart, holding a bowl of rice; on top of the rice was the cabbage leaf they had just removed, munching away.

"Chen Mo brother, the cabbage is so tasty! It's so soft and sweet."

Chen Mo grinned, "Just eat."

No kidding, the cabbage leaf covering the chicken not only protected it from dripping water from the steamer lid but also absorbed the flavor as the chicken soup evaporated, losing some of its internal moisture as well.

Of course it's delicious.

But Lao Mu saw it differently.

Angry, Lao Mu gritted his teeth, thinking, "She skips the lavish banquets from Yueyun Pavilion, yet enjoys cabbage leaves with this punk, claiming they're sweet?"

Impossible, tomorrow I'll find out if I can still have another kid—Xiao Mumo is a lost cause!

LuLu kept running and packing.

Chen Mo focused on thickening the sauce, glazing it over the chicken pieces in the steamer.

With so many portions, it took nearly an hour to finish delivering all the dishes. Chen Mo glanced at his phone.

Late at night, 3:05 a.m.

Perfect, finished today's sales before closing time. LuLu, panting, sat on a small yellow stool, "Guys, it's all gone, not a single portion left! Just delivered 100 portions, did everyone get to eat?"

The livestream was buzzing with excitement and praise, fortunate there were fifty chickens. Without them, the praise would turn to harsh criticism.

"No wonder you all chase after Boss Xiao Chen every day. Turns out this dish is quite refined. I just had two portions of yellow braised chicken, feeling great, time to sleep."

"Damn it! Because you had two portions, I didn't get any. Tell me your room number, and I'll see you for real!"

"LuLu, when are you coming to the andrology department? I'm starving, anyone there? I have surgery tomorrow, can't go hungry!"

"Today's battle report: one mapo tofu, one yellow braised chicken, a bun—perfect, off to sleep!"

Some new viewers were baffled by the unusual atmosphere of this livestream room.

"Is this a patient gathering livestream? Why are you all talking about food in a hospital?"

"Or is this a new hospital event, free meals for inpatients?"

"Whatever, I'll get sick tomorrow to find out!"

The number of viewers dwindled, with the spectators leaving and those who had eaten ready to rest. LuLu chatted a bit more before closing the livestream and checking the backend; today's earnings: 23,000 yuan.

"Damn!"

Chen Mo was tidying up the dishes, tossing disposable ones into the trash, and storing reusable ones in the cabinet. The upgraded automatic cleaning function of the food cart proved highly effective.

Tomorrow, when he takes them out, everything will be clean and sterilized.

"What's wrong? Screaming like a ghost in the middle of the night?"

LuLu excitedly ran over, "Boss Xiao Chen, look at my income!"

Chen Mo counted the zeros, "Damn!"

Your damn livestream earns more than my food stall?

"Oh, thank you so much for that advice. Without it, I wouldn't have had the resolve to leave that part-time job, haha."

Now LuLu is a livestreamer earning over ten thousand a day!

Of course, that's just a one-off.

Today's income included several rewards from big spenders, mainly for expedited deliveries, and today's show was just incredibly funny.

Many viewers sent gifts generously just to watch LuLu run around breathlessly.

"Of course, this is just a one-time thing. I'd be happy with one or two hundred a day."

Chen Mo still gave LuLu a thumbs-up, "Keep it up! This is way better than working at a foot spa."

LuLu smiled happily, "Then, Boss Xiao Chen, I'm heading off."

Watching LuLu's limping figure leave, Chen Mo felt somewhat gratified; if he hadn't advised her back then, who knows if she wouldn't have ended up as a tech worker.

But now, for a girl from a small town with little prospect, this might be a better outcome.

The road ahead is still hers to navigate.

"Chen Mo brother, I don't want to go home, I'm so sleepy."

"Where do you want to go?"

Mu Mu pointed to the cockpit, "Isn't there a bed?"

At room 408, Mu Xin said over the phone, "Quick, hurry inside to pick her up! If not, it'll be too late!"

Chang Jianjun, finishing last, was about to praise Mr. Chen but then saw the female streamer who followed Mr. Chen earning 20,000 a day and a girl working for Mr. Chen being picked up by a Maybach.

Doctor Chang, somewhat bewildered, returned to his duty room.

What on earth has the head office sent here?
