Food: How come this boss knows everything?

Chapter 56 Tomato Egg Noodles
night.

In a residential area in Jianghai City, at Fatty Sun’s home.

Fatty Sun, who had just returned from the gym, was exhausted both physically and mentally, slumped on the sofa and scrolling through his phone.

In order to look better when taking wedding photos with his wife Xu Mengmeng, he has been working out recently.

After aerobic and anaerobic training, Fatty Sun no longer had any strength left except for being able to scroll through videos with his fingers.

Xu Mengmeng came over and pushed him aside, "Move aside, I want to watch a TV show."

Fatty Sun used up his last bit of strength to flip over and reached the other end of the sofa.

Give up the space facing the TV.

He looked up, with a sad face, and said, "Wife, I don't want to go to the gym anymore."

"tired?"

Fatty Sun shook his head shyly.

"I will do what I promised you, no matter how tired I am."

After hearing this, Xu Mengmeng was inexplicably moved. They had known each other since childhood and had experienced a lot along the way.

Wanting Fatty Sun to lose weight is more for his health.

But Fatty Sun's expression was really a bit strange.

So Xu Mengmeng asked curiously: "What's wrong with you?"

“Someone touched my butt at the gym.”

Xu Mengmeng laughed angrily, "You're talking nonsense. Who else but me would like you now?"

Fatty Sun said in despair: "It's a man. I'm so scared."

Xu Mengmeng kicked him on the butt.

"Go to hell, go get the certificate on the 21st, and you have to hold on for a week." Of course, she would have other excuses after this week to urge Fatty Sun to control his weight.

However, her kick actually knocked Fatty Sun's cell phone away.

There were also some other surprises.

The video playing on Fatty Sun’s phone was of a pretty girl in a purple dress.

Xu Mengmeng grabbed the phone and asked sternly:

"Oh, you've become quite capable now. You're giving people a thumbs up in front of me, right?"

Fatty Sun failed to somersault and could only get up. "No, listen to my explanation, Mengmeng."

"You think I'm old, don't you? College students are so young."

Xu Mengmeng was furious when she saw the bitchy look on the face of the female student named "Linlin, come on!" on her phone.

Fatty Sun quickly explained: "Look behind you, that's the owner of the night market barbecue stall selling pancakes at school!"

The owner of the barbecue stall? What's his relationship with the girl in the video?
This gap is quite large indeed.

Xu Mengmeng was unable to react for a moment.

Fatty Sun continued:
"Didn't we go to the night market a few days ago? It was the barbecue restaurant you said was so delicious. He used to sell boxed lunches on Jianghai Avenue, and now he's selling breakfast at school. I liked it because I saw him."

"How can this be possible?" Xu Mengmeng asked, pointing at the little girl in the video.

"Oh, turn back. It's just a short paragraph."

Xu Mengmeng pulled out the progress bar and flipped to the back, and sure enough, she saw the familiar boss making pancakes.

"It's really him, eh? Wait, why didn't I know he sold lunch boxes?"

Damn it, let it slip.

Fatty Sun quickly changed the subject:
"Do you have a relative who just got admitted to Jianghai University? Give me his contact information and I'll go visit him and buy you a pancake. It's not easy to get into university these days."

This boss’s kebabs are so delicious, so his pancakes must be good too.

Xu Mengmeng thought about it and realized that there was indeed such a relative, and according to seniority, she should call her aunt.

She pulled out her cell phone.

From "Xu Family Compound" all the way to "A Loving Family", a large group of 88 members.

Finally found the contact information of this great nephew.

But Fatty Sun had hidden too many things from me.

You still have to beat him up first.

Five o'clock the next morning.

As soon as the alarm rang, Li Rui woke up immediately.

He turned off the alarm on his phone and checked the time.

Good guy, he didn't waste even a second.

After getting up, he turned on the system as usual:
The hidden achievement achieved yesterday was [Best Partner], and the reward was a pure gold pancake pan.

Li Rui took out the gold pan. The density of gold is more than twice that of iron, so it is heavier than iron of the same size.

Something flashy.

For making pancakes, it is definitely not as good as cast iron.

Li Rui put it in the cabinet to collect dust.

Then he checked the newly unlocked recipe: Tomato and Egg Noodles.

this is not bad.

How delicious it is to have a bowl of hot tomato and egg noodles in the morning.

At 5:30, Li Rui arrived at the eighth canteen of Jianghai University on time.

After preparing the pancake batter and soy milk, he began to stir-fry the soup base for the tomato and egg noodles.

With specialized skills in cooking, and previous experience in frying tomatoes and eggs.

This soup base is easy to make.

Remove the stems of tomatoes and cut into small pieces.

Wash a few rapeseed leaves and set aside.

Beat the eggs and add a small amount of salt to add some flavor.

Prepare the ingredients and heat the oil in a pan.

Pour out the hot oil and add cold oil again for cooking.

This step is applicable to woks used in school cafeterias and can be omitted for coated non-stick pans at home.

Li Rui turned the heat down to low.

Then he grabbed a handful of chopped green onions for making pancakes and threw them into the pan.

Wait for the chopped green onions to be fried until fragrant, then add the prepared tomatoes into the pot.

Then sprinkle a little salt on it to help the tomatoes release their juice.

The tomatoes provided in the school cafeteria are of average quality, and a little ketchup needs to be added to enhance the flavor.

After the tomato sauce is cooked, pour a little light soy sauce on the side of the pot and then add water.

After the water boils, slowly pour in the egg liquid while it is boiling.

Wait for the egg drops to slowly float up from the pot, then add the rapeseed.

In this way, the soup base of tomato and egg noodles is ready.

The entire soup base does not need to be added with chicken essence or MSG. It is already very delicious with the umami flavor of tomatoes and eggs themselves.

After the soup base was ready, Li Rui scooped it out and placed it in a thermos bucket.

The noodles are provided by the cafeteria.

If a classmate comes to buy tomato and egg noodles, he just needs to put the noodles in, cook them, and then pour the soup base on them.

Li Rui walked to the outside of the window.

A few more words were added to the small sign.

"Tomato and egg noodles, 3 yuan"

This price may be hard to find outside the school.

But in school, this cheap delicacy is still quite reasonable.

After writing down the words "tomato and egg noodles" and the price, Li Rui looked at the breakfast on the sign.

Now the main foods are pancakes, soy milk and noodles.

Although there were not many styles, he was the only one working on it.

While making pancakes and pouring soy milk, I also have to take care of the noodles in the pot.

If there were a lot of people around seven o'clock, I might be a little overwhelmed.

Looks like I need to find a helper.

Thinking of this, Li Rui found the manager who was in charge of the cafeteria in the morning.

Explain your needs.

The manager felt a little embarrassed after hearing this.

The school has always provided work-study positions, and some students also come to help in the cafeteria.

Li Rui also saw this when he was changing shifts in the cafeteria at around nine o'clock.

But the problem is that the students who signed up for the breakfast position never showed up.

"I'll ask for you," the manager said, "but don't hold your hopes too high."
