Many small companies do not have canteens, so they give stall owners a sum of money every month to allow them to provide lunch and dinner for their employees.

This type of collaboration is very common.

Therefore, when Qiu Ling said she was buying lunch boxes and snacks in large quantities, the stall owners thought she was an employee of a small company.

No matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat, and people with quick minds are ready to make a move.

There was a chubby stall owner who touched his bald head and introduced himself: "I have been selling lunch boxes here for three years. Do you want to try my cooking skills?"

It is naturally a good thing if someone takes the lead.

Qiu Ling said "OK" and walked to the tricycle of the bald stall owner.

The way of selling boxed lunches in Guangzhou is different from that in Harbin.

At present, there are 8 large iron barrels on the back seat of the bald stall owner's tricycle, 6 of which are filled with 6 dishes, three meat dishes and three vegetable dishes, one barrel is filled with free soup, and the remaining barrel is filled with rice.

In Yangcheng’s lunch boxes, rice and vegetables are packed separately.

There were still some unsold vegetables left in the bald stall owner's iron bucket, so he put a little bit of each dish in. Just as he was about to serve rice, he was stopped by Qiu Ling. If nothing unexpected happened, she would have to try a lot of other things next and might not be able to eat rice.

The three meat dishes are: fish-flavored shredded pork, spicy chicken, and stir-fried pork.

The three vegetarian dishes are: stir-fried lettuce, braised eggplant, and mapo tofu.

Except for the spicy chicken and stir-fried lettuce, the others are all good dishes to go with rice.

How should I put it? The taste was just average, and could only be considered ordinary home-cooked food. Of course, Qiu Ling had tasted so many delicious foods that her requirements were naturally high.

But according to the taste of the foreigners, these dishes can definitely be considered above average.

Looking more closely at the bald stall owner, he is a little fat but does not look greasy. His tricycle is not as dirty and black as some other stall owners', with years of grime on it.

He wiped every bucket of food very clean, and when he served the food to me just now, his fingernails were neatly trimmed, and there was no black dirt hidden in the gaps between his nails.

Choosing him can at least help you avoid finding hair in your food.

"I need two meat dishes and two vegetable dishes. I wonder how many of these lunch boxes Bald Brother can make every day?" After making up his mind, Qiu Ling asked.

The bald stall owner calculated silently in his mind.

He can sell about 180 lunch boxes every day, but in fact he makes 200 lunch boxes.

I usually cook three meat dishes and three vegetable dishes. Depending on the complexity of the dishes, it takes at least five or six hours.

But if you spend five or six hours making two meat dishes and two vegetable dishes, you can make at least 300 servings a day.

With the answer, the bald stall owner said hurriedly: "300 servings a day."

"Okay, 300 of them. I want them all." Qiu Ling made a decisive decision. "I will come to pick up the goods at 4 pm every day. You can pack the 300 lunch boxes and wait for me here."

Finally, Qiu Ling looked at the sign hung on the tricycle by the bald stall owner. It read: One meat and one vegetable: 3.5 yuan; two meat and two vegetable: 5 yuan; three meat and three vegetable: 7 yuan; all vegetarian: 3 yuan; soup and rice are free refills.

Qiu Ling mentioned in passing: "I will settle the money on the same day."

After hearing this, the bald stall owner felt much more at ease.

Customers like Qiu Ling are mostly paid on a monthly basis. Not only is the cycle long, but they also have to pay for the ingredients themselves in the early stages, which is much more risky than paying on a daily basis.

After hearing this, the other stall owners also raised their hands.

"Little girl, didn't you say you were buying in bulk? I also sell boxed lunches!"

"Come and take a look at my lunch box."

"My cooking skills are better than Zhu Guangtou's!"

Zhu Guangtou, the bald stall owner, snorted at the man, looking dissatisfied, but ultimately said nothing.

From the beginning, Qiu Ling knew that this street was already saturated with street vendors.

Some stall owners who already had good business would not choose to cooperate with Qiu Ling. With their abilities, they had already taken root in this street and had a very stable flow of customers. They had neither the need nor the time to cooperate with Qiu Ling.

Qiu Ling knew this very well, and also understood that most of the stall owners who recommended themselves had medium or poor business, but this type of stall owners accounted for the vast majority of the population.

This is why quality, quality and hygiene conditions vary.

Qiu Ling selected carefully.

Finally, out of the 16 stalls selling boxed lunches, I selected only 6 that met my standards.

Qiu Ling took out the small notebook she carried with her, wrote down everyone's name and menu, and gave instructions on some basic conditions such as food hygiene.

The six companies can produce a total of 6 lunch boxes, with the purchase price of two meat dishes and two vegetable dishes being 2000 yuan each.

Just when everyone thought the girl had achieved her goal and was about to leave, Qiu Ling said she wanted to collect more.

Next, Qiu Ling selected 12 small stir-fry stalls from the 4 stalls.

The first one makes pickled pepper shredded beef rice sets, and can produce 1 servings a day, with the purchase price being 180 yuan per serving.

The second company makes potato stewed pork ribs rice set, and can sell 2 servings a day, with the purchase price being 130 yuan per serving.

The third company makes 3 servings of the farmer's rice set a day, with the purchase price being 130 yuan per serving.

The fourth shop sells bamboo shoots and braised pork belly rice sets, and can produce 4 servings a day, with the purchase price being 110 yuan per serving.

We then selected two more kong rice cookers. We can produce 2 servings of bacon kong rice every day, at a purchase price of 80 yuan per serving; we can produce 8 servings of potato and green bean kong rice every day, at a purchase price of 100 yuan per serving.

We selected three stalls that made fried noodles. They sold 3 servings of vegetarian fried noodles at a price of 90 yuan per serving, and 5 servings of meat fried noodles at a price of 180 yuan per serving.

As for other snacks.

Qiu Ling took a fancy to Bozaigao, the owner of which was from Guangzhou. By chance, he came to Yangcheng to make a living.

The spring in Guangzhou is not warm now, and his business of selling bowl-shaped cakes is not very good. He is naturally happy to be chosen by Qiu Ling.

Red bean flavor, milk flavor, and corn flavor, together we can make 210 pieces a day, with the purchase price being 0.5 yuan each.

Qiu Ling suggested that they could make some fruit flavors, and the boss said he would go back and try it.

Everyone surrounded Qiu Ling and everyone said that they would complete the task seriously.

Qiu Ling looked through the bustling crowd and saw a young girl in the corner, who was looking at her with her fingers twisted, seeming to want to say something but stopping herself.

Perhaps because her eyes met Qiu Ling's, she mustered up the courage to say, "Hello, I, I sell rice balls..."

There was a small stool in front of the little girl, and on the stool was a foam box with the words "Meat rice balls 3 yuan each, vegetable rice balls 2 yuan each" written on them.

The stall owners around were whispering to each other.

"Who is she? First time meeting her."

"do not know."

"She has been here for half a month, right next to my stall. The little girl is very shy and doesn't know how to shout."

“Business is not very good.”

"Although rice balls are cheap, they are not filling. If you want to eat a full stomach, you have to buy two or three. With this money, you might as well eat a box lunch."

"That's it."

Hearing everyone's comments, the little girl lowered her head even more.

She looked only about 15 or 6 years old, and seemed extremely embarrassed because of the comments made by others.

Qiu Ling walked towards her.

"One of the rice balls, let me try it."

The little girl widened her eyes and looked up at Qiu Ling in disbelief.

This look seems to be asking, "Do you really want to buy it?"

Qiu Ling took out 5 yuan and handed it to the little girl. She finally reacted and took the money carefully and said, "Please wait a moment."

The little girl opened the foam box, and Qiu Ling saw that the rice balls inside were divided into two camps, with a lot of rice balls left in both camps.

The little girl covered her hands with her pockets and took out two rice balls from the foam box.

It looks very ordinary, just white rice rolled into a round rice ball.

But to be honest, the group meal is not as small as you might imagine. It is as big as an adult man's fist, and even people with small appetites can be full.

Qiu Ling didn't know which was meat and which was vegetarian, so she just took a bite of the rice ball.

As soon as I took a bite, I saw the filling inside the rice ball. It turned out to be a rice ball with minced meat and cowpea.

The rice was steamed to be soft, glutinous and chewy, and the minced meat and cowpeas were obviously stewed. The meat and cowpeas were cooked until they were juicy, then cooked over high heat and thickened with a thin starch to lock in the flavor.

The rice is wrapped with minced meat and cowpea, which is neither salty nor bland, but very appetizing!

Another vegetarian rice ball is made with sauerkraut and fresh lettuce leaves. The sauerkraut enhances the flavor, and paired with the crisp lettuce leaves, the taste is inexplicably harmonious!

If the food hadn't been stuck in her throat, Qiu Ling really wanted to swallow both rice balls!

The little girl is very young, but the rice balls she makes are delicious!
