Gourmet: Midnight Vending

Chapter 454 - 386: Buying Ingredients at the Kindergarten?

Urine eggs?

It was the first time Chen Mo had heard of something like that. Before he came here, Chen Mo would have shown a disgusted expression.

But now it’s different. Earlier, he tried the buckwheat haozi, and there was no rat meat inside.

If that’s the case, can there really be urine in urine eggs?

Chen Mo certainly doesn’t believe it.

Since the other party wanted him to judge whether this small business could be done, he decided to kill some time as he wasn’t in a rush to head to Taiwan.

For Chen Mo now, the journey and the scenery along the way were far more important than the destination.

Plus, if a small business of around three thousand Yuan could truly change Sun Jianhong’s life, Chen Mo wouldn’t mind sharing some secret recipes to help him acquire a livelihood skill; in fact, he was happy to do so.

However, before making a judgment, Chen Mo still wanted to understand the situation more thoroughly.

"Jianhong, first tell me where you plan to set up a stall to sell urine eggs. By the way, when I came here, I felt our village wasn’t suited for street vending."

First, it’s not a tourist village, and second, the village population is sparse.

It’s entirely incomparable to the Hanyang Town I visited before.

"Of course, I won’t set up the stall in the village. I’m planning to rent a stall at the night market in the city and get a handcart."

Speaking of this, the round-faced Sun Jianhong was full of energy, speaking passionately and gesturing enthusiastically.

"Bro." He changed how he addressed Chen Mo, "I tell you, I’ve been scouting for several days now. That night market is crowded, starting from six or seven until past midnight!"

Chen Mo nodded. Before coming here, he used a system to check, and that place is Dongyang’s largest night market. Although the various snacks sold there are pretty much the same nationwide, the business is indeed good.

"It only costs five hundred Yuan a month to rent a stall. I’ll spend two thousand Yuan on a handcart, keep five hundred as starting capital, and I feel like I’ll recoup the money within a month!"

Seeing the confidence all over Sun Jianhong’s face, Chen Mo felt it wasn’t that difficult.

He remembered the first time he set up a stall, the turnover was astonishing, leading him to decide to keep vending.

"Starting from the second month, it’ll be all profit! Haha, after working for a year, I can rent a shop, and in three years, I can..."

Seeing Sun Jianhong sinking into his fantasies, Chen Mo quickly reached out, "Stop stop! In my opinion, whether this can work should start from the basics. When are you making urine eggs?"

Sun Jianhong snapped back to reality, "Right now!"

He then turned to Sun Jiante, "Watch closely, the customers will definitely find them tasty, and then you’ll lend me the money, right!"

Sun Jiante sighed helplessly, "Alright, it’s settled then. If the customers say it’s good, I won’t lend; I’ll directly give you three thousand. If the customers say no, don’t think about it anymore, agreed?"

"Agreed!"

Chen Mo suddenly felt a significant responsibility on his shoulders and was soon dragged up by Sun Jianhong, "Bro, if you’re not in a hurry to leave, come with me first to a place."

"Where to?"

Sun Jianhong didn’t say directly but instead shouted toward Sun Jiante’s direction, "Just wait and watch the show!"

Saying this, he pulled Chen Mo out of the yard, "Bro, I’ll take you to buy the ingredients first."

"Alright, let’s go."

Seeing Sun Jianhong preparing to set off with a ham, Chen Mo beckoned to him, "Hop in my car; you navigate, I’ll drive."

Seeing the trailer food truck at the end of the path, Sun Jianhong’s eyes lit up, and he ran over, circling the Xiao Huang car three or four times, "Bro, is this your car?"

"Yeah."

He stroked the front, "Is this an RV, the kind you can sleep in?"

"Correct."

Then he stroked the back, "This is a food truck, the kind you can vend from?"

"Yes."

Sun Jianhong stood frozen, taking several deep breaths, "My gosh, this is too formidable. If only I had such a vehicle, Bro, this must have cost a lot, right?"

This time Chen Mo didn’t say much, "Hurry in, or it’ll get late."

"Alrighty!"

Under Sun Jianhong’s direction, Chen Mo navigated through the village and finally stopped at the entrance of a school, with a sign that read "Big Windmill Kindergarten" hanging at the gate.

"That’s right, Bro, this is the place, park here."

"Kindergarten?" Chen Mo was quite puzzled.

"Yes, we have to come to this place to get ingredients for urine eggs; the materials elsewhere have too strong a flavor, but here’s are the purest. Bro, did you see?"

Sun Jianhong pointed to clusters of people squatting and chatting at the school gate, "They’re all here to buy stuff, competing on who’s faster and who pays more."

"A rush sale?" Chen Mo felt completely at a loss, "What exactly are you buying?"

Sun Jianhong was very earnest and full of anticipation, "Boy’s urine!"

Sigh.

Chen Mo waved his hand in boredom, thinking this guy must be joking and didn’t take it seriously. Instead, he asked about something else, "By the way, are there many students in this kindergarten?"

"Not too many, but not too few, about forty or fifty."

For a village kindergarten, having so many students was indeed quite a lot, "What time is dismissal?"

"Four o’clock, in about an hour."

Chen Mo thought about it and refocused on the panel in his mind, noting this week’s operating hours were from 2 PM to 5 PM.

Earlier, he was busy with Jiang Fei’s banquet arrangements and didn’t vend, plus this time slot wasn’t ideal for street vending; it’s scorching summer, and few people come out for street food.
