If I ask you to set up a stall, why do you always run to deserted places?

Chapter 2 This young man seems to have some skills!

Su Yun looked up and saw...

Three middle-aged men, carrying fishing rods and buckets, were walking along the riverbed towards this side.

A fisherman?

This river has been dry for two or three years, what are they fishing for?

Are you fishing for loneliness?

The three fishermen also noticed the food cart under the bridge and were visibly taken aback.

"Hey, Lao Li, am I seeing things? There's a fried rice stall under the bridge?"

The fat man at the front took off his sunglasses and rubbed his eyes vigorously.

"That's true!"

The tall, thin man next to him looked suspicious.

"Who would be so kind as to set up a stall in this godforsaken place?"

"Young man!"

The middle-aged man in the floral shirt came over and curiously examined Su Yun's food cart.

"You're setting up a stall here?"

Su Yun nodded. Wasn't that obvious?

Good guy!

The middle-aged man hesitated, carefully choosing his words, "You..."

"Are you a bit socially awkward since you're new to the industry, and you're deliberately finding a secluded place to practice?"

Su Yun: "..."

That explanation isn't entirely unacceptable.

"That works, that works too. Young people have ideas!"

The fat man chuckled and tried to smooth things over, "Let's practice until we're more comfortable before going to crowded places!"

After they finished speaking, the three of them carried their fishing rods and continued walking towards the other side of the bridge arch.

They actually found a small puddle.

Although the fish were pitifully small, judging from their posture, they were prepared to fish here for an entire afternoon.

Su Yun didn't pay any attention and continued eating her fried rice.

after an hour,

The three fishermen returned empty-handed.

To be precise, we didn't even see a fish.

As he passed the dining car, the middle-aged man suddenly sniffed.

"Can you smell anything?"

The fat man and the tall, thin man also stopped and took a deep sniff.

You mustn't tell, you really mustn't tell!

"It smells so good!"

"Is it fried rice with egg?!"

The rich aroma of fried rice filled the air, forcefully penetrating everyone's nostrils.

The three of them let out a growl almost simultaneously.

"Young man, how much is your fried rice?"

The middle-aged man swallowed hard and walked back.

"Ten yuan a serving." Su Yun stood up.

"Ten yuan?"

The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment.

to be frank,

Setting up a stall in this godforsaken place, he really had no confidence in the taste of his fried rice.

But he was so hungry.

"One serving, please." The middle-aged man gritted his teeth. "If it's not good, you don't have to pay."

Su Yun smiled, stood up, and tied on her apron.

"Okay, just a moment."

……

"It smells alright!"

The fat man and the tall, thin man also came over, sniffing incessantly.

"I just don't know how it tastes."

"I'd guess so-so," Li Jianguo shook his head.

"Think about it, if he really had any skills, would he be setting up a stall in a place like this?"

"That's true."

Su Yun ignored their whispers, picked up two eggs, and gently cracked them on the edge of the bowl.

The eggshell cracked open with a snap.

The golden egg liquid, coated with plump yolk, slid into the bowl without a single piece of eggshell.

Li Jianguo raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised.

Beating eggs may seem simple, but beating them quickly and cleanly requires skill.

Su Yun picked up her chopsticks and quickly stirred the egg mixture, increasing the speed.

The egg mixture quickly turned into a golden swirl, continuing until a layer of fine foam rose to the surface.

then,

Su Yun turned on the stove.

Blue flames suddenly shot up, and the bottom of the pot turned slightly red within seconds.

There was no rush to pour in the oil.

Su Yun first swished the pot around on the fire to ensure it was heated evenly.

Ok?

Wang Hai, the tall and thin man, was taken aback and straightened up involuntarily.

This young man seems to have some skills.

He lives alone and often makes fried rice with eggs, but it always burns inexplicably.

I later asked a master and learned that to prevent fried rice from sticking to the pan, you must preheat it evenly.

From this perspective, this young man doesn't seem like a novice.

How is that possible?

Before I could even have a question.

Su Yun slid a spoonful of oil along the edge of the pan, and the oil quickly bubbled up with fine bubbles under the high temperature.

Su Yun picked up the bowl of egg mixture and flipped her wrist.

The moment the egg mixture hit the pan, a rich aroma of eggs burst forth.

It's sizzling!

Golden flowers bloomed in the pot, and Su Yun's spatula moved as fast as a squid.

The egg mixture was quickly broken up the moment it solidified, the movement so fast that you could almost see the afterimage.

"Holy crap!"

The three fishermen widened their eyes simultaneously.

Su Yun held the pot in his left hand and the spatula in his right, flicking his wrist to send the rice in the pot tracing a beautiful arc.

His moves are frighteningly cool!

Not a single grain of rice was spilled!

Who told you to flip the wok like that?!

"Damn it!"

The fat man was terrified and couldn't help but swear.

Su Yun's movements became faster and faster, and the spatula flew more and more frequently.

Each grain of rice is thoroughly heated at high temperature and evenly coated with egg liquid.

The color gradually changed from snow-white to an alluring golden yellow.

Next, add salt, pepper, and a little soy sauce directly into the mixture!

The umami flavor is immediately enhanced!

The spice bottle flew up and down in Su Yun's hands, and the timing of each sprinkle was precise and just right.

Too early and it won't have any flavor; too late and it won't be flavorful.

At last,

A handful of bright green scallions are sprinkled into the pot, and a rich aroma that blends the fragrance of eggs, rice, and scallions bursts forth.

That was a really smooth operation!

The three fishermen were completely dumbfounded!

"alright!"

Su Yun turned off the heat and plated the food in one swift motion.

He pushed the golden fried rice towards Li Jianguo.

The three fishermen looked down.

The golden rice grains are distinct, each coated in egg yolk, and the aroma is so enticing it almost makes your eyes water.

Bright green scallions dot the scene.

The whole plate of rice was steaming hot, glistening with oil but not greasy, instead radiating a warm sheen.

This presentation...

It's completely different from what they imagined!

"this……"

Li Jianguo picked up his chopsticks in a daze, somewhat incredulous.

But he couldn't resist the aroma, so he subconsciously picked up a small amount and put it in his mouth.

Next second,

Li Jianguo froze on the spot.

hiss!

The moment the rice enters your mouth,

With a gentle bite, the thin layer of egg liquid on the surface of the rice grain is broken, and the aroma of rice and egg bursts out.

The egg and rice blended together perfectly.

The rice was cooked to the perfect consistency—neither too dry nor too sticky, with each grain distinct and chewy.

The aroma of scallions from the egg drop soup wafts out from between the egg and rice aromas, bringing a refreshing aftertaste.

The most amazing thing is the wok hei (wok aroma)!

The unique caramelized aroma left by stir-frying over high heat gives the fried rice an extra layer of distinctive flavor.

Bashi!

"How is it? How is it?!"

Wang Hai was so anxious that he kept rubbing his hands together.

"That's right, Old Li, say something!"

Li Jianguo ignored them.

He picked up another large chopstick and stuffed it into his mouth, his cheeks puffed out like a hamster's, and mumbled out a sentence.

"tasty!"

"This is so delicious!"

After saying that, he picked up another piece of food with his chopsticks, and then another piece.

Wang Hai: "..."

I rely on!

No, is it really that delicious?

At least leave us some!

They were both incredibly hungry.

"Young man!"

The fat man named Zhao Hu reacted the fastest, pulling out ten yuan and slapping it on the table without saying a word.

"Give me one too!"

"Me too!" Wang Hai quickly pulled out his money. "Extra scallions!"

"I want to try it and see how delicious it is!"
