Gourmet: Midnight Vending

Chapter 156: The Early Bird Gets the Noodles


While the lamb chops are still marinating, Chen Mo can cook the noodles.

He took a ladle of lamb soup from the black pot, and casually stretched a portion of noodles out, adding seasoning to the bowl waiting for the noodles to be done.

The Feng Family's Three Brothers and Yu Hui watched the noodles rolling in the white lamb soup, their mouths watering, each having only just eaten a portion.

"Forget it, if I eat another bowl of noodles, I definitely won't be able to eat the lamb later. I'll hold back," Yu Hui said through gritted teeth.

The three brothers agreed with this, lamb soup noodles are delicious, but no matter how good noodles are, can they compare to meat? And it's lamb!

At Xiao Huang's table, Yang Zhou was very curious, "Big brother, what's he making that these people are just waiting? Is it that exaggerated?"

Shao Hailong was reluctant to admit it but still nodded, "This boss makes really delicious food, you'll know once you have a bowl of noodles later."

Standing in front of the food cart, pretending to wait for food, Liu Yang occasionally observed Shao Hailong and the other with his peripheral vision.

He was thinking about how to start the arrest operation later.

According to the intelligence, this theft gang consists of at least six people, as seen from the previous surveillance at the highway service area in Jin Province.

At that time, the gang was on the highway, usually committing crimes at night, stealing oil from trucks at service areas.

'Now there are only two people, can't rush it, better wait and see!'

Chen Mo cooked the noodles, and Liu Yang enthusiastically helped serve them to Xiao Huang's table, "These noodles are really delicious, and by the way, my buddy is about to make lamb with scallions, super tasty!"

Shao Hailong grunted impatiently, not wanting to talk much with strangers.

Yang Zhou intended to ask what's going on, but seeing his big brother like that, he didn't speak, just took the noodles Liu Yang brought, smelled them hard.

The slight lamb smell mixed with the fragrance of green onions and cilantro rushed into his nostrils, having eaten instant noodles for days, Yang Zhou couldn't stand it, without a word he mixed the noodles and started eating.

Just one bite.

Yang Zhou looked at Shao Hailong in disbelief, his eyes full of affirmation!

Unexpectedly, it's really delicious!

"Brother, how about we let the brothers have a bite before working?"

Shao Hailong nodded, "Okay. I already notified them, gather at nine to eat, and start working after eating."

Not every operation does Shao Hailong give Yang Zhou the heads-up in advance, as doing so consistently might make the members aware of something, which is not good for group unity.

Today's food is so good, Shao Hailong thought, he might as well wait for the members to come, and they'll all do it together! Besides, he already got 10,000, so why not!

With the cupboard's function, marination is faster than usual.

Chen Mo brought out the bowl with four lamb chops, sniffed it, it basically had no gamey lamb smell, but a rich aroma of various vegetables and lemon.

"Anyone still want noodles? If not, we'll use up all the lamb soup!" Chen Mo glanced around, anyway, there aren't many people at Cultural Square.

Yu Hui and the Feng Family's Three Brothers definitely weren't eating anymore, they were waiting for the lamb.

Liu Yang and Wang Zhifeng even more so, as this was their idea.

LuLu wasn't eating any more either, waiting for the lamb.

So this question was mainly for Shao Hailong and Yang Zhou.

"I'm not eating anymore, had two bowls," Yang Zhou said, holding the bowl slightly lower to reveal his eyes, looking at his big brother puzzled, "You're full after two bowls?"

When everyone indulged after a hit, Shao Hailong's appetite was known to be big, able to wipe out about ten pounds of big bones alone.

Such delicious noodles, only two bowls?

"Half full, but I won't eat anymore today."

Upon hearing this, Yang Zhou immediately understood, Boss Shao said he's done eating, but he's probably waiting for the lamb, right?

That makes sense.

When Yang Zhou came over just now, he didn't head to Cultural Square immediately. His professional habit made him stroll around Dakang Stronghold before coming.

This village is relatively large, most villagers went to Jin Family Manor for a market event today, they'll only start returning by afternoon.

Sweeping such a big village would take at least two to three hours.

Timing was just right for the lamb.

'Boss Shao kept a card up his sleeve!'

Understanding the reason, Yang Zhou thought having two bowls of noodles wouldn't fill him up, a bit more lamb surely wouldn't be an issue, "Alright, give me another bowl!"

Can't miss out on noodles just because there's meat!

Chen Mo quickly cooked another bowl of noodles for Yang Zhou, Liu Yang handled bringing it to the table.

Then he put the four marinated lamb chops into the big black pot, and after scooping out all the bones from the big iron pot, set the boiling lamb soup aside to cool.

Another long wait...

"You all can actually take a stroll, no hurry to return until it's done," Chen Mo said.

So many people around his food cart, even using a bit of superpower was inconvenient.

Liu Yang laughed, "Just love watching you cook live, the more we watch the hungrier we get, and it tastes even better when we eat."

Sweat!

Chen Mo didn't want to engage with Liu Yang, if not for him, he'd cook this dish eventually, just not now.

To cool down quicker, Chen Mo sat on a stool in the food cart, scooping up the lamb soup and pouring it back into the pot, speeding up the process.

Just then.

The parked Cadillac beside shook a little.

Dunzi, exhausted from a day's work, felt sore sleeping in the car, but at least he had a beautiful dream.

In the dream, he saw Boss Xiao Chen make a lot of good food, one of which seemed to be made with lamb, the aroma was tantalizing.

He also dreamt of Boss Xiao Chen mixing a big bowl of noodles, making them into noodles, then mixing with the lamb dishes.

He ate five big bowls!

Half asleep, Dunzi opened his eyes, looking at the car ceiling, retrieved a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, thinking today no matter what Boss Xiao Chen makes, he must eat double his usual amount!

Dunzi took two strong puffs of the cigarette.

A night of sleep led to a nicotine deficiency quickly being resolved, he felt a bit more energized, pushed the car door open, stretched vigorously.

"Hey?"

Dunzi saw two people at Xiao Huang's table, and noticed several around the food cart, "LuLu, what are you doing? Waiting to eat?"

LuLu looked embarrassed, "I... already ate."

Ate? Good, Dunzi happily walked over to the food cart, "No point in waking up early, better to wake up right in time, no more words needed."

Dunzi saw the menu.

"Give me five bowls of lamb soup noodles as per the menu."

Yang Zhou, who was eating noodles, almost choked on a mouthful of soup, who the heck just straight up orders five bowls of noodles, can you even finish them?

Chen Mo, too, was as embarrassed as LuLu.

"Bro, lamb soup noodles are finished."

Dunzi: ???

He tilted his head to glance at Xiao Huang's table, "Aren't they eating it? How come it's finished?"

Chen Mo told him, "The early birds get the noodles, you woke up too late, we aren't making noodles anymore, switched to something else."

What the heck?
