Reborn in 1994, escaping from marriage and going sea fishing, I won!

Liu Meilan could hear the high spirits in her third brother's voice. "I get it, Third Brother! You and Sister Xiaomi should take care of yourselves and don't overwork yourself! It's too hard when you're young, and it will be even harder when you're older!"

Liu Yibang smiled and nodded. "I know all this. Xiaomi usually takes care of my three meals a day. We are fine! Don't worry about me! Is Mom home?"

Liu Meilan replied, "Mom isn't home. She's at the research institute! She's working on a project with my second sister-in-law and is very busy!"

Liu Yibang smiled and said, "Okay, I'll call Mom in the evening!"

After hanging up the phone, the hot and sour noodles were ready.

Liu Meilan brought three small bowls and divided the hot and sour noodles in the large bowl into three portions, even dividing the meat sauce and peanuts.

"Everyone, take your time and savor it carefully! See how it tastes and give your honest opinions!"

Xu Chongyang nodded, "I have a picky palate, I can definitely tell whether it's delicious or not!"

Wang Yuanyuan had already started eating with chopsticks. "Oh, it's a little spicy and sour, but if you taste it carefully, it tastes quite good! The texture of these vermicelli noodles is completely different from instant noodles. After soaking, they are plump and not sticky at all. I might not be able to bear to eat them every day, but once a week, I am willing to eat them."

Xu Chongyang ate with big mouthfuls, chewed carefully, and then scooped some soup with a spoon. "I like it. I can eat it twice a week. If I can have a crispy sesame pancake with it, it will be even better! The peanuts are very crispy and the meat sauce is very flavorful! If it is really sold in the market, I will recommend it to my classmates and friends."

Liu Meilan didn't listen to the children's words blindly. After tasting it carefully, her eyes lit up slightly. It whetted her appetite! She had a light breakfast and a rich lunch, so this should be a good dinner.

As the pace of social development becomes faster and faster, many people simply have no time to cook. Most of them just buy food or even order takeout.

Instant noodles, hot and sour rice noodles, and other foods that can be brewed are convenient and tasty, and are often a good supplement.

"It tastes really good!" Liu Meilan praised. "I'll make another one for others tonight!"

Wang Yuanyuan said with a smile, "Sister Meilan, can you give me a portion? I want to take it home and cook it for my grandma! I'm going to mix it with noodles to make it spicy and sour, and with rice to make it seafood-flavored!"

Xu Chongyang's eyes lit up and he looked at Liu Meilan, "Sister Meilan, if we add dried shrimp and kelp to this, and add some seafood seasoning, can it become seafood-flavored hot and sour noodles?"

Liu Meilan replied, "Then let's try it tonight! Yuanyuan, I've decided to give you two servings. You can make two flavors for each, let your family evaluate them, and tell me the results tomorrow!"

"Okay!" Wang Yuanyuan agreed readily and left with two bags of hot and sour noodles.

In the evening, Liu Meilan made a bowl of original hot and sour noodles by herself, and also made a bowl of seafood noodles with clams, razor clams, kelp and dried shrimps.

Everyone was very curious when they saw the new dishes on the table and came over to try them.

Mr. Wang and Mr. Liu are old and their sense of taste has deteriorated, but they highly praise the taste of hot and sour noodles, but are not very interested in seafood noodles.

As a local, Zhang Xiufang likes salty and spicy food. "I like the taste. If this is a local snack, I will eat it often!"

Professor Xie can't eat spicy food, but she can eat sour food, and she thinks the hot and sour noodles taste good; she also thinks the seafood flavor is good.

"Where did you get these things?" Professor Xie asked curiously, "Do you want to do business in this area?"

Liu Meilan shook her head and smiled, saying, "It's not that I want to start a business in this area. It's something that my third brother asked a food expert to come up with. It's an instant food made with local potato flour. It's actually an imitation of instant noodles. Just boil it in water for three minutes and it's ready to eat!"

Upon hearing this, Mr. Liu gave a higher evaluation: "I think this is feasible. Potatoes are grown in abundance there, and the purchase cost is low. After being made into hot and sour noodles, they can be kept for a longer time and can be transported to all parts of the country by rail."

Doctor Wang smiled. "Actually, this combination is quite reasonable. The spicy and sour flavors stimulate the appetite. It also contains meat sauce and dried vegetables. It's quite good."

After receiving praise from the whole family, Liu Meilan told her third brother after dinner: "We all think it's good, there should be a market for it!"

Liu Yibang actually asked people locally to try the food, but after all, it was the local people's taste and could not represent the whole country.

Now he has sent quite a few of them to his family and classmates, and has received feedback one after another. Everyone thinks they are good and says they are willing to buy them if they are available on the market.

Liu Yibang asked, "Then I can do it with confidence! We are currently seeking investment, are you interested?"

Liu Meilan replied: "Actually, if you want to do it locally, you can do it!"

Liu Yibang was at a loss for words. "If the local area had money, would it still need to attract investment?"

Liu Meilan smiled and said, "Actually, this project is really good. Won't the bank give us a loan?"

Liu Yibang smiled bitterly: "The first phase of investment requires 1000 million! In our area, this is a huge sum of money. If you lend it all to me, others will have no room for development!"

Liu Meilan thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll invest, but I suggest your local government provide the land and factory buildings, and then take a stake! Once everything is on track and profitable, both the local government and the wealthy locals can buy my shares."

Liu Yibang blinked, "Meilan, don't you think this investment is a good idea?"

Liu Meilan replied: "It's not that I'm not optimistic, but it's too far away. If I hold it long-term, the management costs will be too high! You can ensure everything runs smoothly in the local area, but I'm afraid that if you're not there, many things will be difficult to handle!"

Liu Yibang was slightly stunned, thinking of the various complicated local forces, and said: "Don't worry, in the next ten years, even if I get promoted, I will mostly be here."

Liu Meilan smiled. "That's fine! That's enough time! If it doesn't work out by then, I'll just sell the shares."

Liu Yibang laughed and said, "I'm also thinking of selling hot and sour noodles all over the country, just like those instant noodles!"

Liu Meilan explained, "After all, noodles are a staple food, eaten by people from all corners of the country. Vermicelli noodles are fine as a snack, but their market potential isn't as large as instant noodles. But our country has over a billion people, so as long as we do a good job and capture the market, we can still make money."

Liu Yibang breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good! So what should we name it?"

Liu Meilan thought for a moment and said, "How about 'Let's have a bowl'? That's a great name!"

"Give me a bowl of hot and sour noodles. It's delicious and chewy!" Liu Yibang blurted out, "That's a good name. I'll add it to my list of potential names."

Liu Meilan nodded, "Okay, I'll have the investment company in Hong Kong send a professional manager over there to discuss cooperation later!"

Liu Yibang smiled broadly, "Welcome, welcome, a warm welcome!"
