Traveling through shopping malls, making a fortune by selling instant noodles

After going to the toilet, Tang pushed a small cart and went directly to the supermarket area to have a look. He had a mission to complete today, so he would go to other places later.

This department store is very big. No wonder Xiaotang said that she and Linzhi haven’t finished shopping in the whole building even after such a long time!

There are so many floors with everything from eating, drinking and having fun. I must go shopping when I have some free time.

Tang passed by the beverage area and took a bottle of pure juice first. Seeing that the originally vacant position was immediately filled with another bottle of juice, Tang's eyes widened.

Although I have known for a long time that this department store has an automatic replenishment function, it is still very mysterious that it actually happens in front of me.

It's like watching magic on your phone and seeing someone perform magic in front of you in real life. The two shocks are different.

After a moment of shock, Tang pushed the cart directly to the rice shop, selected purple rice, black rice, and glutinous rice, and then soaked the rice before choosing other things.

I also went to the frozen food section and picked out pork tenderloin, salted egg yolk, meat floss, crab sticks, bacon, sweet corn kernels, shredded radish, seaweed flakes and other side dishes.

Originally, Tang Shi had picked up some pure meat sausages from the frozen section, but when he passed by a sausage grilling machine, he saw some tempting grilled sausages quietly rolling inside. Tang Shi immediately put the frozen sausages back. It would definitely be more convenient to use the ready-made ones!

And the sausage is grilled with oil, it must be good! So, I have to pick one up and taste it first.

It’s true, this pure meat sausage marked at eight yuan a piece is indeed tastier than the grilled sausage sold at two yuan a piece at the school gate. After all, that’s the price.

When I passed by the breakfast area, I saw some braised eggs cooking in the rice cooker. I thought it would be a waste not to use them, so I fished out quite a few of them, crushed some of them and put them in the rice balls, which tasted great too!

The sauces I chose were salad dressing, mayonnaise, and hot sauce. Of course, there was also the most important ingredient of the rice balls - fried dough sticks.

Both tender and crispy dough sticks are needed, but Tang only found tender dough sticks in the breakfast area. So I might as well fry some crispy dough sticks myself. It's very convenient anyway.

After selecting all the side dishes, Tang also picked a lot of baking paper to be used to wrap rice balls later. When everything was ready, Tang slipped out of the space again, put everything into the kitchen, and then called An to help.

"Mom, why did you buy so many things?"

Mrs. An was also shocked when she saw a lot of ingredients in the kitchen. These were much more than the ingredients her mother usually bought. Was it a dinner party tonight?

"We'll make rice balls later, like the ones in convenience stores, and send them to Xiaotang and the others.

I went to deliver lunch at noon, and they were too busy to eat. She was still thinking about buying rice balls from the convenience store for dinner. How could those be as delicious and nutritious as the ones I make right now?

Tang has also tried rice balls from convenience stores. How should I put it? The taste is just average. There are generally not many fillings in them, and there are almost no vegetables.

"Then mother, what should we do now?"

After hearing this, An quickly took off her coat and put on an apron. She was instantly filled with fighting spirit. No one could suffer but her two nieces! How could she be so busy that she didn't even have time to eat?

"First, cook the rice, then deep-fry the pork tenderloin and fried dough sticks, stir-fry some shredded potatoes, and make some seaweed salad. It'll be ready to assemble later. There's nothing special to prepare."

Mrs. Tang thought that with so many side dishes added, it should be rich enough.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were very skillful. Mrs. Tang used a large rice cooker to cook two kinds of rice, one made of black glutinous rice for making salty rice balls, and the other made of white glutinous rice for making sweet rice balls.

"Mom, this is oil. Why are you pouring oil to cook rice?"

When An saw her mother-in-law picking up the oil barrel and preparing to pour it into the rice cooker, she hurried forward to stop her.

"Add some oil so the rice will be softer and more fragrant."

Tang explained with a smile that this little life hack was something she learned when she worked in a restaurant in her previous life.

After hearing this, Mrs. An nodded, thinking that her mother was very knowledgeable.

After the rice was cooked and the side dishes were all prepared, Lu Yu and Fubao came to help. Strength lies in numbers, and the faster they wrap the food, the better, so they can deliver it to Xiaotang and the others more warmly later.

An was responsible for scooping the rice, then flattening it with a shovel and handing it to Tang.

Tang was responsible for adding ingredients and shaping the rice balls, Lu Yu was responsible for wrapping them tightly with paper at the bottom of the rice balls, and Xiaotuanzi was responsible for holding the cute stickers, sticking the wrapped rice balls on them and putting them in the thermal bag.

In this way, a small rice ball production line was formed.
