Reincarnated Chef: Rise Of Culinary Tycoon - 60 The truck is done
For several days later, all I have to do is cooking the dish that will be sold in the food truck. Ming Er always becomes the taste tester. I tried some new recipes and some combination of fried rice like what I’ve suggested before. The result is not disappointing, Ming Er said that my cooking is good, just like what served in the five-star restaurant.
Besides cooking for our restaurant menu, my time is spent checking places that potential for our selling point. Tourism object, places where people gathering, checking how other food business doing in that places, try to have the relationship with food seller in that places too. Well, I don’t want to see as a person who takes other people income thou. With that checking, I can compare how much food they give for one serving, the price and of course, the taste too.
Since we get married the next day after we met the first time, these activities can be considered as having a date with Ming Er. Walking together on the pedestrian walk, holding each other hand, buy food on the peddler and eat it together, and discussing the food that we just eat together, about the taste, the price, the serving, the looks, etc.
I also learn in this era, usually, people who just get married go on honeymoon to exotic places. But when I ask Ming Er if she wants to have honeymoon like other people, she gives me a sweet answer,
“Hubby, each minute that I spend with you is already like a honeymoon. I don’t need to go anywhere, all I need is to be on your side”
After hearing her answer, my heart feels warm and I secretly promise to take her on vacation to some exotic place when our business is steady and prosperous.
Exactly one week after my brother in law bring the truck to our place, in the morning, he called Ming Er on the phone and tell that he about to take the truck from the modification workshop today. He asking if he should deliver the truck directly to our restaurant or we want to see the truck in the village
“Hubby! Brother He said that the food truck will finish today. He asks if the truck should send here or we wait in my parent village?”
“Let’s wait in your parent village, besides it’s been a while after our visit to your parent. We can also take fresh vegetables from there and I can learn how to drive a truck in there too”
“Um, I’m preparing our bag then”
“Don’t bring too many clothes. We only spend one or two days there”
“No, I won’t. We still have some clothes left there, hubby”
So, we take the bus and go to Ming Er’s parent village once again and wait the food truck arrive there. My parent in law looks happy when see us coming, especially my father in law who demand me to cook for lunch today.
“Son, I’m glad you visit us again. The taste of that food that Shao He brought from your house is still lingering in my mouth. Today I want to feel that taste again, it’s not a hard request, right?”
“No problem father, I’ll make that for today’s lunch”
“Very good…you can use any vegetables in the storage. You know the place, right?”
“Sure, don’t worry father, I will not get lost in here”
“Hahaha…you know how to make jokes too, son”
Since my father in law wants to eat the dish that I’d send here last week, I just take the ingredient I need from storage and start cooking, while Ming Er takes the time to talk with her mother. Maybe she wants to tell her mother about her pregnancy progress. Well, I let them have their own private times together, besides, the dish that I prepared is not too complicated to make.
Our lunch is merry as usual like when we visit Ming Er parent last time, only brother Shao He is not back at lunchtime. Maybe he still in the workshop, checking our food truck before brings it back to the village. And just when we finish our lunch, there’s a honking sound from outside the house. We all go outside to see what happened there.
In front of the house, a white truck is parking there. Brother Shao He sits on the driver seat with a wide smile on his face.
“Hey, brother You! Your food truck is done. I could bring it back sooner but I must check it first before taking it back to the village. Check it out, tell me if there’s something that not suit you”
“Thanks, bro, why don’t you get some lunch first? There’s still some food left for you on the dining room”
“Really? Then I go eat first. You take time looking on your truck”
“Hubby! Let’s see it!”
Ming Er seems to get impatient to see our food truck. Brother Shao left the truck cabin and handed me the truck keys. Besides the ignition key, there are some other keys on the key holder. Maybe those keys are keys for the cargo box.
“Alright wifey, let’s take a look the outer part first”
We walk circling the truck to see it looks. On both sides of the cargo box, there are written in the big letter ‘Youming Delicious food’ with our logo attached there.
“Wifey, our truck looks good”
“Um. Looks sturdy and able to go for thousand miles. Please help us make a living, truck san”
Ming Er said while patting the truck body. I smile when hearing what she said. Well, she not saying something wrong thou. This truck will be our mean to get income, we will depend on him to bring us selling the food everywhere. I have a great expectation with this truck for our future, my future, my wife future, and my child future.
