Chapter 14 - Chapter 14 - 14 Medium Lottery (2/2)

[Congratulations to the host for activating the medium-level lucky draw, 10,000 points per draw.]

Seeing the system message, Chen Yu subconsciously checked the information beside it and found that the slot for the previous 100-point draws was for the low-level lucky draw.

These points were all hard-earned, and at 10,000 a pop, Chen Yu truly hesitated to part with them.

After a moment’s consideration, he clicked on the low-level lucky draw.

[Lucky draw result: None!]

Chen Yu was immediately shocked, which meant he had just wasted 100 points for nothing.

Indeed, you get what you pay for!

Gritting his teeth, Chen Yu directly selected the medium-level lucky draw.

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining a new skill, deep-fried vegetable dumplings!]

Then a flood of information windows popped up before his eyes.

Chen Yu was instantly overjoyed, meaning that from now on his food cart wouldn’t just have sweets.

Although deep-fried vegetable dumplings and sugar cakes were both fried, their preparation and techniques were entirely different.

It seemed that making vegetable dumplings was more complex than sugar cakes, with a variety of techniques and points for attention, making Chen Yu feel that this wasn’t just about dumplings, but about crafting a work of art.

Fortunately, there was only one flavor.

However, for this one flavor, the filling required over twenty different ingredients, resembling some sort of secret recipe.

This time, the system also included several phone numbers, presumably those of ingredient suppliers it had automatically selected for him.

Even though the system had just swindled him out of 100 points, this feature was quite considerate, saving him a lot of time in sourcing the ingredients.

Without hesitation, Chen Yu immediately called these suppliers.

According to the proportions given by the system, he ordered ten pounds each of beef, lamb, pork, and codfish meat, forty pounds of leeks, forty pounds of cabbage, ten pounds of mushrooms, ten pounds of seasoned tofu, along with various seasonings.

The beef and lamb were thirty yuan per pound, while pork and codfish meat were eight yuan per pound. The leeks, cabbage, mushrooms, and seasoned tofu were supplied by one vendor, who provided them all for one yuan per pound.

All together, the total came to exactly one thousand yuan!

When making sugar cakes, the ratio of flour to filling was one to one, so there were still five bags of flour left from the first day.

Without any surprises, there would be ten bags left today.

Since flour can be stored for a long time, Chen Yu had bought a little extra when stocking up.

The afternoon would be a good time to try frying some vegetable dumplings!

With a plan in mind, Chen Yu didn’t rest anymore but got up and continued making the semi-finished sugar cakes.

At twelve o’clock noon, the deliverymen from the three companies arrived with the ingredients for the vegetable dumplings almost simultaneously.

After calculating the time, Chen Yu dared not rest anymore, and only moved a chair to sit and continue working.

By three o’clock in the afternoon, all the sugar cake ingredients had been made into semi-finished products, and the food cart was packed full.

If the space hadn’t been large enough, it probably wouldn’t have all fit!

After a quick inventory, there were nearly ten thousand pieces!

Based on the sales experience of the past two days and to be strict, the ingredients today should be able to produce twenty thousand fried cakes.

But even with the system’s support, Chen Yu’s hands weren’t precise enough, leading to an excess of around a hundred or so from the morning.
