This business card. Or a calling card. In fact, it is not Yu Zhiqiang's, but a person named Yu Zhibing. There is a phone number under the name, but there is no job title.

When I turned it over and looked at the back, it was a blank space.

Ye Kai put away this business card and looked for a car at the airport to go to Luzhai.

Longcheng is not a very developed city, or the province of Gui Province is not very developed, although the economic growth is good, but there is a lack of opportunities to show its face in the country.

Luzhai is in the northeast of Longcheng, and the process of taking a car is the same as coming to Longcheng from the airport, going over mountains and mountains along the way.

By the time Ye Kai got off the bus in Luzhai County, it was already close to five o'clock.

When you walk out of the station, you will see a series of houses, with a building under construction on the right, a residential area on the left, and a residential community on the opposite side, as if the entire station is surrounded by a large residential area.

Luzhai is not Ye Kai's destination this time, he came out to eat, and he has to take a car to continue to a small town in Luzhai after a while.

The final drop point was in a village, but today I was definitely looking for a place to rest in the town.

There is only a supermarket as far as the eye can see around the station, and there is no place to eat a hot meal at all. Ye Kai took out his mobile phone to check the map and found a Guilin rice noodle shop on the right side of the station.

Rice noodles, one of the treasures of the people of Gui Province.

Out of Guilin Province, you can also see that many cities have opened Guilin rice noodle shops, but there is a certain gap in taste between the total way of eating in other places and the birthplace.

Walking towards the rice noodle shop, you can smell a faint stench at least 500 meters away, and the closer you go, the stronger it gets. But it's not getting smellier, it's getting fresher.

Fresh and smelly are constantly intertwined.

Ye Kai walked into the store and said, "Boss, come to a bowl of rice noodles." ”

"Good. ”

The accent of the people here is very strange, a long time ago, the people of Longcheng spoke the southwestern official dialect, which is a dialect somewhat similar to the Sichuan provincial dialect, but later absorbed the pronunciation of Guangdong Province, and it is quite different from the southwestern official dialect.

Fortunately, Ye Kai was rewarded by the system for Chinese at the beginning, and he could understand a small part of the local dialect. However, if you want to improve, you have to go to another country where Chinese is the official language and get a second Chinese reward.

While waiting, Ye Kai kept frowning at the smell of this stench.

He knew what it was.

Snail noodles.

Rice noodles in Guilin, snail noodles in Longcheng. It is a very famous food in the country, and a pack of vacuum-packed snail noodles can be sold for fifteen yuan, but on the price list here, two or two sell for seven yuan.

It may taste good, but it smells a little uncomfortable to others.

After the rice noodles came up, Ye Kai hurriedly started eating.

Ye Kai often eats rice noodles when he is at home, and he eats less rice noodles. In terms of taste, rice noodles taste soft and glutinous, after all, they are made of 100% rice, which is different from rice noodles with potato flour.

The salty aroma is strong, and there are side dishes such as hot and sour beans, hot and sour bamboo shoots, and the presence of chili oil also enhances the umami taste of rice noodles.

If there is no taste of snail noodles, Ye Kai can give this bowl of Guilin rice noodles eight points. Next time, let's try what snail noodles taste like and why so many people are addicted to this dish.

To exist is to be justified.

As a senior foodie, as long as it is not expired and spoiled, Ye Kai feels that he can try it.

An hour later, Ye Kai arrived in Moon Town.

It's a small town, there are no buildings with more than 10 floors, most of them are houses built by people themselves, ordinary bricks and stones, and the outside is covered with pale red or white tiles.

Ye Kai walked along the street for a long time, but he didn't find any organized communities, at most there were three or five houses in a community. Hidden behind the street, passing through the alley is the neighborhood.

Janitor? What's that?

found a hotel on the main road to put his luggage, and Ye Kai walked out with a video camera to go shopping. Ye Kai has lived in Sweet City since he can remember. I don't have any relatives in the family who live in the town or the countryside, and after graduation, I work in Rongcheng, one of the top cities in China.

He had never been to such a small inland town, so he felt it was full of novelty.

Although it was getting dark, there were still vendors on the streets with tricycles full of fruit. Occasionally, you can see some aunts sitting on the curb with a wicker chair in front of them.

After seeing Ye Kai, they shouted, "Handsome guy, shine your shoes." ”

It turned out to be a shoeshine one.

The smell of snail noodles can still be clearly smelled here.

I don't know what the principle is, the smell of snail powder can be transmitted to a long distance, and Ye Kai can determine the location of the snail powder across the street. The taste is so penetrating.

At this time, a group of people dressed in national costumes walked back from outside the town. In fact, it is rare for the current young people to wear such heavy clothes at home, is there any festival today?

When passing by Ye Kai's side, many people glanced at Ye Kai, Ye Kai's outfit looked a little brilliant in this town, and the well-built hair and the SLR camera in his hand were different from the atmosphere of the town.

But smile is the most beautiful and friendly lingua franca, and Ye Kai understands this very well. He smiled warmly, and the muscles around his eyes contracted unconsciously, making Ye Kai's eyes also have a charming smile.

"Hello. ”

Several beauties walking beside Ye Kai looked at each other inexplicably, and then laughed, and said to Ye Kai, "You are good, who are you?

"yes. ”

Seeing that they answered his words, Ye Kai followed the girls together, and chatted for a while by the way, he still didn't know why so many people came back from outside together.

"What's the event today?"

"There's no event, we're rehearsing. ”

"Rehearsal?"

Ye Kai quickly recalled the festival in March in his mind, but he only remembered the Qingge Festival on the third day of the third lunar month, which was not the same thing as the third day of March in the solar calendar.

He suddenly realized a problem.

The third day of the third month of March is not far from today.

Ye Fa let out a sigh of emotion and said, "So that's the case, is it the event of March 3rd? I started rehearsing so early." ”

The girls covered their mouths and laughed, they still paid attention to their image in front of the handsome guys, and subconsciously did not dare to smile without showing their teeth at all......

"Yes, practice early, maybe there will be a chance to go to Dragon City to perform a nickname......"

"Then I'm late today. Ye Kai said, "I just arrived in Gui Province today, to be honest, I haven't seen too many people or houses with ethnic style, and meeting you is my biggest surprise today." ”

The introverted girl's face turned red all of a sudden, and gradually red to the root of her ears. Ye Kai realized that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly skipped the topic and asked

"Are there a lot of young people here?"

"It's not a lot. ”

Fortunately, there was no one else around them, otherwise Ye Kai would probably have a meal of white eyes, or something else......

If we weren't wearing it, the girls would be no different from the people we see in the city and on the streets. They do not speak the language of their own people, but Mandarin with the flavor of the dialect of Gui Province.

Hearing Ye Kai speak so clearly, they would still be shy.

It's just chatting, and many times you don't even need to understand everything to understand what a person is saying.

The place they were going to was to the end of the town, Ye Kai did not follow, but turned around and continued to wander around the town. After agreeing, take a picture of the aunt who shines her shoes.

Ye Kai stood on the side of the street to check the photo he had just taken, but a loud noise suddenly came from not far away, as if the tires of a big car suddenly exploded, which frightened Ye Kai's heart violently.

The SLR didn't hold it steady, and it fell down the moment Ye Kai's hand was released.

But it's good to hang the belt, otherwise I would have to die of distress.

Touching the SLR with his hand again, Ye Kai breathed a long sigh of relief and touched the cold sweat that didn't exist on his forehead.

What was it that blew up? Ye Kai thought to himself.

The people around didn't seem to be surprised, and no one looked at the place where the incident happened, but Ye Kai was very curious, and followed the sound of the explosion and walked around a corner and came to another street.

There are a lot of clothes sellers on this street, but they are all stalls, selling masks, underwear, and trinkets.

The thing that made the explosion was just around the corner and the first position.

A man took a black, white smoke cylindrical object and poured it into the basket, and the smoke was so strong that he couldn't even see what was inside the basket.

White smoke drifted along the wind through Ye Kai's nose.

It smells so good!

The man held an iron rod in his right hand, and the bell struck on the black cylindrical iron pot, as if trying to knock off something stuck inside.

The smoke gradually dissipated, and what appeared in front of Ye Kai's eyes was a ...... with a strong aroma Popcorn?

So this is old-fashioned popcorn?

Ye Kai only saw that there was such a way to make popcorn in the textbook, and it was only the first time he had seen it with his own eyes. This thing is so loud, is it really not going to explode?

It's kind of scary.

Not far from the man, a woman was wrapping popcorn in a bag. The way she tied the plastic bag was also different from Ye Kai, holding the ear of the pocket and rotating it a few times and tying a slipknot to seal the bag firmly.

Ye Kai walked towards the woman and asked, "Boss, how is this popcorn sold?"

"Three dollars a bag. ”

She put the freshly sealed hand on the table, put it with the other bases, and asked, "Buy a bag, it's delicious, many people come to my place to eat this popcorn." ”

Ye Kai noticed that there were many people around here carrying corn kernels and waiting in line.

There was a WeChat money collection code printed out of paper on the table, Ye Kai took out his mobile phone and scanned three yuan, and asked the woman, "How long does it usually take to pop such a pot of popcorn?"

"About ten minutes. ”

As he spoke, the man poured some more dried corn into the iron pot.

Ye Kai noticed that the container they were holding corn kernels was marked with a black pen, and they could only hold so much at one time. Ye Kai guessed, any more words may cause the explosion to fail?

He hadn't studied the principle of this thing, but it seemed interesting and new.
