Chapter 61: Turning into a Foodie (Happy New Year!Push, Collect, Reward, Thanks: Mo Mo Da~)
Lin Zitan looked at the back of Li Manrui's stubborn departure, and felt her greatness as a mother for the first time. I know best the hardships of working in the United States when I first came to the United States, he almost couldn't stand it as a man, Li Manrui stayed in the United States alone, no relatives, no support, the only capital except for her spoken language, probably only her appearance!
Thinking of this, Lin Zitan finally had a further understanding and understanding of Li Manrui, no matter whether what the crazy woman said just now was true or not, Li Manrui must have suffered a lot at the beginning!
In the past, he thought that it didn't matter if he didn't have an identity, as long as he had English, he should be able to live a little better, but now that he has a language and an identity, he understands how easy it is for some people to have those things that they once longed for.
Like Lin Zitan, he got a green card as soon as he came, and Li Manrui was admitted to citizenship, but he refused to become a citizen because he was very rebellious at the beginning, otherwise he would be a Chinese American now. But it was because it came so easily that the rebellious boy squandered his mother's love and forgiveness for him!
But fortunately, it is not too late for me to wake up now, although Li Manrui often hides her vulnerability with a strong posture, but as a son, Lin Zitan must also learn to take on the minimum filial piety. No matter how controversial this mother's choice is, she has always been very serious about loving her children!
。。。。。。
Lin Zitan and Zhang Jing's company has been officially operating for a period of time, and the cooperation with the Chen family father and son is becoming more and more tacit, although such a business cannot be as rewarding as stocks, but at least it can let Lin Zitan understand some of the process of starting a company in the United States. Purely as a training project, Lin Zitan is quite satisfied with the current investment.
That night, Chen Lin asked Zhang Jing and them to eat together at a foreigner restaurant in the city, which is a South American-style restaurant, and the business is also quite hot, in order to avoid the rush hour, they specially chose to eat on Tuesday night, or waited outside for almost 20 minutes for a seat.
"Lao Mei is really perverted, the more restaurants you have to queue, the more people will eat!" Zhang Jing looked at the crowd at the door and couldn't help but complain.
"Let's join in the fun~" Chen Lin said with a smile.
"What does this family eat?" Lin Zitan was very curious, Chen Lin knew Zhang Jing's violent temper, and even had to bring them to this house to eat.
"Oysters, lobsters, you'll know later!" Chen Lin said mysteriously.
"Why do you feel like you're a foodie, is there a restaurant in NYC that you don't know about?" Zhang Jing quipped with a smile.
"Life is short, be happy in time, your ambition is to pick up girls, my ambition is to eat, hehe~" Chen Lin didn't care about Zhang Jing's ridicule at all, and was serious.
"Then Lin Zitan's ambition is to make money!" Zhang Jingyi said.
"How do you know?" said Lin Zi with a smirk.
"Mr. Chen?" a few people were talking and laughing, and a foreigner waiter came out shouting Chen Lin's name.
"Alas, it's our turn!" Chen Lin waved for the other two to follow, and he followed the waiter towards the designated seat.
"Are these all oysters?" Lin Zitan loves seafood the most, and saw that there was a glass cabinet of oysters on the right hand side of the entrance to the restaurant, and a foreigner chef was using a special knife to pry the shells of the oysters one by one, and he couldn't help but salivate when he saw it, in his experience, these oysters were very fresh.
"Hey, let's go!" Zhang Jing walked at the back, watching Lin Zi walk and walk towards the pile of black and irregular stone-like shellfish in the glass counter, and he couldn't bear to look at it directly.
"Uh... Okay, let's go!" Lin Zi thought that this thing was delicious, and people like Zhang Jing definitely didn't know how to enjoy it, so he walked in front of him stupidly, thinking that he must have a good time tonight.
"I'll go, this restaurant is too small, and it's still poked and poked~" Lin Zitan sat down at the table where Chen Lin had already sat down, and complained in a low voice while observing the whispering foreigners around him.
"It's called fun, you know a P!" Zhang Jing was uncharacteristically unaffected by the crowded and narrow seat, and when he sat down, he reached for the menu on the table, looking at it with care.
"I'll go, this dish is so cheap, no wonder so many people line up to eat. Zhang Jing muttered while looking at it.
Lin Zitan also picked up the menu and looked at it, saying that it was a menu, but it was actually a very simple plastic list, with only two sides, and the first row on the first side was the oysters he had just seen at the bar.
Lin Zitan saw that the six oysters on the menu were only $8.99, and he didn't hesitate to order two or three dozens, but as soon as he raised his hand, he was blocked by Chen Lin.
"Don't order so much at once, let them come by a dozen, or the ones that come up are small," Chen Lin said with special experience.
"Alas, there are still like this!" Zhang Jing loves to eat sashimi, but oysters are generally charcoal-grilled oysters, and this is the first time he has eaten this kind of pry out and served on the table, and he really doesn't know the difference between size and size.
"But I have to eat two dozen estimates myself, can I order them first, and let them hit one dozen?" Lin Zitan said eagerly.
"I'll go, I didn't know you were okay before! But are you sure your tattered stomach can eat this?" Zhang Jing saw Lin Zitan so eager to eat for the first time, and couldn't help but remind while being curious.
"Uh... I, I should be able to, I haven't had a stomach problem in half a year!" Lin Zi hesitated.
"Oh, eat it first, let's talk about it, it's really not okay buddy to accompany you to have diarrhea!" Chen Lin didn't know that Lin Zitan had a stomach ulcer before, so he couldn't help but encourage.
"That's it, it's a big deal to have diarrhea and take stomach medicine, it's fine~" Lin Zi looked at Zhang Jing pleadingly, afraid that this guy would turn around and tell Li Manrui about his black state.
。。。。。。
"I'll go, it's really delicious!Especially these sauces, plus the umami of this oyster will be brought up in the future~" The three of them ate 5 dozen oysters in a row, Chen Lin also ordered the signature dish lobster rice in this store, for Lin Zitan's stomach, Zhang Jing also insisted on ordering him a lobster porridge.
"It's over, I'm going to eat again today, I'll go!" Zhang Jing stroked his stomach and lazily collapsed in his seat and wailed.
"Who asked you to rob it with me~" Lin Zitan said angrily.
"But I really enjoyed eating today, I'll have to give me one more!" Chen Lin couldn't help but be satisfied.
"Look at your little bit of talent!" Lin Zitan said with a smile, in fact, it was not that Lin Zitan ate less, the main thing was that he basically didn't move except for oysters, fried rice and lobster porridge.
"K, I just ate it just now, and I almost forgot about it!" Zhang Jing said suddenly.
"Oh, yes! We're here today to talk about business, and we're here to eat. Lin Zitan also woke up like a dream.
"Haha, it's okay, talk slowly after eating, just to eliminate the food. Chen Lin said unhurriedly.
"Actually, it's not a big deal, you're going to Pennsylvania when school starts, so does your father have a special arrangement for someone to connect with us? Lin Zitan said softly while sipping the first and last glass of wine in his hand.
"I've discussed this matter with my dad, I'll let a cousin connect with you first when school starts, and then I'll come back to New York once a week after my school is smooth, and I'll be in charge of it, so there won't be any mess." Chen Lin looked at the two of them and swore solemnly.
"That's the best, after all, the early plan is done by a few of our young people together, so as to save any mistakes, call your cousin out another day, buddies meet a few times, get to know each other first, although it is only for a short period of time, it is still good to know yourself and each other, especially our business has just started, and we must not be sloppy!" Zhang Jing also put away his casual attitude and said seriously.
"That's that, then next time I'll be the east, ask my cousin to come out and sit, but he is a rough man, and he hasn't gone to school much, if there is anything unsafe in talking and doing things, just say it, my father will definitely teach him a lesson!" Chen Lin said politely.
"Yes, cooperation, cooperation with each other... Zhang Jing said and raised his eyes to look at Lin Zitan, but the words he said showed no trace.
