Chapter 274: Restaurant News

He gave his commander a serious salute and shouted, "Obey!"

The tapper left the director's office and went to the hall on the first floor to assign tasks to the brothers.

Starting from the third and fourth teams patrolling tonight, they will inquire in the city about who has the news of the son of the Ying family.

In Ding Xiaoyu's eyes, this trivial matter should be an extremely simple matter.

According to the oral statement of the wife of the Ying family, Ying Shida disappeared after skipping class from the Jicheng campus, and the garrison soldiers who entered and exited the city did not have a little impression of the entry and exit of the young master of the Ying family.

As long as it's in town, it's easy to find.

But who would have thought that when their police station searched for it like this, they searched for several days and did not find any useful clues.

Yingshida seemed to disappear inexplicably, which made Ding Xiaoyu, who had no clue, very crazy.

Just after he was yelled at by his own chief for his bad work, the grief-stricken secretary of the bureau drank in a particularly inconspicuous small restaurant next to his house.

The size of this restaurant is a fly hall that can only hold two or three tables.

It stands to reason that Ding Xiaoyu, who can earn dozens of oceans a month, should never sit down and eat in such a place.

But everyone doesn't know the reason why Ding Xiaoyu likes to have a drink here.

The reason is that the old man in charge of the spoon here is average in his cooking, but he has a unique skill, making the best salted fish stewed radish in Jicheng.

Although this Jeseong is the provincial capital, it is definitely an inland city in the interior.

If you want to eat some fish and shrimp, you can only catch some freshwater fish from inland rivers and lakes such as Daming Lake to satisfy your cravings.

If you want to eat seafood, it's not nothing, but now the freshest seafood from the Jiaodong Peninsula is transported here, and in the dog days, when it is transported to Jicheng, it will become stinky fish and rotten shrimp.

If you really like to eat seafood, then what you eat in your mouth is soaked in dried food.

And this Jiaodong salted fish is the most inexpensive one among the seafood products.

If you have a little money left over at home, even ordinary people can eat it every few days.

It's just that this salted fish seems to be an excellent ingredient for people by the sea, but there are not many cooks who can do it well in Jeseong.

After all, the difference between the cuisines of Luxi and Ludong is not half a star.

So the salted fish stewed radish in this small restaurant in front of Ding Xiaoyu's house is simply too rare.

Just by looking at the name of the dish, you can know how this simple dish can be delicious, so I have to mention the origin of this old man who opened a restaurant.

He is just like Shao Nian's family, all of them are Jiaodong people who migrated from the seaside.

It's just that Shao Nianshi's parents didn't have much money left, and their family chose to build a home in a more remote village.

And this old man from Yancheng was able to buy this small one-acre and three-point land in the inner city of the provincial capital, even if it is only a dozen square meters, but it is also a door-to-door house on a small street.

This old man also relied on this small gatehouse to feed a large family.

I think that although their property in the concession area was only exchanged for their current life, they did not have to beg for a living under the hands of foreigners, nor did they have to live a life that they did not know when their family's house and land did not belong to them...... Xiao Lao'er is still very satisfied with the current result.

At the same time, in the process of moving with their families, they also brought with them the delicacies that belong to the sea.

After all, although their family has moved to the land of Neifu, who still lives on the Jiaodong Peninsula without some relatives and friends, and can provide a steady stream of unique hometown food for the family?

This is the confidence of this old man to open this small restaurant.

Because in their small restaurants, even if there is only this one dish, it is enough for them to survive.

After all, this dish, except for the green radish produced in the hands of vegetable farmers on the outskirts of Jeseong, the rest of the ingredients in this dish, even the usual salt and the noodle sauce for the rice, without exception, are all produced in the Jiaodong Peninsula, hundreds of kilometers away.

The salted fish in the salted fish stew is made from mackerel caught in the deep sea at the inlet of Jiaodong Bay.

Only this kind of huge sea fish with thick flesh that can grow to about two and a half meters in length and the heaviest weight can even exceed 200 catties can be dried out of the main material of stewed salted fish that is still thick and thick even if it is dehydrated.

Because the mackerel itself has very few spines and the middle bones are relatively large, after being stewed with the radish, even if the heat is slightly larger and the stewed time is longer, it will not be stewed into the radish because the fish is looser than other meats, and the fish bones that are not easy to enter the mouth will be stewed into the radish, resulting in a poor taste in the mouth.

Only this kind of fatty fish can inhale a fuller sauce, and the fresh saltiness of the coarse sea salt, the thick aroma of the smoked noodle sauce, and the plump fish fat inhaled after stewing can feed back into its own refreshing radish juice...... All of them are absorbed into the body to achieve a sense of taste balance, so that even the most ordinary ingredients become extremely delicious.

People like Ding Xiaoyu like this taste very much, not to mention the low-level people around who don't have much money to go to the big restaurant, they love fish and meat here.

No, the person sitting at the table behind Ding Xiaoyu is a scavenger who can't eat anything good on weekdays.

They spend their days wandering around the garbage dumps outside the city, searching for something that can still be used in the midst of the garbage.

Most of the time I don't have enough to eat, only when I occasionally get lucky, I get a few things worth a few copper yuan, and after buying daily needs, I come to this small restaurant to fight tooth sacrifices.

After all, although mackerel is a marine fish, it is abundant in production, large in quantity and inexpensive, and even two green-skinned radishes can be found in the wilderness.

Even if it is a meat dish, it does not exceed the price of a dozen or twenty copper plates here.

If you come less, seven or eight copper rounds will be enough to fill your stomach.

So today, after the two scavengers who got a big deal sold the proceeds from the pawnshop at the front street corner, they spent some small and medium-sized money to come over for a good meal.

In fact, their income today is more than what they have earned in many months in the past.

After completing this order, these two scavengers, who are always in company, even plan to use this small amount of floating wealth to buy some needles and threads, and push them to the villages under Jeseong County to sell.

When a small businessman who lives on meager profits, he can get rid of the dirty and smelly business he is now and earn a way out for himself.

Probably because they were too hopeful for a bright future, the two of them drank a lot of wine with a large bowl of salted fish stewed radish with an increased amount and price.

After the smell of alcohol came up, some of the things that could be said and what could not be said were secretly said by them.

The two scavengers hiding in the corner don't know that some people are naturally sensitive to certain things and news.

And the things and people they talked about related to the surplus wealth they got were exactly the news of the people Ding Xiaoyu who was sitting in front of them wanted to know.

Scavenger A: "Hey, why do you think the clothes on the young man we picked off are so valuable?"

"Not to mention, the inner lining is actually made of silk. ”

Scavenger B: "Isn't it? He still has two rings on his hands." ”

"Just one of them is gold, and you get several oceans, how much do you think that emerald jade wrench is worth?"

Speaking of this, the two of them obviously lowered their voices, and they also knew that if the origin of such a good product was unclear, they were afraid that they would be hacked by others.

This is also the reason why they dare not go to the pawnshop to die, who can guarantee that if such a previous object is lost, then the owner of the pawnshop will not play black for its value, right?

The people at the bottom have the wisdom and intuition of the people at the bottom, but they never thought that in the small restaurant that the lowest people would come to, there was an inconspicuous person who had an extremely close relationship with those who were at the bottom.

As the two drunken scavengers walked shoulder to shoulder to their temporary residence, they were blocked by a stranger at the first intersection out of the restaurant.

The man was dressed in the short-cut outfit that the lower class laborers loved to separate from the top to the bottom, but the material of the clothes on his body was a little strange.

Ordinary people wear some piercing linen clothes, but this man has made such ugly clothes out of fine muslin cloth.

And because the pure noodle clothing will be wrinkled as soon as you sit down, it's no wonder that these two scavengers didn't see anything wrong with Ding Xiaoyu in the dim environment of the small restaurant.

"Two, stay here, I heard that you have caught good goods?"

"I don't know if you can show me? You don't have to worry about asking for your things in vain, I'm looking for someone recently, if this thing has nothing to do with that person, I'll give it back to you, and I will definitely not rob you of your chance." ”

When the two scavengers arrived at this time, the drunkenness on their bodies suddenly sobered up by three points.

Their mouths were bitter and their hearts trembled, for the man standing opposite them was friendly, but in his hand he was holding a shell gun larger than a normal pistol, and the black muzzle reflected the cold light, facing the middle of the two of them.

Even if they didn't want to give Ding Xiaoyu a look, they didn't have the guts.

So, the two scavengers hurriedly took out a small bag and rummaged in it for a long time before they found the innermost wrench and handed it to the killing god who suddenly appeared in front of them.

"It's ......"

This wrench finger went to Ding Xiaoyu's hand, and he took it to the middle of the air to look at the moonlight for a good time, not to mention the side, just to say that the color of this wrench is a wonderful thing.

The jade wrench finger is transparent but not floating, and the green and verdant on the top half is not scattered, and the color can be called the best, but Ding Xiaoyu's eyes are not on such a superb jade, but he has been groping along the edge of the wrench, as if he is looking for some mark.

"Found it, sure enough. ”

Thanks to this Ding Xiaoyu's carefulness, if ordinary people don't take a closer look, they really can't find that the bottom of the inner wall of this wrench finger is carved with three small characters in a miniature carving technique.

The word is clearly a person's name, representing the identity of the owner of this wrench.

And those three words are the people that Mrs. Ying got rid of with the fanfare of their director.

Seeing this, Ding Xiaoyu snapped and held the wrench in his hand, he raised his eyelids and asked the two scavengers in front of him, "Where did you get this thing?"

"Why don't I ask more directly, you took this thing from the dead man, right?

"If you point it out to me so that I can find it, if I can't say it, I can't find it...... Don't say that the good days of the two of you in the future are over, I'm afraid that even tonight's wine will be eaten in vain. ”

This naked threat made the two scavengers on the opposite side not hold back, poof, poof, and knelt down for Ding Xiaoyu one after the other.

Living in the garbage heap for a long time has taught them the way of survival of ants, and they kowtow to Ding Xiaoyu while banging hard, and at the same time tell everything they know.

"I say, let's say everything!"

"It was indeed taken from a dead man. ”

"But we didn't kill that man. The two of us were scavengers in the garbage dump west of the city, and we never only rummaged through the garbage, but we never hurt anyone. ”

"The body was a young man who had been accidentally found in a garbage dump three days ago. ”

"I was going to run back to the city and report to the police station, but this young man was dressed appropriately and brought a few very valuable gestures. ”

"The two of us brothers were dazzled by so much money, and by the time we reacted, we had already stripped off all the underwear and pants of this corpse. ”

"The silk undergarment, and a gold ring on his tail finger, I sold it to the pawnshop and made a dead pawn. ”

"You've seen the rest, and it's in your hands. ”

"We don't know what that corpse has to do with a big man like you, we just want to make a fortune from a dead man, and have a small business to live on. ”

After these two people finished speaking, they kowtowed and didn't dare to be idle.

The man with the gun on the other side fell into deep thought as if he hadn't seen it.

He was probably struggling with what to do with this matter, and only after he figured it out did he tell the two people in front of him his decision: "Where is that corpse now?"

The scavenger duo glanced at each other, and a hint of joy gradually appeared on their faces: "We were afraid that the body would be discovered by others, so we moved it out of the garbage dump, moved it to the mass grave next to it, and found a deep pit to bury it." ”
