The time to make the roast duck is relatively short, and the heat is mastered, that is, it is a matter of tens of minutes, so it is not long after lunch, and the roast duck is baked.

As soon as the mouth of the urn was opened, the pungent smell of meat could not be stopped, and it spread unscrupulously on the street, which made many people who had not eaten yet obeyed their legs at all.

"What's that, so fragrant?"

"You don't need to ask, of course it's meat!"

"I just looked at what it looks like is being cooked here, let's go, hurry over and take a look. ”

The benefits of the stove on the street are undoubtedly revealed at this moment, where there is still a need to solicit, and the guests are all running over to smell the aroma by themselves.

Li Yadong used a homemade hanging rod to take out the eight roast ducks one by one, and then placed them on a large table specially moved out of Cai Xiaohui's house, on which was also placed a basin of palm-sized white flour cakes, as well as shredded green onions, cucumber shreds, and simple sweet noodle sauce.

"This thing is roast duck, right?"

"No, I've heard people talk about it before, but I haven't eaten it, and I can't imagine that some of us here will do it. ”

"It smells so good, and the price is not cheap. ”

There were more and more onlookers, and gradually a circle was formed, everyone stared at the fragrant roast duck and swallowed their saliva, but strangely, no one opened their mouths to ask the price.

Li Yadong knew that this was a manifestation of doubts about his purchasing power, holding a sharpened large kitchen knife in his hand, and shouted with a smile, "Beijing roast duck, a dime a piece, Tong Su is not bullied, there are only eight a day, please hurry up if you want to eat." ”

"How much?"

The onlookers still thought that there was something wrong with their ears, no one would be stupid to think that a dime could buy a whole roast duck, and look at the vegetables, cakes and sauces on the table, there are obviously other ways to eat, but when can you eat meat for a dime?

Or roast duck from the capital?

The yearning of people in this era for the capital is unimaginable for future generations, and how many people will be able to go to the capital once, take a look at Tiananmen Square, and climb the Great Wall as the greatest ambition in this life. Everything in the capital is so admirable, like that bright five-star red flag.

The roast duck in front of me was confirmed to be the way to eat in the capital in the midst of everyone's gossip, and the aroma that came to the nose evolved more into a feeling.

For the vast majority of people present, there is probably not much opportunity to feel the grandeur of the capital in this life, so this roast duck in the capital has become something that must be eaten.

For a dime you can not only eat meat, but also taste the taste from the capital, and no one wants to miss it.

"I want one!"

"I want both!"

"I'll buy it for eight cents for the whole body. Obediently, the roast duck in Beijing, can you take it back to your family to taste?"

There were too many customers, Li Yadong was tired of coping, and lifted the kitchen knife to his chest, "Come one by one, all line up, if anyone dares to mess around, I won't wait!"

Zhang Chunxi and Cai Xiaohui next to them were also taken aback by the scene that almost caused the robbery, and hurriedly helped to start, Li Yadong was in charge of slicing meat, and they spread sauce and cabbage on the dough cake and collected money.

Eight roast ducks last for an hour at most, and the main processing is a little troublesome, and if customers pick it up like tea eggs, I'm afraid it won't take ten minutes.

When closing the stall, Li Yadong used an enamel basin to carry the money in, and the last three of them counted it together for a long time, a total of eighty-seven yuan and four cents!

It includes the money for five pairs of duck racks, and there are three pairs left, and each family will get one pair at night, so that they can make a duck rack soup. It's not a valuable thing, and Li Yadong is not worried about his mother's nagging.

"Xiaodong, I finally know now why you don't look down on the sale of tea eggs. Zhang Chunxi looked at the pile of gross tickets arranged on the table, and felt that the whole person was confused.

The eight ducks were collected by him, and he knew exactly how much it cost, and there was no such huge profit in the world in his mind. People are more popular than people, when he is still complacent about earning three or two dollars a day, people can earn fifty yuan a day!

Fifty yuan, he can buy an old 28 bar, that's what he has been thinking about for a long time.

"Okay, you kid don't eat the bowl and look at the pot, make the tea eggs first, and when I make roast duck, you can take a look at the side, anyway, I won't be doing it long, if you really learn, can I still stop you from selling?" How could Li Yadong not know his little bit of caution.

"Yes!" Zhang Chunxi slapped his thigh violently and said excitedly: "Why did I forget this, you are going to college!"

Li Yadong couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard this, "You have no conscience, you just want me to go?"

"Hey...... That's not it, that's not ......"

"That...... Yadong, do you think I can learn this roast duck?" Cai Xiaohui is estimated to be stimulated by so much money in front of him, this sentence is obviously a bit brainless, how can he directly grab a job in front of his nephew?

"Yes, why can't you learn?" Li Yadong pointed at Zhang Chunxi and said: "Just his clumsiness, can one person be able to turn it upside down? ”

"Then dare to be kind, auntie, when the time comes, you will slaughter ducks, I will be responsible for collecting ducks and roast ducks, let's throw off our arms and do it, why can't we make a hundred yuan a day?" Zhang Chunxi's eyes lit up, fantasizing about the days when he counted the money and counted until his hands cramped.

"Okay!" Cai Xiaohui also smiled from ear to ear, there was no land at home, so she pointed to her husband's salary to live alone, and life was actually not easy. And she doesn't have a job, she is basically an idler except for taking care of her children, but now she has such a lucrative business, and she can do it at home, can she not be happy?

It's still early, Zhang Chunxi's tea eggs are almost out of the pot, there are dozens of them horizontally and vertically, and there is no need to help, Li Yadong ran to the town alone.

He was no stranger to this town, and if everything had gone according to its original trajectory, in a few months, he would have entered the town's Anping Middle School to teach, and he would have stayed for eight years.

Thinking back to the past in my mind, I walked aimlessly under my feet, but it was natural to come to Anping Middle School.

The school was very broken, and there was not even a doorman at the door, so Li Yadong walked in in a grand manner.

The most luxurious building at present is a two-story building made of red bricks, where the students study, and the conditions of the teachers are very difficult, a row of mud houses, which are both offices and dormitories.

Li Yadong walked to one of the doorways, looked at the simple door made of broken wooden slats, and stood quietly for a while, this house carried almost the memories of his entire youth in the past.

"Are you...... Parents of students? Or are you looking for someone?"

Suddenly, a crisp voice interrupted his thoughts, Li Yadong turned his head to look and saw a lovely face buried deep in his memory.

Lanjing, this girl is as dazzling as her name, and once left a strong mark in Li Yadong's ignorant love, and all his fantasies about a woman began with her.

The two used to live next door, and she was probably the first woman Li Yadong ever liked. It's just a pity that Lanjing didn't choose him later, but married another young teacher, who was a relative of the principal's family.

Since he missed it in his previous life, Li Yadong didn't want to bother in this life.

Two failed marriages in his previous life made him somewhat wary of a creature like a woman.

His first wife was a southern girl, he was working in a restaurant at that time, the girl did not dislike him, the two experienced the most difficult years, and even ignored the opposition of the woman's parents, secretly took the household registration book to register.

He thought that she would be the love of his life, but the marriage between the two only lasted for half a year. The reason is simple, she found a rich family for her at home, and it was very close to home, she met with the man in private, and then wavered.

This marriage taught Li Yadong a truth: women are impulsive creatures and are very fickle.

After that, he was depressed for a while, but the silence was followed by an outburst, and he began to work hard, spending a few years apprenticed to a good cook, then had his first restaurant, and five years later opened a second one.

It was about '08, when he had hundreds of thousands of dollars in savings, and then he met his second wife, an unknown graphic model.

She is very beautiful and has a good figure, Li Yadong probably didn't really love her at first, but he was obsessed with her beauty, and he paid a terrible price for it.

She is a person who does not wear a brand, always chasing the front line of the trend, in order to maintain her figure, she is not even willing to have children, saying that it is needed for work, and the two have quarreled several times about it, and finally they are gone. Li Yadong once ridiculously thought that the speed at which he made money must be worth the speed at which she spent money, isn't the money just for his wife?

He satisfied her temporary enjoyment, but could not satisfy her inner desire, the first few years after marriage was quite restrained, and then about realized that her husband was very profitable, the desire gradually expanded, she began to travel around, traveled around the world, spent money like running water, Li Yadong was finally overwhelmed.

The marriage between the two lasted for ten years, and after Li Yadong went bankrupt, she left him, she was only thirty-two years old, and it was impossible to keep a man twenty years older than her until she was old, especially since he still had nothing.

On the night when the two of them completed the formalities, Li Yadong was very drunk, and he vaguely remembered that there was a car accident on the way home, the car caught fire, and the pedestrians on the street did not dare to approach, only a woman took out a fire extinguisher from the car and risked her life to put out the fire, trying to rescue him.

The woman with shoulder-length short hair left a glimpse in Li Yadong's life, and now it seems that she should have failed, but I don't know if she is in danger?

This is a thing that keeps Li Yadong awake at night.

"Hey, are you alright? Hey......"

Lan Jing's shout pulled Li Yadong from his memories to reality, and he smiled apologetically, "I'm sorry, I was thinking about things just now, and the person I'm looking for is not there, thank you." ”

After speaking, Gu Lanjing still wanted to ask something, so he turned around and left.

Thank you – these two words are both thick and light. See you again in this life, perhaps the best way to express Li Yadong's mood.

Thank you for leaving me a young and ignorant memory, I am fine, and I wish you all the best in this life.
