Chapter 83: The Man Behind the Pot
Su Qingzhi was stunned, what's the situation, how did these two foreign devils know about the old godmother?
"Sue, can you buy some of this for us, old - - mom, you know what? The taste is very, very good, it's just wonderful!"
Clement grabbed Su Qingzhi's arm, a man in his thirties and forties, excited like a child, his face full of anticipation.
"You guys wait here, I'll go out and see if there's anything for sale. β
Su Qingzhi felt that since these two foreign devils liked Lao Gan Ma, it was necessary for him to recommend another domestic delicacy to them - spicy strips.
Lao Gan Ma only started mass production in 1996, and has not yet gone abroad, even in a small place like Longyu County, it is rare, but spicy strips are different, small workshops can be seen everywhere, everywhere.
Of course, the packaging of spicy strips in many small workshops is simple, the shelf life and production date are not marked, and even the origin and manufacturer are not, only the two Chinese characters of "spicy strips" are written on the simple plastic packaging, and then there is a row of advertising slogans "delicious and inexpensive, cheap and affordable." β
It's really delicious, not expensive, cheap and affordable, Su Qingzhi bought 4 packs, only 2 cents.
This kind of three-no-goods, which contains a lot of preservatives, pigments, additives, etc., is harmful to the body and may cause cancer.
"Two friends from afar, try this, Chinese delicacy, rich in magnesium, iron, zinc and other nutrients, can effectively supplement the functions needed by the human body......"
He poured the spicy strips directly into the plate and threw the bag into the trash.
"What is this, is it really that magical?" said Robert and Clement, fiddling with their chopsticks curiously.
Su Qingzhi said: "This is a local specialty snack, translated into English called spicy gluten sticks, the taste is very good, you can try it." β
"Really?"
The two expressed skepticism, because it looks dry from the outside, which has nothing to do with the "color" in the "color, aroma, and taste" advocated by Chinese cuisine.
However, the two of them still picked one up with chopsticks, looked at it carefully, and then put it in their mouths.
"How's that?" asked Su Qingzhi.
The two of them chewed calmly, ate one and couldn't help but pick up another one, and then they praised it: "Oh my God, this is a gift from God, it tastes great!"
Su Qingzhi felt deeply sad for the two foreign devils, this group of turtles who only pay attention to nutrition but not taste can never understand the ultimate pursuit of "color, fragrance and taste" in Chinese food.
The braised noodles are here.
Su Qingzhi asked for the slightly spicy one, and pushed the two super perverted spicy ones to the foreign devils.
Spicy noodles with braised noodles, and Lao Gan Ma in the soup, this is probably the Chinese version of "dark cuisine".
"Wow, it's fun!"
Robert skillfully picked a piece of noodles with chopsticks and put it in his mouth, then chewed a large mouthful of spicy strips, scooped a spoonful of spicy soup with a spoon, and swallowed it in one gulp.
Clement saw that Robert ate so vigorously, imitated the script, and was so spicy that he was sweating profusely, but he kept shouting "enjoyable".
Su Qingzhi smacked his tongue, these two foreign devils are too fierce, this taste is not ordinarily heavy!
Two bowls of super perverted and spicy braised noodles were originally a prank, intending to punish these two cultural scum, but Clement and Robert were super spicy, and they made a delicious meal by mistake.
I don't know if those packets of spicy strips with three nos will have any chemical reactions, such as causing chronic diseases, or more directly, pulling a thin or something.
Lash?
Belch......
Su Qingzhi put down his chopsticks, this meal was inedible.
"Sue, why didn't you eat it?"
Robert took off his coat and let out a big gasp, the hotter it was, the more energetic it became.
Su Qingzhi said: "My stomach is upset these days, and the doctor said to eat more light things, and the braised noodles are too greasy to eat more." β
Clement took over and said, "That's a pity, you China can be called a kingdom of food, and there are countless delicious foods. β
Su Qingzhi said with a smile: "Eat more if it's delicious, and when the two friends leave, I'll give you two boxes of spicy strips." β
βNOοΌNOοΌNOβ¦β¦β
Robert waved his hand and said: "There is a saying in China called 'no merit is not punished', you have done us a great favor as a tour guide, and now you are taking us to eat such delicious, it should be us to give you two boxes of spicy noodles." β
Clement agreed: "And this old godmother, it's so delicious that you can't want it, and when we leave, we'll give you two bottles." β
Su Qingzhi in the spirit of "I don't want to be rich and regret to die", and said: "I don't want spicy strips, and I don't want an old godmother, just United States dollar." β
Robert simply took out a $5 bill from his pocket, stuffed it into Su Qingzhi's hand, and said with a smile: "When we leave, there will be $10 as a reward." β
Su Qingzhi pretended to be overjoyed, and said: "There is a saying in China called 'friends come from afar, and they are happy', and the two of them came to Longyu County from thousands of miles away, and I will definitely do my best to entertain the two of them to eat and have fun, and spend an unforgettable journey here." β
Clement and Robert looked at each other and smiled knowingly.
After eating, the three of them walked along the ancient streets.
Su Qingzhi introduced the customs of Longyu County and the ancient buildings around the Qianqing Guild Hall, but the two gringos were obviously absent-minded, one would look up at the sun in the sky, and the other would look down at Patek Philippe on his wrist.
Su Qingzhi wasn't sure what bad idea they had played, so he asked tentatively, "Two friends, why don't we enter the Qianqing Hall now?"
Clement patted the digital camera hanging on his chest and said with a smile: "Don't worry, the scenery outside is so good, I want to take a few more photos as a souvenir." β
The three of them came to Jade Street.
When the vendors on the side of the road saw that there were two foreigners, they instantly greeted them as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and the smiles on their faces could melt the snow of Kunlun Mountain for thousands of years.
"The people here are really welcoming......"
Robert sighed vigorously, his jacket was about to be torn by the vendors, and those aunts took all kinds of jade wrists and jade wrenches and stuffed them into their arms, and they couldn't stop it.
Walking on the jade street, although the two were also attracted by the dazzling array of small commodities on both sides, they did not have the slightest intention of wanting to buy, this behavior was too abnormal and attracted Su Qingzhi's attention.
"Two friends, buy what you like, don't worry about the price, I asked the boss for a discounted price. Su Qingzhi tried again.
Clement rubbed his eyes, put down a jade necklace in his hand, and said, "There are so many varieties of jade jewelry here, I don't know what to buy." β
Robert chimed in: "That's true, let's take a look first, don't buy the expensive ones but buy the right ones." β
Su Qingzhi's eyes narrowed suddenly, or did he have no intention of buying?
In this way, the two foreign devils may have stepped on it in advance, so what do they want to do as a tour guide?
"It's not rightβ"
He "chuckled" in his heart, and finally understood why the two of them had to be tour guides, this ^mother^ is a man who has arranged the blame in advance, once the matter is revealed, he will directly blame others!
