Chapter Fifty-Nine: Food Relieves Thousands of Sorrows
I lost the 300 yuan bill for some reason, and I still couldn't calm down when I woke up in the morning, which was my food money for ten days.
But people always have to face the reality, get up early in the morning, breakfast is solved casually in the hotel, and you can't be late for a meeting at Party A's company.
However, I may be a little uncomfortable in Guangxi.
The MM who received me said that their boss, that is, the business manager who was going to meet my needs, had something to do temporarily and was sent to the grassroots on a business trip, and the meeting was canceled.
I asked her when the meeting would reopen.
She said that the time was undecided, maybe in the afternoon, maybe tomorrow, and left my phone number, saying that she asked me to wait in the hotel first, and then let me know.
Doesn't that make it clear to release my pigeons?
And it's long-term!
It's so angry!
But for the sake of not having to go to work, I put up with it.
But they said they would notify me at any time, so I didn't dare to go anywhere, depressed.
Empty, lonely and cold, these five words perfectly describe my trip to Guangxi.
"Ding Dong! Do you need help? ”
I don't know what you can do for me.
"Seeing that you are in a low mood, let me tell you good news. ”
What's the good news?
"The little skill has been upgraded!"
And that's good news? Aren't you upgrading every three days?
"This time it's different, I've upgraded a lot. In order to cooperate with the trip of Shasha Beauty to Guangxi, Xiaoji has been perfectly upgraded to a food automatic learning system. ”
What the hell is that?
"From now on, as long as you eat the food, you can automatically taste all the ingredients in it, whether it is fresh or not. ”
Isn't that a food connoisseur? You don't ask me to be a chef?
"Wait, don't worry, I'm not done yet. Not only that, but once you've eaten it, you'll automatically learn how to make it......"
Sounds good!
"Isn't it good! If someone wants to become a chef, they have to study hard, you just have to eat...... Eat...... Eat ......"
Well, it's so reliable, sister, thank you!
"However, the stock of Xiaoji is empty, if you want to succeed, act quickly! Follow Xiaoji's guidance and go where you need to go. ”
I just lost 300 yuan, and I don't have any money and I'm not in the mood to eat delicious food!
"Don't worry, this is Guangxi! A bowl of rice noodles is only five yuan in Guangxi......"
Is it really good for five dollars a bowl?
"Of course, don't you feel cold? ”
Deal!
Under the guidance of Xiaoji, I turned left out of the hotel door, walked about 100 meters, then turned right, crossed the street, and continued to walk about 50 meters.
The shop only sells rice noodles, but it is rich in variety, and according to Xiaoji, it covers the "three major rice noodles" in Guangxi and their derivative models, namely Nanning Laoyou noodles, Guilin rice noodles and Liuzhou snail noodles.
I've seen Guilin rice noodles and Liuzhou snail noodles on the streets of Xiamen, but they're not very tasty, so they may not be authentic.
It is said that the sour and spicy old friend noodles are appetizing in summer and cold in winter.
I looked at the price list, and today's meal is all it takes, and sure enough, it's only five dollars!
It seems that rice noodles are a representative of local snacks without class differentiation, and they are very people's livelihood.
Not only that, but this meal is great value, because the guy who served the food is so handsome.
He looks about 15 years old, still a young boy, with fair skin, three-dimensional facial features, and his appearance can be comparable to any of the dung digging boys.
At such a young age, it can't be a child laborer, right?
He was embarrassed to keep staring at the people, so I had to turn my gaze to the bowl.
The noodles are the kind of wide rice noodles that have a very soft and tough texture, unlike the clear rice noodles with gelatin that taste like plastic.
The ingredients are relatively simple, sour bamboo shoots, tempeh, minced meat, garlic paste, and the surface of the big bone soup is covered with a layer of red oil, which looks very delicious.
The whole bowl of rice noodles is filled with the aroma of sour bamboo shoots, tempeh and garlic paste, and the combination is unique and ingenious.
Take a bite, sour, spicy, salty and fragrant, it is really worthy of being Nanning's iconic special snacks.
Another bite, the taste is fresh and spicy, the soup is fragrant, appetizing and cold, and the price is cheap.
In the third bite, I was already sweaty and spicy, but I couldn't stop it.
Soon a bowl of rice noodles was in my stomach, and I didn't eat enough, which was really embarrassing, I already knew to order a large portion.
Do you want another bowl? But now it's almost seven points full, and I guess I can't finish another bowl, and I have to waste it.
Just as I was hesitating, the serving brother passed by my table, saw me staring at the empty bowl in a daze, and interjected:
"If you think it's delicious, you can have another bowl, if you look at it like this, you will eat the bowl!"
His voice is also quite tender, not at the same level as those older brothers, and the sound quality is as if it has been filtered, and it is crystal clear.
Although it has a very strong local accent, it still does not affect the degree of sound.
"I can't finish eating if I order too much, no, I regret that I ordered less just now. ”
"You can order one or two!"
"What one or two?"
"Oh, you're a foreigner! Let me tell you, we eat rice noodles according to two, one, two, three, two, five, three, two, seven, four, twenty, twenty, and ten yuan, and you just ate two taels. ”
"But I told the cashier that I ...... it."
"Those sisters are lazy and don't want to explain to you. But then again, girls generally eat two taels, some delicate, one or two still have some leftovers, like you, eat two taels and feel that it is not enough, I still see ...... for the first time"
Embarrassment, it's really embarrassing, being ridiculed by a dime boy for his appetite.
I'm thick-skinned anyway!
"Then one or two!"
"Okay, wait!"
It turns out that the weight of rice noodles also has local characteristics, and today it is considered to be a rising posture.
After another or two hot rice noodles, the feeling of hunger was finally completely expelled, the cold disappeared, and the mood became brighter.
Seeing that I was full of food and drink, the little brother who served the food asked while putting away the bowl, "How is it?
"That's right, thank you!"
"You're welcome, if it's delicious, you come often!"
"You're not the boss, why are you so enthusiastic?" This little guy is very cute, sister, I tease him.
"One more guest, I'll charge one more bowl!"
"Haha! I dare to love that your salary is calculated like this!"
"No kidding! really!"
"Okay, I'll come back again if I'm in a good mood at night!"
"Let's go, bye-bye!"
I finally understand why Mr. Qi hurriedly called me on a business trip, probably because he wanted me to have a meeting with the leader before he left, but unfortunately I missed it.
However, after eating and drinking, I figured it out, anyway, if I can't see the people of Party A, I should go out to travel and destroy the disaster.
I don't know where Xu Hui's development is going, maybe as soon as I go out, he will start playing games.
It doesn't seem useful to think about it, anyway, I've already promised people that even if he loses, it won't be good to encroach on his restaurant again.
