Yunkang took the elevator down, and when he walked out of the high-rise apartment building, he found that the community he lived in was so beautiful.

When I came back last night, it was too dark, and I didn't see what the community looked like. Looking at this living environment during the day, it is simply intoxicating. There are patches of flowers and plants, green willows, ponds, fountains, small gardens, and even public fitness equipment.

A cobblestone path curved and extended, and Yunkang felt comfortable walking on the pebbles in skateboarding shoes.

The location here is within the Third Ring Road, which can be described as an inch of land, so people who can live in this luxurious community are definitely rich or expensive.

Yun Kang looked east and west, and sighed with emotion.

In the past, when he was in the Jindan period, in order to hide the deeds of the immortals and hide people's eyes, he chose to build villas in remote places and live a petty bourgeois life in his own courtyard. There is Internet and wifi, playing games and watching football games, and being a quiet otaku, which rarely appears in the central area of the metropolis.

So I was used to being quiet and alone, and when I suddenly came to live in a bustling city, I felt very lively. This is the fashion capital, there are many hipsters, many beauties, and many new gadgets.

While watching the scenery, Yunkang walked away from the community, thinking about what to eat. It's easy for me to live a mortal life, and I don't need to fast, I just have a big appetite, but I can't treat my mouth and stomach badly.

Let's start eating from the eight major cuisines, experience one cuisine and one cuisine, and taste the essence of local cuisine. When I think of the food, I immediately have a big appetite.

He raised his hand and touched his pocket, "Huh! "I found that I had no money on me. All the cash adds up, and there are only two coins for a piece of five cents.

Of course, in addition to the two coins, he also carried a check for five million. If you go to a special small restaurant to eat, you can't use the check, maybe someone will treat it as a bully meal and throw it out to him.

Although Yunkang is not afraid of being thrown away, it is not a big deal, but it is a bit too embarrassing, and he still wants to live in the community and leave a good impression on the neighborhood.

A piece of five cents, I don't know if it's enough to eat a roadside stall.

Another way is to go to the bank to deposit the check first, and then you can eat and drink. However, banks in big cities are inefficient and often queue for hours. By the time he had deposited the money, it was getting dark, so he had to eat lunch and dinner together.

What's more troublesome is that the bank account opens a mobile phone to receive the verification code, and Yunkang now has no mobile phone and can't get a bank card. He thought about it for a while, and felt even more hungry, and the method of saving money first would not work. All in all, you have to eat your lunch before you go to other things.

Fortunately, there is a narrow street outside the side gate of the community, and there are food stalls on both sides of the road during the day and night, selling some mutton skewers, fried chicken, cold skin, grilled gluten or something. Nearby residents are tired of eating their family's meals, so they come to the food stall to drink beer and skewers, and it is also very lively for three or five friends to get together. Especially in the summer evenings, a narrow street lined with food vendors stretches for hundreds of meters, making it a famous snack street in the neighborhood.

Yunkang carried a "huge amount of money" of five cents, from the main entrance of the community all the way to the snack street, the punctual time for lunch has not yet arrived, but on the stalls on both sides of the road, there are already sparse guests sitting down to eat.

Each stall has a sign with a clear price on it, and the price of various meals is written. Yunkang put his hands in his trouser pockets, turning left and right as he walked, trying to find the cheapest stall.

5 yuan for cold skin, 7 yuan for hot dry noodles, 8 yuan for cold noodles, 10 yuan for vegetarian rice, 15 yuan for meat rice, and 17 yuan for beef noodles in casserole......

He read these prices in his mouth, and his heart was cold, when did the price grow so fast, and his piece of five cents was only enough to buy a tea egg.

When he was a master of the Jindan period before, he never considered the question of how much money he spent, anyway, he had no concept of the price of goods by swiping cards and transferring money online. Now that I have bought things with cash, I find that it turns out that mortals are so expensive to eat and drink.

Yun Kang was unwilling to be hungry, his eyes glanced at the stalls on both sides, like he looked so handsome, it shouldn't be a big problem to find a small shop to eat a bowl of noodles. The money for a bowl of noodles is not much, and it is not enough to let the boss smoke him, so if it is not good, he will pay on credit, and then send the meal money over in the evening.

He touched his chin, and it seemed that if he wanted to eat this lunch, he could only rely on brushing his face.

Yunkang looked around for a young girl in a stall, under normal circumstances, the girl's face was thin, and if she ate a bowl of rice for nothing, the other party would definitely be embarrassed to take it seriously. What's more, he is handsome, and if he laughs at her twice more after eating, he may be able to make friends.

Glancing over, I soon found a ramen-making stall, crammed into an inconspicuous corner.

A girl in her twenties was washing vegetables, boiling water was boiling in a pot, and there were five or six crooked tables in front of the stall, and there was not a single customer.

Yun Kang quietly looked at the girl, with a round face, a small nose, fair skin, long eyelashes, and two pear vortices at the corners of her mouth.

From the perspective of physiognomy, a woman with such a good appearance is gentle, cheerful and generous, and kind-hearted.

"That's her." Yunkang has chosen a goal, as long as he meets a kind girl, his face-brushing plan can be successful.

Yunkang stepped forward to pick a place to sit down, and when the girl saw a guest coming, she quickly wiped her hands with her apron, ran up and said, "What do you want to eat, my family has a signature beef noodle, which is an old soup made of beef bones, do you want to try a bowl?" ”

"How much is a bowl of beef noodles?" Yun Kang looked up and asked. He could already smell the aroma of the beef broth, and it was so mellow and inviting that it made his saliva come out.

"Fifteen and one bowls." The girl replied crisply, looking at him with big eyes and an earnest gaze. Yunkang is the first customer to open the stall at noon, and if he orders beef noodles, the later guests will see it and ask for beef noodles.

"Well, fifteen is a bit expensive, how much is the cheapest noodle in your house?" Yunkang shook his head, rejected the girl's recommendation of beef noodles, and continued to ask her.

"Yangchun noodles, three yuan." The girl looked Yunkang up and down, seeing that he didn't look like a person with no money, and thought it was very strange, couldn't even afford a bowl of beef noodles, and actually asked for the cheapest noodles.

How did she know that Yunkang only had a piece of five cents in his pocket, and he couldn't even afford the cheapest Yangchun noodles.

"Bring me half a bowl of Yangchun noodles." Yunkang put his hands on his knees, sat up straight, and said seriously: "I only have this money." "Put two coins on the table, three pieces for a bowl of noodles and five pieces for half a bowl, and he can still afford it.

The girl was stunned for a moment, and then she realized that Yunkang didn't have enough money, so she couldn't order beef noodles.

Her face was slightly red, and then she pursed her lips and smiled: "If anyone wants half a bowl of noodles, I'll cook you a bowl, you sit and wait for a while, and Yangchun noodles will come immediately." As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves and went to the stove to cook noodles.

Yun Kang looked at her busy figure, a smile overflowed at the corner of his mouth, at the critical moment, he had to rely on brushing his face.

"Yangchun noodles are coming!" The girl shouted loudly and brought a bowl of hot Yangchun noodles to the table, she was afraid that Yunkang would not be full, so she deliberately cooked more noodles, and secretly added a piece of sauced beef to the noodles.

"Thank you." Yunkang took the chopsticks, picked up the hot noodles and ate them very refreshingly. Although it is a simple bowl of Yangchun noodles, the taste is really good, and the noodles made in the big restaurant are not as delicious as this.

Soon the meal arrived, and the stalls everywhere were bustling with people eating.

"Xiao Luo, there are guests who have eaten, go and collect the money." There was an extra middle-aged woman at the stall, busy cooking noodles while instructing the girl to do things.

Immediately after a few more tables of guests, a girl named Xiao Luo stepped forward to order, turned her head and shouted, "Mom, add two more bowls of beef noodles." She shuttles between the steaming stove and the table and stool, scooping vegetables, collecting money, wiping the table, washing dishes, and her movements are very skillful.

The number of customers on the stall gradually increased, and when Yunkang was about to finish eating, he heard someone shouting at the table behind him: "Wow, boss, come and see, there are ants in your noodles, Lao Tzu just ate a mouthful, and he was so disgusting." ”

"I also have this bowl, don't you buy beef noodles at home, I haven't seen a few pieces of beef, but there are a lot of ants." The other shouted exaggeratedly.

The shouters were two young men, one with a shaved head, the other with yellow hair, both with thin arms and thin legs, and with a thief's eyebrows and rat-eyed expressions, they were deliberately looking for fault.

The bald head held the cigarette roll in his hand, and very angrily pushed the soup bowl forward and asked the proprietress to come and take a look.

Xiao Luo's mother quickly wiped her hands with her apron, walked over to take a closer look, and saw that all the noodles and beef in the soup bowl had been eaten, leaving a small half bowl of soup, and there were indeed a few dead ants floating on it.

The bald head pointed at the ants, glared at him and said: "After eating this thing, who knows if it is poisonous or not, you must have diarrhea, what do you say to do the boss, I have to pay for this mental loss." ”

Huang Mao grinned and snorted, "I ate a mouthful of ants just now, and it scared me to pee." In case of sequelae, who is responsible? My boss is right, mental damage must be compensated. ”

Xiao Luo's mother has been in the beef noodle business for several years, and she knows that there are some gangsters in the vicinity, who are usually idle, and like to run around and blackmail small vendors, eating and drinking for nothing.

The guests at the next table looked at it with surprised expressions and wondered if the noodles really had ants. Xiao Xiao's mother has an ugly expression, if things are big, there will be no guests to eat her beef noodles.

"Our beef noodles are very clean, how can there be ants, are you mistaken?" Xiao Luo saw that someone was deliberately making trouble, so he hurriedly walked up and said angrily.

"Are we mistaken? This ant is still floating in the soup, you bring it to everyone to see, this disgusting is not disgusting, who can eat it? The bald head picked up the soup bowl and put it heavily on the table, and some of the noodle soup spilled out, and the dead ants stuck to the table.

A middle-aged man eating noodles next to him stretched out his head and saw ants, and quickly frowned and covered his mouth, half a bowl of noodles was not finished, and he immediately shouted "checkout", threw money on the table and hurried away.

Xiao Luo's face was flushed with anger, these two people were so hateful, they deliberately made some ants into the soup bowl and scared the other guests away.

Every bowl of beef noodles is prepared by herself, and the dishes and chopsticks are also cleaned, how can there be ants. They ate all the noodles and beef, and only a little noodle soup was left, so they shouted that there were ants, which was too fake, and they obviously wanted to eat the overlord meal to blackmail people.

The bald head turned his head and saw that some guests were gone, secretly proud, he and Huang Mao just took advantage of people's inattention, caught a few ants on the ground, and threw them into the noodle soup, just to blackmail the noodle seller.

Haha, you don't have to pay for two bowls of beef noodles, and by the way, you can also make some mental damages.

Last night they drank a little wine and gambled twice, but they didn't expect to be unlucky, and almost lost their pants. He and Huang Mao are penniless now, and they don't dare to go home to ask their father for money, and they are so hungry when they get to dinner, so they come up with a trick to slander people, first eat two bowls of noodles for nothing, and then spend a few hundred yuan by the way.

The bald head stopped studying without graduating from middle school, and after a few years of mixing outside, he knew that it was not difficult to slander people, and he had to pay attention to the tricks, and he was looking for honest middle-aged women to start, and it was best to take a daughter to do business. Such a proprietress is generally more afraid of causing trouble, as long as she scares her hard, the proprietress will most likely compromise for safety reasons.

Anyway, there are all kinds of human and material evidence, and they don't lie much, so the boss lady won't call the police for this little thing.

The bald head squinted at Xiao Luo's mother, and sneered: "Boss, the mental loss fee, at least 200 yuan per person will be compensated for us." If you don't pay for it, we will sit and not leave today, so that everyone can see how your family's black business is doing. ”

Xiao Luo's mother was so angry that her hands were shaking, and it was nothing to let them eat two bowls of beef noodles for nothing, but it would be too much to pay for mental damage.

It was not easy for them to be orphans and widows, and it was a small business, and a bowl of noodles could not make a few dollars, and they lost 400 yuan, and they were busy for three days.

Just as Xiao Luo's mother was at a loss, a handsome young man in sportswear stood up, stretched his waist, walked to the bald head and yellow hair, squinted and asked, "Where are the ants, let me take a look." ”
