Chapter 55: Chinese Restaurant
Dortmund is a "green city", with nearly half of the city covered with waterways, woodland, arable land, green areas and spacious parks.
Borussia Dortmund FC won the Bundesliga in the previous two seasons and reached the quarter-finals of the Champions League this season. And the club's home stadium, the West** Stadium, is known as the "Devil's Stadium", with a maximum capacity of 80,000 people, and is a nightmare for all teams in Europe's top five leagues.
On the train, Dedic talked to Shen Peng endlessly, and Shen Peng's heart had already flown to the club of Dortmund, when would he be able to set foot in the five major leagues and join such a strong team?
"Shen Peng, the place we went to this time seems to be called 'Pocket Sichuan Restaurant'." De Diqi struggled to speak a few Chinese pronunciations, which he had asked the boss to remember last time, otherwise he wouldn't have known what the five Chinese characters were called in the restaurant.
"By the way, I remember that their boss's daughter seems to be studying at the Technical University of Dortmund, and she saw it at the last dinner, and she seems to be quite beautiful!" Goryzka also said, and then glanced at Shen Peng meaningfully.
"When you say that, I remember it too!" Dedic hurriedly took over the conversation and bumped Shen Peng with his elbow, "It is said that she is still single!" β
Shen Peng had a black line on his head, "Are you really here to eat?" β
"Of course, what are you doing here without eating?" Dedic asked with a serious face.
"Shen Peng, what are you thinking?" Grezka also asked meaningfully.
"Okay......" Shen Peng has served these guys, but he hasn't eaten Chinese food for a long time, I don't know what it's like?
After getting off the bus, a group of seven people went straight to the pocket Sichuan restaurant.
Coming to the outside of the restaurant, Shen Peng looked at the signboard, this was the first time he had seen Chinese characters in such a long time abroad, which made him feel an inexplicable sense of intimacy.
This pocket Sichuan restaurant is not big, it is similar to the medium-sized restaurants that Shen Peng used to go to in China, there are more than a dozen tables in it, and now it is dinner time, and there are many locals eating here, sitting at four or five tables. It can be seen that this boss still has a set of operations.
"How many gentlemen do you have?" A waiter walked over.
"It's just the seven of us, find us a bigger table." Dedic said.
"Okay, come with me, a few of them." The waiter looked at Shen Peng twice, and then led a few people to a private room inside.
Once everyone was seated, the waiter pulled out a menu and handed it to them.
Dedic took the menu, didn't even look at it, and threw it directly to Shen Peng, "Come, you know more, you order." β
Shen Peng was not pretentious, opened the menu, and casually ordered some dishes that he had often seen before, such as mapo tofu, kung pao chicken, back to the pot meat and the like.
When the waiter went down with the menu, Dedicci said with a puzzled expression: "Why didn't you see Delia today?" β
"She may still be at school and hasn't come back......"
Shen Peng guessed that Delia might be the so-called "boss's daughter".
Thinking of this, he suddenly remembered Zhu Xian.
Seem...... Seems to have been getting less contact lately?
It seems to have changed since the Chinese New Year, right?
I used to be in contact almost every day, but now it's only once every two or three days.
While Shen Peng was pondering, his teammates found a topic to talk about.
'There's a good chance that Borussia Dortmund will reach the semi-finals this year, and their next game will be MΓ‘laga, a name I've never heard much.
"Don't talk nonsense, the Champions League can reach the quarter-finals of the knockout round, there are no weak teams, and if Dortmund is not careful, it is likely to be killed."
"That's right, if only this year's Champions League final could be played between Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund......
As Germans, they naturally have this hope.
"That's not easy to say, their opponents in the semi-finals are the winner of Real Madrid and Galatasaray, so Real Madrid should not have a big problem winning, right? In other words, if they want to reach the final, they have to pass Real Madrid first. β
"Bayern Munich is not in a good situation either, they have to beat Juventus first, then Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain to get to the final. Barcelona is a big step ahead of other teams in the league this season, and can focus all their energy on the Champions League, which is a strong opponent. β
"Hey, whatever...... What do we care about in Germany B? β
"That's right!"
The restaurant served the food quickly, and while everyone was still chatting, it was already serving food one after another.
This restaurant is not very big, so the order of serving is not very particular, and the waiter will serve whatever the kitchen has done.
The first dish is Kung Pao Chicken.
However, after the food was served, the group of rough men did not move, but looked at Shen Peng in unison, just like obedient students looking at the teacher.
"What's wrong?" Shen Peng was stunned, could it be that there was something on his face?
"Eat it quickly, if you don't eat it, the food will not taste good." Shen Peng said, is it etiquette? Usually these guys are not such exquisite people!
"It's okay, it's okay, you eat first!" Shafta said, and the others nodded.
Shen Peng didn't understand what these guys were doing, so he didn't bother to be polite, so he picked up the chopsticks and put a piece of chicken in his mouth.
"Wow! Really! β
"I used to just hear that they were powerful with chopsticks, but now when I see it, it's true!"
"You see his chopsticks are as flexible as his fingers!"
Because of this restaurant, everyone's tableware has spoons, knives, forks and chopsticks, so De Diqi also picked up a pair of chopsticks, followed Shen Peng's example, and prepared to clip a piece of meat, but as soon as he picked it up, because the strength of his hand was not used well, the meat fell on the table.
Only then did Shen Peng finally understand the purpose of these guys, it turned out that they were just to see themselves using chopsticks, which made him cry and laugh.
When Grezka saw Deditch's embarrassment, he naturally wouldn't let go of this opportunity to ridicule:
"Hahaha, come on, just like your bear, let's be honest and use a spoon!"
De Diqi did not show weakness at all: "People must have pursuits, I don't know how to use chopsticks to learn, if they are like you, no, I guess you will be in Germany and B in your life." β
"It's like you can go to the Bundesliga, and you don't look at how old you are! If you want me to say, there is a possibility that Shen Peng is among us. Goryzka continued.
Other people also coaxed at this time, and the atmosphere became lively.
And Shen Peng just looked at them with a smile.
"By the way, Shen Peng, why don't you teach me how to use chopsticks? Just like you! Dediqi said to Shen Peng, and the index and middle fingers in his hands also made the appearance of feeding things into his mouth with chopsticks.
"There's really no special way to do this......
When everyone heard this, they all looked at Shen Peng curiously, and even those who shouted before that they were not interested in chopsticks also looked at it.
"Just practice." Shen Peng smiled.
Everyone: "......"
