A small shop in the woods

The three of them broke in in a daze, which really made this quiet little shop popular. The boss greeted him very politely and directly, and he looked no more than 50 years old from his face, but from his demeanor, he felt that this person had to be at least seventy or eighty years old. The whole small inn also had an eerie feeling, and the three of them looked at each other.

It was still the village chief Cao who was hot, and he didn't care about these and replied directly: "Have some food, boss, what do you have here." The boss replied in a very weak voice, and said weakly: "There is nothing else here, you can't eat vegetables, only a little dried vegetables and frozen vegetables, but the meat is still fresh meat that has just been slaughtered." ”

Jin Meng smiled and asked, "Yo, I didn't see it." I don't really see that you can slaughter animals with your physical strength. Hearing someone ridiculing him, his boss raised his spirit and said: "I'm alone, if I don't kill, I'm still waiting for the guests to help me kill." ”

"Okay! No matter what kind of meat it is, serve us a few plates first. Then the fire was lit, and it was strangely cold. Your boss is also good enough to pick the door, and you don't make a fire on such a cold day. Village Chief Cao urged, Village Chief Cao didn't look down on this innkeeper in his heart, looking at this character is slower than Mu Xun, walking slowly, holding tableware for the three of them slowly, and speaking weakly, it is simply helpless, Village Chief Cao really wants to kick him in the ass a few times.

Village Chief Cao wanted to chat with the boss and continued: "Don't be surprised when you come suddenly, our car broke down on the road and can't get out of the mountain, so I'll come to you for a while." Don't look at me I haven't been here for three or four years, I remember it was very lively. Don't look at the three stores, there are a lot of beautiful women, I still have a few good relationships, why are you one now, brother, it turns out that the female clerk I know is not there? ”

"In just three or four years, it's gone into decline." The boss said regretfully: "How many people still use wood, and there are few people who go up the mountain to cut wood." My business here is over with this firewood business, and I have to come back and run it myself. ”

Village Chief Cao nodded and asked, "By the way, let me ask how often the long-distance buses here run?" ”

The innkeeper carefully observed the three people who entered the store, and continued to maintain a unique speaking style and said: "Look at a few people who don't look like bad people, sit quickly, sit quickly, it's not easy to go out on this cold day." If you ask about this long-distance bus, there is no exact time, if it is 3-5 hours faster, it will come and go once every day or two. The snow is too big on this day, and the road is not easy to walk, so this time is even more inaccurate. ”

"Feelings are not a trip every hour." Mu Xun said a little disappointed. "When did you come to the last shift?" Village Chief Cao asked. The innkeeper thought for a moment and said, "I came here last Saturday." ”

"Huh?" Village Chief Cao was a little surprised and asked, "It's been a week, do you have a phone here?" ”

"No, not even a signal." The innkeeper replied simply. Jin Meng asked: "Village chief, why don't we set off now, hurry up and walk to the nearest village when it gets dark, I see that there is a nearby village on this map." ”

"Nope." Village Chief Cao said helplessly: "My physical strength is not good, and if I continue like this, I will be exhausted to death." Village Chief Cao pointed to Mu Xun on the side and said, "Are you looking to see if he can hold on?" Is he okay if he can do it? ”

Mu Xun just said unconvinced: "I can do it, don't look at me old, I can." I just want to get out of here as soon as possible, I really don't want to eat in this restaurant. How does it feel like a black store here, look at the environment here, is there a business license? Do you have a health certificate? There must be no invoices here. ”

The boss didn't care about the words of these three picky, and lit a fire by the stove himself. Soon the warm air flow filled the small restaurant, and the owner also opened the rest of the curtains. The hotel is also brightened up, and more light is streaming in.

The boss was a little embarrassed, and said a little embarrassed: "A few, there is meat, but there is no cook, you have to do it yourself, if there is snow outside the drinking water, just put the kettle back and boil it." ”

Jin Meng was a little dissatisfied and said: "This can also be called a restaurant, there is nothing, this is too hard, and the snow is not clean." Jin Meng looked out the window and said. Jin Meng turned around and asked, "Boss, there is no bottled mineral water?" ”

"That is, when a bus passes by, one or two boxes will be dropped." The boss replied, "Now there are fewer customers, and the customers who pass by will not bring me water, and I will be out of stock here." The boss remembered with a smile and immediately said, "By the way, I remember a few more bottles of water." The boss immediately went to the counter to look for it, and soon the boss took out five bottles of mineral water with a layer of ash. Placed on the dining table with special care, I saw that the bottle was covered with dust, and the boss was embarrassed to wipe the dust on the bottle with his cuffs.

"You think this is a magic lamp, and you can come to the gods by rubbing it." Jin Meng directly dodged the mineral water in the boss's hand and checked the date on the bottle. "I'll go." Jin Meng shouted: "This water can be collected, and it has expired for more than ten years." ”

Mu Xun is also a good person, and he took a bottle with his hands and looked at it. "Ouch, this bottle is more than ten years old, produced in 1999 AD." Mu Xun said with admiration: "This is not water, it is simply water for thousands of years." ”

Mu Xun smiled and said, "Forget it, don't drink this bottled water, I'll go out to fill the snow and boil water for you." The two of you can prepare, this is a barbecue buffet, which is not bad. Mu Xun took the kettle and went out to fill it with water and boil it.

And Jin Meng wanted to go and see what else was in this small shop, so Village Chief Cao waved and said, "Forget it, let's use this fire to roast some meat." Then depart early tomorrow, and if it goes well, you may arrive in the evening. ”

The boss went into the back kitchen and brought out a large pot of fresh meat, which looked like it was definitely freshly slaughtered. Jin Meng saw that the meat was coming, and he didn't care too much. Pick up a large piece of meat directly with a dagger and throw it directly on the red-hot cast-iron grate. The fat of the large piece of pork belly comes into contact with the red-hot pig iron. The sound of sneering sounded, and the smell of meat came out immediately. The fat from the pork belly is also roasted, and the fat flows directly into the stove from the fine lines on the cast iron grate, and the wood in the fire burns more vigorously when it encounters the grease left on the top.

Soon the smell of meat filled the small restaurant, and at this time, Mu Xun also came in from outside. I took a big puff through my nose, "It smells so good." Mu Xun said admiringly: "Jin Meng is a good craft." ”

Jin Meng was even happier when he heard someone praise himself, Jin Meng held chopsticks in one hand and a dagger in the other, and burned pork belly on the stove. "Boss." Jin Meng asked: "Is there any seasoning, if there is wine, bring it to us." If there is no wine, it always feels like something is missing. Jin Meng excitedly roasted the pork belly, and his mouth was still talking to Village Chief Cao.
