Chapter 454 The same in a foreign land as a stranger

"The security aspect here feels good, how dare they be so rampant?" Li Anrui was also attracted by this boss's words, and she put down the things she was picking up, "Doesn't anyone care?" ”

"Yes, yes, but these Bagan boys are also very good, people don't dare to do big things, but small actions are constant," the boss looked a little disdainful when he mentioned the Bagan people, he sighed and said, "Captain Gu doesn't care, but I feel that he just can't be ruthless to clear these people, this is the land of our Huaguo, why let them stay here happily." ”

"Is that the inaction of the department in charge of law and order?" Liu Jiajun said.

"Who knows what their security brigade thinks, maybe they plan to keep these people to open a store and collect taxes." The boss said something against his heart that he didn't believe, and twisted his head to the side with a little weakness.

Liu Jiajun thought about it carefully and felt that there were some problems in his words, but he didn't expose them at the moment.

"Do the people of the 'Seven Stars Gang' have many stores in Yingdong?" Liu Jiajun continued to ask, and Li Anrui also listened attentively on the side.

"There weren't many before, but there were more and more in the back, and they took down the stores that others couldn't open," the boss said and suddenly reacted, chatting with customers here, and no one continued to choose goods.

He turned into the counter, turned out a few small things according to the type of shell craft, and recommended to Li Anrui, "This is quite in line with your temperament, it must look good when you wear it." ”

Li Anrui shook his head, "I still have earrings, so I don't need this." ”

"Brother Jiajun, let's go to another store," she already felt that Liu Jiajun was looking for the boss just now to inquire about the news, and the boss didn't seem to have anything to say, so she called Liu Jiajun to go to other places to have a look.

Li Anrui's proposal hit Liu Jiajun's heart, and the two left the store under the slightly regretful gaze of the boss. The business district of Yingdong is basically concentrated on both sides of a long street, and Liu Jiajun took Li Anrui to walk around this street, and the time was close to noon before he knew it.

"Anrui, are you hungry?" Liu Jiajun asked.

"Brother Jiajun, do you have some work to do here?" Li Anrui nodded, and looked at Liu Jiajun, "If it's inconvenient to say, it doesn't matter, come over today and we'll give priority to completing your work." ”

Liu Jiajun's heart warmed, and he took Li Anrui's hand and said, "Master Wu did arrange things for me, but I'm not in a hurry on this day, you don't have a few days to rest before you go to work, so I'll accompany you to relax first." ”

"Let's go eat there," Li Anrui pointed to a nearby "oyster fried" restaurant, "to see if it is an authentic hometown taste." ”

"I also really want to try your Fujian specialties," Liu Jiajun smiled, he is not very picky about food, and the latter two people want to live together, it is necessary to unify the taste of food.

When he was in Bianzhou before, most of the food he ate was Zhejiang cuisine, and Zhejiang cuisine is different from Fujian cuisine and other cuisines, it is light, greasy and light seasoning, pay attention to the fresh and tender taste, pure taste, color and fragrance.

"It tastes special," Mr. Li led him toward the store, not forgetting to whet his appetite.

"I'm already mentally prepared," Liu Jiajun has been to many places, and has eaten a lot of flavors that most people have never tasted, and he has some impressions of oyster frying.

"Is this an oyster?" asked Mr. Lau.

"Yes, oysters are the dialect of our hometown, which means oysters." Li Anrui didn't expect Liu Jiajun to know this kind of food, "Oyster fried used to be a food that people invented to replace food when they were very poor, it is fried like a cake by wrapping oysters, eggs, green onions, coriander, etc. with sweet potato batter after adding water." You should have eaten sweet potato flour, I remember using this scalded cake for you to eat when I was in Jilong Mountain. ”

Liu Jiajun nodded, nostalgic for the taste, and his heart was also a little moved, and some memories came to mind with Li Anrui's introduction to the food.

"Oyster fried, in our there is also a legend, that is, when the European colonizers occupied Tainan, the national hero Zheng Chenggong sent troops from Luermen to recover the lost land, the army was like a bamboo, but the invaders hid all the food, Zheng Chenggong's army was in a hurry when there was a shortage of food, and simply took local materials to fry oysters and sweet potato flour and one and water into cakes to eat, and later became a popular snack in the province." Li Anrui was talking to Liu Jiajun about the origin of this delicacy, and as soon as he stepped into the door, he saw a lot of people sitting inside.

"It's full, you can eat somewhere else." At the table closest to the door sat a squint-eyed man, his face was relatively large, but his eyes were small, and his eyes were dull and gloomy.

The man's accent was a little stiff, Li Anrui was stunned for a moment, and saw that there was a person sitting next to each of the six tables in the store, and there was no food on the table, and everyone seemed to be sitting there.

The owner of this "oyster fried" shop is Hou Ruilin, when these people came to his store yesterday to do this, he went to Gu Annan to find Xi Yongliang to relieve the siege, originally thought that these people would be a little more restrained, he did not agree to the other party's request to increase the protection fee, who knew that today people came to the store again.

"Everyone, business has finally come to the store, you can do it, come out with an empty table," Hou Ruilin was a little annoyed by these people who came to the door three or four times, and several tables were occupied by each of them, and now the customers in the store can't do business.

As the saying goes, cutting off people's wealth is like killing their parents, if you were a hard-tempered person, you would have turned your face and got into trouble with them a long time ago, but Hou Ruilin himself is a bun character, and he can only beg the other party in a low tone at this time.

"Brother Jiajun, why don't we eat in another place," Li Anrui saw that the atmosphere in the store seemed to be a little wrong, and those people ignored the boss's request, and just sat there silently and did not move.

Liu Jiajun took her hand and said, "It's okay." He had some impressions of the people in the store who were obviously here to make trouble, and when he went to the first store on the side of the road in the morning to buy something, he passed by them.

"Let's sit here," Mr. Lau pulled Mr. Lee to a table in the store and sat down, and the two sat across from one of the men. His actions immediately attracted the attention of those people, and everyone stared at them fiercely, and the atmosphere in the store seemed to stiffen for a moment.

Liu Jiajun sneered, raised his head and looked at the man in front of him, the eyes of the two were together, and the person opposite suddenly "chuckled" in his heart.

The man felt a chill in his heart, but he refused to show any timidity on his face by relying on the fact that he still had five helpers in the store.

"Boss, two portions of fried oysters, what else do you have to eat?" Liu Jiajun shouted at Hou Ruilin.

"Also...... There are also fish balls, fried cakes, and noodles. Hou Ruilin's heart was pounding, and he was very worried in his heart, he was very afraid that Liu Jiajun and these people would fight in his shop, but it was inconvenient for him to drive people away as soon as the business came to the door.

"Let's have a portion of fish balls and fried cakes too," Liu Jiajun said calmly, then pulled a chopstick from the chopstick holder and knocked it twice on the table seemingly casually.

At the same time that the man's eyes on the opposite side were just attracted to the chopsticks, Liu Jiajun's hand holding the chopsticks suddenly exerted force, his movements were very fast, and the wooden chopsticks were inserted into the table at the moment before the man on the other side could react.

When you release your hand, the wooden chopsticks stand on the table. The man on the other side stared at this scene with wide eyes, and his mouth turned into an "O" shape.

He immediately reacted, this was Liu Jiajun warning himself about these people.

The rest of the shop looked at each other, and for the first time in their lives, they had seen someone put a wooden chopstick bucket directly into the table with their hands. After knowing that this person was not easy to mess with, they exchanged glances with each other, and then fled one after another.

When Hou Ruilin brought the oyster fried, he suddenly found that the people who came to the store to make trouble were gone, and only Liu Jiajun and Li Anrui sat face to face at the previous table.

"Huh?" He was slightly surprised, and then noticed that a chopstick had been inserted into the table.

"These people are here to make trouble with you, right?" Liu Jiajun pulled out the chopsticks and put them on the table, and he asked Hou Ruilin, "Doesn't anyone care?" ”

"Captain Gu's people came yesterday, but it's a pity that as soon as they came, these guys left, alas, ......," Hou Ruilin didn't expect Liu Jiajun to suddenly ask about this, he said a little depressed, "The army refuses to come forward, and our business is really annoying." ”

Liu Jiajun nodded, and didn't continue to answer Hou Ruilin's words, he had already heard a lot of information related to the "Seven Star Gang" when he was shopping before, and now he came to Hou Ruilin's store just to fill his stomach with Li Anrui.

"Do you like the taste, Brother Jiajun?" Li Anrui picked up a fish ball and put it on Liu Jiajun's plate, "I just tasted it, and it is a little different from the one in my hometown." ”

"Are you from Fujian?" Hou Ruilin was about to go back to the back of the store, when he suddenly heard Li Anrui's words, he asked with surprise.

"Well, are you too?" Li Anrui nodded.

"Fellow, fellow!" Hou Ruilin rubbed his hands, and his face could not hide his excitement. Chinese people value the most local friendship, after the disaster is rare to meet fellow villagers in a different place, he is also inexplicably happy in his heart, just now those people came to the store to make trouble The haze was swept away, so he sent a stool to get some wine to sit on the side and drink together.

"You eat slowly, I'll invite you to this meal today." Hou Ruilin is still very generous to his fellow villagers, and now he can see that the previous gang of troublemakers were driven away by these two customers in the store.

"Do you two live in Yingdong or?"
