Chapter 9 68 A bowl of lo mein
In a stylish office.
"Elder Zhang, it's not too early, let's hurry up and eat something."
"You're old, how can you be as hard as this group of young people."
A young man in a suit who looked like an assistant said to a kind old man.
This is a design institute.
Mr. Zhang has long been a veteran figure in the design institute.
He is almost seventy years old this year, and it stands to reason that he should enjoy a leisurely retirement.
But Mr. Zhang likes to do design and refuses to retire.
And, once he's in the middle of his work, he's going to forget to eat and sleep.
No, I didn't eat lunch today.
It's not just that he didn't eat, but the design team he led counts as one, and now they are all hungry with their chests and backs.
They really couldn't stand it, so they frequently gave Zhang Lao's assistant a look.
This assistant ...... I'm hungry and faint.
Knowing that going on like this is not the way to go, it will affect morale.
The assistant couldn't help but interrupt Zhang Lao and reminded him to go eat something, take a slow break, and then continue to work.
Zhang Lao raised his head and looked at the time.
Hey, it's already past three o'clock in the afternoon.
It's time to eat something and take a break.
"Let's eat, I'm in for a treat." Zhang Lao said.
There was a burst of cheers in the office.
More than a dozen office workers hugged Mr. Zhang out of the office door and arrived at Wisteria Street.
On Wisteria Street, most of the shops are closed at the moment.
Dingo was also napping his head in his convenience store.
There were no guests coming to the door, and it was a sleepy time......
Unlike other bosses such as Brother Ding, Cheyenne is still in good spirits.
He didn't have to get up early, and he slept well at noon.
I don't know how energetic I am at the moment.
"It's closed."
"The owners of this house are asleep......"
"There's nothing to eat."
"What's going on?"
"Why don't you buy some instant noodle snacks at the convenience store and put on a mat first?"
Along the way, everyone became more and more disappointed.
There's no food to eat.
Uncomfortable!
While they were thinking about whether to go to the convenience store and buy some snacks to eat, they came across 13 Wisteria Street.
The sign at the door is so conspicuous on Wisteria Street, where the group is closed for repair.
"Newly made lo mein, opening a big reward?"
"Why don't you eat a dozen lo mein?"
"It's better than eating instant noodles."
"Elder Zhang, why don't we eat this."
"It seems that this is the only one that still has food to sell."
“……”
Seeing that Zhang Lao nodded, Zhang Lao's assistant took the lead in pushing open the door of the store at No. 13 Wisteria Street.
"Hello, do you still sell lo mein?"
He asked.
Cheyenne was holding her mobile phone and reading a web novel, watching it with relish.
Seeing that a guest came to the door, he had to put down his mobile phone first and replied, "Yes, it's enough." ”
Hearing this, the assistant frowned slightly......
Enough?
Does that mean there are a lot of noodles?
So by noon, didn't you sell much?
Does this mean that the noodles in this shop are not very tasty......
Forget it, originally this point out to eat, there is not much choice.
It's not bad to be able to meet a "enough" company.
The main thing is that I'm so hungry.
This will, you just let them eat wowotou, and they can eat the feeling of delicacies from the mountains and seas!
Thinking in his heart, the assistant said, "Then hurry up, one person will have a bowl first, and they are all hungry." ”
Cheyenne looked at them and didn't get up.
"Together?" He asked.
"Yes, together." The assistant nodded.
"One, two, three, four, five......" Cheyenne stretched out her hand and nodded one by one.
"Fourteen people, a bowl of noodles is 68, a total of 952 yuan, please pay the bill first." Cheyenne pointed out the head and said.
"How much!?" The assistant thought he had misheard.
A bowl of noodles 68?
You're going to heaven!!
Loot while it's hot, right?
Even if it's lo mein in a five-star hotel, it can't sell 68 a bowl!
If someone happens to have a birthday, they will give it away for nothing......
A bowl of lo noodles for free, charged 68, this person is crazy and poor?
"68 a bowl?"
"Young man, you're on a plane."
"I used to eat the lo noodles in this shop, and Tong Su was not bullied, and it was only seven cents a bowl."
When Zhang Lao heard this, he also felt strange, and he joked.
"Seven cents a bowl? That had to be when I was a kid, right? Cheyenne said with a look of reminiscence.
"Later, it only went up to three yuan a bowl, and it was delicious! Who are you and that boss...... "Zhang Lao asked.
"Father and son." Cheyenne replied.
"It's not like it at all." Zhang Lao said with a smile.
What he said is not like it, not in appearance, but in heart.
The former boss Lao Xia was diligent and simple, and he was a real person.
And Cheyenne......
It's noticeably different.
"It turned out to be an old acquaintance, so I'll send you an old one to shoot cucumbers." Cheyenne said.
"Huh?" Among the office workers, someone reacted, he pointed to the sign outside the door and asked, "It's not a big opening reward, so it's not a discount or something?" ”
"Yes, the opening is a big reward, and all guests who come to eat noodles will get a cucumber for free." Cheyenne nodded.
Mr. Zhang: ......
Okay, then try this 68 bowl of cucumbers, ahh
As a veteran of the design institute, Mr. Zhang is not bad at all.
took out ten red suns, slapped them on the counter, and said in a grand manner: "Above!" ”
Xia An counted out 48 pieces, found them for Zhang Lao, and then went to the kitchen to cook noodles.
The noodles are already ready.
The marinade is also very well prepared.
Add heat, boil the noodles, and serve them directly.
"The noodles are ready, let's serve them."
Soon, Cheyenne shouted at the store.
All:......
Why are you 68 a bowl of noodles, and you still want us to serve it ourselves?
Why is this face so big!!
Don't think that if you are handsome, you can do whatever you want!!
I was not very satisfied with the price of 68 bowls, and I had to serve it myself, which made the hearts of many office workers full of resentment.
If it weren't for the hunger being too fierce, they would have to fight with Cheyenne!
The assistant was the first to get up and go to help Mr. Zhang bring noodles.
When he held it in his hand, the assistant was already surprised.
This side is so neatly made and so fragrant!
Above, pleasing to the eye.
There are also two fresh scents that go straight to the nose.
Why do you say it's two shares?
The fragrance of noodles is different from the fragrance of marinade.
In general, you can only smell the aroma of the mixture of braised noodles and noodles.
But the lo noodles made by Xia An also have the fragrance of noodles that have not been covered by the marinade.
From the kitchen to the table where Mr. Zhang was sitting, there was not a few steps in total, but the assistant's saliva was about to flow out.
He could only put it down to being too hungry.
A bowl of noodles and a side of marinade were served in front of Zhang Lao.
"Huh? This bowl of noodles doesn't seem to be the same. ”
Zhang Lao was shocked.
Not to mention the taste, just this appearance is extremely in line with his aesthetics!
In the noodle bowl, each noodle is the same thickness, and the roots are crisp and neat.
In the braised bowl, mushrooms, eggs, and fresh bamboo shoots are evenly distributed, floating and sinking.
Just one glance made Zhang Lao's appetite wider!
