After checking into the hotel, the two left their luggage and came to the commercial street of Minato District.

"It seems that this street, like this city, is very new and very orderly." Anthony whispered as he walked.

On the street, you can see a lot of pedestrians wearing masks.

Especially after seeing a white person like Anthony, they will subconsciously avoid it, after all, outsiders are not only guests now, and it may cause some trouble.

Christine walked to the door of a restaurant with a sign nailed to the door: 36 Anemone Street.

I scanned the inside of the restaurant without a trace, and found that there was nothing I wanted to know.

"Want to eat?" Anthony asked cooperatively.

Christine nodded: "That's it!" ”

The restaurant is very ordinary, the decoration style does not seem to have been used as a restaurant before, and there are some signs of demolition on the walls.

The owner and chef was busy in the kitchen that could be seen.

A young girl came up with a menu: "Two, here's the menu." ”

Anthony took it and looked through it casually, fortunately the menu was in English and Chinese, otherwise the two could only rely on guessing.

Suddenly, Christine, who was on the side, looked behind the names of some of the dishes on the menu.

[Egg fried rice 15 pesos (artificial egg)]

[Scrambled eggs with tomatoes 10 pesos (artificial egg)]

[Flavor hamburger meat pancake 18 pesos (synthetic meat)]

Similar dishes make up two-thirds of the menu, while dishes labeled with natural eggs and natural meat nearly double in price.

Christine asked curiously, "Is there any difference between natural eggs and artificial eggs?" ”

The little girl was a little confused: "I don't know, the taste is the same, artificial eggs are cheap." ”

Anthony and Christine glanced at each other, and they ordered egg fried rice, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and hamburger pancakes.

Among them, the hamburger pancakes are only made of synthetic meat, while the egg fried rice and scrambled eggs with tomatoes are ordered with artificial eggs and natural eggs respectively.

In addition, Christine also proposed to take a look next to the kitchen, but the boss did not object to this, after all, artificial eggs and synthetic meat are officially required by all companies that use them, and they must be clearly marked on the label and menu.

Anyway, natural products and man-made products, how to choose is the freedom of the guest.

But Anthony and Christine found that the vast majority of local customers who came to order food chose mainly artificial products.

Standing next to the glass window, Christine saw the boss pour out a large spoonful of yellow and white viscous liquid from a large plastic bottle, and put it into a large iron pot.

She opened Google Translate and scanned the label on the large plastic bottle, which read: Haitian artificial egg liquid, net weight 5 liters, specified retail price of 300 pesos, ingredient list......

After reading the ingredient list, Christine searched for the ingredients of the eggs again and found that the two were almost the same.

Just when she was suspicious, the boss had already sprinkled a handful of chopped green onions on top of the egg fried rice, and a plate of full egg fried rice was freshly baked.

But when she scrambled natural eggs, she found a problem, and the boss knocked an egg, and the big spoon was less than half filled.

Back to the table.

After a while, the two of them had their meals.

Christine's natural egg egg fried rice has a few sparse pieces of eggs on it, while Anthony's artificial egg fried rice is at least twice as much.

"There's a big difference in price and portion size......," Christine said, picking up a spoon and eating a bite of egg fried rice with natural eggs and egg fried rice with artificial eggs.

Anthony also tried the same separately: "Huh? This artificial one doesn't smell like eggs. ”

Christine tasted it carefully and did find that the only difference between the two was that the artificial eggs did not have an eggy smell, while there was no obvious difference in other textures and tastes.

Now she understands that the taste is more perfect, the nutrients are about the same, and the price is so cheap, no wonder the owner of the restaurant industry will choose artificial eggs.

In the case of considering the wallet, customers will most likely choose artificial eggs.

'Haitian Artificial Eggs...... Haitian Agricultural ...... Isn't that the Fernando family-owned business? Christine thought to herself.

After lunch, the two of them walked down the street with a heavy heart.

Since stalls are not allowed on this shopping street, the two did not encounter all kinds of small vendors like those on the streets of Manila.

Stopping an electric tricycle on the side of the road, the two of them set out to explore the city.

The tricycle driver was a lean young man, smiling along the way and explaining the situation along the way.

After passing four or five streets in a row, Anthony asked casually, "Why don't you see such a small roadside merchant here?" ”

"What? Oooh...... You mean the roadside stalls, right? Only then did the young man react: "There are special pedestrian streets and small markets where stalls can be set up, and stalls are not allowed in areas without permits." ”

Anthony went on to ask: "I see, doesn't there be such a law in Manila?" ”

The young man shook his head: "I don't know, I haven't left Lucena, does America have such a law?" ”

"Yes, Amerika has it too."

During the small talk, the tricycle passed by a bar, and Christine asked curiously, "The name of this bar is exactly the same as a small town in California." ”

The young man glanced at the bar: "Oh...... This bar? It seems to be opened by an Australian, but the unlucky guy disappeared some time ago, and now the bar has been closed for more than three months. ”

"Oh! It's scary, does this happen so often here? Christine asked, covering her mouth and a little scared.

"Haha, don't worry, the security is very good now, that guy disappeared at sea, I heard that more than a dozen people on the entire yacht disappeared together."

Anthony raised his eyebrows: "Haven't you found anyone yet?" ”

"No, I heard that they disappeared near Swallow Island, and they haven't even found their yacht."

'Swallow Island......' Anthony quietly jotted down the name and then digressed the subject: "Are there any fun beaches nearby?" Preferably in a relatively safe area. ”

The young man's smile suddenly became brighter: "You are asking the right person, the golden sand beach in the eastern suburbs of Lucena is a scenic spot dedicated to receiving tourists, and the price of consumption in it is not high, and there are special security guards." ”

"Is there any fun over there?" Christine asked, as if very interested.

"Diving, aquarium, water park, seafood restaurant, fishing, surfing...... By the way, there is also simulated survival, this project will teach a lot of survival skills, and you can also experience the ancient method of boiling salt. The young man introduced it like a few treasures.

Christine hugged Anthony's arm: "Honey, how about going to this golden sand beach scenic spot?" ”

“OK！ OK！ Anthony turned his head and said, "Please send us to the Golden Beach Scenic Area, it shouldn't be far away, right?" ”

"It's not far, just over 4 kilometers, and it takes about 20 minutes."

"OK, let's go to the Golden Beach Scenic Area."

The tricycle turned around and drove towards the Golden Beach Scenic Area in the eastern suburbs.

At this time, Christine was looking at the tourist map in her hand, and then carefully looked at Google Maps, she found that about 3 kilometers across the sea in the Golden Beach Scenic Area, is Swallow Island.

This made her subconsciously glance at the young man who was driving, and then put away her scrutinizing gaze and looked at the customs on both sides.
