Chapter 108: The Ghost Lingers
After another two days, Jiang Chen continued to shop his breakfast.
Egg tarts, fish balls, and snail lion noodles are three top delicacies that have become well-known delicacies in the entire Jinyang City.
As soon as the opening opened that morning, Jiang Chen was just about to hang the signboard when he saw a dirty old man lying on the stone steps in front of his house.
Jiang Chen leaned over to check and asked, "Uncle, why are you sleeping here, it's cold on the ground, don't freeze your body." ”
The old man replied vaguely and casually, and could not hear what he said, so he turned around and fell asleep again.
Wu Yue came over and saw this scene, and said to Jiang Chen: "I see that this old man is homeless, let's take him into the house first, he will freeze like this." ”
"Well, that's what I thought, too."
Jiang Chen helped the old man up, and together with Wu Yue, sent the sloppy beggar into the house.
There was a charcoal fire in this room, Wu Yue brought another basin of hot water, and simply wiped the old man's face, but he didn't expect the old man to suddenly open his eyes.
His appearance was a little weird, and Wu Yue was accidentally taken aback, but she was not afraid of Jiang Chen here.
"Uncle, we saw that you were starving and freezing outside, so we brought you into the house to warm up, you don't have to be afraid, we have no malice."
The old man's confused eyes gradually cleared, and in the sunken eye sockets, they looked deep and slender.
Jiang Chen's heart was shocked, because he saw some details that made him feel unreasonable, as an old beggar living on the street, the brilliance of these eyes was really too special.
Shouldn't someone like him have lost hope in life and even life, and his eyes are full of confusion and despair?
But this old man looks, except that he is a little sloppy, and does not give people a sense of twilight and desolation, in such doubts, Jiang Chen gradually feels that this old man may not be an ordinary person.
At least the old man's previous identity, the life he lived, and the experiences he encountered were definitely not ordinary.
"I ...... Hungry. ”
The first thing the old man said when he opened his mouth, he shouted directly that he was hungry, and Jiang Chen was almost angry by him.
They are still worried about whether the old man's body and bones are frozen, after all, in this cold winter, he has been lying on the ground all night, even a strong young man is afraid that he will not be able to withstand it.
Wu Yue immediately replied: "I'll give you a bowl of snail powder, drink a sip of hot soup and your body will be warm." ”
"What...... What powder? ”
Jiang Chen said: "It's a kind of pasta, although it smells sour, but it is guaranteed to make you love it." ”
In this way, under the care of the two of them, the old man ate the snail lion powder steadily, and Wu Yue was still a little disgusted when he first brought it over, but after two or three bites, he immediately devoured it.
After that, the two let the old man stay in the house, and they went to the shop and started their business.
Today, the front of this shop is also overcrowded, and even their shop has become a popular attraction, and some people have to come forward to see what is going on even if they can't get in line.
Daily limited on a first-come, first-served basis.
This is the slogan that Jiang Chen wrote for the shop, and the result has played a very positive role, and people can be said to be crazy in order to be able to eat these three delicacies.
There is no other king in the whole than this one!
But in fact, they can say more boldly and with certainty that it is impossible to find these three delicacies elsewhere in the entire Daqian and even in the whole world.
Jiang Chen looked at the fewer and fewer egg tarts in the steamer, and thought that how could they be sold faster today than a few days ago, if they continued at this rate, they would soon sell out all the things they had prepared.
This will allow him to free up time earlier for other things.
At this moment, Jiang Chen suddenly found an incomparably sharp gaze from the crowd of people coming and going in front of him.
This gaze passed through several figures and stared directly at Jiang Chen's face, all in all, the other party is not good!
"Yue'er, you and Miss Duanmu will finish together, I'm going to go out."
Jiang Chen explained, and walked out in a hurry.
Duanmu Qing leaned over and said, "It seems that something is not quite right." ”
"Huh? What's wrong? ”
"It's hard to say, but I think it's better to talk to Yuyang."
Duanmu Qing's keen intuition sensed that behind Jiang Chen's hurried departure figure, maybe something was abnormal, she had an extra heart, and immediately turned around and went into the courtyard and called Han Yuyang out.
"Just now I was in the crowd, I felt a murderous aura, and then Jiang Chen went out in a hurry, I think it seems that I should go over and take a look, and if he encounters danger, I can help him."
Han Yuyang nodded, and immediately went out of the backyard over the wall.
It just so happened that this scene was seen by the old man who walked out of the house, he was stunned for a moment and didn't say anything, but was a little embarrassed to ask Duanmuqing for a few more egg tarts.
"This is really a good thing, my old man has only tasted such a delicious delicacy for the first time in his life."
Although Duanmuqing was not used to having strangers in this courtyard, she was very happy to lend a helping hand when she saw that she was just a homeless old beggar.
Jiang Chen's footsteps were getting faster and faster, he shuttled through the bustling crowd, and there were several sneaky figures behind him who followed all the way from the front of the shop to here, looking like he was not going to give up.
If he was not mistaken, the person who made him suddenly alert should be the haunting Zhao Sili.
He actually tracked all the way from Longjiang to Wangdu, he was really a difficult dog, Jiang Chen knew that there was a little-traveled and relatively secluded place in the north of the city, so he deliberately rushed in that direction.
The reason why he wanted to lure the pursuers away was, of course, because he didn't want to make a big deal in front of the shop, let alone harm Wu Yue.
The reason why he opened this shop in Jinyang City is that on the one hand, it can be a good cover for their identity, and on the other hand, he can also gain a firm foothold in a place like Wangdu, where every inch of land is valuable, and with a lot of silver income, he doesn't have to worry about anything.
If it was because Zhao Sili, a dog thief, came to the door and affected the business of the shop, then Jiang Chen would definitely be so angry that he would dismantle this bastard.
Turning the corner and coming to the wasteland of abandoned houses in front of him, Jiang Chen finally stopped slowly.
More than a dozen footsteps came one after another, and the first person was Zhao Sili, who had been chasing Jiang Chen since Shanguan Town.
"I said Lord Zhao, you are really ghostly, I told you that I am an innocent little people, you always have to get along with me, what is the reason?"
Zhao Sili sneered: "Don't pretend, you can't escape this time." ”
