Chapter 232: The School Flower's Pocket Sister (231)
Isn't this the description of XJ Grape Ditch in the primary school text?
People in the 80s, who read this text back then and didn't drool!
instantly evoked the memories of a group of post-80s generations, and everyone recited alongside them.
"Hahaha, there are not only grapes in September, but also many fruits to eat! Honeydew melons, watermelons, apples, peaches, pomegranates, etc., young people, you can eat fruit for dinner! ”
Song Yongchang smiled very heartily, and it could be seen that Yijin was still in his second hometown, and his mood was not ordinary.
"Uncle and grandfather, is your corps in the south or the north?" You Yu is also the first time to come to XJ, and he is most curious about the city where his uncle and grandfather's family lived.
"Shihezi is in northern Xinjiang, I'll tell you." Speaking of his second hometown, Song Yongchang can talk about this topic for three days and three nights.
Starting from Jiangxian County, there was no stop on the way, and without taking the high-speed, the three drivers drove in shifts for two days and fifteen hours before arriving at the first city of the Silk Road into XJ, HM City.
The bedroom of the RV is relatively spacious, Grandpa You and Grandma You and others sleep well at night, and they can take a one-hour lunch break at noon during the day.
Looking at the wilted appearance of the nine young men, Boss You, who has three drivers for an RV, feels that he is really wise!
Of course, she is not a black-hearted boss who doesn't care about the life and death of her employees, and hurriedly ordered everyone: "Rest, let's rest in HM City for two days before leaving!" ”
Song Yongchang looked at the appearance of his grandson goddess Cai Yiyi, and said with a smile: "You want to shop, eat, and buy in HM City, right?" ”
"Hehe, we have all arrived at the city of paying tribute to the holy melon, what do you say, let's eat the melon to our heart's content!"
Speaking of honeydew melons, melon farmers from Sichuan Province only learned that there are more than 100 varieties and types of cantaloupe from XJ, as well as early-maturing summer melons and late-maturing winter melons.
The fruits mentioned by my uncle and grandfather before can also be seen everywhere.
Close your eyes and buy as you like!
It's all one by one, cooked and sweet!
Here, fruits are sold by the kilo, and they are incredibly cheap.
A large watermelon of more than ten catties is only sold for a few dollars!
For ten dollars, you can buy a big bag of other fruits!
Not only are the fruits cheap and tasty, but the snacks and staple foods are also good.
What Balikun steamed cakes, steamed pork, grilled buns, cold noodles, Hui noodle soup, Balikun puff pastry, spicy lamb trotters, grilled lamb skewers, grilled naan, hand-grasped mutton and so on.
After resting for two days, everyone ate solidly for two days.
Drivers and bodyguards who are more than 1.75 meters tall and in their early twenties.
That's really meat, a meal for nine people can make you half a sheep!
The prices in HM City are much cheaper than those in Jiang County, so Boss You will say it directly, just tidy!
It's up to these boys!
I drove all the way over, and I didn't encounter trouble before, so these nine strong guys went to the front station, and the momentum of being a soldier was released.
If you don't have long eyes, put your eyeballs on it right away!
What is a few sheep to eat?
If it weren't for the 15-day tour of the Northern Xinjiang Grand Ring Road, everyone would still be reluctant to go.
The mutton here is how to make it, the taste is quite delicious and not greasy!
Reluctantly leaving Hami, drive to TLF.
If you ask them about this tour, what is the best thing to do in TLF in September.
You Yu and others will definitely give you a few suggestions:
First of all, you must climb the Flaming Mountain filmed in Journey to the West.
The scorching sun was in the sky, and the red sandstone of the mountains was scorching and shining, like a burning fire, and before I could get closer, I felt the hot air flow tumbling up.
How hot is it?
Here, from half past three to half past four in the afternoon, you can experience what it means to "bake eggs in the sand and bake flatbread on the Gobi Desert"!
The eggs baked in sand are charred and fragrant, chewy, and delicious!
Then, go to the vast Kumtag Desert and drive an off-road vehicle for a surfing experience, which is exciting and fun.
The timid are not afraid, and they can also play sand skating, similar to the game of slides when they were children, and adults can also enjoy the fun of innocence.
You can also ride a camel and sing on the sand waves, and when you are tired, bury your feet in the sand and feel the sand therapy recommended by the locals.
Finally, TLF is famous for its grapes, golden latitude, length of light, in addition to eating fresh grapes, of course, tasting wine
After a day and a night of stops, head north.
Next stop – WLMQ!
The closer he got to Shihezi, the more excited Song Yongchang became, and he began to introduce WLMQ to everyone on the way:
"In the past, we took a bus from the Corps to the city, and it took less than two hours! I can always come here once in three or two months, and I can find any street and road with my eyes closed.
There is the largest Grand Bazaar in the world, oh, the Grand Bazaar means bazaar in Uyghur language, farmers' market! It is also a gathering place and exhibition center for XJ's tourism products. ”
"Wow, isn't it possible to buy all XJ specialties here?" You Yu is very happy, one-stop shopping or something is most suitable for a lazy person like her.
"Yes, I'll take you around when the time comes, but don't buy on the commercial street, there is a wholesale market not far from there, and whatever you buy will have to be a lot!"
Look, with the guidance of knowledgeable locals, it's just different!
The commercial street is very lively.
Jade, You Yu and others basically don't understand, and they don't have the habit of collecting, skip it!
Handicrafts, it depends on whether they fit the eye.
Except for You Yu who bought a few blankets, the old ladies and young men basically only went shopping and didn't buy them.
When Song Yongchang led everyone to walk for more than 20 minutes, they arrived at a wholesale market, and all the staff began to buy on a large scale.
What?
Pistachios with big fruits in full bloom, sixty yuan a kilogram!
Thin-skinned walnuts that can be pinched open by hand only cost eight yuan per kilogram!
Top NP (paper bark) almonds, thirty dollars a kilogram!
In the supermarket in my hometown, what is the price of these dried fruits?
After Grandpa You asked the price, he used a shovel to scoop up the pistachios!
Just his little granddaughter who can show off two catties of pistachios in one breath, he is generous once today, buy ten catties, and let her knock enough!
There are four main types of raisins by color: green, red, purple and black.
Each color is divided into many varieties, with different taste characteristics, and the price ranges from a dozen pieces to seventy or eighty-one kilograms, although picky.
Dried apricots, dried figs, dried plums, etc., are only twenty or thirty pieces per kilogram.
It's all cheap to this one, and my uncle and grandfather kept helping everyone negotiate the price, and the stall owners warmly invited everyone to try it.
Buy, buy hard!
As long as you're not afraid of being too sweet, here, you can cut cakes freely.
Everyone added a piece and bought a souvenir for the half-RV!
At noon, Song Yongchang took everyone to a restaurant called cantaloupe pilaf for dinner.
Just when everyone was munching on the leg of mutton.
"Yay?! Old Song! (End of chapter)
