Chapter 101: Boss Zhang's Concerns

Li Jing smiled bitterly and complained to the boss who was still standing next to him: "Boss, are you sure you are the master of Lu cuisine?" Not a master chef of Sichuan or Hunan cuisine? ”

"Hah...... Ha ha...... Chili pepper is a bit doha? "The owner was a bit of a little weak-hearted.

The main reason is that the guests can't stand the fishy smell of pig offal, people here don't eat animal offal, and there is no good way to get rid of the fishy here, so they have to put more chili peppers to cover up the smell of pig offal......

"Gotcha! Other dishes are less spicy, if you can't put it, you don't put it, if you want to say that this is Sichuan food, I will admit it...... Forget it, take the flatbread and eat it! ”

The dishes are all served, and it is not good to return them, plus it is indeed very appetizing, and it is not easy for the restaurant owner to be in a foreign country, so Li Jing will not say anything more, and he can only hope that this old man can show mercy in the back.

The one-inch thick flatbread is really very characteristic of Lu Province, Li Jing and the monkey who ate a meal were completely selfless, and finally hummed straight after eating, and couldn't get up from sitting on the seat, so they had to loosen their belts and sit and eat.

The diners on the table next to him couldn't hold back, and eagerly let the boss serve a plate of fried pork heart at the beginning, and said that it would be exactly the same. Hara less! ”

Before I knew it, it was already the official meal, and the small restaurant was already full of people, many people sniffed, and strongly asked the boss to make the kind of food with a strong fragrance, so that the restaurant owner was happy to see his teeth and eyes, and promised again and again, and his busy feet did not touch the ground.

Seeing that there were still people standing without seats, Li Jing and the monkey stood up strongly, picked up their hats, walked to the curtain of the back kitchen, and shouted inside: "Boss, settle the bill!" ”

"Here we go! Come on! After a while, the boss came out with a plate of fried waist flowers, looking at the spicy kind, Li Jing and the monkey hurriedly got out of the way and smoked their eyes!

After the boss finished delivering the food, he came to Li Jing and the monkey, nodded and said, "I'm sorry, I'm a little too busy today, please bear with me if you can't pay attention to it, Chenghui 375 Para." ”

Li Jing and the monkey were dumbfounded, what is Para?

The monkey took out a silver dinar and asked the boss stupidly, "This way...... Isn't it the dinar? What is Parra? ”

"Ugh!" The owner of the restaurant looked at the dinar in the monkey's hand and said, "One dinar is equivalent to 100 para, and this is the largest denomination of 30 dinars......

"Oh! It does have 30 printed on it, is it so cheap here? Less than 4 dinars for such a large table of dishes? The monkey looked at the silver dinar in his hand, which seemed to be quite valuable, and asked curiously.

It is normal for outsiders to not understand the local prices, so the restaurant owner had to popularize the local prices for Li Jing and the monkeys.

"Well, it's not cheap, is it? Normally, it takes about 1 dinar for a person to come to eat here, and in addition, the ingredients you eat this time are not valuable things, I get these things and are actually prepared to eat by myself, the ingredients are basically pig offal that the butcher shop half sells and half gives away, and the bean sprouts are born by yourself. But you eat a lot, so the price is a little bit higher......"

"You know, if you just buy simple foods such as bread and potatoes, 1 dinar is enough for a poor family to eat for a day, and this silver coin in your hand is a month's salary for an ordinary worker. But other things like salt, spices and the like are not cheap, and oil is more expensive, but fortunately I use lard......"

Li Jing probably calculated, the price is really not high, of course, it can't be compared with later generations, in later generations, the money for a month's meal is sparse and ordinary.

Li Jing snatched the silver coin from the monkey's hand, stuffed it into the hand of the restaurant owner and said: "I have eaten here with you for the past two days, this is the rice money, you can look at it and get some good when the time comes!" ”

The restaurant owner felt hot with the silver coin: "This is too much, I can't finish it, I can't finish it at all......"

Li Jing suspected that the restaurant owner had also crossed over, but unfortunately there was no evidence.

"If you can't finish eating, save it for next time! In the evening, the two of us came to eat nine turns of large intestine. It's okay for the two of us to eat here, right? ”

"Okay, then I'll put it away first, you two can rest casually, I'll go find two stools for the two of you!"

"Don't yours, my name is Boss Li, his name is Monkey, and the boss's surname is yours?"

"Huh? Don't have your surname Zhang, Gong Chang Zhang, contemptible Zhang Youcai, you still have a Chinese name? ”

The monkey was unhappy: "How rare, the two of us have spoken Chinese for so long, and we still think that we are crooked nuts?" Go ahead and get busy with you, we'll find the stool ourselves! ”

"Alas! Okay, then I'll get busy first! After saying that, the restaurant owner hurried into the back kitchen.

Li Jing and the monkey searched for a long time, and finally found two small stools in the counter, sat down and tried them, curled up in the stomach and felt uncomfortable, so they had to stand up again and lean on the counter to chat.

Seeing that the restaurant owner was busy alone, he was as busy as a butterfly wearing flowers, but unfortunately that old face could only be regarded as a fluttering moth at most, and the monkey really couldn't stand it, so he said to Boss Zhang who was passing by: "I said Boss Zhang, you don't have to fight so hard, right?" I'm looking for two waiters! What has become of this......"

Boss Zhang had just cleaned up a table and sent the used tableware to the back kitchen with a wooden basin, when he heard the monkey talking, and replied with a smile: "There was an old woman who also helped here before, and there was no war in the city in the past two days, so I let her go home and hide." ”

"In the past, business was not good, and there was nothing to do to recruit waiters, so it was done, no one ordered Chinese food before, and today I entrusted the blessing of the two, otherwise the craft of Lu cuisine can only be practiced at home!"

As Boss Zhang spoke, he went into the back kitchen, and the sound of stir-frying came from inside after a while.

Li Jing and the monkey looked at each other with a smile, looked around boredly, and casually chatted about some of the things that were not there! Occasionally, help to clean up the table and greet the guests or something, it's easy to be at ease!

The diners who came after that were a little puzzled and did not understand the role of these two German officers here. Fortunately, after the German army entered the city, it did not interfere too much with the lives of ordinary people, so there was no uneasiness among the ordinary people.

Finally, the restaurant gradually became less crowded, and Li Jing and the monkey also found an empty table and sat down. Boss Zhang was also a little more relaxed, sent a pot of used tableware into the back kitchen, and then walked out empty-handed, hammered his waist with his right hand, and sat next to Li Jing with grinning teeth.

"I said Boss Zhang, hurry up and let your aunt come over, you are really busy here, the battle is over, you have also seen it, there will be no soldiers to embarrass you!"

"Alas, I'll go and call the old woman in the afternoon, how old are you......"

The monkey seemed to think of something funny, and couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Hehe! ”

Boss Zhang couldn't help but be stunned when he heard the laughter, and sighed: "Don't say it, I feel more and more that you two are the babies of our Huaguo, if it weren't for this look, I wouldn't have any doubts at all...... It's a pity ......"

"What a pity?"

"It's a pity that he has a crooked face, and at first glance he is not a baby of our Huaguo!"

The monkey couldn't help but be anxious: "You can see this, we grew up in China since we were children, and we are authentic Chinese people......"

Boss Zhang stared at the monkey for a while, shaking his head again and again, obviously not believing.

The monkey looked at Li Jing's face and argued: "Isn't it a little whiter...... The eye socket is a little deeper...... The nose is a little stiffer...... "I can't talk anymore when I say it, don't look at it, it's changed a little, and the smell is not like that."

Well, I can't explain it.
