The black guy quickly applied the sauce on it, then folded the bread, wrapped it in paper and handed it to Jiang Hua.
Jiang Hua paid and started eating while standing next to the dining car. The black guy asked, "Would you like a drink?"
"Let's have a Coke."
The black man neatly took a cup of Coke in a paper cup and handed it over, and then said: "My name is Mike."
Jiang Hua took a bite of the hot dog and said, "My name is Jiang Hua. You can call me Jiang or Hua."
Jiang Hua took another sip of Coke. It had been a long time since he had tasted it. He hadn't tasted this taste in so many years. He really missed it.
"You are different from those flower growers."
Jiang Hua turned his head and glanced at him, then asked, "What's the difference?"
Mike thought for a while and said: "At least they didn't buy my hot dogs. They are always in a hurry and serious."
Jiang Hua was speechless. Could you tell Mike that our salary is not high and we are all used to saving. We all need to save money to support our families in Hukou.
"I've been looking forward to someone coming out of that building to buy my hot dog, and then I'd have a good chat with him."
Jiang Hua shrugged: "So, now you get your wish."
Mike asked curiously: "Jiang, is that what you are called? Can you tell me why you are different from those in those movies?"
"Those movies?"
Jiang Hua has really never seen those foreign movies before the 1980s. The ugly Chinese movies at that time were full of slander against us flower growers.
Mike danced and said: "It's those villains with slender eyes and braids, such as Fu Manchu."
Jiang Hua really knows this character. It is said that this character has become the embodiment of the fear that ugly people have towards us.
Jiang Hua shook his head and said: "That is the arrogance and prejudice of some arrogant people. In fact, they know nothing about flower growers."
Mike smiled and said: "Yes, they really know nothing. I have been selling hot dogs here for two years. Although I have not made any transactions with the people in that building, I also found that they are all good people.
"
Jiang Hua finished the hot dog in three mouthfuls, drank the Coke in the cup, and said with a smile: "Your cooking skills are good, the hot dog is quite delicious."
Mike said excitedly: "Hey, you know the goods. You know Mike. You should go back and promote it to your colleagues and tell them how delicious Mike's hot dogs are."
Jiang Hua could only say tactfully: "Mike, there are some things you don't understand. There are countless delicacies in the flower garden. Even if you spend your whole life tasting them, and every meal is different, you will never forget it in your life."
"Hey, Jiang, are you lying to Mike? I'm not an ignorant country bumpkin. There aren't so many dishes in a Gallic dinner. Your lie is a bit outrageous."
Jiang Hua smiled and said: "Mike, you know nothing about flower growers. Maybe you can go to Chinatown and ask a few more people. Then you will know whether what I said is a lie."
Jiang Hua threw the paper cup into the trash can, then said, "I'm glad I could chat with you for so long. If there is a chance, I'll treat you to a feast at the flower grower's house."
Mike put his hands in and said, "Okay, you don't look like you are lying to me. You are my first friend who is a flower grower. I will remember your feast."
Jiang Hua smiled and walked slowly back to the station.
Zhang Kai saw him coming back and greeted him: "How are you? Feel a little more energetic. Let's go have a meal."
Jiang Hua waved his hand: "No, there was a stall in the park just now. I bought a hot dog and ate it. It tasted pretty good."
"You are so willing." Zhang Kai said with a smile: "No matter how cheap the food on the fast food truck is, it still costs us several dollars."
"I'm single and don't have to support my family, so I wanted to give it a try, but the black stall owner complained."
Zhang Kai asked curiously: "What are you complaining about?"
"He said that he has been setting up a stall next to our station for two years, but he has not reached a deal with any comrade, which makes him very frustrated."
Zhang Kai burst out laughing and asked, "You didn't tell him the truth, did you?"
"I can only tell him that there are so many delicious flowers and flowers that everyone can't finish them, so how can they have time to eat hot dogs?"
"The little brain is thinking very fast, so the black people probably won't believe it, right?"
Jiang Hua said nonchalantly: "Believe it or not, I asked him to go to Chinatown to find out. Those compatriots are probably even more exaggerated than what I said."
Zhang Kai nodded: "Indeed, I guess he will have to break the bank and eat an ugly Chinese meal. I hope it won't ruin his good impression."
Jiang Hua waved his hand and said, "It's okay. Whenever the cafeteria makes dumplings or steamed buns, I'll bring two for him to try. I still don't believe in the delicacies of Tangtang Huazhong's family. Five thousand years of history still can't conquer a black guy."
Zhang Kai said with a smile: "This is simple. The master chef in our cafeteria has first-class craftsmanship and often makes these delicacies. When the time comes, put a lunch box and let the black man have a taste."
The two of them walked in side by side, and Jiang Hua asked, "Master, what work do you have for me today?"
"Not urgent."
When the two of them entered the office, Zhang Kai pulled out a folder containing thick documents and placed it in front of Jiang Hua.
"Here are some taboos from the ugly country. You should familiarize yourself with them and memorize them. In your future work, you must not violate these taboos in your life."
"clear."
Jiang Hua looked through the folder and looked at it seriously.
Zhang Kai said: "If you get tired of watching, you can go to a driver and learn how to drive. If you work in Chou Country, it will be very troublesome if you don't know how to drive."
In the next week, Jianghua's characters will study, learn to drive, study documents, and learn the common laws of Chou Country.
Fortunately, Jiang Hua had a sharp ear and eyes, a flexible mind, and quick hands and feet. It only took a short time to get the driver's license and finally passed Zhang Kai's assessment.
"Have a good rest today. I will take you to visit a compatriot tomorrow."
Jiang Hua was very happy that it was finally his turn to work. Although he was accompanied by his master Zhang Kai, it was still more exciting than sitting at his desk reading information all the time.
The next day, Jiang Hua got up early, washed himself, styled his hair like a smart boy, put on a crisp suit, and waited for Zhang Kai early.
Zhang Kai was also startled when he saw Jiang Hua: "Hey, I am very energetic today. My hair is combed meticulously. It makes people feel comfortable just looking at it."
"That's my first official job. We have to leave a good impression, and we have to make our compatriots think that we are full of energy."
Zhang Kai threw the car keys to Jiang Hua and said with a smile: "Okay, I'll let you drive today and I'll show you the way, but don't lead me into a ditch."
"cant!"
Jiang Hua got into the cab, turned the key, pressed the clutch lightly and slowly applied the gas. The car left the station with smoke coming from behind.
