505. strike up a conversation

"Why do you suddenly want to eat these today?"

Gu Yun led Wen Jue across a road, opposite the Mark Food Market.

This is the food city on Jianghan Road, and it is now a new landmark for internet celebrities to check in.

Since the food city opened, its neon signs and trendy designs have been listed in various Jiangcheng travel guides. Especially at night, this place is super popular.

"You don't know, my mother has to go to work during the day, and I order takeout at home. I order it every day. I'm tired of eating, and I just want to eat some snacks that can't be found in Hangzhou."

Walking into the food city, Wen Jue took Gu Yun's arm, with a sweet smile on his face that raised a crescent moon.

"Okay, okay, let's eat more today."

Gu Yun has never been able to resist Wen Jue's demands and willfulness. Compared with the other two girlfriends, Wen Jue likes to take Gu Yun shopping and eating big meals the most. As a first-generation Internet celebrity, she doesn't know how to interact with Wen Jue.

Gu Yun checked in to many niche and expensive high-end restaurants.

But in fact, the delicacies in mark food market are also worth eating.

Fried chicken, milk tea, crispy pork belly, handmade shrimp paste, bean curd, crispy dumplings, yogurt hemp flower, Changsha stinky tofu, whatever you want to eat, you can find it here.

In addition, there are Korean food, spicy hot pot, etc. On the top floor is a real-life Internet celebrity restaurant with an area of ​​over 1,000 square meters. It has restored scenes from the Korean drama Reply 1988. It is a must-visit restaurant for many Korean drama fans.

The nightlife in Jiangcheng is actually relatively rich. Even after eleven o'clock, the food town is still crowded with people. Couples are shuttled in front of various snack stalls, which is full of human fireworks.

The charm of the food city snacks is that even if you are not hungry, you still have to come in and take a look.

It seems to be only one floor, but it accommodates many shops. The smallest shop is more than ten square meters, with a spare rib, Hunan style deep-fried, shell shell sixty-year-old, tilted shrimp slippery, barbecue tribe, Chongqing hot and sour rice noodles...

...

"I want to eat this!"

Wen Jue pointed at the long queue in front of the Tuji puff pastry stall and looked at Gu Yun eagerly.

Tuji Butter Cake has a history of more than 20 years in Jiangcheng.

When it is open, there are often dozens of people waiting there. This scene has become a unique scenery on Jianghan Road.

If the sliced ​​roast duck next to the Tuji puff pastry is the most beloved summer delicacy on Jianghan Road, then the Tuji puff pastry, which is only open in the last two seasons, is another delicacy etched in Jiangcheng’s memory.

The soft dough is rolled out, filled with fillings, and rounded into the oil pan, making stars of oil splash.

The round pastry pancakes rotated and jumped in the pot relying on external force, dancing a passionate samba dance, and the white jade body was covered with a yellow robe, glowing with burning light.

Freshly baked shortbread is the most tempting.

"Okay, I'll line up that one, and you go buy the others first."

Gu Yun couldn't help but swallowed his saliva. He nodded and stood at the end of the team.

Wen Jue turned to the Zhaoji Stir-fried Spicy Chicken next door. The chicken here is marinated with secret seasonings, deep-fried at high temperatures and stir-fried quickly with chili peppers.

Even if there is no staple food, Wen Jue and Gu Yun can still eat enough if they buy two together.

And this kind of fun of eating delicious food can only be enjoyed in the food city.

The disadvantage of the food court is that there are very few seats. There are only a few tables outside and seats inside the restaurant at the back. When there are many people, you can only take away.

"Boss, I want a pound of shortbread, how much does it cost?"

"Twenty yuan, just scan the code."

Gu Yun waited in line for ten minutes before getting the freshly baked shortbread.

He held it carefully in his hand for fear of breaking it.

Gu Yun looked around and saw that Wen Jue, who had already bought spicy chicken, had found a place to sit down.

It's just that there seems to be an extra boy beside me.

"Hi, I was waiting for a friend over there just now. I saw you passing by and thought you were very elegant, so I wanted to come over and say hello to you and get to know you."

A boy with the popular three-seven side parted hair and trendy brand clothes stood in front of Wen Jue and spoke familiar pick-up words.

Wen Jue was sitting alone on the street of the food city in the early morning. It was really difficult for someone to strike up a conversation on such an occasion.

After all, Wen Jue's appearance and temperament are outstanding in any occasion, let alone a relatively affordable area like the Food City.

It is really rare to see such a girl in daily life. In other words, without Gu Yun's company, she would never come to a place like this to eat alone.

Therefore, it is absolutely reasonable that beauty is a curse since ancient times. Beauty itself is a kind of luxury product, and wealth is a solid protective shell on the luxury product.

In a five-star or above hotel, which can also be said to be a luxury or luxurious hotel, whether you are eating or waiting for someone in the lobby, you will definitely encounter a few beauties that will make you look at them intently.

This is not to say that they are employees, but the consumer group of the hotel.

They might be tenants, they might be their female companions, or they might be having afternoon tea. There are beauties everywhere with exquisite clothes and make-up.

Even if some people have two children and force them to eat, they can still see their height, thin waist, and skin as thick as gelatin.

Money is a good thing, even youth can be bought.

Unlike most ordinary people who still have to make careful budgets for food, clothing, housing and transportation, people who often go to high-end hotels for service-oriented consumption are still a small group.

And beautiful appearance belongs to a small group of people. Capital is behind consumption, and so is beauty.

If you just stroll around SKP, International Plaza and other shopping malls of the same level, you will see a lot of stunning beauties inside, but even if the average quality is this high, Wen Jue is definitely the leader among them.

So Gu Yun only left for ten minutes, and Wen Jue was chatted up by a strange boy in the crowded food city.

"I'm sorry, I'm already married, so there's no need to get to know each other. My husband is very petty."

Wen Jue pursed her lips, stopped looking at the phone, raised the bracelet on her Hao wrist, and returned to her repulsive appearance.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "What did you say?"

Gu Yun saw this scene from a long distance away. After hearing Wen Jue's textbook answer, he felt sweet in his heart.

He took three steps and two steps at a time, sat next to Wen Jue, and glanced sideways at the man who was chatting with him.

"Then I won't bother you."

It was obviously not the first time that the man had struck up a conversation, and he seemed very polite. He felt that he would not receive the call this time, so he clasped his fists and turned to leave.

"Eat it for me, give it to me quickly~"

Wen Jue didn't take it seriously and just took the shortbread from Gu Yun's hand, bit it into pieces while it was still hot, and with a fragrant "kacha" sound, a piece of heaven and earth exploded in his mouth.

"Hey, who did you say was petty?"

Gu Yun came to his senses and felt the attention of the men on both sides of Wen Ju from behind.

"You know who you are talking about~"

Wen Jue chuckled. She had long been accustomed to chatting up people, but when Gu Yun was around, there weren't many men who dared to talk to her.

"You are quite skilled at being married. How many times have you used this excuse?"

Gu Yun thought to himself that in the life of a beautiful girl, the experience of being noticed and saluted by men every day is actually quite subtle.

This kind of constant attention and being admired by all the stars is actually a double-edged sword. On the one hand, wherever you go, you can be liked by a lot of people, and everything goes smoothly from childhood to adulthood.

On the other hand, if girls are not very smart, they are prone to be conceited and complacent, thinking that all good things are deserved and they can always be like this, thus easily falling into a trap.

The good times in life only last for a few years. When faced with good opportunities, beautiful women will be swept away by them, and they will also be swept away by the waves.

"It's okay. Ever since my aunt gave me the bracelet, I like to use this excuse. It's very useful."

Wen Jue stuck out the tip of his tongue playfully, picked up a piece of spicy chicken and put it into Gu Yun's mouth, feeling very proud.

"Is it yummy?"

"Uh-huh!"

Wen Jue nodded vigorously, his hands holding snacks looked like little squirrels storing food in winter, and the contentment in his starry eyes could not be hidden.

"I also have red bean paste and fresh meat flavor in this bag. You eat this first, and we'll go back and eat the other two."

Tuji Pastry has three flavors. The beef flavor in Wen Ju’s hands is rich and rich. The oily aroma of the crust hides the strong aroma of beef, and the minced beef has a slight numbing and spiciness.

This spicy and spicy mouthful conveys the pride and sharpness of the northwest grasslands.

The red bean paste flavor is filled with handmade red bean paste, which is sweet but not greasy.

What I especially recommend is the fresh meat flavor, which is the most original taste, with alternating fat and lean minced meat and chives, making people want to stop eating.

"Let me tell you, when I was gathering with some classmates in Hangzhou, the Internet celebrity restaurants where we ate every day were really unpalatable, but they just liked eating this and even dragged me to take pictures...

.”

Wen Jue snatched Gu Yun's milk tea, and Gu Du Gu took a big sip and started to complain.

Internet celebrity restaurants are often decorated with fancy decorations, with various frozen foods fried using the most traditional methods, and private dishes topped with various gimmicks.

Shamelessly, he will also try Michelin and Black Pearl. As long as the chef has washed the dishes with three Michelin stars, he can be regarded as a heritage, direct lineage, and second-class chef.

When it comes to external publicity, the word "stunning" is obviously not enough anymore. What's popular recently is "xx ceiling".

In this nascent era of Internet display, you can see above-average beauties anytime you go to this kind of Internet celebrity restaurant.

It’s either a bestie photo shoot, a love-making game where enemies pay for their love, a prelude to a scumbag’s moonlit night in front of his bed, or a two-time rejuvenation game for an engineering guy.

There are little girls on every table, and they all have long legs.

Although if you look closely, you will see that the girls’ bags are all donated by Outlet, their clothes are all popular Taobao products, and their lipstick colors are all sold out of stock by Brother Ma, who was deceived by the counter sister.

But when you are in this kind of store, the atmosphere of youth comes to your face every second, full of vitality, and the beauty of the prosperous age constructed by beautiful pictures is displayed in front of you.

“Having become accustomed to eating celebrity dinners, are you starting to miss these snacks?”

Gu Yun joked with a smile.

"It's boring. You have to eat with the people you like when you eat. You can't let go of eating with them. They all want to roll out of the sky and order four dishes. Everyone can say that they are full after just two quick strokes. This is

What's the meaning?"

After returning home, Wen Jue also had his own troubles.

"So I would rather order takeout at home than go check in and take photos with them. It's too tiring."

After Wen Jue had eaten and drank enough, he stood up and held Gu Yun's arm again. The two of them continued walking on the brightly lit street, slowly walking towards their den.

"And you know, one thing I discovered is that all takeaway restaurants in Hangzhou are Meituan takeaways."

"Yeah?"

Mentioning Meituan's food delivery, Gu Yun regained his energy.

Originally, capital did not recognize the potential of food delivery. A few years ago, group buying was more popular.

The "Thousand Regiments War" that started in 10 years deserves to be recorded in the history of the Internet.

Juhuasuan, Dianping, and Meituan were all born at this time. Internet companies such as Sina and Tencent also entered the market and started physical group buying. Each company spent money to attract new customers, provided huge subsidies, and the melee was chaotic.

A conservative estimate is that the domestic market has burned a total of 7 billion.

To put it simply, anyone with access to the Internet at that time could earn a few dollars from these group buying apps.

In this case, the competition is about whose ability to replenish blood is stronger. If you survive, you will be the king.

The one who finally escaped was Meituan.

Entrepreneur veteran Wang Xing led Meituan to avoid physical group buying and provide local life services, which was hard and tiring, and found another way to occupy the market.

When Wang Xing breathed a sigh of relief, he discovered that Ele.me had gradually become a big player in the food delivery industry, entering university campuses and office buildings in first- and second-tier cities.

Like Gu Yun, he first wanted to buy Ele.me, but the arrogant Zhang Xuhao refused.

Meituan has 5,000 people under its account, has roots in more than 200 cities, and serves countless service businesses. How can we allow others to sleep soundly under the bed?

This year, Meituan officially launched its food delivery business after Ele.me. It adopted a strategy of encircling and supporting businesses and took the lead in entering the sinking market that Ele.me had never set foot on.

"Yeah, don't you think it's strange? You've invested so much in it. In such an important city as Hangzhou, I can't find any Ele.me delivery merchants around."

Wen Jue has been the vice president for so long, and his business vision and strategic layout are evident. He is no longer the ignorant figure he was in his freshman year.

"really."

Gu Yun knew early on that his opponent was approaching fiercely.

Ele.me is a student army after all, and the result in his last life was that he was almost beaten while being held down.

Unexpectedly, with his intervention in this life, Ele.me has not made any fundamental changes.

After the services of the entire platform suddenly covered hundreds of cities, the average age of the management team was only 26 or 27 years old. There was really no way.

Even if it is obvious that the business staff is messing around and engaging in corruption, there is no time or energy to investigate them.

Meituan has gradually gained strength in the past few months, and Ele.me’s market share has been gradually broken and eroded by Meituan.

"What should we do?"

Wen Jue frowned and asked.

For her, there is essentially no difference between the companies in which Paradise Group invests and its own industry.

"It's okay. Let them go free and fight. I'll just inject capital and we'll talk about the rest later."

Gu Yun is as stable as Mount Tai.
