Nine hundred and ninetieth chapters market atmosphere
Huo Tianting and Sun Hu have known about Liu Lang's language talent for a long time. Shao Mingtao doesn't know much about it. Hearing Liu Lang's pure Cantonese is really envious. He stays here for several months a year and can speak a little more Cantonese in a few years.
He didn't learn it, so he could barely understand it, and Liu Lang had never lived here at all, so he spoke in standard Cantonese, which was really incomparable to others.
In addition to Liu Lang, Huo Tianting, Shao Mingtao and Sun Hu, Huo Tianting also brought a bodyguard, a total of five people. Under the leadership of "Er Linzi", they arrived at the second floor. The second floor was almost full.
There were two empty tables, and several people sat at a table by the window. The empty table next to "Er Lin Tsai" had a "booked" sign on it. This table had no seats, so it was reserved.
Huo Tianting left an empty space.
"Er Linzai, bring out your best stuff, no matter what it is, as long as it's delicious!"
Huo Tianting didn't order anything and just let the other party serve it.
"No problem, we'll meet you later."
"This is the scene of the city. I haven't felt this way for a long time."
Liu Lang was a little emotional.
In the previous life, Liu Lang was a small person, and naturally he couldn't go to those high-end places to eat or anything. But this life was different. It really felt like there was no one who came and went. Liu Lang couldn't even think of eating in those small places.
Liu Lang is an ordinary person, or he has the heart of an ordinary person. Even if he has an extraordinary brain and more than 20 years of knowledge in the future, he is still an ordinary person. This is how "nature is hard to change", but objectively he has
It’s not allowed. There aren’t many street food stalls in Fucheng, so we can’t talk about “having fun with the people.”
When you arrive in the capital, you just have to do business. Of course, those who can work with Liu Lang are all big shots. Of course it is not appropriate to eat at street stalls. On Hong Kong Island, the snacks here are really the best. Even the rich will frequent them. They are not so
The reason for being so scrupulous is also related to my own experience. None of these people are born rich, such as the heads of the Huo family, Li family, and Zheng family.
Even though they are doing whatever it takes now, decades ago they were members of the masses, doing hard work such as carrying bags and delivering goods. The snack shops on the streets were the places they frequented. Maybe at that time
They only wanted to fill their stomachs, but they also left behind an unforgettable memory. These are unforgettable memories that they will never forget even if they die.
For example, this Lin Ji Wang Shop was a place that Huo Nansheng often visited. Later, when the Huo family bought the surrounding land, they specially reserved a shop for him. It was more than 100 square meters and it was located in Central. This house was worth a lot.
One million, and it will appreciate in value in the future. The one-million-dollar house was just given to the other party. It was not that the Huo family felt pity for the other party, but the taste was unforgettable.
This is the strong small-market feeling of Hong Kong people. Outsiders, especially those from the capital, think they are not grand, but Liu Lang likes this down-to-earth feeling, which makes him very comfortable.
After a while, the "Er Linzi" came over with a waiter.
"Everyone, this is our fish ball and shrimp soup, try it first!"
Soup is a must-have food for Hong Kong Islanders. In their diet, it is not a meal without soup.
"Well, the smell is very strong!"
Liu Lang couldn't wait to take it, put it slightly close to his mouth, blew it and took a sip.
"Wow, fresh!"
This soup is so delicious that it almost melts on your tongue.
Liu Lang ate another fish ball, then closed his eyes and looked like he was enjoying it.
"Liu Lang, isn't it delicious?"
Huo Tianting asked with a smile.
“This decades-old restaurant is indeed extraordinary and delicious!”
Liu Lang nodded repeatedly.
Just after eating half a bowl, the vinegar chicken feet, fried shrimp tails, and stir-fried clams were served. Each dish had a unique taste. Liu Lang didn't care about the image and started to enjoy it. Don't say it was him.
Sun Hu was also full of praise. He had eaten many delicacies with Liu Lang, but none of them were as satisfying as Hong Kong Island snacks.
"It's delicious! This is the taste I want. It not only tastes good, but also has a general feeling. This is the essence of it, great!"
In fact, Liu Lang is right. Are these snacks really delicious? Not necessarily. In terms of materials, seasoning and cooking ability, they cannot compare with the chefs of Michelin restaurants. Liu Lang has tasted the dishes they made, and it is really
You get what you pay for, and it can be called a delicacy. Michelin restaurants not only serve exquisite dishes, but also have an elegant environment. They are often accompanied by Beethoven's piano music, which can be said to be extremely elegant.
But Liu Lang doesn't like it. What he likes is a lively environment. Everyone sits around and "talks" and "boasts" each other. The Zhang family and the Li family are noisy. This is the proper environment, so Liu Lang really
What I like is the mood of eating, just like now.
There should be a couple not far in front of Liu Lang's table. They look like office workers. The two of them were eating and discussing the day's work. Although the sound was low, Liu Lang's ears were sensitive and he could hear it.
Really true.
The woman kept complaining about the company's overtime work, and the man tried to persuade her and at the same time told her some interesting stories about his company to amuse her.
Behind the couple sat three middle-aged men. They must be old friends. They were discussing family issues. Their son was not good at studying and could only go to night school to get a degree. His daughter was unhappy in her marriage and he was getting married.
To persuade, my grandson is about to go to elementary school, but he has a withdrawn personality and has interviewed at several schools but failed.
This is the spirit of the market, which makes Liu Lang feel the same.
"Brother Huo, the one thing that makes me nostalgic about this small place in Hong Kong is the food here. You have to bring me here more often in small shops like this. I like it so much!"
"Ha, as long as you stay here, I will take you to eat every day. However, although Hong Kong Island is only a small place, there are so many small shops. Even if you eat from three shops a day, I am afraid it will take several years to finish all the food."
Huo Tianting laughed.
“It tastes really good, but it’s a bit bland. It would be better if I added some salt!”
Shao Mingtao is from the north and has very strong taste.
"Brother Shao, eating too much salt is bad for your health and can easily lead to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, so you should eat less salt in the future. You should learn from the people in the south. Their diet is very healthy!"
"Mr. Liu, you also have research on diet...? That's right. What don't you know? But I can't listen to you in this regard. Fortunately, I hired a northern chef to cook for us. I'll ask him tomorrow
I'll show you my hands."
Half an hour later, several people finished eating. Liu Lang patted his stomach and felt a little full. His appetite was huge, not much different from Huo Tianting.
"Okay, finished eating, let's go!"
After Liu Lang finished speaking, he stood up, and several other people also stood up. But at this moment, there was a noise from below, and then there was the sound of people going upstairs. Along with the noise of chirping, five people in their twenties stood up.
