"Didn't you sleep well last night?" Lin Kun raised his head and glanced at Cao Gang in the rearview mirror.
"I slept late last night, but don't worry, boss, I won't delay my work." Cao Gang immediately confirmed with a panicked look.
"Did something happen at home?"
"yes……"
Cao Gang hesitated for a moment and said, "My daughter suddenly had a fever yesterday and stayed in the hospital until midnight."
"How is the child doing now?" Lin Kun asked.
"Thanks to the leadership relationship, the fever went away last night. I asked for leave today to rest at home," Cao Gang said.
Lin Kun stopped continuing the topic. The car had already entered the city. It was not yet the morning rush hour for work, and there were not many cars on the road.
"Cao Gang, let's find a place to have something to eat." Lin Kun said.
"Boss, you didn't have breakfast?" Cao Gang asked carefully.
"I've been busy feeding the fish, but I haven't eaten anything. Let's not go to the agency canteen this morning. We'll just find one on the street. Do you have any recommendations?"
"Yes, there is one, but I'm afraid you, the leader, may not look down on it."
"Everyone eats whole grains, so there's no such thing as looking down on them."
"The place is too shabby, and..."
"I just have a question." Lin Kun said with a smile: "How does the food taste?"
Cao Gang immediately expressed his assurance, "Everything is definitely good. There is no artificial fraud or inferior quality. The taste is very authentic!"
There are several temporary food trucks parked at the gate of Mota City No. 2 High School.
The Second High School has been built for more than thirty years. The campus covers an adequate area, but the buildings there are already old, showing signs of time in the sunshine.
In the morning, there were many students and parents coming and going at the gate of the campus. In addition, there was a residential area nearby, and there was an endless stream of people passing by on their way to work.
Although the breakfast at Yuehu Villa is good, it is not as good as the street stalls here where you can see people's livelihood.
Lin Kun has never been a parent official in the past, but he is an out-and-out common man and knows where to start if he wants to understand the people's livelihood.
Now that he has no real power in his hands, he just takes advantage of the opportunity to learn more about people's livelihood.
Naturally, Cao Gang didn't think much about it. He just thought that the leader must have eaten too much delicious food and was tired of it. He wanted to go out for a change.
The car didn't come over, so I found an empty space on the roadside near the community and parked it. (One Zero)
"Boss, two drawers of Zhuangyuan steamed buns, two bowls of tofu curd, two each of fried dough sticks and glutinous rice cakes, and two of your secret Zhuangyuan braised eggs."
Cao Gang ordered the meal skillfully and wiped the plastic chair on the temporary seat for Lin Kun. When Lin Kun sat down, he brought a plastic chair and sat on it directly.
"If we order so much, can we eat it?" Lin Kunchong asked Cao Gang.
"I must be able to eat it!" Cao Gang said. (01)
Lin Kun was dubious and looked at the other tables around him. The tables in front of the dining car were all full of people, including students and adults. There were plenty of steamed buns, fried dough sticks and the like on their tables.
Cao Gang was very nervous in front of Lin Kun, but after arriving at the breakfast stall, he gained confidence. There was no table at all, so he pulled an empty table and two chairs from a stall next to him.
My business is not as good as this one, but I am still happy to borrow things. It can be seen that Cao Gang is very familiar with the owners of these two stalls.
"Gangzi, you haven't been here for a long time. Where did you get rich recently?" The boss was a middle-aged man, who brought up two drawers of steamed buns first.
"How can you get rich? Just go to work and support your family." Cao Gang said.
"This is..." The stall owner looked at Lin Kun.
"This is my collar..."
Cao Gang opened his mouth to introduce, but Lin Kun interrupted him with a smile: "I am Cao Gang's friend. I was hungry, so he brought me over."
"Okay, Gangzi, you have made such a decent friend." The stall owner Gu Daqiang smiled at Cao Gang, then turned to Lin Kun and said: "Gangzi and I have known each other for a long time. Friends of friends are friends. Let's
This is our first meeting. If you don’t mind my humble conditions, today’s meal must be mine. After you’ve finished eating, please come and visit me more often.”
After speaking, Gu Daqiang stretched out his hand to Lin Kun, "My name is Gu Daqiang."
"Forest……"
Before Lin Kun could finish his words, Gu Daqiang immediately retracted his hand and said sheepishly: "It's better not to shake hands, my hands are full of oil."
The stall was a couple's stall. Gu Daqiang's wife was frying fried dough sticks there and shouted to him: "We have a guest, you can talk to Gangzi later."
Cao Gang said hello to the landlady, and Gu Daqiang continued his work.
Gu Daqiang's foot is lame. It is not noticeable when he walks slowly, but it is obvious when he walks fast.
Lin Kun sat down and took a bite of the steamed buns. He was really hungry. Not to mention, the "No. 1 Yuan Bao" tasted really good. It was definitely different from the Xiao Long Bao that you can often eat in breakfast restaurants.
The buns have thin skin and thick fillings, and the meat inside has a moderate texture, so you must be particular about the ingredients you choose.
Tofu curd and fried dough sticks came one after another, and Cao Gang asked Lin Kun to try them both.
Lin Kun took a bite of fried dough sticks and drank a sip of tofu. Both fried dough sticks and tofu are sold all over the country. Gu Daqiang and his wife couldn't do anything fancy, but when they ate and drank in their mouths, it was two words - authentic.
While Lin Kun was eating steamed buns, he looked at the busy Gu Daqiang couple. The couple had a kind face and must be honest and abiding by the rules when doing business.
"When did your two friends meet?" Lin Kun asked Cao Gang.
Cao Gang was a big man and had a big appetite. He was sure of the things he just ordered, even if Lin Kun couldn't finish them, he could eat them all.
"Dayong and I are from the same hometown, and later we came to work here together. About six years ago, there was an accident in the mine, and Dayong's leg was injured. Since then, he has been unable to do any heavy work, and was given the job by the mine.
He was fired, but as for the first two children in the family, he and his wife went out to set up a breakfast stall, and his wife was steaming.
They are good at making steamed buns, and the things they sell are clean and hygienic, and the ingredients used are very particular, so the business is so good, but in fact they can't make much money. The stuffing of these steamed buns is honest, but the price is only
The buns are 50 cents more expensive than the buns at ordinary breakfast stalls, so Dayong and his wife are following the route of small profits but quick turnover."
Cao Gang sat up straight and reported everything to Lin Kun. He came to the breakfast stall and sat face to face with Lin Kun. He was a little more relaxed at first, but after all, he was the leader. Lin Kun asked
When he said that, he immediately put down his chopsticks.
"Boss Gu, business is good!" Two young men dressed in fashionable clothes came over with their pockets in hand.
When Gu Daqiang and his wife saw these two young men, they frowned at first, and then smiled, "Here are the two brothers, have you had breakfast? Let's take two drawers of the top pick buns that have just been cooked."
?”
"Okay, I just didn't have breakfast, so I'll add two more bowls of soy milk."
The two young men looked around and saw that there were no empty seats, so they walked directly to a table next to where people were sitting. The ones eating were two little girls in school uniforms, female students from the second high school.
"Little sister, are you full?"
"without……"
One of the little girls raised her head and was about to speak when her unfinished soy milk bowl was picked up by a young man with pierced ears and spit into it.
The little girl's face was stunned for a moment, and her big eyes were filled with tears... (To be continued)
