Chapter 410 A Day of Shopping and Eating
Wang Qi was still sleeping when he was woken up by a knock on the door. At the door was the breakfast that Gong Yoo had the hotel deliver.
He looked at the time. It was already eight or nine o'clock, so he didn't plan to go to bed. After a simple wash, Wang Qi sat in the living room and ate breakfast while sending a message to Yang Xueer.
Yang Xueer went out early in the morning and took the bus back to the city. Now she is more than halfway through the journey. In about another hour, she will reach the city.
She spent the whole night last night making plans and planned to take Gong Yoo and the others to have a good time in Pengcheng for two days.
At half past ten in the morning, Yang Xueer arrived at the hotel.
Seeing that everyone had already had breakfast, she canceled her original plan to have breakfast. The first stop in the morning was the Pengcheng Museum, where they saw the Golden Jade Burial Suit. When they left, Kong Liu and Gu Chenxi each bought a commemorative coin, Gu Chenxi bought a gold coin and Kong Liu bought a silver coin.
After visiting the Pengcheng Museum, Yang Xueer took a few people to a small restaurant for lunch.
The moment they saw the menu, their eyes popped out.
Among the stir-fried dishes, spicy shredded potatoes are only four yuan, mapo tofu is seven yuan, stir-fried cauliflower is eight yuan, and mu shu pork is fifteen yuan.
The price of the dishes is not expensive, pickled fish is 22, braised pork is 30, and clay pot chicken is 25.
These prices shocked Gu Chenxi and Kong Liu, two people from Zhonghai. However, Wang Qi, who is from the north, was not so surprised.
Gong Yoo looked at the menu and asked, "Did I give you the wrong menu?"
Gu Chenxi also said with some doubt: "Four yuan for a serving of shredded potatoes, can't it be just enough for two bites?"
Gu Chenxi had only seen this kind of price in the fast food area of Jiaotong University cafeteria - one yuan for shredded potatoes, and the auntie would scoop a spoonful and put it on the rice, which was about the amount for two mouthfuls. That was why she had this idea.
"No, that's the price. The food comes in a large plate, and one portion of shredded potatoes alone is enough to feed one person."
Seeing the surprised expressions of the two, Yang Xueer said with a smile, "This small restaurant is next to the Construction Institute. Usually, students come here to eat. My cousin used to go to college in the Construction Institute, and he brought me here."
"Now that you mention it, I'm a little curious."
As Kong Yoo spoke, he ordered a Pengcheng clay pot chicken, Gu Chenxi ordered a fried fish with garlic, and a serving of shredded potatoes for four yuan, Wang Qi and Yang Xueer looked at the menu, and ordered clams and a serving of cumin lamb, and a meatball and egg soup.
There were five dishes and a soup in total. After the boss read the menu, he looked at the people and said, "Can you finish this many orders?"
Yang Xueer said with a smile: "It's okay, Auntie, if you can't finish it, we can pack it up!"
After the boss left, Gu Chenxi asked curiously, "Is this a lot?"
"Hehe." Yang Xueer smiled mysteriously, and said, "Senior sister will know in a while."
When the five dishes and egg soup were served, Kong Liu and Gu Chenxi were dumbfounded again.
The portions of the five dishes were larger than the last. The boss served the four-dollar dish of shredded potatoes on a white porcelain plate that was bigger than his face. What Yang Xueer said was true. The shredded potatoes alone were enough to fill a person.
After five people finished their meal, there was still a lot of food left.
Gong Yoo and the others packed up everything, took it back to the hotel, heated it up in the microwave and had a meal.
Gong Yoo looked at the two bags of food and said with a smile, "If I had known the quantity would be so large, I shouldn't have ordered so much."
Yang Xueer waved her hands and said, "It's okay, it's okay, just enjoy your meal."
She stood up to pay the bill, and the three men did not argue with her.
Before coming, Yang Xueer told several people in the car that she would definitely treat everyone to their first meal in Pengcheng. This is the way Pengcheng people entertain their friends.
Before leaving the house in the morning, her father transferred a lot of money to Yang Xueer, repeatedly emphasizing that they must not lose their manners and that he wanted to treat Kong Liu and the others to a good meal.
Seeing Yang Xueer coming back after paying, the three of them asked curiously, "How much is the total?"
Several people had been curious about this matter since they were having dinner. Kong Liu even made a rough estimate in his mind that the cost of the food alone would be around ninety or so.
Yang Xueer said, "It's not expensive. The rice and the dishes are only one hundred and eleven in total."
Five dishes plus a soup, four people still had half of the portion left. In Zhonghai, it is hard to imagine that a portion of shredded potatoes in Zhonghai costs more than ten yuan, and in high-end restaurants it costs sixty or seventy yuan, and that is the amount for a bite.
Yang Xueer probably felt that it was not very presentable to treat Gong Liu and his friends to such a cheap restaurant, so she said, "This meal is indeed a bit cheap, let's just eat it casually, and I will treat you to a big dinner tonight!"
Gong Liu quickly waved his hands and said, "No, no, no, this is called good quality and low price, it's very cost-effective!"
Gu Chenxi followed up by saying, "Yes, this meal is no worse than that in a big hotel!"
Wang Qi, who was standing next to Yang Xueer, immediately said, "No matter what, Xueer and I will treat you to a more sumptuous meal tonight as a thank you for your help."
Gong Liu smiled and said, "Look at what you two said, we really think this meal is very good!"
Gu Chenxi also nodded: "That's right."
But no matter what the two said, Wang Qi and Yang Xueer were still very determined to treat them to another meal.
In the afternoon, the four of them went to climb Yunlong Mountain together.
In order to give Yang Xueer and Wang Qi space to be alone together, Kong Liu and Gu Chenxi deliberately walked very slowly and pretended to be very tired, walking and stopping from time to time. In fact, they were not tired at all - the two of them insisted on jogging in the morning every day and had great physical strength.
Yunlong Mountain is not high, and it didn’t take long to climb to the top. At the top, the four of them found a kind passerby and took a group photo as a souvenir.
When we were going down the mountain, we also visited Yunlong Lake and walked around the area.
There were so many people on May Day that there were people everywhere you went. There were also special police officers carrying anti-explosion batons patrolling the streets. Maybe because they were handsome, many people took photos with the special police officers. Places with special police officers became "check-in" attractions.
Yang Xueer looked at the scene and couldn't help but complain: "Tsk, tsk, tsk, Pengcheng's cultural tourism is doing so well this year. Pengcheng even feels unfamiliar to me."
The afternoon passed quickly. In the evening, Yang Xueer and Wang Qi originally wanted to invite Kong Liu and Gu Chenxi to dinner at a big hotel, but they were rejected. The food in the big hotel had no appeal to Kong Liu and Gu Chenxi at all.
The two young masters and young ladies wanted to try the local specialties. After some discussion, they finally decided to eat Pengcheng barbecue.
When they arrived at the barbecue restaurant, Kong Liu and Gu Chenxi looked at the table with lamb skewers grilled on a charcoal stove and were attracted by this fresh way of eating - they had seen this way of eating on the Internet but had never tried it themselves.
