Li Xiaofei rode his modified motorcycle, carrying his aunt and Xiaojie, to the legal area.
This was Xiaojie's first time in a legal area other than school. She was very excited along the way, looking at the high-rise buildings around her and chattering non-stop.
Especially the business district in the city center.
Broad streets, buildings with glass facades, various large screens, naked-eye 4D advertisements...
Compared with the slums, it seems like another planet.
Xiaojie's eyes widened.
This scenery is so wonderful and beautiful.
"It turns out there are such beautiful places in the world."
Xiaojie exclaimed.
Li Xiaofei said, "From now on, our slums will be more beautiful and beautiful than this one."
I took the two girls for a walk around the downtown business district.
Then we came to the Starry Sky Building.
The designated purchasing location for several shopping tickets that were previously officially awarded is the ‘Starry Sky Supermarket’ on the first floor of the building.
The three of them went shopping in the supermarket.
Xiaojie was still in a state of excitement.
Look east, look west.
It's like visiting a fantasy amusement park.
Li Xiaofei took out his shopping ticket and bought two kilograms of fresh vegetables, half a kilogram of tomatoes, three apples, and then bought a barrel of ten kilograms of flour.
Although there was a shopping ticket, it still cost the entire 12,000 star coins.
For many middle-class people in the base city, this is considered a massive purchase.
After shopping, it was almost noon.
Li Xiaofei originally wanted to have a big meal at the restaurant on the sixth floor of the shopping mall.
But Xiaojie would not agree to anything she said.
The little girl forcefully dragged Li Xiaofei out of the Starry Sky Building .
"The things here are too expensive."
She said resolutely, "Brother, we won't spend that wasted money. If you really want to have a big meal, let's find a cheaper place that is affordable, large in quantity, and delicious."
My aunt also agreed.
"All right."
Li Xiaofei surrendered to two women who were diligent and thrifty.
Finally, the three of them came to a hot pot restaurant on Congtai Road in the outer area of the business district.
"welcome."
The waiter came over immediately and took the three of them to sit down at table No. 12 in the lobby.
“Sihai self-service hotpot, online reviews are very good, large portion and full...”
Li Xiaofei said.
To be honest, this is also the first time he has eaten hot pot since time travel.
Take a look at the menu.
Meat is cheap, vegetables are expensive.
Noodles are more expensive.
But the most expensive thing is the various dipping sauces.
Things like vinegar, chili peppers, and crushed peanuts are dozens of times more expensive than meat.
Because in this era, it is easy to hunt star beasts, but it is difficult to grow crops.
But growing seasoning crops like peppers and peanuts is difficult.
Limited land and water resources must be used to grow real staple foods.
It's completely different from five hundred years ago.
Li Xiaofei thought it would be hard to come out once, so he ordered some.
After clicking, settle the account.
Good guy.
The food bowls add up to half of the cost.
"Sir, please pay first and then eat."
The restaurant manager came over and said with the bill.
Li Xiaofei unexpectedly said, "Don't you eat first and pay the bill later?"
The restaurant manager is a middle-aged woman, dressed very exquisitely, with a high-tech look on her face. The expression on her face is unabashedly discriminatory. She said, "I'm sorry, sir, please pay the bill first before you can enjoy our service."
"Then why don't they pay first?"
Li Xiaofei pointed to the tables next to him.
The restaurant manager didn't speak, he just glanced up and down at the clothes of several people.
Li Xiaofei did not wear the 'Ming Gentleman' suit, while Xiaojie and her aunt were also very plainly dressed.
It doesn't look like someone who can afford to spend money in a store like this.
Oh shit.
Being discriminated against.
Li Xiaofei didn't want to ruin his good mood today, so he directly scanned the QR code with his computer and checked out in advance.
When the restaurant manager saw that he could really afford it, a smile immediately appeared on his face and he said, "You three are welcome. If you need anything, you can call the waiter at any time."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Xiaojie looked around timidly.
It was the first time she came to such a 'high-end' restaurant, and she was a little at a loss.
My aunt was sitting very quietly.
"There is a classmate from our school over there."
Xiaojie suddenly said quietly.
Li Xiaofei looked in the direction she pointed.
Sitting by the window across four rows of tables was a family of about three.
A middle-aged fat woman with heavy makeup, a bald and muscular man with flowery arms, and a fat little girl wearing a pink princess dress with hairpins and a pink cross-body bag.
The classmate Xiaojie mentioned was probably that little girl.
"Go and say hello? "
Li Xiaofei said.
Xiaojie shook her head and said, "I don't like Kong Xinyue. She often bullies people in school."
Li Xiaofei was moved in his heart and asked, "Have you been bullied too?"
Xiaojie shook her head repeatedly and said, "No, no."
Li Xiaofei didn't think much, stood up and said, "I'll make the dipping sauce."
He knew the tastes of the two of them very well, so he carried three bowls and walked towards the condiment table in the distance.
Because the seasonings are cheaper than the main dishes, there are two waiters standing here, staring at everyone who comes to get the ingredients, for fear that someone will take more.
Li Xiaofei arrived at the food counter and saw that there were not many varieties.
He had just adjusted the three-point mixing bowl when suddenly a piercing scream came from the dining area behind him.
Then came the high-decibel sound of shouting and cursing.
There was a faint sound of a loud slap in the face.
He turned around and looked, and his expression suddenly darkened.
In the distance, beside table 12.
The middle-aged woman with heavy makeup was jumping to her feet and yelling, "You little bitch, you stole something from my house, and you didn't admit it. Instead, you threw her new toy. Whose child has such no tutoring? His parents will die."
where it goes?"
Xiaojie covered her face with tears in her eyes, "I didn't throw it, it was her... I didn't steal your stuff either. We bought these vegetables and fruits ourselves."
"It's you, it's you, little poor guy. You snatched the toy from my hand and threw it to the ground."
The little girl wearing a pink princess dress had a proud look on her face and said arrogantly, "Besides, how can a poor dog like you, a wild dog from the slums, afford the fruits and vegetables from Starry Sky Supermarket? Huh, you bastard."
Liar."
As he said this, he started to tear Xiaojie's hair.
