Three hours later, just after the peak lunch period, Yu Lian finally met his old classmate and roommate Reese, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, near the Green Locust City Airport. This was a family restaurant run by a filmmaker.
The main business is a variety of fragrant leaf cat rice and river fresh soup pots. The environment is comfortable, high-quality and cheap, but it has not been featured in those famous food magazines and programs. Yu Lian also learned from an obscure and unpopular travel forum by chance.
have witnessed.
When the short Philin boss heard that Yu Lian ordered the most expensive dish in the store, "The Brave General Hotpot", he was immediately happy to come over and exchange a few words. He presented two bottles of sweet wine and side dishes, and even came to serve the food himself. Like most of the people,
Like the people in the film industry, he also has a round, hairy and chubby body, but he walks quickly and has nimble hands and feet.
Speaking of which, like the Catai people, the Philin people also have some feline characteristics. However, if you have to pick out a difference, the former is probably the appearance of a large cat beast that has become a spirit, but the Philin people are harmless to humans and animals.
The house cat.
The boss quickly put all the side dishes and side dishes on the table, and then walked in with a soup pot mainly made of large lake snails and blood crabs. Yu Lian asked casually: "Is business going well these days?"
"It wasn't particularly good to begin with, but it's gotten worse recently." The owner of Filmerman showed a simple smile: "Fortunately, the house is his own, so he can always maintain it."
"Isn't there been a lot of construction recently?" Ruisi Qi said.
The film boss said: "There has been more construction, but the wages of shipyard workers have not increased! On the contrary, because a lot of workers from other places have come in, the income of local old workers has become less. Of course, there are fewer people who dare to come to restaurants.
But, I can’t sell the food in this small shop to the boss above."
Reese sighed: "No matter which country you are in, it has its own hardships!"
"To be precise, no matter which country you are in, there are similar hardships." Yu Liandao.
The film boss didn’t quite understand, but he probably thought Yu Lian’s lavish words sounded good, so he said: “Besides, wasn’t there a strike at the port some time ago? Many daily necessities and fresh fruits and vegetables cannot be brought in, and many restaurants and supermarkets have increased their prices.
Really, even though transportation has been restored now, it hasn’t come down yet.”
"Have you also raised the price?" Yu Lian said with a smile.
"I can't get a raise. I've been an old neighbor for many years, but I don't care if they poke me in the face." The boss said distressedly: "However, other restaurant owners think that I am quite unsociable. Luhuai's catering business
People from the conference have also come to talk to me several times.”
Yu Lian nodded, twitched his nose, and felt the aroma of some soup pots with a relaxed expression on his face, and sighed: "Just by the smell, I know that this is a delicacy that can make people happy. Boss, after the meal, let's get together
Just take a look."
The film boss still didn't quite understand what the other party meant, but as a veteran, he intuitively understood that this was a good thing, and of course he left with great gratitude.
Soon, this elegant small private room returned to silence, leaving only the aroma of delicious food.
There are many benefits to dining at this spot. On the one hand, you can enjoy the food more fully after you have been hungry for a long time. On the other hand, you want such a quiet place.
"You don't seem to be as famous as you thought." Roommate C laughed.
"This is a good thing. I finally have the leisure time to enjoy public privacy." Yu Lian sneered.
"Oh, my old classmate, you are really crazy. Look at your condescending attitude."
"It's just stating the facts."
All in all, the two of them are not hypocritical people after all, and they did not engage in sanctimonious official greetings like mature social people, and then greeted each other about who the father is, whether it is me or you, and other unnutritious things.
After the ethical gag, we started to feast.
C, an old classmate who was Reese's writing roommate, had always been the tonnage champion in their dormitory, and naturally also the champion in terms of food intake. However, after finishing the food, he still put down the tableware and looked at it with an expression of wonder as if appreciating the visual spectacle.
Yu Lian swept away the food for three people like a whirlwind.
Reese thinks he is also a hero who can drink a lot of wine and eat a lot of meat, but compared with the person in front of him, he seems to have degenerated into a petite little sissy. He feels that his pride in being the only one who can surpass the other person is undermined.
He was trampled and suddenly felt depressed.
"The person who was hungry and arguing with various alliance security personnel at the airport for three hours should be me, but not you, right? You weren't like this when you were in school!"
"After all, it's not the same as it was back then." Yu Lian wiped his mouth with a napkin and said in an old-fashioned way: "Think about those days! I can eat for five people at a time, but after reaching the sixth ring, theoretically I can rely on
Swallowing the essence of the sun and moon to maintain life. I have just reduced my share to three people. This is not to waste food, but also to let me remember that I am still a human being."
He was stunned, with a look of joy and sadness on his face, and moved his lips, but did not make a sound. His attitude finally became respectful, and he clearly shouted: "Master..."
Yu Lian seemed to shudder: There is already a sadly thick barrier between us.
How strange!
He slapped the table angrily: "Okay. I was the one who helped you sign when you were done with it. What do you want to put here now?"
"Hahaha, but I don't know who it is that I haven't contacted for a long time. I just randomly showed up in the group every half a month and didn't go online. I even skipped our union activities many times. You must not be either.
You know, our union has been merged, right?"
"I really don't know about this...ah, I obviously logged in properly."
"Ask Ying Si and Ye Zhixia to help you with your daily tasks? Do you think I don't know? I will send you a message after going online. Ying Si will reply with a smiley face, Ye Zhixia will reply with an emoticon, and Jefferson will reply with a goat head. We are early
You really figured out a pattern." Roommate C showed a sad expression, as if "Baby, Dad is very disappointed in you."
Yu Lian suddenly felt ashamed and elated at the same time. So, he really stood up with his head held high.
"When we were clearing up wasteland and mining together, you said that women would only affect the speed at which you draw your sword. But I never thought that in just two or three years, you would have fallen to the point where you even handed over your number.
The place of a woman.”
"Just tell me whether you are envious or not?"
"I'm so envious..." Ruisi let out a sad sigh: "Luo Ming has become the deputy county magistrate, married his blind date and even had a child. Luko was in Baiyi Ange
I am the section chief of the Logistics Coordination Department of Luo Company, and I have high salary and security, but I have nothing to do with the daughter of the president of their branch. I am the only one, running around every day, alone, empty and lonely."
"At the right time, you can find a Twi'lek beauty in a foreign starry sky and have an interracial love."
"Well, actually I prefer the beauties from Togruta. They are heroic and full of vitality. The beauties from ancient America and Asia are also good. I really want the legendary night elves... but unfortunately I still have nothing." Roommate C shook his head. This time
The desolation is sincere.
He closed the corners of his trembling mouth and put on a serious face: "Anyway, let's talk about something serious."
It seems like there are a lot of stories happening here!
Although Yu Lian wanted to take advantage of the victory, he still suppressed his growing bad taste and put on a serious face: "You just said, is there anything that I need to hand over personally? Or is it entrusted to you by the Space Fleet Headquarters?
Shipped?"
"The customer who placed the order is indeed the Space Fleet Command. As for the goods..." Reese paused, changed his serious tone, and said in a businessman's voice: "This time, we have twenty light wings on board.
Boats. Twelve of them were ordered by the richest people in the alliance. They are all famous rowing players and the kind who have the money to maintain a fleet of boats."
The implication is that twenty ships were bought by wealthy people in the alliance, and the remaining eight ships can be discussed.
How could Yu Lian not understand the other party's subtext? He then showed a clear smile: "Indeed, when a rich man sees new racing cars and rowing boats, he is just like a fat guy seeing a new paper-dark wife, and places an order.
His movements are always faster than the Empire’s Generalissimo’s Palace.”
"I always feel that you are mocking me." Reese said: "If I had a real wife in the real world, how could I still spend money on a paper wife."
"I think you are overthinking. A lot of fat guys will squeeze out the last bits of money from their real wives to support paper people." Yu Lian chuckled: "Anyway, after calculating the time, it should be Liuli.
I just led the team to the finals, so the rowing experts in the league may have placed an order, but I don’t know how much RN Shipyard earned this time.”
"The shipping fee alone is this amount. What do you think?" Reese opened his palm.
"Haha, if you enter the finals, you can sell twelve boats. If you win the championship, won't that increase tenfold?" Yu Lian was overjoyed. The results of this racing competition were much better than expected.
Reese resisted the urge to roll his eyes and said coolly: "...They have already won the championship, and they are less than twenty seconds away from breaking the racing record."
Yu Lian was startled for a moment, and then scratched his cheek in embarrassment. Only then did he suddenly remember that the finals of the rowing group of the racing conference should have started three days ago, and the champion should have been born long ago.
Already.
But at that time, the testing of the Fuxi-class dreadnoughts was reaching its most critical moment, and even though Yu Lian was as careless as he was, he put all his energy and attention on it.
Liuli could have called her to remind her. But she didn't. She probably didn't want to disturb her work. She was such a considerate girl. However, the more considerate she was, the more guilty Yu Lian felt.
