Since someone was treating him to a drink, Li Du decided to treat him to dinner.
Although it was still early, he had already left home. He had only eaten two hamburgers on the long journey from Phoenix to Tucson. He was hungry now.
"Who knows what specialties there are? Tucson's local specialties? My treat, guys, let's go have a good time! "Li Du said.
Hearing that someone was treating them to dinner, the treasure hunters were excited.
"Let's go to the Lavender Hotel. The buffet there is great. It costs 150 dollars per person. I've been wanting to try it for a long time."
"Big Li, if you want something special, I say we should go to MS Street. Any restaurant there will not disappoint you."
"Let's go to the Salt Lake Restaurant. The salt baked beef there is the best I've ever tasted …"
"Shut up, what kind of special is that?" Lu Guan pushed the people on both sides and walked out. "Boss, come with me. This place should be okay."
"What's okay?" Reeves asked.
Lu Guan said, "The restaurants are still okay. Let's go. This is the real specialty of Tucson. Most people don't know about it!"
The group took a taxi. Seven or eight taxis drove out of the city, and each car was filled to the brim.
Driving out of Tucson, the car entered the desert. Someone in the car shouted, "Mond Conrad, you b * stard, are we going to Mexico for dinner?"
Lu Guan said impatiently, "Shut up, it's not far!"
It was indeed very close. The car drove another two or three kilometers and stopped in front of a village a few minutes later.
When Li Du got out of the car, he looked into the village. It was an ordinary small village on the edge of the desert. There seemed to be a lot of mirrors at the entrance of the village. The silver light was so dazzling that it hurt his eyes.
"Come with me." Lu Guan waved. "I'll take you to eat something fun!"
His goal was the small building at the entrance of the village. As he approached, Li Du found that there were indeed many mirrors outside the building, and they formed two mirror walls.
The two mirror walls were tall and short. The tall one was three meters high and was made up of many small mirrors. The short mirror wall was less than two meters high and had many small mirrors on it.
Each side of the small mirrors had an area of 100 square centimeters. They were curved, and when put together, the curvature was even greater, forming a curved wall.
The tall mirror-like wall faced the sun, while the short mirror-like wall was opposite it. There were iron racks on top of the mirror-like wall, on which were hung rows of roasted chicken, beef, mutton and so on. From time to time, someone would come and turn over the iron racks on the short mirror-like wall.
Li Du sized it up. The light was dazzling. The sunlight shone on the high mirror wall, and because the mirror wall was curved, it could gather sunlight, similar to a magnifying glass.
The temperature of the accumulated sunlight was definitely very high. Judging by the fat that was rising from the beef and mutton, the roast chicken was roasted to a reddish-yellow color. The color was uniform, unlike roasting with fire.
Seeing this barbecue method, Li Du laughed and said, "Hey, this is a little interesting."
"Desert Mirror Wall Barbecue, this is the specialty of Tucson," Lu Guan said proudly.
Olly asked in surprise, "Why haven't I heard of it before? There's such a thing? "
Lu Guan said, "It wasn't easy for me to find it on the Internet. The barbecue here is delicious. Everyone who has eaten here is full of praise."
There was only barbecue and home-brewed beer here, just like the wild chaos in Li Du's hometown. The outside of the small building was covered with a shade, and everyone sat outside eating and drinking beer.
It was not mealtime, but there were already many diners in the shade.
Lu Guan said, "This place is open in the afternoon, from 11 o 'clock to 7: 30 p.m. They rely on the sun to barbecue. How about it? Haven't you seen it in other places?"
Dickens laughed, "This job can only be done in the desert of Tucson. If it was in Flagstaff, it would definitely go bankrupt!"
Half of the year in Flagstaff was cloudy and rainy. The temperature was lower than other big cities in Arizona, but it was also because of this that the place was more livable.
Li Du and his group were considered big customers. The boss cleared out half of the shade for them, and they sat down, chatting and laughing.
After Li Du entered the shade, someone waved at him and smiled. "Hi, Mr. Li, what a coincidence."
Li Du saw that it was indeed a coincidence. He had met Bravo Tompsey, the president of the Audubon Society, who had sold the book Birds of America to him at a high price.
Both sides shook hands enthusiastically, and Li Du asked, "Aren't you in Los Angeles? Are you on a business trip to Tucson? "
Bravo said, "Yes, I came to Tucson to attend a meeting hosted by the West Coast Animal and Bird Protection Association, and came here to eat. This is very environmentally friendly food."
It was indeed environmentally friendly, using the sun to barbecue without any pollution. It was 100% natural.
When Li Du was in primary school, there was a solar stove promotion craze in his hometown. The government was personally responsible for the promotion, but in the end, it was not successful. It was said that many people burned themselves cooking with that thing …
After a brief chat, Li Du returned to the treasure hunters.
A large glass of cold beer was immediately served to him. The treasure hunters changed their attitude when they faced Princeps and raised their glasses enthusiastically. "Drink, drink, Big Li, let's drink together!"
It was very hot here. Even though it was already five o 'clock in the afternoon, the sun was still burning the earth like a fireball. Although this was the edge of the desert, the temperature was still very high.
Li Du raised his head and took a big gulp of cold beer. His whole body was cold and comfortable.
All kinds of barbecued meat were then served, including beef, mutton, chicken, and turkey, as well as hamburgers, sandwiches, and so on.
The advantage of the mirror-like barbecue was that the temperature of the sun was the same, so the meat was evenly heated and would not be burnt.
Compared with charcoal, this kind of barbecue perfectly retained the flavor of the meat, without the smell of charcoal, and could taste the original flavor of the meat.
Li Du picked up a roast chicken, tore off a drumstick, and handed the rest to Godzilla. Godzilla took off his shirt, roasted the chicken in one hand, and held a large glass of beer in the other.
"Big Li, any news about the auction?" someone asked.
Li Du nodded and said, "You guys know, I make money from this, not from information."
Turis smiled and said, "We have to rely on information channels. F * ck, this time there is a Tiger Tank storage unit. I don't know if we can get it. This thing shouldn't be hidden very well, right?"
"You better pray that it is hidden well. Otherwise, everyone will see it, and even if you get it, you won't make much money."
Li Du, who was happily eating the barbecue, was stunned when he heard this. He asked, "Everyone knows about the Tiger Tank storage unit?"
"Yes," Dickens said. "This should be spread by the storage company to deliberately raise the price of storage units."
Li Du looked at Lu Guan with a murderous gaze. Lu Guan smiled and said, "Boss, is the barbecue delicious? It took me a lot of effort to find this place! "
