The one-day and two-night journey made the driver's eyes red. It was already the morning of the third day when they arrived at Huxiang.
Lai Wen was also stiff in the car. Even if the Mercedes-Benz was so comfortable, sitting for 30 hours was definitely unbearable.
On the contrary, Xu Yun was well-rested during the journey. Not only did he recover his physical strength, but he also recovered his energy. It could be said that he was full of spirit. He was much more energetic than when he just returned from Africa.
"It's good to be young." When Lai Wen saw Xu Yun's state, he couldn't help but feel helpless about his ruined body.
Alcohol, women, avarice, and temper made Lai Wen's body collapse early, so he couldn't withstand such a long period of turbulence and suffering.
For Xu Yun, it was time to enjoy rest and recuperation, but for Lai Wen, it was a kind of torture.
After arriving at Xianghu, there was still more than 30 kilometers to Lai Wen's villa. He signaled the driver not to go home first. "Take us to the rice noodle shop in Yuhua District first. You know the place."
The driver was also energized when he heard that. The rice noodle in that shop was very delicious. Now that he was hungry, he really needed to eat something.
Lai Wen was a native of Huxiang, so he loved rice noodle very much. Some people said that Huxiang people's morning started with a bowl of rice noodle. This was really true.
There were all kinds of rice noodle shops in the morning here!
Xianghu rice noodle was a traditional Han snack in Xianghu. It was one of the favorite foods of the locals.
"Huxiang people like rice noodle, especially flat noodle, because flat noodle has an advantage over round noodle in that it's easier to add flavor. The rice noodle itself has no flavor. It's all seasoned by the soup. So the soup is the key to a bowl of rice noodle. "Lai Wen was very emotional when talking about rice noodle. When he was poor, he couldn't even afford a bowl of rice noodle.
Now that he came to Xianghu, the first thing he wanted to do was to treat Xu Yun to a bowl of authentic rice noodle.
And he thought the most authentic rice noodle shop in Yuhua District was the one in his opinion. The soup in that shop was definitely delicious.
Xu Yun: "Boss Lai is very knowledgeable about rice noodle."
"Yes, I have special feelings for rice noodle." Lai Wen: "If it wasn't for a bowl of rice noodle back then, I might have starved to death."
Xu Yun didn't answer.
Lai Wen continued talking about the rice noodles, "Do you know that rice noodles are not only important for the soup, but also for the size! We Huxiang people call the side dish that we put in the rice noodles as Yazi. There are two kinds of Yazi and Stir-Fried Yazi. Yazi means that the rice noodles are prepared in advance. After the rice noodles are cooked, the rice noodles are directly covered with the prepared rice noodles. Stir-Fry is a side dish that is cooked in a small pot at the last minute when the noodles are added. This way, the stir-fry will be fresh and taste better. "
"It seems that even a bowl of rice vermicelli requires a lot of attention," Xu Yun said.
"Of course." Lai Wen nodded. "Generally, we usually eat shredded meat, hot and sour, crispy pepper, sauces, and mixed sauces. A bowl of rice noodles in Xianghu Lake was two ounces, which was the standard configuration. If you want more powder or more sizes, you have to tell the store owner that you want to choose lightly or heavily, or heavy and light when you buy the powder. "
Xu Yun understood. "Lighter means less powder, and heavy means more powder?"
"That's right." Lai Wen smiled. "Understanding people are understanding people. Some muddle-headed people don't understand what I'm saying at all."
As they spoke, they had already arrived at the rice noodles shop in Yuhua District.
At this time, many people were already eating breakfast.
When Xu Yun and the rest got out of the car and came to the shop, there were no more seats.
Lai Wen gave the driver a look. The driver immediately took out 10,000 yuan from his bag and shouted arrogantly in the local language, "Are you done eating? If you are done, take a bill and leave! Our boss is in a good mood now. If he is in a bad mood later, you won't have this opportunity. "
Those who had to go out so early and still ate outside were usually people who worked hard and had a hard time earning money.
Therefore, when they heard this, they quickly ate a few mouthfuls, got up, asked the driver for money, and left.
Soon, the shop was empty.
The owner of the rice noodles shop looked at the owner of the Mercedes-Benz and felt his hair stand on end. He didn't know how he had offended him.
"Boss, don't worry. I'm not here to cause trouble." Lai Wen smiled and motioned for the shop owner to clear a table.
The shop owner hurriedly did as he was told.
Lai Wen gave the driver a look again. The driver took out another 10,000 yuan from his bag and handed it to the shop owner.
"Bring me your best. I want to try everything." Lai Wen said, "Do it well. This money is all yours. I won't let you lose money."
Hearing this, the shop owner nodded vigorously and quickly served the rice noodles that he was good at.
…
The breakfast made Lai Wen feel emotional. He said that this was some kind of intangible cultural heritage.
The driver was full and energetic. He followed Lai Wen and got a cigarette.
The three of them smoked and returned to the car. Lai Wen was also more energetic. "Xu Yun, Xianghu is not as developed as Beijing. Are you sure that if you follow me, you won't be tempted by the Zhong family?"
"Boss Lai, since I came with you, I don't plan to go to the Zhong family." Xu Yun: "My words are always a nail in the nail."
Lai Wen clapped his hands. "Good! That's exactly what I want! "
"If Boss Lai still doesn't believe me, then I will leave now. Just pretend that I didn't follow you. " Xu Yun said again, "Even so, I won't work for the Zhong family. I said that I don't want to have anything to do with the past."
"Don't, don't, don't. I don't mean to doubt you." Lai Wen said, "Look at you. Young people shouldn't be so impulsive."
Xu Yun didn't say anything.
"Don't you want to see my collection? Come home with me now. I will take you to see my collection." Lai Wen smiled and changed the topic. Xu Yun also showed his loyalty.
The two of them took what they wanted. The atmosphere in the car was happy.
"Boss Lai, I heard that our Huxiang also opened a very powerful nightclub. The girls there are very good." The driver smiled and brought up the topic. He seemed to be hoping that the boss would invite him once.
Lai Wen didn't seem to be interested at all. "Do you want me to die early? What if I don't take care of my body? "
The driver was confused. Was this what Boss Lai would say?
It wasn't the same person at all!
Lai Wen's words also made Xu Yun very surprised. He wasn't this kind of person in Yanjing. After coming back, he actually became uninterested in women?
This was obviously unscientific.
Lai Wen looked at the curious Xu Yun. "It's your behavior that affected me. I have been thinking about this problem on the way. I really should take good care of my body."
Xu Yun smiled. "Yes, it is indeed so."
"Xu Yun, we will be a family in the future." Lai Wen said affectionately, "I have a lot of things to learn from you as a brother. You must help me more."
Xu Yun knew what he was thinking, but it wasn't convenient to expose him. He could only agree. "Boss Lai, you can rest assured."
"Why are you still calling me boss? If you really treat me as a family, call me brother." Lai Wen said, "Then I can feel at ease."
Xu Yun smiled in his heart. This guy really made him worry less. Originally, these things needed Xu Yun to get close to him. He didn't expect him to get close to him now.
"Brother Lai." Xu Yun didn't stay silent this time.
Lai Wen heard and smiled. "Hahaha, good, good! Good brother! In the future, half of my world will be yours! "
