Chapter 47 Gathering in all directions
Qi Zhongliu has 200 yuan of pocket money every month.
Students in Taipei University hire their classmates to help with their homework for just a few dollars.
Chen Qiuzhong gave dozens of dollars to each other in a love letter.
There is news that Qin Yi is willing to spend 500 yuan to buy the goddess.
And he can really take out so much money at any time.
Gu Feixue casually spent three hundred yuan just to make two toys that currently only existed on drawings.
Chu Tianshu was slightly unbalanced mentally.
For an ordinary family of six, a month of good food and drink, including improving the food for the children, only costs more than 60 cents and less than 70 cents.
The salary level for weapons-making workers in a steel factory should be above average.
But that’s just over one dollar and forty-five cents a month.
Sure enough, no matter which world, the money units of ordinary people and the money units of powerful people are different.
Chu Tianshu smiled at Gu Feixue and Xie Ningzi.
For some reason, Gu Feixue always felt that this smile had some inexplicable meaning.
"Two ladies." Chu Tianshu accepted the money and his attitude became much better: "It takes a certain amount of time to make something."
"So what you're saying is that we still need you to buy food for us today?" Gu Feixue's interest was entirely in skateboards and roller skates. He was not particularly interested in food at the moment, or rather all the time.
"Of course, if you two ladies are not too tired, you can follow me for a walk."
"Then let's take a walk." Gu Feixue said.
Of course, Chu Tianshu had no reason to disagree with the sponsor's small request.
"Let's go find a restaurant or teahouse first and ask for news." Chu Tianshu arranged this.
"Okay." Gu Feixue nodded.
"Then let's go." Xie Ningzi was helpless.
The three of them got into the car, and Gu Feixue only told the driver: "Go to the most famous restaurant nearby."
Chu Tianshu said quickly: "Go to a restaurant with a lower average price and lower style, but has a good reputation among ordinary people."
The driver didn't even look at Chu Tianshu.
Gu Feixue looked at Chu Tianshu.
Chu Tianshu sneered: "It's up to Miss Gu to talk about this."
"Is this also your experience?"
"That's right."
"Oh." Gu Feixue nodded and said to the driver, "Just follow what he said."
"Yes." The driver then drove to a restaurant that he knew well and met the standards.
Gathering from all directions.
In the Miyagi District, the core of Tianjing City, where land is at a premium, there is a restaurant that is not particularly famous.
Because it's not up to par.
However, Jubafang is very famous in the surrounding area.
Because there is a big vat at the door of Jubafang all year round. Every morning in the big vat, there will be a pot full of thick millet porridge cooked with rice oil.
This millet porridge is provided for free. No matter whether you are gathering for dinner or not, regardless of your status, as long as you are willing, you can have a sip of porridge.
There is only one requirement, that is, you need to bring your own bowl to drink porridge.
If you don’t have a bowl, it doesn’t matter. You can rent it at the Jubafang counter, and it only costs a penny to rent one.
This large vat existed when Jubafang opened its store, more than sixty years ago.
In the past sixty years, the millet porridge in this big vat at the entrance of Jubafang has never stopped.
Naturally, Jubafang’s business has never stopped.
Because of this large vat, Jubafang has a good reputation among the surrounding people, and it is the first choice place for ordinary people to have banquets, parties, and meat dishes.
But because of this, the customer class of Jubafang is restricted by this big vat.
Follow the word-of-mouth and inclusive approach, which means taking the lower-class route.
As a result, Jubafang has become an outright restaurant with small profits but quick turnover.
Here, money can indeed be spent down to the penny.
There is a way to spend a penny in a way, and even a penny can be spent in a way.
This simple profit-making route is not liked by high-rollers who spend a lot of money.
But there is also a big advantage here.
That means there is a huge flow of people.
This large vat, which has stood for more than sixty years, is a talisman and the best advertisement.
This vat is still there, and regular customers of Jubafang will always be just customers of Jubafang.
Three religions and nine streams gathered one after another.
When Chu Tianshu and the others arrived at Jubafang, there was a customer at the door who bought a glass of beer, brought a rented bowl, and used a long-handled wooden spoon to scoop out millet porridge from the large vat at the door.
Chu Tianshu curiously leaned over to take a look.
That big porridge vat, now only a thin layer of porridge bottom is left at the bottom of the vat.
The drinker who was ladling porridge saw Chu Tianshu coming over, so he smiled at him: "Brother, you're late, today's porridge is gone."
"How does this porridge taste?" Chu Tianshu chuckled, but he was not disappointed because he did not drink the most famous millet porridge in Jubafang.
"That must be good." The drinker took a sip of the condensed millet porridge in the bowl: "After all, I have been cooking porridge for so many years, so I must have put some effort into it."
"Then I'm really curious. I'll try it early tomorrow if I have time."
The drinker licked his lips: "There's actually no need to come all the way here."
"As for millet porridge, no matter how delicious it is, it's just millet porridge with a little sweetness, and there's nothing fancy about it."
"Brother, can you tell that I am a foreigner?" Chu Tianshu was surprised: "How do you know that I came all the way here to drink this famous millet porridge?"
The drinker was stunned for a moment, then said calmly: "I've seen people like you a lot, and I knew from a quick glance that you must be a foreigner, and you've only been in Tianjing not long ago."
The drinker holds a wooden spoon in one hand and millet porridge in the other. There is absolutely no intention of showing off in his words. The glass of beer placed on the table next to the vat in his hand shows an air of coolness and indifference.
"Brother is really awesome." Chu Tianshu admired him: "Brother, I have only been in Tianjing for two days."
"Look, let me tell you." The drinker held his head high and said in a calm tone: "Why did you come to Tianjing?"
"I came to Tianjing to join my relatives." Chu Tianshu sighed: "It's just that I was unlucky and didn't meet any relatives, so I had to find a hotel to live in. And because I had a little money, I thought about eating well in Tianjing.
Eat and compensate yourself."
"Is that so?" The drinker nodded: "Then you really should eat more delicious food to replenish your body."
"Yeah." Chu Tianshu giggled: "I think so too."
"But brother, do you know any delicious restaurants nearby?" Chu Tianshu asked: "I like to eat fresh and sweet things."
"I'm not sure about this...I usually don't care much about these foods...after all, I don't have much time."
And there is no money either.
"But if you want to ask, I can take you to Jubafang to ask some old friends who are more knowledgeable about eating."
"Brother, do you have such a wide range of friends?"
