Chapter 629
"Mr. Xia Liang, this is the store."
Lu Ruian came to the door of the shop, looked at Xia Liang and smiled.
At this time, the store was very deserted, with only one or two people still in the store.
Xia Liang also looked at this shop. It was indeed a little deserted at this time, because it was a soup dumpling shop, and it was a century-old shop.
The reason why it seemed deserted was because all the soup dumplings had been sold out today.
"Mr. Lurian, I think you should find another restaurant. This one..."
Xia Liang was about to explain, but Lu Ruian interrupted him.
"No, this is the place."
After saying that, Lurian strode towards the inside.
Naturally, he couldn't listen to Xia Liang's persuasion. In his opinion, Xia Liang had a guilty conscience and knew that this was a store with a bad taste, so he didn't want him to come in.
"I'm just telling you, how can all the food on a street be delicious? This store is so deserted. The locals must know that it doesn't taste good, so they don't come here."
For a moment, Lurian became confident again, thinking that he had mastered the truth again.
Xia Liang shook his head helplessly and followed. The little foreigner refused to listen and insisted on going in because he didn't speak Chinese.
As soon as he entered the store, Xia Liang saw the little foreigner communicating with the clerk, but the clerk looked confused and they couldn't understand English.
This made the little foreigner a little anxious. Fortunately, when he saw Xia Liang coming in, he hurried over.
"Mr. Xia Liang, please translate for me. I want to buy food from their store."
Lurian said.
Xia Liang nodded, and then expressed what Lu Ruian meant.
"Sir, I'm really sorry. Today's soup dumplings have been sold out. Please come back tomorrow."
After listening to Xia Liang's words, the clerk said politely.
"Mr. Lurian, he said that the food in the store has been sold out, so he can only come early tomorrow."
Xia Liang looked at Lu Ruian and said.
"Sold out?"
Lurian frowned and looked at the table not far away, where a family of four was eating something.
"Mr. Xia Liang, didn't you say it's all sold out? Why are they still eating?"
Lu Ruian snorted coldly. In his opinion, Xia Liang was bullying him because he didn't know Chinese, so he lied to him.
After all, he finally found a store that might not taste very good. For the sake of his country's reputation, the other party would definitely not let him get what he wanted.
"Mr. Lurian, what I said is true. The food in the store has been sold out. As for them, it is the last portion."
Xia Liang was also a little speechless. This little foreigner didn't listen to him at all and always had special ideas.
"I don't believe it, Mr. Xia Liang. I hired you to be my tour guide, and I hope you won't deceive me when translating."
"Or is it that the things in their store are only sold to you people from the Dragon Kingdom, not us people from other countries?"
"I tell you, this is discrimination. If you don't give me food today, I will go to the embassy to report you..."
Lu Ruian's crazy bombardment made Xia Liang feel a little unhappy. This little foreigner changed his face too fast. He seemed to believe him just now, but now he turned against him.
I'm just here to be your tour guide, not to be upset.
And it seems like I really lied to you. Didn’t I just say you can come back tomorrow?
"Gentlemen, do you want to eat the soup-filled buns from this restaurant?"
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded. Xia Liang turned around and saw the eldest brother of a family of four who had just been sitting in the seat, looking at them in fluent English.
"Sir, I really want to eat the food from this restaurant, but my tour guide doesn't seem to want me to."
Lu Ruian said and gave Xia Liang a cold look.
"Uh... this gentleman, he didn't lie to you. The soup dumplings in the store have indeed been sold out."
The eldest brother looked at Xia Liang and said helplessly.
"Huh? Is it really sold out?"
Hearing this, Lu Ruian looked surprised, but soon frowned, "You are all from the Dragon Kingdom, you must have joined forces to deceive me."
These words made the elder brother a little speechless. This is the first time for everyone to meet. Is it necessary to join forces to lie to you?
Besides, isn’t it just a dumpling filled with soup, right?
"Sir, let's do this. Don't you want to eat the food from this store? If you don't mind, we just have some left here, you can try it."
The eldest brother pointed to the few soup dumplings left on his family's table and said.
Lurian frowned and looked at the soup dumplings.
He thought Xia Liang lied to him because he didn't want him to find out the bad things about Long Guo, so he insisted on trying the food in this deserted restaurant.
But now this big brother is willing to give up his food and ask him to taste it, which makes Lu Ruian have a bad feeling in his heart.
Did Mr. Xia Liang really not deceive him just now?
"Mr. Lu Ruian, since this big brother has said so, then you should try it, lest you go back and say that our Dragon Kingdom bullies you."
Xia Liang's tone was also a little colder. Little foreigners are indeed ignorant wolves. One moment they were calling you brothers, but the next moment they were going to the embassy to sue you...
"Then I'm welcome. As for the money, I'll give it to you."
Lurian hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement, and then sat in the eldest brother's seat.
Looking at the crystal clear buns in front of him, Lu Ruian's eyes were also a little curious. He had never seen this kind of food before.
The ingredients of the soup dumplings are very exquisite and the production is also very delicate.
The skin is made of fine flour and hot noodles, and the rib meat is used as the filling. The filling is made with fresh bone marrow soup, and then matched with more than ten kinds of high-quality condiments.
Especially the soup dumplings of this century-old store have the characteristics of thin skin, large filling, fresh meat, delicious taste, like a lantern when lifted up, like a chrysanthemum when put down, fresh and fragrant without being greasy.
As Lu Ruian sat down, many people gathered around him, basically all the store clerks, who were attracted by Lu Ruian's quarrel just now.
"What's wrong with this foreigner? Why did he snatch our customers' soup dumplings? Are foreign countries so poor that they come to our Longguo to steal food?"
"It seems that he wanted to eat our soup dumplings, but we had sold them out, so he was not happy, and the customer gave up his soup dumplings."
"Interesting, foreigners are just useless. It's just soup dumplings. Wouldn't it be better if he came earlier tomorrow? He still snatched the customers' food."
"..."
The shop assistants started to discuss. They were not afraid that Lu Ruian would hear it, because he didn't understand Chinese anyway.
Lu Ruian was sitting at his seat at this time, looking at the soup dumplings in front of him, and was in a dilemma for a while.
After waiting for a few seconds, Lu Ruian suddenly looked at Xia Liang with a hint of embarrassment on his face.
"Mr. Xia Liang, how do you eat this?"
