I Became the Richest Man with a Monthly Salary of 20,000

"Mr. Lu Ruian, we're here."

After finding a place to park the car, Xia Liang also took Lu Ruian to the big leather courtyard.

"This..."

Standing in front of the street, Lu Ruian looked at the snack street in front of him with an unbelievable face. He had seen the scene of crowds of people before, but basically there would be such a scene when there was a large parade in Eagle Country.

But now there is such a scene in a snack street, which makes him feel incredible.

Everyone's face is full of smiles, pedestrians are shoulder to shoulder, some children ride on their father's shoulders, holding a meat bun in their hands, tearing off a piece and feeding it to their father's mouth...

There are many shops around, and each shop has food that Lu Ruian has never seen before. Even from a long distance, Lu Ruian seems to be able to smell the fragrance of these delicacies.

Everything is so harmonious that Lu Ruian can't believe that the scene in front of him will appear in Dragon Country. He has been to so many countries and has never seen such a scene.

"Mr. Lu Ruian, this is our famous snack street Dapiyuan in Qingyun. You can basically find all the delicacies in Qingyun here."

Looking at the shocked little foreigner, Xia Liang said with a smile.

"Mr. Xia Liang, are you saying that this street is full of delicacies?"

Lu Ruian still couldn't believe it, because he couldn't see the end of the street at a glance.

He didn't believe that such a street was full of delicacies. After all, he had boasted before that he would try all the delicacies in Longguo in three days, but now looking at this street, he was stunned.

Even if he was a pig, it was impossible to eat all the delicacies in the whole street in three days.

"Mr. Lu Ruian, everyone has different tastes, so the definition of delicacies is also different. Whether it is a delicacy or not, you still need to taste it yourself to know."

Xia Liang didn't explain too much. Even if he explained, the other party would not believe it. Only when he ate it in his mouth could he know it.

"Then what should we eat first?"

Lu Ruian looked at the street in a daze. Before coming here, he was afraid that the delicacies in Longguo would not be enough for him to eat for three days, but now a food street appeared in front of him. Looking at the shops around, he was actually a little unable to choose.

"Let's go try the Shuipen mutton first."

Xia Liang looked around and saw that many shops were crowded, but the Shuipen mutton shop had fewer people.

It's not that Shuipen mutton is not attractive, but it's not even ten o'clock yet, and many people haven't digested their breakfast yet, so they naturally won't eat it.

Lu Ruian nodded blankly and followed Xia Liang to a Shuipen mutton shop.

Although there were fewer people in the shop than in other places, it was still a bit crowded. The two of them waited in line for half an hour before they finally got a table.

"Mr. Lu Ruian, Shuipen mutton is a dish with mutton belly as the main ingredient. It evolved from the "Yanglu" of the Shang and Zhou dynasties. It was called Yangroulu in the Qin and Han dynasties, and was also called Shanzhuyang in the Tang and Song dynasties."

"The Shuipen mutton in Dali, Pucheng and Chengcheng counties is the most famous. Among them, the Shuipen mutton in Chengcheng is the most authentic and has the longest history. It was selected into the fifth batch of intangible cultural heritage list in January 2016."

"The name of Shuipen mutton is because many vendors put mutton on the chopping board, but there is not enough space, so they can only put it in the basin. When the guests come and see the mutton, they cut it on the spot and cook it, so Shuipen mutton is naturally formed."

"..."

While sitting at the table waiting, Xia Liang also began to explain the history of Shuipen mutton to Lu Ruian.

Hearing that it is an intangible cultural heritage, Lu Ruian became curious and looked at the guests at the next table. The fragrance coming over made him roll his Adam's apple again and swallow his saliva.

After a while, the waiter in the store placed two portions of water basin mutton in front of the two people.

"Mr. Xia Liang, why is there pizza, and this pizza seems a little different."

Looking at the food in front of him, Lu Ruian asked curiously.

Xia Liang looked at it and was a little speechless. That was not pizza, but two sesame cakes.

"Mr. Lu Ruian, this is not pizza, but sesame cakes. Speaking of which, pizza in your foreign countries evolved from sesame cakes."

"To eat water basin mutton, you need to pair it with two crescent sesame cakes. One is to sandwich the fat and lean mutton in the crescent sesame cake, and the other can be soaked in mutton soup."

"Add coriander, pickled garlic, pickled mustard or hot sauce. The oil-splashed chili sauce needs to be splashed with mutton fat..."

As Xia Liang said, he also demonstrated how to eat it for Lu Ruian. For someone who has been in Chang'an for several years, everything is so smooth.

"Mr. Lu Ruian, try it."

Xia Liang handed the crescent cake with mutton in his hand to Lu Ruian, who took it and ate it without hesitation.

"Hmm? This taste..."

After taking a bite of the crescent cake, Lu Ruian was shocked.

The crescent cake was crispy and delicious, and the wheat aroma and the taste of mutton gave him a brand new experience. He felt a bubbling feeling in his mouth.

In addition, the side dishes that Xia Liang had just put into the crescent cake, especially the chili, greatly enhanced the taste of the mutton.

"How does it taste?"

Xia Liang asked with a smile.

"Mr. Xia Liang, this tastes so good!"

Lu Ruian was excited, as if he wanted to swallow his tongue.

"Try another sip of soup."

Lu Ruian nodded, took another sip of soup, and immediately screamed with pleasure, causing many people around him to look over in surprise.

"Mr. Xia Liang, this mutton is fat but not greasy, and even the soup is so delicious, especially when paired with this crescent moon cake. It's better than what I've eaten in five-star restaurants before."

Lu Ruian felt unbelievable in his heart. If a food with this kind of taste were at least a signature dish of a five-star restaurant abroad, it would also be horrifyingly expensive.

But in Long Country, you can eat it casually in roadside shops, and it's very cheap. At least he had just seen the price and felt that the price was completely unworthy of such delicious food.

"Mr. Lu Ruian, the taste of each water basin mutton restaurant is also different. There is no fixed taste. Just this one dish may have dozens or even hundreds of flavors."

Xia Liang smiled.

In the Dragon Kingdom, the same delicacies will have all kinds of strange flavors, and different flavors will attract different customers. This is the basis for every vendor to gain a foothold.

“One dish has dozens of flavors?”

Lu Ruian was surprised. He came here to taste different delicacies, but now he found that three days might not be enough for him to eat all the flavors of water basin mutton.

With thousands of years of cultural heritage, Dragon Kingdom ranks second when it comes to controlling taste buds. Absolutely no one dares to say it is first.

The American country where the little foreigner lives only has a history of one or two hundred years, so it is natural that he cannot understand the thousands of years of cultural evolution of the Dragon Kingdom.
