After walking around the street, Zhou Binglin had to admit that this place was really lively.

But what surprised him was that the people coming and going most on the streets were from Central Plains.

After all, the people of Beiyang dress differently from them, so they are easy to recognize.

As I was walking around, I suddenly saw a large cart of fruits being sold on the street, half of which were nectarines and the other half were cherries.

These fruits look beautiful in color and delicious at first glance.

Zhou Binglin was surprised. He didn't expect that there would be such fresh fruits in Beiyang.

But when he thought about the fruit wine he was going to buy, he slapped his forehead helplessly, feeling really stupid.

If there are no fruits here, where does the fruit wine come from?

He quickly stepped forward and asked, "How much is this fruit?"

"Cherries and nectarines are four cents a pound."

Zhou Binglin nodded, "Give me one pound of each fruit."

After the fruits were weighed, he asked one of the servants to pay for them, and he started eating a bright red cherry.

His eyes lit up as he ate the wine. The jar of wine he bought last time had the faint fragrance of this fruit. It turned out that this was cherry.

It’s really delicious.

He ate a few quickly and passed them to the two servants, "You eat too."

The two servants were overjoyed. Their master was kind to them and they were used to going out with him. When they were outside, they could get whatever their master ate.

Although I'm used to it, I still feel happy.

Zhou Binglin picked up a nectarine, wiped it, and took a bite. The nectarine was crisp and sweet. He was stunned for a moment.

This peach... is delicious! In his opinion, it is even more delicious than the cherry just now!

The two servants couldn't help praising the cherries as soon as they ate them.

"Master, this fruit is so sweet! Everyone says that Beiyang is a barren land, but I never thought that such sweet fruit could be grown!"

"Yes."

The master and his two servants ate fruit and continued strolling.

After walking for a while and not seeing any hotpot or barbecue restaurants, Zhou Binglin became a little anxious and stopped a man to ask.

"Mr. Strong, may I ask if you know where the barbecue restaurant and the hot pot restaurant are?"

The man's frown instantly relaxed and he couldn't help laughing, "Don't even think about eating barbecue and hot pot at this time. It's not your turn."

"Ah? What do you mean?"

"Boss Chu's barbecue restaurant, hot pot restaurant and restaurant have long queues every day during this period. Now is dinner time, and there are a lot of people."

Zhou Binglin swallowed.

"If you want to eat, just find a small shop and try some of our local specialties, or some beef noodles or something."

But Zhou Binglin still didn't give up, "Brave man, you better tell us where the address is, so we can go and take a look."

"also."

The layout of Beiyang City is not complicated, with only two main streets passing through. Soon, they found out the location of the barbecue restaurant and the hot pot restaurant.

The master and his servants rushed over immediately.

At first they didn't believe what the man said, but when they got to the barbecue restaurant and saw the long line that almost reached the end of the street, they were stunned.

"Master, why are there so many people here? How delicious is this barbecue? This...this..."

The two servants were shocked. They had never seen a store with such a long queue.

It's already a big deal to have people queuing outside the store.

Zhou Binglin calmed himself down and said, "Let's go to the hot pot restaurant and have a look."

Several people walked towards the hot pot restaurant in a heroic and confident manner.

As a result, there were almost as many people outside the hot pot restaurant as outside the barbecue restaurant.

The master and his servant were dumbfounded.

They didn't know what to do for a moment. Following this trend, the Chu family's restaurant would probably be crowded.

"Master, where are we going this time?"

Zhou Binglin looked around the hot pot restaurant and found a group of people gathered not far away on the street, so he walked over with two servants.

When I got closer, I found that there were several stalls here. Grandpa Lin was selling cold noodles with two helpers. About ten meters away, Zhuzi was selling sour plum soup and lemonade with an helper. The two stalls were relatively close to each other, and farther away from them was a fried potato stall.

Zhou Binglin hesitated for only a moment before ordering two servants to queue up to buy lemonade, sour plum soup and fried potatoes, while he himself queued at the cold noodle stall.

There aren't a lot of people here, so queue up and see if you can buy one.

With the help of his helpers, Grandpa Lin brought back a lot more cold noodles. He sold out the whole batch for almost an hour in the evening, and half of the cold noodles were still left.

Zhou Binglin waited in line for half an hour and finally saw what the cold noodles looked like.

He had waited in line for so long, he wanted to wait there for nothing, so he ordered six bowls directly.

Grandpa Lin glanced at him before mixing the noodles for him.

Zhou Binglin asked him to mix two bowls together into one.

Grandpa Lin did as he was told.

Soon, after paying the silver, Zhou Binglin walked out of the crowd carrying three bowls of cold noodles.

He came to Zhuzi's stall, where the servants who were queuing were almost able to buy their goods.

He just waited by the side.

When it was finally the servant's turn, Zhou Binglin said directly, "Buy three bowls of each drink."

The servant did as he was told.

Soon, the two of them went to find another servant with cold noodles, lemonade and sour plum soup.

They're already bombing him over there.

The fried potato stall here is run by two brothers, Abei and Atu. Their family has a good relationship with the Chu family. Now that the potato harvest is good, he discussed with the Chu family and learned how to fry potatoes from them. He will split the daily profit with them 50-50.

The Chu family naturally agreed.

If you count carefully, there are no fried potatoes for sale in Beiyang City. However, now every household grows potatoes, and the harvest is so good, there will be many people frying potatoes in the future.

At that time, it will come down to technique and seasoning.

This was only the second day they had set up the stall. Although it had only been two days, the number of customers increased.

The two brothers had never earned so much money before. Although they were tired after a day's work, they were both smiling.

The fried potatoes taste delicious.

"Dear guests, would you like your potatoes fried until they are a little browned or just cooked through?" Atu asked Zhou Binglin and the others.

Zhou Binglin had never eaten this before, so he said, "One portion of the freshly cooked version, one portion of the browned version. No, two portions of each."

"to make!"

After the two kinds of potatoes are fried in the pan, sprinkle them with seasonings such as five-spice chili powder, chopped green onion, coriander, and vinegar. Then the small pan is shaken a few times, and in a short while, the potatoes are covered with sauce.

The aroma of the sauce is also completely released, it smells scary.

The master and his servants couldn't help drooling. It smelled so good! What on earth was put in it?

"Here, your fried potatoes are ready! Twenty cents in total."

The servant quickly took out the money and then took the potatoes impatiently.

The potatoes are placed in a small straw basket with a layer of oil paper inside, and then the potatoes are put in.

The servants carried potatoes and looked at Zhou Binglin eagerly.

Zhou Binglin: "Let's go back and eat later."
