Pokémon: World of Wonder

After looking at the river view for a while, Jiang Ye got bored and just sat in the cabin playing with the communicator until the passenger ship docked.

After getting off the passenger ship from the floating bridge, Jiang Ye stood beside the floating bridge and stretched his body. It was really fast to take a boat. It took Jiang Ye most of the day to get from Jinhui to Xiangyun. Shuangkou Port was on the other side of Jinhui. It only took three hours to get Jiang Ye there.

It is now 8:30 in the evening. Jiang Ye, who had prepared a plan in advance, first walked into an alley next to the pier. He had made a plan in advance on the boat and found that this alley, which looked very festive, was the place that specialized in selling local specialties.

I walked into the alley, passed some shops that looked low-class, and picked a shop that looked very expensive and walked in.

"Hello, welcome to Fortune & Fortune, I'm Xiaojiu, the shopping guide No. 06. I'm happy to serve you. May I ask if you need to buy any specialties?"

As soon as I pushed open the door, the doormen, a man and a woman, on both sides immediately bowed and said in clear voices, "Welcome." Then the female shopping guide took the initiative to step forward and introduce herself.

"Hello, I'm here to buy, to buy"

Jiang Ye recalled in his mind, what was it called?

"It seems to be something called fried squid. Do you sell it here?"

Jiang Ye, who had just got off the boat, was a little confused, but he believed that these professional shopping guides could accurately find matching items among their limited merchandise.

The shopping guide was stunned for a moment, then recalled it carefully, and said with a professional smile, "Well, fried squid should be our Shuangkou Port's specialty, special dry-cooked fried squid, please follow me."

Jiang Ye followed the shopping guide inside, passing by various display cabinets that looked very high-end, and finally stopped in front of a display cabinet. Inside was a pair of croakers that had been broken into two halves, lying one right side up and the other upside down in the display cabinet.

Jiang Ye was the first to ask, "Is this, an ingredient?"

The shopping guide kept smiling and explained, "Of course not. What you see now is the dry-cooked squid. We will fry it in various ways, and finally..."

As she spoke, the female shopping guide picked up a small box from the cabinet beside her and handed it over. Inside the small box were several pieces of torn fish meat. "It has become like this now. Customer, please taste it."

Jiang Ye nodded in thanks, picked up a toothpick beside him and picked up a piece. The layers of fish meat were loose yet seemed to be stuck together, and the fine and neat muscle fibers could be seen on each layer.

Put it in your mouth, close your lips and teeth, and the first thing you feel in your mouth is the extreme crispness, but it doesn't feel like it will explode at the touch. Instead, this crispness has a slight toughness that makes you want to take another bite right away.

After becoming crispy in the mouth, under the infiltration of saliva, this crispness becomes extremely soft and tender. The fresh, sweet, salty and fragrant flavor wrapped in the flavor of time fills the mouth, making people salivate and linger.

After eating a piece, Jiang Ye nodded secretly in his heart. She was worthy of being her sister. She really knew how to eat. If Jiang Ye came here by himself, he would at most try the special dishes and would not even bother to buy such local specialties.

Putting down the toothpick, Jiang Ye asked softly, "Excuse me, how much is this fried squid sold for?"

The female shopping guide still had a fake smile on her face. "We have three price ranges. The first two have a physical weight of 500g. One is the affordable package, priced at 499 Alliance Coins. One is the premium package, priced at 888 Alliance Coins. The last one is the luxury package, priced at 6666 Alliance Coins, and the physical weight is 1000g."

Jiang Ye thought for a moment and said, "Then help me get 4, no, 5 boxes, deluxe edition."

One box for parents, one box for Sister Yan, one box for Jiang Yue, one box for the six little ones, and one box for herself. Jiang Yue had specially separated her and Sister Yan's messages before, just to get an extra copy. This was the tacit understanding that Jiang Ye and Jiang Yue had cultivated over the years.

"5 boxes, deluxe edition?" The female shopping guide was also a little surprised. After all, their store had been open for three years, and the sales of the deluxe edition were several times the sum of the other two models.

The female shopping guide still showed a professional smile and said, "Okay, please follow me to the front desk."

Under the watchful eyes of the front desk clerk and the female shopping guide, Jiang Ye paid the bill readily without any hesitation, and put the five boxes of specialties into the space props. The female shopping guide turned around and walked out of the store with Jiang Ye.

After watching Jiang Ye push the door and leave, the smile on the female shopping guide's face became more sincere and brilliant. She bowed and said loudly, "Welcome to visit again."

Well, Jiang Ye glanced at the time and it was almost nine o'clock. Jiang Ye set the bedtime for himself from ten to eleven o'clock every day, so he had to hurry.

What was the next one? Jiang Ye thought about it and thought it was some kind of cake. What kind of cake was it? Mainly because Jiang Ye was making breakfast for the six children at that time and didn't pay much attention to Jiang Yue's words.

Jiang Ye had made a guide for this thing on the boat before, so he turned on the communicator and checked it out. Oh! Fish cake! This thing doesn't seem to be something that can be preserved for a long time, it's a kind of food.

Jiang Ye took a taxi directly to the nearest Pokémon Center. On the way, he asked the driver if he knew what fish cake was. Unexpectedly, the driver complained and said, "I really don't know who made this damn thing popular."

Not only is the production process complicated, the key is that the shelf life is very short. The most important thing is that there are very few people who can make this thing now. Tourists from other places like Jiang Ye chase him around asking questions every day, which is very annoying.

"Master, do you know where to buy this fish cake?"

Facing Jiang Ye's question, the driver glanced at Jiang Ye and said, "Hey, of course I know. Do you want me to change the route and take you to the queue?"

queue?

Jiang Ye was stunned, but still asked honestly, "Master, didn't you say it was early? Why are we queuing up so late at night?"

The driver said in a frivolous tone, "We all have to eat this stuff, and we can't do it in an industrialized process. There are so many tourists from other places, so of course we can only queue up. Let me see."

The driver swiped the chat group on the communicator interface while driving, "Handsome, you are lucky. I will take you there now. You should be able to buy it tomorrow." (You cannot play with your phone while driving, please do not imitate)

Jiang Ye frowned, this was simply a waste of his precious rest time.

Jiang Ye thought for a moment and replied, "Okay, Master, take me over there to have a look. I'll just take a look. Ten minutes is enough. Wait for me for a while, and I'll give you 50 more Alliance Coins."

"Okay, let's change the route."

12 minutes later, the driver stopped by the roadside and said, "Shuai, I'll just wait for you for 25 minutes."

Jiang Ye nodded and got out of the car. He looked at the surrounding streets and the long winding queues. Jiang Ye glanced at the shop at the head of the queue, turned around and walked around to the back of the breakfast shop. He took a look at the door lock, which was an old-fashioned one.

Jiang Ye didn't even bother to knock on the door. He just inserted two iron wires into it, making sounds of click, click, click.

Jiang Ye easily broke the door lock within a few seconds. As soon as he pushed the door open, a bone-cutting knife came at him. As the saying goes, when it comes to burglary, the owner has the right to deal with the thief at will.

Jiang Ye casually stretched out his hand, and gripped the broadsword tightly between his index and middle fingers. His eyes adjusted to the dimness, and he saw that there was a skinny old man on the other end of the handle.

"Old man, you made that fish cake, right?"

Facing Jiang Ye's question, the old man was stunned for a moment, and then his face was filled with anger, "Fuck, you dare to break into a house and steal just for a few pieces of food?!"

Jiang Ye frowned. The old man's voice was a bit loud. He looked into the room through the old man's skinny body. There was a rocking bed next to the old wooden bed. A cute child was lying on the rocking bed and sleeping soundly.

"Old man, you'd better keep your voice down."

As he spoke, Jiang Ye produced a dagger out of thin air with his other hand and pointed it at the child on the bed.

The old man turned his head and glanced at the sleeping child, then turned back to look at Jiang Ye even more angry, and the strength in his hands increased a lot.

This old man must have been a good fighter when he was young, but he is old and weak, and his strength can't cause any trouble for Jiang Ye.

The old man was shaking all over, and finally he went limp, as if all his energy had drained out.

"Come in." These words seemed to drain all his strength.

Ten minutes later, Jiang Ye happily picked up fifty pieces of fish cakes and put them into the space props. The good thing about space props is that as long as the space props don't break, the shelf life is almost permanent.

He walked to the door and glanced at the old man who was taking care of the child. The old man sensed Jiang Ye's gaze and turned to look at Jiang Ye angrily, "Damn brat, what else do you want?!"

Jiang Ye produced a thick stack of Alliance coins and slammed them on the shoe cabinet beside the door, then slammed the door shut.

"I always pay for my food."
