The food store is not very big. The stores here are not very big.

The inner room is the kitchen, and outside there are only two square tables, each with four stools.

At this time, there were two people sitting at each table and three people at each table.

We can only share a table.

The waiter came over quickly, and Father Liu didn't wait for the waiter to speak before he directly said, "Brother Xiaoer, there are six of us in our group. Can you help us to share a table? They can have two or three people sitting at a table and it won't be so crowded. Otherwise, if the six of us join them, any table will seem very crowded."

The waiter looked at the two tables, thought for a moment, and nodded, "Sir, what you said makes sense. I'll go discuss it with the guests."

The waiter walked between the two of them and whispered a few words. After the two of them looked at Liu's father and his group, they stood up and sat down at another table.

"Sir, please take a seat here. What would you like to eat?"

"Any recommendations?"

"Noodles and wontons are fine, as well as stir-fried vegetables and stir-fried cabbage with pork..."

Although there are more seasonal vegetables here than in the north, they are not much more.

"Give us six bowls of wontons, and two stir-fried dishes, one meat dish and one vegetable dish. You can arrange it, little brother."

"okay!"

After a while, the waiter brought wontons to everyone. There were a few chopped green onions and two green vegetables floating in the clear soup wontons. It seemed that the wonton noodles served in all the food shops were similar.

The stir-fried dishes took a lot longer to come out, one plate of stir-fried Chinese spinach and the other plate of stir-fried pork head.

There was quite a lot of pork head meat, but it didn't look very nice after it was fried. Maybe there wasn't enough soy sauce to color it, so it looked a little too white. There wasn't much seasoning either, just some Jerusalem artichokes and scallions.

Finally, the waiter brought up a small bowl of something red.

"Sir, this is our specialty hot sauce. If you need it, you can add some to the dishes. If not, I'll take it away."

So that's how it is. No wonder I just saw the waiter bring a small bowl to another table. Some people at that table asked for some in the bowl, while others didn't. The waiter took the bowl back.

Father Liu scraped the pork head meat, leaving a little space, pointed there and said, "Give us a spoonful over here!"

"okay!"

The waiter scooped a spoonful of soup onto the bowl, then left with the bowl.

Liu Caixia was also very curious about what the hot sauce tasted like. She took the chopsticks and dipped a piece of pork head in it. She chewed it for a few bites before saying, "It tastes the same as the shavings of hot pepper we made. It's still a little spicy. Xiaolu, dip it in a little. But I can't tell what's in it."

"it is good."

Liu Xiaolu also tasted it. She eats chili peppers, but she can't handle the pure spicy taste. She usually eats snacks that are spicy, fragrant, or sauce-flavored.

Liu Hao and the other two also like spicy food, so they finished a plate of pork head meat dipped in chili peppers.

Father Liu looked at the empty plate and sighed, "If it weren't for this spicy sauce, I wouldn't be able to eat this pig's head."

Liu Hao: "That's right, we can't waste food, hehehe."

After saying that, he touched his mouth heartlessly with his hand.

Qu Dingliang: "Now that we are full, do you want to go to the grocery store and have a look?"

Liu Caixia: "Let's go, let's go and see if there are any good things. After that, let's go back to sleep early. Although there is nothing to do during the day, the boat is shaking so much that I can't sleep well. I hope I can get a good sleep when the boat stops at night."

"Let's go! Waiter, come and settle the bill!" After Liu's father paid the bill and came out, the others had already walked towards the grocery store.

When I entered the grocery store, I realized that it was really a grocery store and it had everything.

There are all kinds of oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, needles and thread, rouge and powder, cloth and ready-made clothes, shoe soles, coarse and fine grains, dried fruits and candies, toys and porcelain, pots and pans, and everything else.

In the small shop, all the counters were fully stocked. To prevent people from stealing things, two waiters stood on high wooden chairs to watch the surroundings, and two more waiters on the ground greeted customers.

Everyone else looked here and there as if they were seeing something strange.

Father Liu started chatting with a waiter, "Brother, does our store have any rare seeds or anything like that?"

"Yes, I'll show you around and see if there's anything you like!"

The waiter took Father Liu to a corner filled with small sacks. He took out two sacks and said, "Look at these two seeds. The owner brought them back from the south. But we didn't know if they could be planted. No one dared to try them after they were brought back. The owner said no one would buy them, so he took them back and tried to plant them himself."

Father Liu took a look at what was in the small bag. He saw some small particles in the bag that looked like melon seeds, but their shapes were more irregular.

Father Liu felt it was very familiar, but for a moment he forgot what seed it was.

Subconsciously he thought this seed was very useful.

So I took the bag of seeds and looked at it carefully. I couldn't remember it, so I stopped thinking about it and asked directly, "How much is this bag of seeds?"

"Sir, the boss said that this bag of seeds will cost at least 100 to 200 coins. If the price is lower than this, we won't sell it. It's really a price that won't make any money."

The waiter knew that the boss was lowering the price again and again because he couldn't sell the products, so he tried very hard to promote the products. After all, if the products were sold, it would be considered their achievement.

The more you buy, the more rewards you will get.

"Okay, I'll take it. Forget about the other bag of seeds. Don't buy too many unfamiliar new things." In fact, Father Liu knew the seeds in that area. It was a kind of bean. He didn't like eating that kind of beans. It was very troublesome to grow the seeds and could only be grown in the hot south. It wouldn't work if it was even slightly cold.

"Okay, sir, I'll pack it for you right away. Is there anything else you need?"

"I'll take a look and see if anyone else needs anything. We can pay together then."

Liu Caixia selected a lot of things from this era. The prices at this small pier are relatively cheap, and if you buy a lot, you can get wholesale prices.

She bought two batches of cotton cloth, as well as some daily necessities, such as pots, pans, and bowls, which Liu Xiaolu could put away when the time comes.

Liu Xiaolu chose a kind of candy from this era, wrapped in oil paper. She was very curious and wanted to buy some to try. She had never seen this kind of candy before. The candies were wrapped one by one in oil paper, just like the packaging of modern candy wrappers.

Another waiter saw that Liu Xiaolu wanted the candy, so he introduced it to her: "This candy has a fresh taste from the south. It is said to be an exotic fruit that can only grow in hot places. It is very delicious and a rare commodity."

"Mom, buy me some to try!"

"Okay, Xiao Er brother, give her one portion."

Seeing that Liu Caixia didn't ask the price, the waiter readily wrapped a portion in oil paper and handed it to her. Liu Xiaolu opened it and took a look. There were about twenty of them.
