After coming out of the flea market, I found that the sun was about to set and the sky was getting dark.
So I found a state-owned restaurant nearby, walked in, and looked at the wall.
It said that the dishes served today were: stir-fried pork with peppers, twice-cooked pork with dried tofu, braised fish, salted fish, steamed pork with rice flour, stir-fried chicken with peppers, steamed eggs with lime water, boiled water spinach, stir-fried red radish, and stir-fried red radish moss.
Wang Yuanchao thought for a moment and said to the salesperson: "Serve the people, comrade. I'd like one portion of shaved salt fish, one portion of stir-fried pork with chili peppers, one portion of stir-fried red cabbage, and two portions of rice. Thank you."
"Labor is the most glorious, comrade. Fried pork with chili is 1.5 yuan per portion, with 2 taels of meat coupons. Sliced salt fish is 1 yuan, no coupons required.
A serving of stir-fried red sweat vegetables is 20 cents, no ticket required.
Two bowls of rice, 60 cents, 4 liang of food coupons, a total of 3.3 yuan, 4 liang of food coupons and 2 liang of meat coupons. "
Wang Yuanchao took out the money and ticket and handed them to the salesperson, then went to the dining table and waited.
A meal cost three yuan and thirty cents, plus four ounces of grain coupons and two ounces of meat coupons.
No wonder not many people come to eat in state-owned restaurants.
You have to know that most people's salary now is only more than 30 yuan, and they have to support a family. The meat coupons for a person with urban household registration are only two taels per month. Most people can't afford this expense at all.
After waiting for a long time, the dishes we ordered were cooked one after another. After Wang Yuanchao came over to the front desk,
Seeing the huge portion of stir-fried pork with peppers, shaved salt fish and stir-fried red cabbage, Wang Yuanchao took the first chopsticks, picked up a piece of shaved salt fish and put it into his mouth.
Fresh, salty, fragrant, spicy, the fish is tender and the marinated flavor bursts in your mouth.
After Wang Yuanchao chewed the food slowly, he was amazed by the deliciousness of the salted fish and squinted his eyes.
Wang Yuanchao was a gourmet in his previous life. He was also born in Hunan Province. He loved Hunan cuisine and could not live without spicy food. He lived for 60 years and tasted delicacies from all over Hunan Province.
It may be because the current water resources are not polluted by industrial wastewater.
The salted fish that Wang Yuanchao ate today was so delicious that even Wang Yuanchao, a top Hunan cuisine connoisseur, was amazed by it.
After finishing this bite, Wang Yuanchao picked up a piece of fried pork with chili pepper and put it in his mouth and started chewing.
The spicy flavor is blended with the aroma of pork, garlic and moldy beans to perfection. It is juicy and refreshing and goes well with rice, giving you a full sense of satisfaction when you eat it.
Wang Yuanchao chewed slowly and sighed that the hot peppers are still delicious now. The aroma and spiciness of the peppers are amazing.
After various improvements, the peppers in the past no longer have the flavor of today's sharp peppers.
Wang Yuanchao likes to chew his food slowly and thoroughly before swallowing it. If he eats quickly, it puts too much pressure on his stomach, making it difficult for the food to digest, which can easily lead to food accumulation and a big belly.
This is also the reason why Wang Yuanchao in his previous life lived for 60 years and always maintained a good figure without a big belly.
Although overeating feels great, it is bad for your stomach and is not good for maintaining your body.
Although Wang Yuanchao has space and spiritual spring water in this life and does not have to worry about losing his figure, the habits formed over decades of life cannot be changed.
After dinner, Wang Yuanchao took the bus back to the guesthouse near the train station.
After turning on the light in the room, Wang Yuanchao took out the stationery he bought at the post office and began to write a letter of denunciation.
In the letter, Wang Yuanchao described in detail the ancestors of Wang's uncle's family, as well as the house and institution in the city where the old man left for Wang's uncle's family to hide treasures.
Wang Yuanchao was about to go to the countryside in the northeast, thousands of miles away from Xingcheng.
And Wang's uncle and his family didn't know that the old man had left treasures for Wang Yuanchao outside the city.
Therefore, Wang Yuanchao reported the Wang family anonymously and was not worried that someone from Wang's uncle's family would implicate him.
After writing the letter of complaint, Wang Yuanchao held the pen in his left hand and began to copy the letter four times, stroke by stroke, to make sure that no one would recognize his handwriting.
Then he wrote a letter to sever ties with the Wang family.
He plans to go to the Xingcheng Evening News tomorrow to publish an announcement severing ties with the Wang family, and then mail the letter of denunciation.
Wang Yuanchao knew that in this day and age, letters sent within the city could be received within one day.
The dream left no trace. In the past two days, Wang Yuanchao had traveled to all the state-owned stores and supply and marketing cooperatives in Xingcheng by car and on foot in order to buy supplies in the countryside.
After waking up naturally from a good sleep, Wang Yuanchao washed up, took out two hot scallion pancakes from the space and ate them.
When he walked out of the guesthouse, Wang Yuanchao realized that the sun was shining directly on his head. So I didn't waste any time and took the bus directly to the newspaper office.
There are too many people in Star City. Every bus these days is packed with people. Fortunately, the windows of the bus are fully open while it is moving, and the oncoming wind can blow away the smell and heat inside the bus.
As soon as the bus stopped at the station, the smell was so sour and pungent, the smell of sweat, even foot odor, and the smell of chicken and duck feces, along with the high temperature and diesel smell in the bus, poured into the bodies of everyone on the bus.
Dizziness, headache, nausea, and vomiting, Wang Yuanchao felt that all the negative conditions in his body were about to be squeezed out.
After finally reaching the platform of the newspaper office, Wang Yuanchao squeezed and crawled out of the car, took several deep breaths of fresh air, and slowly recovered.
As Wang Yuanchao walked slowly, he used his consciousness to take out a military teapot filled with spiritual spring water from the space.
After taking a few big gulps, he finally became alert. When he arrived at the door of the newspaper office, Wang Yuanchao was a spirited young man again.
He made his demands clear to the editor of the newspaper.
This period is very special. Many people have published announcements in the newspaper to sever ties with the newspaper, and the newspaper staff are not surprised.
After the editor of the newspaper understood Wang Yuanchao's demands, he asked Wang Yuanchao to pay the money for the advertisement and confirmed that the statement of severance of ties would be published in the newspaper early the next morning. Then Wang Yuanchao walked out of the newspaper.
With nothing to do, Wang Yuanchao has a heavy workload these past two days and needs to purchase a lot of daily necessities.
Now that all the purchases have been completed, Wang Yuanchao feels relieved.
After relaxing, Wang Yuanchao didn't want to take the bus again to try the taste, so he slowly walked back towards the train station while entering the space with his consciousness to check the situation in the space.
First, there was the barren mountain. In the past two days, Wang Yuanchao bought some fruits that were available in Hunan Province. He took a lot of seeds from the fruits and planted them on the barren mountain.
Among them, the seeds of fruits such as apple trees, orange trees, tangerine trees, strawberry, star anise, watermelon, cucumber, cantaloupe, pear melon, lychee, longan, etc. have all sprouted under the irrigation of spiritual spring water.
Moreover, the time spent in the desolate mountains in this space is 10 to 1 compared to the time spent outside.
Wang Yuanchao estimated that it would not be long before he would be able to eat endless supply of southern fruits when he went to the countryside in Northeast China.
