”Of course, the specialty of the cuisine department is the Xue Clan's old name!”
”The Xue Clan's old name!” Sima Lin followed up: ”Is the Jiangwan Crab the Xue Family's famous dish?!”
”That's right, that's right!” Li Dazhi said bluntly, ”The Big Thread Crab in Jiangwan is a world-class delicacy, and the old name of the Xue Clan is the best. But I'm afraid the price is a little expensive!”
Sima Lin was startled, he looked at Li Gao and asked: ”Tell me to the extent of how expensive it is, Uncle Li!”
While shaking his head, Li Jun cleared her throat and said, ”A 5 tael river crab merchant would sell at least 100 yuan in wholesale. Even if the old Xue Clan name is used, it would at least need 170 points!”
He turned his head and glanced at Sima Lin and the other two, and said: ”If the three of you were to eat crabs, I'm afraid that it would cost you one or two thousand gold coins!”
Sima Lin was startled, then laughed as he raised his arm: ”This is nothing, we have Miss He Ye!”
He stared at He Ye for a while and said: ”Ye had said before, you will pay for your meal on the other side of the river, right?”
Before He Ye could reply, Sima Lin said again: ”He Ye, you have to keep to your words!”
Sima Lin flexed his fingers, narrowed his eyes, and stared at He Ye: ”If you say it, you won't be able to take back the water you threw out. He Ye, what do you say?” Sima Lin used a branch to trap He Ye tightly.
He Ye was so angry that her teeth started to itch, she even had the thought of killing Sima Lin.
He Ye and Chen Erpu had plotted to investigate Sima Lin's secret, but Chen Erpu, this idiot, had nothing to do with it! After messing up his stomach, he was too lazy to walk around, making He Ye waste his youth, and now, Sima Lin had suggested to eat the crabs for her to pay him, not ten, a hundred, but a thousand.
He Ye had previously said that if she wanted to pay after coming to shore, she could only refer to noodles and rice. At most, she could cook a dish or two.
10 RMB for a bowl of noodles and 30 RMB for 3 bowls of noodles. 100 RMB for a bowl of fried vegetables and rice.
But crabs are expensive, one or two hundred dollars each; three people eat it but not one or two thousand dollars?
One to two thousand was the monthly salary of an sanitation worker, not to mention, He Ye and the others were students who didn't have a salary source;
Even if He Ye did manage to get some take-out water after school, she could only earn one or two thousand yuan a month like Amitabha. After spending one month's worth of money for a meal, her days would not pass by …
He Ye pondered over the matter, when suddenly an idea struck him. She raised her eyebrows and stared at Sima Lin, ”Ye-zi did say that I would pay for the noodles and rice, but that means eighty percent of the money should go to the crab feast! We're going to use AA, so how about three thirteen and one left? ”
Sima Lin's eyes and mouth were wide open in shock. He only had 100 yuan on him, but Chen Erpu's money was already in his pockets.
Sima Lin, who originally wanted to fight He Ye, drooped her head and did not say a word.
He Ye disdainfully snorted as she looked at Sima Lin and said, ”Brother Sima, shouldn't we change the traditions of the Sima Clan? No one is an idiot if they keep trying to rope someone in! ”
After a pause, she raised her arms grandly and said: ”Crabs are a big meal, how can we, poor students, afford to eat it! He Ye couldn't afford it, neither could Sima and the two servants.
It was an ambiguous phrase that Sima Lin and Chen Erpu couldn't understand.
The two of them looked at each other in dismay. Silence reigned on the black ship.
Boatman Li dared to look back at them and laughed. ”What are you all so lonely for? ”If you don't eat the old name of the Xue Clan's crab feast, then don't eat it. I will treat you guys to some sweet potatoes for money!”
”No money!” He Ye replied back with a sentence, ”A pie has fallen from the sky! There's really a free lunch? ”
Li Dazhi shook his head as he scratched his head with a smile and said, ”You guys are students, you don't have much money, so don't slap your own face for the plate! Our hometown's folks grow vegetables all year round and earn only a few hundred dollars a month. Are you students eating what crab feast? ”
Li Dazhi said in a teasing tone, ”My humble son opened an potato noodle shop in the Old Street of Tang Dynasty. The restaurant's business was booming, and treating all of you to a free potato noodle restaurant could be considered advertising …”
