Chapter 223 A Nice Noodle House
The two returned to the vicinity of HKU.
Jiang Jun didn't want his beloved sports car to appear in front of his classmates again, which would cause heated discussions, so he planned to let Li Jiaqian get off the car and cross the street by himself near the overpass.
Seeing this, Li Jiaqian looked down at the time on his watch, put his arm around Jiang Jun's shoulders, and suggested with a chuckle.
"Old Jiang, didn't you say that Senior Sister Su went to work as a tutor this morning? It's meaningless for you to go home so early."
"We can save our breakfast for later. Now that we're back in the area, there happens to be a delicious noodle shop nearby. Let's go over and have a bowl of noodles."
Seeing Li Jiaqian's hospitality, Jiang Jun smiled bitterly, nodded and said, "Okay, then don't get out of the car yet. I'll find a place to park nearby first."
"OK."
After Jiang Jun parked the car, he followed Li Jiaqian towards the "noodle shop" he mentioned, and he couldn't help but mutter to himself.
I must eat the breakfast made by my girlfriend, and I can’t spoil the fun of my brother’s enthusiasm.
They are both breakfast, so just don’t choose and eat both. At this time, you will be happy even if you are full.
A few minutes later.
The two came to a specialty noodle restaurant called "Mianmianjudao". This noodle restaurant was located under the overpass. If it was located on the opposite side of the road, it would be blocked by the bridge hole.
The decoration style of the store is quite interesting. It is obviously just a noodle shop, but it gives people a literary and artistic feeling.
Even though the location of the store isn't ideal and it's only morning, the business is still pretty good.
"The noodles in this restaurant are very unique and taste great. Have you been here before?" Li Jiaqian turned around and looked at Jiang Jun and asked with a smile.
"No, it's my first time here."
Jiang Jun smiled at him, nodded and said, "I can see that you must be a frequent customer of this store."
"No, I'm a distinguished guest. I'm one of the first to top up their membership, so I get the biggest discount."
At this point, Li Jiaqian suddenly smiled awkwardly and said, "Well, I used to come here to eat noodles with Yaoyao, and she introduced me to come here to eat."
Jiang Jun:?
No, buddy, you've just been separated from each other for less than an hour, and you haven't even started dating yet, and you're already calling each other "Yaoyao"?
Looking at Jiang Jun's strange expression, Li Jiaqian seemed to have not yet realized the real "problem". He chuckled, put his arm around Jiang Jun's shoulder and continued walking inside.
"But I won't reveal too much about the characteristics of this noodle shop. You will know it after you experience it yourself. If you like it, you can bring Senior Sister Su here to eat in the future."
"Okay, let's wait and see."
After the two of them sat down, Jiang Jun picked up the menu on the table and looked at it. Then he looked around at the other customers who were eating noodles and realized that their noodle shop was indeed quite unique.
Each bowl of noodles is named after a four-character idiom or a line of poetry, and the meaning is quite good.
Success, a bright future, happiness and contentment...
As for the menu of poetry, it is even more interesting.
[If I were to become the Green Emperor someday...]
[There is no Bodhi tree…]
【There will always be a time to ride the wind and waves...】
【…】
Of course, apart from naming noodles after these idioms and poems, it is not that simple, there are additional rules.
For noodles with four-character idioms, there will be red envelopes of different amounts corresponding to different words at the bottom of the bowl, which can be used for cash. The biggest reward is to get a free bowl of noodles.
What’s interesting is that for noodles named after poems, the poem will still appear at the bottom of the bowl, and customers who eat this bowl of noodles will randomly choose tasks and rewards.
According to Li Jiaqian's introduction to Jiang Jun, there are a total of five types of poetry noodles tasks that he has discovered so far.
The first method: write down the entire poem on the spot without any help or reminders from others. If there is not a single typo, you can unlock the reward. The difficulty is four stars.
The second method: recite the entire poem to the dedicated staff of the noodle shop on the spot, without relying on any help or reminders, and then unlock the reward. The difficulty is three stars.
The third type: Say the title, author, dynasty of the corresponding poem, as well as the general meaning of the entire poem to unlock the reward. The difficulty is two stars.
The fourth type: Answer the previous or next sentence of the corresponding poem to unlock the reward. The difficulty is one star.
After understanding, Jiang Jun held the menu in his hand. He couldn't help but look up at Li Jiaqian and asked in confusion: "Interesting, huh? What about the fifth type? What is the five-star difficulty you mentioned?"
Li Jiaqian looked reminiscent and explained to Jiang Jun with a chuckle.
"The fifth type is more difficult to encounter. The five-star difficulty is the finale. That is, for the poem you draw, you not only have to write down the entire poem, but also recite another poem with the same general meaning or artistic conception."
"The fifth type is rarely encountered, and even fewer people can successfully pass it."
"You said you are a regular customer of this noodle shop and one of the first members. Have you ever encountered levels of five-star difficulty?" Jiang Jun asked.
"I do not have."
Li Jiaqian smiled and said with a somewhat proud expression: "But Siyao has had it, and the random reward she unlocked is the highest reward in the store."
"What is the highest reward? What are the rewards?"
Jiang Jun hurriedly asked, becoming more and more curious about this noodle shop and the story of Li Jiaqian and the other two here.
"As for rewards, they are nothing more than red envelopes with cash discounts, red envelopes with cash that can be taken away, small prizes such as tissues, drinks, small toys, and free meals."
"As for the highest reward that Siyao unlocked, it is to get six free meals, but there are restrictions. Either she can come to waive the meal herself, or she can only designate one person to leave the other person's phone number and surname. Other than that, no one else can borrow the meal."
Hearing this, Jiang Jun showed an understanding expression on his face.
"To put it bluntly, Senior Zhou is leaving the chance of getting a free meal for you," Jiang Jun said.
Li Jiaqian nodded with a wry smile and said, "Not only that, she didn't use any free meal opportunities. She always paid for her noodles, and she gave all six free meal opportunities to me."
"Otherwise, how do you think I was attracted to this and how did I become a member of their store?"
Jiang Jun was slightly stunned.
"6!"
He pulled his chair closer to Li Jiaqian, and the gossipy thoughts in his mind appeared for the first time. He asked curiously in a low voice: "Hey, so what poem was the one that Senior Zhou ate? And which poem with a similar artistic conception did she recite to unlock the highest reward?"
"Cough cough."
Li Jiaqian waved his hands, his eyes became evasive, and his expression became embarrassed. He stuffed the menu into Jiang Jun's hand.
"Don't ask about social matters. Well, hurry up and order your food. I've introduced everything to you. Just choose what you want to eat."
Jiang Jun: ...
Not interesting.
He said "Oh", took out his mobile phone and took a picture of the menu. He originally wanted to send it to the fairy tutor, but after thinking about it, he decided not to send it.
Jiang Jun thought, why not just tell the fairy tutor nothing now, and bring her here to eat noodles later, and then see if he can also draw the five-star difficulty one, and they can challenge it together.
This damn desire to win.
Moreover, the couple's desire to win suddenly became stronger.
In the end, Jiang Jun gave up on choosing poetry and ordered a bowl of "happiness and perfection" idiom noodles to try.
Below the meaningful names of the menu, there are also types of noodles, as well as the types of meat and ingredients, including how to cook them, so customers can choose according to their own preferences.
After all, when it comes down to it, these are just using literature and art as a marketing tool, but in the end we have to return to reality.
But in general, eating a bowl of noodles allows customers to review idioms, allusions and poems, and the starting point of this cultural atmosphere is ultimately good.
"The 'All-inclusive' noodle shop is indeed quite interesting." "Since you are urging me to update, I have to update more."
