Halfway through the meal, Captain Liu and the others returned, talking wearily as they went to get more food.
Gu Yunyang observed for a moment and asked, "Is it not going too smoothly?"
Team Leader Liu waved his hand, his fatigue impossible to hide, but his mood was not bad: "It's okay, we expected this kind of situation before. We were prepared, and we will definitely be able to finish it in the next few days."
Team Leader Liu didn't say much. Although they were colleagues, he couldn't casually reveal details of their case handling.
Gu Yunyang asked casually without saying anything more.
That night, Xing Kai returned to the room they had initially arranged for him to rest, which was the first time he had ever done so.
"We should be done in a couple of days. Then we can head back."
After arriving here, almost a week has passed.
Gu Yunyang had no objection and nodded, saying, "Sure. Then we need to make some preparations. I'll go buy some local specialties from the capital in the next couple of days."
When we get back, we can share it with everyone.
Then, the day after tomorrow, I'll take everyone to see the house. Oh, by the way, give me your letter of introduction so I can buy the tickets.
"We need to check the tickets again; the dates are still undecided. And it seems you'll be delayed for another two days?"
Gu Yunyang found Xing Kai's words rather strange: "Why do I have to wait two more days?"
"You'll find out when the time comes." Xing Kai didn't say much more, but just smiled and said that sentence with a profound meaning.
They didn't say anything more after that.
Gu Yunyang found it a little strange, but didn't think much of it.
The next day, Gu Yunyang went out to buy some local specialties from the capital.
Gu Yunyang planned to buy several roast ducks. Although he could make roast ducks himself, he still wanted to buy some as a local specialty.
Although they were cold by the time I got home, they didn't taste the same.
But it gives people a different feeling.
This is a specialty of the capital city.
Gu Yunyang put in some effort and ordered three roast ducks by himself.
He planned to wander around; there were quite a few shops that specialized in roast duck, so he would put on makeup and then make another trip.
Anyway, the space inside the base can keep it fresh and warm, so you can take it out to eat anytime.
Afterwards, Gu Yunyang went to the supply and marketing cooperative, intending to buy some Beijing-style pastries.
"Beijing Eight Delicacies" is also called "Big Eight Delicacies". "Beijing" refers to eight kinds of pastries with different shapes and flavors.
It was first created by the imperial kitchen of the Ming Dynasty and later spread to the common people. The filling consists of eight ingredients, including jujube paste, green plum, raisins, rose, red bean paste, white sugar, banana, and salt and pepper. The dough is made with lard, water and flour. The filling is wrapped in the dough and then baked.
They are generally made into eight shapes, such as flat round, ruyi, peach, apricot, kidney, jujube flower, lotus leaf, and oval, namely, Fu (福) cake, Lu (禄) cake, Shou (寿) cake, Xi (喜) cake, Taishi cake, pepper and salt cake, jujube flower cake, and Sachima.
After he bought some, the sales clerk at the supply and marketing cooperative probably realized that Gu Yunyang was from out of town and had some money.
So he recommended to Gu Yunyang, "We recently got some dried fruit, a specialty of our capital city. Would you like to buy some?"
Gu Yunyang understood that the other party probably realized he wasn't from the capital and was from out of town, so he was buying local specialties.
However, Gu Yunyang smiled and said, "Big sister, I'm also from the capital. But I work in another city. You have dried fruit, right? Give me some of everything, and please give me a lot."
The older woman was taken aback and looked Gu Yunyang up and down. However, upon hearing Gu Yunyang's accent, she nodded and said, "Your accent is quite authentic. Since you're also from the capital, you know that our dried fruits, such as apricot, pear, and begonia, are all very good. Would you like some of them?"
Gu Yunyang asked curiously, "The first two are fine, but why is Qiu Haitang still a newcomer? This month doesn't seem right."
The eldest sister chuckled: "It's quite a coincidence. Some begonias bloom and bear fruit early, this is the first batch."
Gu Yunyang nodded. Whether it was the first batch or not, it looked pretty good to him anyway: "Then I'll buy some of everything."
