"Egg burger! Haven't you ever had it?"
"It doesn't matter if you haven't tried it before! I tried it for you, and it's delicious!"
Foreigner: ...Thank you!
In the end, Xu Nanxing gave the foreigner an egg burger.
The main thing was that she saw the other party's specific information.
This foreigner is named Stephen. He was sent to Hong Kong by a foreign-funded enterprise to be responsible for foreign trade.
Xu Nanxing asked the other party for a business card, thinking that he could consult him if he had any questions about foreign trade in the future.
It was also the first time for Stephen to eat a burger that didn’t look like a burger. It felt like opening the door to a new world.
He also enthusiastically asked Xu Nanxing where he bought the egg burger so that he could buy it for lunch at noon.
This can’t be bought anywhere else, it’s made exclusively by my Xiaoxing!
Xu Nanxing could only tell the other party regretfully that this was made for her by her family, not bought outside.
Sure enough, when Stephen heard that it was not available outside, his face was full of disappointment.
Xu Nanxing is considering the possibility of opening a fast food restaurant in Hong Kong.
This idea died immediately after she exchanged the money into Hong Kong dollars and left the bank.
Not long after she left the bank and turned two corners, she saw a group of people chasing the people in front of them.
If the people chasing her hadn't all been holding a knife, she would have thought it was just a simple gang fight.
But with weapons in hand, isn't this just a gang fight?
This could cost lives!
It was not until then that Xu Nanxing truly realized that he had traveled back to the 1970s, a time of chaotic public security under the rule of the British Hong Kong government.
Many people in later generations have seen a very famous series of Hong Kong movies called "Young and Dangerous"!
And the theme song "Years of Friendship" from the movie "Young and Dangerous I" is still being sung on the Internet?
It feels enjoyable when watching the movie, but it feels scary when you are actually there!
Anyone would be scared if they saw people hacking each other every day, right?
That movie was from the 90s!
Public security in the 1970s will only get worse!
Maybe you will even need to pay protection fees or something like that!
Xu Nanxing immediately gave up the idea of opening a store in Hong Kong. She was too lazy to go through so much trouble just to earn so much hard-earned money!
There are many places to make money, just think about it slowly!
Xu Nanxing put the matter aside and went straight to the nearest breakfast shop.
How can you feel full with just an egg burger?
Xu Nanxing found a Hong Kong-style tea restaurant. It was already past the breakfast peak, and most of the people sitting inside were elderly people, who were leisurely eating breakfast and drinking lemon tea. Some were sitting there reading newspapers, and the waiters were also watching TV leisurely.
Xu Nanxing took a look at the TV. It was a color TV, which was replaying the previous horse racing results!
Yes!
Horse racing is popular in Hong Kong!
Since you are in Hong Kong, how can you not go and have a look!
If she gets a chance, she'll go to the racecourse and buy a few betting tickets to see how her luck is!
Xu Nanxing walked into the tea restaurant, found an empty seat and sat down.
I looked at the menu on the desktop, uh, it’s all in traditional Chinese!
She learned Cantonese quickly, but it's still at the elementary level, so she can only use it for daily communication, which means she can only listen and speak!
Looking at these traditional Chinese characters, especially many of the colloquial characters in Hong Kong, I really can't understand them at first.
Especially the headline that says “Three dollars and fifty cents for a bowl of pork belly rice”!
Looking at the detailed menu at the back, the first one is: "Curry Beef Brisket Rice, 3.5 yuan".
All right!
I think you guys have figured out the abbreviation!
However, she had never heard of the names of some of the dishes mentioned later.
However, after taking a look at the prices, most of them range from 3 to 4 yuan.
This price is so cheap!
Then what else is there to consider!
Just order a few more things!
Xu Nanxing didn't hesitate, called the waiter, and pointed at more than a dozen dishes on the menu, "I want all of these, I want to take them away!"
The waiter was surprised at first that the little girl ordered so much, but when he heard that she wanted to take the food away, he thought she was going to take it home for her family, so he didn't say much and directly wrote the menu and took it to the kitchen.
While Xu Nanxing was waiting for the food, she glanced at the newspaper held at the next table and saw that many of the headlines contained words she could not understand.
Or even if you understand the words, you still need to guess what the whole sentence means.
It seems that Cantonese needs to be learned to the intermediate level. Xu Nanxing opened the skill tree, found Cantonese, and directly spent 10 contribution points to learn Cantonese to the intermediate level.
After digesting the relevant knowledge in his brain, Xu Nanxing looked at the menu in his hand again and was able to tell at a glance what dishes were written on it.
Looking at the newspaper again, she understood the headline at a glance.
The table next to him had already turned a page of the newspaper. Xu Nanxing was surprised to find that the newspapers in Hong Kong were very impressive. They even had serialized four-frame comics - "Old Master Q" and "Friends".
The font used for the comic title is also cartoon-like.
Xu Nanxing never expected that in the 1970s, newspapers in Hong Kong had already achieved this level.
However, if you think about it, there was a subway in Britain in the mid-19th century and it had been in operation for more than 100 years.
Oh, by the way, the first subway in Hong Kong was also built in the last century, which is almost 100 years ago.
Considering that China was still in the feudal period of the Qing Dynasty at that time, this contrast really makes people feel a bit dreamy!
My dear, there is more to this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. It will be even more exciting later!
