A Mouthful of Sky-high Fried Rice, Lao Tang Apprenticed on the Spot Chapter 60

  Chapter 60 Farmers Market

  Li Yi got up early in the morning.

  After washing up, he went straight to Wu Lei's room and rang the doorbell.

  Wu Lei, who was holding a chicken nest head, opened the door and saw Li Yi who was dressed neatly outside. He looked at the time again, and was a little confused: "Brother Yi, it's only five o'clock! Didn't we say we were going to leave at six o'clock?"

"yes!"

  Li Yi nodded: "It's five o'clock, it's time to get up, and the sun should come out soon."

   "No, bro, it's too early for you, isn't it?"

  Wu Lei has a black line all over his head.

   "Is it still early?"

  Li Yi looked at him: "Don't you still want to run? Come back from the run, pack up, and just start."

   "Brother, we don't record a show today, so there's no need to get up so early, right?"

  Wu Lei covered his eyes and moaned.

   "Don't go to the vegetable market early? If you go late, the good dishes will be picked out by others."

  Li Yi raised his chin at him: "Go wash up, I'll call Zhao Jinmai and the others, and we will meet downstairs in ten minutes."

   After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked towards the elevator entrance.

  Zhao Jinmai and Liu Yifei both live on the 22nd floor.

   Right after waking up, he sent messages to Zhao Jinmai and Liu Yifei.

  Zhao Jinmai replied to the message saying that she would get up soon, but Liu Yifei did not reply, nor did she answer the phone call.

   When Liu Yifei came back last night, she heard that they were going to visit the farmer's market, and she also expressed that she wanted to go together.

   But looking at it like this, she may not be able to get up!

  But she promised her, so naturally she has to call, whether to go or not is her business.

   Soon, Li Yi found Liu Yifei's room.

   After ringing the doorbell, he took out his mobile phone and sent another message to Liu Yifei: "Are you awake? Are you still going today?"

   There was no reply, but after a while, the door clicked open a crack.

   "Who is it?"

   Liu Yifei's confused voice came from the crack of the door.

"I."

  Li Yi asked: "Last night, we agreed to go to the farmer's market at six o'clock, do you still want to go?"

   "Go, do you want to go now?"

   Liu Yifei's voice was dizzy, apparently she hadn't woken up at all.

   "Depart at six o'clock, I'll call you in advance, get up, wash up, put on makeup or something."

   "Then I'll go downstairs at 5:50 and sleep for a while."

  Liu Yifei said something in a daze.

   "Leave some time to wash and put on makeup, the program crew will have a camera follow-up."

  Li Yi reminded.

   "No more, isn't this a reality show? Can't it be more real?"

  Liu Yifei covered her mouth and yawned, then waved her hands: "Bye bye, see you later."

  After speaking, she closed the door, went back to sleep and returned to the cage.

  She didn't talk nonsense. After Li Yi and Wu Lei came back from running, she really went downstairs with her face up to the sky, and waited with Zhao Jinmai in the lobby.

  In order to prevent her eyes from being dull, she wore sunglasses, but she didn't wear them for the time being, and put them on her head.

  The cameraman who followed was the same one from yesterday, surnamed Cai, who was asked by Wu Kaiyuan to take some footage.

  He drove the car of the program team, and after Li Yi and Wu Lei had a quick shower, he dragged them straight to the FT area.

  In the car, Wu Lei, who was sweating all over and took a shower, was full of energy. He looked out the window curiously, and evaluated every car on the road like a few treasures.

  In the back seat, Liu Yifei put her arms around Zhao Jinmai's neck, and the two snuggled together to catch up on sleep, and didn't wake up until they reached their destination.

  The destination of Li Yi and his group is the Xinfadi Agricultural Products Wholesale Market in FT District.

  Xinfadi is the largest agricultural product wholesale market in Beijing, and it used to be the number one in the country.

  It covers an area of ​​more than 1,500 mu, and ordinary people may not be able to finish shopping in a day.

  There are more than 5,000 fixed stalls here, as long as it is agricultural and sideline products, you can buy it here.

  Including Li Yi, this group of people came here for the first time.

  The farmers market in the early morning is the busiest time of the day.

   Countless carts pulling vegetables, fruits, seeds, grain and oil, meat, aquatic products, non-staple food, spices, poultry eggs, tea and other goods are busy unloading their goods.

   Small trucks are busy loading goods onto the trucks and transporting them to every corner of the city.

  No one here pays attention to any celebrities. After seeing Wu Lei and the others, at most they just glanced curiously, and then continued to busy themselves with the work at hand.

  Standing in the bustling crowd and cars, Liu Yifei and Zhao Jinmai were completely awake.

"Wow!"

  Zhao Jinmai looked at a truck full of scallions, and sighed dumbfounded: "I've never seen so many scallions in my life! How many people would it take to finish it?"

  Li Yi smiled: "How many people are there in the capital? With just this few onions, one is not enough for everyone."

   As he spoke, he stepped forward to the unloading place behind the car, picked up a bundle of scallions, and looked at it.

  When Boss Che saw him, he asked in Shandong dialect: "Authentic Zhangqiu scallions, can you get some?"

  Li Yi smiled when he heard the words, put down the scallions and said, "Isn't this the hard-leaf scallion from Shouguang? How did it become Zhangqiu scallions?"

  Boss Che was a little surprised when he called out the place of origin of the onion in one bite, and then laughed: "You know how to do it? It's Shouguang onion, how about some?"

  Li Yi shook his head: "I want Zhang Qiucong, do you have any friends?"

"have."

  The owner of the car nodded and pointed him in the direction: "A little brother in my village pulled a car, let it go there! Go and have a look."

   "Thanks!"

   Li Yi thanked him, then turned around and signaled to Wu Lei and the others: "Go, go and have a look over there."

  Wu Lei heard the conversation between him and the owner of the car, followed him quickly, and asked curiously: "Brother Yi, how do you know that is not Zhang Qiucong?"

  Li Yi explained casually: "The variety of Zhangqiu scallion is called Dawutong, and it can grow up to 2.65 meters. The onion just now is at most one meter, and the leaves are short and hard. It is a typical Shouguang hard-leaved onion.

  Scallions with hard leaves are hardy to freeze, so they are better for long-term storage and long-distance transportation, but their taste is not as good as that of Zhangqiu green onions. They are often used in ordinary restaurants, but I don't use them very much. "

"I see."

  Wu Lei nodded half-understanding: "I didn't expect to pay so much attention to buying green onions."

   "If you don't pay attention, how can you achieve the ultimate taste?"

   Soon, Li Yi took Wu Lei and the others to find the Che Zhangqiu Scallion.

  The scallions on the cart really belonged to Zhangqiu. The scallions were white, long and tall.

  But Li Yi didn't buy it, he just left a contact information, then turned and left.

  He came here this time to familiarize himself with the environment in advance.

  It's better to do it first, so as not to be in a hurry when I go back to the official recording program.

  Liu Yifei and Zhao Jinmai followed behind Li Yi, looking around curiously.

  The white shoes on their feet have already splashed the sewage on the ground, and there are many mud spots.

   But they don't care.

  It was the first time for them to enter such a large farmers market.

  The informal environment and rough style here make them very novel.

   "What a fresh tomato!"

  Zhao Jinmai saw a cart full of tomatoes being unloaded.

   Baskets of tomatoes are pink and plump, looking very nice.

  She couldn't help but stepped forward and asked the boss: "Can I buy two catties?"

  Seeing her approaching to talk, Li Yi followed and asked her, "Do you want to buy tomatoes?"

   "I want to buy some."

  Zhao Jinmai nodded: "I really like eating tomatoes. These tomatoes look so fresh. I want to buy them back and eat them as fruits."

  Li Yi glanced at the tomatoes, shook his head and said, "These are tomatoes for cooking, they won't taste good for nothing."

   As he spoke, he dragged Zhao Jinmai to the back of a nearby cart.

  This large truck is also unloading tomatoes, but the tomatoes in this truck are darker in color, and there are scars growing from the roots on the surface, and some of them have cracks.

   "Boss, give me two catties."

   Li Yi greeted the owner of the car, and brought a plastic bag over by himself, picked a few tomatoes and put them in the bag.

  The potbellied car owner was greeting customers who drove over to load, and he didn't bother to talk to him at all.

  After Li Yi installed it, the owner of the car weighed it for him casually, and quoted a price: "Fifteen."

After paying the money, Li Yi took out a tomato with scars on the root from the bag. When he broke it lightly, the tomato split open, revealing the slightly white, sandy flesh inside, wrapped in gold like jelly. Seed capsules of yellow seeds.

  Handed half to Zhao Jinmai and half to Liu Yifei. Li Yi signaled: "This is a tomato from the Western Regions Province. It's sweeter. Try it."

  Zhao Jinmai took the tomato, lowered his head and took a bite, his eyes widened immediately: "Oh! It's really sweet!"
