Today, Paul Allen did not eat anything again. In the afternoon, the smell of durian lingers in Feng Yu and the rest’s mouth. He could not stand the smell and ended his inspection early. Luckily, today is only smell, and he is hungry in the evenings.
But this time, Paul Allen did not call for room service. He told his Translator to buy a bowl of instant noodles and some biscuits for him. He would rather eat instant noodles and biscuits than eat with Feng Yu!
The Translator thought to himself. There are no problems with today’s lunch, other than the stinky tofu chicken stew. The rest of the dishes are delicious, especially the bamboo rats. The texture is about the same as chicken and is tasty.
Also, the century eggs are terrific with some vinegar and green peppers.
The durian at the end of the meal is the best. Durian is the king of fruits and is nutritious. Although the smell is not very pleasant, it tastes great.
The wine they drank during lunch does not have any snakes or insects soaked in it. It’s all Chinese herbs, and the Translator only managed to drink a few sips.
You don’t know how to enjoy the delicacies and prefer to eat instant noodles?!
It’s so hard to understand wealthy people.
But Paul Allen had given the translator 100 USD, and the Translator still went to buy instant noodles for him.
What instant noodles should I buy? I should get the best instant noodles in China, which is Lehaha’s instant noodle. Anyway, it’s only slightly more expensive than Kang Shifu.
……
“Feng, there must be some more special dishes in China. We should let Paul try some tomorrow.” Kirilenko said.
Kirilenko is overjoyed when he saw Paul Allen rushing out to puke during the previous two days.
“There is a type of snack in Fujian called Dried Rats. Do you dare to try?”
“What meat is it made from? Bamboo rats? Is it delicious?” Kirilenko asked excitedly.
“I had not tried it before and do not know if it is nice. Dried Rats are made from rat meat. It’s the grey rats you find in the sewers.” Feng Yu replied with an evil smile.
This time, even the greedy Kirilenko’s face changed. How can sewer rats be eaten? He had tried the ‘Three cries’ once and decided never to eat any rats or mice in the future.
Kirilenko looks at the rest and everyone, including Duan Yongping, shook their heads. Indicating that they will not eat this snack.
Kirilenko laughed. “Err… I can’t help you with this, as I will also not eat it.”
Kirilenko said he will not eat it, and not he is scared to eat it. But to Feng Yu, Kirilenko is scared.
“There is a special dish which is pufferfish. It is extremely poisonous, and if you accidentally ate the poison, you would die for sure. But It’s hard to get a chef in China to prepare it. Do you want to try?”
Kirilenko shook his head. This concerns his life, and he is not willing to take any risks. He still wants to enjoy his life, and why should he risk it for some food. There are tons of good food out there, and he can skip this one.
Fu Guangzheng interrupted Feng Yu. The hair on his back is standing from the food Feng Yu mentioned.
“Brother Feng, will Allen leave tomorrow?”
Feng Yu shook his head. “I don’t know, but I think he will not accept our invitation to lunch or dinner anymore. If he does not leave tomorrow, we will think of other ways.”
Feng Yu felt good after pranking Paul Allen.
“I think he will not dare to create any problems for us. This is China, and we have ways to deal with him. Just because he is rich, he thinks he can look down on us?! Hmph!” Fu Guangwei shouted.
“I had thought of drinking with him, but I can tell he cannot hold his liquor. We have so many different types of liquor today, and he doesn’t even want to try it. Such a waste!” Kirilenko said.
To Kirilenko, one must try all the liquor in the world when there is a chance. Life will be meaningless if there is no alcohol!
Of course, it will be perfect if there are women after drinking!
Kirilenko asked. “What are we eating tonight? I’m hungry.”
Feng Yu: “……” You had eaten the most in the afternoon, and you are hungry now?!
The few of them went out for dinner, and Paul Allen’s Translator returned to the hotel with a bowl of instant noodles.
“Mr. Allen, this is ham. A type of canned meat made from beef. You should try it.”
Paul Allen took a few bites and felt it taste good. Maybe it was because of his hunger, and everything tastes good to him.
“Where is it produce? I would want to buy some of these back as gifts.” Paul Allen said.
The Translator was surprised and asked. “This is produced by Manager Feng’s father’s company. Don’t you know it?”
“Who? Feng’s father’s company? What trash is this?! It tastes awful! Don’t ever buy this thing again!” Paul Allen threw the remaining cans of ham into the bin.
Hmph! This is produced by Feng’s family. Who knows if he added rat’s meat or insects in it?
The Translator looks at Paul Allen speechlessly. You were eating it just fine and still want to buy some back as gifts.
This instant noodle is produced by Lehaha, and Manager Feng is one of the shareholders. Should I tell Mr. Allen about it?
Paul Allen ate a few mouthfuls of noodles and felt its tasty. But he also noticed the weird expression on his Translator’s face.
Paul Allen looks down on the packaging of the noodle. All the wordings are in Chinese, which he doesn’t understand.
But the cartoon figure printed on the packaging seems very familiar to Paul Allen. He felt he had seen this cartoon figure somewhere.
Paul Allen took another mouthful and coughed suddenly. He recalled where he saw this cartoon figure. It’s on the energy drink can. Microsoft engineers love this energy drink, called Qi Li.
Paul remembered that the beverage is also produced by Feng Yu’s company. That means this instant noodle is also produced by Feng Yu’s company.
“Is this instant noodle produced by Feng’s company?”
The Translator nodded. I did not say anything, and you are the one who guessed it correctly.
Thum!
Paul Allen threw the bowl of instant noodles into the bin.
Paul had seen some black colored stuff in the seasoning package of the instant noodles earlier. Maybe those are made from bugs!
Paul quickly opened a bottle a distilled water and noticed that cartoon figure after taking a few sips!
This water cannot be drunk!
How can there be no other companies producing food in China?
Paul Allen saw some beverages on the table. He was about to drink it when he saw that irritating cartoon figure printed on it!
The Translator looks at Paul Allen, throwing that packet of Lehaha’s milk tea into the bin and doesn’t know what to do. The best food product brand in China is Lehaha. If you want to eat or drink anything from Lehaha, you should have told me earlier.
After throwing everything into the bin, Paul Allen realized no food is left on the table. But… he is still hungry.
Paul gritted his teeth as he would rather starve to death than to eat these things!
Translator’s notes: Century eggs and durians are my favorite.
