As the elevator door opened again, Gao Ning and Arun walked out of the elevator and came to a huge square. The scene before them made Arun's eyes widen in shock.
"They built a food court inside the ship?"
In front of us is a food street with the characteristics of all ethnic groups. Whether it is the architectural style of the store or the text on the signboard, it is full of exotic customs.
The two saw several Chinese signs at first glance, and then they discovered English, Japanese, Thai, and some random words.
Although the boat has just sailed and most of the tourists are wandering around, there are definitely a lot of tourists here. The various fragrances wafting in the air are definitely a great tool to attract crowds.
Within a few seconds while the two stood there and observed the surrounding environment, the elevator behind them kept opening and closing, and more and more tourists came out.
Arun's eyes were bright and her interest in shopping reached its highest point. She took Gao Ning's hand and walked towards the most familiar Chinese signboard.
Mapo tofu!
Seeing the name of a dish written on the imitation Chinese-style store sign, Gao Ning couldn't help but twitch at the corner of his eye.
But for these ghost guys, Mapo Tofu is obviously more famous than Ju Xialou and so on.
Although the signboard name is rather fantasy, judging from the smell in the air, the various dishes are quite authentic, but have a slightly southern taste.
Of course, China has a vast land and rich resources, and it is understandable that the tastes are different.
When in town, do as the Romans do!
Chinese cuisine has been completely changed since it arrived in the United States. It is very rare to be able to maintain your own taste on a cruise ship.
The two of them were just surprised at Mapo Tofu. They glanced through the wooden window at the large Eight Immortals tables inside and the waiters in white shirts and black vests who were completely inconsistent with the atmosphere. Then they walked straight past and headed towards the next store. go.
The entire facade of this store is dark, and the inside looks like a kiln where coal is burned. If it weren't for the lights, it would look like it was not cut out. The signboard is very neat, but the words on it are completely incomprehensible.
A fat black aunt wearing distinctive clothes squatted next to a huge jar, busy, and from time to time she took out a handful of green and sticky stuff and slapped it on the iron plate next to her.
Along with the sound of water vapor, a strange sweet smell spread out.
The assistant in the same costume next to him quickly held up a stick and pounded the ordinary round cake into crumbs, then mixed a miso-colored substance, put it in a dark bowl, and placed it on the shelf, waiting for sale.
After all, Gao Ning came from a later generation, and had experienced the devastation of delicacies from various countries on the Xiaopo Station. He knew a little bit about weird or unique things, especially Asan's so-called delicacies, and he paid special attention to them.
But he looked left and right to see what this thing was.
But it’s definitely from Africa.
The two of them did not stop and continued to wander down.
The entire food street is built in a U-shaped corridor. You only need to keep walking forward to see all the stores.
The two passed by a bunch of strange food shops that were familiar, unfamiliar, known, or unknown, and finally came to a store with a strong smell of meat and standard Arabic signboards on both sides.
The uncle who greeted guests at the door was dressed exactly like Afanti. He was holding a small flag in his hand, stroking his upturned beard and shaking it from side to side.
Arun looked at him for a long time and couldn't help but smile and said to Gao Ning: "This person is so strange!"
Gao Ning smiled but didn't respond, pulling Arun directly into the shop.
Barbecue is quite attractive. Compared to those weird and unknown foods, the taste of meat is generally recognized.
Therefore, there are obviously a lot more customers in the barbecue restaurant than in other restaurants.
The two found a seat and sat down. The waiter in a black vest quickly brought a menu. Gao Ning lowered his head and saw that it was in English!
That’s right, if the menu is in Arabic, few people will be able to understand it.
The waiter is a white guy in his early twenties, but judging from his manners and tone of voice, he should be from a small country in Northern Europe.
He greeted the two of them with some respect, and in the subsequent simple exchange, he recommended two special foods.
Arun followed the good advice and directly accepted the recommendation. By the way, he also ordered two cans of special grape juice. It is said that it is produced in the desert and has a unique taste.
Gao Ning is incompetent.
After sending away the waiter, Arun couldn't help but think of the couple he met in the elevator.
"Honey, Mr. Fei seems to be a very gentleman. Ordinary businessmen don't have this kind of temperament. What do you think he does?"
Gao Ning smiled: "Let me guess? I guess these two people are conmen!"
"Ah?" Arun's eyes were blank.
"I just have this feeling!" Gao Ning said.
Arun became interested: "Why do you say that?"
Gao Ning thought for a while: "Don't you think their behavior is a little too deliberate? We have just boarded the ship, and everyone is unfamiliar with them. They are so enthusiastic when they meet for the first time, which makes people feel a little uncomfortable!"
Arun said doubtfully: "I don't think so!"
"The friendship between you women is very strange. You can become good friends because of a word, or you can turn into enemies because of a look. But men are different. Usually, it is a tentative contact, from shallow to deep, which is naturally very important! "
"It seems a little strange to show that you want to make friends right from the start!"
Speaking of this, Gao Ning paused for a moment: "Of course, this may be Mr. Fei's deliberate display, thinking that it may be a reverse operation, causing us to deliberately alienate them!"
Arun was a little confused: "Can it still be like this?"
"After all, given your age, you should have rich experience in social situations and know what kind of behavior can achieve what kind of effect.
And on this kind of cruise ship where the guests are either rich or expensive, the reverse operation may get better results! "
The more Gao Ning talked, the more he felt it was possible.
While talking, the waiter brought the food up with a large tray.
The two immediately forgot about Mr. Fei and his wife.
No matter who they are, it’s important to fill their stomachs first.
At the same time, Mr. Fei and his wife, who were wearing the most standard smiles, were walking in the casino.
"What you just acted... was a little exaggerated! Did you do it on purpose?" Susan asked casually while looking at the surrounding tables and considering which game to choose as the opening.
Mr. Fei's face no longer had the warm spring smile before, and he said expressionlessly: "You always have to be careful in situations like this! Besides, our purpose this time is different from the previous one, so naturally we have to do something Change!"
"It's up to you! Just don't disturb my mood!"
Susan chuckled lightly, let go of Mr. Fei's elbow, and turned towards a stage.
Mr. Fei stood there, looked at her twice, and walked in another direction.
