The restaurant Long Jiu was talking about is in a dark alley at the front of this commercial street. The name of the restaurant is "Snacks". It was renovated from a self-built small building. It was also modified to be quite distinctive. The walls were spray-painted. The azure brick wall was replaced with a deliberately aged color, and the main entrance was changed into a dark red mansion door. On both sides of the door, there squatted a stone lion as tall as one person.
On the ebony plaque, the word "Snacks" is written in large gilded characters, which looks very period.
The three friends were led by Long Jiu into the dark alley. After turning left and right, they saw this restaurant. Their first reaction was to be shocked. There are very few restaurants of this style even on many developed planets. You see, even if there is one, it is the kind of private restaurant that is expensive and requires reservation in advance.
But how did Long Jiu introduce them to them before?
It seems to be of high quality and low price? !
Han Jiaojiao doubtfully grabbed Long Jiu, who was walking at the front, and asked in disbelief: "Hey, are you sure this is a cheap restaurant? I'm worried that the combined wallets of the four of us won't be enough to eat here. Suddenly."
Long Jiu patted her paw and said firmly: "Don't worry, this is really a store with very affordable prices. Don't be intimidated by the style of this store."
Although Long Jiu said this, the three friends around him still felt suspicious.
It was actually past dinner time, but there seemed to be a lot of customers in the store. When Long Jiu and the four of them entered, there were still six or seven tables of customers in the lobby on the first floor, and at a glance, every table had The guests were either wearing military uniforms or training uniforms.
There was a strong-looking man sitting behind the counter in front, but this man seemed to be busy settling accounts, so he didn't look up when Long Jiu and the other two came in.
There are very few waiters in the store. Occasionally, one or two waiters can be seen coming out of the back kitchen with plates, and even the waiters are strong men with a height of nearly two meters.
These waiters would also joke with the guests when they were serving food to the tables. When the guests at the next few tables saw them, they would also invite them to sit down and have a drink. Obviously, the waiters here were talking to the guests who came to the restaurant to eat. They are very familiar, and you can tell from their chatting and laughing that their familiarity is not that these customers are regular customers, but that they know each other personally.
Just as Long Jiu and the others were looking around, a lady came down from the stairs facing the door.
This lady is wearing an extremely retro red cheongsam. Under the cheongsam are large blooming peony flowers. Such retro cheongsam is really rare in this era, but she wears it with the charm of that ancient era. Come.
The sound of high heels on the wooden ladder finally caught the attention of the strong man behind the counter. The strong man looked up, and when he saw the woman, he immediately gave a simple and honest smile, "The boss lady is down."
The landlady's long hair was tied back by a white jade hairpin, which made her neck look even longer and fairer. She was holding on to the handrail beside the wooden ladder with one hand, and holding a long and thin retro cigarette rod in the other hand. After hearing the strong man's words, the proprietress who had lowered her head and looked seriously at her feet suddenly raised her head and looked over with a smile.
However, the proprietress did not immediately respond to the strong man's words. Her narrow phoenix eyes turned and her gaze fell on the four of Long Jiu. The original smile on her face suddenly became more dignified, and then she raised her voice like a spring breeze. sounded.
"Lao Gou, a guest is here and you didn't pay attention?"
If it weren't for the fact that the landlady's voice was smiling and really pleasant, Long Jiu and the other three would have mistakenly thought that her first sentence was a curse.
Old...dog?
Are you really not swearing?
The strong man named Lao Gou suddenly looked embarrassed. After muttering something under his breath, he immediately stood up and greeted Long Jiu and the four of them. With a smile that could scare a child to tears, he asked with a smile: "Who are the four of you?" How about eating? Do you want to sit downstairs or upstairs?"
Long Jiu said without thinking, "Upstairs."
The last time she came here with Xiao Tingyun, she sat upstairs, but the last time she came here to eat, she didn't meet the beautiful proprietress.
Originally, the strong man wanted to take Long Jiu and the others upstairs in person, but before he moved, the proprietress who was still standing on the stairs took the initiative and said: "I'll take the four of you upstairs, Lao Gou, you watch." under."

Long Jiu didn't care who led the way, but she would be happier if the boss's wife took the lead. After all, the boss's wife was beautiful and she was a pretty girl.
It's just that the landlady took the four of them upstairs and took them directly to the box. She didn't call the waiter during the whole process. The landlady served them personally all the time. Even when Long Jiu and the others were ordering, He also thoughtfully gave a lot of recommendations.
After they finished ordering, the proprietress took the menu and went out to place the order. As soon as she left, the friends who had been holding back for a while suddenly started gossiping.
Han Jiaojiao: "Wow! The boss lady is so beautiful, and the skirt she is wearing is also very beautiful!"
Long Jiu glanced at her sideways, "That's called a cheongsam."
Han Jiaojiao didn't care whether it was a cheongsam or a skirt. She held her face in her hands and said, "It looks really good. I want to buy one too."
Long Jiu glanced at her again, "Don't dream. That cheongsam is handmade at first glance, and the material is not ordinary. Did you see the peony flowers on it? They were all hand-embroidered stitch by stitch. She alone That piece of cheongsam is enough for you to buy a house in today's world."
Classmate Han Jiaojiao, who originally wanted to buy one of the same style, was suddenly shocked and her eyes widened, "Is it so expensive?"
In fact, considering the family background of Han Jiaojiao and the others, it is not impossible for them to afford a cheongsam worth a house, but Han Jiaojiao and Zhou Xinyu are both thrifty, so even if they could afford it, they would not be able to afford it. Reluctant to part with it.
Long Jiu held the scented tea given by the landlady and sipped it while saying: "Well, it must be even more expensive, and the jade bracelet on the landlady's wrist is made of Laokeng glass with imperial green color, and it is still an antique of a certain era. There is also the white jade hairpin on her head, which is the best mutton-fat white jade, and is also an antique from a certain era. And the pearl necklace around her neck, each one is plump and round, is the best Dongzhu. The ones on her ears The earrings should be a set with the bracelet on her wrist."
The three friends were completely stunned. It felt like the landlady was walking around in the streets with several large villas on her. They were large villas in the expensive places like the imperial capital of Xinghuang City.
Zhou Xinyu quickly held the cup and took a sip of scented tea to calm herself down, "I am already wearing several large villas on my body, how can I open a restaurant on the Red Rock Star?"
"There must be a story." Li Muchuan said thoughtfully: "When I first saw this landlady, I felt that there must be a story about her."
The four friends were very curious about the proprietress, and the proprietress who was curious about them also pushed the door open and came in at this time, holding two plates of freshly baked snacks in her hands.
"These are the special snacks in our store, golden bird's nest cake and sweet osmanthus cheese." The lady boss put two plates of snacks on the table, looked at the four of them with a smile, and said, "You are new customers, so these two plates of snacks are Extra gift from our store.”
For native interstellar humans, these two plates of snacks are very novel just by hearing the names, let alone smelling them and they are delicious.
Zhou Xinyu was sweet-tongued and had a social awkwardness, so she immediately thanked her and said, "Thank you, boss lady. She is really a kind-hearted person. No wonder the business is so prosperous."
Han Jiaojiao also has a social arrogance that is not inferior to Zhou Xinyu's, and then praised: "It must be delicious just by smelling it, and the name of the snack is also nice."
The landlady was amused by them, she narrowed her eyes and said, "They are really two sweet-tongued little girls."
Zhou Xinyu, who was sweet-mouthed, turned her eyes and looked curiously at the slender cigarette rod in the hands of the landlady. She had seen this thing when she was downstairs, but she just didn't know what it was used for. Now she saw the landlady. He was a nice person and talkative, so he asked curiously: "Madam boss, can I ask what that thing is in your hand?"
The proprietress handed the cigarette pole in her hand to them and asked with a smile: "Is this one?"
Zhou Xinyu nodded quickly. The landlady smiled and turned her gaze to the other three people and asked, "Don't you know too?"
Han Jiaojiao shook his head, Li Muchuan also shook his head, and finally the landlady looked at Long Jiu.
Long Jiu sighed helplessly in his heart, as if he thought his friends were three illiterate people, "It's just a cigarette stick."
Smoking was not banned in the interstellar age, but the cigarettes in this era are different from the cigarettes in the previous earth age. Today's cigarettes are all a type called gold leaf (this chapter is not finished yet!)

The mint plant replaces tobacco and is harmless to the human body. However, smoking it can make people feel a little excited, which is very refreshing.
Cigarettes are no longer the same as before. Thinking back to the ancient times, the cigarette sticks have naturally withdrawn from the stage of history. Not many interstellar humans today have seen such cigarette sticks.
Long Jiu gave the correct answer and received a compliment from the proprietress: "It seems that Xiaojiujiu is good at learning history."
The proprietress's voice came out, but Long Jiu and the other four were all stunned.
This is... recognize Longjiujiu?
Long Jiu looked at the landlady in astonishment, but the latter was not surprised by her reaction. Instead, he looked at her with a smile and said gently: "It's normal for Xiaojiujiu not to remember me. The last time I saw you, you were only three years old."
Three years old......
That was the year that Long Jiujiu's parents had an accident.
Long Jiu looked at the gentle look in the landlady's eyes and realized belatedly that she had seen this kind of look in Duan Lishu's eyes before.
Therefore, it is very likely that this landlady, like Duan Lishu, has a close relationship with Long Jiujiu's parents.
Sure enough, the boss lady said slowly: "I used to be your father's wingman, you can also call it your partner."
