C6 Clear and Smooth
The plane slowly slid down onto the track of Sanya's Phoenix International Airport. When the plane landed, Chen Tianming saw through the glass window that Hainan Island was lying on the flat surface like a pear in the middle of the blue sea.
Hainan Island was a beautiful and rich island with a long history. It was the "corridor" between Hainan Island and the mainland, and also the sea transportation channel between the northern bay and the south sea. Due to the proximity of the mainland, in addition, the mountain range within the island was majestic, and its five fingers were as tall as the sky. Therefore, whenever the weather was sunny and cloudless, he would stand on the southern coast of Leizhou Peninsula and look into the distance. They could vaguely see Hainan Island.
Hai Nan Island was a place where flowers bloomed at four hours. It had a long summer and no winter. The climate was special. The average temperature of the year was around 24 degrees, which was the top of the country.
When he got off the plane, Xu Zuyuan had a special car to pick him up. Therefore, Chen Tianming said goodbye to Xu Zuyuan. The short trip in the air made the old and young pair of interesting friends. Xu Zuyuan said that he would not leave Hainan for a short period of time, so he left an address for Chen Tianming. He asked Chen Tianming to visit him when he had time, and after Chen Tianming agreed, Xu Zuyuan seemed very happy.
After bidding farewell to Xu Zuyuan, this new "old" friend, Chen Tianming also walked out of the waiting hall.
Chen Tianming spent 20 Yan Huang coins and directly sat on the bus to the downtown area. The journey from the Sanya Phoenix International Airport to the downtown area of Sanya was about 30 minutes. Along the way, the coconut trees filled Chen Tianming's heart with a sense of novelty, and his eyes had never been idle along the way.
It was not too late in the afternoon when they arrived at the downtown area of Sanya. Chen Tianming found a cheap three-star hotel and stayed there. Of course, it wasn't that Chen Tianming couldn't afford a five-star hotel. It was just that he was used to living a life of poverty. He didn't like to spend money recklessly, but in a tourist attraction like Hainan, even if it was a hotel, the price was very high. Chen Tianming could choose to stay in a three-star hotel because he didn't want to mistreat his grandmother. His grandmother's ashes were still in Chen Tianming's luggage, and Chen Tianming couldn't possibly bring an urn with him when he went out.
Chen Tianming carefully took out his grandmother's urn from his luggage and placed it on the bedside cabinet. After quietly worshipping her for a while, Chen Tianming began to pack his luggage.
After he had settled his luggage, it was time for dinner. There would naturally be a place for dinner in the hotel. However, Chen Tianming had just arrived in a fresh place like Hainan. He should at least try the local specialty seafood.
At night,chen Tian was obviously very simple. He wore a T-shirt. A pair of faded jeans and an Adidas bag. In Hainan, unlike Beijing, people had already put on slightly thicker coats. However,hainan was different. In a place like Hainan where the four seasons were like summer, wearing a T-shirt was already enough, and Adidas' bag was given to him by Xiao Xiao. Chen Tianming himself would not spend money to buy a bag with a brand.
At this moment, Chen Tianming seemed a little excited. Although his grandmother had just passed away, he was still a slightly older child. The pain could not hide the natural childishness of a child.
He had changed from his usual coldness. Even Chen Tianming himself did not know about his transformation. It was probably because he knew that his parents still loved him very much that his cold heart had completely melted.
After leaving the inn, Chen Tianming found the bus station closest to the inn.
There was no fixed destination. Chen Tianming just went wherever he went. For him, everything in Hainan was new, so he chose to take the bus.
Sitting on the bus 202, Chen Tianming also asked the passengers where there were better seafood restaurants. The passengers on the bus were quite enthusiastic, as if the customs here were like this. Therefore, the passenger gave detailed instructions. After asking for directions, Chen Tianming was able to find a lot more.
When he got off the bus at the Grand Time Hotel, Chen Tianming walked back for more than 20 meters. He saw that Mascot Street turned another 50 meters to the left and came to a large fence at the top of the circle. There were a lot of big blocks like this along the way, but it was indeed very rare to see a street like this. This Ming Yuan large row was not very well equipped, but there were surprisingly many customers. So the boss added a lot of tables outside.
A waiter saw Chen Tianming from afar and immediately ran to Chen Tianming. He pulled Chen Tianming's arm and dragged him into the shed, then picked up a Mandarin with a strong Hainan accent. Chen Tianming rolled his eyes at Chen Tianming and frowned when he heard him. This was the first time he had met someone who wanted to do business like this. One should know that in the past, Chen Tianming rarely came into contact with outsiders.
Of course, although Chen Tianming was a little disgusted, he still understood the waiter's words. Nodding slightly, the waiter happily ran back and said something to the boss. The boss was also very happy, so he quickly came out and made some arrangements. A big stall like this... Usually, the boss also did the work of the waiter. Very soon, the boss and the waiter moved a small folding table and placed it next to the dome. Chen Tianming casually took a plastic chair and sat down. There were a few large round tables near Chen Tianming's table. On the big round table, there was the sound of drinking and drinking. It was very noisy.
Although Chen Tianming, who always liked to be quiet, was not used to it, he did not dislike it. After all, Chen Tianming's mentality was gradually changing, and he was also constantly changing. He kept opening the window in his heart, which had been closed for a long time, and accepting the people around him. As he accepted the world around him, his heart gradually began to yearn for the people around him. He yearned for the vast world outside.
The boss came to Chen Tianming's table with a smile on his face. He enthusiastically introduced his dishes to Chen Tianming. Seafood was definitely necessary. When he found out that Chen Tianming was a tourist from another place, the boss warmly invited Chen Tianming to the greenhouse to personally order the seafood.
After the boss introduced himself, Chen Tianming knew that the fat boss's surname was Huang. Boss Huang was very enthusiastic, and he led Chen Tianming into the greenhouse behind the greenhouse.
This shed was not small either. As soon as they entered the shed, they could smell the fishy smell of the sea. Under Boss Huang's lead, Chen Tianming excitedly picked a big crab. He also picked some big mango conches and chicken tail prawns. Boss Huang even recommended a sumei fish. He boasted that only his family in the entire Hainan region could make sumei fish well. Chen Tianming just smiled and listened like a joke.
After ordering the dishes, Chen Tianming went back to his small folding table and smelled the fragrance of the dishes coming from the dome. He quietly waited for the dishes to be served.
The dishes were served very quickly. Boss Huang personally served the dishes ordered by Chen Tianming. Looking at the plates of dishes, Chen Tianming's appetite was greatly broadened. He held a mango conch in his hand, and the chopsticks in his hand were also moving uncontrollably towards the Jiangdong Sumeru Fish in front of him. The mango conch was picked out and processed before filling it in. Chen Tianming picked out the conch. After eating it clean, he kept fiddling with the conch shell. The shape of the conch was very attractive to him. Chen Tianming had grown up in the capital, but this was the first time he saw such a huge conch.
Very quickly, the table became like a pack of wolves. This meal made Chen Tianming eat very happily.
Wiping his mouth clean, Chen Tianming comfortably touched his slightly arched belly and called Boss Huang, who was far away from Zhang Luo's business, to pay the bill.
"How do you feel about the taste?" Boss Huang asked with a smile.
"Not bad, really not bad. Look,i almost ate the table. Haha... "Chen Tianming made a rare joke.
Customers' positive comments were always the hottest topic in the catering industry.
"Hahaha... You must be joking. If you think it's good, then... Come back tomorrow. I don't mind losing a few tables in this store." Boss Huang immediately beamed when he heard Chen Tianming's words. While he was joking, he couldn't help but reveal a trace of pride in his words.
"Boss Huang, how much is this meal?" Chen Tianming smiled slightly and didn't take Boss Huang's words.
"One hundred and twenty. I'll charge you one hundred and one. Just treat it as a business deal. If the young man is happy, he can come again next time." Boss Huang said generously.
"Okay." Chen Tianming opened the zipper of his bag and took out a stack of at least 7,000 to 8,000 Yan Huang Coins.
Boss Huang's eyes lit up when he saw Chen Tianming take out so much money. Chen Tianming didn't mind Boss Huang's envious gaze. As long as it was a person, they would definitely like money.
After ordering two hundred-yuan notes and giving them to Boss Huang, Chen Tianming kept the money in his bag.
Chen Tianming did not notice that there was a young man on the round table diagonally across from him, looking at his bag from time to time.
Boss Huang took the money from Chen Tianming and kindly said to Chen Tianming, "Young man. I saw you come to my place to eat alone, so I guessed that you were alone. The world outside is dangerous. You better not put so much money on you. Hainan seems peaceful, but it is actually very chaotic. Many robbers specifically rob foreigners like you and bring a bag with you. Put the money and other valuables in the bag again. Young man, you better be careful. "
"Okay, thank you for reminding me. I will be careful." Chen Tianming was still very grateful for Boss Huang's reminder, but he didn't pay too much attention to it. After all, this was the first time Chen Tianming had gone on a long journey. He was yet another young man who hadn't come into contact with society, so he was still very unfamiliar with the outside world. He had no idea what 'money cannot be exposed' meant.
After receiving the money from Boss Huang, Chen Tianming got up and prepared to return home.
Because he had eaten too much, Chen Tianming stretched comfortably and hung the bag on his shoulder. After Boss Huang's reminder, it still had some effect. This time, Chen Tianming put his head through the bag and hung it on his body diagonally.
Taking slow steps, Chen Tianming leisurely walked away from the Ming Rows.
Not long after Chen Tianming left, a few young men at the round table not far from Chen Tianming's folded table also followed suit and left. And the direction in which Chen Tianming left was also the direction in which he left.
The sea breeze blew past, bringing along a trace of coolness.
