Chapter 3555: Old friend from a foreign land(1/2)

Everyone has their own tasks that should be completed.

The boss is there to do the boss's thing, and you do what you should do.

Li Zhifeng never compromises on this point.

Now, the clues are there.

Jock must not be his real name.

But why would he use Blore?

What is his real purpose?

Li Zhifeng still can't figure it out.

But one thing is for sure, Jock is still in Manila.

He will not leave before his goal is achieved.

There is even a possibility that Jock may spy on Blore.

Blore was just a pawn he used.

The chess player is most concerned about the whereabouts of the chess pieces.

Rudy has sent his capable men to several places designated by Li Zhifeng to conduct secret surveillance.

What about yourself?

Li Zhifeng decided to wait and see.

"Why do you do this?" Meng Shaoyuan asked in particular when he heard Li Zhifeng's thoughts.

"Everything you said needs to be put into perspective." Li Zhifeng replied without thinking: "If I were that Jock, after using Blore, I would definitely know his whereabouts, his whereabouts, and his

ending.

And Jock couldn't penetrate into the 'Heart of Darkness'. He also knew very well that Blore had only two possibilities. The first was to be safe and sound, which may be the best outcome for everyone. The second was to be safe and sound.

So, he was discovered.

If the latter possibility occurs, and considering it from Jock's perspective, he will be sure that Blore can't tell anything more, and Rudy, who has suffered a loss, will definitely become angry and will find him at all costs. So, in

With almost no clues, what will Rudy do?

Rudy will send someone to monitor Blore's residence in an attempt to find Jock. Then, as long as Jock monitors Blore's residence, he will definitely guess Bloor's ending. And what I have to do is just to catch the cicada.

The bird is behind."

Meng Shaoyuan really smiled happily.

There is nothing more gratifying than seeing your good subordinates and good brothers grow up so fast.

"Go ahead." Meng Shaoyuan smiled and said to Li Zhifeng, "No matter what you want to do, I will support you with all my strength."

Li Zhifeng arrived at Bloor's residence alone.

This kind of thing doesn't require too many people to follow.

The more people there are, the more likely it is to be exposed.

Li Zhifeng was sure that Qiao Ke must be a very experienced guy.

The place where Blore lives is not a prosperous area.

But compared to most Manilans, the accommodation conditions here are quite good.

Everyone who lives here has a job, even a decent job.

Although Blore is a gangster, he still hopes that his soon-to-be-born child can live and grow up in a relatively better environment.

For example, next door to his house, there lived a teacher and his wife.

It must be said that Manila Mayor Dulkom attaches great importance to education.

He himself studied in the United States and knows the importance of education.

After he became the mayor of Manila, he was determined to revive the education industry here that had been completely destroyed.

His ideas are good.

But in the reconstruction work of Manila, education was given the last priority.

In fact, not only now, but even before the war broke out, apart from Europeans and Americans, how many local children in Manila could receive systematic education?

But Durcombe was an idealist.

He even dared to go against the Americans for his own ideals, although this put him in a very embarrassing situation and he finally had to bow to reality.

However, even so, he did not give up.

After he argued hard, he even had a big quarrel with Osmina, the president of the interim constitutional government in Manila, and finally forced Osmina to allocate a sum of funds to him.

After receiving the money, Durcombe immediately began to resettle the unemployed local teachers.

If the house they originally lived in is still habitable, the government will help them make simple repairs and let them move in.

If the house is destroyed, the government will arrange another place to live.

Not only that, Durkom also paid basic living expenses to these people every week, so that they at least would not starve to death.

Of course, rebuilding schools and resuming education is a long way off.

Even decades later, education in the Philippines is still in a state of flux.

But no matter what, these teachers are still very grateful to Durkom.

After all, in Manila, which is in dire need of development, having a mayor like Dulkom can at least give people hope.

Li Zhifeng also knew something about these.

What makes Li Zhifeng incredible is that there is actually a teahouse here.

Well, although it is not a particularly Chinese teahouse, it is a teahouse in the true sense.

The tea sold here includes "teh tarik" which Filipinos and Malaysians like to drink very much.

The main ingredients of Teh Tarik are tea leaves and condensed milk. The production process is to use two large tea vats. Mix the brewed tea with the condensed milk and then pour it down from a high position several times. The action is like pouring the tea soup into the two tea vats.

Pull back and forth occasionally to mix the tea and condensed milk more fully.

The longer it is pulled, the more foam will occur, the more fully the tea and milk aroma will be brought out, and the taste will be smoother.

This small, apparently newly renovated teahouse mainly sells tea.

Moreover, when Li Zhifeng came in, something that stunned him appeared in front of him:

Hairy eggs!

Yes, real eggs!

The so-called hairy eggs are called chicken fetuses in Fujian and are called prosperous eggs or happy eggs in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Anhui.

Some places also call it "living beads".

There is a certain difference between raw eggs and live beads.

A live bead is a hatching egg, usually 12 to 14 days old, containing a live chick embryo.

Hairy eggs are eggs that have failed to hatch. They are usually 16 to 21 days old and contain dead embryos.

The hairy eggs in the Philippines are called "Balut" and were introduced from China.

The only difference is that Balut is made from duck eggs.

Although this duck egg delicacy retains the appearance of a duck egg, the embryo that is about to become a duck is vaguely visible, and the bones are vaguely visible. In the past, this dish was considered a high-end delicacy.

The method of using raw eggs in China is also very similar, generally using the barbecue cooking method. Although the appearance is not good, the taste and texture are actually good.

Now this high-end Filipino delicacy has actually appeared in a small teahouse!

How could Li Zhifeng not doubt his own eyes?

"Teh tarik, two Balut."

As soon as he entered, Li Zhifeng said.

The boss immediately and diligently made teh tarik on the spot, and then brought two eggs over.

Except for Li Zhifeng, there were no other guests in the teahouse.

Li Zhifeng asked smoothly: "Are you a native of Manila?"

"Yes, but my ancestors are overseas Chinese from Fujian." The boss said with a smile: "Looking at you, you are not a local, right?"

Li Zhifeng asked casually: "Can you tell?"

"Of course, I'm fifty. When I was ten, I came to Manila with my family to join my uncle." The boss didn't hide it either: "You are taller than the locals in Manila, and you don't have their skin color."

"I am also from China." Li Zhifeng said with a smile: "My surname is Li, Li Yuan. When the civil war broke out, I ran to Manila to escape the war. Who would have thought that Little Japan also attacked Manila and my family was gone.

, I’m the only one left.”

The boss sighed: "My name is You Daoxiu. We are all poor people. Most of my family members died at the hands of the Japanese. I survived by luck. I thought I had to make a living, so I opened a restaurant like this.
