"Boss, do you have spicy strips here?"

"What?"

“Spicy strips!”

"No~"

"oh!"

One student went out with a disappointed look on his face.

But a moment later, another student squeezed in, sweating profusely, and with a look of anticipation on his face, he asked: "Boss, give me two packs of spicy strips!"

"No!"

"Ah? How come you don't have it here? There are so many people eating, but you don't have it here?"

While muttering, he turned around and walked out the door.

Another student ran over and threw a dollar on the table: "Boss, bring me two packs of spicy strips!"

"What on earth are spicy strips? Why do everyone come here to ask?"

"Ah? You don't even know what spicy strips are?" Hearing the boss's words, the student had a look of surprise on his face, as if he was looking at an alien.

Probably because he felt uncomfortable with the student's gaze, the boss suddenly became a little angry: "No, you can buy something else!"

"Oh, then no need~"

As he spoke, the student quickly snatched the change back from the table, then turned around and left without any hesitation.

For a whole afternoon, this scene kept playing out in the canteen, it was like a repetition that would never end.

Finally, when the school bell rang, and there were no more students in the canteen, the owner of the canteen sat down, exhaled heavily, and then showed a puzzled look on his face.

Spicy strips? What exactly are spicy strips? Why are all those students looking for this thing?

No matter who you are, if you are bombarded over and over again, you will be deeply impressed by this name.

He began to be a little curious about what kind of magic power this thing called spicy strips had that could attract so many students to like it.

He briefly recalled that in just the ten minutes between classes, no less than thirty or forty students had come over to ask about spicy strips, and the eager looks on their faces, as well as their expressions when they got his answer,

The disappointment shown above is enough to show what kind of urgent desire they have for this thing called spicy strips.

He felt that if he didn't understand the answer, he might not be able to sleep tonight.

It is very easy to open a canteen in the school. Most of the time is relatively free. When he is busy, it is only ten minutes between classes. Now, since he has nothing to do, he just closes the door and walks to the campus.

Outside, I found a public phone, dialed a series of numbers skillfully, and then waited quietly.

Within a few seconds, the call was connected, and then a somewhat impatient voice sounded from the receiver: "Hey, who is it?"

"Lao Xu, this is Lao Chang!" the owner of the canteen said directly to the phone.

Hearing the boss's words, the voice on the other end of the phone paused for a moment, and then a hearty smile sounded: "It turns out to be Lao Chang, what's the matter? You are a rare visitor, why did you remember to call me when you have nothing to do?"

This is not an era when local calls cost 1 cent. Nowadays, a public phone call costs 50 cents a minute. Therefore, the canteen owner who is worried about his own phone bill is naturally reluctant to waste the expensive phone bill to chat with the other party and just get straight to the point.

asked: "Lao Xu, let me ask you something. Do you know what spicy strips are?"

The man he called Lao Xu was a dealer who ran a food wholesale business. He was well-informed. He often bought goods from here, so he wanted to get an answer from him.

"What? Latiao? Where did you hear the name? I don't know what it is..." The other party thought for a moment, and just when the boss was worried about his phone bill, he finally gave him the answer.

Hearing that the other party had never heard of this name, the boss couldn't help but feel a little frustrated. It was just that he didn't get an answer. The key was that the phone bill was wasted.

Seeing that one minute had passed on the timer, he couldn't help but sigh. His original intention of hanging up the phone faded. Anyway, the money had already been calculated, so he might as well chat for another fifty cents.

Thinking of this, he frowned and said to the other side of the phone: "You haven't heard of it? No, it's really crazy today. Since the beginning of the afternoon, students have been coming over to buy spicy food.

Tiao, I don’t even know what spicy strips are, but there are still a lot of people. Up to now, more than a hundred people have come to ask. I wonder if there is some new snack that has emerged now. Since so many people ask

, we can’t just let it go!”

"Are there so many people asking about it? Okay, I'll ask you about this, and I'll call you when I have news." The person on the phone hesitated for a moment, and then said to the boss.

"Okay, I'll leave this to you. Please be more attentive. Okay, there's already a lot of time. I'll hang up now!" Seeing that the timer was about to reach two minutes, the boss hurriedly rushed like a barrage of firecrackers.

He usually finished the rest of the series of words and then hung up the phone in a hurry.

Look at the time on the timer. It's 1 minute and 56 seconds. It's almost timed out. It's really dangerous.

He thought to himself, then took out a dollar from his pocket, handed it to the owner of the public phone, turned around and returned to the campus.

When get out of class ended again and students poured in like a tide, there was another burst of people asking about spicy food, and it was an endless stream.

Scenes like this have also appeared on the facades of canteens in many other schools.

When Lao Xu, who runs the food wholesale business, first received a call from Lao Chang, he was a little scornful. He said that there were more than a hundred people asking about spicy strips. He had never seen the world, so he didn't take it too seriously.

go.

However, over the past two days, he received more and more calls, all asking about La Tiao from him, and he gradually began to pay attention to it, and he couldn't help but feel a little curious.

What is this thing called Latiao? Why are so many people inquiring and looking for it?

So, he also started to inquire in his wholesale market and the dealers at the upper level. However, to his surprise, although the people who called him were all describing this thing called spicy strips in school.

It was so hot here, but he asked almost everyone he could, but still didn't get an answer. No one knew what this spicy hot strip that suddenly became so popular was.

It’s really weird...
