Chapter 124: Gu Ju
Gu Fengtao has been following up on Lao Diao's case in the past few days, basically everyone who can be arrested has been arrested, and all the drugs that should have been seized have been seized, as for the criminals on Lao Diao's line, because of the long distance involved, they have been handed over to the border anti-drug brigade to arrest, so today is a rare and easy day for Gu Fengtao recently.
There are many ways for people to relax, some like to exercise, some like to play games and watch movies, and some people like to sing and drink. But Gu Fengtao is very unique, his way of relaxing is to wander. It's the kind of way to slip around without a brain, walk with your heart, walk through the streets and alleys, and empty your mind.
For Gu Fengtao, forgetting his position and identity, forgetting work and meetings, and returning to the lineup of ordinary people is the best state of relaxation.
After a conference call in the morning, Gu Fengtao changed out of his police uniform and walked around casually in casual clothes. When I was eating, I suddenly remembered Mu Fan. He asked casually before, and learned that Mu Fan and Cheng Meng had been discharged from the hospital, and Mu Fan's blindness had been cured. Thinking of the thirty pieces of steamed buns, Gu Fengtao decided to taste them.
After inquiring about the location of the Ding family's kitchen, he walked over. Originally, Gu Fengtao thought that the business of Mu Fan's restaurant would not be too good, after all, few people should eat steamed buns for thirty yuan each. But when he came to the grocery street and saw the long queue like a swimming dragon, Gu Fengtao was a little dumbfounded.
However, the afternoon's work was completed, and the long queue and the 100% praise of the customers made the man in a high position even more interested, so he lined up at the back. The line lasted for hours, and he couldn't walk into the restaurant until two o'clock, when the line had dispersed.
Mu Fan was still a little apprehensive about Gu Fengtao's sudden visit, no matter what aspect he was considering at this time, he naturally couldn't refuse Gu Fengtao, and it was not a wise move to block a director from the door.
"Make an exception, you have to make an exception. Without your contribution, how can we who do business have such a stable living environment. Mu Fan said, "If you want to eat anything, I'll treat you." ”
"Being able to make an exception is already very face-saving for me, but it's never okay to have a treat. Gu Fengtao smiled and joked, "Even if your steamed bun is thirty yuan a piece, I can still afford to eat one or two meals." ”
"That's that, that's. Mu Fan hurriedly nodded and replied: "But there must be a discount, if it wasn't for the police uncles who arrived in time last time, we would have been troubled by the golden leopards, if you don't let me express it, I will feel uneasy." ”
With Gu Fengtao's identity and status, the number of people who want to invite him to dinner is probably not 10,000 but 8,000. However, with his honest and upright character, he will not agree to any dinner with ulterior motives. So Mu Fan retreated to the next best thing, and he had to leave a good impression on Gu Fengtao.
"Okay, but you can't discount it in half, just give it a nine-percent discount. Gu Fengtao smiled and sat down at the dining table next to him.
"Okay, nine folds is nine folds. Mu Fan pointed to the menu on the wall, "Whatever you want to eat, just order." Although the newly launched set of dishes has been discontinued, Mu Fan naturally will not say anything about this director.
It's not that I'm afraid of Gu Fengtao, Mu Fan is doing business, so naturally no one is afraid. The main reason is that Mu Fan admires Gu Fengtao more, and there are very few big officials who have come out of the mud and are not stained in these years. And to tell the truth, that night in the weaving factory, it was indeed the police comrades who saved themselves and Cheng Meng. It is also a matter of course to give the police head a warm reception.
Gu Fengtao followed Mu Fan's point and looked towards the menu, his brows furrowed quietly. Although he doesn't often go to big hotels, he is clear about the prices of ordinary restaurants. Judging from the location and decoration of Mu Fan's restaurant, the price marked on the menu can be said to be extremely high.
But after thinking about it, a steamed bun costs 30 yuan, and the price of the dish is not surprising. In addition, the restaurant's menu is about the same size as half of the wall, which is clearly marked with the price, and there is obviously no such thing as a pit trick of 38 shrimp and 38 shrimp. Now that the offer is clear, customers flock to it. That means the dishes are worth the price.
"Gu Ju, this set of dishes is a new dish launched today, with meat and vegetables, and it tastes very good. Mu Fan introduced very politely, "Would you like to order a try?"
Gu Fengtao didn't move on the surface, but secretly he quietly touched his pocket, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. This time I came to the restaurant on a temporary basis during the meal, I didn't bring my wallet, and I only had more than 100 yuan on me. And Gu Fengtao is an old-fashioned person in terms of managing finances, and he doesn't use Alipay and WeChat. The most taboo is to bind bank cards to these invisible and untouched apps, and have always only paid in cash.
"I'm here to see it, and this is the steamed bun you made. Gu Fengtao coughed dryly and said, "I won't order the dishes first, I'll try the last steamed bun." ”
"Okay. Mu Fan nodded, "Wait a moment." With that, he turned around and returned to the kitchen.
In fact, there are still a few steamed buns left in the store, but in order to make a name for himself to the Public Security Bureau, Mu Fan decided to work harder and make a new cage for Gu Fengtao. After all, steamed buns are still freshly baked and more delicious.
Shen Xiaoya had been listening to the conversation between the two on the side, and she also knew in her heart that this Gu Fengtao was a big man, but she was not sure in her heart. So he quietly followed Mu Fan to the kitchen and asked, "Brother Mu, who is this Gu Bureau?"
"Gu Fengtao, our newly appointed director of the Public Security Bureau in Liancheng. Mu Fan whispered back, "You have to greet him." ”
Shen Xiaoya was surprised, stuck out the tip of her tongue cutely, and nodded in response. Walked out of the kitchen, poured a cup of fragrant tea for Gu Fengtao, and then stood respectfully by the door, waiting for Gu Fengtao's dispatch at any time.
"I'm just an ordinary customer, I should be busy with you, don't be restrained. Gu Fengtao said to Shen Xiaoya very casually.
Shen Xiaoya nodded obediently, but her feet did not move.
It didn't take long for the unique aroma of steamed buns to come out. Gu Fengtao, who was waiting, couldn't help but sniff, and the gluttonous worms in his stomach began to scream.
Shen Xiaoya, who was very proficient in the process, knew that the steamed buns were about to come out of the cage, so she walked quickly to the kitchen, picked up the plate and waited for it to be served.
Half a minute later, with the sound of the stove finishing, Mu Fan put the steamed buns in the basket, picked one up and put it in the middle of the plate held by Shen Xiaoya.
"Gu Ju, the steamed bun you ordered. Shen Xiaoya came closer, put the steamed bun in front of Gu Fengtao, and said respectfully, "Please use it slowly." ”
"Hmm. Gu Fengtao nodded politely and replied, looking carefully at the steamed bun in front of him. On the surface, this steamed bun is obviously different from other steamed buns, whether it is in color or shape, it can be called a work of art in the steamed bread world.
"Looks pretty good. Gu Fengtao appreciated, picked up the chopsticks, picked up the steamed bun, brought it to his mouth and took a bite gently.
