Section 223 Unexpected Visitors (1)
Lu Li didn't know that it happened between himself and Ou Chenli for a one-night stand, originally with his amount of alcohol, he would not get drunk to this extent, but the world was unpredictable, the wine was sad that day, the mood was depressed, and his mind was inevitably a little drowsy, so he staged this crazy farce! The consequences of this did not begin until years later, but by then, it was already a matter of fact.
"I need to go back to Pengcheng." He said to Cao Xun, Xu Yunjian, and the Liang family brothers and sisters: "I'm sorry, Xiaowei, Xiaoxin, you are here, but I don't even have time to talk to you." When I come back this time, let's get together again. ”
"It's okay, little brother, my sister and I know that you are busy," Liang Xin smiled sweetly, the matter between his sister and Lu Li was satisfactorily resolved, he seemed to be happier than the person concerned, and asked, "By the way, what are you going to do with my sister?" ”
"Well, let's talk about it when we get home."
"Xiaoxiao, auntie, they rarely come to Hong Kong once, this time I will go back for you." Cao Xun said: "A few of us will be responsible for such things in the future, what do you say?" ”
Lu Li frowned slightly and looked at him, "Okay, you know most of the people over there, this time, I still look for Liu Ju, and go to his house by the way - his conditions are not particularly good, you go over and see his family." ”
"Done. What else? ”
"Yesterday Allen told me that the officials of the immigration department will come to the store in the next few days and ask me a few questions, and if everything is normal, I may be able to get an official Hong Kong identity card soon."
"Great!" Gu Zhong smiled sincerely: "If Brother Li gets his ID card, he can be regarded as a real Hong Kong person." However, you have to hurry up and learn a little more Cantonese, your Cantonese is far behind! ”
Luli nodded and smiled. "In addition, there is another situation, Xu Yunjian knows about a little, that is, the matter of capital injection and development proposed by Stephen's company, I asked Allen, and he promised to help me find Miss Ou to have a careful discussion - Xiaowei, don't get me wrong. This time it's a serious business practice, she can be regarded as a lawyer I paid for, and there won't be the kind of situation you imagined. ”
Liang Wei smiled so much that everyone's face turned red, and said writhingly: "I...... I didn't say anything, did I? ”
"You didn't say anything, but you can't help but think about it? This thing, the order is greater than the military order! ”
The crowd burst into laughter! Liang Wei's face was blushing, but her heart was full of joy that was valued by Ailang, "Ignore you!" ”
Lu Li joked with Liang Wei for a while and said, "I consulted with Alan for the time being. He explained to me, to be honest, I am not personally very interested in this kind of capital injection, I find it most interesting, is what he mentioned, the other party can provide us with some aspects of training. I think if that can happen. Including me, I can accept it - learn more about business and management. It is good for all of us. What do you guys say? ”
"If you have that opportunity, of course it would be the best. But, Brother Ligo, can we use it? ”
"If it's just a hot pot restaurant, or there's no need for it, but if you want to make the business bigger. This knowledge is indispensable! What the specific situation will be, we will have to wait for a later date. Luli looked around and asked, "How is it, is there any other problem?" ”
“…………”
"Then that's it, Cao Xun will leave tomorrow. The business in the store Xu Yunjian, Li Tiehan, Gu Zhong, Meng Xiaofei and Chu Yu are in charge of their respective categories, if there is anything, call me at any time. ”
The people nodded their heads and got up to leave; Liang Xin approached her sister with a smile on her face, and said in a low voice, "Do you see it?" How kind is my brother-in-law? ”
"What, don't talk nonsense!"
The two sisters and brothers' voices were very small, but Lu Li still heard it, and bared his teeth at Liang Xin, "Don't envy me, you also have this day, as long as you are obedient and do what I say, you can understand this feeling yourself." ”
"What, I've always been very obedient!"
"I know, I know." Luli said: "Your biggest characteristic is obedience, which will make you the object of many people's love in life, and it will also become the highlight of your life at work." How so? The leader will be more willing to give you some work, as long as you can do your best to complete him-"
"What, if you really give me so much work, will I be able to do it?"
"Xiao Xin, you remember my words, when you go to work, don't be afraid of difficulties, you may find a way to avoid one thing, and you want to avoid countless jobs in the future? Especially for the work delivered by the leader, whether you do it successfully or not, can be counted as a matter of ability, after all, people are not born to be, your efforts, your struggle, others are in the eyes, on the contrary, if you use such and such excuses to be lazy, it will give people an impression that cannot be created, and when the time comes, there are more people behind you to help you, it is also in vain. ”
Liang Xin pursed his mouth unhappily, and he had to distinguish it, so he pulled Liang Wei, "Obedient, Si'er, he is all for your good." “
"I know, but what if I do something wrong? If...... What if it's really difficult? ”
"What are you afraid of if you do something wrong? Who hasn't done something wrong at the time? You don't have to worry about that. As for you saying that it is particularly difficult, many times, it is your own thought that some things are not as difficult as you imagined. We are talking to people in Tianjin, trees are afraid of peeling, and people are afraid of meeting. That's what it means. ”
"I still don't understand."
"This,......" Lu Li tilted his head and thought about it, regretfully staggering, "Xiao Xin, I can't give you a particularly correct explanation now, I still have to wait for the real thing to happen, and then deal with the specific problem." Suddenly, he looked up, his face full of disbelief, "Oops! He screamed with joy, causing everyone to look sideways, only to see him step forward quickly and open the door of the hot pot restaurant, "Please come in, please come in!" ”
A few people walked in at the door, and the first one was Zhu Jiahua. He wore a proper suit, stood by the door and did not enter, but nodded politely. Beside him, there was an old man, who was quite tall, with a half-bald head and a pair of eyes that were burnt yellow from ordinary people, showing that he was not of Han nationality. "Isn't that a disturbance?" He in a very pure Beijing accent. He asked slowly.
"No, don't bother,......" Lu Li probably guessed who the other party was, but he didn't expect it, he asked Zhu Jiahua when he was in Yangcheng that day, and he said that he couldn't come, why did he suddenly come here today? Please come in ,......" He gave Cao Xun a quick look, and the latter turned back. After walking a few steps, he found someone behind him, and when he looked back, it was a sturdy man, dressed in a youth suit, with a smile, and followed him inch by inch.
Cao Xun didn't know what was going on with this person, and he didn't dare to ask more. He followed him to the back of the kitchen, and took out the coals and burned them red. Put it into the hearth, pour the soup and the corresponding seasonings, and after a while, a pot of red and bright Sichuan-style hot pot is concocted. The man in the young costume stood beside him with solemn hands and a pair of eagle-like eyes watching his movements at any time.
Place the stockpot on the table. The bald old man sat in the center, opposite and beside him, there were several people sitting, Zhu Jiahua and Lu Li stood side by side, on such an occasion. As if he didn't even have a seat, "That, I don't know what to say here in Hong Kong, Lao Du, do you know?" Can't you call it a comrade? ”
"Xiao Lu is also a party member, right?" The man he called Lao Du smiled at Lu Li, "When you are in China, you can call you comrade, and here, it's better to follow the customs, Wu Lao." ”
"Just call me Xiao Lu." Luli said with a smile.
The man surnamed Du smiled, picked up the chopsticks and handed them to the old man, "Wu Lao, do you taste the hot pot here, is it the same taste as the one you have eaten in Sichuan Province?" ”
"Okay, try it." Wu Lao picked up a piece of mutton, stretched it out into the pot and shook it a few times, took it out and tasted it, "Hmm, it's so spicy!" It's so spicy! But the taste is pure, the materials are exquisite, little comrade, you have put a lot of thought into it? ”
"You are too complimentary, but in fact, these things are just to let Hong Kong compatriots taste the unique flavor of the motherland, nothing more."
"Well, that's a good idea, a good way to get to know each other."
"Yes, especially for some people who have stayed in the mainland and tasted the taste of Sichuan-style hot pot -- the sense of smell is a feeling that can last for decades, and this is one of the reasons why many Hong Kong people, or many Chinese diaspora, always want to return to their roots, because they are reluctant to eat some of the flavors they ate when they were young -- of course, this is just a very shallow thought."
"That's not wrong." Wu Lao and the man surnamed Du nodded with a smile, he only tasted one bite, put down the chopsticks, and looked around the store, "Well, this...... Conveyor belt, also figured out by yourself? ”
"Yes, a little careful thinking, it's nothing."
"I've heard Xiao Zhu talk about you, it's not easy! After returning to the city, I didn't wait or rely on it, I relied on my own hands, and exchanged my hard sweat for the fruits of life, by the way, you are also a party member, right? ”
Lu Li smiled noncommittally and said: "Old man, don't listen to Brother Zhu, he is my friend, and he always has some compliments for me, which is also a manifestation of his friendship as a friend." In fact, I didn't even do a tenth of what you said! ”
Wu Lao laughed! "Lao Du, let's go, we old guys, don't talk to these young people."
Lao Du nodded and said to Zhu Jiahua: "Xiao Zhu, pay attention to discipline and don't forget time." ”
"Yes!" Zhu Jiahua nodded respectfully, opened the door first, watched everyone leave, and turned around and hugged Lu Li heavily! "Good buddy!"
Lu Li's eyes were also a little moist, "Brother Hua, you didn't catch food just now, I'll take you out later, and our brothers will have a good gettogether." By the way, is there a time set for the evening? ”
"Before five o'clock, we must go back."
"It's too late, it's still half a day." When everyone returned to the store, Lu Li explained a few words, took out a little money from the counter, whispered a few words to Meng Xiaofei, and took Zhu Jiahua all the way out, sat on Volga, and drove towards Hong Kong. "Oh, you don't know...... There are only two close friends left, Zhu Jiahua also relaxed, lit a cigarette by himself, rolled down the car window a little, and inhaled slowly, "In the past few days, I have meetings every day, and my fingers hurt." ”
"How?"
"Take notes! These are to be brought back for the record. It wasn't until yesterday that we finished talking about serious matters -- the old Du just now was the head of the Hong Kong branch of the Xinhua News Agency, and his name was Du Kuang. ”
"Big shots?"
"Who's to say it isn't?" Zhu Jiahua smiled and turned his head to look at Lu Li, "Xiaoxiao, you are really fucking good, it's not okay to talk to me like this, and talk to our minister like this?" ”
"Actually, you're taking things seriously. I earn my money, he is his official, there is almost no intersection with each other, and the respect for him is limited to the courtesy of the shopkeeper to the customer. As for whether it is unruly, I think that people like him, who come and go in and out every day, there are always people who greet him, and they may not even understand the minimum word equality. Instead of that, I should just be myself and do what I want,......"
Because of his limited knowledge, Lu Li's speech was a bit upside down, but Zhu Jiahua and his old friend for many years still understood it very well, and asked rhetorically: "You have been asking Xiao Xin to go to Minister Yang's house and talk to them, is it also out of this consideration?" ”
"Yes. Because I always feel that no matter how big a person's official position is, it is only a superficial article, and in his heart, the yearning for feelings is not constrained by status. On the contrary, many people, especially the people below, can't see through this layer, but cower everywhere, which makes it difficult for the superior to approach, forming an artificial feeling of being overwhelmed by the heights. Just like you Minister Wu. ”
"I can't talk about you anyway." Zhu Jiahua said with a smile: "By the way, where are we going?" ”
"You don't care, just follow me left and right. Make sure you eat and drink well, and don't break discipline. Oh, here we are. "The speed of the car slowed down, and Zhu Jiahua looked up to see that it was a tall building, and there were three golden Song characters 'Xiangyunju' hanging on the lintel." Tiny, it's ......."
"This is Xiangyunju, which is also the leading restaurant in Hong Kong, I came to eat with Xu Yunjian and others, and the food was very good. Let's go, go in and have a look? ”
Zhu Jiahua stood in front of the building, looked up at the six-story building, and said with some cringe: "Xiaoxiao, this is ...... Aren't you afraid? ”
"What's not to do? Who do you think you are, and how do anyone else know you? Hong Kong people look at the past from some angles and are most selfish – don't get me wrong, it's not that derogatory selfishness. ”
"Nonsense, selfish and praised?"
"There is indeed a point, Hong Kong people's selfishness is similar to the meaning of Yang Zi's indefatigable point, all of which are misunderstood, Yang Zi's original intention is that you are also unplucked, and I am unplucked, and everyone in the world is unplucked, and by extension, to the current society, that is, everyone is responsible and does their own thing, rather than paying attention to more other things and people. In a place like Hong Kong, it is particularly obvious, businessmen are to make money, actors are good actors, and the underworld is to be loyal to Guan Erge; And so on and so forth. It's not like we are in China, where a worker can talk about national politics, and a sweeping cleaner talks about football, which is even more straightforward than the best football commentators, as if he were to be the head coach of the Bayi team and the Lokomotiv team, and he would be guaranteed to win the championship. ”
As he spoke, Zhu Jiahua laughed wildly! "You stinky boy, where did you come from?"
"You haven't been here, you don't know, that's actually what happened; According to my point of view, it is more scientific to come to this kind of social operation mode of each in its own place and each seeking its own government. Lu Li pushed Zhu Jiahua, and the two of them walked into the restaurant, "Let's go, take you to a big meal." (To be continued......)
