The two dining tables are docked together, a huge copper hot pot is placed in the center, the damper below is opened to the maximum, the black charcoal in the charcoal stove is burning, showing a warm orange red, the water splashing near the stove is tumbling, and the green onions, ginger and garlic that are cut into sections have been steamed by hot water, and have exuded bursts of unique aroma, "Mrs. Ou, Miss Ou, today is a trial operation, and there is no broth, please bear with me." After the official start of the day, I will invite you to come over, not to drink the broth, but to let you taste the fine beef and mutton produced in the mainland. ”

Lu Li and Ou Chenli sat next to Ou Pei Linying on the left and right, Liang Wei on his left, followed by Xu Yunjian, Li Tiehan, Li Xueqing, Ah Mao, Gu Zhong, and next to Gu Zhong was Ou Chenli, nine people gathered in a circle, talking lively, "Really, Mrs. Ou, I testify, this is not Xiaoxiao and you boasting about the wealth of our continent, and the sheep we raise are really good things!" When you have a chance in the future, please go to the mainland to take a walk and see, especially the grassland on the northeast dam, oh me**! That kind of scenery, to be honest, you Hong Kong people really can't imagine it! ”

Ou Pei Linying nodded with a smile, she also felt very happy, just as Lu Li said to the parents of the Cao family at the beginning, hot pot is a thing that really has a very, very pure Chinese taste, especially a few people sitting around the fireplace, that kind of emotional fusion, she also felt moved by almost all the Western food, "Thank you, Mr. Xu, I think, if I have the opportunity, I will definitely go." ”

Ou Chenli rolled her eyes, "Is it really as good as you say?" ”

"Of course, I don't believe you ask Xiaoxiao."

"Tiny?"

"It's Luley." Xu Yunjian was stunned, "You don't know that this is his nickname?" That's what we all call him. Well, you Hong Kong people hardly use this word, and it's no wonder you don't know it. ”

Ou Chenli laughed and asked with a bad expression, "Is he very small?" Or is it very small at certain times, or is it very small in certain parts? ”

The chopsticks in Lu Li's hand paused, of course he understood what Ou Chenli meant by these words, but he didn't expect such a flowery girl to say such a thing, but he couldn't refute it in the public, so he had to laugh, "Mrs. Ou, let's eat?" Today's hot pot is mainly considered by the way Hong Kong people eat, do you see if it fits the taste? ”

Ou Pei Linying took a chopstick of beef and put it in her mouth, chewed a few bites, "Well, it's a little light." ”

"Want to be salty? Yes, there is! You try the ingredients of our northerners, I asked Ah Chung and Ah Mao, you Hong Kong people don't use it, can you try it today? Xu Yunjian, go, take out the bowl. ”

The so-called ingredient bowl is the ingredients that have been adjusted, mainly sesame sauce and leek flowers, with soy tofu, sesame oil (that is, sesame oil), and chili oil and coriander are prepared, the latter two are added according to personal preferences. Smelling the pungent aroma of chili peppers, Gu Zhong and Ah Mao jumped up, "Is there today?" If we don't have any, give me some! ”

Each scooped a large spoonful of chili oil into their bowls, Gu Zhong and Ah Mao looked at each other and smiled, "Mrs. Ou, Miss Ou, don't you want to have some?" Very tasteful. ”

Although Ou Pei Linying knew that chili peppers had the disadvantage of making people hot, it was really not appropriate to refuse such an occasion at the moment, so she had to nod, "That's ...... I'll come a little less. ”

"You'll know if you've tasted it, not having this thing and having this thing is not a feeling at all."

In later generations, Sichuan-style hot pot was all over the world, and it was by no means without reason, adding seasonings and chili oil, and then mixing it with juicy mutton, the aroma came to the nose, and the mother and daughter invariably picked up the meat strips and sent them into their mouths; They eat more Western food than Chinese food, not to mention mutton shabu. After tasting it for the first time, I found that the delicious taste enjoyed on the taste buds was transmitted to the brain, and I immediately gave birth to a sense of acceptance that I would never reject, but I was stimulated by the chili pepper and my body was hot, and a layer of sweat appeared on my greasy face, "Oops, it's so fragrant!" Ou Chenli blurted out a sentence, causing everyone to chuckle and laugh.

"Delicious, right?" Gu Zhong beside her asked: "When I ate it with Ah Mao for the first time, I couldn't stop my mouth, or Miss Ou, ladylike!" ”

Luli almost burst out laughing! Ou Chenli is also a lady? If she were, she would be the Jade Emperor of **! "Xiaowei, I'll clip it for you?"

"No, I'll do it myself." Liang Wei smiled sweetly, "You talk to Mrs. Ou, don't always take care of me." ”

"Okay." Lu Li agreed, turned his head and talked to Ou Pei Linying, he also happened to have some legal questions to ask the other party! "Mrs. Ou, there is such a situation, there is no commercial agreement between the mainland and Hong Kong for the time being, let alone any import and export exchanges between them. But you also know, I have some connections in China, especially in Guangdong Province, so I want to transport something in. ”

“…………”

Lu Li smiled, "The so-called things are actually agricultural products including ordinary vegetables. The production of this necessitative necessity of the people's life has been raised to the level of the political axe in the country. I spoke to a few of my friends before I came to Hong Kong from Guangdong Province recently. Although there will still be resistance – as you know, the country has been implementing political decisions based on the class struggle for the past few decades, and now there are certainly some people who can't turn their brains around. But this is only a small section, and the general direction will not change. So I thought that in the next year or two, if my supply could be effectively guaranteed, it would not be a big problem to win such a huge cake as the supply of vegetables for nearly 4 million people in Hong Kong. Or it's a bit of a stretch to eat it all, but it's not a problem to take a portion of the cake. ”

"Well, even if what you say can be done. So, what do you want to ask me? ”

"I would like to ask you, on the basis of no official way, if I transport such a product into Hong Kong as an individual, will there be legal trouble?"

"Theoretically, it won't work, but ......" Ou Pei Linying suddenly paused, "This matter, frequently, you should explain it to Mr. Lu, right?" ”

"Huh?" Both of them were stunned at the same time.

"Mr. Lu, my daughter is also studying law in the UK, but unlike me, she is majoring in commercial law, and I am studying civil and matrimonial law and criminal law. In this regard, I can provide less insight than hers. Frequently? ”

Ou Chenli had no choice but to nod and say, "Mr. Lu's question this time is very good, not to the side, but to provide me with a new idea." That is, in the absence of a formal trade agreement between the two countries, the likely names of such private commercial transactions are ....... If this problem can be solved, I believe that it will also be beneficial to Hong Kong's local economic development for a period of time to come. In particular, Hong Kong's geographical location is very special, the first class of industries is completely blank, and most of the second and third types of industries are mainly processing and exporting, and the economic dependence is relatively large,......"

She only cared about telling the story according to her own thoughts, and instead threw Luli out of the clouds! "That, Miss Ou, ...... about the question I just said?"

"Oh, what did you just say?"

Lu Li was extremely helpless, looking at Ou Chenli's beautiful eyes flashing in the narrowness, he knew that the other party did it on purpose! At that moment, he said it again from the beginning, Ou Chenli didn't have time to speak, Gu Zhong suddenly put down the chopsticks and asked, "Brother Li, are you ...... Is that true? I mean, are you serious? ”

"What's wrong? What are you doing with such a big spirit? ”

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm just so excited! Brother Li, do you know how much money we can make in a year if we win such a business? Let me tell you, hundreds of millions of dollars is the least! ”

"Okay, don't say these brainless words, you have to have a little workable surname? Miss Ou? ”

Ou Chenli rolled her eyes, "I'm sorry, I forgot, can you say it again?" ”

As soon as he said this, everyone's mouths became 'O' shapes, and now they knew that the relationship between the two of them was extraordinary, and Lu Li raised his eyebrows! Suddenly, he eased up again, and he said it again obediently! Ou Pei Linying was very upset, and gave her daughter a look, Ou Chenli finally stopped messing around this time, and said seriously: "In this case, there must be a customs approval, to put it simply, you must have your own import and export company, and only after obtaining the customs approval can you carry out such imports." ”

Lu Li was secretly annoyed, Ou Chenli, this girl was so hateful, she was simply playing with herself! Before she even finished her words, she gave an explanation, which shows that she had already thought about it! thought so in his heart, but there was no show on his face, "In other words, in addition to this hot pot restaurant, there needs to be other industries?" ”

"Isn't that easy? Isn't it enough to register a company with the Hong Kong Commercial Authority? In addition to the approval I just mentioned, one is transportation and the other is sales, and if these two channels can be solved, the situation will be about the same. ”

"I see." Lu Li knew the bottom of his heart and stopped asking, "Oh, Mrs. Ou, I'm sorry, I said that I would like to invite you to eat shabu mutton, and I started to get down to business again." Come on, let's eat, shall we? ”

*******************************************

Sent away Ou Pei Linying's mother and daughter, and several people returned to the room, Gu Zhong was taking out a deck of playing cards, and Li Tiehan was playing a game with me one by one, Ah Mao had already gone home first, he didn't live here, no matter what time he worked every day, he had to go home and sleep with his grandmother's house.

"Xiaoxiao, you and your sister-in-law should go to bed early, by the way, I will deposit the check in the bank tomorrow, and then pay Lee Kee as soon as possible."

"Okay," after a day of tossing, Lu Li was also a little tired, "Ah Zhong, go to bed early, right?" Good night. ”

"I know," Gu Zhong looked up and smiled, "Brother Li, good night; Good night, sister-in-law. ”

Liang Wei's face turned red, and she hid behind him and snorted a few times, but she vigorously twisted Lu Li, "Oh, why are you screwing me?" ”

Everyone thought it was even more funny, they already knew what was going on with the 'male and female', curious and interesting, and the most hateful was Xu Yunjian, who actually opened a handicap in the store, appointed himself as the banker, and bet on when the couple would achieve good things - this must be hidden from the two parties. One to one tonight, three to one tomorrow, five to one the day after tomorrow, eight to one after four days, and fifteen to five days later!

Gu Zhong and Er Li also thought it was funny, and they bet one after another, "Xu Yunjian, can you do it?" Gu Zhong kindly reminded him that he bought a bet today and tomorrow, "Don't you lose money when the time comes?" ”

"Don't worry, isn't it twenty dollars? I will lose 60 yuan to you at most, can't I afford to lose? Don't say it's one to three, it's the most one to pay fifteen, only three hundred yuan, what's the big deal? Xu Yunjian grabbed the money on the table, folded them one by one and put them in his pocket, "Sleep, sleep." ”

Gu Zhong thought about it, and suddenly grabbed him, "You wait!" ”

"What are you doing?"

"How do you know if the two of them have ...... That one? I'm telling you, I'm willing to gamble and lose, don't you look back and say you don't know? ”

"Nonsense, Xiaoxiao is the most talkative, if I am Laipi, I will not be able to get by from him - don't worry, I will definitely not Laipi. As for how to know, you don't know, and they don't know either, but they can't hide it from me Xu Yunjian! He glanced back at a few people and smiled, "**! When you look at your virtue, you know that you haven't tasted it, right? ”

"Who said that?" Li Tiehan rubbed his nose with his surname, and said in an unconvinced voice: "Who hasn't tasted it?" Unless it's Ah Zhong. ”

Xu Yunjian smiled, shook his head and said, "I didn't mean that, you ......, I mean, I haven't tasted the taste of a girl, right?" ”

"Have you tasted it?"

"Of course!" Xu Yunjian smiled proudly, took out a cigarette and divided it again, "Come, sit down, and tell you about it." That's when I went up to the mountains and went to the countryside......"

He was downstairs to show off his ** history, of course, what people are willing to show in front of others is the experience of passing five levels and killing six generals, and the matter of defeating Maicheng was automatically avoided, the lights in the small store were bright, a few people were smoking cigarettes and chatting, and unconsciously time passed quickly, until someone walked down the stairs, only to interrupt his poor white call, "Xiaoxiao, why don't you sleep?" What about sister-in-law? ”

"She's already asleep," Luley sat down at the table in a hurdle vest, revealing a sturdy**, grave-like **, with a pen and paper in his hand, "I want to do something, just in time to see that you haven't slept yet, so I'll come and talk to you." ”

"Brother Ligo, do you have a cigarette? One at night, it's very refreshing. ”

"Don't." Lu Li straightened his body and said: "There are a few things, first, tomorrow Ah Zhong and the fourth child will go out, you are from Hong Kong, you are familiar with the environment here, the first thing is to find a place to make a plaque." ”

"Yes, yes, yes! We've all forgotten, you can afford a sign, Xiaoxiao, what are you going to call it? ”

"I thought about it and had two choices, one was called Fang Kun and the other was called Kun Fang. It's not a nice name, but it has a special meaning to me......"

Gu Zhong didn't know what the special meaning was, Xu Yunjian and the others were all unclear, and they selected one word from the names of his uncle and aunt as a signboard, obviously nostalgic, "Xiaoxiao, Fang Kun is very good." ”

"What about you?"

In a moment, Gu Zhong had already listened to Li Xueqing's hasty explanation, and he said, "Brother Li, this is ...... There was no room for me to speak, but I thought that both words were flat and not particularly smooth to call. ”

"Oh?" (To be continued.) )
