Chapter 25: The Shot (I)
Since Zeng Yi agreed to this price, Chen Long couldn't say anything, and now the two sides drafted an agreement, and after paying the deposit, the house was rented.
When he went out, Long Chen still had a cold face, and Lao Qi apologized to him, but he didn't pay attention.
After getting in the car, Chen Long took the initiative to admit his mistake and said: "Brother Zeng, today's incident is really sorry, now think about it, I can't think about it either!" He could see that Zeng Yi was not the kind of person who would eat any small favors, but he thought too low about other people's realms.
Zeng Yi smiled and said, "It's too late for you to help me find such a satisfactory house." After speaking, he looked at the sky and said, "I'm really sorry for delaying you for so long today, and it's not too early now, so let's have dinner." ”
Chen Long hurriedly waved his hand, "What kind of line is this, you must invite me!" ”
At this time, the lights are on, and the whole Rongcheng is shining brightly under the illumination of neon lights. Rongcheng people have the habit of drinking tea in the night market, as soon as it gets dark, many shops are on the sidewalk on the side of the road, setting up exquisite square tables, in addition to selling tea, they also do some barbecue, skewers, rabbit heads, salted peanuts business. Some of the big night markets even have cabaret performances.
The car drove all the way, Zeng Yi thought it was interesting, so he said: "Director Chen, why don't you go to the night market to eat, I haven't experienced the night market in our Rongcheng yet." ”
"It's so basic, it's too basic!" Director Chen shook his head, "I'll arrange it!" ”
"No, just the night market, you can pick the most famous and distinctive night market in Rongcheng!" Zeng Yi said with great certainty.
Director Chen thought for a while and said, "Then let's go to the Qingjiang River, the park night market there is still very good." ”
Qingjiang River is a river that runs through the east and west of Rongcheng, because the river water is clear and the environment is beautiful, the citizens like to come to the river to play. In the past few years, the Rongcheng city government has invested a lot of financial and material resources to build more than ten kilometers of riverside parks on both sides of the river, and several large-scale shopping and dining centers have been developed along the line, which has now become the first choice for Rongcheng people to play and consume.
The Park Night Market is located in the riverside park, and dozens of night markets with different characteristics are connected together, which is very lively.
Chen Long took off his police uniform and threw it in the car, wearing only a white vest, and led Zeng Yi into the night market. In front of a barbecue restaurant, the two found a seat and sat down, ordered the most distinctive rabbit head and barbecue meat in Rongcheng, and ordered a large barrel of draft beer.
"Brother Zeng, I salute you for the first glass of wine!" Chen Long poured a large glass full of draft beer, "There was any collision before, borrow this glass of wine, and I will apologize to you." ”
"If Brother Chen says that, I won't be able to drink this wine!" Zeng Yi covered the mouth of the cup and had no intention of picking it up.
As soon as Long Chen pondered, he understood, "Yes, yes, I said it wrong, in this way, it seems that Brother Zeng, you are too small, I will punish myself!" ”
"There is no need for self-punishment! Today's first glass of wine, it must be me to honor you, if nothing else, just because you are the big brother. ”
When Chen Long heard this, his heart was warm, the height of people's pattern was far higher than he could imagine, what festivals, what Liangzi, people didn't pay attention to at all. He raised his glass and said excitedly: "Okay, let's do this first one first, and we won't get drunk tonight." ”
There is a stage in the very center of the night market with singers singing on it, which is a major feature of the Park Night Market. If any guest needs to sing to entertain them, they can come forward and order a song, and ask the resident singer to sing on stage, and the cost is not expensive, a song costs 100 yuan. When no one orders a song, the singer sings some songs composed by himself on it, and if someone thinks it is good, he can also pay a tip, which can be regarded as a cheer.
I heard that there was a singer at the level of a king and queen here before, so there are some singers who want to become famous and will come here to try their luck at night.
After two rounds of drinking, a female singer was replaced on the stage, and as soon as she opened her mouth, the noisy night market was also a little quieter. Her singing voice is as clear as the water of the clear river, without the slightest impurity, and it is as elegant as the flowing clouds in the sky, the clouds are rolling and comfortable, free and easy.
Zeng Yi was attracted by the singing, and after looking back a few more times, he found that the female singer's face was the same as her singing, fresh and natural, and a little free, when singing, her appearance was very focused and charming.
"This singer sings so well!" Zeng Yi couldn't help but praise it.
"Brother Zeng said yes, then it must be good!" Chen Long was in a good mood at this time. He, the director of the police station, may be majestic in the eyes of the people, but in the system, he belongs to the bottom of the pyramid, bitter and tired, and not pleased, and if he wants to climb up, it is almost impossible without the support of the leaders above. Zeng Yi invited him to drink together today, which really made him overjoyed, it is conceivable that he has a relationship with Zeng Yi, isn't that equivalent to having a relationship with Director Du and even Secretary Tang.
With a wave of his hand, Chen Long called the waiter over, took out two hundred yuan and slapped it on the tray, "Go, send it to the little sister who sings, and say that it is my brother's reward." ”
Zeng Yi stopped the waiter, took out another two hundred yuan, and said, "You go and tell her, just say that she sings very well." ”
Chen Long laughed twice and raised his glass: "I didn't expect that Brother Zeng not only understands medicine, but also listens to songs, he is really an all-rounder." Come, let's keep drinking! ”
After the female singer sang a song, her income was good, in addition to the 400 yuan that Zeng Yi and Chen Long took out, there was another person who took out 50 yuan. This is a night market, and most of the people who come to consume are working-class, and there are really not many people like Zeng Yi and the others who can take out two hundred yuan at once.
After listening to the waiter's words, the female singer looked towards Zeng Yi, but unfortunately only saw Zeng Yi's back.
After singing two songs, the female singer stood there and waited for a while, and when she saw that no one ordered the song, she was ready to step down and change the singer in the back. Because there are more singers here, we have an unwritten rule, if there are no guests to order additional songs, everyone will follow the order of the queue, one person sings two songs, and then the next person, so that all people have the opportunity to show their faces, as long as someone cheers, then tonight is considered to be income.
As soon as the female singer turned around, before she could leave, seven or eight people suddenly came to the position closest to the stage, and after sitting down with a big grin, she shouted to the stage: "Don't hurry to go, we want to order a song!" As he spoke, he slapped a thick wad of money on the table, "Sing, as long as you dare to sing, the money is all yours!" ”
The people in the night market knew that this group of people were deliberately making trouble, a hundred yuan for a song, and a pile of money for 10,000 yuan, that is, a hundred songs. If you sing a hundred songs in a row, won't everyone be gone?
