Chapter 19 The flowers are good and the moon is thick

Zhao Hongbing is not in a hurry to negotiate with the hardware factory again, he needs to test the other party's bottom line. After returning to the Hilton Hotel, Zhao Hongbing arranged a job for Daguo and Liu Pengfei: to collect information about the hardware factory, especially the intention of several factory leaders for this cooperation.

It should not be difficult to inquire about these, people in this era have not yet been aware of keeping business secrets, especially in state-owned units, any big thing will be known to all ages, such as the big boss of Shenzhen City to come over to cooperate with such a sensational thing in the whole factory, Zhao Hongbing thinks that there will always be some rumors coming out.

After explaining the task and meeting with a few local customers, Zhao Hongbing became the shopkeeper and drove a Mercedes-Benz car to pick up girls.

He came to Haicheng this time, in addition to a business trip, he did not forget that there were two acquaintances here, as soon as he arrived in Haicheng, he contacted them, and after he was temporarily free, Zhao Hongbing paged Xiaobai and asked the two to meet for dinner.

Of course, Xiaobai is just a foil, and Zhao Hongbing cares most about Lu Xiaoya. He never denied that he was a womanizer.

Picking up the two at the gate of the outer Chinese college, Xiaobai and Lu Xiaoya got into the car, Xiaobai touched the spacious and comfortable leather seats, and teased: "Boss Zhao is even more unbelievable, and he has driven a Mercedes-Benz." ”

Lu Xiaoya smelled the good smell of perfume in the car, closed her eyes slightly, and was a little intoxicated.

Zhao Hongbing said with a smile: "Don't dare, don't dare, Zhao has to obediently drive for the two beauties no longer in his life." ”

Xiao Bai hammered him, as bold as a tomboy, and said, "Where are you going to invite us this time?" Tell you, this time it won't save you money. ”

Lu Xiaoya pulled her best friend and said softly: "Zhao ...... The Red Soldier is driving, don't get in his way. ”

Xiaobai stretched out his tone: "Lu Xiaoya, you guy who is heavy on color and light on friends, you forgot about your friends so quickly." ”

Lu Xiaoya's face turned red and said, "It's not serious, let others laugh." ”

Zhao Hongbing laughed cooperatively, and then said: "Haicheng is your territory, your territory is your decision, where do you want to go?" Just say! ”

Xiaobai was angry with his arrogance, rolled his eyes, and said: "If you want to chase our Xiaoya, there is a place that is suitable for you two crazy men and women, that is, Boss Zhao is going to feel sorry for his wallet." ”

Zhao Hongbing said in a loud tone: "Report to the two chiefs, my wallet has been filled, the full-time driver is dutiful, please specify the destination ahead!" ”

Xiaobai and Xiaoya were amused by his serious appearance, Xiaobai pretended to have a rough voice, coughed and said: "Second battalion commander, drive Lao Tzu's jeep out, Lao Tzu is going to visit the kiln ......"

Xiaoya hurriedly covered her mouth: "Die, dare to say anything." After saying that, he couldn't stop laughing.

Zhao Hongbing pretended not to hear it, and asked again: "Report to the master's seat, the little one didn't hear it, say it again." ”

Xiaobai is a person who is crazy, and shouted again: "Second battalion commander, you stupid, Lao Tzu is going to find a good match, hurry up and run, the cooked ducks are gray (flying)!" ”

Zhao Hongbing continued: "Marshal, the artillery fire in front is fierce, you sit firmly." ”

Lu Xiaoya was so amused by his two living treasures that she couldn't breathe, and finally took a breath, pushed Xiaobai and said, "Tell me the place quickly, don't let people run around on the street, it will consume gasoline." ”

Xiaobai was a little more serious, thought for a while, and said: "Do you know how to get to Dahua Road, Hongkou District, there is a very good, hum, very high consumption restaurant." Of course, it definitely meets your needs, it is warm and romantic, and it is not far from here. ”

Lu Xiaoya said excitedly: "I know, are you going to ......?" ”

Xiaobai hurriedly interrupted her: "Don't say it! It's boring to say it. ”

The expression on Lu Xiaoya's face was also full of joy, and she was happier than when Zhao Hongbing drove a big run to pick it up. It seems that the place to go must be famous in Haicheng, but Zhao Hongbing doesn't know.

Zhao Hongbing said happily: "No problem, as long as you are happy." ”

After speaking, he followed Xiaobai's guidance and drove towards the destination.

The place is indeed not far, just a few roads away from the Outer Chinese College, and it takes about 20 minutes to drive.

When I got out of the car, I saw a pink building, with gorgeous lighting and distinctiveness, six stories high, seemingly a simple small building, but extremely ingenious, and the decoration materials were very particular. The words "Flower Good Moon Thick" on the gate have been specially designed, and the four characters are connected together, as if flowers are blooming.

I didn't have time to think about it carefully, and I was already greeted by several neatly dressed young ladies at the door, "Welcome!" The sound interrupted. The counselor asked, "Does Miss Sir have a reservation?" ”

Xiaobai said: "No, Allah wants the house of 'Poppy'. ”

Miss Counselor said, "Sir, Miss please come with Allah." ”

Walk in, is an oval lobby, only to see the eyes are full of yellow, red, blue and green flowers, the fragrance strikes people, on both sides of the road, is a private room, the room is named after various flowers such as "peony", "moon season", "rhododendron", "peony", "red lotus", "lily", "rose", "camellia", etc., the flowers are clustered between the corridor, there is an oval mirror between the private room and the private room, the mirror is inlaid with the Roman wood line pattern in a circle, through the middle, as if in the flowers, wonderful.

Zhao Hongbing thought to himself: It costs a lot of money just to feed so many flowers and green grass, where have I seen this kind of consumption place decorated with flowers in this era, no wonder they are excited and yearning for it when they hear about it. This boss is not simple, he runs the hotel completely according to the idea of operating luxury goods, and he has exhausted his efforts.

Do your best, for different customer groups. With word of mouth, you don't have to worry about no business. It's not far from the Bund, and what a big market for couples in Quanhai City! This place of consumption for couples is different and unique.

Soft and romantic piano music reverberates in your ears, which makes you feel refreshed. Take the elevator to the fifth floor, and the three of them enter the "poppy" box, the room is not big, purple style, elegant and comfortable.

As soon as you enter the room, you feel that this place is completely designed for two people, and it is the best place for couples to meet. Cream-colored bar table with marble top facing the window. Purple suede sofas are arranged on either side of the table, so you can sit facing each other or hugging each other. The back of the sofa is covered with wide white mesh buckles, which makes it feel particularly clean. There is a glass vase on the windowsill, with three-dimensional edges and corners on the four sides, and a bouquet of junzi orchids inserted in it, and a bamboo downlight above the vase illuminates the flowers, and the rest of the light is soft. At the entrance is the bathroom, with a camphor lacquered door and shiny copper handles. The whole structure of the room is a bit like a hotel room, but it is much smaller than the hotel room, beautiful and warm. A light floral fragrance is refreshing.

Originally, it was a pattern designed for couples, and the three of Zhao Hongbing looked a little embarrassed, no wonder the service lady looked a little weird, but these people had been trained for a long time, and quickly adjusted their emotions, did not show anything unusual, and began to serve diligently.

The waiter was wearing a white long-sleeved dress and white high boots, dressed like a flower fairy on TV.

The waiter arranged for Zhao Hongbing and the three of them to sit down, the seats were fine-tuned, so that they did not look so abrupt, and poured three cups of green tea, and said with a smile: "Mr. is so handsome, the two young ladies are so beautiful, I am really happy to serve you!" Would you like to bring a vase and help you put the flowers together? This refers to the flowers that Zhao Hongbing gave to the two of them just now, and they are holding Lu Xiaoya in their arms at the moment.

Xiaoya didn't know what she thought, she glanced at Zhao Hongbing shyly, and hurriedly said, "No, no, I'll bring it back later." ”

Zhao Hongbing said to the waiter: "Thank you!" ”

Xiaobai opened her mouth and didn't know what to spit out, so Xiaoya hurriedly dragged her from under the table to make her restrain herself.

The waiter asked, "Do you eat Chinese food or Western food?" ”

Zhao Hongbing asked Xiaoya first: "Do you eat Chinese or Western food?" ”

Xiaobai said: "I eat Chinese food, what is good about Western food, it's hard to eat." ”

Lu Xiaoya said to Zhao Hongbing: "I'm casual, I'll follow you what you eat." ”

The gentle tone is in stark contrast to the grinning Xiaobai.

Zhao Hongbing knew that Lu Xiaoya actually liked to eat Western food, but he also knew that women should not be too accommodating, and men should have their own opinions, so he said: "Don't be so polite." I'm not used to eating Western food, so I'm hungry now, so I'd better eat Chinese food. ”

The waiter hurriedly handed over a beautiful Chinese cookbook. Zhao Hongbing took it and opened the recipe, all the dishes were color photos, and there were dish names and prices below.

Zhao Hongbing ordered a drunken crab, an iron plate beef tenderloin, a celery lily, a hibiscus white lotus, and a green vegetable. I still want to continue ordering, Xiaobai said: "I can't finish eating if I order too much!" ”

Xiaoya looked at another Western food recipe in the waiter's hand, a little lost.

Zhao Hongbing said: "Remember that Xiaoya loves to drink red wine, and then a bottle of better red wine, a combination of Chinese and Western!" ”

Lu Xiaoya's eyes regained their brightness, and a smile involuntarily overflowed on her face.

The waiter smiled and said, "Please wait!" Soon it will be fine. As he spoke, the music on the wall twisted, and the room suddenly resounded with the soft sound of a piano.

The waiter walked out, closed the door, and Zhao Hongbing said, "This place is really good!" ”

Xiaobai said: "Of course, this is Haicheng's famous 'Flower and Moon Thick', and several scenes of the TV series "Dream of Returning to Haicheng" were filmed here. Every room here is different and has its own character. It's just that the price is too high, and the average person can't afford it. ”

Zhao Hongbing said: "It's worth the money, and it's expensive." What did you just say that the TV series was filmed here? ”

Xiaobai said: "It's "Dream Returns to Haicheng", which is adapted from the novella "Dream Returns", and it is very touching to write a story about a group of Haicheng intellectual youths who were sent to the countryside. Many actors in this drama have become stars, like Zhao Na, *, Jiang Lili, etc., *Xiaoya and I have also seen real people, and their Haicheng Drama Academy is not far from us. ”

Lu Xiaoya said enviously: "The life of becoming a star must be very beautiful, and everyone is looking forward to it." ”

Xiaobai quipped: "You can also go abroad, which just fulfills our Xiaoya's dream." ”

Speaking of star dreams, it reminds Zhao Hongbing of his past memories, remembering that he also worshipped stars for a period of time in his previous life, and his biggest dream at that time was to dance with his idol, a female star on Hong Kong Island. Of course, he is just an ordinary person, and this dream can only be buried deep in his heart, and there is no possibility of realizing it until it finally disappears with time. But now it's different, he was reborn, he has a better starting point, and his career has a foundation, as long as he works hard to go up a few steps and become an upper-class person, it is not impossible to realize that wish, and the most important thing is that the female star is now at a prime age, and it is the best and most beautiful time in a woman's life.

While pondering, there was a knock on the door, and Zhao Hongbing said, "Come in!" ”

The waiter unscrewed the door and pushed a stainless steel dining cart. First set up cups, chopsticks and plates for Zhao Hongbing and Xiaobai Xiaoya, a small bowl with white porcelain carvings and red edges, and then placed three round-bellied high-legged red wine glasses, and then carefully brought the dishes to the table one by one. Finally, a flower basket was carried from the dining car, in which a bottle of wine was placed diagonally, and the bottom was chilled with crushed ice. Zhao Hongbing looked at the French words engraved on the label of the wine bottle and was very satisfied.

The waiter took out the bottle opener and asked, "Did Mr. and Miss open it herself, or did I open it for you?" ”

Zhao Hongbing said: "Please help us open it!" ”

The waiter set the red wine in place, opened the seal, fixed the corkscrew, and kept spinning, only to hear a crisp "bang", and the bottle was opened. The waiter professionally poured a little wine for them and asked, "Do you need anything else?" ”

Zhao Hongbing said: "Thank you! Nothing is needed anymore. ”

The waiter said: "Then I won't bother you, I hope that Mr. and Miss will leave a good memory in Hua Hao Yuenong!" He turned and walked out of the room and closed the door.

Zhao Hongbing held up the wine glass and swirled it gently.

Xiaoya looked at him curiously and asked, "There is a lot of attention to drinking red wine, right?" ”

Zhao Hongbing said: "Yes, I also learned it from some foreign friends. First, pour in a little red wine and never too much. Moisten the red wine with the body temperature of the palm of your hand, and at the same time swirl it like I did, so that the red wine is fully oxidized in contact with the air, and the turbidity in the wine is released. This is the first step. The second step is to smell and taste with your nose to feel the aroma and quality of the wine, which is good. The third step is to taste the wine lightly and don't swallow it in a hurry. Roll the wine into the tongue with your tongue and grind it slowly to let your taste buds experience the good taste of the sake. I'll do a demonstration, come on, Drink a toast! )”

The three of them clinked glasses and took a sip. Zhao Hongbing said: "I'm a little hungry, eat a little first and then drink slowly." ”

Xiaobai said: "I'm starving to death, just watch you flirt and drool, I'll eat first." ”

Xiaoya saw that she kept eating one bite at a time, she was really hungry, and covered her mouth and smiled.

Zhao Hongbing is not a very particular person, chewing in his mouth and saying, "You eat it too!" The food here is good, eat more! ”

Xiaoya agreed, took a chopstick to the bowl, and said, "I'm not too hungry, I usually come home on weekends and eat later than this." I can't eat much. ”

The three of them ate for a while, chatting while drinking, Xiaoya and Xiaobai mainly talked about some campus experiences, which may be plain but full of good memories, Zhao Hongbing told some interesting things he encountered in business, some of which he heard, and more stories he encountered in business in his previous life.

A bottle of red wine was quickly drunk, and under the light, Xiaoya's skin was white and red, her eyes were flowing, and her beauty could not be dialectized.

Zhao Hongbing said: "I really envy your student life, if I can, one day I will go back to school for further study." ”

This is not by the way, in his previous life, his business was not too big, but he already felt the lack of management, which is why he insisted on hiring a senior manager like Chen Weiqi, in this life he has a plan, if the career reaches a certain scale, he needs to do some charging or training for himself, and there are some MBAs from famous schools that are still very good.

Xiaobai's face was also red, but there was no beauty, only some cuteness, and she snorted: "Okay, welcome, where do you go to school, I will try my best to be your teacher." ”

Zhao Hongbing saw that there was still a little wine in her cup, so he touched Xiaobai's hand with the cup and said, "Teacher Bai, then I will toast you first, and wish Teacher Bai a blessing like the East China Sea and Nanshan." ”

Xiaoya was also funny, touched it with a cup, and smiled: "Teacher Bai, Allah also respects your old man for a while." ”

Unexpectedly, Xiaobai suddenly burst into tears, pulled the wine glass to the ground, and cried: "You all bully me, bully me, bully me......"

Xiaobai got drunk like this......

The dinner banquet ended hastily that day, and then Zhao Hongbing and Xiaoya finally helped Xiaobai, who was crying and making trouble, into the car and sent her back to school, Zhao Hongbing had something to say to Xiaoya, but she wanted to stay and take care of Xiaobai, Zhao Hongbing had no choice but to secretly stuff a pre-bought gift to her, so she had no choice but to leave.

Xiaoya comforted Xiaobai, watched her fall asleep, and asked her roommate to take care of her, before returning to the Chinese College, under the dormitory building, she opened the gift given by Zhao Hongbing, and felt suffocated: inside was a delicate pink pager, Xiaoya had seen this model at the Post and Telecommunications Bureau, it was Motorola's latest, with a Hanxian screen, and the price was as high as 5000 yuan.

Lu Xiaoya held this precious gift, and Zhao Hongbing's handsome and heroic face appeared in front of her eyes.

Her heart was a little messy.
