Located on Gordon Road in the Shanghai Tang Public Concession, this bakery named Haokelai was funded by Chen Lei alone, and the members of the international intelligence group of the Shanghai Station of the Military Command were all placed in this bakery, some became clerks, and some became bread makers, and developed their other survival skills other than intelligence gathering, which was also quite good.

Xu Ning, a member of the international intelligence team of the Shanghai Station of the Military Command, who worked as a clerk at the Haulalai Bakery, was responsible for selling all kinds of bread in the front hall, and when he saw Chen Lei with a young and beautiful girl who looked sixteen or seventeen years old, he immediately made him very curious about this.

In Xu Ning's opinion at this time, this morning, Chen Lei took away Sun Chenglin, who was also a clerk with him, in the name of carrying out a secret mission, and didn't even say when he would let Sun Chenglin come after this secret mission, so he hurriedly said goodbye to them, and when Sun Chenglin left, he didn't even give a hug to all the staff of the bakery.

It's good now, it's only been a few hours, and Chen Lei came to the door with a young and beautiful girl, I don't know what kind of medicine Chen Lei sells in the gourd.

For the sake of prudence, Xu Ning did not call Chen Lei "team leader" in front of Ah Xiu, but walked forward with a polite smile and said, "Welcome Mr. Chen." There are a few new types of bread in my store, so Mr. Chen might as well try them. ”

Ah Xiu, who was walking on the side, heard that this male clerk who looked to be in his twenties, after seeing Chen Lei, put on a smiling face to greet him, and called Chen Lei "Mr. Chen" very familiarly.

Based on this, Ah Xiu secretly concluded in his heart that Chen Lei must be an old customer of this bakery, otherwise, the male clerk of this bakery would not have seen him behave so attentively.

Chen Lei, who was walking in front, nodded slightly at Xu Ning, who came forward, and responded casually: "Okay, Xiao Xu, today, I'll take a good taste of the new bread launched by your store and see how it tastes." ”

Speaking of this, Chen Lei glanced at Xu Ning in front of him, and then changed his words, briefly introduced Ah Xiu standing next to Xu Ning, and said, "Oh, I forgot." What's that, Xiao Xu, let me introduce you to it. The girl standing next to me, his name is Ah Xiu, and she is now my newly hired secretary.

"I'm going to be busy for a long time to come. If I can't spare to come to your store to buy bread, I will ask Ah Xiu to help me come to your store to pick up bread. Today, it's the first time I've brought her over to meet Xiao Xu. Wait a minute, you can call the other staff in your store out and get to know Ah Xiu. ”

Xu Ning heard Chen Lei say this, which made him, who was already confused, even more confused, he felt that Chen Lei had always been a fake loner before, and when he came here to connect with them, he came alone, and he never found a replacement candidate.

It's good today, after sending Sun Chenglin on a secret mission, a very strange, but very beautiful young girl suddenly appeared, still as Chen Lei's secretary, and would often come to the store to get bread in the future.

However, who called Chen Lei the team leader, as a member of the team, Xu Ning could only obey Chen Lei's orders.

"Hello, Miss Axiu. My name is Xu Ning, and I'm a clerk at Hawker Bakery, so it's a pleasure to meet you! Xu Ning walked up to Ah Xiu, first stretched out his warm right hand, and said very politely.

Ah Xiu was stunned for a moment, and after hesitating twice, she also stretched out her somewhat cold right hand, shook Xu Ning's hand gently, and then let go, and said, "Xu Ning, hello, I'm also very happy to meet you." ”

Ah Xiu was also confused about Chen Lei letting her know the clerk in this bakery, and she couldn't figure out why Chen Lei did this.

In Ah Xiu's opinion, this hawker bakery, from the perspective of her past as a daughter, is just a very ordinary bakery, in the huge Shanghai Tang, there are hundreds of bakeries like this, why do you have to travel so far to buy bread here.

Before Chen Lei said the reason, Ah Xiu felt that as a secretary, even if she had questions in her heart, she couldn't ask Chen Lei, so she buried this question in her heart and waited until she had the opportunity to ask it later.

Next, Xu Ning followed Chen Lei's instructions, called out all the three masters who were making bread in the back kitchen, and got to know the Axiu girl brought by Chen Lei one by one.

After getting to know each other, Chen Lei asked Ah Xiu to choose bread, and boasted about Haikou, and asked Ah Xiu to choose whatever he wanted, no matter how much he bought, he would pay for it.

At first, Ah Xiu thought that Chen Lei was joking with her, but under her repeated inquiries, she got a positive answer from Chen Lei, not like he was joking with her, but very serious.

So, Ah Xiu, who was relieved, didn't say a word, and chose the four latest breads introduced by Xu Ning, and asked for two for each bread.

In the process of choosing bread, Ah Xiu was very happy, but when she finished choosing, she was a little unhappy, because she found that every new bread launched in this bakery was expensive.

Each loaf of bread costs an ocean, and these eight loaves of bread, albeit with a discount, will cost five oceans.

"No...... Don't be so much, don't ...... I'm sorry, Xu Ning, I'm ...... I just want one loaf of bread! After Ah Xiu finished selecting the noodles, when she heard Xu Ning, who was settling accounts, say that she needed to pay a total of five oceans, she hesitated for a moment, and then said a little embarrassedly.

Chen Lei, who was standing in front of the counter, generously took out five pieces of ocean, put them on the counter, and said lightly to Xu Ning, who was standing in the counter, "Xu Ning, don't listen to Ah Xiu, we all want these eight pieces of bread, give it, this is five pieces of ocean." ”

After paying the money, Chen Lei asked Ah Xiu to carry the paper bag containing the four loaves of bread, and after saying goodbye to Xu Ning, the two of them turned around and left the Hawker Lai Bakery.

Out of the store, Ah Xiu asked Chen Lei happily: "Mr. Chen, next, where are we going to eat these eight fragrant breads?" ”

Chen Lei glanced down at the watch on his left wrist, and saw that there were still more than ten minutes left, and it was one o'clock in the afternoon, so he looked up at Ah Xiu who was standing next to him, and said with an indifferent smile: "Ah Xiu, these noodles are bought for you alone, I won't eat them, you can eat them yourself." ”

"So what are we going to do next?" Ah Xiu immediately asked Chen Lei with some confusion and continued to inquire.

Chen Lei, who was standing in place, replied word by word with a smile on his face: "Send you home." ”
