Chapter 56: Eating in a Restaurant

It happened to be time to finish the work, so the law enforcement hall master and Mo Yu came to a restaurant casually.

After Mo Yu had just eaten at the Lin family's cloth merchant's place, he suddenly felt that this seemed to be a bit out of his own taste, in the past, if he really invited someone to dinner, he would be in this restaurant, but today it seems that he suddenly feels very ordinary.

It's just that there is no harm without contrast.

Mo Yu shook his head, shook off the distracting thoughts in his mind, and then said to the law enforcement hall master, "How about here?"

"Everything is up to the lord of the city."

Although this restaurant is not the most luxurious restaurant in the city, it is definitely not a civilian restaurant, and ordinary people can't afford it every day, such as people like Mo Yu.

If Mo Yu really eats here every day, according to his allowance, he will be able to eat a fine meal in about ten days, and it is okay to come once in a while.

When I entered the door, someone greeted me: "Dare to ask the guest officer whether he is downstairs or upstairs?"

"Upstairs to the private room, it doesn't need to be too big." Mo Yu is also familiar with the road.

Of course, if you don't say your identity here, that is, if you don't let the boss give yourself face, you also need to charge for it.

The standard of the fee is not particularly high, but if your consumption reaches a certain point, this fee can be waived.

For those merchants, this charge is completely acceptable, because the service given is not low, and there is a person at the door who specializes in this service, whether it is serving tea and sending water food and wine, and it is always available.

It just so happens that this restaurant is in the middle of the city, so the business seems to be quite good, especially at this point in time, all the things that should come out are out, and it is time to eat.

Then that person politely took Mo Yu and the Law Enforcement Hall Master to a private room on the second floor, which was about enough to fit a few bookcases.

The place is not particularly small, and the two of them seem to be slightly free.

There was a small table in the middle, and then there were four or five chairs around it, and there was a place to throw out the garbage, and this one was close to the window, which was facing the market.

After entering, the man quickly lit the coal lamp, not just one, but there must be five or six in total.

Then Mo Yu made a gesture and asked the hall master of the law enforcement hall to sit down, and the hall master was not too polite to eat, after all, only the two of them were too polite and seemed to be angry.

And then the person is not a person who specializes in serving, that is to say, he is not a person who specializes in ordering food, but is only responsible for bringing people to the table or private room.

Then this person smiled at Mo Yu and said, "I don't know if the guest officer is still satisfied?"

Mo Yu didn't pay too much attention to it, and then he also smiled and said, "Quite satisfied, very satisfied, hurry up and let people in, I'm ordering food here."

"Okay, guest officer, I'll arrange for someone to come over, is there just two of them? Need a table, chair, bench and its dining tools? "The service was quite considerate.

Mo Yu shook his head and said, "Thank you, I don't need it, but let's light mosquito repellent coils as soon as possible, I want to eat with the window open."

"Okay, you'll be right here in a minute." Then this person poured tea for Mo Yu and the law enforcement hall master and left.

For this place, Mo Yu hates the most is that there are mosquitoes for most of the year, so mosquito repellent coils are indispensable, and it is absolutely uncomfortable to let mosquitoes bite one or two pimples.

Mo Yu asked the hall master of the law enforcement hall: "Does the hall master drink alcohol?"

"It's not such a big alcohol addiction, if the city lord wants to drink, his subordinates are willing to accompany him for a glass or two, but the amount of alcohol is not so big, and I hope the city lord doesn't mind." The law enforcement hall master spoke very politely.

Hearing this, Mo Yu laughed: "Don't pretend to be with me here, since I won't talk to you anymore, do you think I don't know you?" I remember when I first came, there was a reception wine, and a few of you almost didn't drink me, and I almost became a city lord who drank to death before I took office. ”

Mo Yu's words made the law enforcement hall master look very cordial, and then the law enforcement hall master said: "That's the new city lord is here, of course I have to drink two glasses, but my alcohol consumption is indeed much worse than theirs."

"Okay, okay, let's drink a little, although I'm a northerner, but I don't drink well, that's why my dad called me unmanly." Mo Yu said jokingly.

Because it is right on the riverside, the river is the place where mosquitoes gather the most, not to mention that there are weeds by the river, and the mosquitoes are even more wanton at night, and this place has become a paradise for mosquitoes.

All of them are playing by the river, which may also be a disaster for mosquitoes.

It didn't take a while for Mo Yu to hear the sound of mmmmmmmmm

But it didn't take long for a man to come in, quickly get a base for lighting incense, and then light the mosquito repellent coil, and then light it on the window, and then around the house.

This mosquito repellent coil is based on a plant in the water is refined, because the plant in the water has a peculiar smell, so there are no mosquitoes and their mosquito eggs around, so people find out about this thing and use it to refine it into a combustible incense, and add a little spice to make it not so big smell.

It became the famous mosquito repellent coil.

The effect of mosquito repellent is superior, of course, because of the complexity of the process and the low success rate, this phase is not able to circulate in the homes of ordinary people.

But most of the people in the city still used it.

It didn't take long for the mosquito repellent coil to play its role, and Mo Yu and the law enforcement hall master never heard the nasty sound of this mosquito again.

Then the person started asking them to order.

Mo Yu is the east, or Mo Yu speaks first: "Let's have two pots of wine first, I'm not good at drinking, I don't know what the signboard is here, just come to two pots of bars that you think are not bad, but the price is not particularly high."

Although Mo Yu often comes here to eat, there are two or three times a month, but it is really rare to invite people to eat, on the one hand, there are working meals in the city, and there are also working meals to invite people, so coming here to eat is basically a tooth sacrifice, basically do not drink, so I don't have a special understanding of the wine in this store.

This person is the kind of person who drills the horns, such a person can be a person in the service industry, and some people will definitely not be able to drill the horns.

When he heard this, the man didn't have any rebuttal, or any second question.

He nodded directly and said, "Okay, then what dishes do you need to order?"

In fact, to be honest, Mo Yu came here to eat, basically came to some meat dishes, meat dishes can experience a little bit of spicy taste, vegetarian dishes are basically salty and sweet, and the spicy taste is basically not very much.

Of course, you can't patronize your own feelings when you invite people to dinner, and then you say to the law enforcement master: "In this way, I will order three, you order three, and I will not politely let you order more, you can eat as much as you want, not enough to order more, there is no need to waste, my allowance is not high, do you think this is okay?" Mo Yu is half-joking when he talks like this, and of course he can also feel some cordial literary taste.

The person who accompanied Mo Yu to order food immediately heard it, these are all people from officialdom, and as such a waiter, he still has a bit of eyesight.

It's just that this person doesn't see who it is.

Then the Lord of the Law Enforcement Hall smiled and said, "The city ...... Sincerity is there, okay, it's decided, I don't have a big appetite, so I'll order three dishes. ”

The law enforcement hall master suddenly felt that it was not particularly good to call the city lord, and then directly changed his words, and his reaction was quite agile.

Then he started ordering here, Mo Yu ordered two meats and one soup, and then he didn't let this person serve rice directly without being too polite.

Generally speaking, the relationship is not particularly good, and it is always polite, and the staple food is brought up in the end, and the head of the law enforcement hall obviously sees that this Mo Yu does not regard himself as an outsider.

So he didn't be too polite, ordered three dishes and let this person go.

Then Mo Yu stood up and stood by the window: "It seems that there is a festival recently, right, I saw that some people by the river began to occupy stalls."

The master of the law enforcement hall also stood up, and then looked at Mo Yu's eyes: "Yes, the annual big gathering is about to start, and people from all walks of life gather here to sell their own special items, of course, this is just a gimmick, I still want to find a seller who can buy my own things for a long time, that is to say, to find a family, and at the worst I can earn some money to make a living."

"Once a year?" Mo Yu actually knew about this matter, because the City Defense Hall had already reported the matter, and this kind of large-scale activity must be reported to the city lord and then let the city lord carry out a defense, and send more people to ensure law and order.

Of course Mo Yu knows about this, and this matter is actually not too difficult to do, there is a fixed pattern every year, reporting is just a process, in fact, the way to do things every year is almost the same, so you only need to find the previous regulations, and then discuss with the elders and distribute it.

But what Mo Yu didn't expect was that this kind of activity would be once a year.

As for occupying the place, it must be that the vendors from all over the place came to the city in advance, and then drew a place with a black pen to indicate that I have occupied this place, and I want to set up a stall here.

Of course, there will inevitably be some disputes, but most of them are not because there is no place left, but just to find a better place.

Those who are more confident come here early, come here a few days in advance and then find a place where they can settle down and advance their business activities.

"This kind of activity is once a year, and we are the busiest time at this time, especially the Law Enforcement Hall has to assist the City Defense Hall to carry out a security work, and such activities need to be carried out for several days, so we have to be busy for several days in a row."

Mo Yu patted the law enforcement hall master on the shoulder: "It's okay, I'm with you, it's okay, the city lord used to patrol with him, and I can't be lazy this year." Of course, this is also a joke.

The reason why this restaurant is more popular is that the efficiency of serving food is particularly high, so it can become a local restaurant with great characteristics, although it is not particularly luxurious, but outsiders come to this place to come to this restaurant to taste the local characteristics.

In fact, the law enforcement hall master is much older than Mo Yu, and it should be about the same age as Jiang Liang, but it is actually not bad to be able to do this at this age.

The second generation of officials like Mo Yu can only be regarded as some special cases.

However, the head of the law enforcement hall still admires Mo Yu, there are not so many nagging things, and he has not taken office three times.

Basically, they do things according to the previous regulations, so they don't need to adapt to new things, of course, Mo Yu has changed a lot of things here, but it is also something that must be changed according to their hearts.

Therefore, Mo Yu is relatively clear in the hearts of these hall masters, and he can be regarded as a few city lords who take their affairs a little seriously.

After the food came up, Mo Yu and the law enforcement hall master both sat on the seats, but just after this person served the food, a person suddenly gently pushed the door in the back.

Mo Yu and the Law Enforcement Hall Master both turned their eyes in unison, and the person who pushed the door did not come in at this time.

After this person finished serving the food and went out, this person spoke, his face was quite kind, and he was definitely not an ordinary person in terms of clothing.

"The two of you, the owner of the restaurant, have seen the Lord of Mo City and the Lord of Qutang." Then the man bent down slightly to show respect for both of them.

Mo Yu and the law enforcement hall master also stood up: "Long admiration of the great name, long admiration of the great name, please come in first and then speak."

Then the owner of the restaurant came in: "I don't know if the two of you are here to miss the welcome, and I still look at Haihan."

In fact, Mo Yu didn't want to say these sour words, but it seemed that he could only say that.

"Where is it, I didn't expect to disturb the boss for a homely meal, you sit down first?"

"No, no, I just think that those people don't know the two, and then I'm afraid of neglecting the two, so let's take a look at it, do you need to change to a better private room in the lower two, this private room is indeed more mosquitoes than later, it's really those people who don't understand to arrange here."

This boss is really good at talking, and Mo Yu doesn't know what to say.

"The boss is serious, the two of us just want to have a light meal, there is no need to disturb the boss, and mosquito repellent coils have been lit here, so it is not a big deal, thank you boss for your concern."

Mo Yu actually felt that such a person was a little annoying, if he wanted to talk, he could just sit down, if he didn't want to talk, then leave quickly.

This boss is definitely not an ignorant person: "The two of you will eat first, this meal will be counted on the head of the next, and I hope that the two of you will not mind the rude place just now, and retire below." And then the person slowly wants to quit.

Mo Yu didn't feel that there was anything to be thankful for, and just waved his hand to let him out, just a meal, Mo Yu didn't feel that he owed the other party anything.

Then the two of them continued to sit down, and Mo Yu shook his head helplessly: "The waiter didn't see it when he came over by himself before, but today he is sharp-eyed."

Mo Yu had already expected in his heart that it was the reason why the two of them came together.

Then the two of them continued to talk and eat, but it didn't take long for all kinds of food to be delivered, and it felt like the whole room was about to be filled with an endless stream, and a few more tables were added to store these foods.

In fact, when Mo Yu saw this, he felt that it was a bit wasteful, and decided not to move it too much, and eat as much as he could, after all, the rest of them would definitely be recycled.

In fact, Mo Yu didn't have any other meaning to invite the law enforcement hall master to dinner, but he had to follow the law enforcement hall master for the first day or two.

"Does Hall Master Qu have any elder brothers and younger brothers or anything like that?"

"Oh, I have a younger brother, who is over there in Beidacheng, and is a team leader over there, but I don't see each other all year round, it's too far away." The Law Enforcement Hall Master replied.

"North Castle?" Mo Yu looked quite surprised, "I'm very close to that side, I mean my hometown, I've been there several times, it's really the sunset over the desert and the long river, has the master of the hall been to the side of the Great Northern City?" ”

"I haven't been there, I haven't been out too much since I was appointed to this city, I'm too busy, and my brother can come and see me once when he has a little free time, and he can also come to see his parents, but he left in a hurry for two or three days." When the Lord of the Law Enforcement Hall said this, he felt a little pity.
