Chapter XXV. The Work of the Mayor
For Chen Xunyi, this dinner was the first meal he ate after coming to the Great Wall on the border.
Although the environment of the room was very good, he was a little inexplicable about the first meal, judging from the tone of the strict stone, this meal was not so simple.
I don't know if he was used to the prison food or if the taste was not suitable, Chen Xunyi just ate a few bites and felt full.
Such a good eating environment, but this food seems a little bland, he thought, the good place is that the portion is enough, as for the taste... , and this wine.
As a scarce surgeon, he has also drunk a lot of high-grade and high-grade wines.
Chen Xunyi frowned, and took another sip, this wine should be quite cheap!
"This wine doesn't work! You say, don't you? "Poole stuck out his tongue and snorted.
Why do you ask me? Chen Xunyi glanced at Gu Pengsi with his spare eyes, and found that a trace of displeasure passed over his face, "I don't drink often, so I don't know." ”
Ahab lifted his glass and shook it, "Looking at the color and precipitation of the wine, it is indeed not a good product!" ”
Yan Shenshi drank all the wine in front of him, "Do you want to give you the most expensive wine?" What such nonsense, it's someone who invites you to dinner! Don't find faults, eat quickly, go back after eating, and there will be tasks in a few days! ”
"Sorry! I'm sorry! It's a dereliction of my job! The butler bowed, "I prepared this wine, and I didn't satisfy you!" ”
"Be reliable next time!" The mayor smiled stiffly, "I'll ask him to get a few more bottles of good wine!" ”
"No need, Mr. Mayor! We have very little time and no extra time to eat and drink here! Yan Shenshi shook his hand.
"You just got the patrol back!" Gu Pensi whispered a few words to the butler.
The butler politely left the room.
"It's saved!" Poole kept throwing the knife in his hand upwards, "And I could have followed up with an anatomical operation, but... ”
Except for the mayor and Yan Shenshi, everyone's eyes fell on Chen Xunyi, he looked back, turned his head, and leaned back in his chair.
The mayor picked up a handkerchief and wiped his hands, then carefully took a piece of bread and chewed it, looking disgusted and trying to pretend to be the same identity as everyone else, "But what... ”
"Take care of your mouth and eat with peace of mind!" Yan Shenshi knocked on the table.
"Captain Yan! This guy almost killed us all in the woods! Gao Xiang glanced at him, "You brought him here, are you going to make him an anatomist?" ”
"Turns out he's the new autopsy!" Gu Pensi looked at him with a smile and nodded politely.
Chen Xunyi smiled awkwardly and nodded in response.
"So what do you say you should do? Do you have the dissection done? ”
Poole leaned forward, "Replace him!" ”
"Whoever of you has the power to replace him, I'll replace him now!"
"Captain Yan!" Poole stretched his voice long, "How did you become like Yu Zhengwen's stupid ass, maintaining this waste all the time." ”
Chen Xunyi's hands on the table were clenched into fists hard, Yu Zhengwen's death made him feel deeply guilty in his heart, but the person in front of him wantonly attacked him with the dead person, which made him feel angry in his heart!
He was about to stand up, but was startled by a heavy knock on the table.
"Shut the fuck up! Eat well! Yan Shenshi pointed at Poole, his teeth clucking! Like an angry bull, "This is someone else's table, be polite!" And don't joke about your dead teammates, if you don't shut that mouth again, I'll pick up the knife in your hand and cut your tongue out! ”
Poole leaned back, looking unconcerned, "Are you sure you took it?" ”
"Sure!" Ahab turned around and put his hand on Poole's shoulder, "You should learn to be respectful, especially to Captain Yan!" ”
Poole glared at Ahab and turned his head away, muffled.
"I warn everyone, don't point fingers at what I've decided in the future!"
The others glanced at each other and continued to eat.
Gu Pengsi smiled and clapped his hands, "Captain Yan is really very majestic!" Today's dinner is really not in vain! ”
The butler came over with a new bottle of wine, wanting to continue pouring wine for Yan Shenshi.
Yan Shenshi raised his hand and refused, "Don't drink anymore!" Mr. Mayor, if you have anything, just tell me directly! ”
A hint of surprise flashed across Gu Pengsi's face, obviously a little surprise from Yan Shenshi's direct surprise.
"Since Captain Yan said so!" The mayor's palms were placed in the shape of a tower, "Everyone here is the elite of the pioneer team, and I want to provide you with a part-time job under certain considerations!" ”
Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at Gu Pensi.
"Work?" Yan Shenshi pondered for a moment, "Why does Mr. Mayor want to offer a job?" ”
"I know very well about your salary level, besides, some people are still prisoners and have no income, such a situation will hurt the enthusiasm of the soldiers guarding the Great Wall of the border!"
He clapped his hands gently, "If you can work part-time as a bodyguard with me, I would welcome it, and as for the salary... Of course, it will be higher than that of the coalition government! And if there's anything I need help with, I can help! ”
"Mr. Mayor has really thought about us!" Yan Shenshi smiled, looking disdainful.
Why does this mayor want so many bodyguards? Chen Xunyi was a little puzzled, but he felt that except for Yan Shenshi, everyone else was seriously considering the job provided by the mayor.
"What? Mr. Mayor, didn't the Extinct City Security Department send someone to keep you safe? ”
Gu Pensi spread his hands, "Of course there is, but you know that there are some deficiencies in security here in Extinct City, and the location of this job is in my house!" It's very easy and convenient! ”
"I see, look!" Yan Shenshi pointed around, "These are all guard troops with rich combat experience, and they are not easy to choose, or let them all work part-time!" ”
"Captain Yan really has no opinion?" Gu Pengsi didn't seem to believe what Yan Shenshi said.
"Don't pull me! I'm not interested in being a watchdog. Poole grabbed a piece of meat with his knife and took a big bite.
His words drew the resentment of others.
Guevara muttered quietly, "You don't want to, but don't break someone else's path!" ”
Yan Shenshi leaned back in his chair, "I said, Mr. Mayor, it seems that your salary level is not enough to pay the salaries of the others present?" And will the Treasury Department agree to such additional spending? ”
Gu Pengsi was silent for a moment, the expression on his face was a little embarrassed, "Of course I can't afford it!" However, some companies that cooperate with the government can contribute this money! ”
"Doesn't seem right! If something goes wrong with the company, they will all come to the mayor, and it is likely that you will be affected by the mayor! ”
"Huh!" Gu Pengsi seemed to be suppressing his inner emotions, and he forced out a little smile, "If that's the case, with my salary, just ask one or two!" ”
"Too little! With the current mode of operation of Extinct City, there are too many enemies," Yan Shenshi smiled, and then his face became serious, "Many people wish you died!" ”
"You're laughing, Captain Yan!" Gu Pengsi had no expression on his face at all, and he looked calm as water.
Yan Shenshi stood up and put his fist on the table, "We belong to the guard force of the Great Wall of the Border, work for the Blue Star Coalition Government, defend the last barrier of mankind, and take the safety of the Great Wall of the Border as our responsibility at all times, not here to be your personal bodyguard!" ”
He continued, his tone becoming heavier, "Our team members must have this awareness, no one will do your job, please don't fight the idea of guarding the troops in the future!" Yan Shenshi left his position,
"All of them are out and back to camp!" He took a few steps and stopped, "And Mr. Mayor, this meal of yours is really not delicious!" ”
"Thank you, Captain Yan, for your evaluation! But I hope Captain Yan will think about it carefully, the door is open and you are always welcome! Guppence sat there and tapped the armrest in response.
"No need, close the door, or I'm worried that someone will come in and it won't be good for you!"
