Li Mingzhe asked for a bottle of Moutai and a bottle of Great Wall dry red, and ordered a bottle of nutrition express for Bai Lu.

Before the dishes were ready, Li Mingzhe pulled Gao Zhan to dry three glasses of liquor.

Gao Zhan could see that Li Mingzhe seemed to be in a bad mood, and he didn't pretend to be bad, although his alcohol consumption was not good, he still sacrificed his life to accompany the gentleman and accompany Li Mingzhe to drink stuffy wine.

Li Mingzhe didn't say, and Gao Zhan didn't ask.

After a few cups, Lee Ming-che's white cheeks appeared a light red.

The small wine cup of about eight coins filled the fifth glass, and Li Mingzhe held the white porcelain glass in front of him, "You don't ask me why I asked you to drink with me." ”

"The eldest brother who can let me know will naturally tell me, and if it's inconvenient for me to ask, it's useless." Gao Zhan put a peeled base-tailed shrimp on the white porcelain plate in front of Li Mingzhe, and said with a calm smile: "Big brother, eat some food, it's easy to get drunk when you drink fast wine on an empty stomach." ”

Li Mingzhe stretched out his chopsticks to hold the shrimp and stuck the old vinegar in the small bowl, put it in his mouth, and looked at Gao Zhan with a smile while chewing: "It seems that last time, your kid turned around before the ghost gate closed, and became much more mature and stable." ”

"The one who is close to the red and the ink is black, I have been friends with you in the village for more than half a year, so I have to learn something from you." Gao Zhan said with a smile while teaching Bai Lu how to peel shrimp: "Probably this is subtle." ”

"I'm being hollowed out now." Li Mingzhe took a small sip of the wine cup with a "tsk", then put the wine cup down, picked up the box of special red pandas on the table and threw it to Gao Zhan, and lit it with a lighter surnamed Yi, and said with a wry smile in the clouds: "In the Propaganda Department, I have become a big idler who can't do anything." ”

Basically, through the last incident, the officialdom of Phoenix basically knew about Li Mingzhe, an airborne soldier, and no one dared to offend him at all, just imagine...... Just offended his brother and made such a big move, if this provoked him, what would be good?

However, there are two sides to everything, Li Mingzhe's current reputation is famous, but it is a murderous name, and he can't afford to provoke everyone but hides, every time he meets Li Mingzhe, those guys immediately nod their heads and smile, and they don't give Li Mingzhe a chance to speak and get closer.

If you have the heart to do something, others can't say that it is yin and yang that violate it, but if you are ordered to do one thing, if you don't tell it, you will never do it, this can't stand it, no matter how big Li Mingzhe's ability is, he can't do everything alone.

Listening to Li Mingzhe's nagging, although Gao Zhan had never entered the officialdom, he had read more officialdom novels such as official roads, official roads, official roads, official roads, and official businessmen at the starting point, and more or less understood the doorways in officialdom, he lit a cigarette and said, "They may think that you are here to gild." ”

Listening to Gao Zhan's words, Li Mingzhe smiled bitterly again, shook his head and said, "Isn't it?" They all thought that I wouldn't stay here for long, and they didn't know when they would leave, and no one dared to get too close to me, for fear that I would leave after spending the money, and they would all be cold here, hey......"

"Even if I'm here to gild, I have to have gold to plate!" Li Mingzhe drank the remaining wine in the wine cup with his head up, and took the empty cup and slammed it on the table, "These grandsons are now avoiding me one by one, as if I am some kind of fierce god, in the Propaganda Department, I have become a deaf and blind waste, and I can't do anything!" ”

Picked up the half-empty Moutai for Li Mingzhe, Gao Zhan first drank the wine in his cup, and then poured it, "I don't know about this officialdom, but I know that no matter what kind of circle it takes, you can stay in Baijia Village for three years, as far as your career is concerned, your current situation is a little better than before, and if you want to hurry, it is not a good thing to wait and see." ”

Li Mingzhe called Gao Zhan to drink with him today, purely to find someone to scratch his hair, although he knew many people in Fengcheng, but only Gao Zhan could make him count without fortification. He didn't expect Gao Zhan to help him with advice before, after all, in his eyes, Gao Zhan was still a stunned student who didn't understand anything.

But Gao Zhan's words just now couldn't help but impress Li Mingzhe with him.

Lee Ming-che looked at Gao Zhan as if he was looking at an alien, "It seems that writing novels can really increase people's knowledge!" Gao Zhan, you kid! ”

Feeling a little uncomfortable being stared at by Li Mingzhe, Gao Zhan hurriedly used a toast to divert Li Mingzhe's attention, "I'm talking nonsense, don't take it seriously, I toast you, I wish you a rise in your career and open up the situation as soon as possible." ”

With a "ding" sound, the two touched the glass, and then raised their heads and took a sip.

Putting the wine glass on the table, Li Mingzhe shook his head and sighed: "However, things are not as simple as you think, time is life, now I have to make political achievements and prove my ability, only by proving my ability, the family can possibly put me on the table, and it is okay if I don't produce results for a long time, but if I am always in this way, I am afraid that I will also be named a gentleman by the family and be politically abandoned." ”

Listening to Li Mingzhe's words, Gao Zhan couldn't help sighing, ordinary people are envious of Li Mingzhe, but few people know that in fact, he wants to be on the throne, which is more difficult than ordinary people, and the Li family is not only Li Mingzhe is a man.

The country is the home of everyone, so it ...... No matter what your status is, if you don't have the ability, you will never be allowed to enter the high-level, the country is everyone's home, unless you prove that you have that ability, otherwise, even if you are the emperor's son, there is absolutely no chance to enter the peak of power.

In fact, the so-called country is the aggregation of families, and countless families constitute the country, and the interests of the country determine the interests of too many families, so ...... Unless you have the ability to make the country stronger and more prosperous, it will be difficult for you to come to power.

And although Lee Ming-che has a very hard background, he must prove his ability to be able to get support, from this point of view, Lee Ming-che is not more advantageous than anyone else, and even more strict requirements, those who are capable, those who are incapable, there is no favor to talk about, no one will allow a loser to hold power, because that will corrupt the whole country, if the country is defeated, how can the family exist?

Now what makes Li Mingzhe most anxious is that he has been completely hollowed out in Phoenix, if he can't change this situation for a long time, it will directly prove that he is incapable, with such a strong background, but he has not been able to open up the situation in a small county like Phoenix, and it is almost inevitable to be politically abandoned.

Frowning, Gao Zhan thought hard, but unfortunately, although he really wanted to help Lee Mingzhe find a way out, how could this matter be so simple? Interlaced lines are like mountains, and the knowledge of officialdom is by no means something that can be figured out by reading a few novels, and the water in it is deep.

Li Mingzhe saw Bai Lu sitting there like a little daughter-in-law, staring at Gao Zhan with big watery eyes, and he didn't eat much vegetables, so he smiled at Bai Lu and said, "Lulu, why don't you eat vegetables, don't you like to eat these?" ”

Hearing this, Bai Lu hurriedly picked up the chopsticks and carefully sandwiched the plate of steamed sea bass in front of him, put them into Yan Hong's small mouth and chewed them gently, and after swallowing the fish meat in his mouth, he replied weakly: "I'm full, these dishes are delicious." ”

Bai Lu, who has lived in Baijia Village since she was a child and has never been out of the mountains or into the city at all, has never eaten this kind of meal in such a luxury star hotel, looking at the table full of exquisite dishes, she is a little reluctant to eat. In the village, she had hardly seen Gao Zhan drinking, just now she saw Gao Zhan and Li Mingzhe pouring this high degree of wine into her stomach cup after glass, she was afraid that her Gao Zhan brother would get drunk, so she had been paying attention to Gao Zhan. You must know that under Grandma Bai's words and deeds, Bai Lu has long regarded herself as Gao Zhan's little daughter-in-law in her heart.

"Gao Zhan, you take care of your Lulu, and I won't have much to do." Li Mingzhe took the bottle of Moutai that was about to be drunk and said with a smile: "Don't drag you to drink with me, otherwise if your kid gets drunk, your Lulu won't have to blame me to death." ”

was flushed by Li Mingzhe's words, Bai Lu lowered his head and didn't dare to look at Li Mingzhe more, biting his lower lip, his slender fingers kept pulling the corners of his clothes.

"Okay, I'm going to have to drink high if I drink it again." Gao Zhan is not reckless, after all, he still has to code words at night, and he has to go to school tomorrow, so if he is really drunk, he will inevitably make a mistake.

"Brother, drink some milk, this can cure hangover." Bai Lu asked softly, holding the nutrition express in his hand and pouring most of the glass into the unused red wine goblet crystal cup in front of Gao Zhan.

Gao Zhan drank more than half of the goblin crystal cup in one gulp, wiped the milk stains on the corner of his mouth with a wet face towel, looked at Bai Lu and asked, "I didn't see you eat much just now, are you really full?" ”

"There are so many dishes, and they are so beautiful, I don't even know which one to eat." Bai Lu replied in a low voice with a red face.

"All-you-can-eat!" Gao Zhan suddenly thought that this was the first time he had taken Bai Lu to a big meal, and it was estimated that she hadn't gotten used to it in such a richly decorated box, so he turned the turntable on the table, and put a little bit in Bai Lu's bowl with each plate, and muttered while sandwiching his mouth: "A little wild boar, a little braised hoof tendons, and another hairy crab...... Soon a bowl was piled up.

"Brother, don't want it, how can I finish eating so much." Bai Lu hurriedly picked up the bowl and flashed aside, not letting Gao Zhan continue to add vegetables to it, Bai Gao Zhan glanced at it, and said in his heart, stinky brother, feed people as piglets!

"Lulu is still comfortable in school, right?" Li Mingzhe held a cigarette between the two fingers of his right hand, held his right elbow with his left hand, and looked at Gao Zhan with a smile and asked.

"It's basically okay, it's just not very gregarious." Gao Zhan took the bag of special red pandas on the table, and also ordered a branch and frowned while sucking: "I don't have to worry about her study, it's just that the boys in the school are like flies, a little annoying." ”

Looking at Xiao Bailu, who was already tinging, how eye-catching she looked, thinking of the turmoil that Gao Zhan caused in the hospital last time, Li Mingzhe smiled and shook his head, a beautiful girl like Bai Lu is the focus of men's attention wherever she goes, fortunately, Gao Zhan didn't bring Lu Ying's enchantress into the city, otherwise, it would definitely be more troublesome than Bai Lu.

"Now that she has walked out of Baijia Village, she will have to adapt to urban life sooner or later, and she will have to come into contact with this complex society where desires are rampant." Li Mingzhe turned his gaze to Gao Zhan's face and said in a deep voice: "The school is relatively simple, and you can't stop her from socializing with people because of trouble." You have to slowly teach her how to protect herself, there are some troubles you can block for her, if there is something that can't be avoided, you don't need to be afraid, there will always be a way to solve it. ”

"Hmm!" Gao Zhan nodded, "By the way, big brother, I came here just now, and I happened to meet Liu Yaxiong at the intersection of the pagoda and chatted with him, and he asked me to say hello to you on his behalf." ”

Li Mingzhe bowed his head slightly, pondered for a while, and said: "You and Liu Yaxiong don't know each other, you can contact him when you have time, occasionally make a phone call or something, but don't come and go too closely, keep a little distance appropriately, places like schools, sometimes they are better than ordinary people." ”

Gao Zhan burped at this time, felt a churning in his stomach, and hurriedly got up and ran to the bathroom in the box, vomited wildly at the flush toilet, and when he couldn't vomit, he used his index finger to dig it into his throat until he emptied all the things he had just eaten in his stomach.

Hearing the sound of vomiting coming from the bathroom, Bai Lu quickly got up and ran to the door of the bathroom, and asked anxiously, "Brother, brother, what's wrong with you?" ”

"It's okay, just spit it out." Gao Zhan stood in front of the washbasin and turned on the faucet and coughed, washed his face with tap water in his hand, pulled out a large handful of paper towels from the tissue box hanging on the wall, and wiped the water droplets on his face, then looked at himself in the mirror like a red-faced Guan Gong, and took a long breath with a wry smile.

"Brother, are you really okay?" Bai Lu came in and helped Gao Zhan, and asked with concern in his eyes.

Shaking his head, Gao Zhan smiled: "It's really okay, I was a little drunk just now." ”

After returning to the wine table, Li Mingzhe looked at Gao Zhan and quipped: "Looking at the way you drank before, I thought you had a good amount of wine!" Would you like to do it again? ”

"Gotta get it, big brother, just spare me." Gao Zhan waved his hand again and again: "How can I compare to the alcohol (long-standed) test of your officials, I still honestly pull down some food." ”

"Since you've vomited, let's drink some red wine to nourish your stomach." Lee Ming-che plucked the Great Wall's dry red like a pis, poured a third of it into an empty crystal goblet, and turned the turntable to turn the glass of red wine in front of Gao Zhan.

"Brother Gao Zhan can't drink anymore, if you want to drink, I'll drink with you." Bai Lu stared at Li Mingzhe with big eyes, snatched the glass of red wine in front of Gao Zhan angrily, raised his head and drank it, and put the empty glass on the table, "Come again!" ”

"Yo! Xiao Bailu, does your heart hurt your brother Gao Zhan? Lee Ming-che was stunned at first, and then laughed.

Gao Zhan took the empty cup from Bai Lu's hand and said with a smile: "Lulu, red wine is different from white wine, big brother cares about me, drinking a little in moderation can really nourish your stomach, don't mess around." ”

"I've read it on the Internet and said that red wine is more drunk than white wine." Bai Lu pouted and looked at Li Mingzhe with a cold face.

"Then you're not afraid of getting drunk?" Lee Ming-che deliberately teased Bai Lu and said with a smile.

"No, when my father was here, I could drink a lot of steamed grain wine at home." Bai Lu pursed her lips and glanced at Li Mingzhe.

"I can't see that Xiao Bailu is still a little wine fairy." Li Mingzhe laughed and said: "I have tasted the grain wine in the village, it is absolutely high-grade wine, Lulu said, how much can you drink?" ”

Bai Lu thought for a while and replied, "I haven't calculated it carefully, but I definitely won't get drunk if I drink seven or eight taels." ”

"Seven, eight, two? I'm leaning on it. Li Mingzhe stared at Bai Lu like a monster, and the expression on his face was very exaggerated, "I can pour the grain wine in your village after drinking three taels!" ”

"I'm dizzy, isn't I?" Gao Zhan obviously felt a little unconvinced, "Lulu, can you really drink?" ”

Bai Lu was obviously a little unhappy that Gao Zhan doubted her ability, pointed to the empty bottle of Moutai on the table, and said angrily: "If you don't believe it, let him bring the bottle over and I will prove it to you." ”

"I said Gao Zhan, why don't we really try it?" Li Mingzhe discussed with Gao Zhan with great interest and said with a smile: "Practice is the only criterion for testing the truth, and for capable students, we still have to give them the opportunity to perform." ”

Gao Zhan looked at Bai Lu, and then looked at Moutai on the table, he didn't pay much attention to Li Mingzhe's official tone, but told Bai Lu that she had such a large amount of alcohol, and he really didn't believe it, so he hesitated, "Then let's try it?" ”

As if he was afraid that Gao Zhan would regret it, Lee Mingzhe immediately turned his head and shouted towards the door of the box: "Waiter! ”

A tall waitress wearing a red cheongsam pushed the door in, "Boss, what do you need?" ”

"Another bottle of Moutai." Lee Ming-che said in a loud voice in a good mood.

The waitress wrote it down on the bill, smiled and asked, "Do you need anything else?" ”

"Lulu, would you like to drink some more juice or something?" Lee Ming-cheol asked with a smile at Bai Lu.

Bai Lu bit her lower lip and thought about it, pointing to the empty nutrition express in front of her, "Let's have another bottle of this." ”

"Three bottles of Nutrition Express." Li Mingzhe commanded, and then waved his hand, "This is the case first, and then call if necessary, send it over quickly." ”

Within two minutes, the waitress walked in with a tray with a bottle of Moutai and three bottles of Nutrition Express, put them on the table, and said with a smile: "Please use it slowly." Then exit the box.

Li Mingzhe opened Moutai, poured a glass into the small wine cup, took the cup in one hand and the Moutai bottle in the other, walked to the empty seat to the left of Bai Lu and sat down, and handed the small wine cup to Bai Lu.

Bai Lu didn't think much about it, took the wine cup and tasted it lightly, then drank it in one gulp, stretched out her pink tongue and circled around her red soft lips, "This wine is much better than the grain wine at home before." Brother Mingzhe, this wine glass is too small, let's change to a big one! ”

Without hesitation, Lee Ming-che took a large goblet glass for drinking red wine, and poured it full, at least three taels.

So, under the gaze of the two big men, Li Mingzhe and Gao Zhan, Bai Lu picked up the full glass of white wine and drank it in one gulp on his back. She seemed to drink not wine, but water.

"Again." Bai Lu put the empty glass on the table, raised her wrist and wiped the wine stain on her lips with her sleeve.

Lee Ming-che and Gao Zhan You look at me, I look at you, and both of them have obvious expressions of disbelief on their faces.

"Damn, isn't this wine?" Gao Zhan snatched the wine bottle in Li Mingzhe's hand and sniffed it at the mouth of the bottle, yes, it is a pure Moutai flavor!

"I said brother, is the amount of alcohol in your Bailu a bit of a big blow to our two big guys?" Li Mingzhe looked at Gao Zhan with a wry smile and said, "Look at her posture, she can really drink, don't try again." ”

"Big, big, very big!" Gao Zhan nodded and replied.
