After three rounds of drinking, the dishes were not completely served, and Yan Hongtao looked at the surroundings and saw that there was no one around, and began to wait for a showdown with Zheng Yuan.

"Lao Zheng, I won't go around the bend with you. Recently, the price of coal has been rising, and the price of bricks has fallen instead of rising. Do you think you can get a batch of low-cost coal? Don't worry, if this thing is done, you will definitely have a lot of benefits. ”

Zheng Yuan put down his chopsticks, he sighed, and said, "This thing is really not easy to do." ”

"Why is it so bad? Sales piece, you are the boss, don't you have the final say? Besides, the relationship between our sons and daughters, please do something, it's still so difficult? ”

Wanyan Hongtao put down the sprinkling cup and looked at Zheng Yuan with displeasure.

Zheng Yuan smiled bitterly and shook his head, "It's this family affair that caused trouble." ”

"What do you mean?"

"Before Pingzi and Xiaoxin got engaged, I didn't know that our mine manager was Pingzi's uncle. Since Mine Chief Zhou knew that our two families had become sons and daughters, he scolded me. After that, he ignored me, and he was wary of me everywhere, staring so tightly that I didn't dare to move. ”

"Now he's angry, I can't hit him at the muzzle. If he lifts me up, it won't do any of us any good, don't you think? ”

Zheng Yuan took a sip of wine from his wine glass, looked at Yan Hongtao, and prayed in his heart. This is not just a rhetoric, but also a fact, and the root of his sleepless night last night.

Wanyan Hongtao didn't expect that Zheng Yuan, the old fox, would use Zhou Hua to pressure himself.

Zhou Hua has always hated Wanyan Hongtao because of his sister Zhou Ting.

After Zhou Ting's death, he has been ordering zero sales of coal in Zhouhua Coal Mine. He also used all his strength to target Wanyan Hongtao everywhere, and never provided him with any resources and convenience.

This is also the reason why Wanyan Hongtao has been worried about the source of coal.

Wanyan Hongtao's expression was displeased, and his tone was sour, "The tiger also has a nap!" ”

"But at this time, you really can't act rashly. He is now angry, and in a special period, we all have to protect ourselves. ”

Zheng Yuan knew that his remarks would not take long. But there is no other way at the moment, using Zhou Hua to press him, and it is a while to be able to delay for a while.

"Hmph. This former uncle, I know him better than anyone else. It's so big-hearted, after so many years, he doesn't plan to let me go. ”

Wanyan Hongtao clenched the wine glass tightly, his teeth chattering with hatred. Now is not the time to tear his face, he can only endure it.

Okay, he wants to see how long Zheng Yuan, the old fox, can use this rhetoric.

Zheng Yuan snorted coldly in his heart, if you have a little humanity, you will not come to this point.

The air pressure is low here.

Li Chao and Dang Xiaoyan behind the screen, both of them also have their own thoughts, and no one can eat anymore.

Wanyan Hongtao's despicable true face gradually appeared in front of Dang Xiaoyan one by one, if she hadn't heard it with her own ears, she would never have imagined that the businessman who looked like a decent man and a gentleman would be this Dexing.

Abusing his own biological children, opportunistic, forgetting his righteousness, and for the sake of profit, he even promised his daughter who was still in school to the other party, which was extremely filthy......

Li Chao was also shocked, he clenched his fists, and kept thinking about Pingzi's marriage in his mind...... Wan Yanping is engaged? W-How can there be such a thing? Isn't she still in school? She's still, she's still young......

That's a lot of information, it's amazing.

Li Chao looked at his mother again. She lost her husband at such a young age, but she always looked so elegant, beautiful, confident and calm.

She was never sad or sad, and even in the days when she had just lost her husband, she never collapsed, but she was so strong.

Look at her at this time, she is obviously disappointed in her heart, but she is still so confident and calm. But Li Chao saw that her hands were trembling, shaking violently.

It's time for her to wake up.

At that moment, Li Chao also woke up. What a ridiculous and childish thing he has done in the past six months!

After his father died, he and Dang Xiaoyan were both lost and confused. Later, they both accepted the facts, and each wanted to be strong in front of each other, and both wanted to be each other's fortresses.

But no one ever communicated with each other.

The day Li Chao discovered Dang Xiaoyan and Yan Hongtao was the morning of the Chinese New Year's Eve. On that day, all the beautiful images of his mother collapsed in his heart, and it was less than half a year since his father died!

He couldn't accept this kind of thing at all, he felt like he was going crazy, squatting in the toilet, he almost threw up.

Those three days and three nights in the Internet café were the darkest moments of his life. Since then, he has tried his best to torture himself and Dang Xiaoyan.

He never thought of having a good talk with her, whether she was also bitter and difficult, whether she was also anesthetizing herself and punishing herself.

From beginning to end, he only cared about his own sadness.

Moreover, Li Chao thinks that this kind of thing can't be said at all, and he can't even hint at it.

How can a son go and talk to his mother about these despicable men and women? He can't talk about it! He also wanted to save face for his mother.

Therefore, he always wanted to use the method of torturing himself to make Dang Xiaoyan conscious and repentant. And then, as if nothing had happened.

He finally understood how ridiculous and stupid he was.

Just like what Wan Yanping said at the back wall of the school, everything he did, his self-willingness, failed to change anything.

When Li Chao and Dang Xiaoyan left, Wan Yan Ping was still in the back kitchen, she didn't know at all, Wan Yan Hongtao and Zheng Yuan would mention the engagement in their conversation, and they didn't know that Li Chao also knew her secret.

Except for Li Chao, no one knew that Wan Yanping was also present. Later, everyone left, and the hotel was quiet.

The proprietress took Yan Ping's hand and refused to let her go. I had to ask her to help try the dishes, and said, "It's not easy to come here, and I've helped with things, help me try the dishes, Chef Tang has recently learned several new dishes." ”

Chef Tang brought up a few braised dishes prepared in advance, and the boss, the proprietress and Wan Yanping were all busy for a few hours, so they had time to sit down and try them seriously.

The dishes in Guanzhong are mostly cold dishes, and the methods are basically the same. In autumn and winter, simple cold dishes are not so popular. Several large restaurants have opened in the town, each with its own signature dishes, and they are all working their own dishes in order to compete with each other.

The proprietress said that they wanted to make lo-mei, but there was no authentic recipe, so Master Tang researched it himself.

The three of them ate new dishes, and the taste was not bad, but it always seemed to be something bad. Master Tang is a little decadent, the key to braised vegetables is the recipe of marinade, if you can't learn the authentic recipe, the taste is much worse than others'.

Wan Yanping asked Master Tang, "What about buying his formula?" ”

Master Tang and the proprietress both laughed.

This kid is naïve and doesn't understand this business, and people have ancestral secret recipes, which are not passed on at all. Some of them are carefully copied formulas based on those time-honored brands, although they cannot be compared with time-honored brands. But it's also not far from ten, and people can't sell it to you easily.

Master Tang had no choice but to wilt and clean up the dishes, "Hey, continue to study, no matter how good it is, you can only think of other ways." ”
