Except for a new signboard, almost nothing has changed at Wang's Restaurant.

The decoration hasn't changed, the chef hasn't changed, the dishes haven't changed, the guys haven't changed, and of course, the shopkeeper and the boss have changed.

When Xu Fugui's family walked into the hotel, the smiling shopkeeper Zhou who used to always stand at the curved front desk was gone, and was replaced by a middle-aged man wearing blue standard clothes.

Xu Fugui looked at this person, blinked his eyes, and asked, "Brother Lu?" ”

Lu Yincai raised his head when he heard this, was stunned for a moment, and shouted in surprise: "Fugui? ”

"Hahaha, Brother Lu, it's really you."

He and Lu Yincai knew each other, and when they rescued Comrade Chen, Lu Yincai was also one of them.

However, weren't it only Du Yuzhi, Zhong Shouzheng and Comrade Chen who came out of the prison at that time, why did Lu Yincai suddenly appear, he thought that everyone else was dead.

Xu Fugui asked euphemistically, Lu Yincai laughed out loud and looked at the ceiling with embarrassment, "I have a big life, and I was shot twice in the leg." ”

"When the people in the southern army saw that I was not dead, they put me in prison, and I don't know what happened, and no one took care of me."

"It wasn't until a few months ago, after Yunxi County was taken over by our people, that I came out of prison, and after raising me for a while, County Magistrate Du arranged me to be the person in charge of the state-run hotel."

Xu Fugui nodded suddenly, his face full of sincerity, "Brother Lu, you have suffered." ”

Lu Yincai waved his hand, "What's this, I'm okay, everyone else is dead, and I can't even find the body, but I still remember the name of each of them." ”

Xu Fugui sighed, turned around and called over, and the three of them stood at the front desk to greet each other, and the original shallow friendship gradually deepened.

"By the way, you guys are going to eat, come with me, arrange a box for you, even if you come here for dinner in the future, there is a place at any time, but the price is indispensable to me, and the income of the hotel must be handed over."

"Haha, of course, business is official, and the food money must not be less."

Lu Yincai limped out of the front desk, holding two crutches in his hands, and then everyone realized that his right leg was not in the position from the knee down!

Lu Yincai looked at the silent crowd and smiled indifferently, "Let's go, I'll take you to the box, by the way, Fugui, what kind of work have you and Laishun been arranged?" ”

"I heard that you have two second-class merits and one third-class merit, and the work arranged must be better than mine, and I am only a third-class merit."

Xu Fugui followed his footsteps and did not help him, "I am now the party secretary in the village, and I will be the deputy party secretary in Shun." ”

"The branch secretary?"

Lu Yincai glanced at him strangely, "It shouldn't be, why is it a branch secretary, you are literate, and you have second-class merit, isn't it a grievance to be a branch secretary?" ”

"Harm, I don't care about the size of the position, we are just a brick, where we need to move, let alone being a branch secretary, just don't arrange a job for me, I am still willing."

Lu Yincai smiled and pointed at him, "Fugui, your kid speaks the same way as before, what you think in your heart is never the same as what you say, but County Magistrate Du and they like your cheeky appearance." ”

Xu Fugui looked at him seriously, "I don't have a set of words in my heart, I am a straightforward person, and what I think in my heart is what I say." ”

Lu Yincai skillfully went upstairs on crutches, "Okay, I estimate that your branch secretary is only temporary, maybe it won't be long before County Magistrate Du will arrange a better job for you." ”

Lai Shun scratched the back of his head with a smile, "Brother Lu, you really guessed right, Sister Yuzhi said that my brother is just the acting branch secretary." ”

Lu Yincai raised his eyebrows, "Look, I'll just say, you still don't admit it." ”

Xu Fugui opened the door of the box, "There is no shadow, I am satisfied to be a branch secretary." ”

Everyone came to the box and sat down, pricking up their ears to listen to them, especially Liu Cuiping, who looked at Fugui's eyes full of admiration, and whispered something to Jiazhen from time to time, and Jiazhen occasionally looked up proudly.

"Brother Lu, are you free, let's have a drink together?"

Lu Yincai's eyes lit up, "Okay, then drink some, I don't have any work, and I'm idle every day." ”

Subsequently, he called the waiter and asked people to bring two bottles of good wine, and Xu Fugui ordered a lot of dishes by the way.

Roast duck, Kung Pao chicken, plum cabbage button meat, scrambled eggs, peanuts, braised fish, Lu Yincai's eyelids jumped when he saw it, and he hurriedly said: "Enough is enough, Fugui, the price here is not cheap." ”

Xu Fugui waved his hand indifferently, "I have a hundred yuan for my second-class merit, and it won't be in the way to spend ten yuan on a meal." ”

That's right, don't look at how much he ordered, but with two bottles of wine, it is estimated that it costs less than ten dollars.

The dishes were served one after another, perhaps because of Lu Yincai's relationship, the portions of each dish were very large, and the color and flavor were complete, and the chef had obviously put in great effort.

Drinking wine, Xu Fugui looked at the dishes on the table and suddenly asked, "Brother Lu, where do the ingredients in the restaurant come from?" ”

Lu Yincai said without thinking: "Where else can I get it, I bought it in the vegetable market." ”

Xu Fugui picked up his wine glass and said seriously: "I won't tell you, the most famous thing in our Xujia Village is the water quality and soil quality, the vegetables grown, the chickens and ducks fed, and people from other places are rushing to buy them." ”

"Brother Lu, you don't have to waste time and energy to go to the vegetable market to buy, let the people from our village deliver it to the door of the restaurant every morning, the quality is definitely better than the vegetable market."

Lu Yincai raised his eyebrows and teased: "Fugui, you are really a good branch secretary, thinking about your village wholeheartedly, right?" ”

Xu Fugui smiled, "I'm also for the restaurant, and you don't know the dishes in the vegetable market, they're not fresh." ”

Lu Yincai waved his hand indifferently, "Okay, I'll call the purchaser up, you and he have a good talk, but remember, there must be no cheating." ”

Xu Fugui patted his chest, "Don't worry, you don't know who I am?" ”

Lu Yincai touched the cup with him, and after drinking, he got up on crutches to go to the toilet, and called the buyer to come up by the way.

After he went out, Xu Fugui patted his red face and quickly ate a piece of duck meat to fill his stomach.

"Brother Fugui, you are so powerful." Liu Cuiping suddenly said such a sentence.

"I'm a big fart." Xu Fugui said with a smile.

Liu Cuiping shook her head and said seriously, "Anyway, it's very powerful, I feel like I know a lot of people, and there are people who greet you wherever you go." ”

Xu Fugui laughed, compared with the nest bag in his previous life, the development of this life is much smoother, at least in the original West County, he has a good relationship with the upper class, and he doesn't have to farm with his back to the loess all the time.

Xu's father and Xu's mother looked at him with relief, and Jiazhen added him a bowl of rice and told him to drink less wine.
