As soon as he came out of the exit, Zhang Lan saw Zhang Hu waiting on the steps. He greeted him with a smile and started walking out.

Getting in the car, Zhang Hu asked, "Where are you going to eat?" Something to eat? ”

"Let's go somewhere closer, let's have a drink. It is not suitable in the city. Zhang Lan said with a smile.

"Then let's go to the town, my friend has opened a new barbecue restaurant on the side of the road from the town to our village, and there is no drunk driving check there. If I drank too much, I threw the car away, and it would only take ten minutes to walk to our village. Zhang Hu thought for a while and said.

"Okay, just as you say."

Zhang Hu drove to the barbecue restaurant in Maji Town, got out of the car, Zhang Lan looked at the environment, and said that it was in the town, but in fact he was out of town.

A lonely row of two-story buildings was built on the side of the road, looking at the built iron fence and hardened pavement, Zhang Lan asked Zhang Hu, who had just gotten out of the car: "This was only built this year, and I didn't pay attention to it last time I came back." ”

After locking the car, Zhang Hu led the way to the yard and said: "It was only built this year, and I originally planned to make a van distribution point here, but then something happened and I didn't talk about it, so it was empty here." Now I've made a barbecue restaurant to see how the business goes. ”

Zhang Lan said speechlessly: "This difference is too big, and the place is not very good, it is a good place in the city, but it is a bit remote in our town, and there is not even a figure around." ”

"The crossroads in the town are checked for drunk driving at least ten days a month, or every other day, and this side is a little better. This is a provincial road, and the reputation spreads, and even the business of passing cars will not be able to eat. Zhang Hu explained with a smile.

Entering the courtyard, Zhang Hu said hello to the chef who was grilling skewers, and after the people who were eating here saw Zhang Lan, several people also opened their mouths to say hello.

Most of the blind Zhang Lan didn't know the names of the people, but they didn't show it on their faces, and after greeting with a smile, they entered the box in the house with Zhang Hu.

It is said to be a box, but it is actually a booth by the wall. Originally, the house was used as a car dealership, and the first floor was opened except for a few pillars and stairs.

The tables against the wall are separated by a red brick wall of more than a meter, on which translucent plastic panels are embedded. After finding a table and sitting down, Zhang Hu said with a smile: "I told someone, let him have a few things first, and then talk about the rest." ”

"In this environment, the investment is not small." Zhang Lan looked around and said.

Zhang Hu shook his head and said in a low voice: "It didn't cost much, the red bricks and cement didn't cost anything, and the glass plate didn't cost money, the whole barbecue restaurant cost a little money for a few tables and labor in the house, and the rest were all made for him by my friend and his sister." ”

"What does his sister do?" Zhang Lan asked casually.

Zhang Hu just wanted to speak, but the waiter had already come over with cold dishes, and only after the waiter put a few dishes one by one and left with the tray did Zhang Hu speak: "His sister is from the bank, specializing in credit." These things are either debts or gifts, and the table doesn't cost money, he thinks everything is not good-looking, so he bought the same one. This is also the second-hand price for buying new flowers. ”

"Relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, relying on the water to draft water, this is not envied by others. But didn't you open a dealership? Why don't you open it? Listen to you, this family is not short of money, huh? Zhang Lan was a little curious.

Zhang Hu explained: "How can a car dealer not lack money, he wants to drive, and his sister originally supported it." However, after the house was built, there seemed to be a meeting at the bank, and his sister wouldn't let him do it. said that he couldn't make money doing this business now, so let him wait and see. He was idle and bored at home, so he opened a barbecue restaurant. ”

"It's good to open a barbecue restaurant, but at his cost, he can't lose much money." Zhang Lan said with a smile.

Zhang Hu smiled and said: "I don't know how much I lose, but I definitely can't make money." Half a month after opening, these friends around him alone ate him for half a month, and I estimated that he didn't even earn enough wages every day, let alone anything else. ”

"From afar, I heard someone talking bad about me, and when I heard it, it was really you Zhang Hu, who ate and drank me, and I didn't say a good word. Sister Wang, add a few more hot dishes to this table. ”

A hearty laugh came to his ears with the sound, and a chubby body squeezed into the seat next to Zhang Hu, grabbed Zhang Hu's shoulder and greeted Zhang Lan with a smile: "Hello Zhang Lan, I'm Pan Ming, the owner of this shop, and Zhang Hu's friend." ”

Pan Ming sat on the chair with a body full of flesh, looking at his figure, he must have risen by 200 catties. Zhang Lan also responded with a smile: "Hello." ”

Pan Ming patted Zhang Hu's shoulder with a smile: "Introduction, I already know your brother." ”

Zhang Hu rolled his eyes and patted back and said, "What is there to introduce here, if you have anything to say, you can just tell Zhang Lan directly." ”

Then he said to Zhang Lan: "Zhang Lan, you also saw it, this is the owner of this shop, and I often drink with him." I just said that I was one of the people who drank him for half a month after opening for half a month. ”

Zhang Lan smiled and didn't speak, and Pan Ming on the side said with a smile: "Zhang Lan, don't be surprised. I heard of you when I didn't know Zhang Hu, and after I met Zhang Hu, I wanted to know you even more. It's just that you've been away from home, and you've never had a chance to meet. I finally met people today. ”

Zhang Lan said with a smile: "Then let's drink a few more drinks today, it's been so long that we finally met, and we have a few more drinks to celebrate." ”

Pan Ming picked up the wine bottle on the table, glanced at it and said with a smile: "Even if you don't say Zhang Lan, I will also give you a few glasses today." Later, I will ask Sister Wang to change the bottle of wine, I have good wine in the store, I just found it. ”

After the waiter Sister Wang changed the wine, Pan Ming took the wine bottle and unscrewed the lid, began to pour wine into the wine glass on the table, and said in his mouth: "Zhang Lan, you are a doctor, you can do as much as you want today, there is no need to drink too much, Zhang Hu will touch the two of us tonight." ”

Zhang Hu looked at Pan Ming holding the wine bottle and poured the wine and said with a smile: "Zhang Lan is still your face, this Pan Ming will directly open the wine." Even on the first day of opening, I didn't see Pan Ming bring me any good wine. ”

"Dream Blue is already very good in our town, okay, how good are you going to let me use it?" Pan Ming said with a smile.

Picking up the wine glass, Pan Ming Dynasty saluted Zhang Lan and said: "Zhang Lan, you are different from me, I just drink every day, and I am not afraid of affecting anything." It's not a kind word, it's real. It's still the same sentence, Zhang Lan, you can do whatever you want. ”

After drinking and starting to eat, Zhang Lan said with a smile: "I know in Kyoto Zhang Hu that I am usually busy, and occasionally when I come back, I am in a hurry to finish my errands and leave." I'm coming back this time, too, maybe I'll finish my errands tomorrow, and I'll leave again that night. So if there's anything Pan Ming, just say it directly, and I'm okay with it just now. ”
