Chapter 596 Friends
Close to the north of the city, it is really similar to what Cao Hao described, the general construction has been completed, and occasionally some finishing construction teams are doing things such as polishing the ground and cleaning up debris.
The buildings and streets are noticeably better than the rest of the city, and they deserve to be described as "clean and tidy".
There are a lot of people in the main block in the north of the city, the atmosphere is also very good, the shouts are noisy and harmonious, Lin Qin saw many scenes of old ladies and children bargaining with shop shopkeepers, and there was no sense of urgency of war at all.
It's like another world.
The Shuai Mansion is located a little further north, covering a large area, the style is exquisite, obvious, and you can see that it is the Shuai Mansion from a distance.
On the left is a row of buildings similar to official offices, without Cao Hao's explanation, Lin Qin knew that this was the high-level office of the French Shuaijun, and behind these buildings were exquisite blue brick buildings, compared with wooden houses, there was less charm and more fortitude.
This is considered an "official district".
The overall pattern is very dumbfounded.
The houses stand side by side, separated by low walls, and there are many obviously transplanted flowers and trees on both sides of the small streets, which are similar in size and high ground, and are neatly arranged, giving people a sense of relaxation and tranquility.
In this area, there are relatively few lively shops, restaurants and other places.
What is more conspicuous is a canteen with a large area on the right, which is quite exquisitely decorated, and looks no less than the restaurants in Chang'an City.
At this time, it was very busy, there were cooks, men, carrying food, shouting trumpets, coming and going.
There are also some people who have just left the business day and occasionally stop to point to the food in the box to comment, saying things like waiting for a plate, and then mixed in some of their own preferences such as putting more sauces, etc., the chef immediately patted his chest and said that he would definitely do as required.
Cao Hao saw that Lin Qin was very interested, and explained with a smile: "I have said that the sky and the earth are big and the stomach is the biggest, so this canteen has taken a lot of effort, and when it comes to the meal, most of the people in the administrative department will go to this canteen to eat, and if the commander of the military department returns to the city, he will occasionally come over for a drink."
Most of the workers here are people from the original Erzizhuang, and the food will be delivered at a fixed point every day, and it is all fresh.
If Miss Lin is interested, you can come to visit in the future, you can also eat here, you can rest assured, there is a private room, no need to be disturbed by others, the environment is not bad, just like the original Dongli Restaurant...... By the way, there are also poems by my cousin and cousin!"
When Lin Qin heard the words of her cousin and cousin, she couldn't help but laugh and asked, "Is it still those?"
Cao Hao replied: "There are old ones and there are new ones. Minister Wang, they all like it, when they are busy, they are in groups, call a few pots of wine, chew the words together, shake their heads, although we and other rough people are not well understood, but occasionally mixed in them, follow the edification, although not to become a scholar, but it feels very interesting!"
Lin Qin was puzzled: "Minister Wang?"
Cao Hao explained: "It's Minister Wang Wanhong, now he is the head of the administration of Fangling City, except for the war, everything else has to listen to him." As for why he is called a minister, I don't really understand it, and I am stunned. ”
Lin Qin sighed, secretly thinking that people with skills will shine wherever they go.
Wang Wanhong was originally Feng Yi's Taishou, and he didn't say much credit for many years, but he was finally conscientious and his reputation was acceptable, which was already very remarkable.
Lin Qin once heard her grandfather Lin Yong evaluate Wang Wanhong, saying that he is a rare person in officialdom who can do practical things, and he is better than most people.
"Haozi!"
A man in his fifties in a chef's coat walked over with big strides, looking very enthusiastic, and he knew that he was very familiar with Cao Hao and belonged to the elder level.
He patted Cao Hao on the shoulder, "Didn't you go to the patrol team, why did you come back?"
Cao Hao said with a smile: "Although there are many things, but it is not difficult, deal with cats and dogs, the brothers are very hard-working, I will take the opportunity to be lazy, come back to taste Uncle Liu's craftsmanship, I don't eat for a few days, I miss it so much." ”
Uncle Liu smiled: "There are fatty fish in Qingsha Lake today, you kid really caught up with the ......"
Cao Hao said happily: "It seems that my luck is not bad!"
Several of his subordinates shouted, "Uncle Liu, what about us!"
Uncle Liu hurriedly said: "There are all of them, there are a lot, Minister Zhou just finished eating, and he also said that he didn't go to Qingsha Lake in the north, but he never found that the fish in it were so delicious...... Hey, he was a rich kid before, and he was usually in business, learning, and martial arts, so how do you know that. Moreover, how can those chefs compare with me, the dishes I cook are applauded by the owner!"
After a burst of boasting, he sighed, looked at Lin Qin, and asked, "Haozi, this little girl?"
Cao Hao coughed lightly and said seriously: "Uncle Liu, this is Miss Lin, a stunned friend, who went to our Zhuangzi a long time ago, but you were not there at that time...... Miss Lin, this is Uncle Liu, a famous chef!"
Lin Qin hurriedly saluted: "Uncle Liu is good!"
Uncle Liu gave him a boost and said gently: "Since Miss Lin is a friend of the owner, she doesn't need to be so polite!"
After saying that, he stared at Lin Qin for a long time, his mouth was amazed, and he muttered words such as handsome, good-looking, well-born, and really compatible with the owner.
The voice seemed to be small, but everyone could hear it, and the tone seemed to be picking on the daughter-in-law.
made Lin Qin blush.
Cao Hao relieved the siege and said: "Uncle Liu, what are you muttering all the time, everyone is embarrassed......
Uncle Liu muttered, and said in a low voice: "What do you kid know? The marriage of the owner of the village is a major matter that everyone in the Zhuangzi is concerned about, although there is already a Xiaoru girl, but how can one be enough, now such a big stall, can few children inherit it?"
If it weren't for the fear of delaying the golden time for the owner of the village to practice martial arts, maybe there would be little dolls, but Uncle Wei would have been looking forward to it for a long time!"
Lin Qin's head was lowered, and the roots of her ears were red.
Cao Hao hurriedly put his arm around Uncle Liu's shoulders, dragged a few steps away, and said, "You always go cook first...... The kid took Miss Lin back to the house, and he will go home!"
Uncle Liu snorted and muttered to himself: "That's right, I have to let the nurse and Aunt Jiang take a good look, and call my family to the house to have a look...... The little girl has a good body, she is definitely a good child, I can't be wrong with my vision!"
Lin Qin almost ran away.
Cao Hao took Uncle Liu away and smiled awkwardly at Lin Qin: "Miss Lin, don't care, those uncles and aunts in Zhuangzi like Zhang Luo's things and worry about them, but they are all kind." ”
Lin Qin whispered: "It's okay!"
Cao Hao snorted, "Then, let's go back to the house first!" "Can't find the latest chapter of the book you want to read?cough cough, it's not a problem, I recommend a public account, there is a young lady here to help you find the latest chapter, and chat with you!"
