When it came to food, Hu Changqing was usually very particular. When he said that it was very good, the dishes were really good. The most special thing was that the taste of the dishes here was completely different from the current mainstream cuisine. It could be considered unique. As a riverside city, opening a restaurant that mainly sold freshwater seafood was also considered to be a capital increase for Jiang City.
Seeing Old Wang being praised by Hu Changqing, his ordinary and honest face showed some embarrassment. Gu Ming put away his smile and said,"Old Wang, that's enough. Don't suffer here anymore. Go and cook the remaining ingredients. We'll pack them up and take them away later.”Only then did Hu Changqing know that the middle-aged woman who had been busy all this time was the boss 'wife.
Old Wang immediately ran back to the kitchen. Gu Ming shook his head with a bitter smile and said to Hu Changqing,""I haven't told them about that yet. I've known my in-laws for more than 20 years. They're both honest and dutiful people. When they see that their skills are wasted, they can't help but want to recommend them to the director.”
Hu Changqing smiled indifferently and said,"You know that I like this kind of food. Since I know that there's such a good food, of course I have to do my best to promote it. Moreover, the food is good. You should discuss it with the boss as soon as possible. Oh right, I'm going to invite my uncle to try it out when the time is right.”
Hearing Hu Changqing's words, Gu Ming couldn't help but feel happy for his old friend. When he heard the last sentence, a strange light suddenly flashed across his face, and his expression became lively.
In fact, Hu Changqing had always been aware of Gu Ming's thoughts. Although Gu Ming had turned to him, he really valued his second uncle and uncle. After tonight's meal, he had a better impression of Gu Ming, so he decided to help him. He also wanted to let his uncle's fiery eyes observe him.
As they ate and chatted, they actually finished the four dishes on the table. It could be seen how delicious these dishes were. Hu Changqing was a little full from eating. He burped and said,"Old Gu, you're too mean. You actually made me eat such delicious food so late.”
Gu Ming could only respond with a smile. He knew that Hu Changqing was just joking and didn't really mind, but he was more or less dissatisfied with Hu Changqing's reluctance to surrender.
At this moment, Hu Changqing's phone rang. It was Chen Yushan who called to rush him. She said that almost everyone had arrived and was waiting for him. She asked when he would arrive. Her tone was coquettish and full of dissatisfaction. Only then did Hu Changqing remember that he had an appointment at night. He quickly apologized warmly and promised that he would be there in half an hour.
He had wanted to chat with the boss for a while more, but he had to rush to the venue now. After all, he was the eldest son of the sh * t family. It would be rude to make him wait for too long, even though he had bought it for him this time. After saying a few words to Gu Ming, he walked to the kitchen door and said goodbye to the boss and the lady boss before leaving. When he was about to drive away, he saw Gu Ming and the boss, Old Wang, running over with two big boxes of fast food. He had to stop and take the food into the car before starting again.
Looking at the car that was getting further and further away, Gu Ming patted Old Wang, who was standing at the side, and said with a smile,"How do you think you should thank me? In the future, all my meals will be on the house, okay?”
Old Wang looked at Gu Ming strangely, not understanding what he was talking about.""This is your leader. Isn't he just a young kid? I think he's about the same as your soldier.”
Gu Ming couldn't help but smile bitterly." You won't understand even if I tell you. You just need to know that he's our benefactor. Come on, let's talk inside."”He walked back inside first and sat in his previous seat.
Old Wang had no choice but to follow him. He sat beside him and muttered,"What does it have to do with me? We're close, but you should at least pay for the materials. That pufferfish wasn't cheap. There were also soft-shelled turtles.”
Gu Ming didn't know whether to laugh or cry at Old Wang's words. He said to the middle-aged woman who was tidying up at the other table,""Sister-in-law, come over and sit down. I have something to tell you.”
The middle-aged woman also looked at Gu Ming strangely. The lady boss was very dissatisfied with Gu Ming's behavior today. Not only did it delay her business, but it also took him so much time to prepare the ingredients. However, they still put down what they were doing. After all, Gu Ming worked for the government, so he was still a level above them. He had to keep his words to himself. When he came to their table and sat down, Gu Ming glanced at Old Wang and said angrily,"You old fool, you actually want to settle accounts with me. Let me tell you, I'm helping you today. Who is this young man who came today?”
"Didn't you say he's your leader?" Old Wang rolled his eyes at him.”
Gu Ming didn't expect Old Wang to answer, so he continued,""He's Hu An's son. You should know who Hu An is.”
Seeing the shocked and incredulous expressions of his parents-in-law, Gu Ming continued to show off,"The son of the richest man in Jiang City lowered his status to eat at your place, and you still want to charge him?”
Old Wang still couldn't believe it and said,""You're not lying to me, right? Why would she come to such a place?”
Seeing his old friend's expression, Gu Ming didn't have the heart to continue showing off. He said sincerely,""Old Man Wang, you also know that although I haven't been a high-ranking official these years, I've eaten a lot of delicacies. I realized that none of them are better than yours, so I recommended you to my leader, who is also Hu An's son, to see if I could invest in your restaurant.”He felt that the leader did not seem to be as persuasive as the son of the richest man in Jiang City, so he added.
Seeing that the old couple were so excited that they couldn't speak, Gu Ming couldn't help but feel sad. Old Wang held Gu Ming's hand and said with a trembling voice,""Old Gu, are you lying to me? You really aren't lying to me, right? Ah, I thought my family's craftsmanship had long been ruined by me. Thank you, Old Gu, thank you.”Old Wang finally believed Gu Ming when he saw Gu Ming nodding his head repeatedly. He couldn't help but shed tears. His wife, who had been ravaged by life, also cried with him, attracting the attention of the customers beside him.
Old Wang, whose real name was Wang Weihua, was once a high-ranking chef in the National Party when he was in Jiangcheng. During that special period, his family was persecuted. His father died in the cattle pen, and he was bullied because of the poor ingredients. In order not to let his family's craftsmanship be lost, he spent most of his life to build such a small shop. However, in such a place and environment, no one could afford to eat such high-end dishes. He did not have any connections to know people he could invest in. He had to experience simple fast food to make a living. His life was okay, but he was very depressed in his heart. He felt that he had ruined his family's craftsmanship. Now that he heard his old friend say that someone was willing to invest in his shop, he couldn't help but cry tears of joy.
When Wang Weihua calmed down and was about to discuss the details with Gu Ming, the two of them suddenly looked at each other. They did not know where to start. One of them was a senior civil servant in the government, while the other was a grassroots who had special skills but had always lived at the bottom. They did not have any business acumen. Now that they suddenly asked for investment letters, their minds went blank.
Wang Weihua couldn't help but feel a little anxious. The opportunity was right in front of him, but he couldn't do anything about it. He was anxious and angry, crying,""Old Gu, what should we do?"
Gu Ming couldn't help but smile bitterly, but he was still relatively calm. He comforted her,""Old Wang, there's no rush. We'll just tell them the truth and let them come up with the plan. At that time, you'll only be responsible for cooking.”
Wang Weihua and his wife looked at each other and had no choice but to believe Gu Ming's words. However, she still looked a little distracted. She didn't know if she was a little suspicious of Gu Ming's investment or the solution he gave in the end.
Hu Changqing drove the Cayenne all the way. He was very satisfied with the driving experience of this car. Along the way, there were many different driving modes. Along the way, there was a speeding electric switch, and it took him a full 20 minutes to arrive at Coolclup, one of the three meeting places in Jiang City. At this time, the meeting place was filled with all kinds of luxurious cars. Fortunately, Hu Changqing had his own special parking space.
Coolclup was built on the main road along the river. It was originally a leisure club for the Soviet Union's Chinese experts. It had an area of nearly 20 acres and an underground bomb shelter the size of a football field. The outer wall was a red brick building. During the renovation, Hu Changqing preserved this special historical mark, giving the clubhouse a unique cultural atmosphere. The clubhouse had everything it needed. There was a bar, a billiard room, a bridge room, a golf course, and a small golf course. It was fully functional. Because Linjiang had a special yacht dock, its grade was above the other two clubs. Back then, Hu Changqing had obtained this land through his father's connections. Of course, it was also his father's investment. It was backed by the Uprising Square, adjacent to the Jiangcheng Music Academy in the west, and connected to the famous Yellow Crane Tower in the east. Its convenient geographical location, excellent resource advantages, and strong background had always made it the first choice for high-ranking officials and rich people to have nightlife.
When Hu Changqing parked his car, he received a call from Zhong Dashan. He thought that Zhong Dashan was urging him to attend the drinking party. He was about to explain that he could not go, but when he picked up the phone, he heard Zhong Dashan say in a heavy voice that the drinking party tonight had been canceled. He then explained that several bodies had been found in Nanshan District today. The province and city were shocked and ordered to solve the case as soon as possible. The city police station formed a joint team to investigate the case overnight.
After hanging up the phone, Hu Changqing's heart could not help but be covered with a layer of haze. With such a major criminal case happening in Jiang City, the Jiangcheng Criminal Police Force must be the first to bear the brunt and the main force to solve the case. As the captain of the Criminal Police Force, Gu Shaotang's pressure was self-evident. Moreover, this case happened when he was about to be transferred. It would more or less affect his transfer that had not been officially sent.
Carrying two bags of food in each hand, he tucked his handbag under his armpit and walked to the entrance of the clubhouse with some difficulty. He wanted to call to express his condolences, but considering how busy his brother-in-law was, he couldn't do it.
As soon as he arrived at the door, the greeters dressed in formal attire bowed and greeted him. When they saw him, two waiters quickly walked over and took the food from his hands. The club manager, Lu Yueru, who had been waiting for him, walked over with graceful steps. Although she was wearing a women's suit, it could not hide her graceful figure. There was always a faint smile on her charming face, which was friendly but not solemn.
Accompanied by the fresh scent of perfume, Lu Yueru came to his side and couldn't help but say coquettishly,"My dear Master, the people in the two houses are waiting for you. Which woman are you in love with? Let's see how you explain it to Yushan later.”
Her voice was gentle and seductive. Hu Changqing's heart skipped a beat. He could not help but look at her towering breasts that reached into the clouds. When he saw that large patch of white and tender skin, a lewd look flashed across his eyes. If it was not for the fact that they were in public, he would have long stretched out his hand to ravage it. He smiled and said,"Work needs it, so it's a little late. Why don't you pack some food to make up for it?”
Lu Yueru glanced at him coquettishly and smiled."Yushan isn't that easy to deal with.”
Hu Changqing did not mind and said indifferently,"That's for others to see. Where's President Qin? You didn't say anything, did you?"
Lu Yueru looked at him with uncertainty and said,""Young Master Qin is alright, it's just that the other two female young masters are a little unhappy. There's still Young Master Qin waiting for you.”At the end of his sentence, his face was filled with worry.
Hu Changqing only raised his eyebrows and did not say anything. Lu Yueru saw that there was no response, so she could not help but look at Hu Changqing again. Suddenly, she felt that this extremely familiar man beside her suddenly became a little unfathomable, so she did not dwell on this matter anymore. As she walked, she introduced some important guests to him one by one to see if he wanted to greet them.
After a while, the group arrived at his private room. As soon as they opened the door, they heard a commotion inside and a green object flew towards them.
