Chapter 746 Warm Hospitality
Unlike in the villages where kerosene lamps are used most of the time in winter, in the city, the smoke and water vapor rising from the thermal power plants keep the city brightly lit and neon lights shining even after dark.
The place where Wei Chunan and the others led Lu Lu and others went was not a hotel or a big restaurant, but an old shop hidden in an alleyway without even a sign on the door.
After Lu Lu and others followed them in, they discovered that there was something special inside this inconspicuous little house.
There is a special kitchen inside, which is very clean. An old man with gray hair in his 60s leads a woman in her thirties to work in the kitchen.
The sound of chopping vegetables on the chopping board is as rhythmic as a galloping horse.
"Mr. Feng used to be a chef in a government agency. After he retired, he took his daughter and opened a small restaurant at home. Many people who liked his cooking often came here because of his reputation. Don't look at the fact that there is only one table in the living room. If you want to eat at this table, you have to say hello in advance.
Knowing that you were coming today, a few of us came over to say hello to the people who had made reservations, and then we made space available. "
Qiu Shuliang introduced with a smile, while pulling out the chairs and beckoning several people to take their seats.
Lu Lu probably understood that this was more like the private cooking method of later generations.
His eyes were not on the chef cooking, but on Qiu Shuliang and the other three.
Ni Benzhou hurriedly went to get teacups and made tea for several people.
As for Wei Chunan, he went to the door of the kitchen, greeted the old man, and asked him to prepare the food.
Lu Lu looked at how several people were busy going about their business. The feeling was completely different from when they first met, as if they were different people.
After the three people sat down at the table, Lu Lu said with a smile: "You are so attentive, but it makes me a little uncomfortable... I didn't entertain you well last time I went to my house, I hope you can forgive me."
"What are you talking about...if we hadn't gone to your place, we wouldn't have known when we would have played ourselves out!"
"To be honest, when I went to your place, you really didn't give me any face. Even if you saved Chun'an, you still felt unhappy after you came back. As a result, within a few days, all of us were killed. My elders reprimanded me and I was put in solitary confinement for several days.
You may not know that the words our elders said when they lectured us are exactly the same as what you said in the mountains. "
"At the beginning, I didn't care about it, but then I didn't dare to think about it. Now we really realize that we are nothing, and if something happens, the elders can't protect us. We are all working now. , stay at peace!"
The three of them were talking animatedly.
Lu Lu also smiled: "Just don't blame me!"
"I don't blame you, I don't even have time to thank you... You are still the first one who dares to lecture us like this when we grow up. Good advice is offensive to our ears. Although it doesn't sound good and it doesn't give us face, it is indeed good advice. From now on, the three of us will I want to make friends with you."
Wei Chunan said with a smile.
"I'm afraid I won't be able to climb high!" Lu Lu still chose to put his posture lower.
"It's not so high, we are all the same. Seriously, I really want to make friends with you, just like Fengzi is with you." Wei Chunan said sincerely: "We also really realized our mistakes. I didn’t know how high the sky was before, but now I understand the meaning of being low-key.”
Dishes and drinks were brought to the table quickly.
The first thing the three of them did was to pick up the wine bottles, fill them with wine for several people, and toast them first.
After Wei Chunan refilled the drinks for several people, he stood up alone and toasted Lu Lu again: "Thank you for risking your life to save me on the mountain...I am very grateful. Whatever happens to you in the future, no matter what Find me, and I will do my best to handle it well for you.”
Lu Lu also stood up: "We are all friends in the future, so there is no need to be so polite... I may really have to trouble you with a lot of things in the future."
"Easy to say!" Wei Chunan nodded.
Now that the grudge is gone, the rest of the feast will be a joyful one.
Chef Feng's craftsmanship is really good, and the ingredients he uses are also exquisite. The dishes on the table are full of color, flavor and flavor. Even Lu Lu, who has eaten a lot of good food in his previous life, is full of praise.
Halfway through the meal, there was a knock on the door. Qiu Shuliang stood up and walked to the door, opened a gap and looked outside, then got out of the door.
After about four or five minutes, he opened the door and returned to his seat.
Ni Benzhou and Wei Chunan asked in unison: "How is the matter? Have you found out?"
Qiu Shuliang nodded: "I found it..."
Then, he looked at Lu Lu and said: "Brother, we have found the four people you asked to help with the investigation, Scar, Monk, Wu Laowen and Zhao Dalele. A group of people used to be in Hulan District There are just a bunch of gangsters over there, looking for people to collect money from shops on the street, and robbing those who place orders. It’s just a bunch of gangsters.
These four are led by Dao Scar, guarding a street, and there are several streets over there with a group of people messing around. It wasn't a while ago that they were arrested a few times, and those who followed them were also afraid of being arrested. , just like that, they dispersed. Some people really didn’t dare to mess around, but there were also many who were divided into small teams, and these four people were one of them. "
"Have they come back?" Lu Lu asked quickly.
Obviously, Zhang Shaofeng had told several people what happened.
Although these few people have changed a lot and kept a low profile a lot, but the background and contacts they should have are still well maintained, and the news has come out so quickly.
"Probably not, at least not in the city now... But don't worry, as long as they return to Harbin, we will find them immediately, and we will definitely help you find out who hired them to do it." Wei Chunan solemnly said He said: "Although we have restrained ourselves, it does not mean that we are afraid of trouble. We are just a few gangsters. We can still manage them. Just go back and wait with peace of mind. When we know the results, we will notify you as soon as possible."
"Then I will leave this matter to you!" Lu Lu said gratefully.
"You are still so polite...you don't think of us as friends!" Wei Chunan said, glaring at Lu Lu.
Lu Lu was stunned for a moment, then stood up and filled the glasses of wine for several people, and said with a smile: "Then I'm really rude...Everyone, one of you can leave!"
Several people stood up one after another, clinked their wine glasses, and drank them all in one gulp.
After sitting down again, Ni Benzhou asked curiously: "Is it really like what Fengzi said, that there is such an animal skin book recording Lao Zhao's location?"
Lu Lu nodded: "There is indeed such a copy, but it has been burned."
"What a pity, this is a treasure!" Ni Benzhou sighed: "It would be great if it were still here. You can make a lot of money in a year just by lifting the mallet!"
It can be heard that Zhang Shaofeng mentioned the animal skin book to them, but he did not say that the location of those old signs was stored in Lu Lu's head, so Zhang Shaofeng still had reservations.
"It's a pity... But it doesn't matter. The key is to learn how to find sticks. Look at now, after spring, as long as the sticks sprout, how many people are taking ginseng gangs and walking into the mountains. Those old people Many of them have already been discovered by others.
Last year, we went to the Tonghe River and encountered a few Laozhao, but we found nothing in Laozhao.There are many people looking for people who are good at sticks. The places where sticks come out are similar in environment. When you encounter a boss who can really appreciate the mountain scenery, you can tell where the sticks will come out just by looking at them, and you can't hide them at all.
In other words, it doesn’t matter whether there is an animal skin book or not. The key is to be able to find it! "
Lu Lu said it lightly.
"You are the most powerful tiger hunter. We have seen this before. We didn't expect you to be so good at lifting the mallet. We heard Fengzi say that if you lead the man to lift the mallet, you can tell at a glance... By the way, I have something. I want to discuss the matter with you. In the future, if you carry the sticks, especially the big ones, leave a few of us to help with them?"
When Qiu Shuliang said this, he raised his index finger and pointed upward: "Many people came to visit me at home, and they often mentioned Bang Chui. Except for some people above who want it, we have been living in this city for so many years. , and I also know some merchants from other places who also want to buy some for storage... Don't worry, the price will definitely not be lower than those at purchase stations, traditional Chinese medicine stores, and medical clinics.
Oops, let me just say it straight, the few of us are itchy when we see other people making money in business, but, unlike ordinary business, those sticks are more valuable in our hands and can be sold for more money. Let's cooperate. "
"That's a good thing!"
How could Lu Lu not understand? He just wanted to use a mallet to open some joints, and also use the mallet to harvest some things that came to his door.
Indeed, in their hands, those big-ticket mallets were much more profitable than when Lu Lu and others took them to purchase stations and contacted rich people to buy them.
"When I get a big deal this year, if I have big goods, I will definitely come to you and we can cooperate."
He also wanted to try it and see what the effect was.
If you can make more money, it will be in vain if you don’t work.
Seeing Lu Lu nodding, Ni Benzhou and the three of them laughed.
After eating for more than an hour, the three of them drove the jeep back to a large car shop outside the city, and then left.
The next morning, a few people had just got off the kang and were washing when someone came and knocked on the door.
Zhang Shaofeng opened the door and found two strange faces: "You are..."
"The team arranged for us to come and find you, saying that you have something to send back to Yichun?"
"Oh...it turns out to be someone from the motorcade. They have something to deliver. You guys came really early."
"The leader of the team called us last night to warn us. It's too early."
"Okay... let's pack up and leave immediately."
Zhang Shaofeng went back to his room and was busy pouring hot water to wash his face.
Raymond asked: "Did those three men arrange it last night?"
"Probably, after I dropped us off last night, I casually mentioned that I would go to the convoy to find a car to take things home this morning. I didn't expect that they were very attentive and made special arrangements for it!"
Zhang Shaofeng said with a smile: "This saves trouble and saves me another trip to the city!"
After washing, the five people greeted the two drivers to have breakfast at the big car shop, and then worked together to load the fur, meat, and sledges into the car, and finally led the horses into the car and tied them to the railing. The car started early. Rush to Yichun.
Next, is to wait.
Lu Lu opened the tarp and looked at the city that was quickly moving away. He secretly prayed that everything would go well next. He hoped that he wouldn't have to wait long to find out who was plotting against people like him, so that he could get rid of the evil that was hanging over his head as soon as possible. haze.
