Four Hundred and Twenty Second: Pomp
Ye Xiu was a little bit displeased when he heard this: "Grandpa, am I still your biological grandson?"
What do you mean I don't have to go, but Brother Cheng must go?
Ye Laobai gave him a look: "You should ask your father about this heavy topic. The reason why he didn't take you there is that you are not qualified."
Ye Xiu looked at Minister Ye resentfully: "Dad?"
Ye Xiu was shocked by Minister Ye's words. He coughed, "Those people who are nothing but braggarts are bragging. You really don't have the capital to brag when you go, so you really don't have the qualifications."
Ye Xiu: "..."
Xu Cheng couldn't hold back Ye Lao, so he had to follow him into the red flag car.
Seeing the red flag car go away, Ye Xiu asked his father in a puzzled way: "I'm not qualified, the key is Brother Cheng, does he have it? I remember Dad, it seems that grandpa didn't even praise you when you became the minister. Bar?"
Minister Ye sighed: "In your grandfather's eyes, a soldier who can fight devils is a good soldier. Your father and I are given by your grandfather. It is true that there is no qualification worthy of people's attention, but the small town can have capital. Go brag to those old guys."
Ye Xiu: "I don't know where is his awesomeness?"
"If you knew how awesome he is, you wouldn't be standing but kneeling to talk to him." After Minister Ye finished speaking, he quickly poured himself some wine and drank it vigorously.
"What?" Ye Xiu thought his father was joking.
In the car, Xu Cheng sighed: "Old man, don't have any idea, I don't know, I'm really tired now and want to rest."
"I don't know what you're talking about." Ye Lao pretended to be confused, and after thinking about it, he stopped playing charades. He looked at Xu Cheng and sighed: "Son, it's not good to be too smart."
Xu Cheng smiled wryly: "That's why I don't go into politics, old man."
Ye Lao nodded, smacked his lips and said: "You are a smart child. In fact, there are many ways to prove your worth in life. There is no need to stand on a high place. It will appear shining after too long, and it will hurt more if you fall. You did the right thing this time. At least you have realized the state that Zhang Chenfeng wanted."
The car drove all the way to a restaurant opened by the stewards of Yanjing. The chefs here are all authentic Beijing flavor left by Yanjing.
The style of this restaurant is completely inferior to the luxury stores in the magnificent golden locations outside, but here is definitely a place where you have money and power, but you may not be able to come and eat casually!
Reservations are required here, and guests other than state cadres are generally not entertained, which shows how awesome this restaurant is.
For a rich man in the country to be invited to have a meal here with a certain leader, it is enough for him to brag about it for a lifetime.
It is not difficult for the celebrities and officials who come to eat here to see the long history of this restaurant and its absolute status.
There are still photos of the old chefs of this restaurant taking photos with the relatives of the upright officials and the royal family, and there are countless group photos of leaders. This background wall alone is enough for those officials and top officials who spend a lot of money to eat here. Regal stayed and took pictures as souvenirs.
Today, the restaurant is almost reserved from afternoon to evening, and many officials are wondering that the originally reserved seats have been temporarily moved.
Li Menglong, who is in charge of catching Yanjing's economy and entertaining wealthy investors, is one of those who booked a few days in advance today. He brought a few wealthy guests here to talk about attracting investment, but when he was told that the restaurant would be reserved temporarily, A few of the top domestic tycoons next to him asked the person in charge puzzledly: "We haven't settled the matter yet, how can we just let go?"
As a local, Li Menglong knew that there must be something wrong, so he stopped to signal the two rich men to be calm, then turned to the person in charge and said, "Who booked the venue?"
Before the person in charge could speak, the armed special forces outside drove in to give way to the restaurant and began to deploy the Qing people. The scene was a bit motivating. Li Menglong's eyelids twitched a little when he saw it. This scene was a bit like the pre-deployment posture of the head of the tour.
Immediately, he looked at the two rich men and said, "How about changing to another one."
At this time, the two rich men thought to themselves, it is rare to come here once, so they have to eat once in this life, right?
"Boss, we all sat down and had a good meal. Why did you clear the place? It doesn't make sense, right? Besides, we gave the money too, right?"
The person in charge said: "You two, it's not that I won't give you food, it's just that time has passed. We received a call from the General Administration to arrange this place temporarily. Don't embarrass us."
He looked at Li Menglong and said, "Mayor Li, you're an official, I wouldn't do this if it's okay, and it's so hasty."
Li Menglong nodded. He saw that many colleagues left the venue one after another, especially when the person in charge said the word "General Administration" his face changed slightly.
"Okay, come another day." Li Menglong immediately got up and said a few words to the two rich men, and the three of them were ready to leave.
As soon as the three of them came out of the restaurant, they saw a mighty police car driving away, and then five red flag cars slowly approaching the restaurant. Then some special forces stepped forward to open the doors of the cars, and a few young people got out of the five cars one after another. It didn't make Li Menglong feel that something was wrong, but when he saw the five old people slowly walking out.
Li Menglong's heart shook like an earthquake!
Fuck!
These five... These five are not easy, old man!
These five can be said to be the meritorious veterans of the country, those generals who were the most capable of killing devils back then! The five of them have seldom appeared, and the five of them have been together in a picture frame, especially when they come to a restaurant for dinner, at least for decades, right? No wonder this restaurant pays enough attention to keeping all idlers away anyway.
Li Menglong's heart was overwhelmed, because he also met the old General Ye who almost offended him before!
Damn, it's so dangerous, if I didn't come out just now, and met these five leaders inside, then it would be hard enough!
He saw a young man supporting Ye Lao, and Ye Lao seemed to be disrespectfully hugging Xu Cheng happily, obviously having a pleasant conversation with him, Li Menglong quickly took a good look at the young man, hoping to get to know this young man in the future Man, this young man is none other than Xu Cheng!
"Mayor Li, who are these five old people? Do you know them? I thought it was the chief who came to make such a big fight." The two rich men said in confusion.
Li Menglong smiled wryly: "The chief should obediently call out 'Uncle' when he sees these five. The five of them are enough to represent the power and government of China. If they don't say that they belong to a wealthy family, others dare not recognize them!"
