Chapter 533: The Floor Furnace Is as Red as Coal!
Under the guidance of the waiter, or the receptionist.
Luo Shuning, Wu Mingshi and Chen Gang were taken to a room.
As soon as he entered the room, Luo Shuning felt like he had traveled back to the 1970s and 1980s.
The items in the room were so old!
There was an eight-immortal table that looked like mahogany next to the east wall.
There was a set of purple clay teapots and tea sets on the table, and several high-backed armchairs next to it.
Whether it was the table, the chairs or the tea sets, they all gave people a feeling of being far away from modern times.
A large earthen kang was more conspicuous near the north wall of the room.
This was the first time Luo Shuning had seen such a thing since he was a child, and he felt it was very novel.
There was a large round table on the earthen kang, with a high raised copper pot in the middle of the round table, and six soft-looking futons around it.
It seemed that the earthen kang was the place for eating and dining.
"Please wait a moment, three distinguished guests. I will go find someone to greet you."
The waiter who led the three people in said this with a low brow and bowed his back slightly as he left the room.
"Oh my god, this is too old-fashioned! When I entered the room, I thought I had traveled back to the 1970s and 1980s like those rebirth stories in online novels."
Wu Mingshi looked left and right, and was very interested in the furniture in the inner room.
"Luozi, Gangzi, do you think this table and chair are made of rosewood?"
Chen Gang nodded seriously and said, "They do look a bit like it."
Luo Xuning retracted his gaze and said with a smile, "Not a bit like it, they are really made of rosewood, authentic small-leaf red sandalwood."
"Oh my god, is that so? What is the price of rosewood now? This table and this set of chairs must be worth hundreds of thousands! This is too extravagant! Isn't the boss worried that someone will secretly remove the legs when they leave? Just a table leg or a chair leg can sell for a lot of money, right?"
When Wu Mingshi heard that the table and chair were really made of rosewood, he didn't even dare to sit down, and stood up again just as his butt touched the chair.
Luo Shuning smiled and said, "Who do you think the people who come here to eat are? Are they short of a table leg or a chair leg?"
Wu Mingshi smiled and said, "Yes, I heard that the people who come here to eat are either powerful or rich.
It's rare to have nothing like me and Lao Chen."
Chen Gang echoed, "It's all thanks to Mr. Luo that I can eat here today."
Dinglingling, dinglingling--!
As soon as Chen Gang finished speaking, a cell phone rang in the room, and the sound came from Luo Shuning's pocket.
Luo Shuning took out his cell phone and saw that the name on the caller ID was "Shi Mingsheng", the "old apprentice" he had just accepted yesterday.
"Hello, Lao Shi, where are you?"
Luo Shuning swiped his finger to answer the call and asked casually.
"Okay, okay, we are in the Ronghua room. When you come, just ask the receptionist at the door to bring you over."
"You don't need to bring anything, just bring your mouth. There are no outsiders today, we are all family."
"It's nothing important, but we feel that we have a good relationship, so let's sit together."
"Okay, okay, then we will wait for you, see you there, okay, drive slowly on the way."
"By the way, remember to bring a driver when you come, otherwise you will have to call a designated driver at night."
"Okay, that's it for now, hang up."
After answering the phone, Luo Shuning chatted with Shi Mingsheng for a few words before hanging up.
"How is it? Where is Mr. Shi?"
As soon as Luo Shuning hung up the phone, Wu Mingshi came forward with a concerned look to inquire about the news.
At this moment, Shi Mingsheng, or Desheng Shoes, has become the biggest sponsor of Qiming Printing Factory.
As the general manager of the printing factory, Wu Mingshi is naturally very concerned about this matter.
Luo Shuning said casually: "I'll be here in about ten minutes, there's a little traffic jam on the road."
"Just come, go slowly."
The other party was very respectful to come, so Wu Mingshi didn't ask for much.
After ending the call with Shi Mingsheng, about seven or eight minutes later, Shi Mingsheng arrived as promised.
"Good evening, Mr. Shi, please take a seat, please take a seat."
When Wu Mingshi and Chen Gang saw Shi Mingsheng, they greeted him with a smile and said hello to him in an extremely friendly manner.
"Master, Brother Wu, and this brother, I'm sorry, there's a little traffic jam on the road, I kept you waiting for a long time, I really didn't mean to be arrogant and come late on purpose."
After entering the door, Shi Mingsheng first greeted Luo Shuning and others, and then hurriedly explained the reason for his late arrival.
"It's okay, I understand. Old Shi, let me introduce you. This is my partner with Fatty, and also our good friend Chen Gang."
Luo Xuning first introduced Chen Gang's name, and then said: "The three of us opened a small printing factory in Shi City. I basically don't care about the printing factory. All the big and small affairs of the factory depend on Fatty and Old Chen."
"Chen Gang, right? Hello, hello, I'm much older than you. You can call me Old Shi or Brother Shi when you see me in the future."
Shi Mingsheng heard Luo Xuning's introduction of Chen Gang and he took the initiative to reach out and shake hands with Chen Gang.
"Hello, Brother Shi, hello, nice to meet you, nice to meet you.
Chen Gang stretched out his hand and shook hands with Shi Mingsheng, with a flattered expression on his face.
Although Shi Mingsheng said he could call him "Old Shi", Chen Gang was very self-aware and didn't really dare to call him that.
Chen Gang knew very well that the reason why Shi Mingsheng was so polite to him was entirely for Luo Yanning's sake.
It's just that for him, let alone sitting with others for dinner, it is impossible to just meet him.
He is an old director of a large company with assets worth tens of billions, and he is just a manager of a little-known printing factory.
Shi Mingsheng was very satisfied with Chen Gang's performance. The reason why he was polite to him was just for Luo Yanning's sake.
If Chen Gang really dared to call him brother, he wouldn't say anything in front of Luo Yanning. Later, he would definitely be labeled as "I don't know how much I weigh."
Although the last time Shi Mingsheng apprenticed with Luo Yanning, several people had already eaten at the same table, but they had not been formally introduced. This time they were officially acquainted.
After a while of greetings, Luo Yanning invited everyone to sit on the kang.
"Hey! It's quite warm!"
After taking off his shoes and getting on the kang, Wu Mingshi sat down on the futon and felt a stream of heat coming up from under his buttocks, making his body feel warm.
Luo Yanning said with a smile: "There is an ancient poem saying: The earth furnace is exquisite and charcoal red, and the earth bed is filled with reeds and mushrooms that feel spring melting. A bright moon in the window, dreaming of the south of the Yangtze River, appears in the warm pavilion with double curtains, and this is the earthen bed."
"Master is a great talent! This poem is a perfect match for the Tukang!"
Shi Mingsheng gave Luo Yanning a thumbs up and praised him with a smile.
Luo Yanning couldn't help laughing and said: "What talent do I have? This is not a poem written by me. I am just carrying other people's poems."
Chen Gang laughed at the side and said: "Dr. Luo is so humble. Even if he is carrying other people's poems, he still has the goods.
We couldn't move it even if we wanted to, so we could only say "It's so warm" and that was it. "
Shi Mingsheng said with a smile: "What Mr. Chen said is reasonable. Being able to convey poems that suit the situation in the right scene is talent."
Wu Mingshi looked at Shi Mingsheng and Chen Gang speechlessly. He could tell that these two people would flatter Luo Yanning as soon as they had the chance.
"Ahem, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's order food first. Let's chat while eating."
Luo Yanning was a little embarrassed by being photographed by the two of them. She picked up the menu and handed it to Shi Mingsheng for him to order:
"Lao Shi, you can eat whatever you want. A fat man is here to treat you today. Let's give him a good meal."
Shi Mingsheng smiled and declined: "Master, you'd better do it. I'm not picky about food and have no dietary restrictions. I can eat anything."
Luo Yanning said: "Order your own, and don't worry about anyone else."
"Okay, let me order a few." After listening to Luo Yanning's words, Shi Mingsheng took the menu and ordered a few side dishes.
After finishing the stone scenic spots, Luo Yanning clicked, then Wu Mingshi, and Chen Gang was the last one.
Within five minutes of ordering, all the ingredients were on the table.
"Please use it with caution. I wish you a happy meal. If you need anything, just call us at any time."
After the account manager in charge checked and found nothing missing, he gave a few instructions and then turned around and left the private room.
"Master, let's try how this mutton tastes. The mutton in Lao Yang's hot pot is all sheep sent from Sunit that day and is sold immediately. It is fresh and authentic." Shi Mingsheng introduced Lao Yang to Luo Yanning with a smile. The origin of mutton in hot pot restaurants.
"Sunit Sheep? What's the origin of this sheep?" Before today, Luo Yanning only knew goats, sheep, lambs and so on.
This was the first time he had heard of the Sunit sheep that Shi Mingsheng was talking about, and he couldn't help but be a little curious.
"Master, have you ever heard of a saying? Inner Mongolia mutton is counted in Ximeng, and Ximeng's mutton is counted in Sunit."
Shi Mingsheng said with a smile: "Sunit is located in the northwest of NMG Ximeng. It is one of the few pure natural pastures in the country. The Sunit sheep, a specialty of Sunit Ranch, is the first in Inner Mongolia to be listed as a national geographical indication. Protect the product.
Sunit sheep is also known as ginseng in meat. Firstly, it is because Sunit sheep itself is a very fine breed. Secondly, it is because of the unique semi-desert grassland environment of Sunit grassland. Thirdly, it is because of the unique semi-desert grassland environment of Sunit grassland. Nite sheep cannot be kept in captivity.
Because they cannot be raised in captivity and live on this semi-desert grassland, Sunit sheep have to run about 20 kilometers every day if they want to eat.
Therefore, Sunit's mutton meat is very delicious and firm. Compared with other muttons, it has a higher lean meat rate, is rich in nutrients, and has little odor.
Many old BJ's shabu-shabu restaurants use Sunit mutton. The simple shabu-shabu mutton does not require any dipping sauce and tastes extremely delicious. "
"Good guy, this plate of mutton is quite big, everyone. How do you think it tastes?"
Luo Yanning greeted everyone, picked up a medium-thick piece of mutton and threw it into the copper pot that had just boiled.
The moment the mutton is put into the pot, the unique flavor of mutton is instantly stimulated by the hot water.
When it comes to the freshest meat, it has to be fish and mutton. The word "fresh" is a combination of the two.
Shi Mingsheng and Wu Mingshi also used public chopsticks to put some other ingredients into the copper pot.
The copper pot that was still boiling just now calmed down, and the next step was to wait for the ingredients to be cooked.
"There are no outsiders here today. Lao Shi, you are in a special situation, so please stop drinking and have tea instead of a bar."
As Luo Yanning spoke, she reached out and handed a teapot to Shi Mingsheng.
Shi Mingsheng said with a smile: "Master, it's okay if you drink less.
You all drink, but I don’t drink. It doesn’t look good. Besides, I don’t lack this little wine.
What is the difference between living two days more and living two days less? You can't eat this, you can't drink that. What's the point of living 100 years old? "
Luo Yanning said seriously: "It's different. Technology is becoming more and more advanced. Maybe that day there will be an outbreak in the medical field. Many diseases that cannot be cured now will be cured by then."
Wu Mingshi and Chen Gang listened to the conversation between the two, and seemed to understand, but they did not fully understand.
Luo Yanning finally said: "I don't care about you at other times, and I can't control you, but when you eat with me, you are not allowed to drink."
"..." Luo Yanning had already said this, and Shi Mingsheng had no choice but to give up the plan of drinking and poured himself a cup of tea with a look of helplessness on his face.
"Then I'll replace the water with tea and pay tribute to the master. I wish the master will always be young and healthy."
After pouring the tea, Shi Mingsheng raised his glass. The first glass was given to the master Luo Yanning.
Although there was a huge age difference between the two of them, Shi Mingsheng was called master willingly and not forced at all.
Even Wu Mingshi and the two people next to him felt a little embarrassed when they heard Shi Mingsheng call him Master Luo Yanning, but the two parties involved were not embarrassed at all.
I really agree with that sentence, as long as you are not embarrassed, others will be embarrassed.
"That's right, I did it, you can do whatever you want." Luo Yanning smiled and said nothing more, just picked up the wine glass in front of him and drank a toast.
The cup I drank from today was a small cup with a little more than one or two cups. For Luo Yanning's drinking capacity, this small amount of wine only wetted his lips.
"..." This was the first time Shi Mingsheng remembered seeing such a person who drank more boldly than himself. He couldn't laugh or cry in his heart, and drank a cup of tea with him.
Since the tea was freshly poured, Shi Mingsheng felt more uncomfortable drinking this cup of tea than drinking alcohol.
After drinking a cup of tea, my throat almost burns to my skin.
Seeing this, Luo Yanning smiled and said: "Lao Shi, you are too honest. There are no outsiders here, so just be casual."
Shi Mingsheng put down the teacup in his hand and said with an apologetic smile: "Ahem, master, I've finished a cup of wine. If I can't even make a cup of tea, if word gets out, people will laugh at me to death."
Luo Yanning waved her hand and said: "We are all our own people, we don't have to pay too much attention to it. Whoever wants to say anything can say it, just don't take it to your heart."
Wu Mingshi agreed: "Yes, Lao Shi, drink more if you can. If you can't, no one will force you. We don't have the habit of persuading people to drink here."
"Okay, then I'll do whatever I want."
Shi Mingsheng smiled, picked up his chopsticks and greeted Luo Yanning and the others:
"The mutton is cooked. Master, Xiao Wu, Xiao Chen, while it's still fresh, try to see if there is any difference between this Sunit mutton and ordinary mutton."
