In the kitchen, Xu Changwu, the owner of Pingcheng Hotel, was sweating profusely.

"Hurry up! It's just a simple lion's head dish, why hasn't it been cooked for so long?"

He yelled at the chef and pushed another waiter out: "Get out! Get out! What's wrong with you? This is Kouzijiao wine for the leaders. What if it gets contaminated with kitchen fumes? Can you understand a little bit?"

Boss Xu's scolding was unreasonable, but no one dared to go up and take advantage of him at that time.

Some people also wondered what exactly happened.

At this time, Lao Dongge stood up and said, "It's still in Box No. 1. Something big has happened!"

Xu Changwu glared at him and said, "What are you all doing huddled together? Don't you want to work? I'll deduct your wages, believe it or not!"

Venting out his anger to his employees did not relieve his inner anxiety at all. He even kept muttering, “How could this happen…”

There was a commotion in Box No. 1.

When Xu Changwu first heard the news, he couldn't believe it.

You have to know that this is Box No. 1, and inside are either county party committee leaders like Lin Kuifan and Li Chenggang, or provincial disciplinary inspection commission leaders, all of whom are experienced officials. Even if there are some conflicts, it won't lead to a bad situation.

Even though they hated each other to the point of gnashing their teeth, they still smiled and called each other brothers at the dinner table.

Xu Changwu had witnessed countless dinner parties like this, so how could it turn out like this?

Apart from this, the person in an even more embarrassing situation is the restaurant owner.

Maybe it seems like it has nothing to do with him, but the leader is eating in your restaurant. Now that there is a problem, he can't find fault with the provincial government, but can't he find fault with you, the restaurant owner?

By then, they can just accuse you of poor hospitality and dissatisfaction with county leaders and provincial comrades, and your job as a restaurant owner will be over.

Xu Changwu didn't think that he was overthinking. On the contrary, only with this kind of awareness could he securely contract the Pingcheng Hotel.

Therefore, no matter what happened in the box, he, as the restaurant owner, could not remain indifferent.

Only if he takes the initiative to give himself up to others and smooth over the situation, will it be possible for him to run the restaurant safely.

Xu Changwu understood this very well, so he immediately went to the kitchen to add a dish and prepare some wine. He was ready to save the situation.

As Xu Changwu kept muttering, the lion's head was finally out of the pot. Xu Changwu immediately pulled the chef and the manager to serve more food and wine to the leader.

From the foreman, Xu Changwu finally understood what had happened in the box, and then he felt that his inherent cognition was challenged.

"What? Secretary Lin toasted Lu An but he refused to drink? Are the young cadres in this province so politically conscious? Even if he is a cadre from the province, he can't be like this, right?"

"So this is what happened this afternoon. No wonder the provincial leaders are so angry. It's normal for them to be angry."

"Hasn't this been settled? What does Team Leader Lu mean by that? He even talked to Secretary Lin about the problem of surplus young and middle-aged people in rural areas. Young cadres really don't know their own weight and are so arrogant."

"What do young cadres know about grassroots governance? They will definitely make all kinds of big talk to upset Secretary Lin, so our next task is very heavy. We must liven up the atmosphere and resolutely not let the situation fall to the ground! We would rather offend the provincial leaders than embarrass Secretary Lin and his men!"

Xu Changwu gave serious instructions to his chef and manager, and also promised them huge profits, promising that he would give them bonuses as long as they helped him deal with today's affairs. This immediately ignited the fighting spirit of the two chefs and managers.

After repeatedly reminding them of the precautions and preparing himself mentally, Xu Changwu finally pushed open the door of the box with the heroic spirit of a hero who would never return.

"Dear leaders, here comes the good wine and the good food!"

Xu Changwu spoke enthusiastically, but what greeted him was a serious atmosphere and sharp looks of dissatisfaction from some leaders.

Even though Xu Changwu had done enough mental preparation, his legs still couldn't stop shaking.

But he still forced a smile and said, "I'm sorry to bother you, leaders. It's a rare opportunity for you to visit our store today. It makes our store shine and I feel extremely honored..."

But before he could finish his opening speech, he was interrupted.

"What are you doing here? Did you send me to the wrong place? Get out now!"

The one who interrupted Xu Changwu was Hu Wenlong, deputy director of the county party committee office. He took Xu Changwu and others out of the box without saying a word, and then scolded them harshly.

"Xu Changwu, you are also an old businessman, how come you don't have any foresight? Don't you know that the leader is having a meal and discussing business in the box?"

"Do you know what you are doing now? Do you think your business is too easy and want to take on more tasks? Don't think you can get ahead just because you have contracted the Pingcheng Hotel. You must always remember your position in the county!"

Although he was criticized for no reason, Xu Changwu did not dare to have any dissatisfaction. On the contrary, he praised Director Hu for his criticism and said that he was inconsiderate in doing so. He always kept his mission in mind and remembered that Pingcheng Hotel was to serve the county party committee, county government and all the leaders in the county.

Of course Xu Changwu felt wronged, but he dared not talk back to Director Hu, so he could only say tactfully: "I always remember that I have to help the county leaders solve their problems, so when I heard that the county leaders were in trouble, I rushed to the front line immediately!"

Hu Wenlong knew that Xu Changwu had good intentions but ended up doing something bad, but he was still angry: "What front line do you need to rush to? What front line does the leader need you to rush to? You are so smart!"

After saying this, Xu Changwu let out a sigh of relief, and then asked carefully: "Director, what exactly happened in there? Although Team Leader Lu is from the provincial government, he can't be so arrogant and not take our county seriously, right?"

Hu Wenlong immediately covered Xu Changwu's mouth: "Don't dare to talk nonsense! Team leader Lu is a senior cadre in the province, with a solid theoretical foundation. His suggestions have an important guiding role in the work of the county. Secretary Lin and other leaders were listening to the lecture just now. If you disturbed them, you would be the biggest sinner in Pingjiang!"

clam?

Xu Changwu felt that all his three views were wrong.

what's the situation?

Lu An, the young cadre from the provincial government, is actually giving lectures to all the county leaders?

Seeing his stupid expression, Hu Wenlong knew that he didn't understand, but he didn't have the interest to explain. He just warned him: "Remember, you have nothing to do in the box. Don't look for trouble, otherwise no one can protect you!"

Hu Wenlong left this warning and turned back to the box. He looked so anxious that he seemed like a studious student who had finally met a famous teacher and was unwilling to miss even a minute of his instruction.

The door of the box opened and closed, and Xu Changwu only had time to take a quick look at Lu An's talking figure, but in that one glance he felt he was extremely tall.

In the end, I could only sigh in my heart: This team leader Lu who came from the provincial government is so awesome!
