Rebirth in 1958: Getting rich starts from Nanluoguxiang

After the two exams were over, it was already half past eleven. Coming out of the conference room, Sun Qian dragged Qin Dabao and Zhu Jun to go to the barbecue restaurant to eat barbecue. Wu Fan followed silently behind.

Qin Dabao was not the kind of pretentious person, and he didn't dislike these three boys, so he agreed. At worst, he could return the meal later.

Zhu Jun didn't know why, but he would go wherever Qin Dabao went.

This BBQ Ji is a time-honored brand in Beijing. It originated during the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty. The owner's surname was Ji, and his name was Ji Decai. He first set up a stall selling roasted lamb in the Lotus Market next to Shichahai. The cloth sign he put up was called BBQ Ji.

The current BBQ Season Restaurant is located next to the Yinding Bridge. It is a small building facing south.

The most famous dish here is roast lamb.

In the lobby during the barbecue season, there is an iron grill with pine cones and pine wood burning underneath. Pine wood must be used because of its fragrant smell. The grilled meat has a pine aroma.

When eating barbecue, condiments are very important. The condiment bowl fired in the official kiln is filled with a mixture of soy sauce, vinegar, minced ginger, cooking wine, braised shrimp oil, chopped green onions, and coriander leaves.

Use long bamboo chopsticks to dip the thinly sliced ​​mutton in seasonings and place it on the grill.

Barbecue should be eaten with pickled garlic, cucumber strips, hot ox tongue biscuits, and warmed up Erguotou. Especially in the cold winter, you can drink a sip of old wine and eat a bite of barbecue, and you will sweat profusely and feel refreshed all over.

Qin Dabao was quite looking forward to the barbecue. There were only two most authentic barbecue restaurants in the old capital, namely Kaoru Ji and Kaoru Wan.

The fat man was familiar with the place and it was obvious that he came here often. This made Qin Dabao interested in the fat man's origins. You know, those who can take out ten kilograms of meat tickets to eat meat during the barbecue season are definitely not ordinary people, except for those with cheats like him.

The little fat guy is indeed the rarest species in this era. People who come in to eat barbecue always notice him at first sight. He doesn't care and orders ten plates of meat by himself. Each plate weighs eight taels of meat. This generosity is astonishing.

They had to go to the city bureau to check their test results in the afternoon. They didn't drink alcohol, but just ordered four bottles of soda.

It is said that eating and playing cards can best reflect a person's character. Among these four people, the most unrestrained one in eating meat is not the fat boy, but Zhu Jun.

The most methodical one was Wu Fan. He ate barbecue like a robot. He picked a piece of meat of similar size, put it into the seasoning bowl, turned it over twice, put it into his mouth, did not chew it, and then stuffed a clove of pickled garlic and a small piece of cucumber into his mouth. Only then did he eat it in small bites.

Qin Dabao laughed. This guy definitely has obsessive-compulsive disorder, and it’s very serious.

A meal completely brought the boys closer together. A cigarette, a meal and a glass of wine can make them good friends.

While eating and chatting, they each introduced themselves. Sun Qian's father and Wu Fan's mother are siblings. Sun Qian's father is the deputy director of the Beijing Supply and Marketing Cooperative, so his family is well-off.

Wu Fan's father is a scientific researcher and is often away from home. His mother doesn't know where he is. Qin Dabao guessed that Wu Fan's father must be in a scientific research base in the northwest.

Zhu Jun still looked cool and only said that his parents were soldiers stationed in the Northeast, and he stayed in Beijing to live with his grandfather.

Among these people, Qin Dabao's family background is the most ordinary.

A barbecue brought them closer together. Men's friendship is so simple. A meal made them brothers.

． ． ． ．

Back at the Municipal Bureau, all the candidates who had finished their meal came back and were talking about how difficult the exam was.

Weekend Yan looked at Qin Dabao with a cold sidelong glance. He had lost face in the morning because of Qin Dabao's criticism. He had already thought of several plans to kill Qin Dabao.

Zhou Moyan is a villain who is good at plotting and scheming behind other people's backs. Just a few words have made Qin Dabao hate him to death. His mind is worse than that of a woman.

There was another reason for his cold face. He had obtained the test papers a long time ago and had someone prepare them for him. However, the police officer in charge of the exam was very responsible and strict. No one could cheat. If someone had not replaced the completed test paper for him later, he would definitely not have failed the exam this time.

Liu Shuwen never found a chance to copy the answers, so he did terribly on the test.

But he didn't particularly care, because his cousin had already arranged everything for him. This exam was just a formality, and he would eventually be specially recruited into the Public Security Bureau, but not in the Municipal Bureau, but in the Dongcheng Branch.

Liu Shuwen felt humiliated that morning and hid in Huang Qi's office, urging his cousin to avenge him. This annoyed Huang Qi, but he was helpless.

But all of this was just a minor incident before the exam results were announced.

Qin Dabao and the other three walked into the conference room, and everyone looked at them.

The most talked about person today is Qin Dabao. Most of the people here are from the big courtyards. They have military blood in their bones and have a heart of admiration for the strong.

Liu Shuwen and Wang Li were just scoundrels, with a bit of bad reputation in the empty courtyard.

But Zhou Moyan is not like that. He is a leading figure in Luyuan. One third of the students in the compound regard him as the boss. This power is not small.

Among Zhou Moyan’s classmates, there are many from the School of Air Force and the School of Naval Architecture, and his reputation is also good in these two schools.

Qin Dabao is obviously from a commoner family. How dare such a person cut Liu Shuwen, confront Zhou Moyan, and confront the director of a municipal bureau? I wonder if he is a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers? Or is he a big fool? In short, he is not a normal person.

Qin Dabao ignored other people's comments. Even if he knew the content of the comments, Qin Dabao would still spit at these short-sighted guys. What a bunch of idiots. In a few years, he would be able to sit on the Diaoyutai just by relying on his poor peasant background and understanding of the situation, but who knows how many of these idiots can survive.

． ． ． ． ． ． ．

Qin Dabao has never been a reckless person.

He had his reasons for beating Liu Shuwen. These guys didn't know how to stand or sit properly. He was obviously from a wealthy family, but everyone avoided him. This proved that he was not very popular.

All the candidates here have connections without exception. If he gives in on everything, it will only encourage others to bully him. Instead of that, it would be better to kill a chicken to scare the monkeys and let these people know that he is not someone to be trifled with.

Besides, Qin Dabao is not without backing. Zhao Yuchu will be a senior leader of the Ministry of Industry in the future, a figure on par with the director of the Municipal Bureau.

However, Qin Dabao didn't want to use this relationship. Favors are something that will be used up over time.

Qin Dabao took out a cigarette, lit it, and threw the cigarette box to Sun Qian and the others.

Sun Qian chuckled and said, "Alright, buddy, you're quite good at this. Smoke Zhonghua cigarettes."

Zhu Jun also took one. Wu Fan shook his head. He didn't smoke, but since he made a few friends, he was obviously much more cheerful.

At two o'clock, two female civilian police officers from the personnel department posted a piece of red paper on the blackboard.

A female police officer stood on the stage, picked up the microphone and said "hello" twice: "Those whose names I call will stay, and everyone else will leave."

The discussions gradually stopped. It was time to decide one's fate, and everyone hoped to be the lucky one.

"Qin Dabao, Wu Fan, Zhu Jun, Sun Qian, Sun Tong, Jian Hongjun, Zhou Moyan..."

After the names of the twenty were read out, the conference room suddenly became noisy. Although they knew from the beginning that there were more than 200 people and only 20 would be admitted, and their families had used their connections to help, they still felt bad because their hopes were dashed when they didn't pass the exam.

There were curses mixed with sobs. Qin Dabao and the other three all curled their lips. With this kind of mentality, he still wanted to be a police officer. He must have only thought about the prestige of wearing a police uniform and carrying a gun, and forgot that being a police officer is the most dangerous profession in peacetime.
