Rebirth in 1980, the rise of the golden age

Speaking of which, if Zhong Yuanbing had not intervened, Gao Dapeng and he would have most likely successfully contracted the six state-owned restaurants, and naturally there would not be the current Zhenweiju Restaurant.

Doesn’t Zhong Yuanbing know that this restaurant is opened by him and Gao Dapeng?

Li Youcai couldn't understand why Zhong Yuanbing came here today.

"Boss Li, Zhong was responsible for the previous incident. I didn't know you and Manager Gao had been planning this. But, come to think of it, it's a good thing that things have turned out this way. How about we just put those unpleasant things behind us?"

Zhong Yuanbing smiled and turned sideways to take a big red brocade box from his subordinate.

The brocade box was finely crafted, had a slight fragrance, and was made of sandalwood.

"It's just a small gift to congratulate the restaurant on its grand opening, prosperous business, and abundant wealth." Zhong Yuanbing held the brocade box in both hands with a look of sincerity.

"Isn't this Mr. Zhong, Deputy County Chief Zhou's nephew and the owner of the Guangyuan Cannery? I didn't expect him to be here too. It looks like he's prepared quite a bit of gifts. What's his relationship with the owner of this restaurant?"

"Who knows? It seems that the owner of this restaurant is also a capable person, otherwise why would Mr. Zhong be so polite?"

······

The guests around who knew Zhong Yuanbing started talking about this scene.

Flutter...

After Gao Dapeng sent Bai Tianming off, he was walking down the stairs when he saw Zhong Yuanbing and Li Youcai holding gifts.

"Brother Youcai, a friend is here, please introduce him to me."

"This is Zhong Yuanbing from Guangyuan Cannery." Li Youcai said softly.

As Li Youcai expected, when Gao Dapeng heard the three words "Zhong Yuanbing", his originally smiling face suddenly tensed.

"Seeing is believing. So you are Zhong Yuanbing." Gao Dapeng looked at Zhong Yuanbing with an unfriendly look.

"I am Zhong Yuanbing. I believe this must be General Manager Gao Dapeng. I offended you a lot during the previous state-owned restaurant incident. I came here today to express my congratulations and also to make friends."

"Congratulations on the grand opening of your restaurant. This small gift is not enough to show your respect."

As Zhong Yuanbing spoke, he raised the brocade box in the air for the second time.

Accept it and the past will be written off.

If he didn't accept it, Zhong Yuanbing would lose face, but the restaurant's wedding day would also be tainted with bad luck, especially with so many guests around. Everyone would then know that their Zhenweiju Restaurant was not on good terms with Deputy County Chief Zhou's nephew.

Zhong Yuanbing really knows how to choose a date.

The surrounding discussions started again.

Gao Dapeng glanced at Li Youcai, then took the initiative to step forward and took the brocade box from Zhong Yuanbing's hand.

"The kitchen is preparing wine and food. Please go to the private room upstairs and sit for a while." Gao Dapeng handed the brocade box in his hand to Wang Wanru and made a gesture of invitation to Zhong Yuanbing.

"Mr. Gao, you're welcome."

Zhong Yuanbing smiled and led someone, followed by Gao Dapeng, up the stairs in big strides.

Li Youcai stood where he was.

He glanced up at Zhong Yuanbing who was going upstairs.

Why didn’t you come earlier or later? Why did you come at this time?

This person made Li Youcai feel a sense of danger.

"This person is too cunning and does things very carefully. If he is an enemy, you must be careful." Wang Wanru, who was standing next to Li Youcai, reminded him in a low voice.

"Ah."

"No matter what, everyone who comes is a guest. I'll treat him today. Next time he comes, I'll charge him."

Li Youcai withdrew his gaze.

Wang Wanru held the big red brocade box and opened the lid, revealing a cloisonné enamel bronze statue of the God of Wealth inside.

"You're quite generous. You can't get this kind of thing here. It's only popular in the capital."

Li Youcai also took a look.

It is indeed very exquisite and it is obviously a valuable item at first glance. However, Li Youcai is not familiar with this kind of thing and cannot tell the specific value of this thing.

"Sister-in-law, do you know about this?"

"I played with it a little when I was a kid, and I also heard about it from my elders, but I don't really know much about it."

Wang Wanru smiled sweetly and covered it up again: "Can you please stop calling me sister-in-law from now on? If you call me sister-in-law, others will think I'm really your sister-in-law, which will affect my future family, you know! I'm a few years older than you, so from now on, you can call me Sister Wanru."

It is understandable that Wang Wanru, who has been a widow for so many years, would find another husband to marry.

Li Youcai didn't think there was anything wrong.

"Okay, but I'm used to calling you sister-in-law, so it's a bit awkward to change it."

Wang Wanru turned her head to look at Li Youcai, and blinked slightly: "I'll put this thing in the manager's office first. There are too many people outside, and don't let anyone steal it."

upstairs.

Although Gao Dapeng was still dissatisfied with Zhong Yuanbing, he still invited Zhong Yuanbing to the most luxurious Tianxi box on the third floor.

The Tianxi Box is the largest and most luxurious in the entire Zhenweijuli, with an interior space of 188 square meters. It has an iron and wood round table that can accommodate 20 people for dining, and the interior is divided into several leisure areas.

There is a tea bar area where you can enjoy tea and discuss philosophy, a movie viewing area where you can watch TV, and even a brand new pool table.

Those who can enter this box are either very close or of noble status.

At this time, in the Tianxi box, Wang Changlin was drinking tea and chatting with the director of the Teng County Telecommunications Bureau. A few people were gathered around the pool table, laughing and joking. There were also a few people watching TV news in the viewing area.

Everyone in the box is a well-known figure in Tengxiang.

As soon as Zhong Yuanbing came in, everyone in the box turned their eyes to him.

Seeing these people in the room, Zhong Yuanbing was also surprised. He knew many of the people here, but he didn't expect that Zhenweiju could invite such prominent people to support its opening.

"Dear leaders, this is Director Zhong of Guangyuan Cannery, and also the nephew of our Deputy County Chief Zhou." Gao Dapeng walked in and introduced to the guests inside.

If Zhong Yuanbing was not the nephew of Deputy County Magistrate Zhou, he would definitely not be able to enter this box with just the title of director of Guangyuan Cannery. There was no other way, because he had a good uncle.

"It's Xiao Zhong. I didn't expect you to come too." Inside the box, the director of the Forestry Bureau had just finished playing a round of billiards. He looked up and saw Zhong Yuanbing and greeted him familiarly.

"Director Zheng, I haven't seen you play basketball for a long time."

While Zhong Yuanbing was smiling, he also gained a deeper understanding of this Zhenwei Restaurant.

Obviously, this is not an ordinary restaurant.

It is more like a gathering place for the powerful people in Teng County.

If that's the case, should I continue with what I've prepared?

Zhong Yuanbing couldn't help but mutter to himself.

He didn't come to negotiate reconciliation with anyone on a whim; he was sincere.

On the contrary, Zhong Yuanbing had done sufficient preparations, investigating both Gao Dapeng and Li Youcai thoroughly, getting to know them well, and making careful plans before choosing the day for the restaurant's opening!
