After listening to a shocking joke told by Director Yan at the Tourism Bureau, Xue Xiang left without saying a word without even looking at Director Yan. His tall figure that quickly disappeared gave all the officials at the Tourism Bureau a limitless imagination.
space.
It was already eleven o'clock when we left the tourism bureau. When we got on the bus, Jiang Fangping said: "Chief, it's time for lunch. I know a few good restaurants!"
Xue Xiang said: "Eating is a trivial matter, just stay nearby. Anyway, we are going to Baofeng No. 1 Middle School in the afternoon, so let's go to eat next to No. 1 Middle School."
Baofeng No. 1 Middle School is one of the best high schools in the Dejiang area. In the past two years, it has accumulated quite a reputation in the college entrance examination, the highest battle in the education world, and has produced more than a dozen students from Beijing University and Qinghuayuan.
Since the college entrance examination is excellent, the local government pays little attention to it. After all, education is also one of the important achievements of local leaders. As a result, the educational resources in the Dejiang area must be tilted towards Baofeng No. 1 Middle School. This makes Baofeng No. 1 Middle School
Both hardware and software have become the best in Dejiang, and there are faint signs of being on par with the nationally important High School Affiliated to Shu University.[
It is precisely because of the amazing conditions of Baofeng No. 1 Middle School that the Dejiang area chose Baofeng No. 1 Middle School instead of the two sports schools in the competition to select candidates for the provincial sports team.
When the car arrived at the dining area near Baofeng No. 1 Middle School, I saw many students wearing various Yundong short-sleeved shorts eating lunch at a roadside stall.
Although there are still two days until school starts, there are still many parents who can sign up and students coming to watch the competition. The entire dining area is packed and lively.
Jiang Fangping looked at the crowded crowd, frowned, turned back from the co-pilot and asked, "Chief, it's really noisy here, do you think we should..."
"I don't think it's necessary. It's just a meal. It doesn't matter where you eat it. Don't worry about it!"
Xue Laosan went to the place originally to understand the actual situation of the department he was responsible for. How could he understand it without contacting people? On the contrary, this kind of place is the best place to hear the truth, "Master Jiang, drive forward. Drive to the school gate.
Stop over there!”
"Chief, you are building the plank road openly and crossing Chencang secretly!" Dai Yubin said with a smile: "Director Jiang, our leader has to use his free time to eat. I'm convinced. I'm convinced!"
Xue Xiang ordered the car to be driven around. The meaning was obvious. Originally, in Dejiang these days, 99% of the people who could afford to ride in a car were government officials. He drove the car to the food stall and stopped.
Even if someone wants to say a few words to curse the official, they will definitely not be able to say it.
Jiang Fangping smiled and flattered a few words, but secretly sighed in his heart, following such a leader, there will be a lot of worry in the future!
Originally, other leaders were avoiding things and pursuing political achievements. But this young leader was focusing on the past.
It seems that Xue Xiang and the others were very lucky. When they arrived at the first small restaurant, they saw the boss adding a table. As soon as he set up a low table with some crooked legs, the four of them dragged the bench.
The table was occupied.
The four people's indifferent behavior immediately aroused dissatisfaction all over the sky.
Xue Xiang shook his head with a wry smile, not even thinking of standing up. The boss even apologized profusely and coaxed a bunch of noisy students.
Originally, the four Xue Xiangs seemed to be well-off people, and doing their business would naturally be more profitable than doing the business of poor students.
After persuading for a while, several students dispersed immediately, but one tall student with a flat head refused to leave. He scolded the boss that he was a snobbery, a profiteer, and had no integrity in doing business. The table was obviously added for them, why?
Just change hands and give it to someone else!
The student had a stubborn look on his face. The boss refused to listen to him no matter what he tried to do. Finally, the boss got angry and slapped him in the face, scolding him: "In my shop, you can feed whoever you want. You can eat two steamed buns a meal."
A plate of cabbage and tofu, why should I serve you?"
The student blushed and glared at the boss, speechless.
"Okay, okay, boss, stop arguing, hurry up and serve the food. This classmate, come and sit, come and sit, it's not like we can't sit down!"
Xue Xiang waved his hand and stopped the conflict.[
When the boss saw a group of students pointing fingers at him, he knew that he had provoked public outrage and did not dare to make any more trouble. He gave the taller student a fierce look and went back into the room.
The tall student had a bad temper. Even after being insulted, he did not retreat. Instead, he sat down on the empty seat that Xue Xiang had vacated. He took out a high school geometry book from his bag and flipped through it to himself.
Ignore Xue Xiang and the others.
Soon, the dishes for Xue Xiang and the four of them were served, including four dishes and one soup, braised carp, stuffed pork elbow with lotus root, ground three delicacies, farm-style stir-fried pork, and tomato and egg soup. Although this is a small shop, the home-cooked dishes are clearly
When cooked, the color and aroma are delicious, especially the large handfuls of red chili peppers that are indispensable in every dish. Just looking at them makes people salivate.
As soon as the food came to the table, the students at the neighboring tables couldn't help but slap the table and yell to serve the food quickly. If the food is not served, they will stop eating. Some even more boldly scolded the boss for being snobbish.
Obviously, Xue Xiang arrived at the table first, which aroused their dissatisfaction.
Xue Xiang looked at Lao Jiang who had left earlier. The latter shrank his head and said, "Comrade...comrade, we are in a hurry, so I went to the kitchen to say hello!"
"This will never happen again!"
Xue Xiang picked up the chopsticks and was about to start using them. He suddenly realized that the scene was extremely disharmonious and said, "Master Jiang, give this classmate a bowl and chopsticks. Since we are on the same table, it is fate. Let's eat together!"
Lao Jiang responded and left the table, but the tall student turned a deaf ear and continued to hold the book and watch quietly.
Soon, Lao Jiang left and returned, placing the bowls and chopsticks in front of the tall student, but the guy remained motionless.
Jiang Fangping frowned and said, "Little classmate, this is not good for you!"
The tall student finally looked away from the book, "What's wrong? The table doesn't belong to you, it's all for eating. You eat yours and I'll wait for mine. No one is in the way!"
"Okay, Fang Ping, let's eat!"
Xue Xiang picked up his chopsticks and attacked the fattest hoof flower.
The leader took down the first chopsticks, and the three of them followed suit. Xue Xiang didn't say anything, and no wine was served at noon. Although they only ate, the several dishes were very appetizing, and the four of them ate deliciously.
After all, the tall student was not an eminent monk. How could he resist the temptation? The strong aroma came to his nostrils, which instantly disturbed him and made him unable to read. It was as if all the theorems and formulas in the book had turned into carp and pig's trotters.
With a grunt, the tall student finally couldn't hold it back anymore and his throat vibrated hard.
The four of them heard it funny, but they didn't want to touch his cold butt with warm faces, and continued to eat separately.
Xue Laosan became a leader, so he started to eat slowly. This was not because he wanted to show some dignity, but because he knew that if he put down his chopsticks, the other three would definitely put down their bowls.
Finally, the tall student's food came. As expected, it was a plate of steamed buns and a plate of cabbage and tofu. The woman who served the food stared at him and paid the money and food stamps before leaving.
At this point, I have to mention that at present, the central government has liberalized the individual economy, but tickets have not completely withdrawn from daily life. However, tickets no longer have the absolute binding force on consumption that they did in the past.
Take this student's meal as an example. If he doesn't have food stamps, he can eat with just money. However, the cost of the meal will have to go up a bit. If he orders meat dishes, the rate of increase will have to go up. This is the price.
The dual-track system can be regarded as the most criticized point in the early stage of reform, but it has to be done.[
But he said that after the student got his meal, he was just about to put down his books and start moving, when something unexpected happened.
"Hey, isn't this the sprint prince Zhao Jie? What's the matter? You're just dealing with this thing at noon. You look down on our buddy too much. Do you think you can outrun our buddy on an empty stomach?"
The speaker was also a young man who looked like a student. His short sports shirts and shorts fully highlighted his strong physique. However, the pigtails on the back of his head ruined the overall image of an uptight young man.
Zhao Jie turned his head and glanced, then turned away again, ignoring him, and reached out to grab the steamed buns on the plate.
The little braid suddenly changed color, grabbed Zhao Jie's hair, and lifted him up, "I'm a fool, I'm asking you to pretend to be like me, I'm warning you, stay away from Wang Fen, otherwise, let alone participate in the competition, believe it or not
I won’t even let you take the college entrance examination!”
Zhao Jie opened the braid with a palm and was about to fight back, but was clamped by several strong students in the same attire behind the braid, preventing him from moving.
The mountain was shaking and the ground was shaking, so that the already lame table was about to tip over. Thanks to Xue Laosan's quick hands, he stabilized the table and the whole meal was not broken up!
"Okay, we are all classmates, why are you making a fuss? It's over, it's over!"
Xue Laosan stood up and stretched out his hand to pull at him a few times. The strong students immediately stepped back a few steps as if they were drunk.
The little braid was very knowledgeable, and stared at Xue Xiang secretly, not daring to move rashly, but he was a prominent student in this area, and in public, he would not lose his prestige no matter what, so he said coldly: "What the hell are you doing?"
Where are you, stop meddling in your own business!"
"Little bastard, who are you talking to?"
Lao Jiang roared out, and Huo Di stood up, tall and majestic, holding a bench in his hand.
Speaking of which, Lao Jiang was not Xue Xiang's full-time driver, but just an ordinary driver in the small bus service run by the administrative office. Today was Xue Xiang's first trip, and Jiang Fangping chose him to drive.
It was because Xue Xiang did not have a regular driver that Lao Jiang started to think about it. After all, these days, the driver is more closely following the leader than the secretary. At this time, when he finally encounters the opportunity to perform, he refuses to let it go.
However, to say the least, even if he had no intention of doing so, he still had to step forward because the driver was already responsible for protecting the leader.
The little pigtail glared at Lao Jiang angrily, and then looked at the four adults on Xue Xiang's side. He didn't dare to put it right. He glared at Lao Jiang and cursed, "If you dare, wait here, I will kill you!" After that,
Then he led his group of brawny students. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote at Qidian. Your monthly vote is my biggest motivation. Mobile phone users please read it.)
