After this matter was over, the talks between the two parties made rapid progress. Zhao Wuji had to be both a translator and a commentator. Among the many Chinese people, he not only stole the halo of professional translators from the Provincial Foreign Affairs Office, but also the one who was present.
Government officials seemed to have become supporting characters or puppets, having to be led around by Zao Wou-Ki, the Pitts and others.
According to the agreement between the two parties, after having lunch at the county government guest house at noon, Peter and others, accompanied by Chinese personnel, will drive directly to Fengshan. In the afternoon, they will visit the folk scenery of Fengshanchang Town, and after dinner, go to the Banzhu River below Fengshan
They caught river fish and held a picnic (Zhao Wuji joined in, because Lao Mi likes nightlife).
At about 12 o'clock in the evening, I sent Lao Mi and others to the farmhouse to sleep (the families we chose were all party members and cadres. Not only were their family conditions better, but they also had high political consciousness. This was also Zao Wuji's suggestion). We got up at 8 o'clock the next morning and had breakfast.
Then at 9 o'clock, we started walking to Wukesong Village to visit the wood carving and root carving crafts and the production of the cooperative, and experience the scenery of the original Chinese forest. We stayed in Wukesong Village that night.
After breakfast the next day, we walked down the mountain and visited the bamboo weaving crafts and bamboo weaving cooperative in Shanghe Village. We went back to the village for lunch at noon and finalized the export trade framework for wood carvings and bamboo weaving crafts. In the afternoon, we returned to Lujiang to sign a formal business contract, and the Lujiang County Party Committee and Government held a formal dinner.
Welcome Consul Peter and his entourage. On the morning of the 5th, that is, Sunday morning, Peter and others left Lujiang and headed for Zizhou. Zhao Wuji's mission ended when Peter and others were put on the bus early on the morning of the 5th.
Lunch is relatively simple, but it cannot be said to be simple. There are four cold dishes, eight hot dishes, two soups and two snacks. There are Chinese bamboo chopsticks, knives, forks, cups and plates and other Western utensils on the table. Everyone can eat whatever they like.
Zhao Wuji thought that he could easily hide in the side and have another free official meal, but he was pulled by Sonny to the main table of Pete. At this table, it was originally seven old rice and Mo Kai, why?
Keli and Hu Yongsheng shared a table of ten people, but Sonny asked the Chinese female translator Li Yang to switch positions with Zhao Wuji.
"Ni media, in this case, let Lao Mi show his knowledge again." Every time he served a dish, Zhao Wuji would explain it, from the selection of materials, ingredients, knife skills, heat to the hygiene that Lao Mi was most concerned about.
and nutrition, introduce to them one by one what Chinese cuisine is.
When serving a fish dish, Zao Wou-Ki clearly pointed out that there was something wrong with the kitchen's knife skills. Zao Wou-Ki also gracefully scratched the fish a few times with his knife. Zao Wou-Ki first spoke in Chinese and then in English.
After telling it once, of course it aroused Sonny's question, "Mr. Zao Wou-Ki, aren't you a gourmet?"
"Secretary Hu, you have been in Lujiang for so long, which restaurant in Lujiang do you think has delicious food?" Zhao Wuji did not answer Sonny's words, but asked Hu Yongsheng.
"As for the dishes, if I really want to say that the taste is good and the service is good, it has to be the 'Lujiang Delicious Roast Meat'. My guy often cuts a few taels of roast meat in the afternoon and drinks a few taels of wine at dinner. As for the other things
, although it is also delicious, but compared with the delicious roast pork in Lujiang, it becomes tasteless." Hu Yongsheng thought for a while and said seriously.
"Secretary Hu, I've also eaten at that barbecue restaurant. However, compared to mine, their craftsmanship is a little bit inferior." Zhao Wuji said confidently.
When he opened "Lujiang Delicious Barbecued Meat", Zhao Wuji only learned about marinating and marinating to a "proficient level of 100". However, Zao Wouji did not stop learning cooking skills.
He has learned "Mastery 100" in both the dishes and their preparation methods. As for Lu Jiang's delicious barbecue chef Li Gang, his level is only equivalent to one-third of Zao Wou-ki's skills. If Zao Wou-ki needs it, he can do it in one day
For example, improve the marinating level to the level of "Master 100".
It's just that Zao Wuji feels that the current "Mastery 100" is enough to cope with the current situation.
"Haha, isn't there a barbecue party tonight? Remember to show off your skills then?" Hu Yongsheng was actually conquered by Zhao Wuji's demeanor.
Hu Yongsheng has been following Liu Boyi, Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee for a long time. He has seen people like crucian carp crossing the river. The so-called dragons and phoenixes among men and the proud sons of heaven are just like that in his eyes. However, he is only about two years younger than Comrade Zhao Dezheng.
Hu Yongsheng was completely impressed by Zhao Wuji when he met this junior.
I was impressed not only by Zao Wuji's demeanor, but also by the scene of the battle of wits and courage with Lao Mi in the conference room just now, including his jingle-like English, including the masterpiece of calligraphy and painting. Although Hu Yongsheng himself did not study that thing
, but it doesn’t mean that he doesn’t understand. In addition, the song “Intimate Lover” and “Ussuli Barcarolle” sung by Zao Wou-Ki is even better than the original song. In addition, Hu Yongsheng has heard of Zao Wou-Ki’s skills.
, Ni media, this is such a wonderful person, Hu Yongsheng even had a hunch that if he was an enemy of Zhao Wuji, he would most likely not be his opponent.
Hu Yongsheng's feeling was very accurate. In a few days, the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee would come down to inspect Zhao Wuki, and he also received a call from Liu Boyi, directly ordering him to take care of Zhao Wuki. This was a young man who was being inspected by the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee.
Cadres: "This guy is also very good at economic construction?" At that time, Hu Yongsheng was completely convinced. Even his former big boss wanted to praise someone. This weight is really too heavy!
Don’t Chinese people say that they should eat without talking and sleep without speaking? Wouldn’t it be contrary to Chinese etiquette for Zao Wuji to comment on the dishes? In fact, the Chinese saying that eating without talking before sleeping is not absolute. You see, a lot of business is done in
Was it negotiated over a wine table?
However, because of Zao Wuji's explanation, the meal changed its taste, from just eating to fill the stomach, to a vivid food education and food tasting class. The chef of Lujiang County Guesthouse, whose taste
The treatment was still very upright. When he heard about it later, Sonny even took out a tape recorder and recorded Zao Wou-ki's explanation.
Indeed, it is difficult to hear such a vivid explanation. At least, Sonny has never heard it.
Sitting on the minibus in the afternoon, Zhao Wuji also had a lot to talk about, because he couldn't take any time off even if he wanted to. Along the way, Devna and the three American women were not afraid of the bumps on the road at all (because of their rough skin and thick flesh).
She stared out the window excitedly and asked this and that, and the translator from the Provincial Foreign Affairs Office grew up in the city. She had never seen the scenery in the countryside. She didn't even know about the magic horses growing in the fields, so she wanted to ask her to translate it.
Don’t think about it. The Chinese translator Li Yang has lived in Hong Kong since he was a child and he also knows nothing about things in Xichuan.
In fact, after the appearance of Zhao Wuji, the beauties of Devna basically gave up the translation service of the Provincial Foreign Affairs Office. Every time they asked questions, there was a prefix of "Mist Zhao", and it was not okay for Zhao Wuji not to answer.
I have to explain the characters of Pete and his party. There are seven people in this group, but they are 3 men and 4 women. Three are men, one is Pete, one is Onito, the commercial counselor of the Mi consulate in Pingyuan; one is Jack Lee, and one is Mi.
Cultural Counselor of the U.S. Consulate in Pingyuan; 4 women, Devna, Sonny, and Li Yang were introduced. There is still one woman named Aiweijia, the second secretary of the U.S. Consulate in Pingyuan, equivalent to Devna before.
Rank. Among this group of people, the oldest one is Peter, who is in his thirties, and the youngest one is Ai Weijia, who looks to be in his early twenties, has an equally good figure and is full of youth. Compared with Sonny,
A little less mature and charming, but more youthful and strong.
These women asked about horses, and Zao Wuji answered: mulberry trees, jujube trees, locust trees, cypress trees, yellow thorn trees, mulberry trees, foxtail grass, pickerel grass, acidic soil, alkaline soil, laterite layer, sandstone, sweet potato,
Taro, corn stalks, sorghum, soybeans, paddy fields, dry land, yield per mu, rice yield, flour yield... They are all common things and common things in the rural areas of Xichuan mountainous area. These names are not very common to Zhao Wuji.
Familiar, after all, he also lived in the city in his previous life, but since coming to Fengshan, he has really "advanced" some agricultural knowledge. Of course, during this period, Zhao Wuji severely punished his partner Li Haibing.
Very "annoyed".
After arriving at Fengshan, Zao Wou-ki also had no time to spare. He told the American guests about Fengshan folk houses, the cross-door structure, the southern and northern Chinese architecture, the west facing east and the north facing south, as well as main rooms, shrines, thresholds,
The master bedroom, the second bedroom, the boudoir, and the warehouse are all exquisite, as well as the invention and improvement of the plow in farm tools, the materials and manufacturing of windmills... Basically, Zao Wuki gave the American guests a rich natural and agricultural lesson in Xichuan.
Mo Kai, He Keli, Hu Yongsheng and others also listened with great interest.
The dinner was a casual dinner held in the Fengshan Township Government Canteen. At this time, Fei Renqiang, the party committee secretary, took on the important task of commanding the canteen and serving food to the leaders and American guests. The superior arranged this because Fei Renqiang took into account the importance of Fengshan to Fengshan.
I am very familiar with him and can help him if a guest asks anything.
Of course, the person in charge of serving food was Felina, a little beauty from Fengshan. Feilina quietly told Zhao Wuki that she won the first place in the speech held by the County Women's Federation, and said that she would invite Zao Wuki in a few days.
Have a meal.
It stands to reason that what Felina did was against discipline. It was not that escorts were not allowed to talk to people around American guests at will (for fear of causing problems), but Felina couldn't help her excitement. She must tell this good news.
Tell my beloved Teacher Zhao that I don’t care even if I get punished.
Felina spoke very quietly, and she said it in Zhao Wuji's ear, because she also knew the severity of discipline.
However, Felina's little move was discovered by Sonny, who was sitting opposite Zao Wou-ki. Sonny immediately asked: "Mr. Zao Wou-ki, is this your little lover?"
"The Ni media, this is asking for death!" Zhao Wuji wished he could slap him. Zhao Wuji was not afraid of Fei Renqiang. It would take only a matter of minutes to deal with Fei Renqiang. What he was afraid of was Mo Kai and the other three big men.
Leader, because of his relationship with Li Xinxin, any leader who pays attention to him will soon know. So, if Sonny said this, the potential harm would be great.
