At noon, Ye Shaofeng came to the government canteen. The provincial government and the provincial party committee initially had two restaurants. Later, in response to the country's call for diligence and frugality, of course, they just went through the motions and demolished the two canteens. In the middle of the courtyard, a three-story restaurant was built. The first and second floors combined can accommodate thousands of people dining at the same time. It is a bit like a college cafeteria. However, the hygienic conditions and hardware facilities inside and the nutritional level of the food It is several levels higher than a university cafeteria. Even the cafeteria of the most famous university of science and technology in the country will never be able to compete with this restaurant of the provincial party committee and provincial government.
Moreover, eating here is all at cost price. If you want a two-meat and two-vegetarian lunch box in the university cafeteria, it will cost at least ten yuan, plus a drink or a bowl of soup. Your lunch will be based on at least two principles. It costs ten yuan to eat, which is relatively economical, but here, the basic working meal consists of two meat and two vegetables, plus a vegetable or mushroom, and a glass of vitamin C juice. These things only cost five yuan.
The first and second floors are where ordinary civil servants eat. Cadres at division level or above can go to the third floor to eat. The third floor belongs to the private room area. There are more than 20 private rooms of various sizes, and private rooms are also divided into Classes such as Private Room No. 1 and Private Room No. 2 have never been open to the public. Only members of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee are eligible to dine in these two private rooms. Only the Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee can dine in Private Room No. 1. Four people, the governor, the executive vice governor, and the full-time deputy secretary came to have dinner.
Of course, when you dine here, you will definitely not have the same big pot meal as on the first and second floors. Instead, you can order special dishes, with flavors from all over the world. The chef will make whatever you want. It is said that a chef was hired recently. The country's top Sichuan cuisine chefs seem to have won awards in some national cooking competitions. These officials can also enjoy delicious food after work.
When Ye Shaofeng came to the room, Shangguan Yunqing had already ordered the dishes. When he walked into the private room, Shangguan Yunqing hurriedly greeted him: "Shaofeng, come on, let's cook inside."
There are only two of them in total, but meeting on the 1st can at least accommodate ** people to eat at the same time. Although only four people can enter this room in the whole province, any one of the four of them can invite others. Come in and have a meal together, so in addition to being extra luxurious, this private room must of course have enough capacity to accommodate seven or eight people. Such a private room is quite large in the canteen of a government agency.
Ye Shaofeng and Shangguan Yunqing sat down next to each other. The food had not yet been served on the table. At this time, the waiter came in and asked: "Secretary, can you place an order?"
"That's enough," Shangguan Yunqing said.
Placing an order means that we can start cooking. It is rare for Shangguan Yunqing and the others to eat in the agency canteen. In the kitchen, they must remember their table to cook first. There is not much food, and it will be ready in a while.
Now there is no food on the dining table. Instead, there is a bottle of mare's milk wine with Mongolian words written on the bottle. Ye Shaofeng has never drunk this kind of wine, so he can't see its name. He only knows that this kind of wine has a milky aroma. And the alcohol content is relatively high.
"Today we both have to have a drink, but no one should drink too much. The main thing is for you to taste my kumiss. This was brought back to me by an old colleague when he came back from Mongolia. It's nothing. "It's a good wine, but the taste is definitely authentic," Shangguan Yunqing said with a smile. Although he said it was not a good wine, but looking at the packaging and the craftsmanship on the bottle, the price will definitely not be higher than Wuliangye. under.
Nowadays, the country is advocating frugality, so in the officialdom, people don’t dare to be like Wuliangye Moutai. Even if they drink, they pour the wine into the Erguotou wine bottle to hide the public’s eyes. The more high-ranking officials are, the more They don’t talk about how good they drink, how good they smoke, how expensive watches they wear, and how luxurious clothes they wear. Their common attitude is to pretend to be poor in front of the world. In fact, many officials have a pair of socks. It's two to three hundred dollars.
So, now we see some people who talk about how much money they make and what famous brands they buy. They love to be so flamboyant in everything and show off their wealth. They are definitely not awesome people. The richer they are, the more They are powerful people, and the less they show off their money and rights, the really capable people are always pretending to be pigs and eating tigers. Only when you are eaten will you realize that the other person is such an awesome person.
Therefore, when we see people who show off their wealth, you can completely ignore them or despise them, because such people are very superficial.
Shangguan Yunqing asked Ye Shaofeng to drink. Ye Shaofeng was about to refuse, but unexpectedly, Shangguan Yunqing took the initiative to pour wine for Ye Shaofeng. Ye Shaofeng was startled and quickly snatched the wine bottle and said: "Secretary, I'll do it. Come,"
"You sit down, you sit down. This meal, I am here to take care of you, and I am here to serve you." As he said that, Shangguan Yunqing had already started pouring wine into Ye Shaofeng's wine cup.
A dignified secretary of the provincial party committee, who has not poured wine for others for many years, now pours wine for Ye Shaofeng. This has shown that Shangguan Yunqing wants to obey Ye Shaofeng. There is no one in the room, and Shangguan Yunqing has fully expressed his gratitude to Ye Shaofeng. Ye Shaofeng showed weakness.
Ye Shaofeng naturally knew the meaning of this meal, so he immediately raised his glass and said, "Secretary, I respect you."
"This cup should be my toast to you, thank you for doing so much for Province H,"
"This is what I should do. Let's drink." With that, Ye Shaofeng drank it all in one gulp. The two of them had already started drinking before the food was served on the table.
Shangguan Yunqing also finished drinking and was about to continue pouring wine for Ye Shaofeng. Ye Shaofeng had already taken the lead and got the wine bottle to pour wine for Shangguan Yunqing. Although Shangguan Yunqing was now starting to decline, and even his status was about to be lost, but After all, you are still the top leader now, how can you always let others pour wine for you Ye Shaofeng?
"Shaofeng, the province can't live without you. After you left for a month, I realized that once you left, many things became unclear. It can be said that you are the soul of the officialdom of Province H," Shangguan Yunqing said .
Logically speaking, Shangguan Yunqing only drank a cup of wine and shouldn't talk drunkenly. Ye Shaofeng smiled awkwardly and said, "You are on top of me."
"Shaofeng, we can be considered a family. Although you don't accept my sister, I know that you have feelings. Do you know how much I hope that you can be with my sister? How much I hope that the Ye family can be together." Can you live in harmony with our Shangguan family," Shangguan Yunqing said earnestly, as if he was telling the truth...
