Chapter 196 The Low-key Gao Fan

Beijing, Hepingmen Roast Duck Restaurant.

There were eight men sitting around a big table, and they were looking at the big master sliced ​​duck next to him.At the master's hand, there is already a rack of ducks that have been cleaned of meat. The duck meat of that duck has already been eaten clean by the men wrapped in lotus leaf cakes. What they are waiting for is the second one on this table. Duck.

"I think a duck really doesn't have much meat, how about we add another one?"

Gao Fan, the host of the meal, asked everyone.

"Don't order any more ducks. In fact, you shouldn't order this duck. It's enough for everyone to taste one." Gu Songtao, the boss of dormitory 449, hurriedly stopped him. However, when he said this, his eyes did not leave. The duck that was being handled had a faint glimmer of halazi at the corner of its mouth.

"Boss, just pull it down. You ate the most duck just now, okay?" The fifth brother Pan Chang revealed carelessly.

"Why, I only ate three rolls." Gu Songtao argued.

"But you roll the most meat." Pan Chang said.

Gu Songtao said embarrassingly: "I have no experience, it's not like you Beijingers often eat roast duck."

Hu Dongming, the second son, interrupted: "I must say that the taste of this roast duck really lives up to its reputation. When I was just admitted to Peking University, my neighbors said that I could eat roast duck when I went to Beijing. As a result, I am now the first one. The first time we ate roast duck, it was thanks to Gao Fan."

"Actually, twelve yuan for a roast duck is really not expensive." Gao Fan said.

"The dishes on this table cost more than twelve yuan. We can't come in and just order a roast duck." The fourth child He Xujie pointed to the dishes on the table and said.

Today is the last one of their final exams.During this period of time, Gao Fan really became the tutor of the whole dormitory, and he did a lot of tutoring for everyone, and everyone benefited from it.

People like Pan Chang, who was at the bottom of the class, felt like they were in a desperate situation. In his words, if Gao Fan hadn't given him a surprise make-up class, he would have had at least three red flags.

In view of this, proposed by He Xujie, all the students in the dormitory said that they should treat Gao Fan to a meal together. Of course, the main idea is that everyone has been together for a semester, so it is time to have a meal together.

Regarding the place to eat, everyone didn't think too much, and thought that the school's internship restaurant was very good.In the past, I saw some teachers or fellow graduate students ordering food and having dinner there, and everyone was so greedy. It would be a good idea to take advantage of the opportunity at the end of the semester to go to Kaiyang Meat.

After Gao Fan heard this proposal, he proposed another plan.He said that everyone in the dormitory except Pan Chang came from other places. It was a pity that he hadn't eaten Peking duck after staying in Beijing for half a year.Therefore, he intends to invite everyone to the Hepingmen Roast Duck Restaurant to have a meal of roast duck, and the cost will be entirely borne by him.

"You don't mean that you can go to your company for reimbursement?" The youngest Wang Yan guessed.

"Low-key, low-key." Gao Fan said with an air of trying to cover up.

For Gao Fan, there is really no pressure to invite his classmates to have a meal of roast duck.Even in a place like the Hepingmen Roast Duck Restaurant these days, it costs less than 100 yuan for eight people to have a big meal.

However, since Wang Yan felt that he was planning to use public funds to treat guests, he might as well admit it directly, so that everyone would not ask to share the bill with him.

If 100 yuan is divided among 8 people, the per capita is 12 yuan, which is a very extravagant expenditure for the students.Since Gao Fan proposed to eat roast duck, it is impossible for everyone to pay.He was still thinking about what name to use to perfuse the past, but Wang Yan gave him a very good reason.

Gao Fan skipped class and returned home, and under the instructions of Zheng Linong, the vice minister of the Ministry of Chemical Industry, he contracted the labor service company of Canghai Chemical Fertilizer Factory and became a manager. This is something everyone knows.

Since he is a manager, he naturally has the right to spend some public funds, so everyone believes what Gao Fan said.

In this era, consumption of public funds is something that can be shown off.The popular saying in the society is the right to not use it, and to become invalid when it expires.

In this way, after the exam, a group of people got on the bus and came to the Hepingmen Roast Duck Restaurant.Gao Fan directly ordered two roast ducks first, then ordered dishes such as scallops with roasted radish, soft fried prawns, steamed flounder, Kung Pao chicken, and several beers. Yuan.

When Gao Fan was ordering, several classmates listened tremblingly, and someone secretly pulled Gao Fan’s clothes to ask him to order less. Even if it was public funds, the bill was too big, so it would be difficult to explain it when he went back. ?
However, having said that, everyone's appetite is still very honest.As soon as the dishes ordered by Gao Fan came out, they were immediately snapped up by everyone.The speed at which the master sliced ​​the duck was far behind the speed at which everyone ate the duck. No, everyone felt that there was nothing in their stomachs, and there was no food on the table. Everyone could only wait for the remaining duck.

"Come on, everyone, let's have a drink of beer! Because there is such a capable person as Gao Fan in our dormitory!"

After casting another sympathetic look at the duck that was being maimed, Gu Songtao raised his beer glass and suggested to everyone.

"Yes, drink first!"

Everyone also looked back and raised their glasses one after another.After all, everyone is a civilized person, and watching a duck like this is indeed not polite enough.

"Boss is overrated, what kind of person am I?"

Gao Fan also raised his glass, gestured to everyone, took a sip of the wine, and said modestly.

"We are still students in school, and you are already a manager. Are you still capable?" He Xujie commented.

Gao Fan said with a smile: "My company is a large collective enterprise for unemployed young people. As far as the people at our table are concerned, no one will be able to be a division chief or manager in the future. The management organization is better than ours. Labor service companies are at least five levels higher.”

"That's true." Old Seventh Chen Chuanlin nodded and said, "We don't need to belittle ourselves. I can't say how a Peking University graduate will be in Beijing, but if he is put in our Xinye Province, he will be a deputy director There is no problem at all.”

"Old Six, what level is your current position?" He Xujie asked Gao Fan with a smile.

Gao Fan pretended to count with his fingers: "Our chemical fertilizer factory is at the department level because of its large scale. The logistics department in the factory is considered to be at the stock level. Our labor service company is under the logistics department. What is this? Heel class?"

"Ha! It doesn't matter what level you are. What's important is that Gao Fan is young, so he can issue an invoice for a treat." Pan Chang commented with a smile, "Our Department of Chemistry is a department-level unit. Our Director Teng invited someone to come here. If you come to Hepingmen for a meal, maybe you need the school's approval, right?"
