Era: 1979 From mountain man to richest man

Chapter 77 Best assist, generous gifts, free bricks

Chen Jiangtao was also a little surprised when he saw Song Chaoyang.

The reason why he is here is actually because his old leader is also on this inspection team.

He has traveled to various places in the province over the years.

He is more familiar with various places in the province than anyone else.

Therefore, he was recommended by the old leader to serve as a staff member in the inspection team.

But he was just a companion.

The current scene was not suitable for greeting Song Chaoyang.

So he just nodded to Song Chaoyang, which was considered a greeting.

Song Chaoyang also smiled in return.

Although Chen Jiangtao was a cadre of a provincial unit, his appearance here really surprised Song Chaoyang.

It’s just that it’s too late to ask now.

When he saw Kong Fan, he stood up and called Song Chaoyang to his seat.

Hearing that Song Chaoyang faced this large table of leaders, he walked over without any stage fright.

His face was calm and indifferent.

Kong Fan couldn't help but take a high look.

He secretly said in his heart: This guy has good mental quality.

Wait until Song Chaoyang comes to his side.

He introduced to a leader who was about fifty years old and said:

"Team Leader Gao, this is Xiao Song who made this braised turtle."

Song Chaoyang looked at Team Leader Gao, who was wearing a Chinese tunic suit.

A pair of tortoiseshell glasses hung on his face.

Chubby looked at him with a smile.

He knew that the so-called Team Leader Gao should be the leader of the inspection team.

When Song Chaoyang looked at Team Leader Gao, the other party was also looking at him. He pushed up his glasses. After seeing Song Chaoyang clearly, the other party was a little surprised:

"Such a young comrade?"

He pointed to the braised turtle on the table and said:
"Comrade Xiao Song, are you really the one who made this braised turtle?"

Song Chaoyang was not modest and nodded.

Kong Fan also smiled and said:

"Team Leader Gao, I just watched him do it with my own eyes."

Team Leader Gao smiled and nodded, giving Song Chaoyang a thumbs up.

Then he called to the secretary next to him to get an empty cup.

He poured a glass of wine himself and handed it to Song Chaoyang:

"Not bad, not bad. I've been to so many places. Comrade Xiao Song, this dish you cooked is particularly good."

"Better than the ones I've had before."

"Fragrant, fresh, tender, soft, and elastic, you have done all five!"

"It's not easy!"

“And this soft-shelled turtle is very old, it’s really top quality!”

"You put your heart into it!"

"You praise me!" Song Chaoyang nodded with a smile and took the wine glass handed to him. As soon as he heard these words, he knew that this leader was also an old gourmet.

Team Leader Gao raised his glass:
"Comrade Xiao Song, thank you for allowing me to eat such delicious food!"

"A toast to you!"

Seeing how polite the smiling leader was, Song Chaoyang clinked glasses with him respectfully and drank.

After finishing his drink, Song Chaoyang put down his glass, and the scene was considered over.

Next, he was sent out by Kong Fan's secretary.

Then a separate private room was arranged for him to have lunch.

The originally mentioned three dishes and one soup have now become eight dishes, plus a bottle of Moutai.

Song Chaoyang had to sigh: Sure enough, after helping, the treatment will be different.

At that moment, Song Chaoyang was not polite and directly picked up the chopsticks and started eating and drinking.

Eight dishes were enough for him to eat with his cheeks open.

These meals are exactly the same as those eaten by the leaders.

It’s all made by Chef Chen.

But to be honest, although Chef Chen is not good at cooking turtles, he can cook other dishes quite well.

Although it's not great, I can't fault it.

In this era, he can get very little information, unlike in Song Chaoyang's previous life, where he could see so many cooking masters sharing their skills on the Internet.

In the era of traffic, a large number of chefs from state banquets come out to make videos.

That kind of situation is simply unimaginable in this era.

Who has ever seen a large group of state banquet chefs teach you how to cook, just to get a thumbs up?
These days, who doesn’t regard their cooking skills as their own heirlooms?

If you want to learn, you won’t be able to learn the real skills without struggling for three to five years.

Chef Chen is in this county. Apart from being taught by his previous master, he can only improve his cooking skills by himself.

It is completely different from the information that Song Chaoyang could easily obtain in his previous life.

And this is the limitation of the times.

So if Song Chaoyang shows his hand casually, it will be crushing.

Song Chaoyang didn't drink while eating.

Instead, he stuffed the bottles directly into his pocket.

This bottle of Maotai Supply and Marketing Co., Ltd. costs fifteen yuan if you have a ticket.

It’s even more expensive without a ticket.

He also has no interest in drinking. He plans to keep this bottle of wine to treat guests when the family house is completed, or simply exchange it for money.

Song Chaoyang ate more than half of the eight dishes. In the end, he couldn't eat any more, so he put down his chopsticks.

Looking at the two untouched dishes, Song Chaoyang felt a little pity.

Why didn't you bring a lunch box?
It’s great to take away, these are all meat dishes.

Or you could call this guy Qin Tie to come over and eat together, but unfortunately, I really can't eat anymore.

After grabbing his wine, Song Chaoyang stood up, opened the door of the box, and walked outside.

As soon as I went out, I met Kong Fan's secretary.

The two of them said hello and asked what Kong Fan was doing at the moment. He also sold the turtle and brought the letter to help Kong Fan solve the problem. After having a meal, it was time to leave.

The secretary told Song Chaoyang to wait for a while, as Kong Fan was discussing important matters at the moment.

Let him go to the box to drink tea first, and let Kong Fan come to him later. He has made a great contribution with his meal today. If things are done later, Secretary Kong Da will definitely thank him personally.

Song Chaoyang thought for a while, pulled the secretary over and took a look at his watch.

I found that it was already half past one in the afternoon.

He and Qin Tie made an appointment to go back together at three o'clock.

Song Chaoyang told Kong Fan's secretary about this, and the secretary directly said that even if he couldn't make up the time, there was a guest house where he could stay, and it would be no problem to send Song Chaoyang back by car.

He asked Song Chaoyang to wait in peace for a while.

After that, he asked the staff to make a cup of good tea for Song Chaoyang.

Then he hurried back to the box over there.

Since everyone said so, Song Chaoyang had no choice but to return to the box and drink tea.

After about 40 minutes, the door of the box was pushed open.

Kong Fan walked in with a smile on his face, then enthusiastically held Song Chaoyang's hand and said to him:
"Xiao Song, you have been a big help with this lunch today."

"You saved our Xiaoyun a few days ago, and you saved me this time!"

This is not an exaggeration at all.

This time the inspection team came down to mainly inspect two counties.

One is this county and the other is the county next door.

The conditions on both sides are similar, and who you choose depends on the leader's ideas.

So during the time when the inspection team came down, they had been thinking of ways to win.

However, the leader of the inspection team never relented.

After finishing this meal today, the leader of the inspection team finally relaxed.

Then they just have to keep working hard.

I can definitely get things done.

Although the matter has not been completely settled, at this point, as long as nothing unexpected happens, it is only a matter of time before it is settled.

Song Chaoyang's dish today was definitely the best assist for his final goal.

So in order to thank Song Chaoyang, Kong Fan asked the finance department to directly pay 100 yuan to Song Chaoyang, which would be counted as labor expenses for today's cooking.

Song Chaoyang was a little polite, didn't insist anymore, and accepted the money.

Since the other party wants to thank you and I happen to be short of money, I just accept it.

But this time when he entered the city, he got two hundred yuan directly, which somewhat surprised Song Chaoyang.

Originally, I just planned to come here and sell turtles for 200 yuan, but after selling them, I made a dish with the turtles, and I got yuan.

Then Kong Fan expressed to Song Chaoyang:

"If you need help with anything in the future, you can come to me directly."

"As long as I can help within my ability, I will definitely help you solve the problem."

When Song Chaoyang heard this, he immediately remembered the bricks in the old cinema at the bearing factory.

So I immediately told Kong Fan and wanted him to solve it.

After listening to Song Chaoyang's words, Kong Fan didn't make any ink, so he asked his secretary to make a phone call.

Then he wrote a note to Song Chaoyang and asked him to fill in the bricks himself.

These bricks are considered abandoned.

Selling money is only done by the person in charge of the demolition.

Song Chaoyang held the note and felt dumbfounded for a moment.

Originally, I just planned to let him know so that I could buy some privately.

As a result, it became free now.

Of course, Song Chaoyang didn't plan to take much in one go.

According to the original plan, he used these discarded second-hand bricks for the courtyard wall and pig pen bricks for his own house, but he still planned to buy new ones.

After all, it is for people to live in, so it is always better to be new.

After all, I don’t need that much money now.

After finishing the things here, Song Chaoyang planned to leave, but when leaving, he was still thinking about whether to say hello to Chen Jiangtao.

It's just that Chen Jiangtao is obviously a little busy at the moment.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Song Chaoyang had no choice but to leave here first.

After leaving the door, he headed directly towards the previously demolished cinema.

As soon as we arrived at the cinema this time, the attitude of the person in charge immediately changed 180 degrees.

Not only did he give away free bricks, he even asked where Song Chaoyang wanted to go.

They directly arranged for the large Jiefang truck from the bearing factory to pull over.

Originally, Song Chaoyang planned to use the tractor on the brigade to pull part of the truck back.

Unexpectedly, the other party directly gave him a one-time solution.

Sure enough, there is someone in the yamen who is easy to do.

After Song Chaoyang told the address of Qingsong Bay, he also told the number of bricks he needed.

Then the other party immediately gathered people and cars and started to help him get it.

In no time, two large trucks were filled.

"Isn't that too much?" Song Chaoyang looked at the two trucks of bricks and said with some suspicion.

This amount is at least half a car more than what I want.

The person in charge said with a smile:

"Oh, isn't it that the quality of some bricks is not very good? There will definitely be wear and tear by then, so I simply pulled some more."

"..." Song Chaoyang nodded, which was quite prepared.

As long as the other party has no objection, of course I have no objection either.

Next, Song Chaoyang got into the car directly and directed the driver towards the place where he and Qin Tie had agreed to meet.

After arriving at the destination, he happened to see Qin Tie standing beside the tractor waiting for him.

He was chatting with several people around him.

It looked like they were quite happily chatting.

Everyone looked like they were gossiping.

But there was no trace of the tractor driver around him.

Song Chaoyang got out of the car and said hello to Qin Tie.

After some questioning, I found out that the tractor driver had just met an acquaintance and was chatting not far away.

And Song Chaoyang also knew this acquaintance.

It was his cousin, Song Chaofeng, who worked at the county supply and marketing cooperative.
