Chapter 329 Intentionally Inquiring



Xu Xiangyang watched him leave and then sat for a while.

He cooperated with Mr. Jiang just to squeeze out those few salesmen who appeared out of nowhere.

But there is another reason. If he wants to gain a foothold in Xincheng, he cannot avoid dealing with people like Mr. Jiang.

A strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake, and if they also learn to deal with people in such a disgusting way as me, I'm afraid I will be in a lot of trouble.

Now that he has cleared up some troublesome matters, what he needs to do next is to win over some people.

Otherwise, if you have no foundation, you will be killed sooner or later.

He wouldn't be harmed, but he would be sad if he lost something.

Thinking of this, Xu Xiangyang called Qian Wenqing in. "How's the thing I asked you to do a few days ago?"

"It's already been done." Qian Wenqing immediately took out a piece of paper and handed it to him, saying, "These are the places he often goes to."

Xu Xiangyang didn't say anything. He took the paper, glanced at it, and said, "I'll come over tomorrow and we can talk about it later if there's anything going on here."

He has important things to do now.

Qian Wenqing naturally wouldn't meddle in other people's business and just walked the person to the gate before going back.

Xu Xiangyang left here and looked at the time. It was already past three in the afternoon.

He came to a state-owned restaurant and walked straight in.

I haven't eaten yet, so it would be nice to have dinner now.

"Hello, comrade. Give me one plate of braised pork, one plate of braised beef in soy sauce, and half a pound of braised pork." He ordered the dishes and paid the bill promptly.

I found a random place to sit down. It wasn't dinner time yet, so people would probably come after around four o'clock.

Xu Xiangyang sat in a chair, staring out the window in a daze.

It's just the beginning of autumn, but the weather is very dry because there wasn't much rain in spring and summer.

"Hello comrade, the food is ready." A voice came from the window.

Xu Xiangyang came back to his senses. He had been in a daze for half an hour while cooking.

He didn't rush to drink the wine. He took two bites of food slowly and then looked at the time.

It's four o'clock.

He looked out the window and saw that the streets were starting to get crowded, as some units or factories had already finished get off work.

At half past four, Xu Xiangyang finally saw someone coming in.

He took a sip of white wine, then said in surprise: "Captain Sun?"

Sun Youxin was stunned for a moment when he heard the name, then turned to look at the person opposite him.

As soon as he saw Xu Xiangyang, there was some surprise in his eyes, and then he walked over with a smile.

"Secretary Xu, are you having dinner here?" He greeted her and looked at the food and wine on the table.

Wow, both of the side dishes are meat dishes. It’s such a luxury to drink alone.

Xu Xiangyang smiled and nodded. "It's rare that I have some free time, so I want to relax. Are you alone? How about we have a drink together?"

He invited warmly and went to get a clean cup.

Now Zisun Youxin couldn't refuse, so he sat down.

He asked, "Secretary Xu, after the last time, Xu Pu hasn't bothered you again, right?"

Xu Xiangyang poured him two taels of wine, and then said: "No, I never saw him again."

Generally speaking, Xu Pu has already lost his job, and he will never be able to join such an organization in the future.

If you dare to come here and cause trouble again, it would be no different from seeking death.

Sun Youxin nodded in relief. "That's good. I heard that a garment factory has been built on the outskirts of our city. When will it officially start operations? Does Secretary Xu know about it?"

Hearing this, Xu Xiangyang looked at him and smiled, "Work will resume after the New Year. Speaking of which, I'm going to be transferred to be the factory director."

Although I don't know where this person got the information from, as long as he found out, it must have been intentional.

A hint of understanding flashed in Sun Youxin's eyes, and then he picked up the glass and took a sip of white wine.

Xu Xiangyang looked at the dishes on the table. He didn't eat much himself, so he asked, "Captain Sun, what else do you want to eat? I'll go order two more dishes. I haven't eaten at this restaurant before, so I don't know what's delicious."

When Sun Youxin heard that he wanted to order more dishes, he quickly pulled him back and said, "No need, this is enough."

What can two people eat when drinking? It's not like eating a meal, where you can eat two more dishes.

Xu Xiangyang didn't listen to him and turned to go to the window.

"Hello comrade, do you have any special dishes here? I want to treat my friends to a meal." He looked directly at Sun Youxin.

The waiter at the window saw Sun Youxin and said with a smile, "So you and Captain Sun are friends. He likes our braised beef, which happens to be available today and not at other times."

Xu Xiangyang smiled and thought to himself, I came here only because I knew you needed supplies today, otherwise why would I be in such a hurry?

"Give me a serving of braised beef." He paid readily and then took back a pound of white wine.

Seeing him like this, Sun Youxin said, "Secretary Xu, what are you doing? I just want to eat something."

Having said that, he also felt greedy when he saw the wine.

Xu Xiangyang put the wine on the table and said, "Captain Sun, if you come out for a drink, don't you have to eat some good food? I heard from the comrades at the window that you like braised beef. They just happen to have it available today, so I brought you one portion."

In fact, before he even said anything, Sun Youxin had probably guessed that he had ordered his favorite dishes.

I was so happy to order a meat dish for 2.5 yuan, which also came with a pound of meat coupons.

I have to say, Xu Xiangyang is really generous.

"Secretary Xu, you're spending too much money. How about this, I'll pay for half of the meal." As he said this, he was about to take out the money.

Xu Xiangyang held his hand and said, "Captain Sun, you are being too polite. We have dealt with each other before, so having a meal is nothing."

If I let him take the money today, how will he have a chance to talk in the future?

Having said this, Sun Youxin did not insist. He glanced at the person opposite him.

I thought: It’s still unclear whether today’s event is a coincidence or not!

However, he didn't think Xu Xiangyang could use him for anything. Besides, if he wanted to do something for him, he was afraid that any of Xu Xiangyang's former colleagues could help.

As for going to so much trouble to find me, I'm afraid it's unnecessary.

Xu Xiangyang drank a pound of white wine with him, and then the two of them ate all the food.

Waste is shameful. People nowadays can’t even get enough to eat, so who would dare to waste food?

After having a good meal and a drink, the two walked out of the state-owned restaurant.

It was already past six in the evening and the sun was setting.

Xu Xiangyang looked at the person next to him and said, "Captain Sun, please drink some more when you have the chance. I don't think you can drink that much."

Mainly because it was their first time drinking, neither of them drank much.

Especially Xu Xiangyang, his expression never changed even when he drank.

Sun Youxin nodded and said, "Okay, Secretary Xu, you can come and play with me when you have nothing to do in the future."

The two men exchanged a few polite words and then parted ways at the entrance of the state-owned hotel.

We are all grown men, so don’t talk about who is giving gifts to whom.

If it was a lesbian, Xu Xiangyang would definitely send her home.

But as a grown man, just forget it and go home to sleep.
