This creature has delicious meat, especially the frogs caught in early spring, which are a very famous local delicacy.
"This is stewed fine-scaled fish, one of the famous cold-water fish in our area, with tender and delicious meat."
This is the season for eating fish caught at the start of the spring. A trip to Northeast China without trying fine-scaled fish would be a wasted trip.
"This is a flying dragon. People say that dragon meat is good in the sky and donkey meat is good on the ground. This is what they are talking about."
This ingredient is best used in soups; it's incredibly flavorful and requires almost no seasoning. Give it a try!
Songlin Hotel is a place used by the Forestry Bureau to receive distinguished guests, so it naturally has a variety of local specialty ingredients.
Zhou Mingyuan made a special phone call to give instructions, so all the people in charge here are top-notch.
Next, dishes like bear paws, deer tendons, monkey heads, and matsutake mushrooms were served one after another, leaving Hou Yashuang and the others completely dumbfounded.
Even if they were completely ignorant, they would know that these were top-quality delicacies, and this whole table of food must have cost a fortune.
With this in mind, Peng Dingcheng's expression naturally became somewhat restrained. He had long lost his previous arrogance and sat there blankly.
"I think you all know that this timber is a Class II material, which is allocated by the state."
Originally, neither the furniture factory nor the timber company were our bureau's partners, so we couldn't cooperate in the usual way and could only use off-plan quotas.
Our bureau's off-plan quotas are limited, and they are all sold to large, well-established companies and enterprises. We rarely cooperate with unfamiliar factories.
While the staff served the dishes, Zhao Guangning chatted with Hou Yashuang and the others.
"The first two times, it was Xiping who found me."
To be honest, Xiping's father-in-law is our bureau chief, and Xiping and I have been friends for many years.
I trusted him, which is why I agreed to squeeze some money out of other people's orders for you.
Sheng Xiping never mentioned his relationship with the forestry bureau leaders to Hou Yashuang and his son.
So when Zhao Guangning mentioned it, Peng Dingcheng, Hou Yashuang and the others were all shocked, especially Peng Dingcheng, whose jaw dropped.
Just thinking about how he acted arrogantly and domineering in front of Sheng Xiping when they first met that afternoon made him break out in a cold sweat.
Offending the bureau chief's son-in-law is tantamount to offending the entire Songjianghe Forestry Bureau. How can he buy timber then?
No, no, in Northeast China, where personal relationships matter so much, offending one forestry bureau could very well mean offending the entire forestry system of an entire province.
Thinking of this, Peng Dingcheng could no longer sit still.
"Comrade Sheng, I'm so sorry. I said something unpleasant to you at the hotel this afternoon. Please don't take it to heart. You're a magnanimous person."
At this point, Peng Dingcheng stopped mentioning that he was the top leader and stopped talking about the principle of fairness and equality.
Even if the bureau chief's son-in-law were just an ordinary worker, he wouldn't dare offend him.
Looking at Peng Dingcheng's arrogant yet obsequious manner, Sheng Xiping couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.
Why bother? Why not be polite and reasonable from the start? It's pointless to regret it at the last minute.
"Guests are always welcome. We Northeasterners are the most hospitable people. Why would we argue with our guests?"
"President Peng, please sit down. Since I invited you here, it's because I didn't keep what happened this afternoon to myself." Sheng Xiping nodded slightly to Peng Dingcheng, gesturing for him to sit down.
Peng Dingcheng sat down as Sheng Xiping suggested. Just then, the staff brought out all the dishes and came over to ask what kind of wine he wanted to drink.
"Boss, what kind of liquor should we serve? We have Dehui Daqu, Yushu Daqu, Changchun Daqu, Taoerhe, Taonanxiang, Longquanjiu, and the newly released Changchun Snow Mountain Beer."
