Chapter 1206

Not a chance!

This private room faced the street, was spacious and bright, and the tables and chairs were wiped spotless.

Director Du pulled Manager Liu and said: "I say Old Liu, you couldn't bear to let us use the biggest one?"

Manager Liu smiled bitterly: "I say Old Du, we aren't outsiders. If it were empty, could I not let you use it?"

Director Du's eyes flickered: "Oh, who is inside?"

Manager Liu looked troubled: "Old Du, aren't you making things difficult for me? I can't say that."

Upon hearing this, Director Du patted Manager Liu on the shoulder: "You really have a tight mouth. Good thing, I won't ask anymore, okay?"

People who could eat in a private room at Tianxingju definitely couldn't be ordinary commoners.

After everyone took their seats, Director Du smiled and handed the menu to Cao Weiguo: "Chief Cao, you order the dishes."

Cao Weiguo didn't decline. After ordering two dishes, he returned the menu to Director Du: "Then I won't be polite. I've long heard of Tianxingju's fried liver. Let's have a serving of fried liver, and a serving of fried small yellow croaker. Leave the rest to everyone else."

Director Du ordered two dishes and then passed the menu down, with Manager Liu standing by taking notes with paper and pen.

"What would you like to drink?"

Director Du looked at Cao Weiguo: "Chief Cao, how about we drink some Fenjiu today?"

Cao Weiguo nodded: "Good!"

Director Du looked at Manager Liu: "First, bring five bottles of Fenjiu."

Zhao Meilan from the Propaganda Section laughed: "Director Du! There are five of us in total, including two female comrades. You ordered five bottles of wine at once, are you trying to drink us all under the table?"

Director Du laughed: "Don't worry, Comrade Meilan, female comrades can drink as much as they want. I'm afraid what's left won't be enough for us men."

Soon, dish after dish was served to the table by the waiter.

After eating the fried liver, Cao Weiguo couldn't stop praising it.

Tianxingju's fried liver used finely selected ingredients, was meticulously prepared, had a rich and delicious flavor, was fatty but not greasy, and had garlic that you could taste but not see. It was crystal clear and served in a small, exquisite Jingdezhen special bowl only two inches wide, looking like a treasure cup containing crystals, which was very tempting. In "Miscellaneous Poems on Yandu Snacks," there is a bamboo branch poem that vividly expresses the heartfelt praise of Kyoto people for fried liver: "Boiling fatty intestines in thick, rich juice, trading fairly and tasting by the piece. The proverb spreads about Zhu Bajie, the fragrance of fried liver passes through the market."

The group ate and drank. Although Zhao Meilan from the Propaganda Section was young, she was eloquent and witty, enlivening the atmosphere.

After a few cups of wine, Director Du started chatting with Cao Weiguo.

Inviting Cao Weiguo to dinner this time was not simply to strengthen comrade friendship.

The current movement was intensifying, and every few days someone was "invited" away by the Red Little Soldiers.

Although the Red Star Rolling Steel Factory hadn't stopped production, it was still causing panic.

Director Du and his group were more or less feeling guilty, which is why they had discussed seeking protection from Cao Weiguo.

The young people nowadays could be described as lawless. Whether you were a factory director or a team leader, whether you were a principal or a military commander, those young people dared to drag anyone out...

Because Cao Weiguo was young and had even sent steamed buns to the Red Little Soldiers, he had quite a reputation among the young people, and his words carried weight.

They all hoped that at a critical moment, Cao Weiguo could protect them and put in a good word for them.

Regarding this, Cao Weiguo didn't make any guarantees; a meal wasn't enough to carry that much weight.

Who knew if any of these people were truly of that faction!

If they really were, he would be the first to disagree!

Meals could be skipped, wine could be refused, but the stance must be firm, and the banner must be clear... ===== CHAPTER 1208 =====
