Chapter 544: Mao Ping treats me to crocodile

The number displayed on the mobile phone was very strange, so I pressed it without thinking.

Just as I pressed it off, the mobile phone rang relentlessly again, still this number, like a ghost that wouldn't leave. Fire rose in my heart, I pressed the answer button and roared angrily, "Who is it?"

A man laughed on the phone, his laughter actually had a creepy feeling, making my hair stand up involuntarily.

"Can't recognize my voice?" he asked in a strange tone on the phone.

"Sorry, please report your family name." I retorted angrily.

"Old Mao." He giggled, and after laughing, said with dissatisfaction, "Really don't remember me?"

I patted my head and said, "It's you, playing gods and ghosts, what instructions do you have?"

Mao Ping cleared his throat and said, "I heard you are treating, and I, brother, also want to disturb you for a cup."

I wanted to refuse, but thought about inviting him, "Old Mao, you are a dog's nose, how do you know I am treating?"

Mao Ping said mysteriously, "In the territory of Chunshan County, is there anything I, Old Mao, don't know?" He tapped something beside him confidently, making a dull sound.

"I won't drink your wine for nothing. It just so happens you brought people from the province, there is a good thing, let you taste it first." Mao Ping moved the microphone away and shouted at someone else: "Can you do it? If not, roll to the side."

I asked with a smile, "Old Mao, what surprise are you preparing for me again?"

Old Mao shouted at the microphone: "You come down, I am below."

After hanging up the phone, I told them that an old colleague of mine had come, a town mayor. I wanted to go down and pick him up.

Professor Luo said repeatedly, "Good, good, since the person coming is a town mayor, I happen to have a few questions to ask. Xiao Chen, you go quickly, we will wait for you."

I went downstairs and saw a pickup truck parked on the flat ground at the entrance of the restaurant, Mao Ping standing by the car, pointing and shouting.

I walked closer and patted him on the shoulder, giving him a fright. Turning to see it was me, he grinned.

"Chen Feng, today I'll let you taste something new." He pulled me into the pickup truck and pointed to the things covered by the plastic cloth: "It depends on whether you dare to eat it."

I laughed, "In this world, there is nothing I dare not eat."

Mao Ping sneered and said, "Don't brag."

Saying that, he lifted the plastic cloth and stepped back a few steps.

I leaned over to look and couldn't help but gasp.

A fierce crocodile was tied in the carriage. Although its lower jaw was tied, the fierce light in its small eyes still made my whole body feel hairy.

"Where did it come from?" I asked Mao Ping, pretending to be calm.

"Raised."

"Raised?" I looked at him suspiciously. Yesterday, the giant salamander I ate with County Magistrate Liu Qimeng was said to be raised in Mao Ping's town. Today, a crocodile appeared in his car, and he said it was raised. What new tricks he would come up with tomorrow, it was really hard to guess.

When I was a deputy county magistrate in Chunshan County, I hadn't heard that Mao Ping's town was engaged in any breeding, especially things like this, which the country had to record; it wasn't something you could raise just because you wanted to. When did Mao Ping come up with such a trick?

"It's really raised." Mao Ping pointed to the crocodile in the carriage: "This one, half a year."

"How many did you raise?" I became interested; it seemed Mao Ping wasn't fooling me.

"Not many, just over a hundred." Mao Ping handed me a cigarette: "Brother, now that you've gone to the province and are a big cadre, are you used to smoking this kind of cigarette?"

I looked at it and said, "Blue Furong, it's a high-grade cigarette. I can't afford to smoke it."

Mao Ping rolled his eyes and said, "I just said it, you're making fun of me. You provincial cadres smoke the Nine-Five Supreme. We country people, being able to smoke this, is already treating distinguished guests."

I didn't want to argue and smiled, "Old Mao, how do you know I am here?"

Mao Ping said seriously, "I knew it as soon as you came to Chunshan. I originally wanted to come see you yesterday, but I was held up by some small things at the breeding farm. Today is a good day, I am sending this guy for Secretary Liu to see, and by the way, I will visit you. I heard from the people at the Huihuang Hotel that you came here, so I followed."

I hesitated and said, "You are sending it for Secretary Liu to see, why did you drag it here?"

Mao Ping touched his scalp and said, "I remembered the date wrong. Secretary Liu went to the countryside today and won't be back until tonight. So I just dragged it to you, let's kill it and stew it for meat."

I was startled and waved my hands repeatedly, "Don't dare, don't dare. Firstly, this is a gift for Secretary Liu. He is not here, I dare not accept it. Secondly, this thing looks scary at first glance, I dare not eat it."

Mao Ping laughed heartily and said, "Chen Feng brother, why did you go to the province and your courage became like a mouse? What are you afraid of? Man is the spirit of all things, man's mouth is the most poisonous, in the world only man eats animals, rarely do animals dare to eat man."

I still refused him and said, "You drag it back. This thing I estimate is also expensive to death, I can't afford to eat it."

Mao Ping spat the cigarette butt he was biting into the ground and crushed it with his toe, saying, "Expensive or not, I have the final say. If I can't pass this level, his breeding farm will have a fart, I'll tell him to close the door."

I asked with a smile, "Whose breeding farm is it? Old Mao, don't mess around."

Mao Ping smiled obsequiously and said, "Who else? The foreign devil's."

I was surprised and asked, "Liu Misi's?"

Mao Ping raised his head and spat, "Apart from him, who else? I wanted to ask him to invest in building a resort villa like Suxi Town, this dog-day foreign devil refused to die. He invited a bunch of people to my Maoshi Town for a week, and just set up a breeding farm, raising giant salamanders, crocodiles, and snakes, etc., there was nothing that wasn't scary."

"How did you take other people's things casually?" I asked suspiciously.

"I take his things, it's giving him face. If he dares not listen, I'll stop the water and electricity immediately, I want him to eat and walk around." He laughed heartily and patted me on the shoulder: "Brother, you come to my Maoshi Town, whatever you want to eat, just open your mouth."

My heart was confused. Liu Misi is foreign capital, protected by policy and law. Back then, I spent so much effort to introduce him, just to change the economic structure of the mountain area. Liu Misi invested in Suxi Town, Chunshan County didn't want a penny of his land fee, and Suxi Town didn't want any money, he only gave a little pitiful green seedling fee, and he took Laoyingzui into his arms.

I was respecting him like a god, but I didn't expect that in Mao Ping's hands, Liu Misi was not as good as a fart.

In this day and age, there is really one thing that subdues another.

Thinking of this, a smile floated on the corner of my mouth.

Mao Ping captured my smile and waved his big hand, directing the restaurant's chef to come over and kill the crocodile.

I quickly stopped him, Mao Ping pulled me to the side and said: "Brother, this thing doesn't kill and eat, could it be dragged back? I agreed with Liu Misi, I want three crocodiles and three giant salamanders from him every year. He agreed, of course, I guarantee not to collect his rent within three years."

I was speechless. What kind of person Mao Ping is, I know very well in my heart.

The crocodile was dragged down from the car. This guy had great strength. Although it was tied, it still rolled a few times when it fell to the ground.

The restaurant's chef held a knife and didn't know where to start, trembling and walking around.

I couldn't stop him anymore. If I stopped him again, it would mean I wouldn't be a person. Mao Ping voluntarily dragged the crocodile to find me, naturally, it was sincere. If I deliberately refused, it would appear that I was not close to human feelings.

"This thing is too big, it's better to call a few more people over. Everyone hasn't seen each other for a long time, just drink a meal happily." Mao Ping said with great interest, took out his phone and wanted to call.

I asked him who he wanted to call. After all, there were a few people from the province upstairs. I didn't care, I had been rolling with them for ten years, I could say anything, I could let go of any fart. People were different, provincial cadres, even if they were easy-going, they had to pretend to be noble.

If they were unwilling to be with us, everyone would feel embarrassed.

"Call Old Deng." Mao Ping thought without thinking and said a person, then patted his head and said: "Or, call Secretary Liu of Suxi Town?"

"Liu Yuebai?" I asked suspiciously.

"Yes, yes!" Mao Ping echoed me repeatedly and said: "This woman is not simple, I like her."

I wanted to scold him in my heart, she is a secretary after all, you are a broken town mayor, what kind of tone is this? She is a woman who is not simple, can you like her?

Mao Ping didn't care about my thoughts at all, counted a few more people with his fingers.

I knew the people he called. Although I wasn't familiar with them, I had met them a few times.

Coming down with so many people, the scene would not only be lively, but also complicated.

I pulled him and said: "Old Mao, let's go upstairs first." ===== CHAPTER 545 =====
