Chapter 1600
And the Yu Ruizhi and Yu Ruoqiu siblings also accompanied them throughout the day today and also did a lot of things that assistants should do. They were naturally also tired, and Su Xinghui once asked them to sit in the car and rest, but they refused to do so and accompanied them to the end.
This made Su Xinghui and Lu Xiaoya very moved, so they decided to invite them and Ji Wenfan's team to have a big meal this afternoon.
In Changshan County now, quite a few new restaurants have opened. Su Xinghui took them to a newly opened local-flavored restaurant in the county town. The Yu Ruizhi siblings and Ji Wenfan had eaten too many of those famous cuisines, and inviting them to eat Changshan-flavored dishes in Changshan County was just right.
Su Xinghui first ordered a Matou goat. This Matou goat was not big, just over twenty jin, but this weight was exactly when it was most tender. A part was used for braising to make a hot pot, the sheep offal was stir-fried, the most tender part of the meat was stir-fried with green onions, and the lamb chops were roasted. This was several dishes.
Then Su Xinghui ordered a chestnut-braised chicken. It would be the Mid-Autumn Festival in more than half a month, which was just the right season to eat chestnut-braised chicken. And the chestnut-braised chicken in Changshan County was different from other places. The chestnuts here used the best among chestnuts—oil chestnuts, and the chicken used the kind of local chicken that ran all over the mountains.
Oil chestnuts, green and shiny, rich in oil, sweet like beam syrup, are the best of chestnuts, and the local chickens in the mountains eat various insects and wild fruits in the mountains every day, and run around every day. Their muscles are full and strong, rich in chewiness.
Su Xinghui ordered a live chicken of three or four jin and braised a big pot with oil chestnuts. The chicken meat was golden yellow, sizzling with oil, making people have an appetite when they saw it.
In addition, Su Xinghui also ordered roasted fish, sweet potato starch balls, and other dishes unique to Changshan County. Until Ji Wenfan said there were too many dishes, he ordered a vegetable and stopped.
This sumptuous banquet made everyone very satisfied. Although the plating of the dishes here was not as exquisite as those in high-end restaurants, it was better in fresh, delicious, and environmentally friendly ingredients, and the portion was sufficient, which was just suitable for their situation today.
Today they ran in the mountains for a day, and the physical strength consumed was really too much, and they needed to replenish energy. Moreover, the Matou goat meat, chicken meat, and fish here were so delicious. Everyone ate heartily, and even a few girls ate with oil flowing from their mouths.
At this time, they couldn't care about their image either.
After eating, one of Ji Wenfan's female assistants stroked her belly and said contentedly, "It's really too delicious!"
Lu Xiaoya smiled and said, "If it's delicious, I'll invite you to eat next time."
The female assistant nodded repeatedly and said, "Okay, okay!"
Ji Wenfan said, "Unexpectedly, this Changshan County is really a good place, with good mountains, good water, good scenery, and good food!"
Su Xinghui smiled and said, "If Mr. Ji really feels that it is good here, then come to our place to travel often in the future, and you can also help us promote it."
Ji Wenfan said, "I can really help you promote this. Some of our customers who take wedding photos hope to come to such a place with good scenery to take photos. I am preparing to carry out this business, which is to go to famous scenic spots to take wedding photos. Maybe I will take your place as a main recommended location in the future."
Su Xinghui said, "Then I will thank you."
Ji Wenfan already knew that Su Xinghui was the deputy county magistrate of Changshan County, and tourism work was under his supervision, so it was only natural for him to say such things.
Ji Wenfan said, "How about this, County Magistrate Su, I feel that this set of wedding photos of you and Lu Xiaoya will definitely be very successful. If our photo studio displays this set of wedding photos of yours as samples in our shop window, there will definitely be many newlyweds willing to come to Changshan County to take photos."
Su Xinghui shook his head and said, "Mr. Ji, this won't work, we can't agree."
Ji Wenfan quickly said, "We can pay money, this set of wedding photos is free, and we can also pay extra money as your promotion fee."
Ji Wenfan knew that the Yu Ruizhi siblings and the Su Xinghui couple were not ordinary people. If he could build a relationship with them through this matter, what was the money for a set of wedding photos?
Su Xinghui said with a firm attitude, "Mr. Ji, this is not negotiable, sorry."
Yu Ruizhi said, "Mr. Ji, don't worry, as long as your wedding photos are taken well, I can double the money for you, but their wedding photos cannot be displayed in your shop window. This is not negotiable."
Just kidding, Su Xinghui's wedding photos naturally cannot be displayed in the shop window for passersby to comment on. If they are seen by people with intentions, maybe this matter will cause some trouble. Not to mention others, that Tian Xiaopeng is still in the capital.
Even if this kind of thing doesn't make a mistake, Su Xinghui, as a deputy county magistrate, must also pay attention to some influence in this matter. Doing so is always inappropriate.
As for the money for that set of wedding photos and any promotion fees, how could they be on their minds?
As soon as Ji Wenfan heard it, he knew he seemed to have said the wrong thing. He quickly nodded and said, "Alright, County Magistrate Su, I respect your meaning. When the time comes, I will put some pure landscape photos taken in Changshan in our shop window for display. Presumably, those newlyweds will also yearn for the scenery of Changshan."
Su Xinghui said, "This is possible, I have to thank Mr. Ji for helping us promote it. When can this set of wedding photos be produced, Mr. Ji?"
Ji Wenfan pondered slightly and said, "How about this, I will rush to Jiangcheng tomorrow and produce this set of wedding photos in a friend's photo studio. When the sample photos are washed out, I will bring them to Changshan for you to see. You choose some satisfactory ones and put them into this set of photo albums. The most satisfactory one will be produced as a large wedding photo. After you choose well, I will produce them for you at the fastest speed. The total time will take about a week."
Su Xinghui nodded with satisfaction, "Okay, then it will be hard for Mr. Ji."
Ji Wenfan said, "County Magistrate Su, don't be polite, this is what we should do."
The next day, Ji Wenfan went to Jiangcheng. He had to wash out the sample photos in a friend's photo studio. In this era, Changshan County didn't have any decent photo studios, only a state-run photo studio, and it was almost a blank in wedding photography, so his post-production could only be carried out in Jiangcheng.
This day was a Sunday. If it were normal times, Su Xinghui might take Lu Xiaoya out to play, but Lu Xiaoya was tired enough yesterday, so he stayed in the standing committee building with Lu Xiaoya for a day. He bought some vegetables and cooked two meals for Lu Xiaoya himself, letting Lu Xiaoya enjoy a day of happiness.
At noon this day, when Su Xinghui was cooking lunch in the kitchen, he saw Fang Qing go out from the corridor dressed up gorgeously from the window. He didn't care. It was normal for Fang Qing to dress up like this, and he continued to cook his meal.
After about ten minutes, Su Xinghui saw another familiar figure go out from the corridor. This person was Zhao Yangang. Zhao Yangang went out of the corridor door and looked around at the situation around him. When he looked at the window of Su Xinghui's house, Su Xinghui subconsciously hid back, not letting Zhao Yangang find that he saw him.
Zhao Yangang saw that there was no one around,
Only then did he walk outside the county party committee compound.
This was originally the most normal thing, but Su Xinghui inexplicably thought of Shi Ronghuai's sarcastic words that day, and his heart couldn't help but mutter.
