Lao Tong's home.
Just as the name suggests.
It was opened by a man named Tong.
Hidden in an old neighborhood.
The shop is not big.
There are only about ten tables in total.
There are two tables outside.
There are six in the hall.
There are also several private rooms.
Eight o'clock in the evening.
It's a busy time.
Tables outside and in the lobby.
The seats are already full of guests.
Most of them are in their thirties or forties.
The look of an office worker.
Loud noise.
It demonstrates the booming business of Lao Tong's family and the delicious food.
Lu Xun brought everyone to the private room.
"Whatever you want to eat, take a look!"
Lu Xun picked up the menu book on the table and gave one to Hu Yibao and Chen Yuan respectively.
Braised pork: 48
Shredded pork with green pepper: 29
Boiled pork slices: 66
Hu Yibao looked at the menu in his hand.
The price is a bit on the high side.
But in Shanghai, where every inch of land is valuable.
It's still acceptable.
"I want braised pork!"
Hu Yibao closed the menu, handed it to Lu Xun and said.
"One serving of braised pork!" Wang Le wrote down the braised pork on the order form.
"Why only order one dish? Give me a few more!" Lu Xun pushed it back and said dissatisfiedly.
"It's not easy for us to get together. We don't know when the next time will be."
"Marshal Hu, are you worried that I don't have enough money in my wallet?"
That's what has been said.
"Okay!"
What else could Hu Yibao do? He could only open the menu again.
"A portion of braised beef with soy sauce."
"A portion of stir-fried vegetables."
"One serving of tomato and egg soup."
Ordered three more dishes.
After Wang Le took note of it, he turned to look at Chen Yuan, who had been silent, and asked.
"Chen Yuan, what do you want to eat?"
Chen Yuan was staring at the menu, motionless.
"Chen Yuan!"
Wang Le patted Chen Yuan's shoulder fiercely.
Chen Yuan was startled and immediately came to his senses, looking at Wang Le in confusion.
"What's wrong!"
"I asked you what you want to eat?" Wang Le said.
"I think you're a little absent-minded."
Lu Xun nodded and said, "Yes! Chen Yuan, I also feel that there is something wrong with you."
"After sitting down, I just stared at the menu in a daze."
"Hahaha."
Chen Yuan just laughed it off and brushed it off.
"I'm thinking about something at work."
Hu Yibao glanced at Chen Yuan.
From the moment I saw him.
I just felt something was wrong!
He used to be very cheerful.
When I meet someone, I greet them with a smile.
His eloquence is also quite good.
But today.
No matter how you look at it, he seems to be forcing a smile.
But Chen Yuan doesn't say it now.
Hu Yibao didn't want to make any random guesses.
Of course.
It's not just Hu Yibao.
Wang Le and Lu Xun, who are also brothers, also noticed something strange about Chen Yuan.
The two of them looked at each other.
His brows furrowed slightly.
A little worried.
"Chen Yuan, order some dishes!"
Hu Yibao suddenly said with a smile, "Let's kill Lu Xun, the rich man in Magic City!"
Wang Le said quickly, "Hahaha, right, right, hurry up and order a few. Let him treat us. It's not easy."
Lu Xun pretended to be helpless and said, "Alas, the sons are going to cut flesh from their father again."
The atmosphere became a little more lively.
There was also a smile on Chen Yuan's face.
"Then I won't be polite!"
Browse the menu.
"One serving of pickled fish!"
"One serving of Four Joy Meatballs."
Chen Yuan revealed the names of two dishes.
Wang Le smiled and wrote it down.
"It's still the same!"
"When you brought Wang Lu with you before, you always ordered these two dishes."
"These are all her favorite foods."
After saying that, Wang Le turned around and handed the order sheet in his hand to the proprietress behind him.
"Madam boss, that's all for now, please hurry up."
The proprietress took the order sheet, glanced at the dishes on it, and then asked.
"Would you like anything to drink?"
Wang Le turned around, looked at everyone, and asked, "White wine or beer?"
"I'm fine with either!" Hu Yibao was the first to express his opinion.
Lu Xun's eyes fell on Chen Yuan, "You decide whether we brothers should drink white wine or beer."
Chen Yuan smiled and said, "Then let's drink beer!"
Wang Le immediately said to the proprietress, "One case of beer. If it's not enough, ask for more."
"Okay!" The proprietress took the order paper and left immediately.
Ten minutes later.
The first course and a case of beer have also been delivered.
One bottle per person.
Lu Xun said loudly.
"Come, let's have a drink for the brothers' gathering today."
The dishes came out one by one.
Beer was also finished bottle by bottle.
The four of them are just like in college.
Start talking about everything under the sun.
Past, future, heaven and earth.
Pure in one mouth.
Lu Xun: "Failure is the mother of success. I will definitely be able to make a blockbuster movie in the future! The kind that will make billions of dollars at the box office and go global."
"When that time comes, brothers, follow me and I will arrange for young models."
Wang Le: "I feel like there must be aliens in this world."
"Mars migration must be arranged in the future. By the way, I heard that foreign scientists have discovered a habitable planet that is many times larger than our planet. When the sun explodes, we will definitely be able to go there."
Chen Yuan: "I just want to make money, make money, make money! Make more money! I want to be the boss!"
Atmosphere is important.
Hu Yibao has also already integrated into it a long time ago.
"When I become a great god, I will write you all into my book. I must be the protagonist. Lu Xun, you will be the boss of a film and television company. Wang Le, you must be a future technology boss. Chen Yuan, you will be a nouveau riche boss."
A case of beer.
Half of the food has been eaten.
"La la la!!"
Chen Yuan suddenly received a call.
He just glanced down and his expression changed instantly.
"What's wrong?" Hu Yibao looked at Chen Yuan and asked.
Chen Yuan quickly stood up and said, "It's work. I'm going to go out and answer a phone call."
After saying this, he left the private room.
soon.
Chen Yuan's voice was faintly heard from outside.
It makes it difficult to hear.
Hu Yibao thought about it.
I still didn't use my primary auditory perception to eavesdrop on Chen Yuan.
Everyone has their own private secrets.
You can't eavesdrop just because you have special abilities.
not to mention.
Hu Yibao really means it in his heart.
Treat Chen Yuan as his brother.
Whether he says it or not, his advice should be followed.
Wang Le and Lu Xun also looked at Hu Yibao with concern.
Wang Le: "Could something have happened to Chen Yuan?"
Lu Xun: "From the beginning, I felt that something was wrong with him. He was a man who always regarded money as dirt, but now he wanted to make money and become a big boss."
Hu Yibao nodded. "Something must have happened. I hope it's just work-related."
Just at this moment.
Chen Yuan's voice came from outside.
"Boss, give me two bottles of Niulanshan!"
