Chapter 496: Section Chief? You Are Not Even Qualified to Sit at the Main Table when You Eat at My House!

In Guangzhou in 1996, there was one attraction that had to be mentioned, and that was the World View.

World Grand View is located in Tianhe District, Guangzhou. It opened in October 1995. It brings together architectural sculptures from more than 100 countries in the world, basically restored to a 1:1 ratio. It houses Times Square, Paris Opera House, Ancient Greek Theater, There are six theaters including Arabian Theatre, British Theater and Japanese Theater and four entertainment areas including aircraft and ship performances, comprehensive amusement park, water sports ground and American entertainment.

No garden in Guangzhou can rival its scale and momentum.

Especially this year, the World Grand View has entered its heyday, with ticket revenue reaching 20 to 30 million yuan a month, and the average monthly passenger flow exceeding 100,000. It is one of the most influential attractions in Guangzhou in this era.

Deng Yunheng took special leave today and asked Feng Yingying to come to the World Grand Tour.

Well, not with the light bulb of old classmates, but a real date between two people.

It was early nine o'clock in the morning when the two arrived at the World View.

Today's date was set by the two last night, so both Deng Yunheng and Feng Yingying took the time to dress themselves up.

Deng Yunheng has medium-length hair and wears a classic T-shirt and jeans. He looks relatively sunny.

Feng Yingying had a high bun and paired it with a floral shirt and a knee-length skirt. She looked young, beautiful and full of energy.

Deng Yunheng asked: "Xuemei Feng, which attraction do you want to see first?"

Feng Yingying said: "I visited with my parents during the Spring Festival. I went to Times Square and the Paris Opera House, and then ate at the restaurant here. As for other attractions, I haven't seen them yet."

Deng Yunheng understood what was said and suggested: "How about we go see the ancient Greek theater, the Arabic theater, and the British theater today?"

Feng Yingying smiled and said: "Okay, I think the Paris Opera House is quite good. I recommend you to go and see it."

"The world landscapes that can be selected by the World Grand View are definitely not bad. If you can't finish them today, let's just watch them next time."

Speaking of this, Deng Yunheng asked: "I wonder how the restaurant here tastes? If the taste is good, we will eat here at noon. If not, then we will eat elsewhere."

Feng Yingying said: "The taste is not bad, but it's a little expensive."

Deng Yunheng smiled and said, "That's no problem. Let's have a meal here at noon, and then I'll take you to my second sister's hot pot restaurant to eat delicious food in the evening."

Feng Yingying looked at him and said hesitantly: "Want to eat at your second sister's hotpot restaurant tonight?"

Deng Yunheng said: "My second sister met you at the Internet cafe that day and has always wanted to see you again."

Feng Yingying understood his plan when she heard this. The last time she went to the Internet cafe, she accidentally ran into his second sister. In addition, her cousin was there at the time, so he did not confess to her through her cousin. Naturally, she was not guilty, but If he agrees to go to his second sister's hotpot restaurant for dinner tonight and formally meet his second sister, the meaning will be different.

Therefore, when she heard what he said, Feng Yingying was a little hesitant about whether to agree or not.

Seeing this, Deng Yunheng added: "Xuemei Feng, don't have any worries. She is just my second sister, not my mother. She just happened to meet her that night, so I wanted to treat you to a meal to get to know her."

Feng Yingying thought about it and it made sense. If she was meeting her parents, it meant that she had already agreed to him, so she was indeed not mentally prepared for this. However, if she was just meeting her brother and sister, she didn't have to worry too much.

Thinking of this, Feng Yingying nodded and said: "Okay, let's meet. I can ask your second sister how to do business."

Deng Yunheng smiled and said: "If my second sister heard you say that, I don't know how happy she would be!"

Feng Yingying blinked: "How do you say this?"

Deng Yunheng said: "Because my second sister's academic performance was not good at that time, she dropped out of school immediately after graduating from elementary school. After a few years, she went back to school after my father persuaded her, and she reluctantly went back to school. Finished high school.

And you are a serious college student, and your parents are also elites in the business world. Of course she will be happy if you ask her for advice on how to do business. "

Hearing this, Feng Yingying felt a little surprised and said: "Senior Deng, your second sister's academic performance is not good, but she can get her business to this point. Doesn't that further prove that she has business talent?"

"My second sister's hot pot restaurant was actually laid by my father as the foundation. Later, with the help of her classmates and my second brother-in-law, it developed to what it is today."

At this point, Deng Yunheng changed the subject and said with a smile: "Of course, then again, after so many years of training, my second sister's current vision and ability are definitely not comparable to those of ordinary people. If you want to start a business, , maybe she can really give you some good advice."

Feng Yingying asked: "Senior Deng, your family background is so good, your second brother-in-law's family background should not be simple, right?"

Deng Yunheng said: "My second brother-in-law's family background is relatively good, his father is a department-level cadre, but he has retired. Their family all eats from the government, but their ranks are not high.

My second brother-in-law’s own conditions are pretty good. He graduated from Nankai University. When he met my second sister, he was working in Guangzhou Customs. He was a full-time official and was considered young and promising for his peers. "

Feng Yingying suddenly realized: "Your second brother-in-law is a key university student, and his family is not bad. No wonder your second sister likes him. From what you said, your second brother-in-law is no longer in the company, but resigned to help your second sister run the business?"

Deng Yunheng nodded and said: "Although working in the company has a high status, my second brother-in-law has no background and it is difficult to get promoted in the company. In addition, he has to go to work on time every day and has little freedom. How can it compare to being his own boss? My second sister persuaded him to quit his job and come back to help run the business, and he agreed."

Feng Yingying agreed: "That's right. In the past few years, when Deng Gong went to the south, I don't know how many people in the system chose to go into business, including department-level If a cadre does not have much development prospects in the system, it is indeed a wise move to come back and help manage the business. "

Deng Yunheng asked: "Xiaomei Feng, I heard from your cousin that your brother is also working hard in the system?"

Feng Yingying replied: "Yes, he is now a deputy captain of the Criminal Investigation Detachment."

Deng Yunheng asked curiously: "What level is this?"

Feng Yingying said: "Like your second brother-in-law before, both are regular section-level."

Deng Yunheng said "Oh", leaving aside the identity of his eldest brother-in-law, a regular section-level cadre is naturally not worthy of his attention. After all, his second brother is already a regular hall, and his third brother is also a regular director. A regular section-level cadre, to put it exaggeratedly, is not qualified to sit at the main table when eating in their house.

The two chatted while walking towards the Ancient Greek Theater.

Next, the two happily went to the Ancient Greek Theater and the Arab Theater to play. They played more carefully, not the kind of play that was a cursory visit, so after watching these two theaters, it was already noon.

According to the original plan, lunch was solved in the restaurant inside.

After lunch and resting for half an hour, the two continued to visit the British Theater.

Each country has its own architectural skills. These major theaters are considered one of the iconic buildings in the United Kingdom and other countries. When Deng Yunheng and his partner were playing, they looked at these buildings with completely different styles and couldn't help but feel emotional.

It was already 3:30 pm when they visited the British Theater.

After such a long time of playing, Deng Yunheng and his partner were also a little tired.

So, the two of them rested for more than ten minutes, left the World Grand View, and then took a car to the spicy girl hot pot.

As a chain hot pot, this spicy girl hot pot naturally has more than one branch in a heavyweight city like Guangzhou, but has a full six branches. Deng Yunheng and his partner only went to one of the branches.

When the two arrived at the hot pot restaurant, it was almost five o'clock in the afternoon.

This spicy girl hot pot branch has an area of ​​about 300 square meters, is very elegantly decorated, and the environment looks very comfortable.

It was meal time, and customers were walking into the hot pot restaurant in groups. Deng Yunheng and his companions took a quick look and found that nearly half of the tables and chairs in the hot pot restaurant were occupied by customers. Some of them were ordering food, some were waiting for the waiter to serve the soup base and side dishes, and some had already eaten.

The whole scene looked very lively, and with the continuous flow of customers, it can be seen how popular this hot pot restaurant is.

Seeing this, Feng Yingying exclaimed: "Senior Deng, your second sister's hot pot restaurant is doing really well."

Deng Yunheng smiled and said: "Business is good."

While the two were talking, the waiter of the hot pot restaurant had already seen them. One of the waitresses came up quickly and said respectfully: "Young Master Heng, you are here. The boss is waiting for you in the private room. Please follow me and I will take you there."

Deng Yunheng nodded and said: "Yes, thank you for your trouble!"

Although she knew that she was about to meet Deng Yunheng's sister, not his parents, and the two had met once before, Feng Yingying was still a little nervous. When she followed the waiter to the private room, her palms were sweating.

Deng Yunheng seemed to feel her nervousness and whispered to comfort her: "Don't be nervous. My second sister is easy to talk to. Just think of it as a meal between friends. Don't think too much."

Feng Yingying hummed, then took a few deep breaths, and then followed the waiter and Deng Yunheng into the private room.

In the private room, Deng Yunzhu sat there alone, drinking tea and reading martial arts novels.

"Second sister."

Deng Yunheng immediately greeted her.

Deng Yunzhu put down the novel, stood up and looked at Feng Yingying with a smile on her face, and said enthusiastically: "Yingying, we meet again!"

Feng Yingying greeted her obediently: "Second sister."

"Come and sit down."

While greeting her future sister-in-law, Deng Yunzhu instructed the waiter: "Tell the kitchen to prepare the dishes."

"Okay, boss."

The waitress responded and left the box.

Deng Yunzhu asked Feng Yingying to sit down, then poured her a cup of tea and said, "This is tea made from Grandpa's eye vine. Do you think you can get used to it?"

Feng Yingying smiled and said, "Yes, I can get used to it. This Grandpa's eye vine tea tastes sweet. My dad often makes it."

Deng Yunzhu said, "That's good. Did you have fun at the Grand World today?"

Feng Yingying nodded and said, "Not bad. I heard that those attractions are restored in 1:1. It's like appreciating iconic buildings from various countries without going abroad. It feels very interesting. Although the tickets are expensive, the passenger flow is still very high. After entering, it feels like there are people everywhere."

Deng Yunzhu said: "Then I'll go and have fun some other day. I haven't been to this World Grand View even once since it opened!"

Feng Yingying said: "That is indeed worth playing."

Deng Yunheng couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief when he saw his second sister chatting with Feng Yingying for a few words. Then he sat there quietly drinking tea and listening to the two of them chatting.

Soon, the mandarin duck soup pot and various side dishes were served.

This is what the boss wants to eat, so the speed is naturally beyond what the customers can match.

Hot pot is one of the most popular delicacies in the country.

Seeing the fragrant bottom of the pot and the variety of fresh side dishes, your appetite will come up instantly.

Next, the three of them chatted while eating.

After Feng Yingying praised the taste of the hot pot, she thought of the novel that her second sister was reading when she just came in, so she took the initiative to find a topic and said: "Second sister, do you like to read martial arts novels?"

Deng Yunzhu smiled and nodded: "Yes, I like it very much. When I have nothing to do, I read martial arts novels to pass the time."

Feng Yingying smiled and said: "I also like reading martial arts novels. Second sister, which master's work do you like to read?"

Deng Yunzhu didn't expect that the other party also liked reading martial arts novels, so she couldn't help but become interested and said: "I like to read the works of the two masters Jin Yong and Wu Ji. What I just read was "Legend of China" by Master Wu Ji. I thought it was quite interesting. "

Fans of later generations of novels are naturally very familiar with Master Jin Yong, but probably not many people know Master Wuji.

But in the 1990s, it was no exaggeration to compare Master Wuji with Master Jin Yong.

Especially in the Guangdong area, Jin Yong and Wuji are almost equated. They are known as the "Jin Yong of Mainland China" and have a huge reputation in the mainland. Fans of novels born in the 70s, 80s and 90s, even if they have never read Master Wuji The legendary series of novels, and I definitely know who he is, otherwise I wouldn’t be called a novel fan.

This old man who only started writing novels in his early sixties has really created quite a miracle. His works are so popular that in this era, as long as any magazine publishes his works, the sales will continue to rise. This triggered the "Wuji phenomenon".

Even if the work has been published in a magazine, re-publication can still sell well, making those publishers make a lot of money.

Because the names of Master Wuji's works all have four characters, and the two characters "legend" behind them have always remained unchanged, such as "Legend of Martial Arts", "Legend of Jianghu", "Legend of Shenzhou", "Legend of Qixia", " "Legend of Black Hawk", "Legend of Black Panther", "Legend of Hidden Man", "Legend of Goddess" and so on.

In the 1990s, when Wu Lao's popularity was at its peak, those unscrupulous booksellers directly used the title of the book to be "Legend of XX" in order to make money, and the author's name was Wu Ji's name.

In this way, even if the content is a piece of shit, it can still sell well.

From here, we can see how popular Master Wuji's works are.

Even on the radio, Master Jin Yong's "Legend of the Condor Heroes" is the most popular, and the only one that can rival it is Master Wuji's debut "Legend of Martial Arts". It can be seen that in terms of popularity, it is known as "Jin Yong of Mainland China" ” is really not false at all.

Of course, in terms of the depth of his works, in terms of world popularity, and in terms of the influence of his works, Master Jin Yong is more impressive. This is undeniable.

Feng Yingying said in surprise: "That's a coincidence. I also like the works of the two masters Jin Yong and Wu Ji, and what's even more coincidental is that this "Legend of Shenzhou" is my enlightenment novel (this is also the author's enlightenment). Novel, I don’t know which one is your relative’s enlightenment novel? ), I became obsessed with martial arts novels because of reading "Legend of China"."

Deng Yunzhu was a little surprised when he heard this and said: "That is indeed a coincidence..."

Next, the two novel fans who share the same hobby started chatting while eating, and even Deng Yunheng couldn't get a word in.

Here, it also proves the importance of having common interests. Deng Yunheng has secretly made up his mind to take time to read all the works of the two masters Jin Yong and Wu Ji, so that next time when he talks about novels with Feng Yingying, Don’t worry about not being able to answer the call.

This meal took the three of them more than two hours to finish.

The main reason is that Deng Yunzhu and Feng Yingying had a good chat. Not only do they have a common interest in martial arts novels, but they also have similar aesthetic values ​​in clothing.

In short, the two of them had a great time chatting for more than two hours.

At the end of the meal, Deng Yunzhu took Feng Yingying's hand and said with a smile: "Yingying, you and I really hit it off. I hope we have the opportunity to become a real family."

Feng Yingying smiled but didn't answer. Although she and her second sister really liked each other, she didn't dare to accept it now. She had to get along with her for a while.

Deng Yunheng answered: "Second sister, let's go first!"

Deng Yunzhu asked: "It's still early now. I'm going to go to the Internet cafe. Do you want to go to the Internet cafe to surf the Internet? I'll have someone take you back later."

Deng Yunheng looked at Feng Yingying and asked, "Yingying, what do you think?"

Feng Yingying said: "Okay, then go to the Internet cafe to surf the Internet and then go back."

So, the three of them took Deng Yunzhu's special car to the Zhujiang Internet Cafe.

After surfing the Internet for two hours at the Internet cafe, it was almost ten o'clock when Deng Yunheng took his second sister's special car and sent Feng Yingying home.

Deng Yunheng felt that the results of this date were very significant. He could feel that Feng Yingying's attitude towards him was a little closer than before.

Although it was still early to confirm the relationship, as long as the other party agreed to go out with him a few more times, he believed that sooner or later he would be able to pursue the other party.
