Fan Demin smiled and waved his hand: "Let's help each other, even if you don't talk about friendship and business, you are also an enterprise in this province, as the person in charge of the Light Chemical Department, I still have to pull it when I should pull it, after all, you are also contributing to the economic development of this province." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang nodded slightly: "It makes sense to say so, I am here to express my attitude to Director Fan, I and my master will work hard to make Asia Machinery Factory bigger and stronger, and make our due contribution to the economic development of this province in the future." ”

After the greetings, Niu Xiaoqiang estimated that the time was almost up, so he took Fan Demin towards the dormitory area.

In order to avoid being talked about by others, Niu Xiaoqiang found a hat in the factory for Fan Demin to wear. It was lunch time, and there weren't many people wandering outside, so Fan Demin's whereabouts were not discovered by others.

Yu Simei had already arrived in advance, and she went to the vegetable market to buy some ingredients.

Niu Xiaoqiang took Fan Demin into the house, the two sat on the sofa and continued to chat, while Yu Simei was busy in the kitchen.

Yu Simei's speed was very fast, and in less than half an hour, she made four dishes and one soup. Among them, there are not only braised rabbit meat, but also Qingjiang steamed fish, which can be described as a very authentic local dish.

As soon as Niu Xiaoqiang saw that the meal was arranged, he immediately beckoned Fan Demin to take a seat. Yu Simei handed the purchased Yanghe Daqu to Niu Xiaoqiang, the retail price of this wine is about three yuan, which is very high-end in the eyes of ordinary people, but it is ordinary in the eyes of people with status.

Niu Xiaoqiang opened the bottle cap and apologized while pouring wine: "Uncle Fan, due to the urgency of time, I can only entertain you with Yanghe Daqu, I hope you don't mind, next time you come to Aoshan, I will definitely prepare Moutai." ”

Fan Demin smiled and waved his hand: "If you say that, you will see the outside, as long as it is wine, I don't pay so much attention to it." ”

After pouring the wine, the two raised their glasses and touched each other, and each took a small sip.

Fan Demin saw Yu Simei walk into the bedroom, and didn't seem to have any intention of eating at the same table, so he couldn't help but ask, "Xiaoqiang, why doesn't she eat with us?"

Niu Xiaoqiang explained with a wry smile: "The rule here is that once a guest comes, women and children can't be served, I think this rule is very bad, if Uncle Fan doesn't mind, I want to call Sister Yu out to eat together." ”

Fan Demin hurriedly nodded: "That's for sure, the food cooked by people can't be served when it's time to eat, this rule is inevitably too much, you hurry up and call it out, otherwise there are so many dishes, the two of us can't finish it." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang agreed, turned his head and greeted the bedroom: "Sister Yu, come out and eat with us, and by the way, help me entertain Director Fan." ”

Yu Simei has always been very reserved in front of outsiders, and if it was another stranger, she would definitely not agree. But Fan Demin's identity is different, Yu Simei is not easy to offend, so she can only walk out hard.

Fan Demin asked with a smile: "Xiaoqiang, what is the relationship between this Xiao and you?"

"She is my master's partner, has a stake in Shennong Pharmaceutical Factory, and is currently the deputy director of Shennong Pharmaceutical Factory. ”

Fan Demin originally thought that Yu Simei was Niu Xiaoqiang's relative or acquaintance, but when he heard that the other party was a shareholder of Shennong Pharmaceutical Factory, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then stretched out his right hand with a smile: "It turns out that you are a female boss, hello, hello." ”

Yu Simei shook hands with Fan Demin a little embarrassed, because she was nervous, she didn't say a word.

Niu Xiaoqiang helped to play the round: "Uncle Fan, Deputy Director Yu is not good at words, she is usually mainly responsible for the research and development of drugs, and rarely yells at others, don't have opinions about her just because she doesn't speak." ”

Fan Demin deliberately glanced at Niu Xiaoqiang: "Look at what you said, am I that kind of person?"

Niu Xiaoqiang hurriedly apologized: "Of course not, I said the wrong thing, I punished myself." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang didn't drink alcohol at all before, but since he drank it a few times, he gradually began to get used to it, and the amount of alcohol was relatively good, and there was no problem with drinking three or two.

The atmosphere on the wine table seemed to be very harmonious, Fan Demin and Niu Xiaoqiang pushed the cups and changed the glasses, and ate happily.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors, Fan Demin tentatively asked Yu Simei: "Less, you shouldn't be a local, right?"

Yu Simei is indeed not a local, but she has lived in the local area for several years, and her accent is no different from that of the locals, no matter how you look at it, it is difficult to see the clues.

Because of this, Niu Xiaoqiang and Yu Simei were all very surprised by Fan Demin's sudden question, and Niu Xiaoqiang first asked, "Uncle Fan, how do you see this?"

Fan Demin wiped his mouth: "A few years ago, I went on a business trip to Nanshan City, once when I was waiting for the bus, I saw a missing person notice at the station, which was looking for a girl named Yu Simei, although the photo is not very clear, but the general outline can still be understood, this is located in the deputy factory director is also surnamed Yu, and the girl in the photo looks a little like the taste, I just saw her and felt familiar, but the first time we met, I didn't ask much, and now I am an acquaintance, I will have this question." ”

No wonder Fan Demin took the initiative to ask Yu Simei why he didn't go to the table to eat, and he paid attention to Yu Simei from the beginning, and also linked Yu Simei with the girl on the missing person notice.

Niu Xiaoqiang was a little puzzled by this: "Uncle Fan, you saw the missing person notice several years ago, why do you still remember it so clearly?"

Fan Demin showed a self-deprecating expression: "Mainly because the remuneration for dismissal is very high, at that time there were five hundred yuan, I was not the director of the department at the time, and the housing at home was relatively difficult, seeing that there were so many honorariums, I couldn't help but look at it a few more times, and at that time I was thinking that if I could find that girl, I would have the money to buy a house, now I think about it is really a little funny, the sea of people is vast, how can such a good thing be so easy for me to encounter?"

It had been several years since Yu Simei left her uncle's house, and that was in 1970, when 500 yuan was definitely a huge amount of money, and many villages did not have so much even if all the residents' savings were combined.

Needless to say, the girl who was looking for the missing person notice was likely to be Yu Simei. Others don't know the details of Yu Simei, but Niu Xiaoqiang does.

Yu Simei's hometown is in Lingdong Province, Lingdong Province and Jiangdong Province are next to each other, and Nanshan City, which Fan Demin just mentioned, is the capital city of Lingdong Province.
