Chapter 253: Shimonoseki Restaurant

Shame on you!

Horseback riding is a noble sport.

In any respect, the so-called horseback riding is to ride Mongolian horses, Arabian horses, flower horses, and so on.

No matter how bad it is, riding a bantam is acceptable.

To ride a horse is to ride a horse.

Not riding a donkey.

People ride horses, I ride donkeys.

Young Master Meng never takes the usual path.

Shame on you!

Young Master Meng let out a cry of pathos in his heart.

Didn't you offend Miss Kong at the art exhibition? What about you?

You ride a horse, why do you give me a donkey?

You're a tall horse, but what about me?

Am I fucking Zhang Guolao?

What's even more annoying is that the eldest lady still has to ride a horse and run in parallel with Young Master Meng.

That scene!

A man riding a tall horse is accompanied by a donkey rider.

Young Master Meng wanted to cry.

So, don't offend the powerful.

These powerful people may not be able to do some ridiculous things.

"Section Chief Meng."

"Miss."

Meng Shaoyuan found that he had to turn sideways and raise his head in order to talk to the eldest lady.

"I finally got this donkey found, are you used to riding it?"

Get used to your sister.

Seeing Meng Shaoyuan's bitter face, Kong Lingyi held back the urge to laugh: "When did you learn to ride a horse?" ”

"I've learned it a long time ago." Meng Shaoyuan was ashamed: "When I was at the Hangzhou Police Academy, my horseback riding level was one of the best in the same batch of students. ”

Braggart King!

Kong Lingyi asked slowly: "That ...... yours Does your hip still hurt? ”

Meng Shaoyuan blushed in an instant.

Do you already know about the co-authorship?

I said it earlier, and let your Young Master Meng come here to make this appearance.

"Meng Shaoyuan, your serious braggadocio is quite funny."

Are you praising me or scolding me?

Looking at Meng Shaoyuan's embarrassed face, Kong Lingyi finally couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Okay, it's enough to embarrass you, what you want me to do, I told my father, he agreed, there will be news in the next few days." ”

Meng Shaoyuan was overjoyed, and what embarrassment and embarrassment were thrown out of the clouds in an instant.

It's really easy to do things with someone in the court.

Dai Li's problem that he couldn't solve for so long, he accompanied the eldest lady for a few days, and it was done.

The establishment of the special fund will solve many problems for the military command.

There is no need to worry about this in the next few years.

"I heard that there is a vacancy in the Ministry of Finance in Shanghai."

Kong Lingyi suddenly said: "You once expressed your views on the country's economy from your uncle, which is very insightful, so are you interested in developing in finance?" ”

Meng Shaoyuan was stunned.

Ah, what I said to Song Ziwen that day about the country's economic construction, others also know?

"Uncle told my mother that day." Kong Lingyi seemed to comfort Meng Shaoyuan there: "He is full of praise for you, saying that it is really rare for a person who is engaged in spy work to have unique views on the economy." ”

Meng Shaoyuan was silent for a moment: "Miss, I've been a spy for a long time, so I still think this place is more suitable for me." ”

Kong Lingyi nodded: "Since this is the case, then I won't force you." The two of you are going to set up a new deputy head in Shanghai, and if you want, I can talk to Dai Li. ”

This is an opportunity to climb to the top.

But Meng Shaoyuan knew that there was no free cake in this world.

From a small spy to a deputy section chief, he climbed up step by step, including Dai Li's appreciation of himself, and more by virtue of his own efforts.

Therefore, although he is the youngest section-level cadre of the Second Division, there are almost no people who oppose him.

Although sooner or later I will go to Shanghai, it is certainly not now.

Now that I'm gone, no one will convince me.

Shanghai is too big, those district chiefs and stationmasters, who will see themselves in their hearts.

How can you be so comfortable in Nanjing, you can do whatever you want, and no one cares what you want.

I went to Shanghai immediately, and I would be constrained in everything I did, and there would be restraints everywhere.

As Chen Rongyang said, in Shanghai, it can be roughly divided into the "concession faction" and the "Hongkou faction".

The other forces are probably even more complicated.

If one doesn't get it right, don't do anything for yourself, just think about how to get along with these forces.

The best time to cut in is to gain a firm foothold in the base camp now, and then wait for the Battle of Songhu to break out, and enter Shanghai in one fell swoop when the guns are unanimous with the outside world, and open up their own sphere of influence in Shanghai with the autumn wind sweeping away the leaves.

Therefore, Meng Shaoyuan opened his mouth and said, "Miss, thank you for your kindness. But Shao Yuan is going to be the deputy head of the district now, I'm afraid there are many people who are not convinced, so let's take it step by step. ”

A hint of disappointment flashed through Kong Lingyi's eyes.

Meng Shaoyuan was astute, and then said: "However, in a few months, Shaoyuan will definitely come to Shanghai, and he will stay there for a long time." ”

"Really?"

"Really!"

Kong Lingyi smiled: "Then I'll wait for you in Shanghai, Section Chief Meng." ”

Don't wait.

If it's really coming, it's a war.

That's not a good thing.

Kong Lingyi said with a smile: "Meng Shaoyuan, let's ride a horse and run a lap, if anyone loses, whoever treats you today, the winner of the venue is optional!" ”

"Ahh Miss, I'm a donkey! ”

"So what? I see you're a donkey, start! Drive! ”

"Hey, you're a scoundrel...... Let's go, fuck, you lazy donkey, go! ”

Nanjing, Xiaguan, French Lips Western Restaurant.

This is the most foreign place in Nanjing, the main road and the central bank, commercial banks and foreign banks gathered, and the ladies and gentlemen are proud of this consumption.

At the end of the Qing Dynasty, the Western powers set their sights on Nanjing, Jinling Pass was forced to open to the outside world, along the bank of the Yangtze River 2.5 kilometers, about 0.5 kilometers wide, foreign merchants opened foreign banks, set up wharves and warehouses, hotels, teahouses, theaters, silk villages, shoes and hat shops, clocks, money villages, silver buildings and other businesses are concentrated here, and there are several Western buildings.

Including the former site of Jiangnan Postal Administration and Bank of China Nanjing Branch.

Avenida became the most lively and foreign commercial port street in Xiaguan for a time, and it was also the most prosperous center of Nanjing.

Among them, Bank of China Nanjing Branch is undoubtedly the most eye-catching.

The three-story reinforced concrete structure and six thick columns highlight the European architectural style, which is simple, pure, extremely noble and domineering, and vaguely reveals a trace of central bank atmosphere.

Next to it is the Lips West Restaurant, which is said to be the most expensive restaurant in Shimonoseki.

Those who come here to consume are either rich or expensive, and ordinary small businessmen are afraid that they will feel distressed for a year when they come in once.

When Miss Kong came, she was personally greeted by the French owner of the restaurant, Peng Paed.

Meng Shaoyuan has been coming to Xiaguan, but it is the first time that Lips Western Restaurant has entered.

That decoration, that taste.

Even in Meng Shaoyuan's era, it was not outdated at all.

In order to welcome the arrival of Miss Kong, Lips Western Restaurant was cleared today and only accepted the guests at the eldest lady's table.

It's a pie.

Meng Shaoyuan was amazed.

"Meng Shaoyuan." As soon as he sat down, Kong Lingyi said, "I asked them to clear the field." ”

"Miss, big face."

"No, it should be said that you Meng Ke is the master."

"Why?"

"You pay for the charter."

"Ahh

Meng Shaoyuan almost sat on the ground.

Pack...... Field!

How much the fuck does it cost?

Your eldest lady is the trustee of this restaurant, right?

Where would her eldest lady care about this?

Red meat with red wine.

But in the eyes of his Young Master Meng, all that was flying in front of him was banknotes.

"Pour it full, pour it full."

Meng Shaoyuan simply took the red wine bottle himself and poured himself a large glass of red wine.

The contempt in the waiter's eyes couldn't be hidden from Young Master Meng.

I'm full, what's the matter?

I'm a consumer, and I've chartered the venue, so I'm up to me here.

Looking at Kong Lingyi again, he seems to have become accustomed to Meng Shaoyuan's rude and rude behavior.

Even, if you don't do it, it's not his Meng Shaoyuan's character.

After eating the main meal, the after-dinner wine was brandy, Kong Lingyi asked people to add a little coffee to it, and then asked the waiter to leave, not to come over.

Seeing Meng Shaoyuan raise his head and take another big sip, he said with a smile: "You can try to warm the cup with the palm of your hand, so that the wine in the cup can exude a mellow taste." ”

"Really?"

Meng Shaoyuan tried the letter suspiciously.

Swindler.

Why can't I taste any mellow taste?

"Have you always eaten Western food like this?"

Kong Lingyi was a little curious: "Eat like you did just now?" ”

"No, I know I didn't eat a top hat like that." Meng Shaoyuan poured his cup full of wine again: "I know the rules of eating Western food, what red meat and white meat, wine before and during the meal, guests drink three glasses at a time." The problem is that I don't need it now, and you're not a spy, so I don't have to hide anything in front of your eldest lady. ”

A hint of relief flashed in Kong Lingyi's eyes: "When you are an agent, do you have to change your identity at any time?" ”

Meng Shaoyuan nodded: "You can't tell others, I'm an agent, I'm here to arrest you." Sometimes, I play myself and forget who I am. Forget it, it's better that your eldest lady still doesn't want to know about these things. ”

Kong Lingyi really didn't ask much, just raised her glass slightly: "Meng Shaoyuan, thank you for protecting me these days, and also letting me see some things that I couldn't see before." Don't forget your promise to me that you will come to Shanghai. ”

"It's going to come." Meng Shaoyuan muttered, "And quickly." It's just that at that time, there are still many things to ask for the help of the eldest lady. ”

"Are you looking for a way for me?"

"Yes." Meng Shaoyuan didn't deny it at all: "You also know our rules, some things, you follow the normal way, I'm afraid you won't be able to do it in a few months." But if you can get through the relationship, a phone call can solve it. ”

"Then I'll do my best."

"Thank you, Miss." Meng Shaoyuan raised his glass: "I wish you a smooth journey." ”

"Thank you, I hope to see you in Shanghai soon, Meng Shaoyuan."

Well, in Shanghai, Meng Shaoyuan has two women who can be used.

One is Cai Xuefei, Lady of Rose.

There is also this eldest lady.

For the arrival of that day, Meng Shaoyuan had made sufficient preparations.

Including Yuan Zhonghe, who had already been sent to Shanghai.

And that day will soon come.
