How to be financially free

Chapter 71
"Hey, it's Wang Tianxiang."

Xu Wen glanced at the calling number.

Wang Tianxiang is his college classmate, and he was at the same table in high school, and the relationship is very good.

It is common to eat and drink together on weekdays, but if you say they are wine and meat friends, it is not true. The two go out to eat and drink is only secondary, and at the same time they will discuss some deep-seated issues.

However, Xu Wen was busy with part-time jobs this summer, so he really didn't have much contact with the people from the university.

It was because I was busy before, but now?It's true that we are drifting away, and we can't get together.

After answering the phone, Xu Wen smiled and walked aside to talk.

"Why, Brother Xiang, why are you free to call me today?"

"Xu Wen, long time no see, today I am going to treat you to a meal, chat, and have some beer."

The voice on the phone was deliberately brisk, but Xu Wen still keenly felt a trace of distress.

"Okay! Where are you going?" Xu Wen responded readily and asked for the specific location.

"The old place! On Chuangye Street near my home, Zhao Liu's indoor food stall. It looks like six o'clock in the evening! See you soon."

"OK!" Xu Wen asked again, "Brother, are you alright?"

"It's okay, it's okay, what can be the matter!" Xu Wen heard the subtext in his ears, "There are things, there are a lot of things."

"Okay! See you tonight." Xu Wen hung up the phone and said to Sun Nana, "Since you are here today, you can have fun and don't worry about me. All expenses will be charged to my account. I have something to do later, so I will leave first .”

"Okay Mr. Xu, then you go first." Sun Nana got up and nodded quickly.

Xu Wen nodded and left first.

When Xu Wen left, Sun Nana looked at Zhao Feifei and waved.

"Sister Nana." Facing Sun Nana, Zhao Feifei was a little timid and didn't dare to look at people.

"Aren't you very courageous just now?" Sun Nana snorted twice, and warned: "You! Work is work, so you don't have to think about it all day long, and let me see that you are not big or small, I really... ··”

Zhao Feifei shrank her head, and coaxed Sun Nana while talking and laughing, "Sister Nana, I know I was wrong. The main reason is that the boss is too charming. I will definitely restrain myself next time, I must restrain myself!"

Sun Nana gave her a blank look and didn't bother to talk to her.

It was evening when Xu Wen left Mufeng Pavilion, and there was still a while before dinner, so he drove back to the hotel first.

After 05:30, Xu Wen took a taxi directly to the destination.

Entrepreneurship Street in Haicheng is quite old and modern. It can be said that when Xu Wen and his generation were still young, and their parents were young and middle-aged, Entrepreneurship Street was already prosperous.

It is one kilometer long, and there are various storefronts on both sides. In the evening, there are crowds of people, and the water can't get through.

There used to be a joke that if you drive once from Chuangye Street, basically your driving level will be fine.

In addition to the newly opened stores on the street, there are also quite a few old stores that have been open for more than 20 years. Some of them have inherited their father's business and have passed it on to the next generation.

Zhao Liu's indoor food stall is such a store, which is famous for its cheap, delicious, affordable and large quantity. In the early years, Zhao Liu was in charge of cooking, and now Zhao Liu's son, Xiao Zhao, inherited his father's business and continued to carry forward the store.

"Master, just stop at the intersection, you can't get out even if you go in." As soon as the taxi approached the intersection of Chuangye Street, Xu Wen asked the taxi driver to stop.

"Thank you, thank you." The taxi driver clasped his hands together and thanked him.

But this is also the tacit understanding of the locals in Haicheng. No one would make it difficult for the master to drive in and come to Chuangye Street. On the contrary, it is more fun to walk.

After getting out of the car, Xu Wen walked directly, feeling the atmosphere of fireworks in the market while walking.

Pancakes, barbecue, stinky tofu, Sichuan cuisine, Hunan cuisine, Jiangsu and Zhejiang cuisine all the way.

The old store stands still, and the new store will run away when it opens!Crop after crop makes Chuangye Street always full of vitality.

"Hey, the cakes are still open! Bring two." Xu Wen accidentally saw a shop selling crispy chicken pancakes.

The so-called crispy chicken biscuits are crispy biscuits sandwiched with chicken tenders, stinky tofu, and kimchi.

Seeing that the time was still close, Xu Wen also joined the queue.

After a while, Xu Wen took two cakes, Shi Shiran, to the food stall in Zhao Liu's room.

At this point, it was the peak time, and Zhao Liu’s indoor food stall was buzzing with people, and Xiao Zhao was drawing orders at the bar at the entrance to pay, and greeted the new guests by the way.

"Brothers." Seeing Xu Wen entered the store, he greeted him immediately.

"He's already here." Xu Wen waved his hand.

"Okay, please come inside." Xiao Zhao made a gesture, and Xu Wen went deep into the store.

"Xu Wen, this way!" Wang Tianxiang's voice was a bit heartbreaking amidst the noise.

Reluctantly following the sound, a shy young man sat in a far corner and stretched his neck and shouted.

"When did you come?" Xu Wen sat down, handed him a biscuit, and picked up the inferior napkin on the table to wipe the oil on the table.

"Yo Hou, crispy chicken biscuits, this is awesome, let me pad it first." Wang Tianxiang's eyes lit up, he picked up the biscuits and gnawed them.

Wang Tianxiang is actually quite shy at ordinary times, but only between men can he show his true temperament without hiding it.

"Xu Wen, come and order some lobster, and I just ordered beer." Wang Tianxiang handed over the menu while eating sesame seed cakes.

"Less, can you finish your meal?" Xu Wen took the menu, picked up a pencil and ordered according to the old ones.

"There is no reason why two big men can't finish eating, but eat hard, by the way..."

Wang Tianxiang chuckled, "By the way, accompany me for a drink."

"Lobster, bone soup, and vegetables are enough." Xu Wen raised his eyes and glanced at him, writing and drawing, and handed the menu to the waiter beside him.

"Where is the wine, waiter, hurry up." Wang Tianxiang hurriedly urged.

"Come here!" This kind of old shop doesn't have any service attitude. The waiters are all middle-aged aunts, and Wang Tianxiang doesn't care.

After a while, a case of beer was brought in.

"Let's open a bottle first!" Xu Wen said after sweeping the box of beer.

"That's not enough! By the way, don't take the cup, let's drink directly from the bottle today."

Seeing that Xu Wen wanted to take a plastic cup, Wang Tianxiang hurriedly stopped him.

"Hey, that's not right! What have you experienced?"

Xu Wen asked, but didn't listen to his nonsense, and still only opened one bottle per person.

"Nothing!" Wang Tianxiang shook his head and drank first.

"That's okay, let's have a touch first?" Xu Wen nodded and picked up the wine glass.

"Come on, let's touch it!" Wang Tianxiang picked up the wine bottle and bumped Xu Wen's wine bottle, then gurgled and killed most of the bottle.

"Ha! Exciting." After thinking about it, Wang Tianxiang shook his head.

Seeing that Wang Tianxiang didn't say anything, Xu Wen didn't rush, and chatted with him about trivial things in school.

Speaking of these, he was very excited, sometimes it was the monitor's gossip, and sometimes it was the classmates who were with so-and-so again.

The lobsters were the fastest, and when Wang Tianxiang was talking about rising, a large pot of lobsters was brought up.

"Come on! Let's eat and chat!"
