After Wu Aiguo sent Liang Jing home, he rode his bicycle to Emei Restaurant.

Emei Restaurant is a time-honored Sichuan cuisine restaurant in Kyoto. It was founded in 1950 and is the most unique famous Sichuan cuisine restaurant in Kyoto.

"Director Wu! Why did you come here on a bicycle in such a cold weather? If I had known, I would have arranged a car to pick you up." Dean Zhang saw Wu Aiguo's arrival and hurried forward to greet Wu Aiguo. Patriotic greeting.

Facing Dean Zhang's enthusiasm, Wu Aiguo parked his bicycle at the storage place, and replied with a smile: "Dean Zhang! Our Xiaojing is worried that I am not safe to drink and drive, so I am not allowed to drive out. I have no choice but to I can brave the cold wind and come to the appointment by bicycle."

When Dean Zhang heard Wu Aiguo's joke, he smiled and invited Wu Aiguo: "Director Wu! Lao Liang and the others are already here, please come in quickly!"

Wu Aiguo followed Dean Zhang into a box, and saw Liang Dehua and two strange middle-aged people sitting in the box chatting.

"Aiguo! You're here!" Liang Dehua greeted Wu Aiguo with a smile when he saw Dean Zhang and Wu Aiguo walking into the box from the outside.

Dean Zhang led Wu Aiguo into the box, and immediately introduced to Wu Aiguo: "Aiguo! Let me introduce you. This is my old comrade-in-arms Zhang Guohua. He works in our Kyoto Municipal Health Bureau. This is You Shaowu." , working in the Kyoto City Cultural Bureau."

Dean Zhang introduced here, and introduced to the two with a smile: "Lao Zhang! Lao You! This is Lao Liang's son-in-law, Comrade Wu Aiguo. Although he is young, he is now a department-level cadre. Work in a subordinate unit."

Upon hearing Dean Zhang's introduction, Wu Aiguo greeted the two of them politely: "Hello Director Zhang! Hello Director You! It's a pleasure to meet you two."

Seeing Wu Aiguo greet him politely, Zhang Guohua said with a smile, "Old Liang! I've heard that your family Xiaojing found you a very capable son-in-law. Today I finally met a real person!"

At this point in Zhang Guohua's words, he stretched out his hand with a smile, shook hands with Wu Aiguo, and said with a smile: "Comrade Xiao Wu! Hello! I am very happy to know you!"

After seeing Zhang Guohua greeting Wu Aiguo, You Shaowu extended his hand with a smile, shook hands with Wu Aiguo, and said politely: "Hi! Comrade Wu Aiguo! Although we are meeting for the first time, but for your name, I've been like thunder for a long time, and today I finally saw you in person."

Hearing You Shaowu's compliment, Wu Aiguo immediately pretended to be flattered, and politely replied: "Director You! Hello! You must not say that. Compared with you seniors, the achievements I have made , is not worth mentioning at all.”

Soon the waiter brought the dishes into the box. Dean Zhang picked up the wine bottle on the side and poured a glass of wine for everyone. Then he raised the wine glass in front of him and said loudly: "This is the first glass of wine! Let's have a drink together. Drink, here I would like to wish you all a new year in advance, and wish you all success in work, success in everything and happiness in the new year!"

When Wu Aiguo heard what Dean Zhang said, he immediately raised the wine glass in front of him, and then followed the others and drank all the wine in the glass.

After Dean Zhang waited for everyone to drink, he quickly picked up the wine bottle and personally refilled the wine for everyone. Then he raised the wine glass again and said to Wu Aiguo with a smile: "Director Wu! This glass of wine is for me. Here’s to you, thank you for your help to our People’s Hospital, everything is in the wine!”

Hearing Dean Zhang's words, Wu Aiguo immediately raised his wine glass, pretending to be flattered and replied: "President Zhang! Look at what you said, I am also a family member of the People's Hospital, and this is what I should do."

After Wu Aiguo said this, he suddenly remembered what Liang Jing had told him on the way home at night, and quickly took out a approval note from his pocket, smiled and said to Dean Zhang: "Dean Zhang! Go home in the evening Xiaojing already told me that this item is for you, and you can check if the quantity on it is correct."

Dean Zhang drank all the wine in the glass. When he heard Wu Aiguo's words, he immediately put down the empty glass in his hand, took the approval note from Wu Aiguo's hand, glanced at the content on it, and said to him happily Wu Aiguo thanked him: "Director Wu! Thank you very much, but how should I give you this money?"

When Wu Aiguo heard Dean Zhang's words, he drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, and then replied with a smile: "Dean Zhang! You can just give the money to our Xiaojing."

Zhang Guohua at the side, hearing the conversation between the two, pretended to be confused and said, "Old Zhang! You and Director Wu are playing some charades, and I am a little confused by you."

Upon hearing Zhang Guohua's words, Dean Zhang cooperated and said: "Old Zhang! You don't know, isn't it the Chinese New Year soon? I wanted to buy some pork and sugar to visit some old leaders, but because of the lack of supplies , I arranged for people to go to several supply and marketing cooperatives, but I couldn't buy these things, so I asked Director Wu for help, and this problem was solved."

Zhang Guohua heard the situation introduced by Dean Zhang, and asked Wu Aiguo pretending to be surprised: "Director Wu! Do you have any connections in this area?"

"Old Zhang! Don't think that Aiguo is just a department-level cadre, but he is indeed a department-level cadre with real power. His ability is greater than those of us at the department level. If we say that we have food shortages, we will Said Director Wu helped to solve it." Dean Zhang heard Zhang Guohua's inquiry, and before Wu Aiguo could answer, he immediately introduced Wu Aiguo's ability to Zhang Guohua with a smile.

Liang Guohua on the side saw Dean Zhang and Zhang Guohua singing the double act in unison, and immediately smiled and said to Zhang Guohua: "Director Zhang! Don't listen to Lao Zhang's nonsense. Patriotism just happens to work in a special department. There is absolutely no such thing. Lao Zhang said it was so powerful."

When Dean Zhang heard what Liang Guohua said, he immediately said to Liang Guohua: "Old Liang! I'm not bragging. I'm just saying that in the current environment, there are a few people who can get so many in-demand materials like Director Wu."

Hearing Dean Zhang's compliment, Wu Aiguo immediately said, "Dean Zhang! My dad is right. I was able to get supplies thanks to the help of my friends. Please don't say that."

When Zhang Guohua heard what Wu Aiguo said, he pretended to be surprised and asked Wu Aiguo: "Director Wu! Can you also help me get some pork? There are more than 300 people in our unit. I don't want more, just seven hundred pounds." , as for the price of pork, it can be settled according to the price of Pigeon Market."

When Wu Aiguo saw Dean Zhang and Zhang Guohua singing the oboe just now, he vaguely guessed the purpose of Dean Zhang and others.

Facing Zhang Guohua's request, Wu Aiguo pretended to be embarrassed and pondered for a while, and then said: "Director Zhang! To tell you the truth, the supplies I recorded in the People's Hospital were actually obtained for others, but since you I have already said this, and I have to give you face, do you think this is okay, I will give you five hundred catties of pork?"
