Rebirth: Starting from the Cafeteria

Du Shaojie went to take a shower, and just as he sat down, he received a call from Liang Meiqin.

Liang Meiqin was so worried that she couldn't sleep, and finally made the call. After they chatted for a while, he finally figured out some things. He didn't expect that his affairs would alarm Cai Jing and Director Luo.

"Boss Cai asked me to tell you to relax. Qi Chenggang won't be around for many more days."

"Oh? What do you mean?"

Cai Jing has always been very reliable. Since she said that, she must know something.

Du Shaojie asked for a long time, but Liang Meiqin knew nothing.

"Miqin, go to bed early. I'll go to Shencheng to see you after this matter is resolved."

The two chatted for more than half an hour before hanging up the phone. He felt very tired at this point and fell asleep as soon as he lay down.

after a few days.

The matter soon came to a conclusion. The two buyers were released, the money and goods from the transaction that day were confiscated, and they were also fined 1 yuan.

Du Shaojie didn't waste any words and signaled Meng Gang to hand it over directly.

Fortunately, all the "foreign cigarettes" in the stores were taken off the shelves in advance, so the matter came to an end and the losses did not continue to expand.

This morning.

Wang Yongli brought back a piece of news to Du Shaojie: "There is a guy who used to be Sun Haiquan's employee. He claims that he knows Sun Haiquan's whereabouts, but he wants 1000 yuan, otherwise he won't tell you."

"Money is not the problem. The problem is, is there any way to verify the information provided by the other party?"

"There is no way to verify it, so we can only take a chance. However, he promised to take 500 yuan first and then tell us the news. We must pay him the remaining 500 yuan within three days."

For Du Shaojie, 1000 yuan is just a small matter, but he can't be cheated easily.

Wang Yongli tried his best to set some conditions, but he could not guarantee the reliability of the news.

Du Shaojie thought about it for a long time and decided to let Wang Yongli come forward to get the news.

"Mr. Du, that person said that Sun Haiquan went to Hong Kong and ran away secretly. He only knows that he is currently in the New Territories, but he doesn't know the exact address."

Wang Yongli got the news back, but it was difficult to confirm.

Du Shaojie stopped bothering with the details and asked Wang Yongli to pay the rest of the money. The New Territories is a concept of scope, and it is not easy to find someone. This matter can be discussed later.

Wang Yongli followed his instructions and gave the money to the man, saying, "If I find out that you lied in the future, I will make you suffer a fate worse than death."

The man even said he didn't dare and that what he said was absolutely true.

noon.

Du Shaojie cooked two dishes at home and had dinner with Wang Yuxiu.

Wang Yuxiu is now familiar with Uncle Chai and others. Sometimes she goes to chat with Uncle Chai and his wife, and sometimes she plays cards with the neighbors in the old street. Life is no longer as boring as when she first arrived.

"Mom, I won't be home for dinner tonight. You and Xiaomei can make something to eat. I'm going to visit Director Luo, so I might be back a little late."

While eating, Du Shaojie greeted Wang Yuxiu and said that he had something to do in the evening.

Wang Yuxiu nodded to indicate that she understood.

After dinner, Du Shaojie went upstairs to take a nap, and then he and Wang Yongli went to the street to buy some fruits and nutritional supplements.

In the evening, he came to Director Luo's home.

Director Luo was very happy to see him and immediately asked the nanny to add a few dishes so that he could have a couple of drinks with him.

"Director Luo, I'm grateful that you were alerted to my situation."

"What are you talking about? What kind of relationship do we have? Do we need to be so polite? I'll fine you a glass of wine."

"Okay, okay, I'll drink it."

The old and the young were chatting happily. Director Luo has been very free since his retirement, and it is rare for someone to sit down and chat with him for such a long time.

However, everyone tried to talk about happy things and not dwell on unhappy things.

It was very late when Du Shaojie got up and said goodbye.

Director Luo smiled and said, "People's experiences in life are very wonderful and unpredictable. Your troubles will soon be over, don't worry."

Du Shaojie left Director Luo's house with a hint of doubt and got into the car.

He didn't know if people like Director Luo and Cai Jing were used to saying something and leaving it unsaid, not speaking fully, and always playing tricks.

However, it didn't look like a bad thing, and he was too lazy to guess.

the next day.

Following Director Luo's instructions, Du Shaojie visited several people.

These people all had good relationships with Director Luo in the past, and they worked in various industries, but everyone had their own strengths. After everyone got to know each other, they could interact with each other in the future, and who knows when they might be able to use their skills.

After being out all day, he returned home in the afternoon.

As soon as he entered the yard, Du Shaojie saw Cai Jing and Liang Meiqin sitting in the yard chatting with Wang Yuxiu.

"Sister Cai, Miqin, why are you here? I should have called you in advance so you wouldn't have to wait so long."

"It didn't take long. We've been here for about half an hour. What have you been busy with all day? I called you several times but couldn't find you. If you don't come back soon, we might have left."

Cai Jing responded with a smile, and Wang Yuxiu got up to prepare dinner.

Liang Meiqin also quickly stood up and followed him to the kitchen.

"I went to see Director Luo last night, and he introduced some people to me. I happened to be free today, so I went to visit them one by one." Du Shaojie did not hide anything and told the other party his whereabouts.

Cai Jing couldn't help but laugh out loud:

"Have you finally figured it out? It's a good thing to expand your circle of friends, so that you don't have no one to help you when you encounter problems. People in society believe in 'a sedan chair carried by people', so you can figure it out slowly."

"Yes, I know."

Du Shaojie nodded. He actually didn’t like socializing before, so his circle was very small.

In fact, it is the same now. Most of the time, he would rather stay at home and study cooking. But the situation is stronger than the person. A small Peng Ziwu dares to control him. Isn't it because the other party thinks he has no background?

Even if he wanted to solve the problem once and for all, he had to expand his social circle.

"Actually, you don't have to worry too much. Come out for dinner with me tomorrow night, and you'll understand then. You won't have to worry about this kind of problem for years to come.

I have a piece of news for you. Comrade Feng Qingsong will be transferred to Guangdong Province soon. He has already arrived in Guangzhou. We will have dinner together tomorrow night."

When Du Shaojie heard this, he was surprised for a long time.

Feng Qingsong has been on a rapid rise in recent years, and he even met Du Shaojie when he was in Sichuan Province.

I never thought that the other party would go to Guangdong Province to take up a position in the blink of an eye. No wonder Director Luo and Cai Jing didn't say anything before, and only said it after the person arrived.

Du Shaojie had a very good relationship with Feng Qingsong when he was in Xijiang. Although the other party's status is different now, judging from tomorrow's dinner, Leader Feng is still a nostalgic person after all.

night.

Cai Jing and Liang Meiqin had a meal of mixed noodles at Du Shaojie's house, and Cai Jing said goodbye and left after the meal.

Du Shaojie sent Liang Meiqin back to Donghu New Village and left the next morning.

In the afternoon, Du Shaojie and Cai Jing met up and took a car to a sanatorium, where they met Feng Qingsong.

"You two have transformed into entrepreneurs. I should call you Mr. Cai and Mr. Du."

"Look at what the leader said. How dare we act so arrogantly in front of you?"

Feng Qingsong looked a little older, but he was in good spirits.

He took advantage of the time before the meeting was announced to invite Cai Ning and Du Shaojie to have dinner together, as he might not have time for a long time after tomorrow.

"Master Du, I've always wanted to eat the food you cook. How about showing off your cooking skills today? It doesn't have to be many. Just cook two dishes yourself and let me see if your cooking skills have improved."

Meals are served in the small cafeteria on the second floor.

The kitchen has prepared a rich variety of ingredients, and they will start cooking as soon as the leader gives the word.

When Feng Qingsong saw Du Shaojie, he couldn't help but think of the days in Xijiang, and he had to let the other party show off his skills.

"Okay, boss, do you want to eat? Tell me the name of the dish."

"Okay! Then let's have a [Big Plate Chicken], a [Beef Stew], and a [Stir-fried Barbequed Meat]. Just these three. Is that ok?"

"Boss, this is three dishes, not two."

Du Shaojie stood up with a smile and did not forget to make a joke with Feng Qingsong.

"Two or three dishes makes no difference to you. Hurry up and make them. My appetite has been aroused."

Feng Qingsong hadn't been so relaxed for a long time. While Du Shaojie was cooking, he asked about the situation in the province.

Cai Jing has her own unique perspective, and since she has left the system, she can look at things more objectively.

The two chatted for half an hour, and then the three dishes prepared by Du Shaojie were served on the table.

He quickly came over and sat down. A few more dishes were served from the cafeteria and the three of them started eating together.

Everyone was chatting happily, and Du Shaojie did not mention his own affairs. Now was a good time to reminisce about the past and not to change the subject.

The meal lasted nearly an hour, and the secretary came in to remind Feng Qingsong that he seemed to have other things to do.

"Master Du, if you have any problems in the future, just call Xiao Tang. Xiao Tang, please exchange contact information with them. I'm leaving first, don't blame me! Don't blame me!"

Feng Qingsong left first, and his secretary was not Secretary Chen, but Secretary Tang in front of him.

Secretary Tang politely exchanged contact information with Cai Jing and Du Shaojie, and then, on behalf of Feng Qingsong, escorted the two to the car.

"Ajie, you must use this relationship with caution. Contact Secretary Tang more often when you have time, and don't bother your boss with trivial matters."

Cai Jing didn't say a word along the way.

It was not until the two of them parted that she gave him a special reminder.

Du Shaojie nodded to show that he understood.

Cai Jing took a car to pick up Liang Meiqin, and then returned to Shenzhen overnight.

Du Shaojie returned home and practiced in a simulated scenario for a while. After he came out, he took stock of his recent gains.

By this time, his mind had calmed down and he no longer thought about those messy things.

During this period, he gained a lot. Another 100 dishes received the comprehensive evaluation of "Phoenix Marrow and Dragon Liver". The redemption points increased by 10 points, and the general time increased by 200 million hours.

Of course, there has been some consumption recently, a total of 8 hours.

[Exchange points: 367918 points\941066 points]

【Duration: 401 million hours\1605.30 million hours】
