Official road bends

Hearing Li Yi's order-like tone, the students were all stunned. .

Feng Jian sneered: "Comrade Li Yi, you can ask someone to reserve fifteen tables for you with just one phone call? Can you agree?"

Li Yi smiled slightly: "Or, my thin face may be worth fifteen tables!"

The students were all amazed, and some said that the Chuyi Theater was famous, not to mention the table, even an ordinary seat needs to be reserved, you need fifteen tables at once, I am afraid it is very difficult to get. !

Feng Jian smiled and said to everyone: "Everyone knows that tickets for the Chuyi Theater need to be reserved, but our Comrade Li Yi can directly ask for [-] tables! Tell me, we can really get a table at night. Do you want to go to the Chuyi Theater to watch a performance?"

He said this tactfully, but the audience understood it.

The implication is: Comrade Li Yi just gave us a blank check!It seemed how generous and respectable he was, and how famous he was in the social circles of the capital!In fact, there was nothing, and at night, he found another excuse, saying that there were no seats and the crowd was already overcrowded, so he could prevaricate.

Everyone laughed, and no one pierced the layer of paper.

Li Yi smiled lightly and did not explain.

If you want to win the respect and understanding of the world, you can't achieve your goal by explaining yourself. You have to do it yourself and do things well. Others will naturally know your means and understand you as a person.

This afternoon, the students all knew that Li Yi was having a treat tonight. As soon as school was over, they all surrounded Li Yi and asked him where to eat.

Li Yi smiled and said a place name.

"Qingfengzhai?" Feng Jian laughed and said, "Isn't this the name of a calligraphy and painting academy? You are inviting us to dinner, not to enjoy calligraphy and painting."

Li Yi said: "This is indeed the name of a restaurant, haven't you heard of it?"

Some people are thinking, some people are shaking their heads.

"Of course," Li Yi said with a smile: "Most of the people who gather there are literati and scholars. If you like calligraphy and painting, then go to Qingfengzhai, it will be the right place for you!"

"Comrade Li Yi, don't care what your name is, as long as you have something to eat." Wu Yun said with a smile: "Students, do you think so?"

Feng Jian said: "That's what I said, but we are all bureau-level cadres anyway, if we go to eat in a place that is too shabby, we will feel sorry for our identities! Even if we don't go to such a high-end restaurant as Zaiguanyuan, what should we do? Have to find a decent canteen?"

He had a lot of blood last time, and this time he didn't want to spare Li Yi easily.

Wu Yundao: "I think the name Qingfengzhai is very old-fashioned. If it is a restaurant, it should be very tasteful. We are at home, don't we have to eat everyday food? In my opinion, it's just a little bit. "

Before Feng Jian could speak, he heard a classmate shout, "Qingfengzhai, this name is so familiar!"

"What? Have you heard of it? Or have you been there?" Feng Jian asked.

"Oh, I seem to have heard it mentioned, but I haven't been there." The classmate replied.

Li Yi smiled and said: "You don't have to guess, you will know what kind of place it is when you go there. The only thing I can guarantee is that I will never let you down."

Everyone was suspicious, got into the car, followed Li Yi's car, and went to Qingfengzhai.

The location of Qingfengzhai is an old-fashioned courtyard house, with ancient walls and rich gates at the entrance, which looks quite serious, showing the long history of this house.

"Why are there still two big stone lions standing at this gate?" Feng Jian said with a smile, "This place used to be the gate of the yamen, right?"

"That's a unicorn!" Li Yi smiled and said, "It's not a lion."

Everyone laughed.

Feng Jian made a big joke, but she didn't mind, and laughed three times with everyone, and said, "This unicorn is so carved that it looks like a lion!"

Everyone laughed again.

At the gate of the courtyard, two red lanterns are hung, and there is a plaque on the main gate with three big characters in seal script.

"What's this word?" Feng Jian pointed to the plaque and said with a smile, "It's written beautifully, but I can't recognize it."

Li Yi said: "This is the three words Qingfengzhai."

At this time, the classmate who said he had heard of Qingfengzhai just now shouted: "I remembered, Qingfengzhai! This is the restaurant opened by Mr. Gu Yishan himself."

As soon as they heard the word Gu Yishan, everyone was in awe immediately.

"Isn't Gu Yishan a master of calligraphy and painting? He also runs a restaurant?" Feng Jian is not too ignorant, and knows that there is such a number one person as Gu Yishan.

"Gu Gu opened this restaurant mainly to facilitate gatherings of people in the literati circle." Li Yi said: "The chefs here are all top masters in the country. If you want to eat real delicious food, come here. If you want to eat famous, Just go to the garden."

"Is it so good?" Feng Jian said, "I don't think there are many people here! On the other hand, Guanyuan is full of traffic."

Li Yi smiled and said: "That's because I have already told Mr. Gu that I have booked this place today, so I won't entertain other people here."

The classmate who said he knew Qingfengzhai just now exclaimed at this moment: "Comrade Li Yi, then you are really a face-saving person! Let's not talk about how expensive the banquet in Qingfengzhai is, just because you can book here Enough to make us admire! I appreciate the friendship you treat your classmates!"

Wu Yun asked: "What? Is the food here expensive?"

"Expensive!" The classmate replied, "Everything played here is art! Therefore, even a bite of rice, vegetables, and soup must pay attention to art. It is exquisitely cooked and delicious! I have only heard of , It’s just a small plate of green vegetables, which can be sold for 30 yuan at most outside, but it costs 80 to [-] yuan here!”

"Ah?" Everyone was surprised: "These tables are so expensive? Why are they selling green vegetables? They are obviously selling gold!"

"Art! Art! Do you understand?" Seeing everyone surrounding him, the classmate was a little triumphant, and talked eloquently: "Art is eaten here, and art is played here. Think about it, artists, write a few Words and a few strokes can make a blank piece of paper worth tens of thousands of times in an instant! It can be sold for tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars. When they play art, do they still care about this little money? "

Everyone sighed, "The richest and most chic is an artist?"

"It's expensive, it's nothing." The classmate continued: "There are a lot of rich people now, including millionaires, multi-millionaires, and billionaires. If you only have money, you can If you eat in Qingfengzhai, then this is not a place for art! Those who can eat here are all celebrities in the art world. If you are not famous, you will not be accepted here!"

"Hey!" Everyone was even more surprised, turning their heads to look at Li Yi.

Li Yi laughed: "I'm not a famous artist, and neither are you. We are tarnishing art by coming here today! But don't worry, everyone, just go inside and guarantee that they will receive us."

Feng Jian said: "Comrade Li Yi, why can you bring us people who don't understand art to eat here?"

Li Yidao: "Thanks to the kindness of the old Mr. Mengmeng Yishan, he gave me a VIP card and invited me to come to Qingfengzhai again and again. Unfortunately, I have never been free. Today is just right. I would like to take this opportunity to invite everyone to taste this famous restaurant. A feast for the art world!"

When everyone looked at Qingfengzhai, an ancient courtyard, their eyes immediately changed. They all stood up in awe, straightened their chests, and pretended to be gentle and elegant.

Everyone was about to walk in, when there was a burst of laughter from the door: "I guess, you should come too! So I greeted you."

A middle-aged man in a Tang suit came out of the door. His face was fat and shiny. Although he was fat, he ran fast. He strode over, stretched out his hands to Li Yi, and said with a smile: "Mr. Li, I heard that you are here I am not presumptuous and come here uninvited, you will not drive me away, will you?"

Li Yi joined hands with him: "Lu Kun, your news is really well-informed!"

The person who came was Lu Kun, who was also the number one figure in the art world of the capital.

Among the classmates, someone recognized Lu Kun and came up to say hello to him.

Lu Kun and Qi Yun Society are well-known in the capital city. People who have been in the capital city and are in the officialdom will generally know Lu Kun's name.

Lu Kun's airs are very high. Except for Li Yi, he is not so enthusiastic when dealing with others. He just shakes hands lightly and says hello.From his expression, it can be seen that he obviously doesn't know these people who deal with him.

Feng Jian and the others were naturally secretly surprised, and at the same time puzzled, how could this Li Yi get the courtesy and respect of these "big men"?

Li Yi is just a young man in his 30s, and his official rank is not too high, an ordinary department-level cadre!

How could "people" like Gu Yishan and Lu Kun look at Li Yi favorably?Especially this Lu Kun, he is indifferent to other people, but he is low-browed and pleasing to Li Yi!

Today's dinner, Li Yi really arranged it as a bureau, and he also took great pains for this.

First, in order to completely defeat someone like Feng Jian with his eyes above the top, he must show his strength, so that Feng Jian has nothing to say and completely bows his head.

Second, this group of party school students will work in important positions all over the motherland in the future. It is very beneficial to make friends with such a group of people. How can we impress them the most?Let them remember, remember, and admire Li Yi when they mention Li Yi's name eight or ten years later!

It is not a wise move to show off your wealth or reveal your wealth.

Through such means, it is a wise move to use celebrity effects to highlight one's identity and status.

In fact, Li Yi's goal has also been achieved.

The students have already admired Li Yi!

This is more impressive to the students than the pile of "Li Yi's deeds" mentioned by Professor Wang Qing! (To be continued.)
