Chapter 79 Another Guest

When Sun Wu's wife Chunhua sister-in-law saw Xu Yishan coming, she came up to him with a smile on her face. She took Xu Yishan's hand and said, "Brother Yishan, come and try my sister-in-law's cooking today. I'll treat you to a big Honghe carp."

Xu Yishan smiled politely and said, "I went out of my way to teach my sister-in-law her incredible cooking skills."

Sister-in-law Chunhua went to work, so Lao Sun invited Xu Yishan to sit down and drink tea.

Before the water was boiled, Lao Sun hesitated for a moment and whispered: "I invited someone else today. Brother Yishan, you won't be surprised, right?"

Xu Yishan smiled and said: "How can you be surprised? There are many people and there is an atmosphere. Old Sun, who else did you invite?"

Lao Sun smiled but did not answer, and after a while he whispered: "I invited Honghuang from the town."

Xu Yishan was surprised. Honghuang was a rich man and rarely interacted with poor people like Lao Sun. Although Lao Sun used to hold the title of Minister of Arms in the town, in Honghuang's view, a role like Lao Sun was

It's not too much to have him, and it's not enough to be without him.

Of course, Honghuang deliberately avoided conflicts with Lao Sun. For example, when Chunhua's sister-in-law set up a fried dough stick stall in the Nongmao Street, Honghuang's people never collected her protection fee.

When Xu Yishan started fighting Huang Mao on the Nongmao Street, it was already after Lao Sun was detained by Duan Yanhua.

Lao Sun was an upright person and disliked flattery and following others' influence, so he was not familiar with Honghuang at all in actual interactions.

"Invite him?" Xu Yishan thought for a moment and asked, "Why?"

Lao Sun laughed and said in a low voice: "He is now my shareholder, and we are jointly opening a civilian blasting company."

"He?" Xu Yishan was surprised again.

Based on his understanding of Honghuang, it seemed that Honghuang looked down upon this small business. Moreover, civilian demolition involved many safety issues, so it was difficult to get approval easily.

Lao Sun smiled and said: "Boss Hong is a generous man and has a very accurate vision. There is a lot of room for the future in civilian demolition. This time he agreed to invest and promised not to interfere in any of the company's operations. It was like giving the money to me.

Let me do the hard work."

Xu Yishan nodded, feeling vaguely uneasy in his heart, but he couldn't tell where he felt uneasy.

Honghuang and Lao Sun formed a partnership to open a company, which was a no-brainer in the past.

Bai Yu went to help Chunhua's sister-in-law cook. The two women talked softly and looked at Xu Yishan and the others from time to time.

Not long after, Honghuang arrived. He greeted Xu Yishan like an old acquaintance and called out affectionately, "Mayor Xu, you are here to visit."

When I go out in prehistoric times, I am never single. There are always two people by my side.

Some people say that Honghuang offended people outside and was afraid of retaliation, so he kept people by his side at all times.

The person who came with him this time was actually Huang Mao, who had a fight with Xu Yishan at the Nongmao Street last time.

Xu Yishan didn't like Huang Mao very much. He felt that this guy was just a bully. He relied on his overwhelming power to run rampant in Hongshan Town, which had already caused a lot of complaints from the people.

Xu Yishan also mentioned this matter to Meng Liang from the town police station. The implication was that in broad daylight, how could Hongshan Town still tolerate the ugly behavior of openly collecting protection fees.

Meng Liang pretended to be stupid and covered it up with a few laughs, so that Xu Yishan still hasn't figured out why Meng Liang didn't suppress it when he knew that this kind of thing existed.

Honghuang obviously felt Xu Yishan's displeasure, pointed at Huang Mao and said: "I brought this beast here today, Mayor Xu, you can kill or chop it up, it's up to you. This guy has no oil in his eyes, he is just a waste. He

How dare I offend you?"

Xu Yishan smiled lightly and said: "Boss Hong said something serious. You should discipline your brother yourself. We didn't know each other that day, so there was a misunderstanding. And this matter has already passed, so it's okay not to mention it."

Honghuang gave a thumbs up and praised: "Brother, you are awesome."

Then he turned around and scolded Huang Mao: "Why don't you thank Brother Xu? I have to drive you out because of your temper."

Huang Mao had an embarrassed look on his face. He walked up to Xu Yishan and bent down, apologizing.

Before Xu Yishan opened his mouth, Hong Huang was already scolding him, "How can you ask for Brother Xu's forgiveness like this? Kneel down and kowtow to admit your mistake."

Huang Mao didn't dare to make a sound, and was about to kneel down as soon as his knees softened.

Xu Yishan quickly grabbed him and said seriously: "How can a man kneel down casually when he has gold under his knees? Get up quickly."

Xu Yishan refused to let him kneel down, but Huang Mao insisted on kneeling down. It seemed that Xu Yishan was harming him by not letting him kneel down and admit his mistake.

He said with a mournful face: "Brother Xu, please give me a chance."

How could Xu Yishan make him kneel down and apologize? That day when the two of them started fighting, Huang Mao was the one who suffered. What's more, later on, Honghuang deliberately took care of Chunhua's sister-in-law's business. It would be really boring to continue this matter.

At Xu Yishan's insistence, Huang Mao failed to kneel down and apologize, so Hong Huang laughed and cursed: "Get out of here. You can help me remember a little bit. In Hongshan Town, Mayor Xu is God. Mine is him."

Yes, if anything happens to Mayor Xu from now on, you all have to help me move forward."

Not long after chatting, Sister-in-law Chunhua’s Honghe carp was ready. It was packed in a large aluminum pot, full of color and flavor.

The fish is sprinkled with a layer of chopped green onion, which is green and fragrant, and can whet people's appetite immediately.

Bai Yu followed Sister-in-law Chunhua and shouted happily: "Mayor Xu, our taste is so good today."

Her eyes fell on Hong Huang and she let out an unexpected sigh.

Bai Yu had contact with Honghuang, but didn't have much contact with him.

Bai Yu's position in the town is even more embarrassing than that of Lao Sun.

The Town Women's Federation itself is an organization that has nothing to do. It is not her turn to handle big things, and small things cannot be handled well. All the problems involving the family's personal interests are the most difficult problems. Bai Yu just hides away from Ali.

Already.

Hong Huang took the initiative to say hello: "Director Bai is here too."

Bai Yu smiled and replied: "Boss Hong is really elegant. Are you also interested in the big carp in the Hong River?"

Honghuang smiled and said: "Who among the people in Hongshan Town is not interested in the big carp from the Honghe River? This is a delicacy in the world, and you can't easily eat it."

Bai Yu smiled and said, "Isn't it easy for you, Boss Hong, to eat? Don't lie to us."

Hong Huang said sternly: "Director Bai misunderstood me. It's good that I have money, but money may not necessarily be able to buy what I need. Look at Old Sun, when I said I would take the carp to a restaurant for processing, he seemed afraid that I would steal a bite.

Same, I firmly refuse. No, I heard that Sister-in-law Chunhua's cooking skills surpass those of the chefs in my restaurant, so I have to come."

Bai Yu said: "It turns out that Boss Hong has not escaped the craving for food."

Honghuang glanced at her and said: "I am a person who puts food first. Of course, if you don't like to hear it, as a man, I am more willing to invest in other aspects. This is like tofu is my life. See

When it comes to meat, I don’t even want my life.”

Hong Huang's words made everyone laugh.

There is an allusion here about tofu and meat, which is a story well known to women and children in Hongshan Town.

Xu Yishan also knew this allusion, but he thought that the story of tofu and meat was not funny, but rather the tragedy of an era.
