Chapter 476 (1/2)
Li Mengting, Xie Tianlai and I drove back to the golden palace with a group of Dongxing brothers.
Xie Tianlai and his gang have known that I am competing with Chen Wen for the master of the Chen family. Although they have heard many rumors about me as the son of the Dragon Lord before and have seen Xiao Mei take care of me many times, they have not really determined that I am a member of the Chen family among the four families until today, and even have the opportunity to inherit the Chen family business.
At present, nearly 200 Dongxing brothers gathered in the Jindian conference room and looked at me with different eyes. Some were excited, some were curious, some were full of longing for the future, and many were uneasy and worried about the current situation. Xie Tianlai couldn't help asking the voice of everyone: ”Boss, are you going to be the leader of the five dragons, or do you take all your energy to compete with Chen Wen for the position of Chen's master first?”
I said faintly, ”you don't have to worry about the Chen family. Let's solve the Wulong affair first.”
It took me a month to compete with Chen Wen for the owner of the house, while the election of the leader of the five major societies in Hedong was the Mid Autumn Festival half a month later. Although my struggle with Chen Wen was endless, now I was weak in the Chen family, so I secretly made a bold decision: first deal with several other societies, become the leader of the five dragons, gather the strength of the five societies, and then I will have the ability Challenge Chen Wen and his second uncle.
The brothers saw that I told them to leave the affairs of the Chen family alone. I didn't even say I wanted to be the leader. I just said to solve the five dragons. Compared with my ambitious proposal to be the leader a few days ago, they had to keep a low profile. They couldn't understand my idea, so they had to go back to guard the territory of Dongxing and act on standby according to my instructions.
At noon, the rain stopped.
Li Mengting saw that I was not in a good mood. She basically stretched her face and focused on thinking all morning. At noon, she smiled and invited me to lunch. She also suggested going to Zhenjiang street, Yuanjiang wharf, Hedong to eat seafood.
Although I didn't have much appetite, I couldn't resist Li Mengting's enthusiasm, so I had to be pulled out of the golden hall by her. Li Mengting drove her red Ferrari and sped all the way to Zhenjiang street.
Hedong city is a coastal city, and seafood is especially cheap. Zhenjiang street is the most famous place to eat seafood in Lihai city.
Li Mengting casually chose a hotel with better decoration, and then took my arm and walked in with me. Li Mengting was charming and beautiful, and she had a big figure and dared to wear it. The tailored blue and white cheongsam perfectly outlined her moving figure curve. When walking, her waist and hips twisted rhythmically, making the men around her green Yes.
This hotel is called Sihai hotel. Its facade is very large and its decoration is passable, but it seems that there are not many diners. You know, many foreign tourists come to Lihai city to taste the seafood of Lihai city. The most suitable place to eat seafood is Zhenjiang street, but compared with the booming business of other hotels on the street, Sihai hotel seems a little deserted.
Although Li Mengting and I were a little surprised, it was difficult to find a parking space in other popular restaurants because of the lunch time. We even had to wait for the table for dinner, so we didn't change places and chose this Four Seas Hotel for lunch.
Almost all the waiters here are men. Even the foreman is a young man with yellow hair. If this guy didn't wear a waiter's uniform, I would misunderstand him as a local ruffian.
Seeing that Li Mengting and I were dressed like rich people, the foreman Huang Mao brightened his eyes and took Li Mengting and me to the seafood tank to choose seafood.
There are a lot of seafood in the water tank. There are all kinds of sea fish, shrimp and sea cucumber. Li Mengting selects seafood with great interest. Because the name and price of seafood are not written on the water tank, Li Mengting will ask the yellow hair, what is this shrimp and what is the name of this fish from time to time, and the yellow hair foreman answered patiently.
However, we passed a water tank with a red sea fish. Li Mengting subconsciously pointed to the fish in the water tank and asked, ”this fish is...”
Captain Huang Mao, who had been holding the net bag in his hand, seemed to have been specially trained. Li Mengting wanted to ask what the fish was called as a rule. But before she could finish speaking, Captain Huang Mao gave a direct Oh, then lightning put the net bag in his hand into the water tank and caught the red sea fish out of the net. Then he smashed the red sea fish towards the ground, and the fish was killed on the spot Smashed to death.
In the stunned eyes of Li Mengting and I, leader Huang Mao slowly put the red sea fish on the nearby electronic scale, weighed it, and then grinned at us: ”red grouper, just a kilogram, 2400 yuan. Do you want steamed or braised?”
Shit, Li Mengting stretched out her hand and wanted to ask what kind of fish it was. This guy directly netted the fish and smashed it to death. It's clearly a black shop that buys and sells. No wonder other hotels have such good business, but there are few people here, so he can cheat some foreign tourists.
Li Mengting's jade Luocha suddenly raised eyebrows and opened her eyes: ”your means are very black. You force buying and selling? And the price of red grouper. According to the market price I know, it's only 80 yuan or two. At most, it's 800 yuan per kilogram. You asked for 2400, which has tripled. It's really a fat sheep slaughter?”
