Chapter 250
Lao Mo Restaurant, whose full name is Moscow Western Restaurant, is the earliest Western restaurant in Long Kingdom.
Throughout the 80s, it was also synonymous with high-end restaurants in Beijing. If you could have a meal here, you could brag about it for months.
Therefore.
The food at Lao Mo Restaurant is not cheap. If you want something simple, you usually get a five-yuan meal.
A plate of salad, a meat dish, half a big Russian rib, and other combinations usually cost about five yuan. The dish is not large, just enough for one person. If a family of three wants to eat here, it will cost 20 yuan for each person. Eat cheap.
If you want to eat well, you have to spend 50 yuan.
Li Cunxi is here to invite the chief of the Criminal Investigation Department to dinner today.
According to Jin Wen, the head of the Criminal Investigation Department is in his early thirties, a young man from the courtyard, good-looking, and his name is Chen Wentai.
He did not order in advance. After all, Western food is divided into portions. It is extremely impolite to rashly order for others without knowing their preferences.
After waiting for half an hour, I drank three glasses of juice.
Jin Wen came with a strong man.
Li Cunxi stood up quickly.
"Brother Chen, let me introduce you. This is my boss Li Cunxi."
"Brother Xie, this is Section Chief Chen. He worked hard on his own and became the director of an important public security department in his early thirties. It's amazing."
Jin Wen said it was an introduction, but in fact he was flattering Chen Wentai.
Li Cunxi hurriedly stretched out his hand, with a smile on his face: "I have heard about Section Chief Chen for a long time. I am lucky to get to know you. I am lucky for the rest of my life."
Chen Wentai and Li Cunxi shook hands lightly and sat down leisurely: "Since you are Xiao Jin's friend, then you are my Chen Wentai's friend. Forget about calling me by any professional title, just call me Brother Chen together with Xiao Jin."
"Ok."
Li Cunxi sat down, called the restaurant waiter, and handed the menu to Chen Wentai: "I don't know what you like to eat, so I didn't dare to order."
"I can do it."
Chen Wentai took the menu, glanced at it and said softly: "Let's have a prawn salad, grilled fish with butter, French fried pork chops, pan-fried small sausages with side dishes, red wine braised beef, and a big ribeye. For dessert, I want this sugary red one." Cherries and chocolate ice cream, forget about the wine, let’s just talk today and have a glass of fresh milk.”
"Then let me order the same dish as Brother Chen. Country people have never eaten good food. Follow Brother Chen to gain knowledge."
Li Cunxi smiled and closed the menu.
Upon seeing this, Jin Wen immediately followed up and said: "I am the same. I want to gain more knowledge with Brother Chen. I have heard that the children of the compound often eat Lao Mo with their families."
"There's nothing wrong with what you said. In the 60s, when Lao Mo didn't let go, I came to my house and everything was clear."
Chen Wentai was said to be very comfortable.
In fact, he has never been to Lao Mo. Although he said that he was born in a compound, his parents were ordinary people with few connections and were reluctant to bring him to this kind of Western restaurant.
Although his salary is high, his wife doesn't work at home and has three children to raise, so he doesn't dare to spend money lavishly, and he is even more reluctant to go to such a high-cost Western restaurant.
"Brother Chen, I heard that you also participated in the annihilation of the Chopper Team?"
Li Cunxi took the initiative to start the conversation.
"Of course, I am still one of the main force. Those bastards are really lawless. When we went to arrest them, these people also took the guy and opened fire with us in the street. It is simply lawless."
Chen Wentai clearly showed a look of fear.
Li Cunxi actually doesn't care much about whether the Chopper Team is fierce or not. Let alone the 80s, even if society develops in the future, information becomes transparent, and the lawless evil forces are like maggots attached to the bones, they can't be wiped out.
The disgusting things he did were even more disgusting than the robbery and looting of the Chopper Team.
He mentioned the Chopper Team just to bring out the main topic of today.
"I heard that we also have a guy from the chopper team here named Chen Ergou. Do you know that?"
Li Cunxi took advantage of the situation and brought the topic to Chen Ergou.
"He? He's the Chopper Team. He's just a little loser who has been in Tangcheng for a year. He was bullied by the Chopper Team. He came back in a mess and pretended to be the Chopper Team to show off his power."
Chen Wentai's face was full of disdain.
But soon, he changed the topic: "But this kid has brains, never messes with people with backgrounds, and is willing to spend money to build relationships. He borrowed the notoriety of the Chopper Team and became a gangster leader."
"Then he gambles, cheats, and lends money, and the police don't care about it?"
Li Cunxi asked this question because he actually wanted to test Chen Ergou's official relationship.
"No matter what, but there is no evidence. Either someone is helping him to take the blame, or the whistleblower is threatened by him and dare not report it. We can't arrest people for no reason."
Chen Wentai said helplessly.
The waiter brought the food.
Three prawn salads.
Chen Wentai picked up the fork, forked a piece of prawn, nodded slightly, and wanted to fork some more vegetables, but couldn't do it smoothly, and frowned slightly.
Upon seeing this, Li Cunxi put down his knife and fork, slapped the table, and looked at the waiter dissatisfied: "Where are the chopsticks? How can I eat without chopsticks?"
"Sir, we are a Western restaurant, you can use knives and forks."
The waiter explained patiently.
Li Cunxi spat harshly: "Bah, in our countryside forks are only for babies. Do you think I'm a three-year-old baby? Hurry up and get the chopsticks. Don't tell me that you also use knives and forks for work meals. Hurry up and get the chopsticks. Don't tell me." Forcing me to file a complaint against you.”
Chen Wentai borrowed Po Xia's donkey and said: "If you open a restaurant in the Dragon Kingdom, you must follow the rules of the Dragon Kingdom. I will make an exception today. Eat with chopsticks. Hurry up and get the chopsticks."
Jin Wen took out a dollar and handed it to the waiter: "I, Brother Xi, am from the country. I don't like to use knives and forks. Hurry up and get chopsticks. This dollar counts as your tip."
When the waiter saw this, he had to find chopsticks.
Li Cunxi smiled naively and said, "Brother Chen, it worked. I'm from the countryside and I can't get used to foreign guys."
"No matter how many times I've been here, I'm actually not used to it. I just follow the crowd and make do with it."
Chen Wentai's tone was much more friendly.
"Yes, the things made by foreigners are not as good as the chopsticks of our ancestors."
Li Cunxi took the chopsticks from the waiter and handed them to Chen Wentai.
Chen Wentai picked up a mouthful of salad with chopsticks, stuffed it into his mouth, and nodded: "Nothing wrong, chopsticks work better."
Li Cunxi continued the original topic: "If someone records Chen Ergou's conversation about wanting to kidnap someone, and his accomplice testifies, Brother Chen, do you think Chen Ergou can be 100% convicted?"
During the current crackdown, petty thefts are punishable by ten years, and for things like kidnapping, one has to spend twenty years in jail without death.
"It will definitely be possible to convict him. But, people like Chen Ergou are timid and cautious. If you ask him to open a casino and gather people to fight, there is no problem. But for kidnapping, if you lend him a few courages during the period of severe crackdowns, he wouldn't dare. ."
Chen Wentai's impression of Chen Ergou has always remained at the stage of that little gangster who nodded and bowed to him.
