Chapter 855 Drinking with Li Huaide, scale

"No need, Boss, I can do this myself!"

Shen Yulin shook her head and refused. She knew how important her husband's work was and naturally did not want to delay his work.

Zhou Tian heard this, thought about it, and did not force it.

It was late at night and the lights in the house gradually dimmed as the bright moon in the sky shone its clear moonlight.

the next day.

In the office of the Fifth Research Institute, Zhou Tian had just finished processing a document when Liu Yuan walked in from outside.

"Dean, Director Li from the steel mill is here!"

"Director Li, is this Li Huaide?"

Zhou Tian raised his head and asked.

"Yes, director!"

"Then bring him in!"

Zhou Tian thought about it and said.

"Yes!"

Liu Yuan nodded, turned and left the office. After a while, he brought Li Huaide back into the office.

Zhou Tian had put down his pen a long time ago. When he saw Li Huaide coming in, he stood up and greeted him with a smile: "Director Li, I'm sorry. I should have treated you to a meal some time ago, but who would have thought that I forgot about it when things got busy. Please forgive me, please forgive me!"

"President Zhou, you're joking. I just came to your door. How about it? Do you have time today? Let's go out for a drink at noon?"

Li Huaide smiled and waved his hand. As for how much truth there was in this, he didn't care. After all, Zhou Tian's current level was the same as his father-in-law's. Even if others really forgot, he couldn't say anything.

Come to think of it, he might need help from the other party someday. How could he dare to be angry?

"Of course, how about this, it's getting late, how about we leave now?"

Zhou Tian looked at his watch and responded with a smile.

"That's great, let's go!"

As they spoke, the two of them walked towards the two jeeps parked in the middle of the yard, but before leaving he still gave Liu Yuan a few instructions.

The two got in the car, which started, and they drove out of the Fifth Research Institute one after the other.

The two cars drove all the way until they arrived at the door of a slightly shabby state-owned restaurant. The two got out of the car. Seeing Zhou Tian's puzzled face, Li Huaide smiled and said, "President Zhou, don't be fooled by the simplicity of this restaurant, but the chef here is not an ordinary person!"

"Oh, what do you say?"

As his cooking skills became more and more sophisticated, Zhou Tian naturally became more picky about food. Even though Wu Yue'e's cooking skills at home were now no worse than what he had cooked in the past, in his eyes they were still not cooked enough.

Li Huaide is also a food lover, and he knows this. The fact that the other party chose this place as the venue for their dinner party means that this place is indeed outstanding, which has aroused some of his interest.

Upon hearing this, Li Huaide looked around first, then came to Zhou Tian and said, "Dean Zhou, you may not know that the chef here was once the imperial chef for three generations, but later he was involved in a political struggle. Later, his ancestors passed down the ancestral precepts that the younger generation of disciples were no longer allowed to enter the palace. In order to hide their identities, the descendants of this chef finally opened an inconspicuous restaurant in this remote place!"

"But later, with the liberation of the country and the integration of public and private enterprises, this place was also incorporated, and the descendants of the imperial chef were responsible for cooking in the kitchen! So the Sichuan cuisine here is also very authentic."

Listening to Li Huaide talking about the origins of the restaurant and its chef, Zhou Tian couldn't help but become more interested in the chef here, especially when he learned that the other party's specialty was Sichuan cuisine, his eyes suddenly lit up.

Although his cooking skills are now superb, in the final analysis, his cooking skills can be said to be all instilled by the system, and he has very little real communication with some culinary masters.

When he was in Siheyuan before, He Daqing often communicated and consulted with him, and he didn't think it was a big deal. But since his position became higher and higher, the time he spent communicating with the master chef has become less and less.

Now when he heard that the other party was actually a master of Sichuan cuisine, he immediately became interested, and as he spoke, the two of them walked into the restaurant.

When they entered the restaurant, perhaps because it was not yet noon, there were not many people eating. There was only one waiter and two tables of guests in the restaurant. The two of them found an empty table and sat down. Li Huaide then called the waiter to start taking orders.

After skillfully ordering a few traditional Sichuan dishes, the two began chatting.

Although they were talking about trivial matters in life, Zhou Tian could feel that there was always some purpose in Li Huaide's words. For example, he just asked about Zhou Zhiqiu's work plans.

There were even questions like when he was planning to get married, which made Zhou Tian frown slightly and feel a little unhappy in his heart.

"Hey, Director Li, if you have anything to say, just say it. Given our relationship, if I can help, I will definitely help, but if I can't, please forgive me for being unable to do anything!"

Hearing the meaning of Zhou Tian's words, Li Huaide couldn't help but smile awkwardly. Just as he was about to say something else, several dishes were brought out and placed on the table for both of them.

Just as the waiter was about to leave, Li Huaide stopped him and said, "Waiter, do you have any Wuliangye here? If so, give me two bottles!"

"Yes, comrade!"

The waiter responded, walked to the shelf where the drinks were placed, took out two bottles of Wuliangye, and took two cups, then turned around and placed them on the table, then left.

Li Huaide opened a bottle of Wuliangye and poured a glass for Zhou Tian first, then filled his own glass and stood up and said, "President Zhou, it was my fault just now. I will punish myself with a glass!"

He drank it all in one gulp, and then sat down again after finishing it. He said to Zhou Tian: "Dean Zhou, to be honest, the reason why I said so much just now is that I have something to ask you!"

"ask me?"

Zhou Tian looked at Li Huaide in confusion, "Director Li, aren't you the director of the steel mill now? You have a lot of power. Do you have anything to ask me?"

Since the wind blew, Li Huaide suddenly became the director of the Revolutionary Committee of the steel rolling mill. It can be said that apart from the secretary, he is the top leader in the factory. He does not think that there is anything he can do to help him.

Unexpectedly, Li Huaide picked up the wine glass and took another sip, then smiled bitterly and said, "President Zhou, you know my identity. To put it nicely, I am a son-in-law in ancient times, but to put it bluntly, I am a live-in son-in-law. Although I am now the head of the steel rolling mill, the problem is that I am not sure of myself!"

As he spoke, he sighed.

"You should know more about the situation in Sijiu City than I do. I don't want the steel mill to get into chaos, so I took the opportunity to become the director when the wind started blowing. But you also know that in this position, it is inevitable to offend people, so I want to ask Dean Zhou, what do you think of this scale?"

As he spoke, his eyes were filled with worry and hesitation.
