"Thank you!" Xu Qian sincerely thanked Han Qianqian.
"This is the first time I heard you say these two words, but you are not thanking me. I am just an errand boy. Without Director Sun's approval, these documents will definitely not be released."
This was the second time that Sun Fuwang was mentioned in a short period of time. Xu Qian knew in his heart that this was Han Qianqian saying good things for Sun Fuwang. After all, everyone knew that Xu Qian left the headquarters in an extremely unhappy mood that day, and the whole incident The arrangement was made by Sun Fuwang. If Xu Qian had hatred in his heart, it was Sun Fuwang who deserved to be hated the most. As the director of the Special Branch, if Xu Qian is allowed to hold a grudge in his heart, then the Special Branch will ask Xu Qian to do something in the future. Even if Xu Qian still does it, he will not do his best, but will do it perfunctorily.
Han Qianqian established a glorious image for Director Sun in her words just to avoid the estrangement between Xu Qian and the Special Branch.
"Okay, for your sake, I won't care about what happened to Lao Sun that day." Xu Qian looked at the documents. He didn't care about Han Qianqian's face, but obviously because of this pile of documents.
"Don't scream like Lao Sun, Lao Sun. It's so unpleasant." The atmosphere was harmonious, and Han Qianqian was in a good mood.
"What's the point? It's okay if he doesn't call himself that." All Chinese people know who likes to call themselves "my old grandson", and Xu Qian also arranged Sun Fuwang. In fact, he called Sun Fuwang Old Man Sun in his heart, but he was too embarrassed to tell Han Qianqian. Even Qin Zhao of the Tang Empire was just Old Qin to Xu Qian. Why don't you change it again, old Suntou? Lao Qintou?
Xu Qian was very cooperative and joked with Han Qianqian all the way without talking about anything serious. The car drove through twists and turns for about twenty minutes and came to an old alley.
This alley is quite old, and the houses in the alley are also old houses. But no matter how Nanhai is developed, this old alley has not been demolished, because this alley is old enough, and the houses are old enough. They were all built in the Ming Dynasty, and many of them were renovated and rebuilt in the Qing Dynasty. This old alley is The alley is really old, and the whole street has become a cultural relic, so naturally it cannot be demolished.
After Han Qianqian and Xu Qian got out of the car, the driver drove away. As soon as Han Qianqian walked to a wooden door, the wooden door opened by itself.
"Miss Han, please come in." The person who opened the door was an old man, well-dressed, like a housekeeper in a big boss's home.
South China Sea meeting?
As soon as you enter the door, there is a large screen wall with three powerful calligraphy characters on it.
"Nanhai Club is a top membership club in Nanhai. Even if you have money, you may not be able to get in." Han Qianqian knew that Xu Qian was confused and took the initiative to explain to him.
Xu Qian followed him in without knowing anything. Across the front yard was a large living room, a hall that could accommodate forty or fifty people for dining. There was only an Eight Immortals table in the middle. There were only two sets of tableware placed on the Eight Immortals table.
"The Nanhai Club will only receive one group of guests a night. No matter whether the group of guests is dozens of people or one person, as long as they accept it, they will not arrange for two groups of guests who are not together to dine at the same time."
This time I have really experienced a lot, can I still play like this?
"It's just the two of us tonight?" Xu Qian asked knowingly, but also because he thought it was a bit incredible. "If the number of people is small, wouldn't they lose money? Or they simply won't accept orders with small number of people."
Han Qianqian couldn't help but laugh, "Whether there are dozens of people or one person, the price for eating here is the same. Unless the guests have other requirements, they can add additional money."
Money for one person to pay for dozens of people to eat? this is okay too?
Xu Qian has always disagreed with the saying that poverty limits imagination, because he believes that wealth still limits imagination, such as the allusion of "Why not eat minced meat". But in this seemingly inconspicuous Nanhai Club, he did feel that the ceiling of his imagination had been broken through.
"What is this price?" Generally speaking, it is polite not to ask the price when someone invites someone to dinner, but Xu Qian couldn't help it, and he has never been a person who pays attention to rules.
Han Qianqian smiled and said nothing. The two sat down at the Eight Immortals table, and the old man asked softly: "Miss Han, can the food be served?"
"let's go!"
Xu Qian was still calculating the price of the meal. He felt that if it were calculated based on dozens of people, if it cost one thousand per person, it would be tens of thousands. Now the two of them would have to spend tens of thousands to eat. This meal would cost Xu Qian Qian was very heartbroken.
A middle-aged man came out of nowhere and came over with a teapot to pour tea for the two of them.
Han Qianqian said: "It's expensive here, for a reason. Everything here is an antique, such as this table or this teapot. The market value of this Ming Dynasty sandalwood Eight Immortals table alone is over one million ”
Xu Qian subconsciously looked at the Table of the Eight Immortals in front of him. He had read many books, including those on archeology and treasure appraisal. But this kind of thing cannot be seen through reading. Only through practice can we gain true knowledge!
The middle-aged man who poured the tea left, and Han Qianqian deployed a sound barrier technique.
Only then did Xu Qian realize that Han Qianqian was about to enter the topic. In the car just now, Han Qianqian didn't rush to talk. She probably wanted to wait until we got there to talk. If we started talking about business in the car, there was no need to invite Xu Qian to meet in Nanhai. Just go to any restaurant near the Piqiu Apartment. can solve problems. Since I am here to show enough sincerity, of course, Xu Qian also knows that the more sincerity, the less simple things will be.
"Tell me, what are you going to do with me after spending so much money this time?"
Han Qianqian put away her smile and said with a serious face: "Xu Qian, the passage between China and the Orc Continent has also been opened."
What!
Xu Qian was drinking tea. When he heard this, he immediately put down the tea cup.
"When did this happen?"
"Last night, I called you not long after I received the news at noon today."
When he received the news, he called himself. The implication was obvious, he was going to put out the fire by himself during this meal. I have indeed been to the Orc Continent, and may even be the only person in China who has been to the Orc Continent. No, Lin Qiaoni has also been there.
"The passage was suddenly opened, just like the one you experienced in the Tang Dynasty. It was opened in an immortal cultivating village. At that time, the immortal cultivators there thought it was a passage from the Tang Dynasty. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a passage from the Orc Continent. Fortunately, the passage from the Tang Dynasty We must be in front, otherwise we wouldn’t know there is a different world like the Orc Continent.”
"Xiuxian Village? Is there such a village?" Xu Qian heard about Xiuxian Village for the first time.
"Well, China has a long history and a vast territory. There may be some unknown villages hidden in some deep mountains and old forests. Those villages are hidden so deep that even if they are building roads now, they cannot build those places. Even During the war years, the flames of war did not reach those places, which were simply isolated from the world. However, in recent decades, our Special Branch has also shouldered the task of discovering and registering monks across the country, so we searched for these secluded villages. , it’s also our job.”
Xu Qian nodded slightly. Indeed, despite all the infrastructure construction going on everywhere, there are still many truly desolate places. Places that are too remote have no development value at all, and no investors will invest money in such inaccessible places. . It is also possible that some of these places hide secluded villages.
"Fortunately, the strength of that village is not weak. Although it was attacked, it was not massacred. Fortunately, they were one of the immortal cultivating villages discovered by us, so they could contact us in time. They also had an advantage at the beginning. So they didn't plan to notify us. Later, the enemy's reinforcements increased, and they had no choice but to ask for help from the Special Branch. At noon, we had organized the first batch of people to go over, and now the second batch should be arriving soon."
"Now that the situation is under control, why do you still need to find me?"
At this time, the food was served.
"Eat the food first. These are the dishes in Prince Jing's Mansion and cannot be eaten elsewhere." Han Qianqian changed her previous serious look and smiled to greet Xu Qian to eat.
"Then why don't you invite me to eat in Prince Jing's Mansion?"
"Prince Jing's Mansion is a museum, can I let you eat there? It would be great if you can eat in a house built in the Ming Dynasty!" Han Qianqian said with a coy voice, "Everything here is related to history, including people, that one just now The old man is retired from the museum. The middle-aged man serving the tea has a doctorate in history from Nanhai University. The chef in the kitchen is even more powerful, but he is a senior chef who is familiar with the Twenty-Four Histories and specializes in Ming Dynasty Nanhai cuisine. The so-called skill With his specialty, he should be the number one person in the Ming Dynasty Nanhai cuisine."
