A week later, both Xu Qinglang's noodle shop and Zhou Ze's bookstore will be relocated tomorrow, but Xu Qinglang still opened the noodle shop tonight, saying that he intends to do business here for the last day.
It is hard to leave the homeland, and this noodle shop also carries Xu Qinglang's life for a long time, and even the last time he was with his parents.
If it wasn't for Little Lolita's action, perhaps now Xu Qinglang would still be able to "dinner" with his parents every night, enjoying the warmth of being together as a family.
Zhou Ze's bookstore is already closed, and all the books in the bookstore are packed in boxes, waiting for the truck to come and take them away tomorrow.
With Bai Yingying's powerful labor force and Tang Shi's "controller", the efficiency of packing things is really fast. Boss Zhou, who has recovered more than half of his injuries but is not completely healed, just needs to sit with a teapot in his hand. Drinking tea in the noodle shop next door, it has the style of old landlords and riches.
The old man and the monkey are playing in the shopping mall with no one behind. The monkey and the old man are very close, and one person and one monkey can play together.
There is no forest here, but the empty commercial center behind it is enough for monkeys to gallop and have fun.
Drinking tea, watching the sun go down gradually outside, Xu Qinglang sat there looking at his phone, he couldn't see much sadness, and of course there couldn't be much joy either.
Fortunately, at this time, a guest finally came to the door.
This is the first guest today,
Not surprisingly,
This will also be the last guest today.
After Zhou Ze took a taxi last time and asked the driver to find him a dirty place, but the driver drove here, the little bit of popularity that was left here has long been wiped out.
People who would have passed by here on the way to work or after get off work, also chose to divert and detour.
This is also the reason why Zhou Ze decided to move.
The visitor was wearing a suit, but his hair was disheveled, and the suit was a little dirty. He didn't look like an office worker, but more like a jobless vagrant, but the suit itself was expensive.
"What to eat?" Xu Qinglang got up and asked.
"Stir fry a few special dishes, and have a bottle of Snowflake, and I want it iced."
"good."
Xu Qinglang got him a beer first and went to the kitchen to cook.
The other party was sitting opposite Zhou Ze, across the aisle.
The other party glanced at the noodle shop and said:
"Are you going to move?"
"See it?" Zhou Ze was a little surprised.
"It can be seen that it has just been cleaned, and who wants to clean it so meticulously when opening a shop in this place where the birds don't shit, it looks like it is ready to move out."
The man took out a cigarette, lit it, and shook the ashes on the dining table.
After a while, Xu Qinglang came over with the first dish. The other party looked at the dishes, shook his head, and said:
"Boss, the dishes you cook are really not as good as yours."
"Let's eat your meal." Xu Qinglang replied neither salty nor weak.
This is the temper that a man with more than twenty houses does business with.
The man picked up the chopsticks and took a bite, then spat it out, "This dish is not cooked carefully, it's not authentic."
Xu Qinglang had already returned to the kitchen to cook another dish, so he didn't hear the man talking to himself.
"I think his craftsmanship is not bad." Zhou Ze said.
"Not bad?" The man stretched out his hand and patted the table lightly, "It's not bad to cook a dish or cook a meal for fun?"
After finishing speaking, the man bit open the beer cap with his teeth, took a big gulp of "gudu gudu", and said: "After eating, it looks like it's not bad for money. Master who cooks and experiences life, this dish is well done, with a little sincerity nothing."
"It's hard to find a restaurant with sincerity."
"Hey, what's the relationship between you two? I said his food is not good. Why are you targeting me all of a sudden?"
The man pointed to Zhou Ze, then pointed to the kitchen, and smiled silently,
"Yo, there are tricks, there are tricks."
Zhou Ze was too lazy to talk to this guy. The reason why he struck up a conversation with him before was because this guy looked familiar, as if he had met him somewhere before.
Of course, it should be a matter of my previous life.
"Disgusting? Do you think I'm disgusting? Disgusting people live more comfortably, and I think your life must not be so comfortable. Sitting there with a cup of tea looks very self-cultivating, but it's also a People who like to meddle in their own business.
People, as long as you like to meddle in your own business, you can't live comfortably"This guy must be out of his mind." Xu Qinglang said while clearing the dining table, "Forget it, the door is closed, and I will make coffee and pastries in the future."
"He was very powerful, before." Zhou Ze said.
"You admire him so much?"
"It's not admiration. All walks of life can achieve the top level in a region, and it's still in Shanghai. They are indeed capable people.
Do you know which is his most famous case? "
"Just tell me."
"A juvenile burglary murder case, under the premise that the prosecution has a lot of evidence, because the suspect's family paid a lot of money to hire him as a defense lawyer,
In the end, he really succeeded in winning the lawsuit, and the suspect was acquitted. "
"Then did that child kill someone?" Xu Qinglang asked.
Zhou Ze hesitated for a moment, but still nodded, "It should be killed."
"This kind of person who is open to money can still survive in the industry?"
"It will only get better, because local tyrants and big companies need lawyers who can help them win lawsuits and protect their own interests, not lawyers who only speak conscience."
"I understand this truth." Xu Qinglang stretched his waist, and then pointed curiously at the back of the drinking maniac walking away outside, saying:
"Then why did this guy become such a fool, and even ran to the door to persuade us to file a lawsuit against him?"
Zhou Ze took a sip of tea,
Slowly said:
"The minor who was acquitted later broke into the house and murdered again.
