Chapter 777 Aura
Although Zhuang Rui is not an old diner, he is also a person who loves to eat. As long as he is in Beijing, he often wanders around the streets and alleys of Brother Yuejing and eats a lot of special dishes from the north.
However, Beijing, like all major cities, can eat not only northern cuisine, but also the cuisine of the eight major cuisines of the world, but also in the modern era of convenient transportation, even the materials are transported by air, which is extremely authentic.
Zuixianlou is a Hunan restaurant. Zhuang Rui has also come with Qin Xuanbing before. He can't forget the Dong'anzi chicken, red simmered shark fin, and soup soaked belly there, but Hunan cuisine is relatively spicy. Qin Xuanbing can't eat more, so Zhuang Rui didn't come back later.
The parking lot of Zuixian Building is very large, which is also the main factor in the business of a hotel. If the taste of the restaurant is good and there is no parking lot, the business will not be much better. On the contrary, even if the taste is average, the parking space is abundant, and the business is generally not too bad.
Although this hotel is called a building, it is actually a bungalow. There are scattered tables in the lobby, and there is a private room in the back. The decoration is very exquisite, and the business is booming. Generally, you can't book a private room when you come late.
"Brother Ren, why don't you go in?"
As soon as Zhuang Rui walked into the restaurant, he found that Ren Chunqiang and the four of them were standing at the place where they paid the bill. Jiang Yi was talking to a person who looked like a manager, and several of them didn't look good.
Ren Chunqiang took a look at Zhuang Rui and whispered, "Xiaozhuang, we're a little late. The box has been occupied. Business is good now, and the private room will not be available for a while..."
Zhuang Rui, the eldest brother, was relatively kind. He didn't say much, but just explained it to Zhuang Rui.
The reason why I came late today is because of Zhuang Rui. Jiang Yi booked a time at 6 o'clock, but it was more than 6 o'clock when he left from school, and now it's almost 7 o'clock. It's natural that the restaurant does not leave a private room.
"Manager Zhang, we will be so late, and there will be no private room. Isn't that too much? They are all regular customers. Please arrange another private room..."
Jiang Yi is from Hunan and likes Hunan cuisine very much. After the opening of this restaurant, he has come to support a lot, and he is familiar with this manager.
In fact, if you just invite Zhuang Rui, it doesn't matter if you eat in the lobby, but it's rare to invite Kan Yuhan today. There is no private room, which makes Dr. Jiang feel lose face.
"Xiao Jiang, it's not that my brother doesn't help, but... Well, you also saw that the lobby is almost full, and the private room has been booked for a long time. I have reserved Yuelu Hall until 6:30. Who knows that you don't arrive until 7:00. There's really nothing you can do. Otherwise, let' >
The manager of the restaurant, which is not an exquisite figure on all sides? In fact, before Jiang Yi arrived at 6:50, the private room was given way. However, Manager Zhang was very polite and had enough face. Suddenly, Jiang Yi couldn't speak, and he was embarrassed to change the restaurant.
It's different where to eat. Zhuang Rui saw that there was an empty table beside him, so he said, "Forget it, let's eat in the lobby, manager, Dong'an chicken, goldfish play lotus, Yongzhou blood duck, preserved steamed, sister, Ningxiang flavor snake, Yueyang ginger spicy snake...
At the way, there is one more red simmered shark fin. You won't get tired of this dish. Well, take two more bottles of Maotai. Miss Kan, do you want to drink or drink?"
Today, Zhuang Rui delayed everyone's meal time. He originally planned to treat this meal. Seeing that Jiang Yi still wanted to linger with the manager, he couldn't help but be a little impatient. At this moment, he simply ordered wine and vegetables directly.
Kan Yuhan was also bored at this station. It was very uncomfortable to be looked at when he came and went. Then he said, "I'll just drink. You should drink less, and you have to drive when you go back..."
"Well, that's it. Let's take a seat..."
Zhuang Rui waved his hand to the manager and said, "Do you have Maotai for eight or two years?"
"Maotai in 1982? No, that kind of Maotai is rare..."
Manager Zhang was shocked by Zhuang Rui's words. You know, Maotai in August 2 has been more than 20 years, and it is rarely seen in the market. It is generally treasured. If you want to buy it, it will cost at least 30,000 yuan.
"Oh, let's take two bottles from 1995. I'm not used to the new Maotai..."
Zhuang Rui is not showing off. The main reason is that he doesn't know what the price of Maotai was in 1982. However, last time Ouyang Jun took five or six bottles and drank them, which tasted good. Later, he drank the new Maotai. He always felt that the taste was not right, so he asked by the way.
"Sir, there is Maotai in 1995, but the price is a little expensive..."
Manager Zhang doesn't look down on Zhuang Rui, but this should be agreed in advance, otherwise the wine after dinner is more expensive than the vegetables. In case the other party doesn't admit it, it's not to make trouble.
"How much is it?" Zhuang Rui casually asked, he is not a person who has a swollen face and pretends to be fat, and he can't be slaughtered if he has a lot of money.
Manager Zhang thought for a moment and said, "Two thousand three/bottle of Maotai in 1995. If you want two bottles, I'll give you a discount, four thousand five..."
"Aply, let's take two bottles first. If it's not enough later, I'll take it..."
Zhuang Rui nodded and casually sent Manager Zhang away. In his opinion, it was very natural, but he was stunned by several doctoral brothers.
If you want to say that this person has an aura, a delicate body shock, and the overlord's anger is pure bullshit. If you let a person who has never seen the President and doesn't know what the President is, go to meet the chairman alone, then he will definitely not feel any aura. Isn't he just a well-maintain
The so-called aura is actually mainly reflected in the conversation. When people interact and talk to each other, the kind of self-confidence that naturally reveals and can infect each other is called the aura.
Just like Zhuang Rui ordering wine and vegetables just now, in the eyes of several doctoral brothers, there is a hint of aura.
At least the conversation between Zhuang Rui and the manager, the east wind definitely overwhelms the west wind. Manager Zhang has always been very modest, while Zhuang Rui is natural, as if it should be like this.
After a few people sat down, Ren Chunqiang said to Zhuang Rui, "Xiaozhuang, we will get along with each other for a long time in the future. We don't have to be so extravagant. One bottle costs thousands of yuan, which is a little too expensive. Although you are not married, you don't have a job. It'
Boss Ren is kind. From what the tutor said before, it can be seen that Zhuang Rui seems to do some business by himself, but Zhuang Rui is young and does not have the habits of those dandy children. The business should not be done much. It costs thousands of yuan for a meal, which makes Ren Chunqiang a little embarrassed.
Among Professor Meng's doctoral students, only Ren Chunqiang got married, and he provided a house in Beijing last year. Although he studied with the teacher for a master's degree and did a project for four or five years, and also saved some money, a house was smashed in, which was compared with the usual money. Save, in front of a few brothers and sisters, there is also a little lack of confidence.
"Brother Ren, you're wrong. I've been married. In a few months, I'll have all my children. Well, it's still dragon and phoenix twins..."
At the mention of this matter, Zhuang Rui looked happy, and regardless of how many people he was familiar with, he was very happy to share his son and daughter.
"Oh? Congratulations, Xiaozhuang, but life in Beijing is very stressful, and you still need to save a little..."
Several people were stunned when they heard the words. Although it is not surprising that undergraduates get married these days, and there are many people who get married and study for a master's degree, there are not many full-time students. Generally, they study while working, which will not be very stressful.
"Hehe, this little money is nothing. I'm late today. When I invite everyone to this meal, I apologize to a few people..."
Zhuang Rui laughed. This senior brother is really a little interesting, and he has the demeanor of a big brother. However, Zhuang Rui usually eats out, and he rarely pays the bill, so it doesn't matter if he occasionally eats for 8,000 yuan.
"It's okay to apologize, but Xiaozhuang, you still need to develop the habit of being punctual in the future. Teachers don't like unpunctual people. If you often do this, it's not easy for us to talk to you...
Moreover, some professors at Peking University have a strange temper. If you are late for class, don't want credits. Xiaozhuang, you'd better pay attention to it in the future..."
As soon as Zhuang Rui's words fell, Jiang Yi's voice sounded. There was a meaning of educating Zhuang Rui in his words. Just now, his heart had been holding it all the time. The reason why he didn't dare to speak was that he was afraid that he would pay for the meal.
You know, although I can do two or three projects with Professor Meng a year, with an income of one or two hundred thousand yuan, Jiang Yi's doctorate has only been studying for more than a year, and that little money has long been taken out to buy a car to support the facade.
Now Jiang Yi has only one or twenty thousand yuan left, and there is no other income. He only a few hundred yuan a month for living expenses. He was asked to pay off five or six thousand yuan for a meal. Dr. Jiang was reluctant to give up, so it was not until Zhuang Rui said that he was his treat that Dr. Jiang became active.
However, what he said was very unspeakable, and Zhuang Rui frowned slightly.
Ren Chunqiang called himself Xiao Zhuang, because he was older than Zhuang Rui, but Jiang Yi was at least two years younger than Zhuang Rui. The old-fashioned small Zhuang made Zhuang Rui feel very uncomfortable.
People can't be arrogant, but they can't be without arrogance. Besides, Zhuang Rui has spoken in the past two years. There is a sense of unspeakable self-confidence between words. With this frown, the atmosphere between the banquet suddenly became a little dull.
"Ha ha, a few people, I study for Mr. Meng's master's degree, just to learn basic theoretical knowledge. It's not very important to me to get a diploma or something..."
Zhuang Rui also felt that he had a stiff face just now and was a little cold. He quickly explained with a smile that he had been working for so many years, and what did he care about with a student who had not yet left school?
