Lu Ming asked everyone to sit down and talk. Because it was a suite, there were sofas and coffee tables inside and outside, so although there were many people, there was room to sit. The living room outside was large enough to accommodate a large dining table.

After a while, Liao Zhengwen personally brought several waiters to deliver two iced watermelons and other fruits, one waiter carried a bucket of ice cubes, and two waiters carried a box of juice and beer.

"Hello ladies, my old Liao greets all ladies." Liao Zhengwen bowed and bowed as soon as he entered the room.

Liao Zhengwen used to do business in Shanghai, and was later sent by Du Yuesheng to take charge of the Jinling Hotel, so he also knew Sheng Muyi and others.

"Old Liao, I heard that you have grown up in the past two years, and you seem to be more energetic than you were two years ago." Sheng Muyi laughed.

"Oh, my eldest lady, others don't know that you don't know. I just work for the boss to have a living. Where can I get rich? Someday the eldest lady rewards me for doing something, and my old Liao will really send it to me." It's gone." Liao Zhengwen's tongue skills have been practiced.

"Okay, Lao Liao, we are all our own people, who doesn't know who, you don't have to cry poorly with us. Running between Shanghai and Nanjing, how can it be for nothing." Yuan Ziyuan said bluntly.

"Miss Yuan, I'm not crying poor, I'm really a guy who works for others. Oh, isn't this Inspector Zhang? I didn't see you just now, so I greet you." Liao Zhengwen bowed again and said.

Zhang Ziyang said with a smile: "Old Liao, don't cry with me about being poor, I am really poor. Haha."

"Just kidding, you are Master Lu's brother, no matter how hard you are, I can't let you be poor, right? I'm right, Master Lu." Liao Zhengwen giggled.

"Okay, stop talking, hurry up and get us a table of delicious food, we haven't had lunch yet." Sheng Muyi waved her hand.

"You haven't eaten lunch yet? Then I'm going to go right away. Ladies and Inspector Zhang, you can order whatever you want. I will treat you to Lao Liao today." Liao Zhengwen said with a smile.

"Forget it, you don't need to invite. If you treat your guests later, you will have to reimburse Boss Du, and we still owe Boss Du a favor." Sheng Muyi said.

"Old Liao, let me order some casually first." Lu Ming said with a smile.

Lu Ming has been eating in different ways these days. The master chef of Jinling Hotel cooks which dishes are good and which dishes are not.

There are no gourmets among the people here, and they don't pay much attention to food, and where they usually go to eat, the chefs are hired at high prices, and they all have unique skills. Of course, their cooking skills are not bad.

"The salted duck at Jinling Hotel is a must. You can try it. There is really no such delicious salted duck in Shanghai." Lu Ming said, licking his lips.

"Isn't it just a salted duck? Whoever makes it tastes the same." Yuan Ziyuan didn't believe it.

"It's really different. I didn't know until I tasted it. The master chef in Shanghai is good at making sweet dishes, but not as good at making salty dishes." Lu Ming seemed to have a gourmet experience.

"Master Lu, with your words, the 500 yuan per month I hired a chef is not in vain." Liao Zhengwen said with emotion as if he had met a bosom friend.

"500 yuan per month? Such an expensive chef." Sheng Muyi said in surprise.

Lingering Garden is also very particular about eating and drinking, and the monthly salary for the chef is only 300 yuan, which is already considered high.

"Five hundred oceans is really worth it, just for his salted duck dish. Lao Liao, if you, a chef, want to go to Shanghai someday, you can call me." Lu Ming said.

"You also want to hire a chef?" Liao Zhengwen asked.

"Do I have a family, what kind of chef do I hire, I want to introduce him to a good place to let his salted duck show his skills in Shanghai." Lu Ming laughed.

Nanjing’s salted duck is well-known. Lu Ming didn’t care about it before, but this time he is really addicted to eating it. Of course, other dishes are also good.

Lu Ming even felt that the dishes cooked by this chef were better than the Chinese restaurant in Shanghai Huamao Hotel. He will get married in the second half of the year, and he will have to hire a chef at that time, so he might as well pay attention first.

"Okay, as long as he doesn't want to work with me anymore, I'll definitely recommend him to you." Liao Zhengwen said.

It is not the waiters and waiters who change the most frequently in the restaurant, but the chef.

A chef has his own temper, and it is very important whether a restaurant has his temper.If it is right, his craftsmanship will get better and better. If it is not right, his craftsmanship will decline, and he has to leave.

After Liao Zhengwen left, everyone began to cut up the watermelon and eat it.

Eating iced watermelon in this weather is simply the most beautiful enjoyment, and the juices served are also iced.

In summer, Jinling Hotel does not use a refrigerator to chill these fruit beers, but uses a deep well to put the wine and fruits in a big basket, and then hang them in the cold well water to freeze them. It's better if it's iced in the fridge.

As the most luxurious hotel in Nanjing, Jinling Hotel also has a refrigerator, and the ice cubes delivered are made by imported special ice machines.

"Lu Ming, I didn't expect Lao Liao to be well-off now. When you just came back from abroad, others followed your buttocks. I really didn't expect him to be where he is today." Zhang Ziyang said.

"People's wealth is like this. When the opportunity comes, it will come as soon as it is said. If the opportunity is not available, it may not be able to wait for a lifetime." Lu Ming shook his head and smiled wryly.

It's ashamed to say that when he just came back from abroad, Liao Zhengwen tried his best to curry favor with him, and also wanted to make a fortune from him, but unfortunately Lu Ming had no interest in money at all, so Liao Zhengwen followed him just to eat and drink.

Later, by chance, he ran errands for Du Yuesheng, and things went well. From then on, he followed Mr. Du, and became famous in less than two years.

Sheng Muyi's heart is as delicate as silk, and she has been observing Lu Ming since entering the house. She is still worried about Lu Ming. If Lu Ming does not return to Shanghai for a day, the matter will not end.

Of all the people, only she knew the cause and result of hijacking the arsenal, and Sheng Youde was also kept in the dark.

Sheng Muyi didn't know whether Lu Ming's aftermath work was done seamlessly, let alone the specific circumstances of Lu Ming's being brought to Nanjing.

The key is how much information Nanjing has, and whether Jin Jiu can keep the secret.These are what Sheng Muyi is worried about, as long as one of them is penetrated, something unexpected will happen to Lu Ming.

Sheng Youde told her every day that Lu Ming would not be in any danger, but why did Mr. Jiang keep him in custody?

She was also worried that food and salt would bring great risks, but Dai Li personally went to Shanghai to check with Sheng's and there was no movement.

She still hasn't fully figured out how Lu Ming works in this arms case. Lu Ming didn't tell her in detail beforehand, but when she knew about the arms case, she fully understood.

The nature of the arms case is the same as that of transporting food and salt, and they are all providing the most urgent help to the Communist Party.

Of course, she knew it and she knew it, she didn't tell anyone, she didn't even mention it to Guo Songtao who talked about everything.

She came this time because she wanted to take the opportunity to have a good talk with Lu Ming about this matter, otherwise she really couldn't feel at ease.

Everyone ate watermelon and drank fruit juice, while Zhang Ziyang and Lu Ming drank cold beer.

Everyone casually talked about some things that happened in Shanghai in the past ten days. They were nothing more than small things. If there were any big things, Lu Ming had already learned about them in the newspapers.

"By the way, Lu Ming, I got top-secret news. It seems to be the case you solved last time, that is, people from the underground party and city working committee who were expelled from Shanghai have returned to Shanghai." Zhang Ziyang pretended to be mysterious. typical.

"They returned to Shanghai again? When did it happen?" Lu Ming was really shocked by this sentence.

"In the past two days, he must have arrived in Shanghai. We have received information, but we don't know where the base is located." Zhang Ziyang paid attention to this matter because he felt that it had something to do with Lu Ming.

Not only Lu Ming, but Sheng Muyi was also shocked.

Sheng Muyi also knew about the case of the Shanghai Underground Party and City Working Committee last time, but she didn't know that those people were notified by Lu Ming in advance, and they all evacuated safely.

Both of them felt uneasy. It was too dangerous for the Shanghai Underground Party and Municipal Working Committee to return to Shanghai now.

In addition, will An Yi be unable to stay and run out to meet the people from the underground party and city working committee?If An Yi is arrested, his risk factor in Nanjing will immediately rise.

Thinking of this, Lu Ming couldn't sit still.
