Chapter 1925 Are they the distinguished guests you mentioned?
Pi Yangyang felt both surprised and touched.
It can be seen that Geng Zhonghua is a man of temperament and is very decisive in making decisions.
"President Geng, this isn't a good idea, is it?" Pi Yangyang said hesitantly, "After all, they've already made an appointment..."
Geng Zhonghua waved his hand and said, "It's okay. This isn't the first time he's come to me. He wants to understand the situation of our Huaxia Company so he can find specific opportunities for cooperation."
"Oh, I'm glad you're okay." Pi Yangyang nodded.
Since Geng Zhonghua didn't care, he certainly wouldn't say anything else.
"Xiao Liu, go make some arrangements and call Master Zhong. Tell him I have a distinguished guest and ask him to personally prepare some Chunan dishes for lunch."
Geng Zhonghua smiled and said to the young man beside him.
Pi Yangyang was a little surprised and said, "President Geng knows that I'm from Chu Nan?"
"People from Chunan speak Mandarin with a distinct accent. I traveled extensively when I was young and am familiar with accents from all over the country. As soon as Mr. Pi opened his mouth, I guessed it. If I'm not mistaken, you should be from the Qingjiang area, right?"
Geng Zhonghua said very confidently.
Pi Yangyang couldn't help but say with admiration: "Yes, I did grow up in Qingjiang."
Xiao Liu went to call Master Zhong to ask him to prepare the dishes, while Geng Zhonghua stayed behind to chat with Pi Yangyang and others while drinking tea.
…………
At the same time, in another luxurious villa, Miyazaki Guanghua, who had just answered a call from Xiao Liu, looked very unhappy.
Beside him stood a young woman in a kimono, who asked suspiciously, "Miyazaki-kun, what happened?"
Miyazaki Guanghua gritted his teeth and said with some resentment, "Geng Zhonghua has rejected my invitation again! This is the third time!"
The woman said hesitantly, "He has always been unfriendly to us J people. Maybe... he doesn't want to help you at all."
"Hmph, a mere Chamber of Commerce president dares to be so arrogant in front of me!" Miyazaki Guanghua said fiercely, "I want to see today who he is rejecting me for."
"What...what do you want to do?" the woman asked in surprise.
A hint of coldness flashed in Miyazaki Guanghua's eyes. "I know where he will go to eat. I must see him today no matter what."
The woman said in astonishment, "Aren't you not used to Chinese food?"
"As long as I can see him, I have to eat even if I'm not used to it."
Miyazaki Guanghua had obviously made up his mind to meet Geng Zhonghua today no matter what.
The woman was obviously a little hesitant. "Does it really have to be like this?"
"It has to be this way. I can't wait any longer!" Miyazaki Guanghua said coldly, "Father has already begun testing us. Whether I can successfully take over his business depends on whether I can pass the test and produce results that satisfy him! At the very least, I can't lose to that illegitimate child no matter what!"
The woman's expression changed slightly. "Are you saying that Father plans to have him participate in this test as well?"
"Although he didn't say it explicitly, we all know it." Miyazaki Guanghua said affirmatively, "Otherwise, father wouldn't be so supportive of him recently!"
"I understand!" The woman nodded. "The family business must be inherited by you! How can he, an illegitimate child, have the right to compete with you for it?"
A fierce glint flashed in Miyazaki Guanghua's eyes, and he said solemnly, "Go, call Sanzhongye and Segawa Shenhe, and we'll go to the Chinese restaurant right away!"
The woman quickly went to the sofa and made a phone call to call someone for him.
…………
At noon, Pi Yangyang, Chu Ge and others followed Geng Zhonghua, Xiao Liu, and a vice president of the Chamber of Commerce named Zhao Mingli to a restaurant not far from the Chamber of Commerce.
This restaurant looks very ordinary, a bit like those fly restaurants in China.
The only difference is its large scale, with ten storefronts. You can see the layout of the restaurant through the glass from the outside.
It's an old signboard with a very Chinese character.
"Chinese Home..."
This time, Tie Niu did not admit his mistake.
"Yes, this restaurant was founded by Chinese workers who came from overseas during the previous dynasty. It's been almost two hundred years since then. It has now become a place where Chinese people gather for meals. Here, you can enjoy both northern and southern Chinese cuisine, which has alleviated the homesickness of many Chinese wanderers who have drifted here."
Geng Zhonghua pointed to the sign and introduced it.
Pi Yangyang nodded. He had some knowledge about the history of Chinese people leaving their homes and coming to the U.S. to work.
In order to build the North-South Railway, many Chinese people were buried in a foreign land.
It can be said that every sleeper on this railway is stained with the blood of Chinese people.
Just as they were about to enter the restaurant, a cheerful voice rang out, "President Geng, the private room is reserved for you. Please come in."
Pi Yangyang looked up and saw a middle-aged man in his forties standing at the door with a smile on his face.
"Master Zhong, you're not cooking, so why are you standing here as a doorman?"
Geng Zhonghua laughed and said jokingly.
It can be seen that these two people are not only very familiar with each other, but also have a good relationship.
"Don't worry, I've prepared all the dishes Xiao Liu asked me to prepare. I won't delay your entertaining of the guests."
Master Zhong replied.
"Thank you for your hard work, Master Zhong." Geng Zhonghua patted Master Zhong on the shoulder gently and then went into the restaurant.
It was still some time before lunchtime, but there were already quite a few people sitting in the hall, making it seem quite lively.
Arriving at the private room on the second floor, Geng Zhonghua asked Pi Yangyang and the others to sit down, and then said to the waiter, "Get us a bottle of Maotai tea. We'll have some for lunch today."
The waiter agreed and went to make arrangements.
"This restaurant was founded by Master Zhong's great-grandfather. In the beginning, he carried two large baskets and sold wontons all over the street. Later, he rented a storefront and stabilized the business. Now, the restaurant building is his family's..."
Geng Zhonghua introduced the origin of this store.
Pi Yangyang smiled and said, "It can be seen that Master Zhong is a very pragmatic person. Even though he is such a big boss, he still cooks himself."
Xiao Liu couldn't help but say, "That's because President Geng is here. It's impossible for ordinary people to ask him to be the chef."
"Chef Zhong cooks very authentic Chunan cuisine, which you really can't find anywhere else."
Geng Zhonghua said with appreciation.
Soon, the waiter started serving the food.
Looking at the dozen or so dishes on the table, Pi Yangyang couldn't help but say sincerely, "Let's not talk about the taste first. Just the color and aroma alone can confirm that Chef Zhong's cooking skills are indeed good."
Xiao Liu opened the wine and poured it for them all.
"Mr. Pi, first of all, welcome to the Chinese Chamber of Commerce. Secondly, I want to use this glass of wine to thank you for your 'Xiaoye Xuekang' that saved my daughter."
Geng Zhonghua raised his wine glass and spoke earnestly.
Pi Yangyang clinked glasses with him and said, "I'll still be relying on President Geng in the future. This second glass should be for you."
Unexpectedly, just as I picked up the cup, the door of the private room was suddenly pushed open.
Then, three young men appeared at the door.
They did not rush in, but stood at the door and glanced coldly at Geng Zhonghua, Pi Yangyang and others.
Seeing these people, Geng Zhonghua's expression changed slightly, and a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes.
The one walking in front was Mitsuka Miyazaki.
The other two are Mieha and Segawa Kamikawa.
Miyazaki Guanghua's gaze finally locked on Geng Zhonghua, and he slowly walked over.
"President Geng, excuse me!"
Miyazaki Mitsuka's Chinese is a bit stiff and his tone is a bit cold.
Geng Zhonghua was obviously furious, but he controlled himself and didn't lose his temper. He slowly put down his wine glass, looked at Miyazaki Guanghua and said, "Mr. Miyazaki, isn't it a bit rude of you to do this?"
Miyazaki Guanghua's mouth twitched, and he said in a cold tone, "President Geng, this is the third time I've asked you to meet, but you've still avoided me. You Chinese have a saying, 'Third time is better than last time.' If President Geng thinks I'm being impolite, then, President Geng, is this polite of you?"
Xiao Liu's face suddenly changed and he was about to stand up and scold.
Geng Zhonghua quickly reached out to stop him and said calmly, "Xiao Liu should have told you that I have a distinguished guest today. Let's reschedule."
Miyazaki Guanghua looked at Pi Yangyang and Chu Ge coldly, and said disdainfully: "Are they the distinguished guests you mentioned?"
