Chapter 473 - 473: Unexpected Surprise (3)
“Not bad!”
Zhou Chao was somewhat surprised, but considering Li Wei’s previous work, he wasn’t too amazed.
After about half an hour, they had finished inspecting Zone AB, and Zhou Chao was satisfied with what he saw. Whether it was cleanliness or safety, everything was excellent, and Zhou Chao couldn’t find any major issues.
“Let’s go back to the hotel,” he said as he walked towards the parking lot.
“Boss, aren’t you going to take a look anymore?”
“I won’t look anymore. You can see the whole picture from a glimpse. There’s no need to see the rest. Let’s go.”
Lin Wu and the others exchanged glances and didn’t say much. They followed Zhou Chao as he quickly headed towards the parking lot.
In no time, they saw Xiao Wu driving away from the steel plant.
“I thought I would stay here for a few days, but I didn’t expect to finish everything in just one day.” Zhou Chao stood by the window, looking at the bustling streets outside with his hands behind his back.
“Boss, how about we stay here for a couple of days and try some local specialty dishes?” Lin Wu suggested with a smile.
Zhou Chao turned around to look at Lin Wu and chuckled. “When did you become a foodie, always thinking about eating? Be careful not to become a glutton. By the way, where are Todd and the others now?”
“I’ll ask right away,” Lin Wu said, taking out his phone and sending a few messages. It didn’t take long for him to receive a reply.
Seeing the address, Lin Wu’s face showed a strange expression. He looked at Zhou Chao and said, “Boss, Todd and the others are also in the northeast, but they are at the Lushui River Changbai Mountain Hunting Ground, hunting over there.”
“They have this kind of enthusiasm? Why did they come so far?”
“There’s someone from their group who is originally from this area, so they brought them over to play.”
After a moment of contemplation, Zhou Chao said, “Call Todd and tell him to pack up and come to Fuxing. I want to see him tomorrow.”
“All right, Boss!” Lin Wu immediately made the call and then headed outside.
Zhou Chao turned back to look out the window, muttering to himself, “I wonder when I’ll have the opportunity to go hunting and experience that feeling. I’ve never tried it before. I wonder if it’s exciting.”
Time quickly passed, and it was evening. Li Wei came to the hotel with a thick-skinned face, saying that he wanted to treat Zhou Chao to dinner as a way to express his gratitude for being the matchmaker!
When Zhou Chao heard the reason, he felt like he was about to spit out an 82-year-old vintage wine. However, in the end, Zhou Chao agreed. After all, a good manager like Li Wei was not easy to come by.
At 7 o’clock in the evening, Zhou Chao arrived at the designated location with Lin Wu. Zhou Chao couldn’t help but twitch his lips when he saw that it was just a restaurant hidden in a residential building, and it turned out to be a Fog City hotpot restaurant.
“Boss, I know you’re from Fog City, so I found this hotpot restaurant. It’s said to be the best in the entire Fuxing.”
Hearing Li Wei’s words, Zhou Chao also understood that he had put in some effort.
After they sat down, the dishes were quickly served. Classic ingredients like foie gras and duck intestines were brought to the table in double portions. Looking at the steaming hotpot, Zhou Chao gave a nod, and everyone began to use their chopsticks.
“Li Wei, are you planning to settle down in Jingdu or go back to Peng City?” Zhou Chao asked while dipping a slice of foie gras into the hotpot.
Upon hearing Zhou Chao’s question, Li Wei looked at Wang Lan beside him and smiled, saying, “Boss, I plan to settle down in Jingdu. After all, Wang Lan is from Jingdu, and she’s the only family I have. I don’t want her to be lonely if I go back to Peng City. Wang Lan and I have already discussed it. We’ll save up some more money in the next two years, and then we’ll buy a big house and bring my parents over to live with us.”
“Good! That’s a great plan. You don’t need to worry about the house; 1’11 arrange one for you as a wedding gift.”
“Thank you, Boss!” Li Wei and Wang Lan stood up excitedly, and their voices attracted the attention of other diners nearby.
“Please sit down. Running Fuxing Steel Plant well is the best way to repay me.”
“We will definitely not let you down,” Li Wei said earnestly as he held Wang Lan’s hand and looked at Zhou Chao with gratitude..
