But whatever the case, the mysterious man didn’t object to Hong Dali calling him Grandpa.
Everything that Hong Dali did, if it was carefully analyzed, seed to hold so kind of special aning. Although it was unclear what aning it had now, it might have so aning in the future. Therefore, the mysterious man didn’t object to Hong Dali’s words.
At this ti, since everyone was already here, what was left was to start the al. It was a custom of Heavenly State to discuss matters on the table while eating. It would be best if they could drink so alcohol...
“Wu Di, ask the boss the co in. Let’s eat while we talk.” The mysterious man smilingly instructed the Bureau Chief. “I didn’t eat a lot today, so I am quite hungry now.”
Hong Dali raised both his hands in agreent. “I’m hungry, too. I didn’t eat since yesterday night for this al!”
This little rascal. The mysterious man couldn’t help but chuckle and said, “Alright, you can eat as much as you want today!”
“This little rascal really has no courtesy.” An Yangxu mumbled, “He actually speaks to you in this manner, boss. If it was , I would already have slapped him to death.”
“Dali’s character is just like this, carefree and happy. I like how he is now—not scheming. I don’t have to consider too much when I am with him.” The mysterious man sighed. “I have to pit wits and intelligence with people outside every day. if I have to do that even now when I am eating, that would be too tiring.”
“Exactly. You need to be like , then you will feel happy every day!” Hong Dali grinned, not self-conscious about facing the leader of the Nation at all. “Grandpa Mysterious really understands , hehe.”
By this ti, the restaurant boss had co in. Once he saw the mysterious man, he was imdiately shocked to the point of peeing his pants. “You... You... Sir...”
He had thought of who was coming for the whole day. He knew it was definitely so important personal when Hong Dali ca and thought it was Hong Dali. After a while, An Yangxu this important military personal ca too, then he thought that person was An Yangxu. But just a short while later, the leader of the Nation actually ca. God, was his ancestors’ grave giving off green smoke 1!?
Although shouting “Dali Creates Miracles” had always been very useful, the effect was too ferocious today, wasn’t it? Even the leader of the Nation actually ca?
Therefore, the restaurant boss thought he was still dreaming. This was so frightening!
“Little rascal, what do you want to eat?” The mysterious man looked at Hong Dali and smilingly asked. The more he looked at this super lucky little prodigal, the more he liked him. Although this fellow didn’t care about a lot of other stuff and lived very carefreely normally, his luck was quite good. And the most important thing was that his moral quality was very good. Although he looked silly and carefree on the outside, he was actually very quick-witted and cared about others.
“? I’m really quite hungry now...” Hong Dali turned around and looked at his lackeys. “Bring 15 KG’s worth of pie here first for everyone to eat, then bring 30 to 40 small dishes—put so on every table.” Hong Dali wasn’t courteous at all, ordering 15 KG of pie imdiately.
The Bureau Chief’s had already buried his head in the table from embarrassnt. “Little rascal, are you a pig? Ordering 15 KG of pie from the start? Be careful that you will be stuffed to death!”
The mysterious man stared in bewildernt, and everyone else was astonished too. The restaurant boss felt like dying now—he didn’t prepare so much pie fillings, who would expect Hong Dali to order so much? Had anyone seen soone ordering 15 KG of pie when eating with a high-ranking personal?
Hong Dali was instead quite calm. “Even this much is not really enough for . Uncle Chief, look, I have ten plus people here, Grandpa An has ten plus people too, Grandpa Mysterious also has ten plus bodyguards. There’s... 10, 20, 30, 40... There are 40 plus people here. It isn’t a problem eating 15 KG worth of pies, I can eat half a KG myself!”
Hearing his words, even the soldiers that An Yangxu brought couldn’t help but laugh.
The Bureau Chief directly buried his head on the table and ignored this little rascal!
This little fellow was indeed like what the rumors said, he knew how to show consideration to others. As long as soone didn’t go against him fully, this fellow wouldn’t keep holding on to a grudge. Of course, if they really had a grudge with each other, this fellow normally retaliated on the spot...
But whatever the case, the mysterious man was the leader of the Nation, after all. His psychological quality was different from the rest. He smiled and said, “Follow what he said, how much will it cost?”
“Ah? No need, no need. You ca here personally, how would I dare to take your money?” The restaurant boss’ head was full of sweat. He could take anyone’s money but not the mysterious man’s—other things aside, other people probably wouldn’t be able to invite him over even if they paid money! This was the leader of the Nation, his signatures were for those projects that were worth billions. Because of Hong Dali’s fortune, the mysterious man ca to his shop today, this was practically having sothing good dropping on him from the Heavens, how would he still be able to ask for money?
“What’s there to be afraid here, we are eating off the rich today. This Grandpa Mysterious has lots of money, anyway.” Hong Dali instilled courage in the restaurant boss. “Grandpa Mysterious is treating us today. If you don’t take his money, that will an you are treating us instead!”
This little rascal ... The mysterious man smiled and glanced at Hong Dali. Who said that Hong Dali was a fool? He was obviously smarter than a monkey!
To be honest, it was very normal for the restaurant boss to not collect money when the mysterious man ca here to eat. Not only here, wherever the mysterious man went to eat, who would dare to collect money from him?
But Hong Dali’s words were very clear—the mysterious man was treating today, that ant he definitely had to spend the money, and he would have to spend generously at that!
Being able to beco the leader of the Nation, he wasn’t an ordinary person. The mysterious man laughed and said, “As governnt officials, we mustn’t take advantage of the commoners. Naturally, I, even more, mustn’t take advantage of you, restaurant boss.” Saying so, he took out 500 yuan and stuffed it directly into the restaurant boss’ hand. “Take this first, I will pay more if this is not enough. Oh right, bring so alcohol, too. Just the normal ones will do, just bring so triple-stead sorghum wine here!”
“You... This...” As expected, seeing the mysterious man’s action, the restaurant boss was so touched that he almost cried. What a good leader this was, he really didn’t take anything from the commoners at all, didn’t take any advantage of them!
“O... OK.” The restaurant boss took the money with trembling hands, filled with gratitude, and went down to make arrangents.
An Yangxu was amused by Hong Dali, and his words now weren’t as hot as before. “Little rascal, you do have so eye power. If you didn’t speak up, this restaurant boss might really not dare to keep the money.” Since there was a turn of events now, this little rascal didn’t seem to be as annoying as before...
“Huh? Really?” Hong Dali stared his eyes wide. “It was agreed that whoever was the one treating would be the one paying, this is the common rule!”
“Little rascal.” The mysterious man was amused. “Pretend, continue to pretend!”
“Oh my, Grandpa Mysterious, I have caused you to spend quite a bit, please don’t take revenge on !” Hong Dali laughed thoughtlessly and said, “But don’t worry, I promise I will earn them back for you in the future!”
His words didn’t seem very logical, but the mysterious man understood what he ant.
This little rascal seed to do things quite thoughtlessly, but his mind was very bright. Hong Dali knew what the mysterious man wanted to see him for. The mysterious man instantly smiled and said, “With these words of yours, this treat isn’t in vain, hehe.”
“Hehe, I’m only doing average. I will just maintain progress in all aspects.” Hong Dali grinned and said, “Grandpa Mysterious, what matter are you finding for? There’s probably sothing else other than the chanical Holy Garnt, right? Why not be more specific?”
This Grandpa Mysterious wasn’t soone who had a lot of free ti. He would have to plan his schedule in advance for anything. It was impossible for such an important person to invite Hong Dali for a al to just talk about the chanical Holy Garnt.
“Actually, it isn’t sothing major. But it isn’t sothing minor, either.” The mysterious man looked left and right to ensure there weren’t any outsiders around before softly saying, “I want to give you a holiday and take you out with sowhere.”
“Huh? Go out with you? Where?” Hong Dali could guess what kind of identity this person had even without watching the news. However, he didn’t felt anything special about it because he was just a prodigal, after all. There wasn’t any law that said squandering was illegal, right?
“rika.” The mysterious man smiled. “15th of September, I’m going to rika for a visit. How is it, do you want to go with ?”
Hong Dali stared his eyes wide and asked, “This is a big matter. A prodigal like going with you, isn’t this... unsuitable? What am I supposed to do there? You know , I’m not soone who can just stay in one place and do nothing...”
As expected, once Hong Dali finished with his words, An Yangxu also asked, “Boss, this Little rascal lives thoughtlessly every day. Although he probably wouldn’t be in danger going there, I am afraid that he would be scamd! What if those fellows from rika make a bet with him to purposely win the chanical Holy Garnt or sothing...” This old fellow was still thinking about this matter. But honestly speaking, what he said was quite probable!
rika was really red-eyed towards the chanical Holy Garnt’s prowess and even went to the extent of faking one. If Hong Dali really went over, who knew what would happen? Wouldn’t there be nurous traps be laying in wait for him!?”
“He can do anything he wants there.” The mysterious man was instead quite confident towards Hong Dali and didn’t mind at all. “As long as you aren’t in physical danger, anything else is just a small matter.”
“In that so, this is a lot of pressure.” Hong Dali sniffled. “Just one al and you want to go to rika with you. This price... It’s about enough, but are you really sure I can go with you? You are not afraid that I will throw the Nation’s face?”
“What do you think?” The mysterious man smiled and looked at Hong Dali. “I don’t think you are an idiot who wouldn’t look at the circumstances and do stupid things.”
“This...” Hong Dali touched his chin. To be honest, this Grandpa Mysterious wanted him to go with him to rika for probably two reasons. The first was for his chanical Holy Garnt, to bring over to rika to show those idiots who faked it what the real one was capable of. The other was to borrow his luck. The first reason was probably not very important, but the second reason was likely the real motive.
“When we are there, you can go around visiting and buy so souvenirs and such.” The mysterious man said, “Just don’t do sothing that will throw the Nation’s face.”
Therefore, Hong Dali very naturally asked a question that was very aligned with his character: “Then... can I squander? Is this considered to be throwing the face of the Nation?”
