424: Ordered a special dish
“Alright then, you all just focus on organizing the appeal materials. I'll communicate more with Director Zhao of the Ministry of Science and Technology regarding the stumbling block,” Liu Xiaolin said with a smile.
“Alright, everyone to their posts, do your job!” Zhang Sanjian said with a smile, “And right now, our job is to eat! Waiter, we’re ready to order!”
“Lawyer Zhang really should order this dish. He’s a local, he knows what’s good,” Lu Xiaohui said with a smile.
“The moment you say that, I know you’re an amateur. When ordering in Yuhai City, you don’t need to ask what’s good; you only need to ask if there’s anything left un-ordered! Because in Yuhai City’s restaurants, whether they’re large hotels or small, humble eateries, the food all has its own unique characteristics and is incredibly delicious,” Zhang Sanjian said proudly, “We don’t have any bad dishes in Yuhai City! Waiter, bring one of each dish on this page.”
It was Liu Xiaolin’s first time seeing someone order by the entire page!
“This… you’re ordering this whole page without even looking?” Liu Xiaolin asked hesitantly.
“I’ve looked at it. This page is their specialty dishes. They’re delicious and not expensive; it won’t cost you much,” Zhang Sanjian said casually.
“Alright, you win. I can’t argue with you,” Liu Xiaolin shook his head and said helplessly.
The waitress smiled as she took the menu to the kitchen to place the order. It was also her first time seeing a customer order like this.
But when the dishes were brought to the table one by one, Liu Xiaolin realized that this way of ordering wasn’t bad at all! Because every dish was both appealing and delicious!
“It seems I should order this way from now on. It saves so much trouble!” Liu Xiaolin said with a smile as he ate.
“There’s a prerequisite for ordering this way,” Zhang Sanjian said, shaking his head, “Not every place can be ordered from like this.”
“What’s the prerequisite?” Liu Xiaolin asked curiously.
“The prerequisite is that the restaurant’s menu must have an entire page of specialty dishes, haha.” Zhang Sanjian said triumphantly, “I just said that the dishes I ordered on that page are all the restaurant's specialty dishes. Since they’re specialty dishes, they must be dishes that the boss favors and customers approve of, possessing the unique charm of this restaurant. If they have such a page of specialty dishes, it means the taste must be very good, so there’s no need to hesitate; just order the whole page, and that’s it.”
“Then I can switch to a different mode: prioritize specialty dishes when ordering, and then add one or two other dishes as I see fit. Wouldn't that work?” Liu Xiaolin’s mind was still very quick.
“That’s also acceptable. It’s like when we’re handling a case and organizing materials; it’s not just black or white, there’s also a gray area. What do you do in such a situation? You categorize them, of course: one pile for black, one for white, and another for gray,” Su Allen said, “It makes them easier to find when you need them. The gray pile is usually used the most, haha.”
“So that’s how you prepare materials too? It seems we truly are from the same university, maybe even taught by the same teacher. Hahahaha,” Chen Chusheng was amused by Su Allen. 33 Novel Network
“Alright, hurry up and eat. Don’t talk about work while eating. There’ll be plenty to talk about when we work this afternoon,” Wang Luhu was a focused person; he wouldn’t discuss work during meals.
“Wang Lawyer is right. Let’s enjoy the food. There are so many dishes; let’s try to finish them all and join the clean plate campaign,” Zhang Sanjian said with a smile.
“We have work this afternoon, so everyone just proposed not drinking alcohol. Then I’ll raise my teacup to toast everyone,” Liu Xiaolin said, raising his teacup, “For Dr. Hai’s case, we are fated to gather here. For the pursuit of justice, we are sitting here. Therefore, I hope that after this case is completed, we will still be lifelong good friends, lifelong comrades! Here, I wish us an early victory!”
“Mr. Liu spoke so well. We will definitely achieve victory!” Zhang Sanjian also said, raising his teacup.
“Yes, for justice, we must win this difficult appeal case!” Su Allen was no longer joking around; he spoke very seriously at this moment.
“For justice!” Wang Luhu, Chen Chusheng, and Lu Xiaohui all raised their teacups and said in unison!
The six big men were all quite good eaters. The entire page of dishes Zhang Sanjian ordered was mostly eaten, and each of them looked like they could eat more.
“How about we eat at this place again tonight?” Su Allen, who had just finished lunch, started discussing what to eat for dinner.
“You’re so short-sighted. Do you think this is the best food? No! Every restaurant after this one has its own unique characteristics!” Zhang Sanjian said with a smile, “You should look forward to the next one!”
“Are you full? If you are, I’m going to pay the bill!” Liu Xiaolin said, “Then we’ll go back and start working. We can’t waste any more time.”
Liu Xiaolin saw that the Lawyer Team was all assembled, but everyone was discussing what to eat, and no one mentioned work. Of course, he was a little anxious. You won’t move? Then I’ll crack the whip and make you move.
“Mr. Liu, are you rushing us?” Lu Xiaohui said with a smile, “Once we get into work mode, it’s not easy to pull us out to eat!”
“Haha, he doesn’t understand our work mode. Let him be anxious for a while,” Chen Chusheng also laughed.
“No matter what you say, I don’t believe it. Anyway, I still haven’t seen you enter work mode,” Liu Xiaolin said, a little unconvinced.
“Hmm, go pay the bill. You’ve seen our relaxed state for a good while now,” Lu Xiaohui waved his hand and said.
Liu Xiaolin stood up and went to the front desk to pay the bill. The entire page of dishes was ordered, but it wasn’t expensive, totaling just over four hundred yuan.
Returning to the private room, he said, “This place is truly perfect for living. The people are very warm, and food, clothing, housing, and transportation are all inexpensive! I really love it here.”
“Then why don’t you find a girlfriend in Yuhai City and marry into her family? Wouldn’t that work?” Zhang Sanjian said with a smile.
“Why would Mr. Liu need to marry into a family? His luxury car is enough to marry a fairy,” Su Allen said with a smile.
“Luxury car?” Zhang Sanjian was a bit confused because he had only seen Liu Xiaolin driving a small, broken blue car.
“Ah? You don’t know? Mr. Liu has a loves gift no. 1!” Su Allen said with wide eyes, “That car has now been hyped up to fifty million yuan! Just think, with that car in hand, what kind of girlfriend can’t he find?”
“Mr. Liu, you’re really something!” Zhang Sanjian looked at Liu Xiaolin in surprise and said, “I didn’t realize you were so impressive!”
“Hey, it’s just a car, what’s so impressive about it?” Liu Xiaolin was speechless by Su Allen. Why did he have to brag about someone else’s car!
“Let’s go, let’s take another look, and then go upstairs to start working!” Su Allen said, shaking Liu Xiaolin.
