Looking across the entire pedestrian street, Luo Chao imdiately spotted a small restaurant nad Ganwei Pavilion, as at that mont, a number of health departnt law enforcent officers and several middle-aged n in suits were gathered in front of the restaurant.
However, when Luo Chao saw a reporter carrying a cara and another with a microphone, his brow furrowed slightly. He imdiately understood why it was the health departnt conducting the inspection, rather than the health bureau.
The health departnt was using the radio reporters to actually get things done, and unfortunately, Uncle Zhang's restaurant was being used as a typical case to show that these health departnt leaders were leading by example by working on-site, not just staying in the office every day.
Zhang Zhiqiang and i Xi hurried over, and at this mont, a young man in his twenties, with a square face and slightly honest appearance, was arguing with the health departnt officers about sothing.
"Director Xu, you say my restaurant's hygiene is not up to standard. I'd like to ask, where exactly do I fall short?"
Director Xu, wearing thick glasses, was the commissioner of the New District Health Bureau sub-bureau. He adjusted his glasses and said unhurriedly, "Look at the walls and tables in your restaurant, they are so dirty. Do you think they're up to standard or not?"
Luo Chao looked around, given that the place hadn't been renovated for years and had heavy foot traffic, the walls were bound to be a bit dirty. Just a few footprints, is that worth making such a fuss over?
As for the dirty tables, if the tables were dirty, would custors even co in to eat? They might not even have the appetite. Clearly, the tables were not as terrible as Director Xu claid. This was purely nitpicking!
"The hygiene check should mainly focus on the kitchen utensils and foodstuffs," Zhang Chen argued, which annoyed Director Xu. He said sternly: "If I say it's not up to standard, then it's not. Don't you see our Director Du is also here? Do you think he, as a dignified director, would lie?"
With both the bureau director and the director sitting here, Zhang Chen had to consider the consequences of confronting them. However, if the dia reported it, once the restaurant was exposed on TV, the consequences would be disastrous, with absolutely no business.
But offending the director of the health departnt ant you could forget about opening a restaurant in Southeast City. i Xi and Zhang Zhiqiang's family obviously knew the repercussions, but should they just give up the restaurant they've built over the years?
Unwilling to let go, i Xi approached Director Du directly, and said earnestly, "Director Du, if there are hygiene issues with my restaurant, I will definitely make changes. Please don't let the dia report on it, otherwise my restaurant won't be able to bear it."
This small citizen dared to speak to him directly. Just who does she think she is? Director Du furrowed his brow a few tis and said coolly: "If you had known it would co to this, why bother in the first place!"
Clearly, seeking reason from Director Du was also a mistake. The people from the health departnt absolutely wouldn't relent; they needed to set an example to boost their performance.
i Xi's face suddenly turned pale and weak. The saying "Common people cannot fight officials" is a well-known truth. What more could she say? She could only let the people from the health departnt shut down the restaurant for rectification. However, a closure after dia exposure would beco a permanent shutdown.
Zhang Zhiqiang held i Xi's shoulder and said, "Let's just call it bad luck for us. Forget it, we'll find another good spot and open a new restaurant later."
However, how could the young and spirited Zhang Chen take this lying down? Hearing Director Du's words, he imdiately cursed in anger, "You are clearly making baseless accusations, deliberately targeting us."
"Targeting you? Are you even worth it?" Director Xu sneered, thinking to himself that they were just unlucky. When Director Du visited the restaurant, he happened to have invited TV reporters. So, clearly, you must have done sothing immoral in your past life.
Zhang Chen gritted his teeth and said: "You bunch of corrupt officials!"
"Brat, looking for a beating, are you?" Several law enforcent officers from the health departnt suddenly rushed at Zhang Chen, forcibly pushing him to the ground.
Zhang Yufei imdiately rushed over, angrily saying: "What are you doing!"
When the beautiful policewoman appeared, she instantly dazzled everyone with her flawless, delicate pink face, her srising S-shaped curve, her tight denim shorts accentuating her hips, her long, straight legs, and her seductive black stockings. She truly was a sight to behold.
"Beauty, doesn't seem to be your business," one of the officers said flippantly.
Zhang Yufei imdiately flashed her credentials. The officer was a bit surprised, but Director Xu stepped out and said: "Oh, so you're Zhang Yufei, director of the Nanhua District Public Security Bureau of Jiangning City. However, Director Zhang, we are conducting health law enforcent. It doesn't seem to concern the public security bureau, right? Moreover, you, as a director from Jiangning, have stretched your hand to Southeast City, isn't that a bit too far? Are there no public security bureaus in Southeast City?"
"This restaurant is owned by my aunt and uncle," Zhang Yufei said with a frown. Director Xu had no semblance of being an official, behaving more like a street thug, just looking at him made her feel disgusted.
"Is that so," Director Xu laughed lightly, then suddenly turned serious: "But it still needs to be shut down for rectification. Our health departnt is all about seeking truth from facts."
However, as he looked at Zhang Yufei's alluring figure at that mont, Director Xu's mind turned wicked as he whispered: "But we are all provincial officers after all. Of course, I have to give so face. Why don't you invite Director Du and to dinner tonight, and we'll make this a minor issue? What do you think?"
It's worth ntioning that Director Du and Director Xu have used this tactic to take advantage of several attractive business owners in the past.
Splat! But Director Xu was completely unaware of Zhang Yufei's temper. Zhang Yufei slapped him directly across the face, sending his glasses flying as they spun in the air, leaving him stunned.
Seeing Director Xu get slapped, the several health departnt officers imdiately charged at Zhang Yufei. This sight made Zhang Yufei take a step back in fright, as although she was skilled, she wasn't capable of handling that many people at once.
Suddenly, a dark shadow flickered through the air with a loud crack, and the slapping sounds were like firecrackers going off. One by one, all the officers were slapped to the ground, their faces swollen like pig heads.
Even though Luo Chao moved quickly, all of them knew it was him who had done it. The horror was that he actually slapped more than a dozen people!
