"This is the Flower City. We will take a bus to Xiangjiang later. We will have dinner here before we talk." He Chengyu was very polite to Chang Xing and teased Chang Qing from time to time.
Chang Xing nodded and looked around. Compared with Donghai, Huacheng lags far behind. The houses are also much lower. The streets are narrow and gray everywhere. Cars pass through the streets, raising the sky.
dust.
From the moment he got off the plane, someone was there to greet him. It was obvious that He Chengyu's identity was indeed extraordinary. He was taken seriously wherever he went.
Along the way, police cars cleared the way, and several black cars formed a small convoy, which was so majestic along the way. People who saw it thought some big boss was coming to inspect.
The car stopped at the Provincial Guest House in Huacheng, where important leaders of Huacheng were already waiting. When He Chengyu got out of the car, he immediately greeted him and shook hands warmly.
"Mr. He, you have worked hard." A cadre in a Chinese tunic suit held He Chengyu's hand tightly and said enthusiastically.
"Mayor Ma, hello, hello," He Chengyu said.
"Mr. He, I have admired him for a long time. I am lucky enough to meet him today. He is indeed extraordinary." Mayor Ma said with a compliment.
He Chengyu laughed loudly: "It's such a ridiculous compliment, He is too embarrassed to deserve it."
"That's right. Mr. He, the city government has prepared the wine, and I would like to ask Mr. He to show your face." Mayor Ma was still smiling.
"I'm very grateful to Huacheng for being so kind. However, He just got off the plane and was disheveled. He should go to the hotel to shower and change clothes before going to Mayor Ma's banquet." He Chengyu actually didn't want to eat this meal at all. The current situation in the mainland made He Chengyu very sad.
Helpless. These officials all took advantage of the opportunity to entertain foreign guests and drank heavily. Drinking was like drinking water. He Chengyu still had to take advantage of the situation. He was able to take advantage of the opportunity and take the lead when others were not able to enter the mainland.
He Chengyu is well aware of the benefits of doing business with the Mainland. Otherwise, He Chengyu would not have done so much for the Mainland, just because he sees the potential of the Mainland in the future.
"Master Chang, you and Mr. Ling should not go to the banquet later. I am particularly disgusted with this kind of dinner. I will ask the hotel to bring meals to you and Mr. Ling later," He Chengyu said.
"Mr. He, I have a confusion. No matter how good my craftsmanship is, I shouldn't let you take it so seriously, right?" Chang Xing asked.
"Master Chang, you still don't have a comprehensive understanding of your own value. Your craftsmanship is definitely master-level. No amount of courtesy is too great to invite a master-level person. I have to hurry over."
He Chengyu said.
Chang Xing nodded, looking at He Chengyu's back, still feeling a little strange. Chang Xing still couldn't understand, no matter how well his furniture was made, what use would it have to He Chengyu?
The dinner for Chang Xing and his son was very sumptuous, with four dishes and one soup for the two of them. The portion was quite generous. Chang Qing’s mouth had long been fed by Chang Xing, and she hated the food in the guest house to death.
"It tastes really bad. Dad, it's far inferior to what you cook. Will I not be able to eat the food you cook every day from now on?" Chang Qing asked worriedly.
"Dad will find a way to get you something to eat. Don't worry. In fact, the food looks pretty good, right?" Chang Xing said.
"It's good, I don't like it." Chang Qing said with disdain. If the chef of the guest house heard it, he would probably be furious. You must know that the chef who can stay in the provincial guest house is also very famous in the industry.
A famous chef.
Chang Xing tasted it and felt it was pretty good.
"I won't eat anymore." Chang Qing took a few bites, then pouted and refused to eat.
"Then let me tell you, you will have to drive for several hours later. If you don't eat now, you will be hungry on the way and I won't have anywhere to get you something to eat." Chang Xing warned.
Chang Qing was not worried at all: "Dad, I want to eat the delicious food prepared by my mother."
"No. I put the things in my luggage. Now I want to eat them, but I can't take them out," Chang Xing said.
Chang Qing chuckled: "I went through my luggage last night. It was full of clothes and no snacks at all. You must have hidden it. If you don't give me something to eat, I will call my mother."
"If you don't eat, don't even think about snacks." Chang Xing's attitude was very firm.
"Wow!" Chang Qing cried loudly, almost rolling on the ground.
"Even if you cry until your throat breaks down, your mother won't hear you. I'll let you cry as long as you want. It's just embarrassing. I'm not afraid of embarrassment. If others say why I don't care about the child, I will say that there is something wrong with the child's head. Every day
The restaurant is going to be noisy." Chang Xing said with a smile.
"Where can I be a father like you? You don't value your own children at all. Am I your biological child?" Chang Qing got up from the ground and patted the dust on his body. In fact, there was a carpet on the floor, which was very clean. Chang Qing
I rolled on the ground just now just to test whether the carpet was soft or not. There were tears in my eyes just now, but after I got up from the ground, I don’t know where the tears fell.
"Dad, are you not worried about me at all?" Chang Qing asked.
Chang Xing smiled and said: "Don't you think it's silly that you always do this?"
"Dad, can't we really have some snacks? I thought I could take care of enough snacks if I came out with you." Chang Qing asked.
"Then give up on this as soon as possible. From now on, snacks will no longer be relevant to you. Eat it quickly. Others will come to clean up later. In fact, I still think this beef is quite delicious, so I finished it." Chang Xing
said.
Chang Qing reluctantly picked up the bowl and ate it. Chang Qing, who thought the food was not tasty at first, actually started to fight with Chang Xing. Every time Chang Xing wanted to pick up a dish, Chang Qing would always grab it.
When He Chengyu came back, he smelled of alcohol: "Oh, I'm really scared of this kind of dinner. It's too scary."
"Are you going to Xiangjiang today?" Chang Xing asked.
"Go. I'll leave immediately. If I don't leave today, I'm afraid there will be a dinner party in the evening." He Chengyu was a little scared. When he first came to the mainland, he was constantly invited by dignitaries and dignitaries. He Chengyu was still a little proud, but the successive dinners completely made him feel uncomfortable.
He Chengyu was so scared that he could not wait to return to Xiangjiang immediately. Unfortunately, there were no flights between Xiangjiang and the mainland. He Chengyu could only take the Flower City route.
"Let's have a cup of sobering tea." Chang Xing pointed to the cup of tea on the table.
"Okay, thank you." He Chengyu picked up the tea and drank it without thinking. He didn't care whether it worked or not. He was really thirsty. He drank a cup of tea in one gulp. When the tea reached his mouth, a stream of
The coolness penetrates my heart and lungs. I feel much more comfortable all over my body and my head is much clearer.
"Eh? Is this tea really a sobering tea?" He Chengyu asked.
Chang Xing nodded: "This tea has the effect of sobering up."
"The effect is really good. When I drank it, I felt like I woke up from the wine. Is this tea your own?" He Chengyu asked.
"It's mine. If you need it, I'll give you some later," Chang Xing said.
"Yes, of course I do! With this treasure, I won't be afraid to drink with them. They are all really good, and they are all brewed in wine jars." Speaking of the wine bureau, He Chengyu was still a little afraid of the ferocity of the mainland officials.
Chang Xing took out a pottery jar of tea leaves from his bag and handed it to He Chengyu: "I brought it from my hometown and picked it from the mountains myself. It's not quite the same as your tea. If you don't mind, you can take it.
"
"Master Chang, I'm sorry that I took your tea for nothing." He Chengyu was also a person, and he could tell at a glance that this tea was by no means simple. Although there are many precious teas in Xiangjiang, and there are no teas that are worth gold, He Chengyu didn't.
Drink less. But this is the first time He Chengyu has seen such tea. Although the packaging is rustic, the tea is outstanding.
"There are plenty of this kind of tea in my hometown's mountains. You can just take it," Chang Xing said.
He Chengyu said: "Master Chang, you are really not simple. The furniture you made casually is more exquisite than the royal furniture made by the royal craftsmen in the palace in the past. Now just take out a can of tea, it is no worse than those famous teas
Where to go? Did you roast this tea yourself?"
Chang Xing nodded: "It's really me. I don't know how to fry tea leaves. I just fry these tea leaves myself."
"Master Chang, you are really making me understand more and more. The level of frying this tea leaves may not be comparable to that of the masters who knead the tea leaves. I drank the tea too quickly just now, and I haven't finished it yet."
Enjoy it." He Chengyu said this, obviously wanting to ask Chang Xing for a cup of tea.
"If you want to drink it, go and pour it yourself. The tea leaves are right there," Chang Xing said.
"Then I won't be polite." He Chengyu was also pretentious. He took a cup to grab some tea leaves, picked up a thermos and filled it with water. It was completely different from his usual tea drinking style, but He Chengyu still enjoyed it.
Chang Xing found that He Chengyu was indeed a bit interesting. Chang Xing looked at He Chengyu's dress and how in the East China Sea, the Flower City was like a star holding the moon. This person's identity must not be simple, but in front of him, this person looked like an ordinary person.
Generally speaking, this person's city can be imagined.
While making tea, He Chengyu said to Chang Xing: "Master Chang, from now on we should not address each other so harshly. I call you Brother Chang, and you call me Brother He. How about that?"
"Okay." Chang Xing is also a straightforward person, but he really likes to deal with straightforward people like He Chengyu.
"Brother Chang, I know you have always been confused as to why I have to go to all the trouble to invite you to Xiangjiang. This is a long story. I will talk to you in detail about it when I get to Xiangjiang. I will still rely on Chang in the future.
Brother." He Chengyu said.
"What did Brother He say? Since we are brothers, if anything happens to you, I will naturally do my best." Chang Xing said.
"Okay, okay. After I drank this cup of tea, I should be almost awake. We will set off for Xiangjiang immediately." He Chengyu said. Obviously He Chengyu was in a hurry to get back to Xiangjiang.
