An official from the Legislative Affairs Building rode a feathered beast to the Winter Garden and announced a message: "Your Excellency Bai Yichuan will arrive on time."
Fang Qinghuai received the news and rushed to the garden office to inform Cheng Han.
Cheng Han said calmly: "In five minutes, go to the entrance of the Winter Garden to greet you."
This is necessary etiquette.
According to the rules, the Grand Consul is the highest official in a city, and the Director of Inspection is one level lower, so the latter should welcome the former.
Cheng Han looked at the owner of the winter garden again and said politely: "Mr. Fang, you are the host of the banquet today. Come with me later."
Fang Qinghuai was stunned for a moment, and even trembled when he spoke with excitement: "Okay... okay!"
This guy understands very well that in the eyes of ordinary people, he is still a figure, but in the eyes of real big shots, he is nothing.
Fang Qinghuai never expected that he would be lucky enough to get an opportunity to show his face on the important occasion of "The King Meets the King".
Even though it was just an insignificant "background board", he felt extremely satisfied.
After all, this is a historical event in this city and it will definitely be included in the city’s official annals. How many people in the city have the opportunity to witness it with their own eyes?
hey-hey!
The Fang family is really going to become famous!
*
Fifty-five points.
Cheng Han appeared at the gate of Fangyuan.
Fang Qinghuai stood nearby, just one position behind.
As a personal maid, Xie You also "snapped" a position.
"Boom! Boom!"
The pounding sound of hailstones became more violent.
On both sides of the protective shed, a thin layer of ice has accumulated on the ground.
Fang Qinghuai had nothing to say: "Director Cheng, due to the rush of time, this protective shelter is a bit crude, please forgive me."
Cheng Han shook his head gently and said in a gentle tone: "It has been done very well."
He paused and then said: "The Fang family and Dongyuan gave the great consul enough respect."
Fang Qinghuai looked confused, obviously not quite understanding the meaning of this sentence.
He didn't know how to answer the conversation, so he simply changed the subject: "I just went to the kitchen in person. Sixteen dishes have been prepared and the dinner can be served at any time."
Cheng Han said seriously: "This time, the Fang family has been really troubled."
Fang Qinghuai looked frightened: "It is an honor for the entire Fang family to have you come to the Winter Garden."
This sentence really comes from his heart. The Director has lived in Fang Yuan for so long, and has forced the Fang family to become a famous family in Anhua City.
Strictly speaking, the Fang family took a huge advantage.
Cheng Han smiled and said: "I have seen everything Mr. Fang and the Fang family have done, so it is appropriate to say thank you."
Fang Qinghuai's expression could be called flattered: "Director Cheng, in the future, as long as you give orders, the Fang family will fight tooth and nail to do it for you!"
Cheng Han laughed it off: "That's serious!"
Xie You watched this scene with emotion in her heart.
The director just said a few words, and he completely conquered the hearts of the Fang family and turned them into the iron among the irons.
This method of controlling people's hearts is really powerful!
*
7:02.
"Bang! Bang!"
A series of footsteps of running feathered beasts came from far to near.
Fang Qinghuai listened for a moment, and immediately spoke out the source of the footsteps: "The Grand Consul's escort is here."
Among the officials in Anhua City, only the Grand Consul enjoys official security treatment, and the escort team consists of six people.
Directors of other government agencies can only bring their own bodyguards with them at most.
Xie You whispered: "The Grand Consul deliberately arrived at the banquet a few minutes late. This should be a subtle expression of dissatisfaction."
To put it more bluntly, Bai Yichuan didn't dare not come, but he had strong dissatisfaction in his heart, so he would play such a boring trick.
Cheng Han looked indifferent: "No need to care."
Fang Qinghuai just listened with his ears straightened, not daring to say a word.
This guy is very self-aware and knows that this is a fight between big shots and he has no qualifications to get involved.
However, the owner of the Winter Garden felt in his heart that compared to Director Cheng's clever methods, the Grand Consul's tricks were too low-level.
*
Two minutes later.
A group of guards rode feathered beasts and braved the hail to arrive at the gate of Fangyuan.
"laugh!"
Large jets of steam erupted, making a loud whistling sound.
A luxury crystal car stopped at the gate.
"Click!"
The back seat door was opened.
A slightly fat old man emerged from it slowly and caught everyone's eyes.
It was none other than the Grand Consul Bai Yichuan.
Cheng Han took the initiative to salute: "His Excellency, Grand Consul, it's a pleasure to meet you!"
Bai Yichuan smiled softly: "Director Cheng, nice to meet you!"
Fang Qinghuai was not qualified to come forward to greet him, so he could only stand aside and act as a humanoid "background board".
Bai Yichuan pretended to sigh: "Since Director Cheng took office as the Anhua City Inspection Office, I just met him for the first time today. He is indeed young and promising!"
At first glance, this sentence seems to be a compliment.
But everyone else could hear that this was a secret mockery of Director Cheng who didn't know his superiors and didn't go to see the Grand Consul for so many days after taking office. Instead, the latter had to take the initiative to meet him.
Cheng Han said with a smile: "The replacement of the old with the new is the inheritance law of all things. After me, there will eventually be more new faces appearing on the big stage of Anhua City."
The implication is: I represent the "new", you represent the "old", and I replace you, which is the inheritance law of Anhua City!
Bai Yichuan choked hard.
As soon as the two sides met, there was a tense atmosphere.
Fang Qinghuai shrank his neck and even breathed less consciously. The confrontation between the big shots really made him a little trembling.
Cheng Han made an "invite" gesture: "The snake soup banquet is ready. Please take your seat."
Bai Yichuan felt extremely aggrieved, but he forced himself to adopt a arrogant tone: "Director Cheng is determined."
After speaking, this person should take the first step.
Walked more than ten meters.
Bai Yichuan looked at the protective shed, his eyes swept over some rough places, and he commented unceremoniously: "This shed is too rough."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! This sentence is an allusion to the fact that such shoddy workmanship is not the way to treat guests.
Fang Qinghuai looked embarrassed when he heard this, but he didn't dare to defend himself.
Cheng Han said calmly: "The three hundred workers urgently recruited by the Fang family built this protective shed in a few hours. Although it is simple, it is strong enough."
He paused and emphasized his tone: "In order to allow you to walk more than thirty meters without being disturbed by the hail, they have worked hard all afternoon."
The subtext of this sentence is: accusing the shed of being poor is completely ignorant!
Bai Yichuan's old face trembled, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes.
Fang Qinghuai's eyes showed obvious gratitude.
soon.
A group of people entered the main hall.
This is where the feast is held.
What you see.
On a luxurious long table, there are more than a dozen exquisite porcelain plates of different shapes, each of which contains beautiful-looking dishes.
The air is filled with strong fragrance.
No matter from which perspective, this is definitely a table-top feast.
Cheng Han sighed with emotion: "As far as I know, more than a thousand people have worked hard for this table of luxurious dishes."
Bai Yichuan said in a low voice: "It's indeed quite a lot."
The Grand Consul had already heard some information and knew that the number "more than a thousand people" was not nonsense, and the word "luxury" was not an exaggeration.
Cheng Han's tone suddenly became serious: "The hard work of more than a thousand people has resulted in the feast of snake soup we enjoy tonight.
"The so-called reciprocation, I would like to ask Your Majesty the Grand Consul, should we do something to be able to cope with the efforts of these people?"
Bai Yichuan's face suddenly became very ugly.
This guy heard it, and the other party's words were obviously saying that he had done nothing recently and he really couldn't live up to the food on the table.
Cheng Han's tone became more and more serious: "Anhua City is an Anhua City for hundreds of thousands of people, not a city for one person. As the superior of Anhua City, you should take into account the interests of the vast majority of people.
"If you only care about enjoying the benefits of the superior, but cannot appease the people, where will you put the people of the city?"
Bai Yichuan was speechless.
Fang Qinghuai felt a strong urge to cheer loudly.
Xie You looked shocked, and suddenly understood the biggest difference between his boss and the Grand Consul - the sense of responsibility.
Cheng Han looked directly at the Grand Consul like a sharp sword: "Your Excellency, what do you think?"
