688 Banquet (2)

Although it was the inside of Xianyi Angry Horse, Du Xiao’s gift was also very embarrassing, which was a box of tea leaves.

Passing the gift to the servant, Du Xiao looked around and quickly noticed Chen Liang who was sitting grandiosely in Zhao Tai.

His expression froze, but quickly returned to normal.

“Uncle Zhao, you are really getting younger and younger.”

Du Xiao who walked over did not have the hegemony and power of the past, and looked like a polite and humble junior.

Sure enough, he still complied with the old saying.

A mature person will never have a monotonous face.

In front of different characters, they will show different looks.

“Really? I’m worried about how many more gray hairs I have on my head.”

Zhao Tai stood up, smiling kindly.

“Introduction, this is our outstanding young entrepreneur in the East China Sea, Chen Liang, this is…”

“Uncle Zhao, I know Dong Chen.”

Du Xiao took the conversation and looked at Chen Liang. He was jealous when no enemy met, but smiled kindly on the contrary.

“Dong Chen, I didn’t expect to meet here.”

Chen Liang also didn’t hold the air. After Du Xiao took the initiative to say hello, he quickly put down his teacup and got up, also with an unexpected smile on his face.

“Governor Zhao said just now that there are guests. I didn’t expect it to be you, Mr. Du. What a coincidence.”

Du Xiao smiled and nodded, completely unable to see the grudges and contradictions.

The acting skills of the two can be described as half a catty.

“It just so happens. Since you two know each other, then I don’t need to introduce more.”

obviously.

Not only did Zhao Tai fail to explain to Chen Liang in advance for this meal, Du Xiao was also kept in the dark.

“Governor, the meal is ready.”

Secretary Xiao reminded.

“Go, eat and talk.”

Chen Liang and Du Xiao both had their own thoughts, and followed Zhao Tai to the restaurant.

Secretary Xiao originally planned to leave, but Zhao Tai stayed to eat together.

A little detail is enough to explain from the side that Zhao Tai is an official and a person.

Eating in No. 1 Courtyard of the City Hall, naturally there will not be any scene of a full-feast of Han and Han people. The dishes on the table are very simple, three meats and three vegetarians, they are all home-cooked dishes.

“You should usually eat delicious delicacies, and you don’t know the habit of eating or not.”

“Uncle Zhao, what you said, I am never picky eaters. When I was young, my dad ate the most pickled vegetable buns for me.”

Chen Liang’s expression became visibly stiff. If it hadn’t been for the fact that he had experienced more recently and his xinxing had been tempered a lot, he would have almost laughed.

If this laughs out, it will definitely be embarrassing.

Even if he had such a bad family environment when he was a child, he was not as miserable as pickled vegetable buns every day.

But Zhao Tai seemed to believe it and nodded with a smile.

“Your dad’s personality is like that. If you think that a boy has to endure hardship, the sword’s edge comes from sharpening, and the plum blossom comes from the bitter cold. His generation also came from childhood, so it’s the same for educating you. He wanted you to join the army since he was a child. , Inherit his mantle, but this kind of thing cannot be forced. You young people have their own ideas and life is their own. After so much effort, he couldn’t be free in the end.”

Zhao Tai and Du Xiao were chatting about family life there, and Chen Liang didn’t feel embarrassed, and took care of himself.

“Dong Chen, have a drink?”

Secretary Xiao is very good at coming.

The job of secretary is generally a human being, and as the first secretary, he is also a veritable figure of power in the East China Sea.

The average rich man definitely doesn’t need him to lower his body to cater, mainly because the young man’s weight in the Governor’s mind seems to be unusual, and he should not be negligent.

“Sorry, I drove the car.”

“It’s okay, just call a driver later.”

Chen Liang was not so good at rejecting the other party’s face so much, so he could only nod his head.

The wine on the table is not Moutai, but a special national cellar, which is not circulated in the market and only serves seniors above a certain level.

Although he has a lot of money now, Chen Liang has indeed never drank such a good wine. The burning hotness of his stomach made him cough, and he was a little bit upright.

His coughing attracted the attention of Du Xiao and Zhao Tai.

“Xiao Chen, are you okay?”

“fine.”

Chen Liang took a breath.

“I didn’t expect this wine to be so strong.”

“If Dong Chen can’t drink, drink water, otherwise it won’t be nice if he gets drunk later.”

Du Xiao reminded.

Well known.

In addition to being a society of human relations, Longguo is also a society of wine tables.

Since Chen Liang’s wine has already been poured, if he doesn’t finish drinking it and put it here, it would be disrespectful to Zhao Tai, and he might offend him because of it.

Du Xiao’s move seemed well-intentioned, but in reality it was sinister.

Naturally, Chen Liang is not a stunned young man who just came out of society. In any case, he had at least worked in Shunfeng Company for more than a year before, and his basic humanity is still clear.

“It’s okay, thank you Master Du for your kindness.”

“This wine is relatively strong, but it shouldn’t be a big problem for you young people. You two, you have to drink it well.”

Zhao Tai didn’t mention a word about the conflict between Chen Liang and Du Xiao, but the meaning behind the words was very clear.

His presence really surprised Du Xiao.

Before, Chen Liang was just a capitalist in his eyes. Apart from a little money, other aspects were not worth mentioning, but if Zhao Tai supported him behind, the concept would be different.

The leader of the East China Sea will definitely make further progress in the future.

Let alone Du Xiao, even the entire Du family is generally unwilling to offend such a senior official.

But what Du Xiao couldn’t figure out was that a kid who has no foundation and no background, at best just a little bit of shit luck, why is it so favored by Zhao Tai?

“Master Du, I toast you a cup, I have offended you before, but don’t take it to your heart.”

Chen Liang held up the wine glass toward Du Xiao, his eyes were sincere and sincere.

Do not look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha.

At this time, if he didn’t give Chen Liang this face, it would be to slap Zhao Tai in the face, and Du Xiao would not be so stupid.

After smiling, Du Xiao quickly picked up the wine glass.

“Chen Dongyan is serious, nothing offends him, just a little misunderstanding.”

“Hey.”

The two cups collided crisply.



Regardless of whether they met each other or not, they had a friendly smile on their faces, at least under Zhao Tai’s gaze.

It’s another bite.

There seemed to be a fire burning from belly to throat, and Chen Liang grinned secretly.

In contrast, Du Xiao’s performance was much better, perhaps because he often drank this kind of wine, his expression remained the same.

“Uncle Zhao, where is Qingzi?”

“When the child is older, I can’t help my parents. She rarely comes back.”

Zhao Tai shook his head.

When he mentioned himself, the jewel in the palm, there was a sense of depression and loneliness between the eyebrows and eyes of the powerful official.
