0429 Meet, feast
After Chen Yue's convoy entered Yanlin County, it took nearly half an hour for the convoy to reach the border of Huiyan Township.
During this hour, 50,000 or 60,000 people in Yanlin County chanted 'Welcome General Chen Yue home' on the road through which Chen Yue passed.
Under the effect of Xiaoqian's powerful real-time scanning function, the name of everyone who has cheered immediately appears in the relevant sub-sections of the Huaguo section.
Those very few who were more jealous than envious of Chen Yue blended into the crowd and did not cheer. They originally wanted to take advantage of the fish, but they didn't expect that after Chen Yue passed by, they searched repeatedly on the gift list, but they didn't find their names.
In other words, Chen Yue is not a masochist, how can he give benefits to these people who are dissatisfied with him? At most, he doesn't care about these people.
The people who wanted to be confused did not succeed, and immediately said on the Internet that Chen Yue was lying and deceiving people, and they obviously went to welcome Chen Yue, but Chen Yue did not give them gifts.
Everyone in the world is interested to see how Chen Yue will reply to this matter.
In the relevant sub-sections of the Huaguo section, only Chen Yue's short sentence appeared: I only give gifts to the villagers who sincerely welcome my father.
The implication is that none of the people who have received the gifts really welcome him.
Soon, someone helped Chen Yue clarify on the Internet, saying that these people who didn't get gifts were all people who were extremely jealous and not psychologically normal. They stood in the crowd and just watched Chen Yue's motorcade pass by coldly, and they didn't shout a welcome speech at all.
So this very small number of people was despised by all, and they themselves stopped talking.
Of course, this is just a small episode in the whole welcome process.
In the end, when the convoy arrived at Huiyan Township, Chen Yue had already seen his grandfather standing on the border of the township and a large group of officials who looked like people hugging his grandfather, and the names on the gift list had exceeded 60,000 people.
These 60,000 people are not only the people of Yanlin County, but also many people from other counties who will stay in Yanlin County by chance.
This day has become a day of special significance for the people of Yanlin County. Almost every family in Yanlin County has received a gift worth more than 100,000 yuan from Chen Yue. For a long time, the people of Yanlin County are still talking about this with relish.
After Chen Yue saw his grandfather from a distance in the car, he immediately stopped the car and walked quickly towards his grandfather with Li Qian.
Chen Weiguo's father and daughter also followed closely.
Seeing his outstanding son and grandchildren walking towards him, especially his most beloved eldest grandson with a fairy-like person by his side, General Chen's old face suddenly smiled into a chrysanthemum.
The old general began to walk up slowly. Officials at all levels dragged a few steps back and followed.
When the two sides were walking in the opposite direction, more than 100 powerful soldiers of the escort team with loaded guns and ammunition quickly took up their positions and set up a strict guard formation.
"Good! good!" The old general felt the elite aura of more than 100 soldiers, and shouted "yes" three times in a row with great satisfaction.
The old general who has been in the army all his life regained a little of the feeling he had when he was in the army, and he suddenly felt comfortable.
"Hello grandpa!" When he was about to approach, Chen Yue walked a few steps quickly, came to the old general, and gave the old general a standard military salute.
Chen Yue, who was dressed in the uniform of a major general, was already tall and tall, and this military salute was also extremely standard, and his demeanor and bearing were peerless for a while.
The old general was stunned for a moment, and reflexively raised his hand to return the salute.
Chen Yue's hands were quick, and he grabbed the old general's shoulders and prevented the old general from returning the salute.
"Grandpa, I miss you so much. Are you okay now?" Chen Yue said emotionally.
"Good, good, grandpa, everything is fine. Xiaoyue, you're doing a good job outside. The Huaguo Star you led has made due contributions to the country and society, and we must make persistent efforts. By the way, this is your daughter-in-law Xiaoqian, right?" the old general happily praised Chen Yue a few words, and quickly turned the topic to Li Qian.
Li Qian stood beside Chen Yue vividly, feeling a little cramped and uneasy.
Hearing that the old man suddenly turned the topic to herself, her heart jumped.
"Hello grandpa, I'm Li Qian. Grandpa, Chen Yue and I have been busy with work and rarely have time to come back to see you, I hope you don't be surprised. Li Qian didn't wait for Chen Yue to speak, and immediately took the initiative to bow slightly to the old general, and said respectfully.
"Good, good boy. You young people are to put your career first. I was satisfied to be able to come back and visit my old man during the New Year's Festival. The old general looked at his granddaughter-in-law, who had a peerless face, nodded with great satisfaction and said.
At this time, Chen Weiguo and Chen Suping came up to salute the old general.
After the greetings of the main characters ended, Chen Weiqiang and Chen Ting, as well as other third-generation teenagers of the Chen family, came up to greet Chen Yue and the others.
After that, it was the turn of officials at all levels to come up one by one according to their ranks to talk to Chen Yue and get acquainted with them.
As for the other collateral relatives of the Chen family, at this time, they could only nod enthusiastically with a smile on their faces in the periphery. At this time, it was not their turn to step forward.
It's just that the things on the scene are busy for more than ten minutes before they are basically over.
In this process, Chen Yue and Li Qian have been supporting the old general left and right, for fear that he will be too tired. The old general looked left and right, and he was smiling so much that he couldn't even open his eyes.
Finally finished the scene, and everyone slowly set off to the Chen family's old house.
Because there was no urgency, everyone walked on foot on the way back. Anyway, the journey is not long, and the old general will not be too tired under the support of Chen Yue and Li Qian.
As they walked home, more than a dozen small trucks loaded with various banquet supplies, grain, oil, meat, and eggs passed over the crowd and drove in the direction of the Chen family's old house.
"Grandpa, is this a family in the village who is going to have a big feast?" Li Qian asked the old general a little curiously.
A lot of people laughed.
"Qianqian, it's our family that wants to make a big feast. Our Chen family is going to invite all the villagers back to Yan Township this time. If the villagers from other towns are willing to come to the banquet, they can also do it. Chen Ting said to Li Qian with a smile.
Entertaining the whole township was Chen Ting's idea.
In the last trade activity with Jasper City, Chen Ting exerted her great ability to move, and in just half a month, she actually sent goods worth 1.2 billion yuan to Jasper City. And Jasper City also received all the orders, and even the payment was paid in full in advance.
The deal brought Chen Ting's net income to more than 300 million yuan. Under normal circumstances, Chen Ting usually makes some official orders in Yongan City and Yanlin County, which cannot be earned in several lifetimes. After all, although the procurement list of the government is not small, there are many people involved in the carving. Chen Ting can only account for a small part of it.
Earning so much money at once made Chen Ting very satisfied with Chen Yue. Because the money was not given to her by Chen Yue, but the normal trade activities between her and Chen Yue. She felt that the money came with confidence.
It's just that she didn't know that the goods she got so eagerly got actually couldn't meet the standards required by Jasper City in many categories. The things she delivered are still piled up in the big warehouse in Jasper City. After the Star School and Star Fitness Gym are rolled out, those goods will be sent to the Star School and Star Fitness Gym for use.
Before the three capable members of the Chen family went home this time, Chen Ting proposed to the family that she would fund a banquet for the whole village to celebrate. The old general had no objection to this, and Chen Ting also purchased the corresponding materials and made arrangements in the village.
So in the village where the old general is located, all the villagers started their work early this morning.
But after Chen Ting saw the news of Chen Yue's extremely high-profile gift-giving behavior after returning to Yanlin County, she realized something and immediately decided to make fun of Chen Yue. She immediately found the leaders of the city and county, proposed that she should fund it, and asked the other party to provide manpower and material support, and the Chen family wanted to hold a big banquet to invite the whole township.
In this case, if the leaders still want to collect her money, they are not a qualified civil servant at all. The leaders of Yong'an City and Yanlin County immediately made a decision, regardless of the eve of the New Year's Festival, and immediately began to mobilize a large number of manpower and material resources to go to the Chen family's old house, and it was necessary to make sure that the banquet to welcome Chen Yue back home was brilliantly and brilliantly.
Old General Chen originally disagreed with such publicity, but after seeing Chen Yue's high-profile actions, the old general understood Chen Yue's thoughts, and acquiesced to Chen Ting's operation.
Speaking of the matter of the second son, the old general has actually been holding his breath in his heart and has not diverged. This time, I would like to take this opportunity to diverge appropriately.
"Oh, it's our family that is going to have a big feast. Pretty good. Li Qian continued Chen Ting's words.
"It's good. Chen Yue also said.
Chen Ting's move is exactly what Chen Yue wants. He didn't plan to keep a low profile when he went home this time.
was affirmed by Chen Yue and Li Qian at the same time, Chen Ting was so happy in her heart that she couldn't do it.
When the group returned to the old house of the Chen family, the houses and courtyards of every family in the entire village were already full of tables. These table utensils are from various large hotels in the city and county, and they are naturally exquisite. Moreover, the relevant personnel transported countless semi-finished dishes, which can be served with simple processing, and it does not take much time.
At this time, in addition to the villagers of the Chen family's village sitting at the table, many villagers from other villages are also coming one after another. All the people who arrived, as long as they said 'congratulations' to the reception staff arranged by the Chen family, and said a few happy words casually, they could sit at the table and feast.
After the news spread, many people in the city and county began to rush to the village where the Chen family was located in Huiyan Township.
There is no place for the people who arrived later, so the reception staff of the Chen family will arrange for them to wait temporarily. During the waiting period, there are naturally countless melons and fruits offered.
At about two o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Ting saw that there were too many people coming and heard that there were still many people coming one after another, and after discussing with the relevant leaders, she once again brought a large number of banquet supplies and countless ingredients, and spread out the banquet noodles in the two adjacent villages.
In the evening, it was not until the five nearby villages had spread out the banquet surfaces, and connected to the village where the Chen family's old house was located, that a total of six villages had a banquet and flowing water, and basically arranged all the people who came to the banquet.
After a simple count, this Chen family banquet opened more than 3,000 tables and received no less than 40,000 villagers. Because many folks are at the table more than once.
This incident has also become a classic event in Huiyan Township, and it has been repeatedly sung by the villagers of Huiyan Township many years later.
Since this banquet was officially funded by Yongan City and Yanlin County, Chen Yue expressed his appreciation for Yongan City and Yanlin County. When someone on the Internet just accused Yongan City and Yanlin County of being 'generous to the public', Chen Yue said that he would donate 1 billion yuan and 200 million yuan respectively to Yongan City and Yanlin County for the economic development of the government.
1 billion and 200 million are naturally far more than the efforts of Yongan City and Yanlin County. This immediately blocked the mouths of the people on the Internet.
The leaders of Yongan City and Yanlin County all of a sudden got all the face, and naturally they were all happy. The officials all sighed that as long as they paid for Chen Yue, there would never be a time to suffer.
