Chapter 152: Thanksgiving Banquet

On August 10th, Zhuo Ziyuan finally received the admission letter from the University of Tokyo and successfully entered the School of Economics, majoring in international economics and trade, which started on September 2nd, Monday.

As soon as they received the notice, their parents began to hold a thank-you banquet, which they have been waiting for almost a month, since Zhuo Ziyuan assessed the score, knowing that the university was nine out of ten, Zhuo's father shouted to hold a wedding banquet, indeed, as long as the children in the countryside can be admitted to college, for the parents of this era, it is quite a glorious thing, not to mention that Zhuo Ziyuan is still the only first college student in the village, according to Zhuo's father's original idea, although it will not be a big special event, but at least it must be known to those people in the village, so at first he was going to do it in the village's hometown, inviting relatives and friends to come to the house for a gathering and set off firecrackers, artillery or something, so that the whole village does not know, for Zhuo's father, this can be regarded as a kind of homecoming.

However, in the end, after Zhuo Ziyuan said something wrong, he dispelled his father's idea, but it is still necessary to hold a banquet, after all, it is a happy event, when the time comes, invite a few teachers from the school, plus relatives, find a high-grade hotel, it can be regarded as a thank-you banquet, and now this kind of thank-you banquet has become popular in major hotels, and Zhuo Ziyuan's family also made up for this excitement.

The teachers of the three main courses and the six secondary courses, Zhuo Ziyuan politely called them all, but some teachers went out on a trip, and some teachers conflicted with other dinners, and only 5 people came in the end.

Lu Tao, who was in the Eastern Capital, didn't know how to know that Zhuo Ziyuan's family was going to hold a thank-you banquet, and he also called Zhuo Ziyuan a day in advance, saying that he was going to come back to celebrate together, and said that this was the first big joy in Zhuo Ziyuan's life, and if he wanted to wait for the next time, Zhuo Ziyuan would have to get married and have children, so he had to participate.

At the same time, Lu Tao also contacted several of Zhuo Ziyuan's subordinates, Du Nan, Liu Bin, and Xu Ziqiang, and they are all very familiar with each other now because of Zhuo Ziyuan's relationship.

Zhuo Ziyuan didn't stop them, come on, I was already worried about booking three tables or two tables, so I don't have to worry about it, just three tables of people, 8 people per table.

On August 14th, the Xie Shi banquet was booked at the Jindu Hotel, after all, it is one of the best in Longcheng, Zhuo's father has face, and the money is spent, but Zhuo's father is not distressed about this expense, he is still confident, just be happy.

One table of relatives, one table of aunts, uncles, two uncles, one table of subordinate friends, Lu Tao and their 4, Zhao Qiang and their foursome, one table of teachers, Zhuo Ziyuan and his parents of course accompanied the teacher at a table, Li Xinyuan and Zhao Lan are at the same table as Zhao Qiang, although they have been at Zhuo Ziyuan's house for two years, except for their cousin Zhuo Jinju, who is still helping to take care of the supermarket, they are not familiar with Zhuo Ziyuan's relatives.

Lu Tao and the four of them each gave a gift, Lu Tao gave him a fountain pen, which is not as expensive as Su Chuan took out last time, but it is also a domestic brand, Xu Ziqiang sent a suitcase, Liu Bin sent a backpack, Du Nan was more direct, and I don't know where he knew Zhuo Ziyuan's shoe size, and he actually gave him a pair of Nike sneakers, according to his meaning, this is also the meaning of step by step.

As for other people, there is no consideration in this regard, relatives needless to say, they send red envelopes directly, which is also a kind of custom, do not buy those bells and whistles, directly send red envelopes, on the one hand, let you buy whatever you like with your own money, on the other hand, it is also a disguised funding, now people are like this, going to college such a thing, not that you can get on if you are admitted, but also to consider the problem of whether you can afford it, at this time, the role of relatives and friends is also reflected, in any case, a few relatives and friends make do, not to mention that they can directly pay the tuition fees, save some frugality, at least can settle a living expenses, reduce the burden of some familiesAlthough Zhuo Ziyuan's family does not have this need, such a custom is still very necessary, of course, such a custom is not only for going to college, no matter what major things a family has, as long as it costs a lot of money, relatives and friends are basically dealt with in this way, such as Zhuo's father was hospitalized in a car accident before.

Of course, teachers definitely don't need to give gifts or red envelopes when they come to dinner, after all, this is nominally called a thank-you banquet, on the contrary, Zhuo Ziyuan also prepared gifts for each teacher, although I don't know their preferences, but as the saying goes, it doesn't matter if there are many people, it is not popular to send shopping cards or something, Zhuo's father prepared a gift bag, tea, wine, cigarettes, supplements, with a total value of more than 1,000 yuan.

During the meal, the parents took Zhuo Ziyuan to each table for a round, and the overall atmosphere was very good.

However, there were still some problems during the banquet that Zhuo Zi was far from considering.

"Zhuo Ziyuan, who are the people at the table on our right, why do they call you Mr. Zhuo?" asked the head teacher Tang Jing.

Lu Tao and the four of them seemed to have discussed, Zhuo Ziyuan's father was called Brother Zhuo, and Zhuo Ziyuan was called Zhuo Zong, Zhuo Ziyuan even wondered in his heart, are these guys taking advantage of themselves by changing the law.

Of course, Lu Tao has a reason for them to call it so, not to mention Lu Tao, Xu Ziqiang and they are all in their thirties, Liu Bin and Du Nan are also twenty-eight or nine, logically speaking, Zhuo Ziyuan has just come of age, a year earlier, he was still a minor, the four of them and Zhuo Ziyuan of course can not be regarded as the same generation, Zhuo's father is also forty-two years old, if you want to call uncle, the four of them can't open this mouth no matter what, and the final way to avoid embarrassment is Brother Zhuo, and also called Zhuo's father young, and it is natural to call Zhuo Ziyuan Zhuo, who made him the boss.

"Mr. Tang, that's the case, several of them are the managers of our convenience store, our convenience store has now opened more than a dozen branches in Dongdu, my dad's meaning, his management of these stores in Longcheng is already the limit, and those in Dongdu will let me manage them in the future, it just so happens that my university newspaper major also has some relevance, and this matter has been said a long time ago, so they called it for the convenience of the title. The head teacher's question must still be answered, but Zhuo Ziyuan has no intention of concealing such a business as a chain convenience store, just listen to the name, it is related to Zhuo Ziyuan's family, and this will also be his career on the surface.

"Really, more than a dozen have already opened in the Eastern Capital, so soon, no wonder you didn't choose to go to Kyoto, I've been wondering. "The head teacher Tang Jing has a certain understanding of each student's family, she knew for a long time that Zhuo Ziyuan's family had opened a convenience store in Longcheng, but she didn't expect that there were more than a dozen in Dongdu.

"Yes, since you have a career in the East, it's more convenient to be nearby, but, Zhuo Ziyuan, you are really hidden. "This is a math teacher, and he is also the teacher who Zhuo Ziyuan had the most contact with in high school, except for the class teacher, who made him the representative of the math class.

"The teacher has won the award, and I am also crossing the river by feeling the stones, whether I can develop and grow, I don't know yet. In front of anyone, Zhuo Ziyuan does not lose his modesty.

"It's already very good, you have a career before you enter university, which is a valuable experience than reading any book, and with your ability, I am optimistic about you. Tang Jing said that at school, she was surprised that Zhuo Ziyuan was different, and now that she knows that he has such a career, it can be regarded as solving one of her doubts.

"Yes, compared to you, those of us who are teachers are really ashamed. ”

"The teacher said seriously, if there is no selfless dedication of the teachers, silently cultivate our children, how can we have a better future, I am at best a good person, the teachers' dedication, but they are all in the cultivation of the future successors of the motherland, who is not from the discipline of the teachers to grow up, to say that the world's most magnificent profession, it is none other than teachers. ”

Sycophants, Zhuo Ziyuan also has a set, and sure enough, after these words, the teachers all laughed from ear to ear.

"I really didn't see it at school, but you are still so eloquent with this mouth. Tang Jing scolded with a smile.

Not to mention the surprise of the teachers, everything is normal on the relatives' side, they all know that Zhuo Ziyuan's family has a chain of convenience stores, and they only regard Lu Tao and them as ordinary store managers, employees, etc., but Lu Tao and the people at their table also muttered in their hearts.

Except for Lu Tao and Li Xinyuan who know all of Zhuo Ziyuan's current layout, everyone else is not very clear, even Zhuo's father and Zhuo's mother don't know about it.

Seeing Zhao Qiang and them, Xu Ziqiang is the most uncalm in the Dongdu trio, compared to Du Nan and Liu Bin, his vision is wider, and the level of contact is also higher, he knows what it means for Zhuo Ziyuan to set up a security team, and these four people at the same table are not easy to be with them at first glance, and they cannot be ordinary security guards, which means that his boss's plan for the future is very big, so big that he has to start arranging security matters now, his concept is very simple, he can be said to be the person who knows Zhuo Ziyuan's strength best outside of Lu Tao, with the net worth of Zhuo Ziyuan that he knows now, it is far from the point of cultivating bodyguards, let alone setting up a security company, which made him even more determined to follow this boss all the way to the end.

Although Du Nan and Liu Bin had some feelings, they didn't think much about it, Zhao Qiang's team knew a little too much, he could be regarded as a military division in this team, for more than a year, although he didn't have frequent contact with Zhuo Ziyuan, he also learned about Zhuo Ziyuan from various channels, but he didn't expect that what he knew was only a small part, at such an age, he had the ability to form so many companies? He knew about the chain convenience store, but what the hell did Zhiyuan Technology suddenly appear, and what happened to Youdao Capital? An investment company? Can you set up an investment company with a little money? Of course it can't be, where does the boss's money come from, and can he support such a big stall by virtue of writing books and convenience stores? Knowing the heart is not convinced, he is a little worried about the boss's source of funds, but in the past year or so of contact, I have never seen any suspicious characters appear, although he is working on a salary, but if the boss has something illegal hidden in the secret, he is still very uncomfortable, do not rule out the possibility of leaving, as a soldier, know that he has some of his persistence and persistence.

The white bear and the lizard think relatively simply, firstly, the boss did not let them do anything illegal and disciplined, and secondly, the boss treats them well, as long as it is not too much, for them, there is still no psychological barrier, after all, they have even killed people before, what is there to worry about.

Of course, Zhuo Ziyuan doesn't know what everyone thinks in their hearts, if he knows, he may have to vomit three liters of blood, and you can all associate it with each other.
