Chapter 30: An Unexpected Drinking Situation
After a while, the car stopped in front of a tall and spacious castle, Hai Feng looked out, the Gothic castle building is very large, the whole white marble is like white jade, and the fountain in front of the courtyard is erected a white marble Venus holding a water bottle, which is based on Ingres's famous work "The Spring". The whole building is illuminated with gold and looks golden again, which is particularly dazzling in this quiet night.
Hai Feng said to Li Wei faintly: "Tang Hua's treatment is really good, the guests and dinners are all in the ancient castle, you should not be the director of the sub-bureau with a knighthood, right?"
Li Title's expression was a little embarrassed, although it was too shabby for a police chief to invite guests to dinner, but this was inevitably a little too luxurious, just looking at the place of the banquet made Li Rank a little uncomfortable, although it was very happy to have friends from afar, but Hai Feng was his friend, and it had nothing to do with this police chief.
And this standard is a little too high, a meal in this place is about a few months' salary for Li Ling, and I haven't heard that this police chief has a mine at home, so he doesn't plan to live after eating this meal? In short, Li Wei's heart is a little awkward, he feels that the rumors of the director he heard before may not be groundless, but since he came, he can't leave with his sleeves up, after all, Hai Feng and they are still there, and it is not appropriate to hang this large group of people here, so he can only go inside.
After a few people entered the room, they saw that there were already seven or eight people waiting in the room, and when they saw Hai Feng and others coming, a middle-aged man in a blue polo shirt greeted him, and introduced the people present to Hai Feng and others, and Li Wei also introduced Hai Feng and his party to the others present, and the two sides sat down in turn.
Hai Feng sat on the seat, faintly feeling that something was wrong with this banquet, in his right hand were Liu Zhiyang and Li Zhi, and on his left hand were Xu Dong, director of the Tangping Branch, Qian Zhen, deputy general manager of the Qian Group, Cao Qin, deputy director of the Guan'an branch of the Tangping Branch, Shi Bi, deputy director in charge of criminal investigation of the Tangping Branch, and Wen Yuxin were accompanied by the captain of the network security team of the Tangping Branch, the captain of the criminal investigation team of the Tangping Branch, and the director of the political work office of the Tangping Branch.
Li Zhi just said on the road that the cadres on Tang Hua's side are younger, and most of them who are as big as Hai Feng are already at the level of deputy directors, and the captains below are too young, so Hai Feng didn't think it was inappropriate to arrange the deputy directors to accompany them, maybe it was also here to take care of Hai Feng's face and find peers to accompany them, so as not to embarrass them.
But the appearance of the deputy general manager of the Qian Group at the wine table is a little incomprehensible, everyone is a systematic person, but there is such an outsider, which inevitably makes people suspicious.
Xu Dong also seemed to realize that Qian Zhen's presence was a bit unusual, so he explained to Hai Feng: "Qian is always a rare young talent for our Tang Hua, and I am also a good friend, he has long heard of Hai Qingtian's prestige, and knows that you are coming to Tang Hua, he wants to see the real face, so let me help arrange it, I will arrange this banquet on my own initiative, I'm sorry everyone, and please bear with me from Mingzhou!"
Hai Feng said with a smile: "It should be that we are embarrassed, this time we have to work hard for everyone in the Tangping Branch." ”
Xu Dong said with a smile: "It should be, it's all a system, it's normal for everyone to help each other, besides, in fact, I still have a very good relationship with Mingzhou, my brother is still in Mingzhou, Captain Liu, you two may still be old acquaintances with him!"
"Oh, your brother is a police officer in Minneto?" Hai Feng asked.
Xu Dong nodded and said with a smile: "Xu Wei, the director of the Mingtan Branch of the Mingcheng Police Department, is my own brother. ”
Hai Feng smiled: "That's really an old acquaintance!"
Xu Dong said with a smile: "Then I will raise my glass first, in order to welcome everyone who comes from afar to drink this first cup, I hope everyone will have everything well and be happy in Tanghua!"
After speaking, Xu Dong drank all the wine in the cup, and everyone else also drank the first glass of wine. Haifeng doesn't drink alcohol often, but he also tasted this glass of wine as a rare wine. He knew it was going to be expensive.
Look at the dishes on the table, swallow wings, abalone belly are all in the list, sea cucumbers and lobsters are all present, and all kinds of dishes are in your eyes. When the waiter introduced the dishes, Haifeng was shocked, the jade shrimp ring of Shandong cuisine, the boiling water cabbage of Sichuan cuisine, the roast suckling pig of Cantonese cuisine, the crab roe lion head of Huaiyang cuisine, the Buddha jumping over the wall of Fujian cuisine, the shrimp fried eel back of Zhejiang cuisine, the shark fin of Hunan cuisine, and the Huangshan stewed pigeon of Hui cuisine all appeared.
Xu Dong and the others just kept toasting to the members of the White Tiger Group, and every time Hai Feng mentioned Shi Heng, he said, "Everything is under control, and it will be on the case tomorrow." Just like that, the staggered time passed unconsciously, the members of the White Tiger Group except for the two ladies who didn't drink were already drunk, Li Wei was already unconscious, and Xu Dong and the others also left the room one by one.
At this time, Qian Zhen came over and said to Wen Yuxin and Li Weiwei: "I'm sorry, I drank a little too much today, the captain of the sea captain and they are drunk like this, they probably won't be able to go back today, I'll wait and arrange someone to help them go to the room to rest!
Wen Yuxin Wanran rejected Qian Zhen's invitation, saying that it was more appropriate for herself and Li Weiwei to go back to the hotel. When Qian Zhen was about to call someone to see off the two ladies, Zhao Zhijie suddenly got up from the wine table and saw Wen Yuxin and Li Weiwei leaving, so he was going back to the hotel with them.
Qian Zhen didn't keep it, so he arranged a car to send the three of them back. But to Qian Zhen's surprise, Zhao Zhijie woke up the members of the White Tiger Group one by one before leaving.
It's strange to say that a few people who were already drunk and unconscious struggled to wake up as long as they were slapped by Zhao Zhijie, and in the end, Qian Zhen didn't stay alone, and even Li Wei left with the people of the White Tiger Group. Qian Zhen knew that tonight's second scene was arranged, but he didn't care, anyway, the goal had been achieved. Qian Zhen also left the room and went back to his guest room to rest.
After the drivers sent Hai Feng and his party back to the hotel, they placed Li in the hotel room and left. Li Zhi, who was originally unconscious, sat up from the bed after they left, he walked to Hai Feng's room and knocked on the door, Hai Feng opened the door, and before Li Wei could speak, Hai Feng went over and pulled Liu Zhiyang up, and the three of them returned to Li Zhiyang's room again.
Li Wei looked at the two people in front of him and couldn't help but blurt out: "You two weren't drunk before, don't the others also pretend?"
Liu Zhiyang laughed and said to Li Zhi: "Didn't you also pretend to be drunk and talk about us, I just said that according to your alcohol consumption, you shouldn't lie down so quickly!
"Today's banquet is high enough, prepared according to the standard of a state banquet? Our group of people has not yet reached the standard of foreign guests, right? This meal is worth a lot of money, is Tang Hua's salary so high? Or is it that this time there is a financier to pay the bill, so there is no need to feel distressed?"
"I thought that only those guys in Mingcheng would play like this, but I didn't expect you Tang Hua to act like this, but the grade is higher than that of Mingcheng, it is worthy of being a metropolis, what is the origin of that gold owner, it is Qian Zhen of the Qian Group, he has a wide range of luck, and the guests are all in the ancient castle, and the family opens a gold mine?"
"It shouldn't be the first time that your Director Xu has come to this castle for a banquet, right? You should be a frequent visitor, you won't be a frequent visitor there, now is the time to reverse the four winds, you kid can be more leisurely, this is not Mingzhou, in case you go in, I want to send you a boxed lunch, it's not convenient!"
"But so many of our classmates are here, there should be no problem in taking care of them, at least you should be able to add a ham or something to each meal, you can still do it in the transformation with peace of mind, you don't have to worry about things at home, corruption and bribery are not a felony, at most it is a reprieve, eat more vegetables and less meat in it, exercise more and worry less, maybe your daughter-in-law can give you a big fat boy when you transform!"
Li Zhiyang's face was purple for a while when Liu Zhiyang said, and he replied curtly: "Your kid's unforgiving mouth is really unchanged for ten thousand years, I didn't just eat a meal, and you sent me to prison? ”
Li Yu paused and continued: "It's the first time I've been to that kind of place, and the director of this sub-bureau usually doesn't have much contact with me, and it's the first time I've seen this big scene today. To be honest, I don't know why there is such a big battle, but I have heard some rumors that this big director is generous on weekdays. The reason why I agreed to go to the banquet this time is because I need help from here to arrest Shi Heng, and when they told me that they wanted to invite you to the banquet, I didn't refuse them, and I won't compensate you two!"
Hai Feng said: "Why are you giving us compensation, the food is very good, we hillbillies have also seen the world, it's good, it's all for the smooth arrest tomorrow, and you have nothing wrong! Just think of this Director Xu's hospitality!"
The three of them talked in the room for a while, recalling the campus life of the year, and also telling their experiences over the years. Every once in a while, there would be a burst of laughter in the room. It wasn't until three o'clock in the middle of the night that Hai Feng and Liu Zhiyang returned to their rooms.
Early the next morning, Hai Feng took Zhang Mufeng to the Tangping Branch to inquire about Shi Heng's arrest, but it was different from yesterday's enthusiasm, only to find that the leaders at yesterday's dinner were nowhere to be seen, and they couldn't get through on the phone, and no one could answer when they went to the Cyber Security Brigade to inquire about the situation, so Hai Feng had to dial Li Title's phone again, tell him about the situation, and seek Li Title's help.
Not long after hanging up the phone, the captain of the Cyber Security Brigade of the Tangping Branch called Hai Feng and told Hai Feng that Shi Heng was missing, and he would continue to pay attention to it, and then notify Hai Feng when there was a new situation, and then hung up the phone.
Hai Feng and Zhang Mufeng left the Tangping Branch after listening to the phone, and it didn't take long for Li Rank to come to Hai Feng, Li Rank was also very dissatisfied with the non-cooperation of the Tangping Branch, he told Hai Feng that he would call someone else to help Hai Feng find Shi Heng, but Hai Feng just smiled slightly, I don't know what Hai Feng and Li Rank said, Li Rank laughed after listening to Hai Feng's head, and then left happily, before leaving, he also told Hai Feng that he could help at any time if he needed it.
That night, Xu Dong reappeared in the castle with Cao Qin and Shi Bi, and Qian Zhen had already prepared a banquet waiting for the three of them. Once again, the four of them drank happily.
At the banquet, Cao Qin told Haifeng about eating closed soup during the day, and several people laughed happily. At this time, Xu Dong said to Qian Zhen: "Mr. Qian, your banquet yesterday is a waste, there is no need to invite them, how can those people know how to taste this delicious wine and food?"
Qian Zhen smiled and said to Xu Dong: "Don't waste it, it's good if you drink it, I originally thought that Hai Feng was a certain character, but it seemed that it was nothing more than this when I saw it yesterday!"
Xu Dong said: "I didn't think he was anything great, but he was just a dead brain like that Li Title." If it weren't for your face, I wouldn't have eaten with them yesterday at all. ”
Qian Zhen said with a smile: "It's hard for you, but if you hadn't called them over yesterday, Shi Heng wouldn't have left so easily." Thank you so much!"
Xu Dong smiled: "It's just an insignificant trivial matter, your Qian Zong's face is naturally to be given! He left Tang Hua, right? The Hai Feng from Mingzhou didn't care, but this guy Li Wei is now very close to Qiao Yuqian. That Qiao Yuqian just loves to fool around all day long, if he is targeted, it will be troublesome!"
Qian Zhen said with a smile: "Don't worry, it's no longer in Tanghua, there will be no problem." ”
Xu Dong smiled and said: "That's good, I don't worry about you doing things, now we can drink with peace of mind!"
Qian Zhen clapped his hands after listening to Xu Dong's words, and several young girls dressed in sexy and delicate bodies walked in, and the three people present saw that the eyes of these women were straight, and Xu Dong muttered to Qian Zhen: "Who are these people?"
Qian Zhen leaned into Xu Dong's ear and whispered, "This is a thank you gift to thank everyone for their help yesterday!"
Xu Dong muttered: "How can it be done, we are all state cadres, it's not appropriate for you to send women to us, right?"
Qian Zhen smiled and said: "How can I let the leaders violate discipline, not to send women, but to temporarily play the role of a moon old to help you find love!"
Xu Dong's face suddenly burst into laughter: "Yes, yes, this is love, we have to thank Mr. Qian for this old man!"
After speaking, several girls sat down next to the three people, and several people began to push the cups and change the lamps again.
Qian Zhen clapped his hands again when he saw that the few people present were about to drink, and the three waiters came in and put the three boxes in front of Xu Dong and them.
Xu Dong looked at Qian Zhen suspiciously and said, "Is this again?"
Qian Zhen said with a smile: "This is the room card, several people have drunk so much, let's just stay here for one night today, by the way, talk about love with the beauty!"
Xu Dong said: "I know the room card, but what is the box below?"
Qian Zhen said: "This is just a small gift!"
Xu Dong opened the box slightly, and saw that it was shining with gold, so he said to Qian Zhen: "This gift is not small!"
Qian Zhen smiled: "It's just a few books, not worth a few dollars!"
Xu Dong asked with a puzzled expression, "Book?"
Qian Zhen smiled: "Yes, there is a golden house in the book, and there is Yan Ruyu in the book, but it is just a few books!"
Xu Dong laughed: "Money always can speak, I like your character! Come on, come on, let's keep drinking and drinking!"
A few people drank again.
At this time on Tanghua's campus, Zhao Zhijie and Li Weiwei were sitting on a bench with headphones, Li Weiwei said to Zhao Zhijie: "This Qian Zhen is really an expert at sycophancy, saying that money and beauty is a violation of discipline, saying that career and love are ideals, do you police play like this?"
Zhao Zhijie was instantly embarrassed and didn't know how to answer.
Li Weiwei said again: "There is a golden house in the book, there is Yan Ruyu in the book, Yan Ruyu is real, the box that Qian Zhen gave them should be gold, and the shot is really generous enough, no wonder Team Leader Hai and Zhang Mufeng will eat behind closed doors in the morning, fortunately, Team Leader Hai let me hack them yesterday, otherwise this Shi Heng would really escape! Why do you say this Qian Zhen wants to help Shi Heng? What is their relationship?"
Zhao Zhijie shook his head and said: "I don't know, but there must be a greasy relationship between the three companies of Shiheng Finance, Jixiang Company, and Qian Group, otherwise Qian Zhen will definitely not come to the rescue." ”
Li Weiwei was a little annoyed on her face: "This Xu Dong is also damaged enough, not only did he install a pinhole camera in our hotel room, but he didn't even let go of the bathroom, so that Sister Yuxin and I couldn't go to the toilet in the hotel, what a bastard, such a person can still be a police chief, it seems that my previous opinion was right, you police are really not a good thing!"
Zhao Zhijie said angrily: "It's these black sheep who have ruined the reputation of the entire team, ten good policemen will not know about doing a hundred good things, but a bad policeman doing a bad thing can ruin the reputation of the entire team, people like him really should be cut with a thousand knives, and five horses will be divided!"
Li Weiwei saw Zhao Zhijie's angry appearance, and hurriedly said: "Don't be angry, your appearance is scary enough, I didn't say that the police are all bad people, the people in our group are very good, Team Leader Hai, Captain Liu, Zhang Mufeng and you are all good people, and there are still many good people, I know, I just said it casually." ”
Zhao Zhijie nodded and said: "I know, but letting someone like him exist in the police team and lead the team to break the team still makes people angry, if it weren't for the captain of the sea, we would have been killed by him this time." ”
Li Weiwei said: "Well, but it's still quite uncomfortable, it's inconvenient to say anything, and it makes it seem like we're criminals." Hopefully these days will end soon. ”
Zhao Zhijie said firmly: "Don't worry, it will be over soon, I have confidence in Team Leader Hai!"
The two of them chatted and listened at Tanghua University, and they didn't leave the campus and return to the hotel until Xu Dong returned to the hotel room.
