Chapter 145: Minister's Dinner (Part II)
Fortunately, Huaxia did not let Tian Guochang be buried, but awarded him the extremely rare rank of colonel, and after the opening up of Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, Tian Guochang was promoted to major general because of his deep qualifications.
"Mr. Tian, Tian Changxuan's Chinese characters are very well written, and I admire him very much. β
Harris nodded sincerely, smiling.
Tian Guochang pretended to be disdainful and got up and shook his head, glanced at his "dog", and teased:
"Minister Harris, don't look at this kid who looks like a dog, in fact, his belly is full of crooked ways, he is not a good fellow at all, and he is good for nothing but writing. β
Before the words fell, Tian Guochang, who was smiling, picked up the chopsticks, took a chopstick dish and sent it to the other party's bowl, and introduced with a smile:
"Come to the minister, try this traditional Chinese delicacy, spring rolls. β
In order to allow foreign guests to feel the enthusiasm of the Chinese people and eat without losing Western etiquette, Tian Guochang also specially set up chopsticks and placed a pair on each dish to prevent cross-infection.
Harris smiled, nodded slightly, and said:
"Mr. Tian, you are very polite, Huaxia really deserves to be a state of etiquette. β
Before he could finish speaking, Harris couldn't hold back his eyes as he stared at the contents of the bowl any longer, and his throat fluttered.
"Goo. β
Spring rolls spring rolls, naturally like spring, even Minister Harris has not eaten authentic Chinese spring rolls, and at this moment he was stunned by this slightly strange-looking delicacy.
With a few clicks, two or three small spring rolls fell into his stomach, and Minister Harris's eyes suddenly lit up:
"Groove, full of layering, crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, I don't know how much better than a burger sandwich!"
Originally, I thought that the so-called "Gourmet Heavenly Empire" was just a legend, but now it seems that it does live up to its name, and this is only one of the hundreds of thousands and millions of delicacies in China.
Tian Guochang smiled and smacked his tongue:
"Minister Harris, in fact, we have a lot of Chinese delicacies, and if you don't have a few decades, you would want to eat them all. β
Harris was suddenly stunned when he was chewing, and then he smiled brightly, and smiled awkwardly:
"Forget it, it's enough to eat a few once in a while. β
Decades?
That means that there are many more dishes in the whole of China than in the rest of the world?
Harris scratched his head in some surprise, and after a few seconds of silence, he continued to smile again, no longer dwelling on the matter of Chinese food.
Huh, fortunately, this major general of Tian Guochang is still a little easier to get along with, at least he can let me complete the task of getting along with Huaxia......
Harris breathed a long sigh of relief helplessly, and thought to himself in frustration:
"I don't know if the president is crazy, and he actually asked me to meet these Chinese generals again. β
That's right, due to the recent strong rise of Huaxia, even the United States can't sit idly by, so he asked Harris to come to find out the truth, but he didn't expect that he just landed and went to the toilet without paper, and was deeply frightened by Lin Haoyu-
That's right, you read that right, the entire central government of the United States is currently in an emergency, staring at Huaxia, for fear that there will be any problems, and the cause is just the words of Lin Haoyu, an "ordinary person".
Alas!
Harris rubbed his head with a bit of a headache, and with a forced smile he dealt with the scheming Huaxia people.
"Alas, the Chinese are so strange, and their speech is full of traps and twists. β
It's just that he has nothing to do, and in Harris's eyes, if he wants to talk about things, it's straightforward, so why bother with these polite words?
What a headache!
The young man on the side smiled humbly, got up and raised his glass, and said with a smile:
"Minister Harris is polite, it's just some Chinese characters. β
Having said that, the slight smile on the young man's face was very obvious, even some Chinese characters could not be written casually.
Hum!
Snorted a little frivolously, Tian Changxuan smirked proudly:
"If it weren't for that Lin Haoyu, I would be the youngest professor in the entire Kyoto University......"
That's right, this mediocre-looking guy is also an honorary professor of the Department of Chinese at Kyoto University, although he barely earned it by virtue of Tian Guochang's rank of major general, but the title of the youngest professor still fell to him.
It's just that the Chinese Department of Kyoto University suddenly descended a Lin Haoyu from the sky and forcibly took away this honorary title.
Tian Changxuan showed a slight contempt on his face, sat back in his seat proudly, and sneered slightly:
"By the way, I wonder how the youngest professor in the Chinese Department of Kyoto University has been doing recently?"
While speaking, Tian Changxuan smashed his mouth, ate a mouthful of food, and frowned and thought about it.
Tian Guochang was stunned for a moment, laughed a few times, shook his head and smiled helplessly:
"Changxuan, are you still thinking about this matter?"
Alas, Tian Guochang sighed slightly, he didn't expect that he had been on the battlefield for a lifetime, and he didn't even beat him down during the special period of ten years, but his child's good face made him fall again and again.
originally thought that this title was just made up by some boring guys on the Internet, but Tian Changxuan took it seriously.
"But it's a bit tricky. β
Frowning slightly, after thinking about it carefully, both father and son had a little headache.
This guy who appeared out of thin air, they didn't know anything about his background or strength, let alone how to start.
What's more, Tian Guochang is a major general, and now at this age, he naturally will not offend a newcomer like Lin Haoyu for such an illusory title.
Harris couldn't understand the Chinese language, and seeing that the two had been discussing for a long time, he had to eat and drink in embarrassment.
......
After a long time, there was a knock on the door.
"Dada. β
In an instant, a smile rang out from the entire silent box.
"Hey, here comes my good friend. β
Harris laughed, smacked his tongue and got up a little liberated, and immediately opened the door and looked at Lin Haoyu and Xu Hanrong in front of him.
Raising his eyebrows with joy, Harris smiled and pulled Lin Haoyu's shoulder, and introduced to Tian Guochang and Tian Changxuan:
"This is the good friend I told you about, don't look at him without identity, but he is really knowledgeable. β
Well?
Tian Guochang frowned slightly, the pupils behind his eyelids suddenly shrank for a while, and he secretly thought to himself in surprise:
"Lin Haoyu, it shouldn't be such a coincidence, maybe it's a duplicate name?"
After all, there are thousands of Lin Haoyu in the world, but Lin Haoyu, who has become an S-level superstar in China, is just one, and it is even more impossible to come back to participate in the private banquet organized by Minister Harris.
was silent, and after Lin Haoyu turned around, Tian Guochang saw his face clearly.
Rumble!
"This guy, it's really Lin Haoyu!"
Tian Guochang was stunned, staring at the other party in horror, twisting his neck, and glanced sideways at Tian Changxuan with an expressionless face.
Naturally, Tian Changxuan also recognized Lin Haoyu, the "youngest professor of Chinese at Kyoto University", and stared at him with a gloomy and indifferent face.
Lin Haoyu smiled politely, bowed and said:
"I'm sorry, I didn't know there were two of you here, so I was in a hurry to knock on the door. β
Xu Hanrong on the side gasped in surprise, stared at Lin Haoyu, who suddenly made a 180-degree turn, and leaned in suspiciously and asked:
"Eh, why didn't you give any face to those hall bosses just now, but now you're so respectful?"
Could it be that this environment has made this kid wake up and stop being so arrogant.
Lin Haoyu snorted coldly, turned his head sideways, and said calmly:
"Are you stupid for me?"
Silly?
Xu Hanrong cupped his hands in front of his chest curiously, nodded, raised his eyebrows and said:
"In that case, why did you ignore the group of bigwigs in the hall and leave without pretending to know?"
If the big guys in the hall felt that Lin Haoyu was disrespectful to them if he didn't take the initiative to say hello, it is estimated that Lin Haoyu would really have to finish the game.
Lin Haoyu smiled treacherously, turned around to cover the corner of his mouth close to Tian Guochang, and said with a smile:
"This guy is the person received by Minister Harris, anyway, he should be the highest status person in this place, right?"
After all, this is the foreign minister of the United States, and the status of the Chinese foreign minister of the same level is not as high as him.
Of course, for a hero like Lin Haoyu who saved the prestige of the United States, sending a foreign minister may not be impossible to win over.
After being stunned for a few seconds, Xu Hanrong suddenly realized, and then burst out laughing, looked at Lin Haoyu in surprise, and said:
"You're too shrewd, and it's not a good thing......"
In fact, because a lieutenant general had a birthday today, he happened to stay in the hall, but Lin Haoyu directly ignored it and walked straight over.
If Xu Hanrong hadn't walked a little slower, he really hadn't seen how terrible the lieutenant general's gloomy face was.
Xu Hanrong smiled and said:
"Lin Haoyu, do you know what the group of people downstairs did just now?"
"What for?"
Lin Haoyu frowned slightly and asked contemptuously, not taking it to heart at all. Anyway, I can't control myself, who I love, and what does it have to do with him?
Lin Haoyu sneered a few times, shook his head slightly, frowned and sighed The world is declining, and now even a little secretary agent who serves tea and water has learned to look at people's power and flattery.
"It's just the scum of the world, and there is no backbone at all!"
Not to mention that he didn't know anything about the big guy, even if the No. 1 came over, I, Lin Haoyu, still swaggered straight over!
Xu Hanrong sneered a few times, pretended to mysteriously approached Lin Haoyu's ear, and smiled evilly:
"ββThe one who congratulated Lieutenant General Chen on his birthday, the old man sitting in the middle was. β
In other words, it is a whole lot bigger than the major general just now!
Ga!
Hearing this, the heartache on Lin Haoyu's face froze instantly, and the next second he put on a flattering smile and pulled Xu Hanrong and said:
"Let's go, let's go and pay homage to the old man! Oh, look, you really deserve to be Lieutenant General Chen, his body is very tough, and at first glance, he has an extraordinary temperament, mighty and longevity......"
