Chapter 588: Provincial No. 1
Ge Taitong and other judges did not participate in Xiao Tao's award ceremony, they all left by car from the special passage behind, but when they arrived at the entrance of the passage, they were intercepted, and the person who intercepted them turned out to be a group of policemen with loaded guns.
Looking out of the car window, Ge Taitong was stunned, there was a black pressure outside, the whole arena was surrounded, and the police department was still carrying some heavy weapons, as if they were doing something big.
There was no big commotion in the arena, what kind of big action did the police do for no reason?
Ge Taitong suddenly remembered the young man who scolded him under the ring, and another young man said that he was absolutely inseparable from the arena, and then he felt that one of the young men was a little familiar, and it seemed that he was the son of No. 1 in Guangyun Province.
Ge Taitong broke out in a cold sweat on the spot, as the No. 1 master of Guangyun, he had met with the No. 1 person in Guangyun Province, and he also met the son of the No. 1 person at that time. He was a little remorseful, he covered his head angrily in the ring, and he didn't recognize Pan Yucheng for the first time, so that it was not easy to end up with this big-headed Buddha.
Ge Taitong is not afraid of the government, as long as he wants to leave, the sky is high and the sea is wide and he can fly, how can the police stop him? However, his foundation is in Guangyun, his five-hand gate is in Guangyun, his industry is in Guangyun, and his wife and children are all in Guangyun.
Ge Taitong loves face very much, but at this point, how much is face worth? Compared with the foundation he has built for most of his life, face is worthless.
There was no way, Ge Taitong had to obediently cooperate with the police, anyway, the matter didn't make a big deal, Xiao Tao also accepted the award well, and the police couldn't do anything to him, at most he went to the police station. He didn't break the law, and he was able to come out soon, which is not a big deal.
And the other judges also did not dare to resist, many guns were pointed at them, no matter how good their ability was, they did not dare to joke with so many bullets, no matter what happened, their consulate would also come forward to take people, and they could not take the risk themselves.
It's just that these multi-channel masters were taken away by the police, and this face was a little embarrassing, and they were also thrown to Siberia.
Sun Chuanzhong celebrated Xiao Tao's grand banquet to celebrate Xiao Tao's victory, and also congratulated him on earning billions of Japanese dollars in this competition, and cutting off a large piece of Japanese meat.
Sun Chuanzhong invited people from all walks of life, whether it was martial arts people, wealthy businessmen, or even high-ranking government officials, martial arts people were naturally invited, and wealthy businessmen were also happy to come.
Although the wealthy merchants are not from the rivers and lakes, they are happy to participate in martial arts events, and many of their bodyguards are hired by the masters of the rivers and lakes, and the rich always like to deal with the people in the rivers and lakes. This is a law since ancient times, rich people need protection, security, and military support, and the masters of the rivers and lakes can do all this.
People in the government are reluctant to associate with people in the rivers and lakes, this interaction refers to public communication, and who knows in private?
According to common sense, no one in the government will participate in the grand event of the rivers and lakes, but this time to everyone's surprise, the government not only came, but also several high-level people, one of whom was actually the number one person in the province.
The reason for the high-level is very simple and reasonable, that is, the Chinese fight for the country and win the championship of international competitions, and it is necessary for the high-level of the local government to come out and praise it.
Normally, one or two high-level officials from Shenhai City are enough to save face, and there is no need to dispatch the provincial No. 1. However, it was none other than Xiao Tao who won the championship, but Xiao Tao, who had a lot to do with the Han family, this was different, and the provincial No. 1 took the initiative to come out.
When a group of high-level officials appeared at the celebration banquet, the atmosphere of the whole venue immediately became very warm, and the wealthy businessmen got up to welcome, but those people in the rivers and lakes were very calm and didn't think it was a big deal, they didn't like to deal with the government, and the distance between the two was that the river water did not interfere with the well water.
Xiao Tao doesn't like this kind of complex scene very much, but as the main figure, he was still pushed to the forefront, greeted Sun Chuanzhong and others, accepted the praise and encouragement of the high-level, listened to a lot of political words that seemed to be understood, and took a lesson in patriotism, which made the whole person a little confused.
This kind of formalistic entertainment is too hard for Xiao Tao, he would rather go to the ring to fight with martial arts masters, and it is a hundred times more comfortable than this kind of restrained entertainment.
Fortunately, these high-level executives were soon welcomed into a luxurious private room by Sun Chuanzhong, which relieved Xiao Tao's difficulties.
Although Sun Chuanzhong is a native of the rivers and lakes, he has served in the provincial association for many years, has dealt with people in the government a lot, and knows how to entertain such high-level high-level people. He naturally arranged an independent private room for the high-level to enjoy, if the high-level sat with the people in the hall, although it would not be messy, but it would be very embarrassing.
Xiao Tao is the protagonist of the whole banquet, with the title of Asian martial arts champion on his head, and the whole person is shining, and countless wealthy businessmen have come up to talk, all of them want to make friends with him, hoping to recruit him to serve him.
Of course, the prices offered by these wealthy businessmen were more attractive than one another, but all of them were rejected by Xiao Tao, Xiao Tao did not have the habit of sending people under the fence, and he would not send people under the fence.
There were a few wealthy businessmen who felt good about themselves, and they wanted to pester Xiao Tao in an attempt to persuade Xiao Tao, but they found that Pan Yucheng was sitting next to Xiao Tao and glared at them, and immediately left with a lot of urine.
Pan Yucheng's lawless Ya Nei Guangyun is relatively famous, how could these rich businessmen not recognize them? These rich businessmen have been in the society for decades, and they are all human spirits, since Xiao Tao has a few local big yamen to protect them, it means that the origin is not small, who would dare to provoke them?
As the saying goes, the people do not fight with the rich, and the rich do not fight with the officials, which is exactly this truth.
After leaving those rich merchants, it was Guangyun's turn to come up, and the heads or elders of various sects and factions were all masters with status and strength, and they all came up to toast, and they also wanted to make friends with Xiao Tao by the way.
In addition to Xiao Tao killing Japanese masters and winning the championship of the Asian Martial Arts Competition, the Guangyun martial arts world looked at it differently. There is a more important reason, that is, Master Cifeng is Xiao Tao's uncle, and this alone is enough for these martial arts masters to admire.
It's a pity that Master Cifeng didn't attend Xiao Tao's celebration banquet, and the martial arts masters present were quite disappointed, but they also figured it out, the masters of the realm of deep and deep hall are basically in a state of seclusion, and they don't easily attend any banquets.
Cifeng Shitai did not attend, but Han Yixue came, and she has been accompanying Xiao Tao, which makes Xiao Tao very happy.
But there was one person who was very unhappy, he was Qiao Tianmen, seeing that the woman he fancied was following Xiao Tao, he was so angry that he gritted his teeth, if it wasn't for Chen Yitong pulling, it was hard for him to imagine what he would do.
There was another person who didn't seem to be very happy, and that person was Qu Qingying, who was sitting in the corner together, drinking quietly, although she was calm on the surface, it made people see that her mood was not very high.
Jiang Yichen was by Qu Qingying's side, he wanted to coax Qu Qingying to be happy, but who knew that Qu Qingying didn't care much, he wanted to accompany Qu Qingying to drink, but Qu Qingying didn't clink glasses with him, which made him a little embarrassed.
After three rounds of drinking, Sun Chuanzhong, who was accompanying him in the luxurious private room, came out, with a look of joy on his face, and asked Xiao Tao to take Han Yixue and Han Shuai into the luxurious private room, saying that someone wanted to see them.
At the celebration banquet, Xiao Tao has been accompanied by Han Yixue's sisters and brothers, and they happened to go in together, Sun Chuanzhong sent Xiao Tao and others to the door of the private room, but he did not go in.
There are only two people in the luxury private room, one is the number one person in the province, and the other is Pan Yucheng, I don't know when Pan Yucheng came in, but the other high-level members are not there, and they are estimated to have left.
"Han Shuai, it's been a long time. Provincial No. 1 sat on the sofa with a smile on his face, and immediately got up and greeted, "Come and sit, all your own people, don't be restrained." ”
"Uncle Pang. Han Shuai shouted, it was obvious that he knew the provincial number one, and he called the provincial number one by his elders, which showed that the relationship between the provincial number one and the Han family was also quite deep.
After Xiao Tao and the others sat down, Pan Yucheng, who was rampant in Guangyun, became a little guy pouring flowers and handing water here, and he was also a master who did not dare to be presumptuous in front of his father.
The attitude of the provincial No. 1 was very kind, and asked Han Shuai about the physical condition of the old man Han, and cared about whether Han Shuai was playing well in Guangyun, and then talked to Xiao Tao.
The provincial No. 1 didn't talk much with Xiao Tao, just to express Xiao Tao's joy of winning glory for the country, said a few words of encouragement, and then hoped that Xiao Tao would stay in Guangyun to develop and enter the Provincial Martial Arts Association.
However, Xiao Tao declined on the grounds that he was focused on his studies.
In fact, Xiao Tao also thought about staying in Guangyun, although he has not been in Guangyun for a long time, he has already laid a good foundation, whether in the martial arts world or in society, he has a certain number of contacts. Moreover, the energy of these connections is very strong, and Xiao Tao is also a good place if he wants to develop in Guangyun.
However, Guangyun is a very prestigious martial arts province, with a strong martial arts atmosphere, many underground boxing arenas, and a wealth of martial arts masters, but it is not a good place for people with secret methods to yearn for, Xiao Tao majored in secret methods, and he couldn't stay.
The reason is very simple, Guangyun is in southern China, facing the sea, the humidity is extremely heavy, the air is a little turbid, and there is a little less aura, so it is not a good place to practice secret methods.
Provincial No. 1 expressed pity, chatted with Han Shuai a few more words, then got up to say goodbye to everyone, and left the hotel with Pan Yucheng.
"Dad, how is this Xiao Tao? Is it the same as I guessed?" Pan Yucheng asked as he drove.
"Whether Xiao Tao is a core member of the Han family or not, it's hard to say. Provincial No. 1 sat back in the back seat, lost in thought.
