According to Zhong Weirong's arrangement, the guest of this speech is undoubtedly President Guo of the Sheng Tea Industry Association. He is one of the few guests who has something to do with the tea industry, and his own position is weighty enough, so he is very suitable as a speech.

In fact, Chairman Guo himself was ready to make a speech, and for him this was just a trivial matter.

However, after Mr. Zhilu Daoqiao also attended the opening ceremony, President Guo refused to give a speech on stage anyway. Zhong Weirong, who had no choice, could only go to Xiao Ping and ask the boss to persuade President Guo to give a speech.

Xiao Ping hurriedly found President Guo and said to him sincerely: "President Guo, we originally arranged for you to be the guest of speech, Manager Zhong should have also greeted you, why can't you do it now?" ”

"Mr. Xiao, it's not like I want to break my promise and get fat." President Guo's face was full of embarrassment: "I really didn't know in advance that Mr. Qiao Laoye would also come, so I dared to agree to be the guest of honor." But now that Mr. Qiao has attended the opening ceremony, how can I give a speech in front of his old man? I will be scolded to death by my colleagues when this news comes out, please don't embarrass me! ”

Seeing that President Guo had talked about this, where could Xiao Ping force him to speak, he couldn't help but say in distress: "What can I do!" ”

President Guo also knew that Xiao Ping was embarrassed, so he leaned closer and whispered: "Mr. Xiao, now that Mr. Qiao is present, it is not appropriate for you to call anyone else to give a speech, and if it is rumored that Lu will be scolded to death by his peers!" So ......"

"So the most suitable person is Old Man Qiao?" Before Chairman Guo finished speaking, Xiao Ping understood what he meant.

President Guo nodded like pounding garlic, but Xiao Ping had a bitter smile on his face: "President Guo." Since you got here, you heard the old man say a few words? I want him to speak in front of so many people. Just kidding, right? ”

In any case, Mr. Qiao is the only one who is suitable for a speech. Mr. Xiao, look at it! Chairman Guo put down this sentence and went into the crowd very unrighteously.

Xiao Ping, who was helpless, thought about it for a while, and finally decided to try his luck with Old Man Qiao.

"No way!" After listening to Xiao Ping's words, Old Man Qiao expressed his meaning concisely.

"Hey, old man, you can't do this!" Xiao Ping said anxiously: "As long as you are here, others will not dare to speak." The guest speech is the highlight of the ceremony, you can't do it! Today is a big day in the tea garden, and there can be no mistakes! ”

Listening to Xiao Ping, it also makes sense. Old Man Qiao couldn't help but be a little shaken.

Seeing this, Xiao Ping, who was observing the words and expressions on the side, hurriedly struck while the iron was hot and said: "Besides, the roasted tea skills learned by those young people outside are all passed down from you." According to the old saying, you are their grandfather. On such a special day, you should also say some words of encouragement to those young people who are about to show up in the roasted tea business, right? After all, it is not easy to go down this road, and the encouragement of their seniors is very important to them! ”

Xiao Ping's last words touched Old Man Qiao, and the old man hesitated for a moment and finally nodded: "Okay!" ”

Seeing that Old Man Qiao finally agreed to speak, Xiao Ping was also secretly relieved. Hurriedly said to Zhong Weirong: "Tell President Guo quickly, just say that Mr. Qiao has agreed, and ask him to announce the good news to everyone!" ”

There was a reason why Xiao Ping asked Chairman Guo to announce the news, and only he was present who knew the status of Old Man Qiao in the tea industry. When it was announced, President Guo would naturally explain the identity of the old man to the guests, and he could also strengthen the momentum of the tea garden by the way.

In fact, Xiao Ping did not do this out of selfishness. The reputation of the tea garden is also all about promoting the art of roasting tea better. If President Guo announced Mr. Qiao's status in the tea industry in public, at least he could let the students know the truth. Roasted tea is a promising career that can boost their interest in the industry.

Really. When President Guo knew that Old Man Qiao was going to make a speech, he gladly accepted Zhong Weirong's request to announce this time to everyone.

President Guo came to everyone with a spring breeze on his face and began to introduce himself into the microphone: "Hello everyone, my name is Guo Shiqiang, I am the president of the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Tea Association Association, and I feel very honored to be invited by Mr. Xiao Ping today to participate in the opening ceremony of the Xianhu Tea Garden. ”

When the guests saw someone talking, they also fell silent. Everyone knows that there will be guest speeches in the Daoist Society, and Guo Shiqiang, as the president of the Tea Association, is only right for him to deliver a speech.

However, everyone guessed wrong, and President Guo quickly changed his words and said, "Now, please allow me to introduce to you today's guest speakers!" He is a famous roasted tea master in my country and a leading figure in the tea industry. The Longjing tea he fried was deeply loved by the country's leaders, and some people were once willing to pay 100,000 yuan for a tael to buy it, but now it has reached the point where there is no market! This roasted tea master is - Qiao Yunshan, Mr. Qiao. Everyone is welcome! ”

Guo Shi's ability to emphasize the atmosphere is really good. This series of beautiful words made everyone very curious about Master Qiao, who was about to come out to give a speech. Especially those students, when they knew that the original roasted tea industry could still have such a high achievement, their enthusiasm for this profession was even higher.

Everyone was anxious to see the honor of this master, and they began to applaud. In the warm applause, Old Man Qiao, who was dressed plainly, with a wrinkled face and a somewhat shriveled figure, like an old tree, appeared on the stage.

Don't look at Old Man Qiao's appearance, he looks like an ordinary old farmer, but his appearance is exactly in line with everyone's imagination of roasted tea masters. After all, in everyone's minds, tea is like a humble gentleman who is calm and calm, and an old man like Old Man Qiao is in line with the style of a roasted tea master. If you change to a fat old man with a fat head and big ears and a shiny face, Guo Shiqiang's hard publicity just now will definitely be greatly discounted.

So everyone's applause became louder, and everyone's eyes fell on Old Man Qiao, wondering what Lu Dao, a famous master in the tea industry, would say to everyone.

Old Man Qiao regretted it a little when he came out, he really didn't expect that there would be so many guests at this opening ceremony. The opening of the tea garden on the Lion Rock side is to set off a few strings of firecrackers and invite nearby neighbors to have a casual meal at home, how can there be such a big pomp?

Old Man Qiao, who was unprepared, couldn't help but flinch a little when he thought of speaking to so many people. But the old man is stubborn, since he has promised Xiao Ping, he will definitely do it. He walked up to the microphone, looked at everyone with a stiff expression, and after a while he said, "Hello everyone!" ”

Seeing that Old Man Qiao began to speak, everyone waited earnestly to hear what he would say next, and the scene became quieter.

What everyone didn't expect was that this made Old Man Qiao even more nervous. He was silent for a while, and finally thought of something to say, and said three words to the group of young roasted tea students: "Study hard!" ”

After saying these three words, Old Man Qiao felt that he had nothing to say anymore, so Chang Chang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's over!" ”

Leaving the last three words, Old Man Qiao turned around and left, leaving behind a bunch of stunned guests. The old man was a little uncomfortable in front of so many people, and it was more comfortable to go back to a corner where no one paid attention to him and drink tea.

To say that the most embarrassing thing is Guo Shiqiang, who has been standing by the microphone, I really didn't expect Old Man Qiao's speech to be so strange. However, Lao Guo does have the potential to be a firefighter, looking at the old man Qiao who was leaving quickly and the guests looking at each other below, he suddenly had an idea and stood behind the microphone without hesitation.

"Ha Luha, Mr. Qiao's speech is really concise and clear. Don't be surprised, the old man has always been a taciturn character. As far as I know, Vice President Liu of the National Tea Industry Association once visited Mr. Qiao, and the two talked for three hours! Guo Shiqiang stopped here and deliberately sold a pass, and then said with a smile: "But the three hours were all about Vice President Liu, and Mr. Qiao didn't say a word from beginning to end!" ”

Guo Shiqiang's words caused a burst of laughter, and also made everyone understand that Old Man Qiao could say nine words at the opening ceremony, which showed that he was already very face-saving. In this laugh, the original little embarrassment disappeared without a trace.

Seeing that his words were working well, Guo Shiqiang said to those students again: "I can see that Old Man Qiao has high expectations for you, otherwise he wouldn't want you to study hard." To the uninitiated, roasted tea may seem boring, but as long as you get in touch with the essence of it, you will know what an amazing industry it is, and it is very promising. As long as you put in the effort, you will definitely be rewarded accordingly! ”

"This President Guo is very helpful!" Xiao Ping listened to Guo Shiqiang's words in his ears, and said to Zhong Weirong beside him with a smile: "Tomorrow, in the name of the company, I will make a donation to the Tea Association." In addition, I will send two taels of tea leaves prepared in advance to President Guo personally, since he is the president of the Tea Association, he should know the weight of this gift. ”

Zhong Weirong wrote down Xiao Ping's words, and at this time, Old Man Qiao came back. Xiao Ping hurriedly greeted him and said with a wry smile: "Old man, your speech is really strong, a total of nine words, it is definitely the shortest speech in history!" ”

To Xiao Ping's ridicule, Old Man Qiao just snorted coldly and replied, and then said to himself: "I want to go back!" ”

"Now?" Xiao Ping said in surprise: "The ceremony is not over yet, or I will drive you back tomorrow!" ”

The old man also knew that Xiao Ping, as the master, was inappropriate to leave at this time, so he just shook his head and said, "No need to send it, I'll go back by myself!" ”

Although Old Man Qiao said so, how could Xiao Ping let him go back to Lion Rock alone? Or decided to send the old man back in person. He asked Zhong Weirong to explain to the guests on his behalf, and then drove the old man back to Lion Rock.

Xiao Ping had just driven the Land Rover out of the farm when he saw several cars coming towards him. Seeing the license plates of these cars, his brow immediately furrowed. (To be continued......)
