Chapter 166: Thunder
Thank you very much for the persistence of Brother Stariver every day, Little Orange is grateful, thank you! ~
At around 5 o'clock in the afternoon, Ling Chen was ready to take Fan Qiang to the Minghao Villa for a banquet. Under Tang Zhiqiang's connections, Yang Donglai, deputy director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, Guan Yongqiang, the top leader of the Municipal Cultural Bureau, and Cao Jun, the top leader of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, had already agreed to Ling Chen's invitation, and the dinner was scheduled for 6 o'clock in the evening, so Ling Chen had to prepare in advance.
The reason why he brought Fan Qiang instead of Li Xue and Li Gang was because his cousin Ling Youneng was more intimate with Li Xue, and the formal banquet naturally couldn't take Ling Youneng there, so he let Li Xue look at Ling Youneng. As for Li Gang, his personality is impatient after all, and he still has a lot of deficiencies in receiving people. The most important thing is that Li Gang can't drink, Ling Chen is afraid that Li Gang will lie down after a few drinks with several leaders, which will be too embarrassing.
As for Fan Qiang, he is cautious, although he is not good at words, he is active and knows how to read words and feelings. Especially the amount of alcohol is very good, this Northeast man has nothing to say about the wine, according to his own words, he has at least one and a half catties of liquor when he drinks liquor, so Ling Chen naturally wants to bring Fan Qiang, the god of wine, to support himself, after all, dealing with several city bureau leaders, the wine can not be ambiguous.
After explaining, Ling Chen drove Fan Qiang to the famous Haoshan Villa, and Li Gang was a little disappointed in his heart. Under the guidance of his baby sister Li Xue, he realized many of his shortcomings, so he secretly made up his mind to change himself.
When I came to Minghao Villa, it was already around 5:30, after parking the car under the leadership of the security guard. Wen Wanyi was already waiting at the door with a smile, which made Ling Chen feel very honored.
"Hello sister-in-law!" Ling Chen shouted affectionately.
"Xiaochen, it's here!" Wen Wanyi took Ling Chen's hand affectionately and said softly. Wen Wanyi wore a decent women's suit, showing off her almost perfect figure, her long black hair like a waterfall, showing her classic oriental beauty all the time, like a fairy descending to earth. A pair of crisp white wedges. The atmosphere is full, and it makes her perfect body vividly displayed, long and graceful.
It can be said that Wen Wanyi is the most amorous woman Ling Chen has ever seen in his previous life and present life. There is no dazzling appearance, but her delicate and moving face makes people feel more and more amazing the more they look at it. She applied a little powder, which made people feel like the Nine Heavens Xuannu descended to earth, and Ling Chen also noticed that since she first saw Wen Wanyi, her temperament has been slowly changing, making people feel amiable.
"Who is this?" Wen Wanyi asked softly.
"Sister-in-law, he is my brother, his name is Fan Qiang, although we are not brothers. But the relationship is better than a brother, just like me and Brother Tang. Ling Chen said solemnly. Brother Qiang, this is the sister-in-law I often mention to you, and you can also call it sister-in-law. ”
"Hello!" Wen Wanyi smiled and stretched out her right hand.
"Hello sister-in-law." Fan Qiang said a little excitedly, and then gently shook hands with Wen Wanyi.
Wen Wanyi kept Fan Qiang's appearance in mind. Her first impression of Fan Qiang was very good, she keenly caught Fan Qiang's surprise when he looked at her for the first time, but Fan Qiang was very able to control himself and shake hands with himself calmly, which also saw his extraordinary, after all, a man who can remain calm in front of her is really very rare.
After shaking hands. Wen Wanyi took Ling Chen's hand cordially, and slowly walked towards the reserved box, and the customers and waiters who passed by saw the proprietress personally holding a young man's hand, they were all surprised, and secretly remembered Ling Chen's appearance.
"Xiao Chen, you are amazing. Tell my sister-in-law, what reward do you want for this admission to the first middle school of the market? Wen Wanyi half-squinted her eyes and looked at Ling Chen gently.
"Hehe, sister-in-law, I heard Brother Tang say that you didn't prepare a surprise for me a long time ago?"
"Little ghost." Wen Wanyi affectionately tapped Ling Chen's forehead with her jade-like fingers. "I said I would give you a surprise, but I didn't expect Zhiqiang to tell you in advance."
"Brother Tang hasn't told me what it is."
"Oh, then I'll give you a reward after eating first, I'm sure I'll surprise you." Wen Wanyi smiled and said mysteriously, making Ling Chen look forward to it.
"Where's Brother Tang?" Ling Chen asked aloud.
"I'm having a big man in the city at a banquet right now, and it's probably coming soon. When the time comes, you will have a toast. Wen Wanyi looked at Ling Chen, her eyes full of appreciation.
In the past two months, the development of Minghao Villa has become more and more rapid, and even the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee often comes here to relax consumption, I have to say that this is a great encouragement to Minghao Villa. And under Ling Chen's suggestion, the reputation of Minghao Villa gradually became prominent, at least when it comes to Minghao Villa, the official wives will not think that it is a peach-colored place, and some officials have personally brought their wives to consume, so some official wives have become loyal customers of Minghao Villa, and they are more trusting and relieved here.
Tang Zhiqiang has even purchased this area, and while the famous villa is growing, all kinds of entertainment facilities are also complete, so it has attracted a large number of high-ranking officials and dignitaries. Even Tang Zhiqiang has already broken ground to build a golf course, but the investment is huge, and the construction time is also very long, and it is estimated that it will take more than a year to build it completely.
After exchanging pleasantries for a while, it was almost 6 o'clock in the afternoon, so Ling Chen had to go to receive several powerful leaders who went to the banquet.
The first one to come was Yang Donglai, deputy director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, Yang Donglai was very satisfied with Ling Chen's personal reception, and after greeting Ling Chen with a smile, Ling Chen invited him into a luxurious box.
As soon as she entered the box, Wen Wanyi greeted her with a smile, with her background and net worth, she naturally would not grovel to the leaders of the city bureau, so she came specially to save face for Ling Chen. Seeing the legendary proprietress of Minghao Villa, Yang Donglai, who was stunned for a while, smiled and said hello, but he was shocked by Wen Wanyi's appearance and temperament. There has always been a saying in Xiangyang City, that is, it is easy to meet Tang Zhiqiang, but it is very difficult to meet his fairy-like wife, but now that Wen Wanyi has come to greet Ling Chen in person, it is conceivable that Ling Chen's status in the hearts of their couple is much higher than he thought, so Wang Donglai made up his mind, said a few words to Ling Chen with a smile, and handed his business cards to Fan Qiang and Wen Wanyi respectively.
After greeting for a while, Ling Chen first asked Fan Qiang and Wen Wanyi to entertain Wang Donglai. He went to greet Guan Yongqiang of the Municipal Bureau of Culture and Cao Jun of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau.
Guan Yongqiang and Cao Jun arrived at Minghao Villa almost at the same time, they had only drunk with Ling Chen once, so they still had an impression of Ling Chen, if it wasn't for Tang Zhiqiang's face today. Who would promise a nobody's invitation?
It's just that their qi cultivation kung fu is very good, although they are a little kind of upright to Ling Chen, but the kung fu on the scene is still very good.
Kwan Yongqiang is the director of the Cultural Affairs Bureau, in his 40s, short in height and relatively normal in size, and he walks very imposingly. Cao Jun is the director of the Bureau of Industry and Commerce, with an average figure, wearing a pair of gold-rimmed eyes, and looks more elegant and elegant. It's just that what is impressive is his general's belly, which is like a pregnant woman who is 6 or 7 months pregnant, which is very spectacular.
The two of them, like Wang Donglai, were a little surprised and stunned when they saw Wen Wanyi, but they quickly adjusted their mentality. Smiling and greeting Wen Wanyi, at this time, they looked at Ling Chen's expression was no longer so condescending, as if Ling Chen invited them to dinner was a gift from them to Ling Chen, and finally they were willing to formally look at the half-grown child in front of them.
Ling Chen deliberately changed into a suit today, so he looked a lot more mature. Although it is very tiring and hot to wear a suit on a hot day, it is to make a good impression on several leaders. Ling Chen naturally had to suffer this sin, but fortunately, there was air conditioning in the box, so Ling Chen was no longer so uncomfortable.
Wen Wanyi quickly beckoned the waiter to serve the food, and soon all kinds of delicacies were served on the table, and dishes with all colors and flavors were placed on the table, which made people appetize. Full of mouthful.
Ling Chen began to beckon several leaders to start using chopsticks, and several leaders also symbolically sandwiched a few dishes on Wen Wanyi's face, but in addition to Wang Donglai, Guan Yongqiang and Cao Jun were a little upright, although there was a smile on their faces. But his eyes were cold.
Wen Wanyi naturally saw it, so she personally beckoned the waiter to pour wine for several leaders, and then filled her porcelain cup with a smile, and said to them with a smile: "Several leaders can find time out of their busy schedules to attend my brother's dinner. After speaking, Wen Wanyi drank the small cup of Moutai.
Several leaders toasted Wen Wanyi in person, where would they continue to serve it? So they drank all the glasses. After the first glass of wine, the meal slowly became lively.
Ling Chen was very grateful to Wen Wanyi for working hard for her own affairs, secretly keeping her kindness to herself in her heart, and reminding herself that she must repay her when she had the opportunity.
Fan Qiang's amount of wine is not to be said, plus the wine is good, two glasses with the leaders for a glass, and soon several leaders opened their hearts to drink and eat, and the dinner became more and more enthusiastic.
At around seven o'clock, Wen Wanyi saw that everyone was drinking about the same, so she euphemistically said the words of asking the leaders to help Ling Chen, after all, as long as these leaders nodded, it would be much easier to crack down on piracy and counterfeiting.
Except for Wang Donglai, the other two leaders all played haha and did not respond positively, of course, they still had to say a few words on the scene. But with Wen Wanyi's emotional intelligence and eyesight, how can you not see that they are perfunctory? There is no way, cracking down on piracy will definitely touch the nerves and interests of all sides, besides, Ling Chen is still in conflict with Yang Gangjun, who is about to be promoted to the top of the Municipal Bureau of Culture, with their character and thoughts, how can they agree?
"By the way, boss lady, where is Mr. Tang?" The pot-bellied Cao Jun asked lightly.
"Zhiqiang is giving Mayor Chen a banquet." Wen Wanyi responded lightly, she also knew that several leaders had always refused to give happy words, but it was because the various relationships were too complicated. However, it is foreseeable that after this meal, the pirated 'Chenxi' brand will definitely be more restrained, at least Yang Gangjun will give an answer.
"Okay, let's hurry up and pay tribute to Mayor Chen and Mr. Tang."
"Yes, yes."
Naturally, several leaders would not give up the opportunity to contact Mayor Chen, so they immediately got up and held their wine glasses and wanted to go to the next box to toast Mayor Chen.
Wen Wanyi motioned for Ling Chen to also take the cup, so that she could introduce Mayor Chen, after all, even if she was familiar, it would still be of great benefit to Ling Chen's future development.
Ling Chen smiled strangely, then picked up the wine glass and followed behind a few leaders, and under the leadership of Wen Wanyi, he came to the box where Mayor Chen was entertained.
After receiving Mayor Chen's signal, Wen Wanyi pushed open the door of the box, and several leaders walked in with great joy, each with a sincere and honored smile on their faces.
Ling Chen followed behind, and as soon as he entered the box, Mayor Chen Qing asked in surprise, "Xiao Chen, why are you here too?" ”
"Wow!" The eyes of everyone in the box were towards Ling Chen's body.
Tang Zhiqiang and his wife, Wang Donglai, and Guan Yongqiang and Cao Jun, who had been holding it all the time, all looked at Ling Chen with extremely surprised eyes, especially Guan Yongqiang and Cao Jun, who almost fell off their eyes.
What's going on?
