Chapter 267: Birthday Greetings (5)
Chapter 498: Birthday Greetings (5)
"My friend was also obtained by accident, and he didn't know how to do it, so he just cheapened me!" Leng Binghan smiled and said very casually.
Wei Chensong hesitated for a moment, took the red silk bag in Leng Binghan's hand, and carefully spread it on the desk, his performance also aroused the curiosity of many people, and they all gathered around, wanting to see what kind of good things could make him so interested.
With the red silk unfolding little by little, I saw that under the background of the red silk, it was a very psychic and clear spirit stone, the color was like a broken egg yolk, the stone skin was slightly transparent, the texture was exquisitely clear, and there were fine and clear radish lines, it was the most cherished Tianhuang jelly in Tianhuang stone.
Looking at this stone, which is not much bigger than an adult's thumb, even other people who don't understand the value of Tianhuang stone can't help but be deeply attracted by it, because this stone looks really beautiful, the texture is delicate, pure and flawless, the color is pure, bright, rich, and translucent under the irradiation of natural light, which is no worse than those transparent jade.
"It's expensive, isn't it?" After playing for a while, Wei Chensong put down Tian Huangshi with some love, raised his head to look at Leng Binghan and asked softly, with a hint of a smile on his face, but his eyes were sharp.
"No matter how rare something is, it needs people who know how to appreciate it to reflect its value." Leng Binghan said indifferently: "What's more, a stone, no matter how valuable it is, is only a thousand dollars, it is Uncle Wei's birthday, Xiao Han is just talking about expressing his heart." ”
"Huh? A thousand dollars? "Someone is secretly speechless.
Ninety-seven years of 1,000 yuan is no longer a particularly huge wealth, not to mention that everyone here is either a high-ranking officer in the army, or a local department or bureau level official, but to let them spend so much money to buy such a stone, many people still think that it is not cost-effective, and even feel that this cold cold is really worthy of being the first prince of the capital, this kind of thing of buying a stone with a thousand yuan, only people like him can do it.
Only people who really know how to know it, not to mention that this piece of Tianhuang stone is an extremely rare Tianhuang jelly, it is the best in Tianhuang stone, it is worth a lot of money, and it cannot be measured by money at all, even if it is an ordinary Tianhuang stone, it is not 12,000 that can be bought. If it weren't for Feiyuan's wealth, strength, and good reputation, it would not be easy to buy this piece of Ertian yellow jelly from the original owner.
Of course, the specific price is cold and cold, and it is not clear. He just asked Zhu Jianjun to help find it, and he didn't say that he had to find Tian Huangshi, a superb Tian Huangshi. However, Zhu Jianjun has always taken the cold command as his favor, and immediately mobilized all the forces of the entire Feiyuan, spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to buy this piece of Tianhuang Jelly from the hands of a wealthy man in a European country, and carefully customized a beautiful and luxurious box inlaid with diamonds and gemstones in Switzerland.
However, when it came to Leng Binghan's hands, considering that the box was good-looking, but it was too expensive, Leng Binghan had no way to explain the ins and outs at all. Even if Wei Chensong belongs to the same royal family and has a great relationship, Leng Binghan doesn't need to bribe Wei Chensong at all, but he can't make sense, and if he doesn't get it right, he will give someone a handle. After thinking about it, combined with his own cognition and understanding of Wei Chensong, he finally simply removed the box and wrapped it in an ordinary piece of red silk.
Now seeing that Wei Chensong loves this piece of Tianhuang Jelly very much and can't put it down, he knows that this effort has not been in vain.
Sure enough, it seemed that after some hesitation and consideration, Wei Chensong laughed, looked at the Tianhuang frozen stone, and said, "Okay, I'll take it." ”
Leng Binghan smiled happily.
Ling Zhongbin looked at the officers who were shuttling in the restaurant and had dazzling epaulettes, and he felt a lot of trouble in his heart.
Ling Zhongbin came with Hao Ping, a political commissar of the Hunan Military Sub-district. As the dean of the Command Officer Basic Education College of the National University of Defense Technology, Ling Zhongbin is a colonel officer and has a very good relationship with Hao Ping, who is also a colonel. A few days ago, he overheard Hao Ping mention that today was Commander Wei Chensong's 59th birthday, and Ling Zhongbin was moved.
Ling Zhongbin, who was transferred from the army to the National University of Defense Technology, did not fundamentally position himself as a teacher. It can be said that his way of thinking is still that of an officer, and he does not have the consciousness of being a teacher, and he does not want to pursue the profession of teacher in the years to come. It was his greatest dream to change the epaulettes on his shoulders to the shining gold star in his lifetime. Therefore, it has always been his credo to take all the opportunities and make friends with all the people who may be helpful to him.
In terms of his identity, it is not difficult to make friends with some powerful people, but it is not easy to be like Wei Chensong. Although Wei Chensong is in the Nanjing Military Region and he is in Changsha, Wei Chensong is a powerful deputy commander of the military region after all, and he also has the background of the royal family, and his influence in the military circles is also very great. Even if there is no possibility of going further, there is no problem in keeping the current position. To have the opportunity to get to know these high-level officials, Ling Zhongbin was naturally unwilling to let go of this opportunity.
Who knew that since he entered the family compound of the military subdivision, he has encountered walls everywhere, especially Wei Chensong's home, because he did not have an invitation, and the soldiers standing guard refused to let him in. And the political commissar called the military sub-district didn't seem to take the two of them too seriously, and he couldn't say a few words because a heavyweight guest arrived. Putting him and Hao Ping aside, although he spoke very politely, Ling Zhongbin used to be respected everywhere in the school, and he was the focus everywhere, and he found that he had become a marginal person, so he was naturally a little bored.
And Hao Ping also felt that it didn't matter, after all, he was just a colonel officer of another military region, don't look at the position near the door, in this star-studded place, it would be good to have a foothold, and I don't look at what level can accompany Commander Wei to sit at the No. 1 table? Looking at his immediate boss, it is conceivable that the commander of the Hunan Military Subdivision of the Guangzhou Military Region also had to be arranged at table No. 2. Therefore, he talked and laughed with Ling Zhongbin.
Fortunately, the banquet began soon, the feast was in full bloom, and the delicacies were served on the wine table like flowing water, but Ling Zhongbin still felt that he had come a little out of place, shook his head, and picked up the teacup.
After taking two sips of tea, he just wanted to put down the teacup, Ling Zhongbin's eyes were condensed, but he saw that the students who came to his academy just now this year were cold, but they walked in from the side hall, and as he walked, he whispered to the two generals in military uniforms, talking and laughing, without the slightest restraint and nervousness.
Seeing this scene, Ling Zhongbin's heart was shocked, and he suddenly seemed to have his soul hollowed out, he was stunned, his hands were soft, and the teacup in his hand almost came out of his hand, and he couldn't believe his eyes at all.
There are no less than 1,000 students at the Command Officer Basic Education College of the National Defense Technology University, and Ling Zhongbin, as the dean, naturally cannot get to know them one by one. The reason why Leng Binghan can be remembered is not only Leng Binghan's good image and temperament, but also because Leng Binghan is the first student to enjoy privileges since the opening of the National University of Defense Technology, and it is also a student who the president has personally told to focus on, which naturally makes Ling Zhongbin have a strong curiosity about this student.
However, Leng Binghan has always been decent since he entered the school, including three months of recruit training, and his grades are also at the upper middle level, which looks no different from other students.
Ling Zhongbin also tried to access Leng Binghan's relevant information, but after reading it, he was very disappointed, because this information seemed to be very detailed, but there was nothing special about it, and it could even be said to be bland, and he couldn't see why he could get such different preferential privileges in school.
In addition to being disappointed, Ling Zhongbin was also shocked and inexplicable, he vaguely felt that this information seemed to be used to hide people's ears, and in this case, there were often extremely shocking secrets hidden behind it.
And today, he could actually see the cold figure at General Wei Chensong's birthday banquet, and Ling Zhongbin seemed to vaguely understand something in his heart.
And other people who didn't know what was going on couldn't help but be surprised when they saw Leng Binghan walking with the two generals, Gao Yuyuan and Wei Chensong, and asked what the origin of this young man was.
Seeing the appearance of today's birthday star Gong Wei Chensong, the officers at all tables suddenly stood up, and the audience was solemn, and Ling Zhongbin, who was still immersed in shock and had not fully recovered, also involuntarily stood up.
Leng Binghan was just about to walk outside, where the low-ranking officers and juniors were located, but Wei Chensong grabbed his hand and said, "Xiao Han, don't go anywhere today, just sit with me." ”
Leng Binghan couldn't help but be taken aback, and hurriedly shook his hand and said, "Uncle Wei, aren't you going to put me on the fire and roast me?" Look at what those people are looking at me.
This time, before Wei Chensong could speak, Gao Yuyuan smiled and said, "Xiao Han, you don't care about other people's eyes, just sit next to me and Brother Wei, and don't go anywhere!" ”
Leng Binghan originally wanted to say something, but Wei Chensong didn't say anything, and pulled Leng Binghan towards the No. 1 table. Leng Binghan smiled bitterly, there was no way, since he couldn't push it off, he simply followed them with a calm expression.
In addition to the positions of the two generals at the main table today, there were several other generals and high-ranking government officials, and when they saw Gao Yuyuan and Wei Chensong coming, they all stood up and nodded hello.
When they arrived at the place, Gao Yuyuan and Wei Chensong pushed for a long time for who would sit on the main seat, and in the end, the birthday star was the biggest, Wei Chensong sat on the main seat, and Gao Yuyuan and Leng Binghan sat on both sides of Wei Chensong respectively.
General Wei Chensong sat on the main seat, pressed his hands weakly, and said, "Everyone sits." Feel free to order it today. ”
The officers sat down in unison, as straight as a benchmark, and the whole scene was extremely spectacular, but it also made those local officials feel a little uncomfortable.
Leng Binghan sat next to Wei Chensong, looking at the suspicious and hot eyes of the people at the table, he could only shake his head and smile bitterly, and said in his heart that today was in the limelight.
Wei Chensong smiled and said: "Thank you for your thoughts, the children are ignorant, and the banquet is large, I, a poor old man, am going bankrupt." ”
The officers laughed. Everyone knows that Wei Chensong has always disliked this kind of fame, and in the past, he only invited relatives and friends to get together on a small range on his birthday. But today is the fifty-ninth birthday, and the children are determined to be lively, especially Wei Xiaoling, whose husband's family has assets of tens of millions, and has long said that all the expenses of the birthday banquet will be borne by them.
The filial piety of the children Wei Chensong is naturally not easy to push, and he can only toss with them, but he still gave a death order, no gifts are allowed, and the value of the gift shall not exceed 100 yuan, therefore, among all the birthday gifts, it is estimated that the Tian Huang Jelly sent by Leng Binghan is the most valuable.
Although Wei Chensong knew that this stone was worth a lot of money, he never imagined that it would be as high as hundreds of thousands of dollars, otherwise he would not accept it even if it was given by Leng Binghan.
As a soldier, Wei Chensong didn't pay so much attention to it, and after the master of ceremonies said a few words of birthday greetings, the banquet officially began, without too many fancy things.
At first, Ling Zhongbin was looking for an opportunity to go to Table No. 1 to toast those senior officers, but as soon as the banquet began, each table began to fight wine. But there are not many people who really dare to go to table No. 1 to toast, and it is probably estimated that they are not of enough grade, and they do not have the courage. Seeing that Ling Zhongbin's idea of stepping forward was also shaken a lot.
"Uncle Wei, Xiao Han also toasts you, I wish you a happy birthday and a happy day!" After three rounds of wine, Leng Bing Han also picked up his wine glass.
Wei Chensong smiled, also raised the cup, and drank it all happily.
Wei Chensong's move looked at Leng Binghan in the eyes of others. Wei Chensong was originally massive, but as he got older, he gradually drank less wine. Even if someone else toasted just now, he only tasted it lightly, which meant it, but for Leng Binghan, he drank all the wine in the cup, which was really surprising enough.
Many people even feel that their heads are a little insufficient, and some secretly pinch themselves a few times underneath, wondering if they are dreaming.
Gao Yuyuan also smiled and quipped: "Brother Wei, you're not right, obviously biased!" ”
Wei Chensong glanced at him smugly and said, "What if I'm just eccentric?" Do you also eat the vinegar of the juniors? Xiao Han, you see that Commander Gao is not satisfied, why don't you hurry up and toast him?
The elders had orders, Leng Binghan naturally had to obey, and immediately picked up the wine bottle on the table and poured his own wine glass full of wine, holding the glass with both hands, and said to Gao Yuyuan very respectfully: "Uncle Gao, Xiao Han also toasts you, and I need you to take care of it in the future." Xiao Han did it first as a respect. After that, he drank the wine in the glass very straightforwardly.
Gao Yuyuan and Wei Chensong looked at each other and smiled, obviously appreciating the cold straightforwardness.
Perhaps, in their opinion, since a person is straightforward in drinking, it means that he is also a straightforward person, which is very to their taste.
