Rich in the 70s: I Made a Rugged Veteran a Millionaire novel Chapter 204

Chapter 204: Chapter 204: Let’s Have a Drink Together

Director Lu stared straight and fiercely at the old man.

The old man was used to being high and mighty at home.

But in the village, he was nothing, let alone in a city.

After just a few seconds of eye contact, he turned his face away from Director Lu’s glare.

"Hmph!"

Director Lu turned his head with arrogance, showcasing the full demeanor of a factory director.

Let’s go!

The three of them walked out of the office building of the bamboo weaving factory, all the way out of the factory.

Director Lu finally dropped his act and smiled at Jiang Cheng, asking, "How was my tiger-borrowing strategy just now?"

Jiang Cheng’s face suddenly turned serious, giving Director Lu a slight chill in his heart.

Did I get it wrong again?

It felt right to me.

I was borrowing the tiger’s force of the entire Sea City!

"Director Lu, I won’t allow you to talk about yourself like that!"

"You clearly scared them away with your own aura!"

"I even got startled by you!"

Director Lu first smiled, then his smile vanished slightly.

"Jiang Cheng, if you hadn’t said that last sentence, I would have believed you!"

Jiang Cheng immediately returned to his cheerful look.

"Why wouldn’t I understand you! We could be described as friends against all odds, right?"

Director Lu jokingly flipped his head.

"Who wants an intergenerational friendship with you? I’m still young!"

"Hahaha! My mistake, my mistake! Director Lu must remain eternally youthful!"

In the sunset, the shadows of the three stretched long as they laughed heartily, carelessly expressing themselves regardless of age.

The three ended today’s journey in laughter.

As they returned to the guesthouse, they were stopped by the young lady at the front desk.

"Mr. Jiang?"

"Xiao Mei, anything for me?"

Xiao Mei, who had been waiting at the front desk, nodded and said, "Director Mu from Foreign Trade left a message that the Foreign Trade canteen saved dinner for you."

"Thank you for letting me know, we are really hungry!"

After thanking her, Jiang Cheng called Director Lu and Director Lian to head out again.

Not far, about a ten-minute walk.

As soon as they entered, Director Lu and Director Lian stepped back several steps, leaving the main role to Jiang Cheng.

Jiang Cheng greeted everyone warmly as he walked to the canteen.

Upon reaching the canteen, Director Mu and Director Yan also arrived.

The two formally expressed their gratitude to Jiang Cheng.

Tonight’s meal is also considered a farewell dinner.

The dinner was sumptuous.

Authentic Sea City specialties, as well as Jiang Cheng’s hometown dishes.

Eight dishes filled the table.

Director Yan even opened a bottle of Maotai, looking slightly provocative as he asked Jiang Cheng, "Can you drink?"

Jiang Cheng instinctively frowned.

"I’ve only drunk a couple of times."

Director Yan’s competitive spirit suddenly rose and asked, "Want to try some?"

Jiang Cheng reluctantly replied, "Alright, I can keep you company for a little bit."

Seeing this, Director Mu quickly reminded, "Jiang Cheng, don’t drink with him! He can drink!"

Jiang Cheng looked at Director Yan in surprise.

"Are you trying to win once against me?"

Director Yan wasn’t embarrassed when exposed and said, "Can you let me have some confidence?"

Jiang Cheng paused for a moment.

Director Yan spoke again, "Don’t worry, I won’t be rude by forcing you to drink."

"Just have a little, I’ll provide enough wine!"

Jiang Cheng seemed persuaded and asked, "Really?"

"Of course!"

After Director Yan’s assurance, Jiang Cheng smiled and sat down, handing over his glass.

Director Lian and Director Lu, who had seen Jiang Cheng drink before, tried hard to lower their heads, and then tried harder to lower their heads again.

They saw nothing!

A farewell feast began.

Director Yan raised his glass to thank Jiang Cheng for his contributions and expressed that Foreign Trade had something to offer.
