Hello 1983

Page 609

The banquet also took into account the characteristics of the cuisine of the two countries. The back kitchen of the Longteng Hotel specially hired several Maozi chefs.

Liu Qingshan has another task, which is to lead the newcomers to toast at the table, and Ma Laosan and Gangzi are also surrounded by them, helping to pour the wine, which is very lively.

Naturally, it should start with the bride's family and friends, and this should even be placed in front of the leader.

I saw Ivanov and the girls raised their wine glasses, and then started yelling "Gorky" in their mouths.

This time, Liu Qingshan and the others were fooled.

Of course Gorky and the others knew that it was a famous writer. Could it be that they wanted to pay tribute to this great writer?

It was Anna who explained to them with a smile: "Gorky means pain and bitterness in Russian. Their custom is that when the bride and groom are toasting, the guests must shout bitterness."

But everyone still doesn't understand: You can say that this wine is a bit spicy, which is understandable, but how can it be bitter? Could it be that what you drink today is fake wine?

Ma Laosan tasted it uncomfortably, and said, "It's not bitter."

Anna suppressed a smile at the side, and introduced with a blushing face: "Everyone says that wine is bitter, and only the kiss of the bride and groom can sweeten the wine."

Everyone suddenly realized: just ask the bride and groom to kiss, okay? We were so frightened that our foreheads were sweating, and we thought it was fake wine.

But immediately, Ma Laosan, Gangzi and the others also started booing: They are very conservative these days, and it is not so easy to see others kiss.

Hou San was also a little nervous. Although he had done this before, it was only when no one was around. He really didn't have the courage in such a large crowd.

On the contrary, Anna didn't care at all, put her arms around Hou San's neck, and then kissed him on the mouth.

There was a sound of humming around, and everyone raised their glasses together again, and drank the remaining wine in the glasses.

After making a fuss for a while, several people continued to toast at other tables. They went to the leader's table first. As a result, the head of the Public Security Bureau, Hei, took a sip of wine, and smacked his lips with a dark face: "Bitter!"

Laughing so much that a city leader almost spit out the wine, you said how old you are, Da Laohei, and you have learned to talk nonsense.

When they toasted several leaders of the army, Political Commissar Wang and the newly appointed head of the regiment Yu also cheerfully extended an invitation to Liu Qingshan: Comrades are all looking forward to Mr. Liu's visit.

Liu Qingshan naturally agreed with a smile, thinking in his heart: There must be something wrong again.

After a round of toasting, Liu Qingshan returned to the table where he stayed, and was finally able to sit down and have a meal.

The fourth and fifth children are also at this table, and the fourth child is still smiling and saying: "The bride is so beautiful today."

Liu Qingshan reached out to touch her little head: Maybe every little girl has a beautiful dream of being a bride, right?

Picking up a glass of local black currant juice, Liu Qingshan didn't plan to drink baijiu today, and just after taking a sip, he felt a small slap on his arm.

Then he heard Shan Xing next to him, lying next to his ear, whispering a word.

If it wasn't for practicing martial arts, Liu Qingshan's ears are particularly sensitive, and he might not be able to hear clearly.

His cheeks bulged violently, and the blackcurrant juice in his mouth almost spewed out, but fortunately, he was finally controlled by his powerful breath.

Liu Qingshan put down his wine glass, swallowed the juice in his mouth with difficulty, then stretched out a hand, and gently stroked the watermelon head of Shanxing, silently.

"Shan Xing, what are you whispering to brother?" The little brother asked curiously.

Shan Xing waved her small hands, her face was red.

Of course she was embarrassed to repeat what she just said, but a long time ago, she had this idea ignorantly, and on this occasion, she finally said it logically:

Brother, I also want to be your bride.

Liu Qingshan was also a little shocked, but he calmed down quickly, and he is not sure now: Is this Shanxing dependent on him like a relative, or is it a kind of love, or is it a combination of both?

In his feeling all the time, he regards Shan Xing as a child, maybe the child is too young to understand the difference between family affection and love.

So he lightly patted Shan Xing's head twice, and said softly: "Wait until you grow up to think about this issue, eat first."

Shan Xing nodded, and then used chopsticks to pick up a piece of chicken for the eldest brother, smiling brightly on his little face.

When the banquet was over, Liu Qingshan and the others saw off the guests, and the next wave was to entertain Longteng's staff. There were more than 150 people, and about [-] tables were arranged.

Liu Qingshan led Hou San to toast everyone with a glass of wine, and then accompanied Anna's parents and relatives and friends to sit at the new house, because they had to rush back today.

With so many people rushing in at once, the new house was almost full at once. The four corners of the house were stretched with garlands, plus the big red Double Happiness characters pasted on it, it looked very festive.

Only then did Hou San take out the gold inlaid jade, and put the one with his name on it around Anna's snow-white neck.

Although Anna only knows a lot of Chinese characters, she can still recognize the words Anna and Hou Zhenbei.

Anna immediately screamed with excitement, and she also realized the preciousness of this gift.

"This is what the boss gave us. It's a golden and jade marriage. On our side, it's the best blessing." Hou San was also very satisfied with his daughter-in-law's reaction.

Only then did Anna pull Hou San and thank Liu Qingshan together.

For today's wedding, she really felt very happy.

The hairy girls around all looked at Anna enviously. Now, they stopped pestering Liu Qingshan, knowing that he didn't mean that.

It seems that they can only come to Anna's house more in the future, hoping to find a good husband in Longteng Company.

Liu Qingshan doesn't mind this kind of cross-border marriage, 90.00% of the employees of Longteng Company are old men, and most of them are bachelors.

After sending Anna's family and friends back, it was getting dark, and Ma Laosan, Gangzi and the others rushed to make trouble in the bridal chamber.

Liu Qingshan didn't get involved in this kind of thing, but just told Ma Laosan and the others a few ideas.

Until the next morning when eating, Liu Qingshan saw that everyone was smiling badly, so he couldn't help asking.

Ma Laosan chatted for a long time, and then said: "Boss, we just listened to the window root after we finished our bridal chamber last night."

Seeing his humble appearance, Liu Qingshan knew that he must have heard something good, so he smiled and said, "What do you gain?"

Chi Chi, the people at this dinner table laughed first.

Then Gangzi started to speak vividly. He squeezed his throat first, and spoke in a high-pitched voice, obviously trying to imitate Anna: "Brother Hou, where is your golden cudgel?"

Ma Laosan immediately took up the conversation: "Look at my grandson making a scene in heaven!"

Liu Qingshan couldn't help laughing, but the little fourth child next to him suddenly interrupted: "That must be Brother Hou telling Sister Anna the story of "Journey to the West"."

What else can everyone say, they can only nod while holding back their laughter.

After the meal, Liu Qingshan called the others and drove to the border guard station, and the fourth and fifth children happily followed along.

Anyway, these two little girls have been there before, and besides, they are both children, so there are not so many taboos.

After getting off the car outside the barracks, Liu Qingshan took a look, the appearance of the barracks had changed a bit, a two-story building rose from the ground.

Ding Shan pointed to the small building and introduced it to everyone: "This was built by Uncle Shen when he left. There are several activity rooms on the first floor, including table tennis and recreational chess."

"The second floor is a screening hall with a large color TV. You can watch the news every night and show a movie on Saturdays."

Liu Qingshan also nodded, thinking that Shen Guodong is really good.

In this bitterly cold place, the winter is cold and long. With an activity room, the soldiers will have a lot of entertainment.

Shen Guodong can be regarded as an official, benefiting one party.

He has laid a solid economic foundation for the border guards, and as the production of mineral water continues to increase, the economic situation will only get better.

Everyone entered the barracks together, and the soldiers standing guard at the gate had already received their orders and did not stop them.

A group of people went inside, and Political Commissar Wang and Head Yu also came out after hearing the news. After shaking hands with each other, the others led the four and five, and went straight to watch the soldiers training.

Only Liu Qingshan, Ding Shan, Yu Guangming and others went to the office together.

"Qingshan, I haven't seen you for a year, how about studying abroad?" Political commissar Wang asked the orderly to pour tea, and started chatting with Liu Qingshan.

"Report to the political commissar, I have successfully graduated, and now I am waiting for assignment." They are all old acquaintances, and Liu Qingshan doesn't mind using a joking tone.

Political Commissar Wang was also quite surprised: "It's so fast, it seems like it's only been a semester, and you are the best."

Head Yu also said with a smile: "Qingshan, although the old superior has left our place, the relationship between the army and the people between Longteng Company and the border guards has not stopped."

Liu Qingshan nodded with a smile: "Uncle Yu, of course, the longer the time, the deeper the friendship."

The reason why he called Uncle Yu was because he was at the head of the regiment, and he was still Yu Guangming's distant uncle, so it was his turn to be fat.

You know, those who want to come to the border guards will almost steal their heads.

After chatting for a while, head Yu finally got to the point: "Qingshan, when summer entered last year, we had successfully received that batch of goods."

"Mr. Li immediately organized a group of technicians to attack the fortifications. However, compared with ours, these things are a bit too advanced, so we encountered many technical problems."

Liu Qingshan listened carefully, this is easy to understand, just like a junior high school student, asking him to do high school math problems is of course more difficult.

Only the leader Yu continued to say: "So the higher-ups made a request to see if we can get some specific parameters."

"And that Sergey doesn't have direct contact with us, so we need your help in this matter."

The difficulty this time is indeed not small, Liu Qingshan frowned slightly, these things must be top secret, it is not so easy to get them.

Even Sergey, although he can get the finished product, but if he wants these data, he probably can't get it.

"Qingshan, the higher-ups also know that it will be difficult, so just do your best." Head Yu also knew that it was a bit difficult, so he fully conveyed the meaning of the higher-ups.

After thinking for a while, Liu Qingshan suddenly said: "Actually, some things don't necessarily only exist on paper."

After speaking, he raised his finger and pointed to his head.

Of course those two understood in seconds, and they all looked shocked, then shook their heads together.

If you do this, it is tantamount to leaking state secrets, even if Maozi is crazy, he probably won't do it.

But Liu Qingshan didn't think so. When the giant fell suddenly and the country was gone, there would be no leakage of secrets.

After the giant fell, the ones who jumped up and gnawed on the corpse were all eaten up, so he was not bad.

Liu Qingshan smiled and said: "Both leaders, you are on the front line and know the situation on the other side better. How long can you hold on there?"

The two looked at each other again and shook their heads in unison. Political Commissar Wang frowned and said, "Although it feels a bit chaotic over there, centipedes are dead but not stiff."

But Liu Qingshan shook his head again: "Our ancestors have a saying, its prosperity is also vigorous, and its death is also sudden."

At this time, Yu Shengli suddenly interjected: "Qingshan, you have predicted the drastic changes in Eastern Europe before, and looking at it now, it is really possible."

"We do business in Eastern European countries, and we can clearly feel the turmoil in those countries."

Liu Qingshan added: "I also heard that the Soviet Union will also withdraw its troops from Afghanistan this year."

This news was like a blockbuster. Political Commissar Wang and Head Yu also stood up suddenly: "Qingshan, is the source of your news reliable?"

Liu Qingshan has no source, but he can only nod his head.

The withdrawal of the Soviet Union from Afghanistan was a major signal, which directly led to the complete separation of several younger brothers in Eastern Europe from Germany.

As soldiers, Political Commissar Wang and the others certainly knew this very well. It seemed that the northern giant was indeed seriously ill.

Liu Qingshan changed the topic back again: "Instead of buying and selling things, we might as well invite those experts back directly."

Liu Qingshan saw the distressed faces of the two, and guessed roughly: "The main purpose is to provide some material supplies in the early stage. It won't cost too much, and our Longteng Company will bear it first, but we also have a small request."

Business is business, and Liu Qingshan can't do business at a loss. Seeing the two leaders nodding, he continued:

"It just so happens that our company also wants to gradually transform into a manufacturing industry in the future. We will definitely need a lot of technicians. At that time, if we are allowed to take in some technicians who study civilian equipment, it will be considered as a reward."

Chapter 655 There are people outside people, and there is a sky outside the sky

Liu Qingshan also walked around the barracks, so he must give the two leaders a time to report to their superiors.

When I strolled to the playground, I saw Li Tieniu wearing only a long coat, competing with several soldiers there.

There were five or six little soldiers around this guy, all of whom were thrown to the ground by him. On the playground, Li Tieniu's hearty laughter could be heard from time to time.

Surrounded by a large circle of soldiers in cotton uniforms, they clapped their hands from time to time.

They all knew that Li Tieniu was also from the army, so they didn't feel ashamed to be defeated by such a veteran.

They are all in the same trench, who is laughing at whom?

"Go!" Li Tieniu roared, raised his arms, and pushed several soldiers to the ground.

"Brother Tieniu is great!" The fourth and fifth children clapped their hands happily.

Li Tieniu stretched his neck and looked around, as if he was a lonely master.

Just in time to see Liu Qingshan strolling over, Li Tieniu yelled loudly: "Little brother, do you want to play around?"

Liu Qingshan smiled and waved his hands. If he was really a young man in his 20s, he might still have the desire to show off.

The soldiers who fell to the ground were helped up by their comrades. Although they were covered with a lot of dirt, they looked a little embarrassed.

However, Li Tieniu was very measured in his actions, and none of the soldiers were injured, it was just a pain for a while.

Seeing these comrades grinning, a little soldier with a North River accent saluted Li Tieniu:
