This was a banquet hall that could accommodate 20 tables, so it was very spacious for 18 tables without a stage. Although there were about 200 people including the service staff, they were all in order and did not seem crowded at all.
This also showed the respect of the Three Tigers of South City for Ruan Qingshuang. They were usually not well-mannered people, but now they could sit quietly and consciously. They seemed to be very disciplined, as if they had been trained.
This was definitely giving them enough face. Even the seven extremely disciplined bodyguards from the Tang Group were quite impressed. After all, such a large group of people, to put it bluntly, they were all gangsters. To be able to do this, it was really admirable.
Tang Yifei and Tang Shaofeng's table should be the quietest and most restrained of all. First of all, the two young masters of the Tang Group were not in the mood. How could the others be happy? Even if they were, they had to suppress it.
As for her family, they were quite jubilant. Guoguo told Chou Yeon that she felt like celebrating the New Year. Chou Yeon did not say anything. She just quietly touched Guoguo's head. Because in the past, Feng Qiansui always invited all the people who had contributed to the Feng family, regardless of whether it was the elder brother or the younger brother. The scene was even bigger than this.
"Brothers, thank you for coming to the celebration banquet for the successful bid of the Tang Group." Xu Yun finally said, "Today's banquet is first to congratulate our Tang Group's President Tang for winning the artificial river project. Secondly, to thank you for coming here this morning without hesitation. Today, let's eat and drink well. We won't go home until we're drunk! "
Cheers! Everyone applauded. Some of the more flamboyant people stood up and shouted, saying that this was what they should do. Everyone laughed.
At this time, Tang Jiu stood up and said, "In fact, this should not be called a celebration banquet. It should be called a thank-you banquet. Thank you for this morning. If you come to Jibei in the future, I will treat you as a VIP! Today, the Tang Group was able to win the project because of your help. "
"President Tang, you're too kind. What we did was just the icing on the cake. If it weren't for us, Brother Yun would have settled it for you." As the representative of the hooligans, Dan Hongning was the first to speak. He really felt that he couldn't accept Tang Jiu's politeness. Because this matter did not require so many brothers in the first place, Xu Yun really could handle it.
Qiang Zi stood up as well. "Yes, yes, yes. Big Brother Yun is the one who helped us in our hour of need. We're just following Big Brother Yun. President Tang, don't be so courteous with us. Quick, take a seat. How can we sit when you're standing?"
"That's right, that's right. Brother Qiang is right." Lu Feng and Kong Zhong also stood up. "If President Tang doesn't sit, we'll all be punished to stand."
The sound of chairs being dragged could be heard. The brothers at table 15 all stood up and said in unison, "Please take a seat, CEO Tang!"
Seeing that their brothers were so obedient, the Three Tigers of Southern City were overjoyed. They felt a sense of accomplishment in front of Brother Yun. Because they all knew that Xu Yun was a very principled and disciplined person, they believed that Xu Yun would be happy to see this.
Xu Yun was from the Dragon Fury Team. Of course, he liked the feeling of discipline. He laughed loudly. "Hahahaha! Let's just assemble you into an army. Alright, alright, don't be so restrained. Sit down, all of you! Let President Tang finish what he has to say! "
"Yes!" The answer was neat, very neat!
Tang Jiu smiled faintly. "Everyone here today will receive a red packet. I, Tang Jiu, am also a person who has been through many hardships in this society. In the next 24 months, I will be working on the artificial river project in Hedong City. I'm afraid that I will have to trouble all of you. So, I want to say that you can't reject my red packet today. If you reject me, it means that you don't want to be involved with me, Tang Jiu. "
At this point, Xu Yun was stunned. He admired Tang Jiu in his heart. Tang Jiu was really something! What he said sounded like a gangster. It was the best thing to say to make these people happy.
Brothers who were in the underworld were very loyal. The Three Tigers of Southern City would not promote people who were not loyal. So, those who were present today were all loyal brothers. So, when they heard Tang Jiu's words, they were very excited.
After all, not many bosses of large corporations would really look up to these so-called gangsters. In fact, they just didn't have a fixed job, but they usually relied on themselves to contact various channels to support their families. They were not the kind of hooligans who broke the law. Although they occasionally fought, it was for the benefit of themselves, their families, or their friends.
In Ruan Qingshuang's words, she did not hate gangsters who lived a life, but she hated hooligans who ruined lives.
Strictly speaking, the Three Tigers of Nancheng were all gangsters with legitimate businesses. The people under them all had jobs to do, so they were definitely not that kind of shameless hooligans. They were a group of brothers who were very loyal.
"About this red packet, I have something to say. Accept all of it. No one needs to be polite. " Dan Hongning stood up. "If you feel that it is not appropriate to accept this money, come and say hello to me. I will counsel him."
No matter what, Dan Hongning was still a senior figure, so his words carried a lot of weight. No one would not listen to him.
"Have you prepared the things I asked you to?" Tang Jiu glanced at his personal secretary, Pan Fei. When the Tang Corporation participated in the bidding in the afternoon, Tang Jiu asked Pan Fei to prepare red packets.
In this day and age, ordinary people's annual contributions were more than five figures, not to mention the CEO of the Tang Corporation. There were too many connections in various aspects. Marriage, children, moving into a house, company opening, housewarming, and ribbon-cutting, all of these required red packets. So, as a secretary, she definitely did not lack these things. She had at least eight or ten red packets. Was it not enough? There were at least a few hundred red packets in the car. These things were prepared for a long time.
During the bidding, Pan Fei did not have anything to do. She started to give out red packets. She roughly estimated that there would be 150 to 60 red packets. Tang Jiu brought 100,000 cash with him. Each red packet contained 500 red packets.
"It's ready." Pan Fei knew what Tang Jiu meant. She immediately got up to distribute the red packets. The female assistants of the three project managers also got up to help. Soon, each of the underlings present had a red packet. There were a total of 147 red packets.
Of course, Xu Yun, Qiang, and the Three Tigers of Southern City did not receive any red packets. Pan Fei was also a sensible person. She knew that if the people sitting at the same table as CEO Tang used 500 to thank him, it would be too cold. It was even a bit of a slap in the face.
Below, some of the underlings secretly opened their red packets. 500 yuan. Aiyo, that was a lot! One must know that with the level of economic development in Hedong, the so-called "appearance fee" for this kind of thing was not high. Most of the time, it was only 100 yuan. Some generous people would pay 100 yuan and add a 100 yuan cigarette.
Most of the people present had probably never received an appearance fee of 500 yuan. So, they were all very surprised. They all rushed to whisper to each other and asked how they should deal with this thing. To put it bluntly, this money was indeed too much. They really could not accept it.
Fortunately, Dan Hongning had said at the beginning that if they felt that it was inappropriate, they could go to him and he would deal with it.
"It's just a token of my appreciation. Because I don't have much cash on me, I hope that you won't mind." Tang Jiu said this not to show off that she had a lot of money. She really felt that the money was not that much. According to her style of doing things, she felt that she should give at least 1000 yuan per person.
Xu Yun was afraid that she would be conflicted about this problem. He could only interrupt her. "Alright, Tang Jiu. Today's matter was not difficult for us. If you feel bad, then let's start drinking and eating. You can toast to us two cups. That's more than two red packets of gratitude!"
As long as Xu Yun opened his mouth, the response would definitely be extraordinary. Every one of the underlings became the king of cheering. "Yes! President Tang's toast is worth two cups! "
At this time, the kitchen started serving the dishes. Because Ruan Qingshuang had asked the kitchen to prepare Liangshan, Liangshan was well-prepared. Even if the dishes were served here, it would not affect the other guests at the hotel at all. Moreover, the speed of the dishes was very fast. Twenty waiters walked around the banquet hall. The delicious food was quickly presented in front of everyone.
Tang Jiu was in a particularly relaxed mood today. She indeed had the intention of drinking a few cups. Seeing that the dishes were served, Qiang and Dan Hongning were also responsible for opening the wine and pouring the wine. As for the tea, it was left to Lu Feng and Kong Zhong. With the four of them serving the guests, they would definitely do a good job.
After pouring the wine, Tang Jiu picked up the wine glass and stood up. "Tang Jiu would like to propose a toast to everyone. Once again, I sincerely thank you on behalf of the Tang Corporation. Xu Yun, I will personally thank you later. " At this time, the people from the Tang Corporation also stood up and proposed a toast with Tang Jiu. Tang Yifei and Tang Shaofeng, who originally did not want to participate, had no choice but to stand up with their wine glasses. However, they were very reluctant in their hearts.
"Just drink half of it." Xu Yun also stood up. Looking at Tang Jiu's state, it seemed that she was really going to drink to her heart's content. Although he knew that Tang Jiu's alcohol tolerance could be described as enormous, if she really drank to her heart's content, the possibility of getting drunk was very high.
Xu Yun stood up. Everyone also stood up with their wine glasses.
Tang Jiu did not listen to Xu Yun's words. She directly raised her glass and drank it in one gulp. Although the glass size was smaller, it was still more than two ounces of white wine. "I'll drink it. Brothers, help yourselves!"
Aiyo, this was definitely a woman who did not lose to men. Tang Jiu's high alcohol tolerance completely stimulated everyone present. Since a woman drank it, naturally, there was no reason for them to drink anymore. They all followed Tang Jiu and drank it in one gulp.
Xu Yun really felt that his head was hurting. This group of people, none of them were dishonest. "Can you all slow down a little? Do you want to drink all the wine here or what? Drink less, I'm very stingy! "
Qiang poured wine for Tang Jiu and the people at the table who drank it all. He shook the bottle and said, "Brother, if you are stingy, don't drink this wine that was hidden by the Kong family for eight years. This wine is soft in the mouth, it tickles the throat, and it won't go to the head the next morning!"
