Soon, Tang Jiu made a second toast on behalf of the Tang Corporation. She drank it all in one gulp. Everyone applauded and applauded. No one did not admire Tang Jiu's alcohol tolerance. Ruan Qingshuang did not know Tang Jiu's alcohol tolerance. She tried to stop her several times, but she was too embarrassed to do so.
Xu Yun saw Ruan Qingshuang's worry and quietly told her not to worry. This was 38% alcohol, and the glass was two and a half ounces. Tang Jiu would probably be able to drink at least twelve glasses. Since she was happy, he did not want to spoil her mood. At most, she would drink too much. Anyway, she did not need to rush back to Ji Bei today.
After three rounds of drinking, Tang Jiu had given three consecutive toasts. He had given enough face. Some of the brothers who couldn't handle alcohol got a little tipsy after three toasts. Alcohol wasn't something that anyone could drink a thousand cups without getting drunk. It was already considered good if one could hold more than a catty of alcohol. Most of them would get drunk after seven or eight taels.
Tang Jiu, who had an absolute capacity, did not intend to stop there. She raised her glass to Qiang and the Three Tigers of Southern City. More importantly, Tang Jiu was very particular. She did not propose a toast with the three of them. Instead, she proposed a one-on-one toast. It was obvious that the man-made river project was very important to Tang Jiu. That was why she was so grateful to everyone who had helped her.
As for Xu Yun, who had helped her the most, it was not something that could be expressed through a toast. Therefore, she did not intend to toast to Xu Yun from the beginning.
"President Tang, you really have a good tolerance." Qiang was a little embarrassed. He drank the first three glasses. Now that Tang Jiu had finished it in one gulp, he could not not drink. Cheers!
At this time, Tang Jiu's alcohol tolerance really shocked the people at the table. The Three Tigers of Southern City sighed. If it was a one-on-one drinking contest, none of them would dare to play with Tang Jiu like this. No wonder people said that once a woman could drink, she would not be able to compete with an average man.
"Hurry up and eat something." Ruan Qingshuang said as she asked Guoguo to help Tang Jiu pick up the food. Guoguo was quite sensible. She picked up the shrimps and crispy bones for Tang Jiu and even advised Tang Jiu to drink less.
However, Tang Jiu's expression was unusually sober. If someone who didn't know better saw her, they would definitely not believe that she was someone who drank four glasses of wine.
At first, Xu Yun was quite nervous and didn't want Tang Jiu to drink like this. But now, he felt that it didn't matter. As long as Tang Jiu wanted to drink, no one would be able to stop him. Then, let him drink and bring out today's excitement.
Tang Jiu responded to Ruan Qingshuang and took a bite of the food. Then, he picked up his glass and started with Lu Feng, "I won't say any more polite words. I hope you can take care of the future project in Hedong."
"President Tang, you're too polite. Just say the word if you need anything!" Lu Feng was very forthright.
"If you say so, there is something I might need to trouble you with." Tang Jiu smiled embarrassedly, "Before the project starts, I need to renovate the river …"
"President Tang, you don't need to say anymore!" Lu Feng was happy to hear that, "You must think that this task is too small and troublesome, so you want to find someone to contract for it?"
Tang Jiu nodded, "Yes, I do want to find someone to contract for it. Because we need to do the detailed design of the project in the early stages, we don't want to be delayed by the river construction."
Dan Hongning laughed, "President Tang, even if you didn't mention this, we would have asked Brother Yun to help us apply for the job from you."
Kong Zhong patted his chest, "Leave the river construction to us. President Tang, don't worry. If the work isn't done well, we won't take a single cent!"
Tang Jiu stared at Xu Yun with wide eyes. Xu Yun knew what she was thinking, "Are you saying that only the Tang Corporation is allowed to do construction work, but we can't? They have a construction team. Don't worry, they are legitimate. Although they only have a third-level qualification, it will be a piece of cake for them to deal with a river. Besides, Kong Zhong used to be in the river sand business. He has plenty of people who can clean up the silt at the bottom of the river. Like they said, if you don't do it well, you don't have to pay. "
"That's great. Name your price." Tang Jiu was more forthright than a man, "I'm more relieved to have you guys do this work!"
"Come on, President Tang, don't mention the money. You're giving me this job because you think highly of me!" Lu Feng raised his glass and replied, "Here's to you. Here's to you for letting me find another job for my brothers to earn a living!"
Everyone was straightforward, so they quickly got familiar with each other. Tang Jiu made a preliminary budget. The cost of renovating the river was indeed not small, so she decided to sign a contract with Lu Feng as soon as possible. Because the company had to pay him three million in advance, they would pay him another thirty percent after the river was cleaned up. Once all the problems were solved, they would settle the bill.
Not only could they drink, eat, make friends, and do business, the Southern City's Three Tigers were all smiling.
After Tang Jiu gave three toasts to the Southern City's Three Tigers, she actually started toasting to the brothers at each table. Although Tang Jiu only drank half a glass of wine at each table, there were fifteen tables. After a round, she would drink seven or eight glasses of wine. In addition, she had drunk a lot before, so everyone was very understanding. Not to mention drinking half a glass, it was a great honor for these brothers that Tang Jiu could even order a glass of wine.
After a round of drinking, Tang Jiu finally felt a little tipsy. She said that she needed to go to the bathroom, then got up and left alone. Pan Fei immediately got up and followed her, but was stopped by Xu Yun.
"Secretary Pan, you go and eat. Leave Tang Jiu's matter to me." Xu Yun got up and said. At this time, he needed to remind Tang Jiu. If she continued to drink, it would really hurt her body.
Ruan Qingshuang was also very anxious. She urged Xu Yun to quickly go and check on Tang Jiu, in case something happened to her.
Guoguo shook her head like a little adult and sighed. "If you have too much luck with women, it will be a disaster with women …"
Ruan Qingshuang picked up a piece of butterfly fish head and put it on Guoguo's plate. "So much delicious food can't stop your mouth? Don't worry about adult matters. Hurry up and eat. After eating, I'll take you upstairs to do your homework. "
"Aiya, today is a celebration banquet. It's such a happy day. Don't I need to do my homework?" Guoguo pouted.
Before Chou Yeon said anything, Ruan Qingshuang directly said, "Of course not! Completing homework every day is something that must be done well. If you can't even do such a small thing, Guoguo won't be a successful person in the future. "
"Alright, alright, I got it." Guoguo stuck out her tongue. It seemed that she had to slow down her eating speed so that she could play downstairs for a while longer. She couldn't help it. After all, she loved to be lively.
…
Tang Jiu washed her face with cold water in the bathroom. She had drunk quite a lot that day. She could feel her cheeks burning. The cold water made Tang Jiu sober up a lot. She walked out of the hotel and looked at the brightly lit eastern suburbs with a melancholic expression.
"Wipe your face and hands. Otherwise, the wind will dry your skin." Xu Yun walked in front of Tang Jiu with a tissue and handed it to her.
Tang Jiu took the tissue and smiled faintly. "Thank you."
Xu Yun looked in the direction Tang Jiu was looking. "Do you miss Uncle Tang very much?"
Tang Jiu smiled but didn't say anything. After gently wiping all the water off her face and hands, she said faintly, "Yes. If I tell you, don't laugh at me. I've never left my father's side since I was young. Even when I was in university, because I was studying at Jibei University, I would go home every day. So, I've never left my father's side for such a long time. I remember the last time I left my father was when I ran to Hedong by myself. It was that night when I drank too much with you. Haha … "
"Then you're so lucky." Xu Yun said faintly, "Actually, I thought about bringing Uncle Tang over today, but I think it's better for you to do some things yourself. But you didn't mention it. I think you must have your own reasons. "
Tang Jiu nodded without hesitation. "Actually, I really can't wait to see my father. Previously, I really wanted to bring him over to celebrate with me. But later, I gave up on the idea because I was afraid. I was afraid that I would cry. I didn't want to cry in front of so many people. But I'm sure that if my father was by my side, I wouldn't be able to control myself tonight. "
Xu Yun smiled understandingly. "As the female CEO of a corporation, of course, you can't be a crying little girl. Alright, you can see Uncle Tang tomorrow. Now, you can't see him even if you're dying. "
"I want to go there later." Tang Jiu said, "I want to go to my father's place tonight. Xu Yun, arrange for my people to stay. I want to go to my father's place …"
Xu Yun naturally understood the feelings between father and daughter. He didn't think too much about it. "Alright, I'll arrange for someone to send us off. But you have to promise me that you won't drink anymore. I don't want your father to see a drunk woman. It's too bad for my standards. "
"Tsk, I don't mind even if I drink a few more glasses." Tang Jiu didn't care.
"First, tell me if you agree or not. If you still want to drink, then I won't take responsibility. You can think of a way yourself. Don't tell Uncle Tang that you drank at my place." Xu Yun insisted.
Tang Jiu hurriedly agreed. "I promise that I won't touch a drop of alcohol from now on, okay? You're really an auntie now. Did you grow up drinking the water of the Pacific Ocean? You're such a busybody … "
Before Tang Jiu could finish, more than ten cars entered the courtyard of the hotel one after another. The headlights were so bright that they couldn't open their eyes. Xu Yun was stunned. At this time, they couldn't be here to eat. Were they here to stay? But today, all the available rooms were arranged for the people of Tang Group. There probably weren't that many available rooms.
Seeing a BMW 760Li stop in front of them and someone come out to open the door for them, Tang Jiu guessed that this was a big boss. Why did he look for a hotel at this time? If such a big boss wanted to stay, his secretary would have booked it in advance.
