Chapter 1,144 Unexpected Guest
"This is my business card. Please allow me to introduce myself. I am the chairman of the Siberian Mining Company and the Russian Asteroid Mining Company. It is a pleasure to meet you..." An old man in a tuxedo handed it out in a gentlemanly manner. He clinked glasses and shook hands with Jiang Chen enthusiastically.
"You, are you really Jiang Chen? Ah, I'm sorry, because the idol was standing in front of me, I was so excited that I lost my temper. Are you free tonight? Can I buy you a drink?" A certain person wearing The blonde female star in a low-cut evening dress looked at Jiang Chen with a foxy look on her face, not caring at all about the smile on the face of the female companion next to him. She was already close to the critical point of going crazy.
"Please allow me to toast you, the executive officer of the Earth Defense Alliance, the commander-in-chief of the Earth Fleet, the hero of human civilization..." A certain Chinese entrepreneur smiled, showing his white teeth, and held out the champagne in his hand and Jiang Chen Clink glasses, "I wish you a successful start and bring victory and glory back to your hometown."
"..."
Melodious music sounded in the banquet hall, saving Jiang Chen from being surrounded by flattery and flattery.
The male and female guests put down their wine glasses one after another and walked to the center of the dance floor hand in hand. Under the leadership of Tang Weijie and his wife, they entered the second stage of the banquet.
"This wine glass is really interesting. Is there a magnet underneath?"
Because he couldn't dance, Jiang Chen took Xia Shiyu's hand and walked to the long table in the rest area. After drinking the red wine in the glass in one gulp, he turned the glass over and looked at the bottom of the glass, feeling a layer of metal texture.
In order to prevent wine glasses from flying around in a low-gravity environment, magnets are installed on the long table covered with red cloth to attract the goblets placed on it. Not just the wine glasses, but the trays holding the food as well.
Although life on the moon is full of inconveniences, the creativity of working people is unlimited. You can see from the crowd dancing on the dance floor that everyone is enjoying the banquet with great joy.
"How do you feel? Is this banquet held for you to your liking?"
At the end of the banquet, Tang Weijie walked up to Jiang Chen with a wine glass and his wife's hand, and said with a smile.
"It's very good. I feel relieved to see the citizens of Guanghan City living so comfortably." Jiang Chen clinked glasses with him and said with a smile.
Tang Weijie's wife looks very young, only about 20 years old. Judging from her skillful, steady and well-spoken temperament, she must be a lady from a famous family, at least she was not born mediocre. She only said a few words and quickly established a relationship with Xia Shiyu who was beside Jiang Chen.
After the men started chatting about business,
She and Xia Shiyu walked to the side, laughing and chatting about topics that only women would talk about.
"It can't be said to be comfortable," Tang Weijie said with a smile and a sip of red wine. "It can only be said that we are groping to find a lifestyle that suits us. I remember when we first came here to work, we had nothing but The job is to stay in the gravity chamber and daze. Before the underground city was built, there was really nothing for entertainment on this desolate planet."
"Thank you for your hard work." Jiang Chen raised his wine glass, "I will record this credit for you."
"I don't dare. These are all what I should have done. How dare I take credit?" Tang Weijie said modestly as he clinked glasses with Jiang Chen.
"Guanghan City's model can be applied to other colonies, such as Mars colonies, and possible destinations on Callisto in the future. You provided a reference template for the Star Ring Trade's space colonization plan, why can't you claim credit? Again? Being modest is boring." Jiang Chen put down his wine glass, patted his shoulder and said with a smile.
While the two were chatting, a slightly older white man in a tuxedo belatedly walked into the banquet hall. He stretched his neck and looked around the venue. Soon his eyes lit up, he found the target he was looking for, and he walked over.
While chatting with Tang Weijie about things in the colony, Jiang Chen saw a somewhat familiar man walking towards him.
Before he could speak, a smile appeared on the man's face and he extended his right hand to greet him.
"We meet again, Mr. Jiang Chen."
Just when this man shook hands, Jiang Chen suddenly remembered where he had seen this face. But to be honest, he almost forgot about him after not seeing him for so long.
"Are you... Mr. Lodge?"
"It seems you haven't forgotten me yet." Luo Qi let go of his hand and teased in a teasing tone, but he didn't care that Jiang Chen didn't recognize him immediately.
Not to mention someone like him who has been behind the scenes for a long time and rarely appears in public. People of different races are born with face blindness buffs. Jiang Chen can still think of himself, which is already very good.
To be honest, he was ready to introduce himself again.
"...But why are you here?" Jiang Chen looked at him in confusion, frowning slightly, "I mean, shouldn't you be in Boston now? Why are you here..."
"To be precise, I was in Star Ring City eleven hours ago. But when I was about to go find you, I learned that you had already left. Coincidentally, there happened to be a flight to Guanghan City at that time. The flight was about to leave, so I came." Rocky smiled, "It just so happens that our consortium has invested in a rare earth mining company in Guanghan City, otherwise I would have to worry about how to get an invitation letter."
"Really? This is too coincidental." Jiang Chen said lightly.
The Boston Consortium is a bit too resourceful. There happens to be a flight to Guanghan City, so he can get the ticket just a few minutes before boarding? Although it is not the peak tourist season, it seems that this ticket is not so easy to buy, right?
I'm afraid this ferry ticket was purchased a few days in advance.
"It seems that you may have something to talk about, so I'll take my leave now." Seeing that he couldn't get anything to say, Tang Weijie left with his wife in a sensible manner.
Looking at the direction Tang Weijie left, Luo Qi smiled, then looked at Jiang Chen and said politely.
"I wonder if it would be convenient for me to take a step to talk?"
"It's not a gentlemanly thing to leave your female companion behind at a banquet. What do you think, Mr. Lodge?"
Hearing the hint of rejection in Jiang Chen's words, Luo Qi raised his eyebrows.
Xia Shiyu looked at Jiang Chen and was about to tell him that she wouldn't mind, but was stopped by Jiang Chen's eyes.
Ever since the Rothschilds were still there, he had not had a good impression of the "Wasps" on Wall Street.
The two sides have formed an alliance a long time ago to jointly fight against the Masonic forces headed by the Rothschild family. However, these Wall Street capitalists are all very smart. When Star Circle Trading and the Freemasonry are at odds with each other, they will not show any mercy and will not hesitate to take advantage.
After the fall of the Rothschild family, several WASP consortiums such as Morgan and Rockefeller took decisive action and cut off the two most juicy pieces of meat from this veteran capital giant - Brazilian Vale Company and BHP Mining Group.
These trophies should originally belong to the Star Ring Trade.
Under such circumstances, it would be strange for Jiang Chen to look good on them.
Not surprised by Jiang Chen's indifference, Luo Qi smiled, raised the goblet in his hand, took a sip of the red wine in the glass, and sighed.
"Oh? Even if what I want to talk about is related to CIA?" (To be continued.)
