It was already past nine o'clock at night.
Chen Dong was preparing to wash up and then lie in bed to read for a while.
Suddenly, the mobile phone on the table rang.
"Young man, you've come all the way to Yanjing, why didn't you come to see this old man?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Dong knew it was Elder Lin.
He was immediately surprised. "Ah, Mr. Lin, how did you know I was here?"
"Hehe, you've made such a big fuss, how could I not know? A big Hong Kong businessman... Alright, don't interrupt me, tell me why you haven't come to see me!" Old Lin's tone was a bit harsh.
Chen Dong appeared somewhat flustered and said, "Old Lin, it's not that I didn't want to come see you, but there are still some things I haven't taken care of here. If I come to see you like this, what if I accidentally let something slip and cause you trouble, making you think I'm going to ask you for help? That would be terrible!"
"Hey kid, how dare you talk like that? You've come to me several times just to ask me for help, haven't you?"
"Old Lin, that's different. I prepared big gifts the last few times, but this time there won't be any fighter jets or anything like that."
"Heh, kid, do you think I'm someone who's short of gifts? Do you think I won't let you in just because you don't bring a gift? That's not how we Chinese treat guests! Besides, shouldn't a junior like you come to see me?"
"Alright, Mr. Lin, I really do want to visit you. I just finished my work today and now that I have some free time, I was thinking of going to see you!" Chen Dong quickly said, trying to appease him.
"That's more like it! Come over tomorrow! I'll have your family prepare some good food for you. You absolutely have to come tomorrow, I'll introduce you to someone!" Old Lin was finally amused.
"Oh, the matchmaker knows you! You're not going to introduce me to a wife, are you? You want to be a matchmaker?" Chen Dong was surprised.
"What matchmaker? You should be called the Old Man Under the Moon. Bah, do I need to introduce you to a wife? Don't you already have several girlfriends? ... I mean, I want you to meet my grandson. He's a good young man." Old Lin laughed and cursed a couple of times before speaking.
"Oh, that's great! Your grandson must be amazing too. I'll definitely go tomorrow!" Chen Dong readily agreed.
After hanging up the phone, Chen Dong found it amusing. He hadn't expected Old Lin's call to come at such a convenient time; he had just finished dealing with the hotel matter when Old Lin called.
However, it has been a long time since I've seen Old Lin, so I should go and visit him.
To be honest, chatting with Mr. Lin was quite interesting.
Today, it's hard to tell that he was once a killing machine on the battlefield, routing the invaders.
Instead, people would just think of him as a witty, humorous, and somewhat childlike old man.
Of course, Chen Dong wouldn't have any other thoughts, such as disrespect or treating him like an ordinary person.
After all, Elder Lin was a high-ranking official in China. Although he has now retired to the second line, he still has so many affairs to handle every day, working tirelessly for the country and its people, trying to find ways to make the country develop better and the people live better lives.
...
The next morning, Old Lin sent a car to pick them up again.
Chen Dong took out many gifts he had brought with him and selected some suitable ones to give to Old Master Lin.
These gifts were all purchased in Hong Kong and were originally intended to be given as gifts in Beijing.
The same security detail as last time, the same Hongqi car.
Upon seeing Elder Lin again, Chen Dong quickly greeted him.
"Mr. Lin, I'm bothering you again! It's been a while, but you're still as energetic as ever!"
He looked a little older than before, and his hair seemed to be whiter.
However, his back remained ramrod straight, standing there like a sharp sword.
Of course, the sword is now sheathed, but Chen Dong can still feel its imposing aura.
Thus, one can imagine how brave and fierce Lin Lao must have been in his youth.
Upon seeing Elder Lin, Chen Dong quickly stepped forward.
"You rascal, you still know how to talk! How is your arrival considered disturbing me? I'm more than happy to see you here!" Old Lin said in a hearty voice.
As he spoke, he strode forward from the opposite side and patted Chen Dong's shoulder forcefully.
Although Chen Dong considered himself to be in good health, he felt a sharp pain in his shoulder after being patted by Old Lin.
"Oh dear, Mr. Lin, you've got a really strong grip! Are you punishing me on purpose?" Chen Dong said to Mr. Lin with a smile as he put down the gift.
Old Lin glared at him, "You brat, you don't want to come see me, do you? Why are you talking so much nonsense?"
As he said this, Old Lin suddenly grabbed Chen Dong's forearm and dragged him into the study. "Come on, come on, come on, come with me quickly, I want to have a good talk with you!"
Chen Dong was afraid of causing Old Lin to fall, so he didn't struggle and let Old Lin pull his forearm forward.
Old Lin took a couple of steps, then stopped and said to his secretary, Xiao Wang, who was standing beside him, "Xiao Wang, go make some tea. Just make that... yes, the Fu brick tea that just arrived!"
"Brewing Fu brick tea?" Secretary Wang asked uncertainly.
"Yes, that's it!"
Secretary Wang nodded, indicating that he understood, and immediately turned and left. Because it is made in brick shape, it is also called Fu brick tea.
Chen Dong has some knowledge of Fu brick tea.
I know that in this day and age, Fu brick tea is considered a relatively high-end tea.
Like Pu-erh tea, Fu brick tea is a fully fermented tea. The longer this tea is stored, the stronger its aroma becomes, and the easier it is to brew.
Furthermore, because this tea contains probiotics, which appear as yellow granules called "golden flowers," these probiotics can effectively regulate human metabolism and have the effects of lowering lipids and blood pressure, as well as regulating carbohydrate metabolism, making it especially suitable for the elderly.
