"King Yu is late!"
Jing Zhe laughed and said, "But it doesn't matter. Our opening ceremony isn't over yet, and King Yu is here to wrap things up."
"..."
The mighty King Yu, who was always a heavyweight at the very beginning of every opening ceremony, actually came and only came to the very end…
In front of so many people, King Yu could only smile.
Seeing King Yu's humiliated expression, Jing Zhe sneered inwardly.
Yesterday afternoon, he sent Chen Jiannan to the Yuwang Mansion and specifically told him that the opening time today was after 7:30 AM. However, the Yuwang deliberately made things difficult for Chen Jiannan, saying that it was too early to get up after 7:30 AM. In fact, he just didn't want them to open at the chosen auspicious time and just wanted to annoy them.
Chen Jiannan, being of such low status, naturally dared not say anything and could only nod in agreement.
However, Jing Zhe would not indulge King Yu's bad habits.
You think it's too early?
Are you late?
Then I won't wait for you. I'll make you finish this job and see who loses face in the end!
As expected, King Yu chose the last minute to come, and he was the one who ended up being laughed at!
Yu Wang nodded with a forced smile. Then Jing Zhe said a few very clichéd words. Jing Zhe, Mu Qingren, Yu Wang, and Yu Li each grabbed a rope attached to the red cloth covering the plaques, and with a strong pull, the plaques of Da'an Newspaper Office, Wenxiangju, and Zhangjia Winery were revealed to everyone.
The calligraphy on the plaque, in particular, was vigorous and powerful, yet neat and beautiful, drawing admiration from everyone.
Then the distinguished guests who came to attend the opening ceremony began to give gifts, mostly congratulatory couplets and plaques.
After everyone had finished seeing off their loved ones, everyone looked at King Yu.
It's one thing that King Yu arrived last, but now that everyone else has already given their congratulatory gifts, if he doesn't give one, it would be a slap in the face to Jing Zhe, clearly disrespecting him!
At this moment, King Yu slapped his forehead and said in a pretentious manner, "Look at my memory! I had prepared a congratulatory gift for President Jing, but I was in such a hurry to leave that I forgot. I'm so sorry!"
He said he was sorry, but his expression was extremely smug; he was deliberately trying to embarrass Jing Zhe.
However, Jing Zhe didn't care at all and laughed loudly, "King Yu, there's no need to blame yourself, because I understand!"
"..."
You understand? You don't understand anything!
King Yu secretly complained.
At this moment, Jing Zhe smiled and said to the onlookers, "So many distinguished guests have come to show their support today, and I want to thank you all! But the person I am most grateful to today is King Yu!"
"..."
King Yu nodded and puffed out his chest, secretly pleased with himself, but at the same time he looked down on Jing Zhe: I was so against you, but you couldn't do anything about it, and in the end you had to fawn over me?
"Yesterday I made a special trip to Yuwang Mansion to visit Yuwang and invite him to attend the opening ceremony. It was then that I heard that Yuwang was not doing well... no, his back was not doing well."
We men all know what a bad back means, so this is no small matter! King Yu had originally arranged for a specialist to examine his back today, but in order to attend today's opening ceremony, he refrained from doing so. I am extremely grateful for this!
"..."
After saying this, King Yu was dumbfounded. When he saw the knowing, unspoken look in everyone's eyes as they glanced at his groin, a look that only men could understand, he became furious!
"President Jing, don't talk nonsense... My back... I only strained it the night before last... that's all!"
King Yu said unhappily.
"I understand, I understand, I understand everything!"
Jing Zhe nodded quickly, looking like he understood.
You son of a bitch... you know nothing!
Hearing Jing Zhe say this, King Yu became even angrier.
After hearing Jing Zhe's explanation, and considering Yu Wang's hesitant rebuttal, the onlookers also understood: Men, well...
"My back is really strained!"
"King Yu, there's no need for further explanation. We all understand!"
Everyone nodded in agreement, indicating that they understood.
"..."
King Yu was seething with anger and didn't want to stay there any longer. Before he could speak, Jing Zhe interjected, "The opening ceremony is over. Why don't you go back, King Yu? After all, a bad back is no small matter! A man can be weak anywhere else, but his back can't be weak! You should go back and get your back treated!"
"..."
I originally wanted to leave, but now I can't, because if I leave now, it will confirm the rumors that I'm incapable.
Yu Wang waved his hand and gritted his teeth, saying, "I've already told President Jing that my back was just slightly strained, and I'm much better now."
As he spoke, King Yu twisted his body, seemingly to prove to everyone that he was capable, and then said, "The opening ceremony is over. I heard that Wenxiangju and the newspaper are offering special deals? I'd like to check them out myself!"
Jing Zhe sneered inwardly, but said aloud, "Can King Yu's back... hold up?"
"How many times have I told you? It was just a slight stretch!"
"Okay, then everyone, please come inside with me!"
"..."
...
Like King Yu, the crown prince arrived late, even later than his father.
When he arrived, he happened to see Jing Zhe publicly exaggerating his father's "impotence," and his father had no choice but to offer a few forced explanations.
The crown prince of Yu was furious. After thinking for a moment, he whispered a few words in the ear of his attendant, who then ran away.
As soon as Jing Zhe shouted "Come in!", everyone rushed into Wenxiangju like crazy. In no time, the lobby on the first floor of Wenxiangju was packed with people, and all the tables and chairs were occupied.
Because there were so many people today, many couldn't get a seat and were sighing and complaining.
At this moment, Jing Zhe came to the front desk and said with a smile, "Everyone, don't be in a hurry. People who come to Wenxiangju are simply looking to taste the strong liquor from our distillery. Wenxiangju and our distillery will always be in Ruzhou City, so you'll have plenty of opportunities then!"
"..."
Everyone fell silent: What we lack is not the opportunity to drink strong liquor, but the opportunity to drink free strong liquor!
At that moment, a sudden voice rang out from the crowd.
"What kind of liquor dares to call itself 'strong liquor'? Are you trying to fool people?!"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone's eyes turned to him.
Upon hearing this voice, King Yu raised an eyebrow, then turned to look, his brow furrowing.
Although the person speaking was not from the Yu King's mansion, he was a frequent visitor and often accompanied his son. Since he spoke at this time, it was naturally at the behest of his son, the Yu King's heir. So he squinted and looked in the direction of the Yu King's heir.
The Crown Prince of Yu naturally knew what his father was worried about. He nodded slightly to him, indicating that he should be mindful of his words, then turned around and sneered.
Didn't you want your business to have a grand opening?
I'm not trying to disgust you!
