When Xu Jianguo returned to the cafeteria, everyone was already seated.
When everyone saw him come back, they all smiled. Su Dingshan waved at him, signaling him to come over quickly.
Seeing this, Xu Jianguo hurriedly walked over with the cardboard box in his arms.
"Sorry to have kept you waiting!" Xu Jianguo put the cardboard box on an empty table beside him and said.
"What good wine have you brought, boy? Take it out and show it to us!" Su Dingshan said with a smile.
Xu Jianguo knew that he was a wine lover, so he didn't hesitate and first took out two bottles of Moutai from his bag, and then took out two bottles of Xifeng from the carton.
Originally, the group had no reaction when they saw Moutai, because Moutai's white porcelain bottle is not transparent and people cannot see the color of the wine inside.
But when he put Xifeng on the table, Su Dingshan's eyes immediately widened.
He snatched the bottle and looked at it carefully in front of his eyes.
At this moment, the amber-colored, slightly viscous liquid in the transparent glass bottle was filled with extreme attraction.
Su Dingshan couldn't help swallowing his saliva as he watched, and said, "Boy, this isn't the Xifeng you gave me last time, right?"
Xu Jianguo nodded and said, "No, this one should be older. I didn't notice it when I brought it to you last time, and the box was pushed to the bottom."
"I told you! Hurry up, open it and let us taste it!" Su Dingshan said impatiently.
At this time, not only Su Dingshan was anxious, even the two old men wanted to taste the wine in the bottle. This more direct experience made the two bottles of century-old Moutai on the side temporarily lose their luster.
When Xu Jianguo opened the bottle cap of Xifeng Liquor, the whole cafeteria was filled with the sounds of people gasping and swallowing.
Xu Jianguo poured half a jar of white wine into the enamel jars in front of the three old men in turn, and then poured a little into the cups of Ma Guoliang, Dong Jixiang and himself.
After everyone's glasses were filled with baijiu, the two elders stood up and raised their glasses, saying, "Comrades, we are very happy to come to Binhai this time, because I see hope for our country's future here, and you have never let your country down. So, this first glass of wine, we want to toast everyone here..."
As the old man stood up, everyone also stood up with their wine glasses, looking at the two old men in front of them with burning eyes, their blood boiling in their hearts.
Today's dinner lasted for more than an hour. When the group walked out of the cafeteria, it was already dark.
Xu Jianguo brought a total of eight bottles of liquor this time, and now there are six bottles left. Two bottles of Centennial Moutai and Siping Centennial Xifeng were held in the arms of Su Dingshan's guard Liang Tian.
Although white wine is good, everyone present is extremely self-disciplined, so no one drinks too much.
But before leaving, the two old men said they would take the liquor back to Jingzhou and let the other old friends taste it.
Xu Jianguo naturally had no objection and agreed readily.
"Commander, what are the arrangements for now?" Xu Jianguo was the last one to walk out of the cafeteria. He came to Ma Guoliang and asked in a low voice.
But Ma Guoliang said directly: "Old men don't want to stay overnight with us!"
"What?" Xu Jianguo was startled and asked, but his voice was a little loud and was heard by the two old men.
"Jianguo boy, what's wrong?"
Xu Jianguo took two quick steps and came to their side and said, "Report, I just asked our commander how to arrange your accommodation tonight, but he said you three won't be staying with us, so I was a little surprised."
After hearing this, the old man smiled and nodded, saying, "Your commander is right. The current situation does not allow us to leave Jingzhou for a long time. The main reason we came here this time is because Old Man Su kept nagging us. In addition, we really wanted to meet you, little one. Now that we have eaten and drunk, and your award has been given to you, we will return."
After listening to this, Xu Jianguo lowered his head with some disappointment, but he also knew that what the old man said was right, but he couldn't help feeling reluctant.
Everyone naturally noticed Xu Jianguo's disappointment. The old man couldn't help but smile and said, "Jianguo, I heard from Old Man Su that you rejected his invitation to go to Jingzhou. Although I don't know what you are thinking, I think that gold will shine wherever it is. I hope that the next time we meet, you can bring us even bigger surprises!"
Xu Jianguo didn't expect the old man to say such a thing. He stood there in a daze for a moment, not knowing how to respond.
After a while, he nodded vigorously and said, "Please rest assured, I will not let you down."
"Okay, let's wait and see!"
At this time, Su Dingshan looked at Xu Jianguo, who seemed to be hesitant to speak, and said, "Jianguo, just say whatever you want to say, don't be so hesitant!"
"Yes! That's right, can I make a small request?" Xu Jianguo said with courage, scaring Ma Guoliang and Dong Jixiang beside him so much that they shuddered all over and looked at their beloved general with frowns on their faces.
"Okay, what do you want?"
"These are the photos of you and I that I took before. Can you give me a few individual photos when the time comes?" Xu Jianguo said a little nervously.
"Hahaha, of course. Even if you don't tell me, I'll have someone mail the photos to you once they're developed. Just wait patiently!"
When Xu Jianguo heard this, his face lit up with joy, and he quickly said, "Great!"
