Yang Jie had a small amount of white wine absorbed into his body, and he was not afraid of Jimmy's astonishing drinking capacity. In front of leaders such as Zhou Dalong, he went back and forth with Jimmy, and in just half an hour, more than ten bottles of Yuhe grain liquor were drunk by the two of them.
After drinking a dozen or so bowls of millet wine, Jimmy felt wave after wave of intoxication rising to his head. Rarely getting drunk in his life, Jimmy rarely felt the intoxicating sensation rising to his head, and the refreshing feeling in his heart was simply indescribable.
Looking at Yang Jie, who was still sober in front of him, Jimmy's movements slowed down, and with a thick tongue, he said to Yang Jie with satisfaction: "Jie, you are the first person to get me drunk alone. I like you! I believe that wine quality is like human quality, we will definitely become good friends!"
"Jimmy, you're also one of the most astonishing drinkers I've ever seen. For our friendship, let's down it!" Yang Jie personally opened a bottle of Liuhe grain liquor, poured two cups in front of Jimmy, raised his own cup and said after finishing it in one gulp.
Jimi indeed had a good drink, and at this time he was already drunk, but he still didn't talk nonsense. Seeing Yang Jie drinking the wine in front of him, he also slowly picked up his bowl and drank the white wine in it mouthful by mouthful.
"Mr. Luo, Mr. Jimmy can't drink anymore, he'll get drunk if he drinks more!" Zhou Dalong said to Luo after seeing that Jimmy had almost finished drinking and Yang Jie had successfully completed his task of accompanying him in drinking, with a satisfied and appreciative look on his face.
"Secretary Zhou, Luo Lun said that Jimmy rarely gets drunk. He's drinking with Yang Jie just to get drunk. He told us not to worry about Jimmy, nothing will happen to him. From now on, he and Mr. Jamieson will be in charge of project investment matters, and it won't delay the normal negotiation work." Xiao Yuan translated Luo Lun's words to Zhou Daliang with a smile.
"Alright! It's getting late, Director Chen. Go to the guest house and book two rooms. Later, let Mr. Jimmy and Yang Jie rest for a while, they won't need to go to the factory anymore. Arrange someone to take good care of Mr. Jimmy." Zhou Dalong said as he stood up, looking at Jimmy who had finished that bowl of wine and was completely drunk, and immediately instructed Chen Yuan.
"Don't worry, Secretary. I'll personally stay at the guest house and take good care of Mr. Jimmy!" Chen Yuan saw Jimmy's face break into a happy smile, his whole body went limp like he had no bones, and he collapsed onto the chair, luckily Yang Jie had seen the situation was not good and supported Jimmy, otherwise he might have really crawled under the table.
Rolen and Jamison can be Jimmy's right-hand man, naturally the wine capacity will not be bad. They see Yang Jie so capable of drinking, unexpectedly getting drunk with Wine King Jimmy who is famous for his wine capacity in the Italian business circle. At this time, Yang Jie still looks like a person who has nothing to do with it, and he really shocked them.
"Jie, your family is indeed a wine maker's, the skill of drinking, we admire!" Jamesson looked at Yang Jie, giving Yang Jie a thumbs up, not showing any intention of covering for his boss who was drunk by Yang Jie.
"My drinking capacity is innate, I didn't know before, I can actually drink so much, just now when I was drinking, I didn't feel anything, but now my head is starting to spin, it's really embarrassing. Jamison, Roland, I won't be able to accompany you to the mechanical factory inspection, hope you have a pleasant afternoon." Yang Jie said with a pretended drunken posture, staggering forward and shaking hands with Roland and Jamison.
"Don't worry!" Jamieson smiled and followed Roland, accompanied by Xiao Yuan and others, and walked out of the VIP room with Zhou Daliang and other leaders of Huaihe County.
Chen Yuan sent Zhou Dalong and others out of the reception room, then brought three county government staff members back to the box, preparing to support Jimmy and Yang Jie to rest in the guest room.
Liu Daxing and Wang Yue'e just didn't know about Yang Jie's drinking game with Jimmy, until Zhou Dalong and the others left, then they heard the news. After sending off Zhou Dalong and the others from the reception room, they rushed into the private room with Chen Yuan and the others.
Liu Daxing entered the house and first took a look at Yang Jie. Seeing that Yang Jie was not seriously injured, he then followed two county government staff members to help Jimmy, who was sitting in a chair, drunk, get up and walk out of the private room.
Chen Yuan looked at Yang Jie and saw that he wasn't very drunk, so she let another staff member follow Liu Daxing and the others to escort Jimmy to his room. After all, with a height of 1.88 meters and a weight that was no light matter.
Wang Yue'e entered the private room and ignored Liu Daxing and others, walked up to Yang Jie's side with a pained expression and said: "Xiao Jie, you're going to kill yourself! How can you drink so much wine? Don't you know your own capacity?"
"Aunt, it's nothing! I'm fine, aren't I? Just a bit dizzy, and I'll be okay after resting for a while." Yang Jie said reassuringly as he looked at Wang Yue'e in front of him, quickly getting up and taking a few steps.
"Manager Wang, Yang Jie's capacity for liquor, I've seen it today, he's a real wine immortal! You can rest assured, he speaks clearly, walks steadily, and shows no signs of intoxication at all, so don't worry about him!"
Chen Yuan stood at the entrance of the private room, seeing off Liu Daxing and others leaving the reception hall to the VIP building in the backyard. Only then did he turn around and walk into the private room, where he saw Yang Jie walking steadily in the private room, without any sign of drunkenness. He knew that Yang Jie had been pretending to be drunk earlier, and his heart was filled with admiration for Yang Jie's capacity for liquor.
"You little rascal, you're not letting us have an easy time!" Wang Yue'e turned her gaze to Jimmy after seeing that Yang Jie was indeed fine, "So this is the foreign businessman who can hold his liquor? Good grief, the two of them drank eighteen bottles of Jiuhua grain liquor, and this guy's capacity for drink is really frightening!"
Chen Yuan heard the words and smiled bitterly in his heart, glancing at Yang Jie not far away. He thought to himself, "Jimi drank nearly ten kilograms of white wine and passed out, indeed his alcohol tolerance is astonishing. But look at your nephew Yang Jie, who also drank that much, yet he's as calm as if nothing happened. Who's the freak, really?"
"Yang Jie, you did a great job today! Secretary Zhou and Secretary Lei are both very satisfied with you. Just now when you were drinking with Jimmy, they were discussing that after returning to the county, they will give you an award!" Chen Yuan smiled at Yang Jie, knowing about the special relationship between Yang Jie's family and Secretary Zhou, so she stayed behind to tell him something.
Yang Jie smiled slightly upon hearing this, earlier Zhou Dali and Zhang Dasen's conversation, although spoken in a very low voice, Yang Jie still heard it, so he was not surprised by what Chen Yuan said.
"Director Chen, I just fulfilled the tasks assigned to me by my superiors. The commendation is undeserved. From now on, Yang Jie will be a soldier under Director Chen's command. Yang Jie will definitely be humble and prudent, work diligently, obey the requirements of the director and the organization, strive to complete the tasks assigned to me by the director and the organization, not disappoint Director Chen's expectations, and never bring shame to Director Chen or the county committee office."
Chen Yuan is not only the director of the county party committee office, but also a member of the county party committee standing committee, one of the twelve bigwigs in Xunhe County, and also Yang Jie's direct superior at this time. Although Yang Jie has Secretary Zhou taking care of him behind his back, Yang Jie knows that to go further within the system, he must not only know how to do things but also know how to get along with people, and more importantly, know how to respect his superiors.
"Not bad! You have the personality of not being arrogant in victory or discouraged in defeat! Secretary Zhou's vision is indeed unique, everyone he chooses is a talent!" Chen Yuan listened to Yang Jie putting her in charge before the organization, and was very satisfied in her heart. Her face remained calm, but with a hint of appreciation in her eyes, she said: "Little Yang, the Foreign Affairs Office for Overseas Chinese Affairs of the County Party Committee is a newly established independent department under the County Party Committee Office. Currently, this department only has two staff members responsible for overseas Chinese affairs, and with you, there will be three."
Although the work of the Foreign Affairs Office is relatively easy at present, with the increasing efforts of Huai'an County in attracting foreign investment, the work of the Foreign Affairs Office will be very busy in the future. Therefore, a person who can not only obey orders but also has the ability to take charge of this department's work is needed. So, you must work hard, understand?
"Don't worry, Director! Yang Jie will definitely work hard and won't let you down!" Yang Jie said with a sincere expression of gratitude.
Chen Yuan saw how clever Yang Jie was, able to grasp the meaning at once, and felt that he was born to be a smooth operator within the system. His favorable impression of Yang deepened, and with a nod of satisfaction, he said: "You also had quite a bit to drink earlier. Your room has already been arranged for you. We still have to rush back to the county this afternoon, so why don't you go rest for a while?"
"Alright! Don't worry, Director. I won't be late for work this afternoon." Yang Jie smiled upon hearing this, but he wasn't drunk at all. Whether he rested or not didn't make a difference. However, Chen Yuan's intentions were good. He and Wang Yue'e, who had a smile on her face, sent Chen Yuan to the VIP building before parting ways.
