Chapter 171 Going North to Beijing

Jiangdong quickly waved his hand to Yingying: "Yingying, be careful! Otherwise, I won't bring you next time!"

"Okay okay..." Yingying said reluctantly, but her steps stopped immediately.

"This is still like a little human." Jiang Dong praised Yingying.

Wen Jie hurriedly led Jiang Dong into the back: "Brother Dong, let's go in!"

"Okay!" Jiang Dong said, walking in front of He Ye and Yingying. Yingying looked around behind He Ye, her big curious eyes turned around.

The waiter in the glass door saw a few people, opened the door and said, "Welcome! Sir, do you have a reservation?"

"We are from the Academy of Sciences!" Wen Jie said.

The waiter then woke up and said, "Oh, I understand! Sir, please come with me!"

Wen Jie looked at Jiangdong and followed the waiter upstairs. Jiangdong said in his heart, it was a high-end hotel. As soon as he entered the door, he asked if he had made an appointment!

In a room upstairs, there were all the tableware ready, and two beautiful waitresses stood beside them, wearing golden cheongsams, smiling faces, and respectfully standing there.

After everyone sat down, the waiter immediately handed the drinks list. Wen Jie didn't even look at it and handed it to Jiangdong: "Brother Dong, order it! Please whatever you want!"

"I have never seen the food here, and I don't know if it's delicious. You should order it! Just be simpler." Jiang Dong refused Wen Jie's kindness, mainly because he had never been to such a high-end place, and felt a little uncomfortable all over.

"Sir, all the dishes we have here are made by national special chefs. The national banquet-level standards are definitely in line with your appetite! What dishes do you like to eat in your daily life?" A waitress said to Jiangdong.

Jiangdong looked at the waitress and felt that even the waiter here was so skillful, and he must have been recruited after thousands of choices!

Wen Jie said straight to the waiter: "It's the first time we're here, so you can come to the table according to the normal specifications!"

"Okay! Sir, please wait, come soon!"

"Hey, hey!" Jiang Dong said again, "Don't serve too much, just have a few dishes, and you can't eat too much, so as not to waste it! We have to think about the country, save some if we can!"

Wen Jie smiled and said, "Brother Dong, our research institute is so big, so it's not that little money! You'll know when you go in and take a look. Which project is not tens of millions of research funds! The scientists and scholars from abroad eat the most advanced dishes here, so we can't be too different, right? Don't worry, come here, just follow our arrangements!"

When the waiter heard their conversation, he smiled and went out to prepare, while the other one stayed in the room to pour water for everyone.

He Yeh Wen said: "Do those foreign heads of state come here to have dinner when they come to Beijing?"

When the waiter heard He Ye’s question, he quickly replied: “What you are talking about is Diaoyutai State Guesthouse, which is not the same unit as our hotel! The State Guesthouse is right next to our hotel, which is dedicated to receiving foreign guests. You can see the State Guesthouse from the room upstairs! If you want to visit the State Guesthouse, there is a passage at the back of the downstairs of our hotel. After you get the ID, you can visit some courtyards of the State Guesthouse!”

"Oh? You can still visit? Shouldn't the State Guesthouse be on high alert?" Jiang Dong couldn't help asking after hearing the waiter's words.

"Of course, you are very cautious! But if you have a companion, you will always give you guidance!" said the waiter.

After listening to each other, Jiangdong took the lead and said, "Don't go!"

"Sister-in-law, you are here in Beijing for the first time. After dinner, I will take you around! There are attractions nearby. Behind the hotel is Yuyuantan Park. Further ahead are the CCTV Tower and the Pacific Underwater World Expo, as well as the Capital Museum, the Chinese People's Revolutionary Military Museum, the World Art Center, and many famous places!" Wen Jie said to everyone.

Yingying heard Wen Jie's introduction and said happily: "Okay, okay, then we will go to the underwater world you mentioned in the afternoon! I want to see how the fish there are different from those in Changbai Mountain!"

"Yingying!" Jiang Dong shouted in a low voice! Yingying curled her mouth and turned her mouth blank. Jiang Dong stopped talking. She knew that Jiang Dong was going to say that she was no longer like anyone else.

"Haha, it doesn't matter! You have to stay there for a while anyway, and I'll take you to play slowly in the future!" Wen Jie said quickly when he saw Yingying's expression.

After a while, several waiters came in as soon as the gate opened. Each of them was holding a dish. The waiter who stayed here quickly stepped forward and took it one by one, introducing the name of the dish while serving it to the table: "Spicy and sour mugfish egg soup, Liuxi meatballs, four treasure cups of abalone, stewed sea cucumbers with golden rice, squirrel mandarin fish, bawang fried shrimp balls, black pepper cowboy bones, peach roasted duck breast, a total of eight dishes! What wine do you use?"

Wen Jie looked at Jiangdong. Jiangdong thought for a while and said, "Come on the bottle of Maotai, it's 67 degrees, and then some juice!"

"Okay, wait!" After that, the waiter went out to prepare the drinks.

"Brother Dong, I can't drink alcohol, I have to drive in the afternoon! I'll drink juice with your sister-in-law!" Wenjie said, turning the dishes on the table.

"I know you have to drive, and I didn't say I'll let you drink it! A bottle of Moutai is my own."

"Ah? Have you drunk all the bottle of Maotai? This is high-level wine!" Wen Jie asked with his big mouth. He had never seen anyone who could kill a bottle of high-level wine, and it sounded incredible.

He Ye looked at Wen Jie and smiled and said, "He will drink another bottle as he wants, just like a drunkard!"

When Jiang Dong heard He Ye's words, he quickly defended himself: "Hey, don't say that bad! What is a drunkard? A drunkard drinks every meal. I don't drink every day, so it's not only once every once in a while!"

Wen Jie felt that Jiangdong's alcohol tolerance was not simple after hearing He Ye's words. After Jiangdong finished speaking, he asked He Ye: "When we were in Tibet, Brother Dong could drink it. He drank all the horse milk wine we all bought! Sister-in-law, how much can my Brother Dong drink at the most?"

"Well..." He Ye thought about it before saying, "I just remember that he drank a lot when we got married. According to the custom, he could not toast at the table. When others got married, they would toast one cup at a table, and he toast one cup for each person! I counted it for him, and he drank for forty-seven cups of one or two cups, and he didn't have anything to do after drinking it. He played for an afternoon!"

"Forty-seven...isn't that four and a half pounds?" Wen Jie said in surprise, "Fortunately I have to drive, otherwise I would have been killed by Brother Dong!"

"Haha, drink your own, I won't feed you!" Jiang Dong smiled, "I've been an orphan since I was a child. I grew up eating a hundred foods in the village. I should toast more wine! By the way, Wenjie, bring me some mammal wine when I go to Tibet next time. That wine is good!"

"No problem!" Wen Jie responded confidently.

When He Ye heard Wen Jie talk about Tibet, he knew that it was Jiangdong who went to the snow mountain to find the thousand-year-old snow lotus for himself. He also knew that he followed the expedition team. These were all told to her later, but Jiangdong did not tell her about the matter with the plateau.

After dinner, Jiangdong went upstairs to look at the room, then led He Ye, Yingying and Wenjie to play nearby for a long time, and did not enter the gate of the Academy of Sciences until the evening.

He Ye and Yingying stayed in the hotel to rest, while Jiangdong was taken to a conference room on the third floor of the Academy of Sciences by Wen Jie, and then Wen Jie went out.

Jiangdong waited in the conference room for a while, and the footsteps of several people came from outside. Then Wen Jie opened the door from outside. First, when he entered Jiangdong, he looked at a familiar face. He hurriedly stood up and shouted: "Professor Wang!"

"Oh, Jiangdong! Long time no see, long time no see! You kid are still so energetic!" Professor Wang Fangchen stretched out his right hand and grabbed Jiangdong tightly, then patted Jiangdong on the shoulder and said.

"Where is, professor, your health is really good. I may not dare to enter the mountain at your age!" Jiangdong said politely.

Professor Wang immediately introduced the people behind Jiangdong: "Come on, let's get to know Jiangdong. This is Jiangdong from Shennongjia. The last time we found the savage was completed by him! If it weren't for him, our inspection team might not have been able to get out of Shennongjia!"

Jiang Dong lowered his head and smiled embarrassedly.

"This is the deputy director of the Institute of Geology and Geophysics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Feng Tao!"

Jiangdong stepped forward and shook hands with the middle-aged and slightly fat man in his forties. Feng Tao also said: "Jiangdong, I have heard Professor Wang talk about you a long time ago. It was a real result when I saw you today. What a slim young man!"

"This is the commissioner of the National Earthquake Administration, Lu Zhenglin!"

Lu Zhenglin was wearing a straight suit and looked like a government official. Following Professor Wang's introduction, he stepped forward to shake hands with Jiangdong and greeted him. A slightly younger man behind him was wearing a sportswear, his hair was cut short and his face was slightly dark. He stepped forward and introduced himself: "Doctor of Geophysics, Luo Wei, from China University of Geosciences!"

Jiang Dong nodded and smiled, "Hello!"

"This old man is my colleague, an academician of the Academy of Ecological Civilization Engineering, Sima Bo! He is also my former partner. We have led the research team to Shennongjia twice!" Professor Wang continued.

"Hello, Professor Sima!" Jiang Dong politely shook Professor Sima.

Everyone immediately sat down under the command of Professor Wang. Luo Wei first stood up and held a book of materials and said: "Everyone knows that a magnitude 7:1 earthquake occurred in Yushu County, Yushu Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Qinghai Province on the 14th. As of 4:00 pm, it was counted that more than 400 people died in Yushu earthquake area and tens of thousands were injured. Of course, this statistical data is being renovated every day. The death toll has reached 2,000! Two years ago, on May 12, a magnitude 8 earthquake occurred in Wenchuan at 2:30 pm, with a total of 70,000 people killed, 370,000 injured, and 18,000 missing!"
