Chapter: 4229
When Chen Ning came down from the fishing boat with Tan Lang and others.
Liu Zhenping greeted him excitedly: "Congratulations to the governor and all the officers and men on their triumphant return."
Chen Ning and Liu Zhenping hugged each other intimately, and then said with a smile: "General Liu, you sit in the rear and act as our solid backing to prevent the enemy's regular troops from acting rashly. You have worked hard."
Liu Zhenping laughed and said, "Subordinates dare not take credit."
"The triumphant return of the great governor this time is a good thing for the whole world to celebrate."
"Naihe is not suitable for publicity."
"So I just prepared a simple celebration banquet in the cafeteria of our naval headquarters, and had a drink or two with the governor and the brothers who returned from the expedition."
Chen Ning smiled: "Very well, keep a low profile."
"Go, go back and talk about it."
Soon, everyone returned to the Navy Headquarters.
In the cafeteria, it was arranged as a place for a celebration banquet.
On the table, there are all kinds of exquisite dishes, as well as special drinks for the military.
Chen Ning, Tan Lang, Po Jun, Seven Kills, and Dian Chu Wei Yan attended the celebration banquet.
In addition to the admiral Liu Zhenping and other admirals, Jiangnan Province Zun and other leaders accompanied him.
Almost all insiders.
But there are exceptions.
Several wealthy squires from Jiangnan Province actually appeared at the celebration banquet and sat at the end table of the celebration banquet.
Although it is the last table of the celebration banquet.
But these squires were also very excited.
What an honor it is to be able to drink with the lord Chen Ning, the commander-in-chief of the Northern Frontier Army, Tanlang, the commander-in-chief of the Jiangnan Army, Liu Zhenping, and the deputy commander-in-chief of the Beijing Garrison, Dian Chu.
This can no longer be said to be smoke from the ancestral tomb, but a fire from the ancestral tomb.
Of course, there was a reason why these wealthy squires were invited to attend the celebration banquet.
They are all wealthy tycoons in the south of the Yangtze River, and they are also leaders in the fishery industry in the south of the Yangtze River.
In this battle of Shenlong Island, many fishing boats were requisitioned, all of which were from several of their families.
All of them have made contributions.
Therefore, they have a place at today's celebration banquet.
Among the squires, the person who had the most fishing boats conscripted was Zhou Wanli, known as the Fisher King.
At this moment, several colleagues couldn't help complimenting Zhou Wanli in low voices, and they all said enviously: "Boss Zhou, this time your Zhou family has produced the most fishing boats to support the battle of Shenlong Island."
"Mr. Chen must be very satisfied with you. I can't help but praise you well later. I'm envious."
Zhou Wanli's face was flushed, and he was in distress. JrNovels.com
