Where did Jin Jiaxuan go?

In the "Lijing" banquet hall.

Shang Yang was in a state of restlessness, but nothing could be seen on the surface, and he looked at the people in the hall calmly.

The people who come to play are very friendly and enthusiastic. Every time a new guest comes to sit down, the people next to him will say hello to him, and every table is talking happily. For a while, it even looks like a wedding banquet. The people who come to participate are all familiar relatives and friends.

But this is absolutely impossible, at least most of the people I met on the first floor just now must have not known each other at that time, and the atmosphere at that time was not as lively as it is now.

Jiang Yunqi looked very happy and excited, and asked Shang Yang if he wanted to eat, and he went to the buffet to get it.This VIP seat does have special treatment. Immediately, a waiter came over and asked what he wanted to eat, and then took out a few plates and sent them over.

Shang Yang knew in his heart that Jiang Yunqi must have an unknown purpose now.

The two have not worked together in the past few years, but they have not broken off their contacts. Shang Yang thinks he understands Fa Xiao quite well, and he never thought that he would be suspected of pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger.It's just that there is very little effective information at this time, and it is hard to understand.

But one thing is very clear, Jiang Yunqi asked him to "calm down", he was cryptically emphasizing that he must not reveal his identity as a police officer.Whatever happens next, he should deal with it like an ordinary person.

Kong Yue finished chatting with the female assistant and sent her away. The female assistant went to the back of the main stage.

He sat down opposite Shang Yang and Jiang Yunqi, and asked Shang Yang with concern: "Aren't you used to it? Is it a bit noisy?"

Shang Yang said: "No. Hasn't the event started yet?"

Kong Yue said with a smile: "It's already started. I said it's nothing special. I just come up to eat, drink, make friends, and there will be performances later, and there will be a lottery."

Shang Yang nodded and said, "This event costs a lot."

Kong Yue said: "It's okay, everyone boarding the boat is not free of charge, the fare is quite expensive, we are with the boss of the boat."

He laughed to himself, as if he felt that he had told a funny joke.

Shang Yang had no choice but to laugh too.

Kong Yue seemed very interested in the relationship between Shang Yang and Jiang Yunqi, and said, "You two don't look like just colleagues."

Shang Yang wanted to answer that he was a master and apprentice, but Jiang Yunqi rushed to talk: "It's still a childhood sweetheart."

Kong Yue was startled, and said in a somewhat ambiguous tone, "So that's how it is."

What was it like?Shang Yang explained: "Mr. Kong, it's not what you think."

Kong Yue gave him a sly smile and said, "What am I thinking?"

Shang Yang: "..."

Jiang Yunqi asked as if he didn't understand: "What charades are you playing?"

Shang Yang didn't answer, Kong Yue said, "It's nothing."

Shang Yang is now sure, this Kong Yue is trying to flirt with him.

Moreover, Kong Yue is sure that he likes men. Is the gay temperament in him so obvious?

Conscience of heaven and earth, he doesn't feel that he is a gay man in the standard sense, any man other than Jin Xu is just a man to him.

There was a burst of drumming and BGM on the stage, and the host came out on stage. The host was the female assistant who was talking to Kong Yue just now.

Like holding an annual meeting, the opening speech thanked everyone present and introduced the sponsor company, Qianli Group.

A 6-[-]-minute commercial of "Qianli Group" was played on the projection screen in real time.

The production of the commercial is very beautiful, and it can be seen that a lot of money has been spent. Watching the introduction of the film, this group company mainly operates the tourism and cultural industry within the province. It has several resort hotels under its umbrella and has in-depth cooperation with several major travel agencies. , has also developed cultural and creative products with provincial characteristics, and has done a little work in inheriting and protecting intangible cultural heritage in the past two years.

...is really a big company.

After the commercial, the host introduced that the reason why Qianli Group chooses the "Lijing" to persist in giving back activities all the year round is because it does not forget its original intention.

More than ten years ago, Qianli Group set sail on a river view cruise ship. From an unknown Qianli Travel Agency, it developed step by step into a Qianli Tourism Company, and finally achieved today’s Qianli Group. The founder, Mr. Kong Yue, also started from a An ordinary tour guide, starting from scratch, has grown into a leader in the tourism industry in our province...

Shang Yang:? ? ?

Kong Yue smiled at him at the right time, three points proud, four points aloof and five points condescending, which means "you know who I am, it's your honor to be liked by me".

Shang Yang was taken aback by this man.

Next is the performance. The host introduced that he invited the famous singer XX to sing "A Thousand Miles of Love" for everyone.

This "famous" is not a fake "famous". She is a well-known folk singer and a frequent guest of the Spring Festival Gala.

Shang Yang was shocked. He thought that the people who would come to this kind of occasion to perform might be some Internet celebrity singers, at most unknown artists on the [-]th line. He didn't expect such a small boat to invite such a great god.

Kong Yue said: "She happened to come here for vacation. I heard that there is an event today, and she came to play."

Although he explained it this way, there will be dance and opera performances later on. Shang Yang is not very familiar with the performers, but judging from the audience's reaction, they should all be well-known actors in the industry.

This appearance fee?Is it worth it?

Shang Yang has seen some "WeChat business" activities before, seemingly regardless of cost, inviting celebrities to join, all for the follow-up development of "members" and "offlines".

Whether "WeChat Business" is legal or not depends on the Direct Selling Law. "Qianli Group" is a tourism company. The "Direct Selling Law" clearly stipulates that tourism products are not within the scope of direct sales, and it must be illegal to engage in "direct sales" involving tourism products.

He began to suspect that this group of people was using the name of the so-called "Qianli Group" to engage in such activities on the "Lijing".The purpose, may be pyramid schemes?

Multilevel marketing has always been popular in this province, and Jin Xu's cross-provincial national security mission this time is also related to pyramid schemes.

If this is the case, if this activity continues, it's time to sell fake products.

The host came to the stage again, said some words of thanks, looked forward to the bright future of Qianli Group, and announced the start of the lottery draw.

It's just... really a lottery.The lucky draw box is pushed by the staff with a trolley, and it walks around the banquet hall in sequence, and every guest has the opportunity to participate.

The cart arrived at Shang Yang and Jiang Yunqi's table, and Kong Yue asked them to smoke too, saying, "Play around, the grand prize is the latest iPhone."

Jiang Yunqi smoked it, and Shang Yang, out of curiosity to see what was going on, also found a small ball from the box.

Both of them opened it to see that Jiang Yunqi had won the commemorative prize, which was a cultural and creative commemorative gift package produced by Qianli Group, but Shang Yang hadn't won anything.

There were more than a hundred guests present, and three lucky ones won the grand prize. They were invited to the stage by the host, and each of them received a new mobile phone.

Shang Yang noticed that one of these three people happened to be the old gentleman who just entered the door and recognized him by mistake, and asked him "Are you here?" Received the prize.

Kong Yue stood up and applauded, and went on stage to shake hands with the three winners, and the staff came to help them take a group photo.

Jiang Yunqi got a big gift bag and showed it to Shang Yang. All kinds of cultural and creative products, packaging bags and handbags were stamped with "Qianli Group", which looked decent.

The waiters pushed carts and handed out small souvenirs from table to table, and everyone had a pack of specialty snacks.

And then... no more.

Shang Yang kept waiting for something to happen, and in the end, nothing happened.

He could feel that Jiang Yunqi was also a little disappointed about this, but Jiang Yunqi concealed it very well, he looked like a little frustrated that he didn't get a mobile phone.

In today's occasion, no one is unhappy, and they really feel at home.

In less than half an hour, we will arrive at the end of the trip, the scenic wharf.

"Did you buy a one-way ticket?" Kong Yue asked, "How do you arrange it at night? Live in a scenic spot?"

Jiang Yunqi didn't intend to grab the conversation, so Shang Yang replied, "I don't know yet, we'll see when we get there."

Kong Yue said: "We opened the resort hotel, if you don't mind..."

Shang Yang said: "Don't bother, Mr. Kong is too polite, there is no need to meet by chance."

He refused very directly, without even a little detour.

Kong Yue probably didn't expect it, so he hesitated for a while before saying, "I thought we could chat very well, and I want to make you my friend."

Shang Yang hadn't thought of how to answer this kind of question, and if he refused again directly, the scene would be ugly.

Jiang Yunqi glanced at him, and said: "What's the point of making friends, it's rare that Mr. Kong thinks highly of it."

These words are in line with his personality today.

Kong Yue said: "Leave a contact information. If you need help with something, you can find me at any time. I am very familiar with both geography and human relations here."

Jiang Yunqi and him scanned the QR code, but Shang Yang had no choice but to add Kong Yue's WeChat.

It was evening when the ship docked and stopped at the pier.

Kong Yue didn't get off the boat for the time being, saying that he had something else to do, and he looked very busy.

But Shang Yang bid farewell to Jiang Yunqi and wanted to leave, and he insisted on giving it away. He treated Jiang Yunqi in such an ordinary manner, and showed every kind of reluctance towards Shang Yang. If it wasn't for the public, he would hold Shang Yang's hand several times Say goodbye.

When he was not mentioned as the "President of Qianli Group", he was not very oily, he was above average in appearance, polite, well-spoken, and his provocative words were within limits.

If Shang Yang is really a little gay who has never seen the world, the possibility of being caught by this cruise ship is extremely high.

At this time, Shang Yang just wanted to run away quickly.

After saying goodbye to Kong Yue repeatedly, he got off the boat with Jiang Yunqi, and before he stepped on the ground, he saw someone waiting below to pick him up.

But this person shouldn't be here? !

Jin Xu, who shouldn't be here, was not very happy. With his hands in his pockets, he looked at Shang Yang unfriendly, and then looked up at Kong Yue who was standing in the fence on the boat. I am reluctant to part with Shang Yang.

Shang Yang hadn't thought of this part yet, he was so surprised to see him, he walked down quickly, and Jiang Yunqi, who was walking in front, also hurried down.

Jiang Yunqi asked Jin Xu in surprise: "Why are you here, I didn't hear you were here?"

"I'll come when I'm free." Jin Xu nodded coldly to Jiang Yunqi as a greeting.

Then he reached out his hand to Shang Yang who still had two steps left to come down, intending to hold hands.

Surrounded by people, Shang Yang naturally refused to hold him. He just patted Jin Xu's palm and said in a low voice, "Crazy."

The cloud on Jin Xu's face dissipated, he withdrew his hand, put it back in his pocket, and glanced at Kong Yue on the deck, his eyes were a little smug.
