Hong Kong Comprehensive: The Rise of the King
Chapter 322 It’s been done a long time ago
The day of the engagement ceremony.
The ceremony was held in the afternoon.
In the morning, Sheng Jiale was making final preparations and asked Tony if he had prepared the venue for the engagement ceremony, who were the guests, etc.
At this time, Sheng Jiale received the news that Lord Ding was about to arrive in Haojiang.
Sheng Jiale cheered up and immediately took Luo Tianhong to the Haojiang Pier.
Ding Ye is a respectable elder to Sheng Jiale, and he is also a big shot in the Hong Kong Island police. He has helped Sheng Jiale many times, so it is worthy of Sheng Jiale to come to the pier to greet him in person.
At the pier, an ordinary cruise ship docked.
Woo.
The whistle sounded, and then the dilapidated springboard was lowered by the watermen, and a large number of tourists walked down from it.
Among the crowd, Mr. Ding slowly walked out carrying a small suitcase.
Mr. Ding was wearing a gray silk shirt, loose trousers and sandals underneath, and a white hat. He looked like an old man on vacation.
People who don't know the inside story will never guess how powerful this old man is on Hong Kong Island.
Ding Ye walked to the edge of the pier with a cane and a bamboo and rattan suitcase in the other hand, and then looked around, looking for Sheng Jiale.
"Master Ding."
Sheng Jiale walked quickly to Master Ding and said with a smile.
Then he immediately took the suitcase from Ding Ye diligently and said, "Let me take it for you."
Master Ding chuckled and said, "I know you are getting engaged to Tian'er girl, so I have to come and have a good look."
"That's natural. No one can be missing you." Sheng Jiale said with a smile.
Originally, he wanted to charter a luxury cruise ship for Ding Ye.
However, when I thought that Master Ding had always kept a low profile, lived in an ordinary apartment, and never paid attention to ostentation when traveling, he gave up this idea.
After all, Master Ding has always been like this, especially as the Commissioner of the Police Department, he has to be careful at all times, so this time he came to Haojiang for an ordinary cruise.
"Master Ding, get in the car. Let's go home and have a rest first. The engagement ceremony won't be held until this afternoon."
Sheng Jiale said, leading Dingye into the car.
"Let's go." Sheng Jiale ordered, and then the motorcade drove towards the mountainside villa.
Among the villas.
Sheng Jiale chatted with Mr. Ding about some household matters. Just after taking a rest, he received news that Jiang Tiansheng had also arrived in Haojiang.
Sheng Jiale said sorry to Mr. Ding, and immediately took Luo Tianhong to the Haojiang Pier to meet Jiang Tiansheng.
"Mr. Jiang, welcome to Haojiang."
Sheng Jiale smiled and greeted Jiang Tiansheng.
"I haven't been here for a long time. The last time I came, the casino was open." Jiang Tiansheng said.
Sheng Jiale did not leave directly with Jiang Tiansheng. He was thinking in his mind that Huo Jingliang, Ding Ye, and Jiang Tiansheng had arrived now, and Meng Dahai and Ksitigarbha had not arrived behind him.
This is the last day, and Sheng Jiale guesses that they will come here during this time.
So he said to Jiang Tiansheng: "Mr. Jiang, there are a few friends coming over. It is estimated that it will be half a minute. Let's wait here."
"Okay, I have no problem." Jiang Tiansheng nodded happily.
After saying that, he and Sheng Jiale stood in front of the pier, chatting and looking at the scenery on the sea.
Not long after, Meng Dahai and Ksitigarbha arrived by boat.
Seeing Sheng Jiale and Jiang Tiansheng standing at the pier, Meng Dahai laughed loudly, walked up to Sheng Jiale with open arms, and gave Sheng Jiale a bear hug.
"Mr. Sheng, I haven't seen you for a long time. I didn't expect that I even married the daughter of a casino tycoon." Meng Dahai said.
"You are in good spirits. You can tell from one glance that business has been very good recently."
Sheng Jiale looked at Meng Dahai and said.
"It's all thanks to Mr. Tuosheng. If Qiangsheng Group hadn't provided so many high-end seafood, whether my restaurant could exist now is another matter."
After Sheng Jiale and Meng Dahai finished their polite exchanges, Ksitigarbha and a group of younger brothers walked up to Sheng Jiale.
Jizo stretched out his metal prosthetic limb and said, "Mr. Sheng."
"Ksitigarbha, you are here."
Sheng Jiale shook hands with him, and then after seeing that everyone was gathered, he greeted everyone and left Haojiang Pier.
In the afternoon.
Before the official start of the engagement ceremony, most of the guests at the venue were already present, and many service staff were rushing back and forth, working hard to arrange the scene and make final adjustments.
Sheng Jiale, Huo Jingliang and Ding Ye came together and arrived in front of He Xin.
Sheng Jiale planned to introduce these two people to He Xin and let them get to know each other. After all, these three people were all tycoon-level figures.
Ding Ye is a big shot in Hong Kong's police force, Huo Jingliang is a stock tycoon, and He Xin is a casino tycoon in Haojiang. They are all people of the same level. It is also a very good thing to make friends with each other. This is just a small network of connections. Built up.
"Master Ding, Mr. Huo, let me introduce to you. This is the casino tycoon in Haojiang, Mr. He."
Sheng Jiale introduced.
"Hello, Mr. He."
Master Ding and Huo Jingliang extended their hands with smiles on their faces.
"Hello."
He Xin shook hands with the two.
At this time, Sheng Jiale introduced again: "Uncle He, this is Mr. Huo, he is a stock tycoon in Hong Kong Island."
"I have heard of Mr. Huo's name for a long time. Anyone who plays stocks knows that there is such a big shot in Hong Kong Island." He Xin said with a smile.
"Everywhere, it's just a false name."
Huo Jingliang waved his hand.
"This is the Commissioner of the Hong Kong Police Force, Mr. Ding." Sheng Jiale said.
"Hello, Mr. Ding."
He Xin nodded.
Given his status, he naturally didn't really call Master Ding the "grandfather" in his seniority.
But the word "Master Ding" is actually equivalent to Master Ding's external name and has no meaning of seniority.
After the introduction, the four people held champagne in their hands and chatted.
The four of them were all tycoon-level figures, and they had common topics when they got along, and the conversation soon became lively.
The engagement ceremony was officially held at three o'clock in the afternoon.
At this time, He Xin invited a famous Feng Shui master from Haojiang to choose an auspicious day that was most suitable for the wedding.
The venue for the engagement ceremony was not chosen indoors, but held on a green lawn.
Although it is outdoors, it is still well-organized and has all the necessary things.
At this time, on the stage that was built, the host stood here, holding a microphone in his hand, and was speaking the opening remarks.
"A good time and auspicious day will bring you a marriage, and heaven and earth will provide you with a good match."
After the host finished speaking, the guests in the audience burst into applause.
There were many seats under the stage at this time, and those sitting in the main seats were of course He Tian'er's father He Xin, and Sheng Jiale's elder Dasha.
Followed by big guys like Huo Jingliang and Ding Ye.
Mr. He and Situ Yulian from Haojiang were both present, and other well-known figures from Haojiang also came to attend the engagement ceremony.
Whether they were high-ranking committee members or police bosses, all the big shots in Haojiang's black and white circles were present.
Because of He Xin's status in Haojiang and his daughter's engagement, they had to attend this occasion no matter what.
"I would like to invite two newcomers to the stage." the host said.
Immediately, Sheng Jiale and He Tianer walked to the ceremony stage.
Since it was just an engagement ceremony, He Tianer did not wear a wedding dress, but wore a plain white dress, while Sheng Jiale still wore a crisp suit.
After the two walked up, they stood face to face.
Their eyes met, Sheng Jiale had a smile on his face, and he saw deep love and joy in He Tian'er's eyes.
"The two newlyweds are a perfect match for their talents and looks. They are a match made in heaven."
The host looked at Sheng Jiale and He Tian'er and said sincerely.
In previous weddings, this kind of speech was his polite words, but now it is sincere. He Tian'er is a rare beauty, and Sheng Jiale can be said to be a beautiful woman with a charm that is systematically blessed, making her temperament extremely outstanding.
Even hosts who have hosted countless weddings and met countless couples are a little surprised by the appearance and temperament of both parties.
The host paused and continued: "Now we invite two newlyweds to exchange engagement rings."
Originally, there were many processes in the engagement ceremony, such as asking when the two parties met, when they fell in love, when they decided to be together, and some small games.
However, Sheng Jiale felt that none of those things were necessary, especially if it was done under the auspices of others.
Not only would there be no atmosphere, but it would also be a little embarrassing, so I cut off all these irrelevant things.
Only the most important content of the engagement ceremony is retained, which is to confirm the relationship between the two and exchange engagement rings under the witness of relatives and friends.
Sheng Jiale took out the gift box from his pocket and opened it. Inside was a dazzling diamond ring. The weight was not large, but it was distinguished by its superb cutting technology and special shape.
At his status, there is no need to use the carat of the diamond ring to fill the scene. The ring is just a representation of the heart.
In front of Sheng Jiale, He Tian'er also took out a diamond ring.
The rings of the two have the same shape, and you can tell at a glance that they were made together.
"Invite the couple to exchange engagement rings."
the host said.
Sheng Jiale first took He Tian'er's little hand and put the ring on the ring finger of his left hand.
It is said that the ring finger is the finger that connects to the heart. Wearing a ring here has the meaning of keeping your lover in your heart.
He Tian'er also held Sheng Jiale's hand and put the ring on it.
From the moment you put on the ring, it means that the relationship between two people has changed from that of a man and a woman to that of a fiancée and her fiancé.
He Tian'er's face turned red with excitement, and she stared at Sheng Jiale with a flash of autumn water in her beautiful eyes.
She was extremely excited. After being with Sheng Jiale for so long, she finally came to the day she wanted most.
In contrast, Sheng Jiale controlled his emotions better. He smiled and looked at He Tian'er quietly, and could feel He Tian'er's love for him.
"Next, please invite the two newlyweds to serve tea to their parents."
The host said.
The service staff immediately brought over two trays with several cups of tea on each.
He Tian'er took the tray first, walked up to Dasha, bowed respectfully and said, "Dasha, please have some tea."
"Good good."
With a smile on his face, Dasha nodded repeatedly, took the teacup, and drank all the tea in one gulp.
Sheng Jiale also carried a tray and walked to He Xin and his wife to offer tea.
After serving tea, they were recognized by the elders of both parties, and the main part of the engagement ceremony was over.
However, after the ceremony, many guests did not disperse directly, and a buffet banquet was held next.
It just so happened that these people were the upper echelons of Haojiang, and there were also many bigwigs from Hong Kong Island coming over. This banquet could provide them with a place for communication, so everyone stayed and continued to participate.
At the banquet, He Xin took Situ Yulian and Mr. He to Sheng Jiale.
He Xin patted Sheng Jiale on the shoulder and said, "Let me introduce you, this is Mr. He, and this is Situ Yulian.
The two of them and I have been old friends for many years. Together they are in charge of the casino business here in Haojiang. Each of them also has a large casino in his hands. "
He Xin introduced with a smile that now Sheng Jiale has become his son-in-law, and he will use this opportunity to help Sheng Jiale expand his contacts.
Situ Yulian and Mr. He's status in Haojiang is not inferior to his. In addition, both parties are old friends, so Sheng Jiale must have a good relationship with these two people.
This will be of great help to Shengjiale's career development.
Hearing this, Sheng Jiale looked serious and said, "Ms. Situ, Mr. He, hello.
I have heard about the names of the two of them for a long time, and they are even more famous when we meet today. "
In fact, Sheng Jiale had met these two people as early as when they were competing for the gambling license. However, at that time, Sheng Jiale was not He Xin's son-in-law, and his strength was not as good as it is now, so he had no interaction with the two.
"Sure enough, a hero comes from a young age." Mr. He said to Sheng Jiale with a big smile, admiration in his eyes.
Situ Yulian also said with a smile: "This girl Tian'er has found a good husband, but Tian'er has a weak temper. You must treat her well in the future."
"Most definitely."
Sheng Jiale agreed immediately.
"Now Sheng Jiale is my son-in-law, he is one of my own. You two must take good care of him from now on."
He Xin said to the two people beside him.
"That's of course. As elders, we must cultivate young heroes like Sheng Jiale."
Neither Situ Yulian nor Mr. He had any objections. They both nodded, as if they already regarded Sheng Jiale as one of their own.
"Ms. Situ, Mr. He, I'd like to toast you."
Sheng Jiale said, picked up the champagne in his hand, and drank a glass with each of them.
Then He Jin took Situ Yulian and Mr. He away to meet other guests.
After all, many of the people who came to the scene today were heavyweights, and even with their status, they had to be well entertained.
Sheng Jiale drank another glass of champagne, then found Ding Ye, and the two of them sat on their seats.
"Master Ding, come on, let's have a drink."
Sheng Jiale exchanged two glasses of red wine and said to Master Ding.
Master Ding laughed and said, "Okay, I'm in a good mood today, so I'll have a drink with you."
As he spoke, he clinked glasses with Sheng Jiale and drank the red wine in the glass.
Master Ding patted Sheng Jiale on the shoulder with a very pleased expression on his face and said, "Sheng Jiale, you are much better than your father. Keep working hard in the future.
Your father-in-law, Mr. He, is not an ordinary figure in Haojiang. With his help, your career will reach a higher level. "
Lord Ding warned.
He saw that Sheng Jiale and He Tian'er were engaged, and after he knew about Sheng Jiale's life events, he became concerned about Sheng Jiale's career issues.
"Master Ding said that I will never slack off." Sheng Jiale nodded.
Lord Ding was a respectable elder to him, and these words of advice warmed his heart.
After all, Master Ding has taken great care of him for such a long time and has not asked for anything in return. Sheng Jiale will remember this in his heart.
"I'm old and will retire soon. You have to work harder and try to do something big before I retire, so that I can still be of help." Ding Ye said.
Sensing Master Ding's care for him, Sheng Jiale nodded solemnly, "I will not let down your expectations, Master Ding."
"Hahaha, that's good. In fact, with your current achievements, your parents will definitely be happy.
But after all, you are still very young, and you still have the opportunity to fight again, but don't be satisfied at this moment. "
Master Ding said worriedly, fearing that Sheng Jiale was too young and would stop moving forward.
"Don't worry, Lord Ding, my goal is big." Sheng Jiale said with a smile.
"That's fine, that's fine."
Master Ding smiled. He was not afraid of Sheng Jiale's ambition. Anyway, Sheng Jiale had such a wide network of contacts now.
With Huo Jingliang and his care on Hong Kong Island, and his father-in-law He Xin here in Haojiang, even if Sheng Jiale makes any mistakes, there won't be too serious consequences, so he can fight boldly with confidence.
After Sheng Jiale and Ding Ye finished talking, He Xin also finished greeting the other guests and came over with He Tian'er.
Arriving in front of Sheng Jiale, He Xin grabbed He Tian'er's hand, placed it on Sheng Jiale's palm, pressed their palms tightly, and said:
"Sheng Jiale, I will leave my daughter to you from now on, you must treat her well.
Although Tian'er can be a bit willful sometimes, after getting along with her for so long, I think you also know that she actually has a weak personality. If you let me know that you bully him in the future, I will definitely not be able to forgive you. "
"Uncle He, don't worry. It's too late for me to love Tian'er. How could I bully her?" Sheng Jiale held He Tian'er's little hand and said sincerely.
Hearing this, He Tian'er suddenly looked shy and blushed on his cheeks.
He Xin laughed loudly, patted Sheng Jiale on the shoulder and said, "With your words, I feel relieved. By the way, there is one more thing."
He Xin suddenly remembered something and waved to A Gao, who was greeting the guests nearby, "A Gao, come here."
"What's the matter, boss?"
Ah Gao immediately apologized to the guests, trotted to He Xin and said respectfully.
"Have you finished the share transfer document I asked you to prepare?" He Xin asked.
A Gao immediately nodded and said: "It has been done a long time ago."
"Okay, bring it over immediately."
"Yes." (End of chapter)
