He drove the Bugatti Veyron and followed Fan Tianlei's military vehicle into a hotel.
After entering the hotel, Qi Xiaobai knew about this place when he saw the lady boss, Zhang Lina, waiting in the lobby.
"Old Fan, they are…?" Zhang Lina walked over and greeted Fan Tianlei, then looked at Qi Xiaobai and Ye Cunxin who were following behind.
"Oh, these are two children I met today. I thought they were quite interesting, so I invited them over for a meal.”Fan Tianlei didn't say that he wanted to recruit Qi Xiaobai.
"Is that so?"
Zhang Lina expressed her doubts.
She had seen Qi Xiaobai and Ye Cunxin come down from the Bugatti Veyron just now. It was obvious that these two people came from powerful families. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to afford such a luxury car that cost tens of millions.
She didn't believe that these two people could get along with Colonel Fan Tianlei.
However, they had been married for many years. Although they were now ex-wives, she knew Fan Tianlei very well.
Since Fan Tianlei had already said so, she didn't ask any more questions. She personally led the three of them into a large private room and then went out to arrange the dishes.
The food and wine were served. Because Qi Xiao Bai had to drive, and Fan Tian Lei also drove here himself, the two of them did not drink. Ye Cunxin wanted to drink a few mouthfuls, but was stopped by Qi Xiao Bai.
The few of them drank their drinks, ate their food, and chatted.
After chatting for more than ten minutes, Fan Tianlei changed the topic and brought up the matter of joining the army.
"Xiao Bai, look, being a soldier is such a sacred profession, isn't it? You admire soldiers, so now that you have the chance to become one of us, shouldn't you seize this opportunity?”
"Everyone says that you will regret being a soldier for two years, but you will regret not being a soldier for the rest of your life. You are a good young man, and you have a lot of skills. Isn't it a waste that you can't show off in the army?”
“.……”
Fan Xian's bluffing skills were activated. He persuaded the people with emotion and reason. He tried his best to persuade them. He was just short of vomiting blood.
However, after talking for more than ten minutes, Qi Xiaobai still picked up the vegetables without changing his expression and took a sip of freshly squeezed orange juice from time to time.
"No, Xiao Bai, your Uncle Fan has already said so much. What do you mean? Can't you just say something?”By directly mentioning his seniority to "Uncle Fan", Fan Tianlei was obviously trying to pull some connections.
"Yes, Uncle Fan makes sense."
"And then…nothing?" Fan Tianlei was dumbfounded. Did I say so much just to make you comment that it made sense?
"Uncle Fan, let's do it this way. Let me explain it to you.”Qi Xiaobai swallowed a mouthful of food and took another sip of orange juice.
Seeing that Qi Xiao Bai had finally gotten to the point, Fan Tian Lei also put on an attentive look.
"As for me, my grades are very good. I'm famous in Huaqing. I really hope to be able to wear a mighty and handsome military uniform. However, in a year, two years at most, I can graduate from university ahead of time. At that time, I'll be of the right age to join the army. I'll be an outstanding graduate of Huaqing University.”
Fan Tianlei thought for a moment and recalled the requirements for recruiting college students. He nodded and agreed with Qi Xiaobai.
"Just say that I just entered. Maybe I'm a civilian? But he was still a lieutenant. Moreover, with my skills, do you think I can pass the special forces selection in the capital?”
"Yes!" Fan Tianlei had no doubt about this.
"That's why, Uncle Fan, I've listened to you and joined the army. I'm just a big soldier. How long will it take for me to become a second lieutenant? Besides, I'll wait another two years. After graduation, I'll be able to enter the special forces as well, and I'll be a first lieutenant. What do you think, is it better for me to be a soldier in the southeast military region or the capital military region?”
" Uh…" Fan Tianlei was taken aback. He had almost mentioned the military in the capital, but fortunately, he reacted in time and took back his words.
" But, Xiao Bai, you have to know that in the army, we don't care about our positions. Once we enter the army, we're all on the same side…"
"But the salary and allowance are different.”
"Do you still care about the salary and allowance?”
"Of course I care. Why wouldn't I care?" Qi Xiao Bai straightened his back and looked at Fan Tian Lei with an expression of 'I care a lot.'
"Hahaha, Old Fan, you're usually such a smart person. Why can't you tell what Xiao Bai meant?”Zhang Lina had been sitting at the table accompanying them. She hadn't interrupted them before, but now that the two of them were almost done talking, and Fan Tianlei hadn't gotten to the point, she reminded him.
Although she couldn't tell what was so special about Qi Xiaobai, who was valued so much by her ex-husband, she trusted her ex-husband's taste.
"Ah?" Fan Tianlei turned to look at his ex-wife.
"You're such a smart person.”Zhang Lina pointed at Fan Tianlei and said,""What Xiao Bai means is that he hopes to receive the treatment of an officer, and it's not like starting from the grassroots. To him, it's a waste of time.”
"But, but you can't just join the special forces brigade. We don't have such a precedent.”
Fan Tianlei was telling the truth. The Wolf Fang Special Combat Brigade had just been upgraded to a brigade-level unit two years ago and was directly under the command of the Southeast Military Command.
Whether it was in the past or now, there was no precedent of directly recruiting soldiers from the people.
What they needed was a Soldier King, not a new recruit. The soldiers they recruited to participate in the training were all soldiers who were selected from various units and sent to the training camp.
Moreover, participating in the training did not mean that he would be able to enter the special forces brigade. They had to go through cruel training, tests, and so on. Only those who passed could become members of the special forces brigade.
Therefore, Qi Xiaobai wanted to enter Wolf Fang directly. In his opinion, it was impossible. Moreover, he wanted to become an officer directly? Wasn't this a joke? Military ranks could be given casually?
"That's why I said that Uncle Fan, it's better for me to go to the capital's military district. After all, I'm familiar with that place. Moreover, the professor in charge of national defense students in our department has also talked to me many times. Sigh, I'm sorry. I originally thought that the Southeast Military Region would be closer to home.”
"No, wait!" Seeing Qi Xiao Bai stand up and prepare to leave, Fan Tian Lei also stood up anxiously.
"Uncle Fan, let's not waste each other's time.”
"Three days, give me three days. I have to ask for instructions!”Fan Tianlei compromised.
He was not a person who would easily compromise. It was mainly because of Qi Xiaobai's words," The professor who manages the national defense students has talked to me many times."
If that was really the case, he felt that it was not impossible to make an exception for Qi Xiaobai.
He felt that it would be a great pity to throw such a talent to the capital military.
