Chapter 621 A gift from Ali, return home

Zhang Yan opened the small box and revealed the contents inside.

"Is this a comb? There are also some small accessories." Zhang Yan took a look and was a little disappointed.

"This is not an ordinary comb! These small accessories are not simple either." Ban Hongchun said with a smile as he knew the goods well.

"Oh? What else is there to say about these combs?"

"This comb is made of rhinoceros horn. Do you think it is precious?

As for these small ornaments, they are made of ivory and are also very precious." Ban Hongchun explained.

"With combs made of rhino horns and trinkets made of ivory, Prime Minister Ali is much more generous than President Sukarno." Zhang Yan said with a smile.

He was quite satisfied with Ali's gift. Although it was valuable, it was not particularly precious in Indonesia.

It doesn't involve religious beliefs or anything like that, but it is very suitable as a gift.

This is just like when our country gives out national gifts, they are all relatively precious handicrafts that do not involve religious beliefs or politics.

For example, handicrafts such as ivory carving, cloisonné, tapestry, mahogany silver-inlaid lacquerware, etc.

The most important thing is that the combs and trinkets given by Ali can be taken back as gifts to family and friends.

Ban Hongchun was very straightforward and asked people to come in and register the gifts given by Indonesian Prime Minister Ali.

Then return the box to Zhang Yan.

"Let's go! It's almost time, everyone is waiting to see Dean Zhang off!" Ban Hongchun stood up and said.

After a lot of fun, the farewell banquet was over, and Zhang Yan and others packed up and left.

"Thank you to all the comrades at the Embassy in Indonesia for your hospitality. When I return to Beijing in the future, I will be the host and treat you all to drinks." Zhang Yan said to Ban Hongchun and others who were seeing them off, clasping his fists.

"That's easy to say! When you return to China, you will definitely come to harass Dean Zhang!" Everyone laughed and waved off.

Although it only lasted nine days, Zhang Yan left a deep impression on everyone.

This is a very kind comrade and a very self-disciplined comrade.

If it were another person who was assassinated as soon as he arrived in Indonesia and couldn't even leave the house, he would definitely complain, and eventually he would even complain.

However, Zhang Yan didn't complain at all, he was very calm, as if there was no such thing.

I go to the Presidential Palace every day and when I come back, I read the newspaper in my room and never come out to cause trouble to anyone.

Everyone he met had a gentle smile on his face.

Even Ban Hongchun looked at Zhang Yan's retreating figure and couldn't help but sigh, this boy will definitely do something extraordinary in the future.

Accompanying Zhang Yan were still Director Chen and other comrades from the Foreign Affairs Department.

Among them, there are naturally people from there hiding among them.

After getting on the ship, the captain was still the same captain who sent them, but the ship was changed to another one.

Seeing Zhang Yan boarding the ship, the captain did not come forward to speak, but nodded kindly.

Seeing this, Zhang Yan did not come forward to say hello, but just followed Director Chen into the cabin.

"Dean Zhang, Ambassador Ben prepared some gifts for you. I was afraid that you wouldn't accept them, so I didn't tell you that the gifts had been put in your room.

Of course, Director Zhao and the others also have a copy, and they are all in your room." Director Chen then said.

"Ambassador Ban is so polite! Director Chen thanked Ambassador Ban for me!" Zhang Yan thanked him politely.

When he walked into his room, he saw a suitcase on the floor of the room.

Zhang Yan stepped forward and opened it. There were some Indonesian specialties inside.

Among them were bird's nests, sea cucumbers, abalones, coffee beans, badi cloth and many other bits and pieces that Zhang Yan entrusted logistics to purchase.

When Zhang Yan saw the coffee beans, he thought of Indonesia's three treasures, bird's nest, cat poop coffee, and Tongkat Ali.

This coffee bean, no need to ask, is naturally cat poop coffee.

As for Tongkat Ali, it is a plant that has a very good kidney-tonifying function. Tongkat Ali was quite famous in later generations.

It has the same effect as Angora bark, and has a very good aphrodisiac effect.

In fact, this is all hyped up by businesses.

Tongkat Ali and Angora bark do have certain effects, but they are irritating drugs.

Although it has stimulating and delaying effects, taking it regularly will put a huge burden on the heart.

Moreover, it can also cause kidney essence loss.

After accepting Ban Hongchun's kindness, Zhang Yan lay on the bed and closed his eyes to rest.

At this time, the passenger ship had already left the harbor.

And Zhang Yan felt somewhat seasick.

Therefore, after the last experience, the seasickness reaction was not strong this time.

You just need to close your eyes and rest your mind, and just take care of yourself for a while, and you will be relieved.

As for Zhao Shengli and the other four, they are all in their own rooms to relieve their seasickness.

Unknowingly, Zhang Yan fell asleep.

When I was woken up by the knock on the door, the sun outside was almost sinking into the sea.

"Dean Zhang, I'm sorry to disturb your rest. Why don't you finish your dinner first and then rest?"

"Don't bother me, but I would like to thank Director Chen for waking me up, otherwise I would miss the beautiful scenery on the sea." Zhang Yan said with a smile.

Walk out of the cabin with Director Chen and come to the deck.

At this time, it had sailed out of the offshore and entered the deep sea.

In the vast sea, you can still see distant islands and seabirds flying around the passenger ship from time to time.

"Haha! The scenery on this sea, morning and night, is the most beautiful." Zhang Yan held on to the railing of the deck and said with a smile.

"Yes! This beautiful sunset can only be seen on the sea." Director Chen said with a smile.

"How about we just enjoy dinner on this deck while enjoying the beautiful scenery?" Zhang Yan said with a smile.

"Haha! I think it works!

The ship has just been replenished with supplies in Jakarta, including a lot of beer and seafood." Director Chen said with a smile.

Director Chen arranged for people to move the table to the deck, and the chef also brought the prepared food.

On the sea, this is not a yacht, so naturally it will not be as luxurious as in a hotel.

On this passenger ship, the emphasis is on benefits.

There was a big plate full of crabs, a big plate of prawns, and braised squid in soy sauce, which was also a big plate full.

There are also various kinds of sea fish, either steamed or braised in sauce.

The main thing is a benefit.

A group of people sat on the deck, enjoying the sea breeze, eating seafood, drinking beer, and couldn't help but feel happy.

Of course, this also has something to do with everyone going home soon.

Everyone was in high spirits, drinking and chatting until very late.

Everyone goes back to their rooms to rest.

Three days later, the passenger ship docked safely at the pier in Xiangjiang.

On the return trip, there was no pirate attack. Except for a relatively large wave in the middle, which gave everyone a false alarm, the rest went smoothly.
Chapter completed!
