Chapter 214: The grand occasion of the court
Soon after, the rebellious Huncháo was extinguished, and most of the people involved in the secret meeting were brutally killed. On July 15 of the following year, the disciples of these people, Qin Wei, and their subordinates once again held the Menglan Bon Festival, which once again ignited a vigorous fire, and they were more cautious and careful than before, and formulated a strict plan and detailed division of work, and were prepared for long-term battles.
After twenty or thirty years, these people have developed their own efforts through hard work, some have become officials, some have become warlords, some have returned from abroad, and have a large number of followers, and some have devoted themselves to developing a business country, and they are rich enough to rival the country, but their efforts are still unsuccessful. As they grew old, they realized that they should pass on the fire, so they told their disciples, cronies, and nephews that they should shoulder the heavy responsibility of organizing the Mon Lan Bon Festival and expelling the Tatars.
In the first half of the last century, this secret meeting became more and more powerful, with the development of society, the demise of the Qing Dynasty, the exchange of personnel, the inevitable birth and sickness, the exchange of power, the rise and decline of the industry, the Menglan Bon Association gradually moved away from the original intention of the association, some developed into a large family, and some monopolized a certain unemployed. At that time, the business tycoons among the 12 groups included underworld giants and powerful figures, and actually controlled more than 80% of Zhonghai City's economy, industry, media, politics and the underworld.
After two generations, some were passed on to disciples, and some were passed on to subordinates, and in the era of fierce turmoil, no one could guarantee the safety of life, and some only worked in the position for a few years before suffering a catastrophe and being replaced by someone who did not know what to do. Those people have broken the rules again, changed personnel, and have nothing to do with the original, everything has risen and fallen, some were merged by another group, and a new group was raised, and the one that grew became the boss at that time, and the declining one lost the right to speak, but it has remained at the number of twelve.
They are no longer the people who shed their blood in the past, and the Menglan Bon Festival has even been interrupted several times, and there has been a violent conflict between them for competing interests, even to the point that it is difficult to clean up, and only then does someone remember that there was once a meeting, so it was reconvened.
The Menglan Bon Festival has truly become a secret meeting jointly convened by all parties in the city to maintain the balance of Zhonghai City, divide interests, resources, and formulate rules.
After decades of development and growth, many forces gradually joined in, but the core has changed forever, and it is still the twelve top groups, and the name of the Bon has been retained.
On their periphery, there are more than 100 forces, including economic groups, underworld gangs, entertainment figures, chambers of commerce and industry, etc., any little-known little person, as long as he shows his face at the Menglan Bon Festival, his identity will increase, and he will become an upper-class person from now on, and everyone wants to chase after him.
The core group in charge of the leadership will also purge rule-breaking efforts and invite new potential forces.
Due to the rapid development of society in the past few years, more than 20 new peripheral forces participated in this conference.
Each of the 12 core groups has a steward-like figure to form a "management committee". Responsible for the front and back of the meeting, personnel organization, all logistics work, and also supervise each other.
The chairman of the "management committee" was actually a butler, and he was an Englishman named Anderson Green, who was sixty-four years old this year. He came from a family of butlers in the southern English city of Antwerp, which had been around for more than 300 years.
Every child will be nurtured by the jīng heart from the age of seven, teaching them etiquette, management, finances, society, food, life, etc., and by the age of eighteen, they will be introduced to various noble families as apprentices. The apprenticeship lasted for twelve years, and he lived and learned to coordinate the work, manage the servants, the cleaning of the household, and the procurement of household goods, and were not qualified to be true stewards until they were thirty years old, so that they were faithful, experienced, and skilled, and any noble family with such a steward would have reduced his troubles by more than seventy percent.
The old-school English court paid more attention to etiquette, details and vanity, and strictly regulated the professional concept and scope of responsibilities of the housekeeper in accordance with the court etiquette, which became the industry standard, and the English housekeeper also became a classic of housekeeping service. The greatest role of the steward is to plan and supervise the affairs of the house, and the most effective is when large gatherings are held.
Mr. Green has been the steward of the Cao family for thirty-four years, and before that he was his father, who was his grandfather before. In other words, Anderson Green's team has been the full-time housekeeper of the Cao family for more than 100 years.
He has successfully planned three editions of the Bon Fair and has a very prominent reputation.
Pulped-washed snow-white shirt, black sè or white sè vest, black sè bow tie, black sè tuxedo, crisp black sè trousers and shiny black sè leather shoes, naked hair and always straight body, Mr. Green commanded all the manpower and material resources that could be mobilized on the ninety-ninth floor, everything was in order and not chaotic at all.
"The flower pot in the corner of the wall is replaced by another one, the sè color is very incongruous, has the dust of the wall lamp been wiped clean? Damn, how can there be a place on this floor that is only waxed twice? I can see it at a glance, and immediately find someone and rub it repeatedly with a non-fleece cloth. Mr. Green walked into a suite, immediately saw what the problem was, and immediately ordered his men to solve the problem.
The chairs in the small conference room were replaced with high-backed chairs that had just been flown in from the north, and professional engineers had to install small loudspeakers behind each chair, in order to prevent the engineers from being bribed by people with bad intentions, and at the same time, Mr. Green would personally test whether the anti-rì2 device was normal and whether there was ***.
Some people carried detectors on wooden floors, ceilings, and wooden wall skirts to scan for any suspicious metal objects, and the intrigue at the Bon Festival was so serious that most of the members did not believe anyone else, and even used ultrasonic devices.
The electricity supply is provided by the Bandung Building, which has six large diesel generators on the 90th floor, as well as special guards to ensure its normal operation. The ventilation ducts of each room are separated by steel fences, and each window has been analyzed by mathematicians to ensure that the line of sight of the opposite street and building is not spied on. The life experience, hobbies, and interaction experience of each service staff in the past ten years have been carefully investigated, so that suspicious people have nothing to hide.
With such a tight work, it will be the most luxurious and safe event in all of Asia.
......
In the living room of room 502 of Aoshui Apartment, after the three of them were initially hostile, confrontational, and tentative, the atmosphere began to become active, Murong Lanluo was still sitting very reserved, and Liao Xuebing was still that lifeless, typical pretending to be B, but with Murong Lan in the field, everything became different.
"Miss Bingyu, why do you care so much about my father?
Murong Bingyu hurriedly said: "How can it be, in fact, we are just good friends, you also saw it at the charity party that day, Mr. Liao helped me, so I am listening to it now to repay him." ”
"It's so simple, you fell in love at first sight, and since then you have been in love with each other desperately. ”
Murong Bingyu had no choice but to emphasize again and again, "Really, don't guess, how can you think of that aspect when you see an ordinary man and woman alone, by the way, Liao Xuebing, if you really go to the set, I have a little request." ”
"Say, I'm such a reasonable person, I will never shirk what I can do. In front of Xiao Lanluo, of course Lao Liao had to show that he had a big belly, and he was embarrassed to embarrass her.
"You have a big temper and tend to get too emotional, but after all, the set is a place for people to get along with, uh, I want you to look at my face, if anyone has bad intentions, you should try to bear with it. ”
Lao Liao agreed: "No problem, even if you pour feces and urine on my head, you will never say anything." ”
"Don't be so exaggerated, what they say, you just have to treat it as nonsense. ”
Only then did Murong Bingyu understand that Murong Bingyu invited Liao Xuebing to work part-time on the set, thinking that you wanted to go to the set without even figuring out so many things about school, it was obvious that Murong Bingyu was good-looking and was fascinated by her.
At more than eight o'clock in the evening, Lao Liao received a call from Ye Xiaobai, his voice sounded extremely excited and joyful, as if he was a child who finally became famous at a young age after all kinds of efforts, and won the affirmation and appreciation from idols.
"Boss, I'm about to step into the Tower in the Clouds, I think it's weird, right? I'm going to have a safety test later, and I can't carry communication equipment for the time being, so I called in advance to report the good news,**! The boss of the Black Dragon Hall, Tao Delin, is also here, how can he dare to be on an equal footing with our bikers?" Ye Xiaobai began to scold when he saw the competitor halfway through the lie, but his tone quickly changed: "Brother Tao, who am I, have you recovered from your injuries and been discharged from the hospital?" It's always unavoidable, I originally wanted to buy a few catties of sweet potatoes to visit you, but then I was too busy to get out, and I asked Brother Tao to forgive me. ”
In front of Murong Lanluo and Da Ming in the living room, Lao Liao didn't talk about this topic openly, walked to the window and looked at the dark sky and said: "Boy, don't be used as a gun, everything will be fine, are there any other acquaintances? ”
