Chapter 476: The Banquet

At this time, as soon as King Ft finished speaking, he sat up straight again, and looked down with a solemn and dignified smile, and then the master of ceremonies also slowly raised his body, and then took a step forward, and announced loudly: "The country will start the arrangement of the dinner banquet immediately, before that, please let the two princes of the great merchant country salute, and everyone applauds." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Then at this time, everyone burst into fierce applause, and then King Furt looked at Lin Nan and Xia Yi with a smile, and then nodded to everyone, the meaning of his eyes was to tell everyone to say a few words casually, Lin Nan knew that this was a passing matter, but he still had to say a few words, anyway, it was almost time to eat, Lin Nan was so hungry now, Lin Nan now saw Xuan'er covering her belly, and her pretty face also looked resentful, her pink lips were curled high, as if others were not giving her food, Lin Nan couldn't help but feel a little funny when she saw her like that。

Because Xia Yi is sitting in front of Lin Nan, the king of the family wants everyone to pay tribute, according to Lisa's words, the order of their speeches is divided according to the position, and the first one to speak first, so Xia Yi wants to be honored first, but Xia Yi is still a little introverted, a little shy, and he has never spoken publicly on such an occasion, so now he is nervous, looking at Lin Nan as if he is asking for help, as if he is about to cry.

Seeing this, Lin Nan was really made to cry and laugh by him, so Lin Nan gently patted him on the shoulder and whispered to him: "Brother Yi, don't be nervous, just talk as usual, just say a few words casually, don't be restrained." It may be that Lin Nan's comfort and encouragement gave Xia Yi motivation, so he nodded when he heard the sound, and then stood up, Lin Nan found that although he had the courage to stand up, his throat was still swallowing saliva because of nervousness, Lin Nan was busy beside him and whispered to him: "Don't be nervous, just talk about it." Then Xia Yi finally mustered up the courage, took a big breath, exhaled hard, and then looked at the other people, and found that those people were all looking at him, and suddenly his eyes flashed with timidity, and then Lin Nan changed the way to cheer him up and said: "Don't care about those people, you talk about yours, they listen to them, they have nothing to do with each other, you don't care about others, just talk about your own." ”

After Xia Yi listened, he glanced down at Lin Nan, then looked at the corner of his clothes, and then finally mustered up the courage, raised his head, and said loudly in the loudest voice in his life, this voice Lin Nan dared to guarantee that even the host of ceremonies sitting at the door heard it, only to hear Xia Yi say loudly: "I...... I thank you all. Then after speaking, he brushed the eyes full of question marks in everyone's eyes and sat down again.

Lin Nan really obeyed him, what do you thank them, thank you everyone without saying a word, Lin Nan was completely speechless to him, but he couldn't be cold at this time, so while he sat down, everyone was still wondering, Lin Nan hurriedly stood up, it seems that Xia Yi's gap is going to be added by Lin Nan, Lin Nan looked at King Furt and other nobles who were as confused as everyone, first bowed deeply and politely to everyone, and then looked at King Furt affectionately and movingly, and the lines that Lin Nan wanted to say began to circle in his mind.

This time Lin Nan's speech represents the quality of the entire Great Shang Dynasty, if Lin Nan also has a foreign appearance, it would be a joke, just now Xia Yi came to an inexplicable speech, now Lin Nan can no longer lose this face, so when Lin Nan looked at the beautiful face of King Furt, the lines were already given in his mind, so Lin Nan lightly throated, and then prepared to read the lines in his heart in Lin Nan's heartiest voice.

Lin Nan cleared his throat, looked directly at King Ft, and then smiled and said loudly in English: "Actually, it is our honor to be able to go to your country, of course, it is also a fortunate thing for everyone to be able to send the people of your country back to their country safely, because there are many risks on the ship, and we are very happy to arrive safely, and King Ft made a special trip to hold this dinner for us this time, we are sincerely grateful, and I sincerely thank King Ft for his hospitality on behalf of our Great Shang Dynasty." Lin Nan's words are emotionally invested, sycophant, and bothersome, but it is greeted with thunderous applause, it seems that foreigners also like to play polite, Lin Nan slowly sat down in everyone's applause, when sitting Lin Nan glanced meaningfully at King Fit, Lin Nan found that she was also looking at Lin Nan, her eyes were full of praise, it seems that she has a good impression of Lin Nan, and her eyes are tender like water, and she looks at Lin Nan's heart surging, this king is really a superb beauty, and he has not yet married, probably because of the lord of a country, Lin Nan heard Lisa say that their kings are all women, and most of them are married after the age of forty, Because this will not affect state affairs, now this husband is only twenty-four years old, this age is really at the late age of wanting to get married, Lin Nan thinks she must also want to get married, but it is a pity that the lord of a country can only forbear, it seems that it is not easy for a woman to be a king.

At this time, Lin Nan and Xia Yi finished speaking, and then the master of ceremonies shouted: "The honorific words of the two princes are really full of friendship of the whole country, and let us deeply feel the friendliness of the Great Shang Dynasty. As soon as the master of ceremonies finished speaking, there was another round of applause, but the applause was obviously much weaker, it seems that the difference between their identities and Lin Nan is big, and the treatment is also a lot worse, Lin Nan thinks that most of the people who don't applaud are nobles from other towns, because only the nobles from other cities don't know them, Lin Nan thinks that the local nobles in Black Feather City must be very welcome, this Lin Nan heard Lisa say, Tom's interpersonal relationship in the palace is quite good, basically all the local nobles are friends with him regardless of the official rank, and Jerry, because he is younger, has only joined the political affairs for a short time, so his connections are not so wide, but because he usually treats people very friendly and humble, and followed Thomas to work as a scribe in the Sage Tower, and he also came into contact with a lot of people, although his aristocratic friends were not as many as his uncle Thomas, but he also had a very good reputation in the court, so Lin Nan thought that the applause they received should be the applause of their friends.

At this time, the two foreigners who had been with Lin Nan for nearly a year also stood up straight when they heard the words, because they were locals and local nobles, so they naturally knew how to discuss the court etiquette, so they got up and first made a gentleman's salute to King Furt, and then made a flat belly salute in the direction of the nobles, and then you started to say that Lin Nan said honorifics, but their honorifics also belong to the kind of polite words, anyway, they first praised the big businessmen for treating them well, and treated them like relatives, and then exaggerated that the business land is rich in resources and talents is a big country, and finally thank the people of Frank for holding such a grand dinner to welcome them, they were deeply moved, and then after they finished speaking, Jerry's parents also got up and saluted, and raised a glass to Lin Nan and toasted Lin Nan with a glass of their local wine, which is also very strange in their country, because Lin Nan found out as soon as he came in, there was a small bottle of home-brewed grape wine on this long table every other distance, and there were also wine glasses, but there were no dishes on the table, which made Lin Nan very depressed, Lin Nan is very, certainly, quite hungry now, they don't serve food, only wine, it's really weird.

And there is no fruit on the table except for wine, which is completely different from the customs of the Great Shang Dynasty, you must know that at the banquet of the Great Shang, there is good wine and good food, there are all kinds of fruits, and everyone can eat them, but there is only wine and nothing else on their table, which really makes Lin Nan depressed.

So after Lin Nan and Jerry's parents had a drink, while the master of ceremonies whispered to King Furt again, Lin Nan asked Lisa next to him again, this time he was really puzzled and asked: "Why has the dinner party started, and I haven't seen fruit dishes come up yet, is your banquet usually held like this?" Why, are His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince hungry, hehe, in fact, you should eat something to fill your stomach this afternoon, although our country has no special products, but the grape wine we brew ourselves is extraordinarily sweet, and the wine on the table at this dinner is not different from the pure wine in the restaurant in the outer city, which is brewed by the best brewer in the palace himself, and we are generally lucky enough to drink it at the banquet, is it very pure and sweet. ”

After speaking, she pointed to Jerry on the opposite side, and one of the black-bearded middle-aged foreigners on the table who counted far back on the table said, " He is the best winemaker in our country, Peter, look at his official rank is a sixth-level official position, because our country's wine is very sweet, but there are not many excellent winemakers, so after tens of thousands of winemaker candidates, Peter was selected to make him the first winemaker in the palace and even the country, the grape wine of this dinner is that he has treasured it in the wine cellar for five years, dry snake red, this kind of wine we can't drink in general banquets, this is the largest banquet in the country, King Furt is very happy, so he ordered Peter to take out our best wine to entertain Your Highness, first serve wine This is one of our etiquette, is to show respect, rest assured, the dishes will come up in a while. After speaking, she smiled lightly, then shook the wine in the wine glass in her hand, and gently sipped the crimson wine in the wine glass with her soft lips with an intoxicated look, and then shook her head unsatisfied, and praised: "It's so fragrant." ”

It's a pity that Lin Nan is not very interested in wine, he used to have so many fine wines in his own palace in the palace, Lin Nan didn't like to drink, but later he met the Demon Queen, because he likes to drink spirits, and drank with him twice, so now he is only a little interested in spirits, like sometimes he drinks a little when he is fine, but he doesn't drink a lot, even so, but Lin Nan still has some research on wine, in fact, Lin Nan has always thought that wine is a drink that can ease the mood rather than wine, it is an elegant drinking product, because no one in Dashang can make wine now, so the palace Ouchi usually can't drink this kind of grape wine, Now that I have drunk the best dried snake red in their country, I do feel that the taste is much purer and more pure than the dry red that has been soaked with water and blood in the modern plane, and the wine is good wine, Lin Nan also drank two more glasses, but there is no appetizer, which is not good.

In fact, this wine is really sweet and will not have too heavy bitterness, and this wine is still pure natural artificial brewing, speaking of which the person's craftsmanship is really extraordinary, it feels much purer than the grape wine in France, the romantic capital of the modern plane, Lin Nan has drunk authentic French precious wine, and Lin Nan has also seen its brewing methods and ingredients, and analyzed the taste of several of its best wines, and I feel that the super expensive wine made in 82 years is much worse than this Peter's wine, and this dry snake red is still stored for five years, which shows that this technology is really the most important。

It is precisely because this wine is delicious, so Lin Nan found that Xuan'er and Xia Yi have drunk a lot, Xuan'er is even more powerful, the amount of alcohol is actually so amazing, drink cup after cup, it seems that she is hungry, want to use wine as food to fill her stomach, so Lin Nan hurriedly whispered to her in Chinese: "Xuan'er, don't drink too much, this wine is very strong, wait for the dish to come up, don't get drunk, then it's embarrassing." But as soon as Lin Nan finished speaking, Xuan'er smiled and said: "Childe, don't worry, my alcohol is very powerful, I used to drink a jar of daughter red in one go, I don't want to get drunk with this wine, but this wine is really delicious, I haven't drunk it before, is this really made of grapes?" She seemed to be asking a hundred thousand whys, Lin Nan could only nod lightly and smiled at her: "Then master the proportions, don't drink too much." ”

She heard Bi Linnan say this, of course nodded obediently, in fact, Xuan'er's alcohol Lin Nan probably also knew a little, just the last few times Xuan'er celebrated on the boat drank a lot of wine, those wines were the imperial wine that Lin Nanquan brought out from the palace, quite pure, but Lin Nan thought about it for a while, because the soldiers were all hot-blooded men, saying that the kind of wine that was soft and soft was too inconsistent with their masculine temperament, so Lin Nan specially brought a few large boxes of the kind of liquor that the Demon Emperor loved to drink, but I didn't expect that Lin Nan remembered that Xuan'er drank several bottles alone, his face was not red and his heart was not beating, there was nothing to do, Lin Nan was not good, If Lin Nan didn't use internal force to force out the alcohol, Lin Nan thought that Lin Nan would be drunk and dazed when he drank half a bottle, so sometimes when Lin Nan wanted to drink it, he just drank a few sips and passed the stimulation of the fire piercing his heart.

It seems that Xuan'er may not really be drunk, although the wine has great stamina, but this kind of wine is not high, and Xuan'er is now a very measured person, Lin Nan thought she would master it, so Lin Nan let her go.
