Chapter 433: Gift-giving
The ascetic people had such an easy-going attitude, which was beyond the expectations of Guangyao and other officials, and everyone was still a little nervous, but now, as the ascetics gradually entered the state, Leng Manyan and the others did not say anything to make things difficult, and the atmosphere on the table seemed quite relaxed and pleasant.
Just like this, there is talk and laughter, and the wine is over thirty years.
Everyone had eaten almost enough, and the city lord of Guangyao, who was sensible, turned around and picked up a glass of wine, and saluted the bitter Taoist, "Come, Lord Regent, Guangyao now represents the people of the entire Guangming City, toast the prince with a cup, and wish the prince a long life and good health!" ”
"You're welcome, just do it." The ascetic people are not pretentious, and they serve wine and clink glasses with glory.
As the two spoke, they raised their heads and drained the water and wine in their glasses.
After a glass, Guangyao filled himself with wine again, and said to Leng Manyan and Ji Yao, "Come, two princesses, this second glass of wine, Guangyao is also the Soshang Jia of Guangming City, I salute the two princesses with a glass, and I wish the two princesses eternal youth and eternal youth." ”
"The city lord is polite, just drink it, you don't have to be so polite." Leng Manyan smiled lightly and returned to Guangyao, and together with Ji Yao, he picked up the wine glass and drank with Guangyao.
After saluting Leng Manyan and Ji Yao, the two princesses! The remaining third cup of wine is naturally to respect Long Xiaofeng and Zhu Yu, and the four of Long Xiaofeng also gave Guangyao a lot of face, and did not disturb his face, and drank this glass of water and wine quietly with him, and the three glasses of wine went down to the stomach, and Guangyao, a shrewd city lord, understood it.
These people didn't come here to embarrass them this time, so wouldn't the next thing be easy? A chuckle broke out at the corner of his mouth, Guangyao put down the wine glass in his hand, clapped his hands outside the door, and as Guangyao's applause fell, the maids outside the hall walked in with silver trays.
This tray is covered with a piece of red cloth, obviously there must be a lot of treasures hidden under this red cloth, it is rare that the regent and the two princesses are here, this Guangyao and others naturally have to give their own hearts, this is the same everywhere! Gifts and gifts, many people are not to blame!
After more than ten maid rings entered the door together, standing in front of the round table in a row, Guangyao got up and walked to more than ten girl rings, and reached out to lift the red cloth on the more than ten silver trays they were holding in their hands. These more than 10 trays are full of beautiful treasures!
There are pearls, jade, agate, gold nuggets, silver, fine brass and so on, the most jaw-dropping thing for Leng Manyan is that in the tray in the hand of the girl ring standing at the back, there is a very strange and beautiful black stone, which makes Leng Manyan surprised.
Guangyao saw that the eyes of several people lit up, and thought that they were shocked by the gifts he had carefully arranged, Guangyao bowed to a few people, and said to a few people, "Prince, two princesses, and the emperor, this is a little bit of the heart of the adults in more than ten cities near our Guangming City, and please accept it with a smile, although this gift is a little thin, it can be regarded as the best treasure we can produce here, so please don't dislike it, so please don't dislike it." ”
"No, the old man is the good will of the city lord of Xie Guang, Yao'er, you all go and have a look! Accept whatever you like, don't let down the good intentions of the city lord and others! The bitter Taoist replied with a smile, and after speaking, he said to Ji Yao who was sitting beside him without looking back.
Ji Yaole stretched out her hand and pulled up Leng Manyan and Qin Rou, and the three women rushed forward like this, and picked them up among the more than ten rings, and the three big men such as Long Xiaofeng were disdainful of this, but said that Long Xiaofeng and Zhu Yu were the two emperors, what treasures had they never seen, and they still cared about this?
And Ji Long grew up in the Holy Domain since he was a child, and he was still a Holy Envoy of the Holy Land, and the treasures he had seen were much more magical than this, and he would never pay attention to them.
It's just that Leng Manyan said that the three of them women already love these pearls and jadeites or something, and the three women go up to choose, it is reasonable, there is nothing wrong with it, besides, Guangyao is such a big show, this face is still given to him, and then he needs his strong help, these face skills have to be done.
The three women chose for a while, Ji Yao and Qin Rou both chose the good-looking pearl necklace and jade agate ring, and each returned to their seats.
When she sat down, Guangyao and the others looked stupid.
Women! Who doesn't love a beautiful pearl jadeite? Only Leng Manyan is special, so many treasures are not chosen, but the black stone that is only ornamental is chosen, which really makes Guangyao and others a little confused.
After being stunned for a long time, Guangyao Fang turned his gaze to Leng Manyan and said to Leng Manyan, "Your Royal Highness Princess, don't you pick the others?" Just pick this black stone? ”
"Ahh What's wrong? Leng Manyan asked suspiciously.
"Your Royal Highness Princess, this black stone is really of no value except for being able to see it! I think the jade necklace over there is more suitable for Her Royal Highness the Princess, right? Guangyao replied with a smile.
Leng Manyan turned her head to look at it, and really saw that there was a very beautiful jade necklace in the tray over there, compared to the black stone she was holding in her hand, which would turn black when she touched her hand, it was really much more beautiful and beautiful, but Leng Manyan was disdainful of that necklace.
Putting the black stone in his hand on the table, Leng Manyan smiled and said to everyone, "Glorious City Lord, Lord Lord, you are really wrong, the value of this black stone is much bigger than those jade pearls or something, but you haven't found it." ”
"What? Your Royal Highness, what do you mean? "Guangyao and the others, all of them opened their mouths and screamed, and they were not clear by Leng Manyan!
They dig up these black stones, and they don't think anything else is worth appreciating them! Over the years, they have only relied on the production of these black strange stones, and these black strange stones have been eliminated to all parts of the Xiangtian Continent, as for the value of this black strange stone is greater than that of jade pearls or something, they have never heard of this kind of thing.
It's not just Guangyao and others who are dumbfounded.
Even the bitter Dao people and Long Xiaofeng and others were dumbfounded by Leng Manyan's sudden words, obviously, with Leng Manyan's words, she had already become the protagonist at this table at this time, and everyone stared at Leng Manyan with curious eyes.
Leng Manyan wanted to cry in his heart! At the first glance of this stone, she was sure that it was not the coal of the 21st century, which is called black gold. Oh my! How ignorant were these ancients? I don't even know about this coal?
Don't they understand that this black stone burns in winter, but it is more durable, warmer, and hotter than firewood? This is something that really needs to be used, so when it comes to winter, won't any country need it? Do you need to talk about this?
Thinking of these in his heart, Leng Manyan had a crying and laughing expression on his face, and said to Guangyao and them, "You are really, you have dug up the treasure, and you still treat it as a rotten stone, this kind of stone is called black gold, it is very valuable, and I tell you, this is the best stone for heating, you think about it, once it is winter, a few of these stones can be burned overnight, is it much more powerful than burning wood and charcoal?" ”
"What? Your Royal Highness, Princess, haven't you drunk too much! Are you saying that this black stone can still burn? We don't believe it. Guangyao looked at Leng Manyan like a fool, and almost shouted out such a sentence.
"Yes, yes, so do we." The more than a dozen officials also followed one by one, not believing what Leng Manyan said at all.
Leng Manyan almost collapsed, she didn't understand, isn't it something that children know that this coal can burn? Why didn't these ancients understand at all? Of course, Leng Manyan didn't know, even in the ancient 21st century, where she was before, she had never used coal as fuel, so it was understandable that coal could be burned here.
Sitting there depressed for a while, Leng Manyan simply raised his little hand and said to Guangyao, "You go and get me an iron basin." ”
"Huh? Iron...... Iron basin? Your Royal Highness, what are you doing here? Guangyao asked inexplicably.
"Nonsense, if you are told to take it, you will take it, why do you ask so much?" Leng Manyan raised his throat and glared at Guangyao, and blocked it.
Glory can't help it! I had to hang my head and ask someone to come in with a small iron basin and put it in front of Leng Manyan.
Leng Manyan didn't say a word, picked up the strange and good-looking black stone, picked up the battle spirit and slapped it, that is, the black stone was smashed into several pieces, and threw it into the iron basin and piled up, the coal needs to be piled together in small pieces to burn, this is the common sense that children know, Leng Manyan is now going to show this group of ancients that this coal can really burn.
No, just when Guangyao and the others were still wondering, Leng Manyan mobilized the fire energy around him, gathered a small fireball in his little hand, and threw it into the iron basin, only to rub it out, and the small fireball immediately burned violently in the iron basin.
Long Xiaofeng looked puzzled, but at this moment, with the burning of the small fireball, the black gravel in the iron basin really hissed, and there were blue flames, which ...... This is simply blinding their dog's eyes! The whole table was dumbfounded.
Even the maids standing in front of them looked at the scene in front of them blankly, and they were very surprised.
