Chapter 322: Celebration Banquet 2
Large pieces of fish are fried to a golden brown, the snow-white crab soup exudes a rich aroma, and the red wine in the glass is a charming color. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Wow, this is comparable to a high-end Western restaurant."
Dick brought the plate from the dining window, and Mary stared at the food on it, exclaiming in surprise.
The two quickly got off the chopsticks and stayed in country C for more than a year, and they had long been accustomed to using chopsticks instead of knives and forks.
"It tastes great, hey, I'm afraid I won't be able to eat it in the future."
Mary took a piece of fish and put it in her mouth, sighing.
"How so? This is alienated fish meat, and there is a lot of it in the sea. ”
Dick tasted the crab soup, and he couldn't help but say, "The alienated crab meat is so delicious and full of power, the effect of the demonized crab meat must be better?" ”
"Then why did you refuse someone else's invitation?" Mary hung her head, her curved eyelashes blinking, she knew the lust in Tie Yuan's gaze.
"Because I will always get it by my own ability." Dick took Mary's palm and noticed a tremor on it.
He said softly: "The Knights stipulate that those involved in the operation are eligible for the distribution of loot, and I will become a real knight.
Dick is making a promise to Mary, and Zheng Hao is also making a promise to people.
"Lingling, Haicheng is not under our control at present, there may be conflicts with others at any time, I can't take you to tonight's banquet, Haicheng will be owned by you in the future, and you can hold banquets every day."
"Nuno and I are about to suffocate to death, you are busy every day, you don't go shopping with us, and you don't let you go out to play."
Fang Zhiling's red lips pursed, and she reached out and patted Nuo Nuo's head next to her, "Just know how to eat, you are about to become a pig." ”
"You're a pig, and you sleep every day until the sun shines on your butt."
Nuno was struggling with a plate of crab roe, her mouth kept talking, muttering about Fang Chiling's shortness.
"Soon, I promise, you'll be able to shop as much as you like in a while."
If Zheng Hao wants to dominate Haicheng, he will definitely move other people's cheese, he is not afraid of any open guns and hidden arrows, but Fang Zhiling is an ordinary person and cannot withstand a trace of damage.
Fang Chiling and Nuo Nuo have been staying in the villa for the past few days, and she is almost bored.
Hearing that Zheng Hao was going to attend the celebration banquet held by the city defense army tonight, Fang Zhiling clamored to go.
Zheng Hao spent a long time to appease this little aunt and grandmother, as for Nuo Nuo, just throw her a pot of crab roe, full of snacks.
After the Blood Moon Mutation, every full moon night, human survivors have to go through a test of life and death.
In the midst of the beast tide against the moonlit night, if the survivor dies on the spot, the body will be burned the next day.
As for the wounded who are not alienated, they have to accept the arrangement of fate and wait in the torment of life and death.
When the sun falls, the wounded who survive will become aliens and participate in the celebration that follows, but instead they will be greeted by a bullet that pierces the skull.
Zheng Hao changed his clothes, Zhou Minrou cleaned up her makeup and spent more than half an hour, and when they arrived at the celebration banquet hall, the banquet was about to start.
All the celebration banquets were held by the city defense army, and the location was set up in the north city wall.
The wide walls can accommodate five large trucks in parallel, and a banquet rostrum is set up on top of it, where the heads of the four major powers are seated.
The plaza below the city walls is lined with flowing water seats, where countless service workers shuttle and serve meat, seafood and a variety of dishes.
Zheng Hao is also a member of the Alienated Trade Union, and Zhou Minrou sat down on the rostrum with his arm, attracting a lot of attention.
"It's Chinese food." Zheng Hao looked at the tableware on the table.
"Of course, the high-level government of Haicheng will be present, and Chinese food is more suitable for most people's tastes."
Zhou Minrou waved away the waiter behind her and personally cleaned up the dishes for Zheng Hao, who was as virtuous as a little daughter-in-law.
Although it is a Chinese meal, not everyone is seated in one seat, and each guest is presented with a separate mahogany table with male and female waiters next to it.
"Which one is Zhu Tao? Let me see what the number one powerhouse in Haicheng looks like. Zheng Hao looked around and asked Zhou Minrou.
There is a video of Zhu Tao spread on his personal terminal, but his face has always been blurred, and Zheng Hao has never seen the real person.
"Zhu Tao hasn't participated in a celebration banquet for a long time, and it is said that he hates electronic products extremely and rarely comes to Haicheng in person."
Zhou Minrou asked the waiter to put the two tables close together so that they could have a private chat.
"So dragged?"
The service staff pushed several floors of dining carts and began to serve food, Zheng Hao looked at the exquisite dishes, his index finger moved, and asked, "When can I start eating?" ”
"I'll have to wait a while, the top government officials will have a routine speech, and maybe you will be arranged." Zhou Minrou covered her small mouth and smiled.
Zheng Hao has great power, but sometimes acts like a boy next door, which makes Zhou Minrou feel very affectionate.
"Speak?"
Zheng Hao couldn't help but think of his speech at the Xingbang Resort Plaza, and felt that it was a very distant thing.
"According to the usual practice, everyone seated on the rostrum can speak, but except for the moderator, few people take the initiative to speak."
"Why is that?"
"Because of the Enhancer, a high-level warlock of the Monk Alliance last time drank too much and asked to speak.
As soon as he said a few polite words, he was smashed down by the plate thrown out by Qin Hanchi, and his eyes were as black as a panda. ”
"Qin Hanchi is so domineering?" Zheng Hao and Qin Hanchi have met a few times and think he is very talkative.
"The enhancer is temperamental, and delaying them to eat is not a trivial matter, unless it is someone who can suppress the enhancer."
Zhou Minrou's eyes fluttered, she bit Zheng Hao's ear and said, "Why don't you make a statement, see who dares to throw the plate at you?" ”
"You're afraid that the world won't be chaotic." Zheng Hao knows that the enhancer has an urgent need for energy, and eating a lot is also one of the ways for the enhancer to replenish energy.
Zheng Hao touched the hem of Zhou Minrou's skirt with his palm, and asked with a wicked smile: "Why don't you eat it on my lap, and I'll feed you." ”
"Don't! So many people are watching. ”
Zhou Minrou was startled, and quickly straightened up and sat down, no longer teasing Zheng Hao.
At this moment, the sound of the loudspeaker on the rostrum came out, and the slightly noisy venue fell silent.
Zheng Hao is also sitting upright, he preaches the knightly system, and pays great attention to the etiquette of formal occasions.
"Fellow citizens of Haicheng, it is a pleasure to meet you again, we have once again repelled the invasion of alien creatures and defended our last home."
In the center of the rostrum, a middle-aged man in a Zhongshan suit spoke with a microphone, he was of medium height, with a Chinese face, thick eyebrows and sideburns, and sharp eyes.
"As an ordinary person, I would like to thank all the strong men for fighting bloodily for the people of Haicheng, with your existence, Haicheng will have a tomorrow.
Secondly, I would like to thank the hard-working people of Haicheng for providing logistical and combat readiness guarantees, so that we all have enough food and clothing.
Finally, please observe a three-minute silence for the war victims on the full moon night, whose contributions will always be remembered by future generations of Haicheng. ”
After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he put down the microphone and bowed his head in silence.
Driven by him, the entire venue fell silent.
Three minutes passed quickly, and the middle-aged man raised his head, the sadness in his eyes was swept away, and he roared in a slightly excited tone.
"Let's raise a glass and toast to survival!"
"Cheers!"
A huge wave of sound swept through the venue, and thousands of people participated in the celebration banquet in Beicheng Square.
They are all excellent performers in the defense of the full moon night, and many of them are new aliens.
"This is the celebration feast? And that's where it begins? Don't do singing and dancing? ”
The middle-aged man's words were excited, and the scene was solemn, but the painting style changed abruptly in an instant, which made Zheng Hao a little confused.
"What do you think? Haicheng seems to be impregnable, but it is a lonely city, full of dangers, and people need to have fun in time. ”
Zhou Minrou's white fingers were bent into an orchid shape, and she was holding a tall glass with red wine, and the corners of her mouth curled up in a beautiful arc.
"What's more, the celebration banquet is also a commendation banquet, and the ingredients on the table are not usually eaten."
After being reminded by Zhou Minrou, Zheng Hao lowered his head and paid attention to the dishes on the table, which were indeed extremely exquisite.
Before the mutation, Haicheng was the largest industrial city in country C and one of the largest international trade ports in the world.
Due to the developed industry and prosperous commerce, it has always been known as the "adventurer's paradise", and in private, more people call it the magic capital.
It is located in the Yangtze River Delta of country C and is a coastal city along the river with a warm climate and four distinct seasons.
Adjacent to the rivers and lakes are dense, rich in fish and shrimp throughout the year, the vegetable fields in the suburbs are continuous, the vegetables are evergreen at four o'clock, and the products are abundant.
Since the opening of Haicheng in 1843, with the development of industry and commerce, merchants from all over the world have gathered, and hotels and restaurants have come into being.
By the thirties and forties of the last century, there were 16 local restaurants in Beijing, Guangzhou, Suzhou, Yang, Xi, Ningbo, Hangzhou, Fujian, Sichuan, Hui, Chao, Hunan, and Shanghai.
At the same time, there are vegetarian dishes, halal dishes, all kinds of Western dishes, and Western desserts.
These dishes in Shanghai show their own talents, fierce competition, and learn from each other's strengths and weaknesses.
In the end, we learned from the strengths of others and developed Shanghainese cuisine with unique flavors.
In front of Zheng Hao, in addition to fresh and dried fruits and vegetables, there are also six dishes with good color, fragrance, shape and taste.
In order, it is fried shrimp, sweet and sour grape fish, foie gras sauce slices, Hujiang pork ribs, jasper beef tendon, and crab meat pork ribs.
Of course, since the ingredients are taken from alienated organisms, the amount of dishes is extraordinarily large.
At least three dishes come from demonized creatures, among which is the demonized crab meat provided by Zheng Hao, which can provide abundant energy and has a huge attraction to all strong people.
After the end of the Moonlit Night Defense, the city defenders will collect a certain share of the private loot from the defenders of each city, which can be exchanged for points and contributions.
"Try the jasper beef tendon, this is my trophy from last night."
Zhou Minrou sandwiched a large piece of thin beef tendon and put it into Zheng Hao's plate, her tone was a little sour.
Zheng Hao knew in his heart that the beauty was angry because she did not achieve proud results.
He picked up the beef tendon and ate it in one bite, exclaiming, "Yes, it's delicious, thanks to Rourou for providing the beef tendon." ”
"You only provided the tendons."
Zhou Minrou was coquettish, smiling like a flower.
Her alluring posture was seen by a warrior sitting next to her, and that person immediately had a tendency to become a goose.
Zheng Hao noticed that someone was watching his forbidden belly, and instantly glared back, so frightened that the warrior hurriedly lowered his head and ate the vegetables.
Just kidding, the video of Zheng Hao riding a demonized pangolin was uploaded on his personal terminal like crazy, who would dare to compete with him and be jealous.
