Chapter 1153: The Palace Night Banquet
Lengthened Lincoln slowly parked in the parking lot outside the thousand-year-old palace gate in the capital of India and Burma, and a small car followed behind also stopped, and an interpreter named Xiaozhang, who was today's attendant, walked forward quickly, and took the initiative to open the door of Lincoln's car with a smile. "Words * love * first * hair [cute sister paper reading book essential website. 】
Xiao Qiang stepped out of the car, Meng Bingling stepped on high heels and came to him, gently straightened his clothes for him, and said with concern, "Husband, you must be careful, you are unfamiliar with life here, and safety is the most important." ”
"Well, Bingling, you go back first, don't worry, I won't mess around." Xiao Qiang hugged her, smiled and waved his hand, "I see you get in the car." ”
Meng Bing Lingqiao blushed, nodded with a sweet smile, and turned around to get Miaoman's figure into the car.
Watching Lincoln's car slowly drive away, Xiao Qiang pulled his black blazer, looked up and turned around, and took the translation chapter to enjoy the ancient and mysterious Indo-Burmese palace.
The area of the Indo-Burmese Imperial Palace does not seem to be large, far less than the imperial palace in the capital of Huaxia, but the victory lies in the different styles, the top of the palace is gilded, and it looks like it is simply resplendent and beautiful. At the same time, the pointed corners and the square architectural style give people a faint majesty, symbolizing the supremacy of imperial power.
Walking inward along the gate, Xiao Qiang handed the invitation to the doorman, and smoothly passed through the front door and entered the large square in the center of the palace. It is said to be a large square, but it is actually not that big, but it must be no problem to accommodate dozens or hundreds of people. At this time, there were many waiting guests standing in the square, most of them were in pairs, there were dark-skinned and short, Indo-Burmese people, blonde and blue-eyed white-skinned tall Caucasians, and even black-skinned blacks, it was like a hodgepodge of races from many different countries.
Xiao Qiang was originally a Chinese, although his skin was whiter and taller than that of the Indo-Burmese people, but on the whole he still belonged to the same type, and he should not be noticed and not the focus of attention. But he had no choice but to enter the central square alone, he did stand out without a female companion, not to mention that people had a female companion, but he brought a male translator, the combination of two men was indeed as weird as it was on such an occasion, and it was no wonder that many people had their eyes on this guy for a while.
Xiao Qiang, who suddenly became the focus, patted his forehead and tried to keep smiling in an embarrassed way, trying to blend in with the crowd as much as possible. He really regretted it now, he knew that it would be better to let Meng Bingling come with him, and save the embarrassment of his female companion.
"Hello, this gentleman, is it an arms dealer?" Not far away, a foreign fat man held his female companion, and a beautiful Caucasian woman walked up to Xiao Qiang, smiled and stretched out her hand in Y and said, "Introduce yourself, I am James Hawke, the representative of Lyman Company from Country Y, and I am very happy to meet you." ”
Translator Xiaozhang immediately translated the words to Xiao Qiang, he didn't understand why this guy named James would take the initiative to chat with him, but he still shook hands with him very politely, and introduced himself in Chinese, "My name is Xiao Qiang, I am from Huaxia Country, and I am a representative of Yuanqiang Arms Company." ”
After the translator had spoken to James, the smile on the guy's face quickly faded, and after a lukewarm conversation, he found an excuse to leave. Xiao Qiang didn't understand what was going on, and other arms dealers took the initiative to approach and talk to him, but like that James, most of them were out of interest after chatting a few words, and they were consciously flashing. After making trouble for a long time, Xiao Qiang reacted, it turned out that this had been done for a long time, and it was these arms dealers who were touching his details? As for why they showed a cold look after the introduction, it was not because Yuanqiang Military Industry Company was not famous, they felt that there was no threat and looked down on it!
Xiao Qiang laughed coldly, it was actually nothing to be despised by these arms dealers, after all, he was just a representative of a leather bag company, and it was normal to be not famous. What does it matter if these arms dealers look down on him? As long as the batch of arms smuggled into the country can be sent to Meng Kang under the pretext of the arms exhibition, that is the most important thing.
Xiao Qiang, who was self-adjusting, took the interpreter to find a free place to drink champagne and close his eyes to recuperate, he enjoyed this kind of environment where no one disturbed him during the party. But the translator Xiaozhang next to him couldn't look at it, and couldn't help but say loudly, "Boss Xiao, what's so great about these guys, dogs look down on people, they don't want to see us, we don't want to see them!" ”
Xiao Qiang opened his eyes and glanced at the translator, smiled and did not speak. This translator is not his own person, so he is not willing to explain anything to him too much. Speaking of which, Meng Bingling also felt that he could only speak Huaxia and not Indo-Burmese and Y, so he found this full-time translator from Huaxia who knew three languages to be his microphone. It's good now, Xiao Qiang's side is very happy and idle, and this translation seems to be in vain.
Time passed little by little, the dinner party was about to start, and the people in this small square were almost gathered. Not long after, under the leadership of the palace guards, everyone began to walk up the steps of the square towards the main hall of the palace.
The Indo-Burmese palace is not big, the most luxurious and the most exquisite building is naturally the palace hall above the square, which is not only spacious, but also carefully carved everywhere, the translucent and smooth marble floor, six golden stone pillars are lined up on both sides, majestic and full of luxury, and it is indeed the word palace.
At this time, in the palace hall, two long rows of Western-style tables are arranged, filled with delicacies in the format, and rows of red wine glasses are poured with fine wine, as if waiting for the guests to taste.
"Hello everyone, friends from afar!" Just when everyone was attracted by the situation in front of them, a middle-aged man standing under the high throne suddenly spoke up, clapped his hands and smiled at everyone, and said in standard fluent Y language, "I am very happy that you guests can come to my Indo-Burmese Imperial Palace, the contemptible name is Dao Camel, you can call me Wu Dao Camel, I am honored to serve as the royal governor, and entertain all distinguished guests for Her Majesty the Empress, I hope you can feel the sincerity of my Indo-Burmese country, and help me a lot for the development of the Indo-Burmese ** team." Tonight, in the palace, Her Majesty will personally meet with all of you to thank you for coming! ”
After interpreting the words of the royal governor of Wu Daoluo to Xiao Qiang in a low voice, the translator Xiao Zhang added in a low voice, "Mr. Xiao, you may not be very familiar with India and Myanmar so you don't know about it, this Wu Daoluo is not an ordinary person, he is not only the royal governor, he is deeply trusted by the empress, but he is also the leader of the Indo-Burmese Liberal Party, the chairman of the House of Representatives, and is very close to the military liberals, which is equivalent to a real power official who eats both military and political circles." This India-Myanmar election is about to be held, and the future new prime minister has the highest voice, and it is estimated that he will not be far from ten. ”
Xiao Qiang didn't expect this middle-aged man to be so powerful, and he reacted when he heard Xiao Zhang say this, isn't this guy the future Prime Minister of India and Myanmar to put it bluntly? Prime Minister, that's the equivalent of the presidency of other countries, I'm obedient, then this guy is really a big man in India and Burma!
"Papapa......" When Wu Daoluo's words fell, deafening applause suddenly sounded in the palace, and it was obvious that for such a high-level reception from India and Burma, these arms dealers were unexpected, and they also felt that they had a lot of face. The Empress is the symbol of the highest representative of India and Burma, and she can come to meet in person, so you can imagine how much importance India and Myanmar attach to this arms exhibition. Of course, it is a good thing to be valued, this empress has come forward, will there be less arms purchased by the Indo-Burmese army? Arms dealers are undoubtedly full of expectations for the arms deal during this trip to India and Burma.
