Chapter 5 Poor Relatives
The rest of the Yan Alliance in Zhongzhou was arranged in a "hotel". The rooms are all ready, and there are quite a few rooms, which are still newly sorted out. Although there were a lot of guests this time, it didn't seem crowded if two people were assigned a room. After Aoyama greeted the guests one by one, he warmly brought them to the hotel and asked them to rest in the afternoon, and there was a banquet waiting for them in the evening. After arranging everyone's rooms, Aoyama left, and the guests were naturally greeted by a waiter.
The guests were stunned as soon as they entered the room. The beautiful furnishings, soft beds, separate toilets and showers, and bronze utensils everywhere irritate their eyes deeply. Many things they had never heard of opened their eyes, and at the same time, they finally knew the background of their remote relatives: that is, wealth! It's just too rich!
This kind of affluence is not only reflected in those luxurious utensils, but also in those utensils that make people exceptionally convenient and enjoyable. For example, when you untie the rope, you can get cold and hot water flowing out of the animal skin pipe, a bell for the waiter to be pulled on the rope, a towel and bathrobe that can be easily reached in the bathroom, a hook hanger for hanging clothes, a variety of snacks on the table, and a garbage can for throwing garbage.
These guests from afar had originally despised some of their fellow Banpo dolphins, but when they stepped on the soft animal skin carpet in the room, they were immediately impressed by the Banpo dolphins. It was the first time they had seen someone so rich that they were paving the ground with animal skins. When they were at a loss and did not know how to use the various utensils in the room, the handsome young waitress generously explained to them the uses of various items, and they found that the life they thought they had lived well was far worse than that of their relatives in these remote areas. If nothing else, those pajamas and civilian clothes in the closet alone are much better than the clothes on them. I'm afraid that even the most powerful big wizards and big chiefs in Zhongzhou have never enjoyed these new and convenient things!
After figuring out all the utensils in the room, everyone chose to take a comfortable bath in the big wooden barrel first, and then smeared the whole body with soap made of honey locusts, and after rinsing, they felt indescribably refreshing, and finally lay down on the soft big bed, and the fatigue of the rush was immediately swept away.
While everyone else was happily enjoying everything in the hotel, Jiang Li's face was ugly, and he found that he was underestimating the half-slope dolphin too much.
The grandson of the big-mouthed old black, when he was in the Yan Alliance, desperately pretended to be poor and pitiful, while distributing valuable gold and glazed wares everywhere, while crying to people about how much his tribe had suffered and suffered because he had no totem, how much he had suffered, how much he had suffered, and how he was despised, but he didn't even have the confidence to talk back, so that everyone unanimously thought that Banpo Dolphin was living a very miserable life because he did not have the protection of his ancestors, and he urgently needed the people of the alliance to come to help.
Moreover, many people in the team, including Jiang Li, do think so, and it is precisely because of this that the alliance will send a hundred elite warriors to help Banpo Dolphin tide over the difficulties, and by the way, see if they can seek the secret of gold and glass.
The moment Jiang Li stepped into the Banpo dolphin, he felt that something was wrong, and it was not until this moment that he was sure that he had been deceived! Banpo dolphin is not as miserable as the big-mouthed old black said! Maybe because there is no totem, they will feel that they have no support, but it will never go to the extent that they are despised everywhere when they say it with a big mouth! He Jiang Li is not blind, not to mention the room full of exquisite gold utensils and luxurious utensils, just those little girls who are called waiters, but they are only slaves, and their faces are full of polite but confident smiles, which are not seen in ordinary tribes.
After taking a hot bath, Jiang Li lay on the soft big bed, thinking carefully about whether he had made a mistake this trip? Is the alliance's decision to agree to the return of Banpo Dolphin too hasty? On the surface, giving Banpo Dolphin the Holy Flame is no loss for the alliance at all, and it is a big bargain for nothing, but in the long run, it is really hard to say whether it is a blessing or a curse to pull such a rich and powerful tribe into the alliance.
Jiang Li thought about it until the waiter came to invite him to the banquet, but he didn't come up with one, two, three, so he could only decide to take a look first.
Because there were too many people to attend the dinner, there was no room for it, so a huge shed was temporarily built in front of the altar of the sacred fire.
For this dinner, several chefs in the cafeteria were very busy. There are 100 people from Zhongzhou Ancestral Land, and each of these people has to be seated, and one must not be left out in the cold. And there can't be only guests at the banquet, the host also has to be accompanied, so there are dozens of more clansmen, which is more than a hundred.
The banquet of more than 100 people, it is not troublesome to make a flowing water banquet, but this banquet is of great significance, first of all, to welcome back the holy fire, return to the totem This great joyful event, it must be celebrated, and secondly, the people from the ancestral land of Zhongzhou are also distant relatives, after all, everyone is from the same bloodline. Entertaining distant relatives who have not seen each other for many years, naturally we can't be sloppy, let alone lose our share, and this banquet must be held according to the highest specifications.
The highest-level banquet is the kind of one person and one person, and each dish is served by the guests alone. Those who like it stay, and those who don't like it with, can be described as the high-end atmosphere and grade. According to the standard of at least 12 dishes per person, more than 100 people, that is more than 1,000 dishes! If you only rely on those few cooks, even if you make them vomit blood, you don't want to make it, you can only temporarily send people to help.
So those who chose vegetables, slaughtered fish and chickens, boiled water and hot oil, served dishes and passed vegetables, and all kinds of people were used! It's also thanks to Banpo Dolphin's big business now, otherwise, this banquet really can't be held. Of course, with so many guests, don't think about one waiter per person, you can only pick dozens of eloquent and good people to scatter among the guests, so that these people can accompany the guests, serve, and explain as one, and be sure to greet each guest.
Jiang Li's face has been ugly since he learned the details of this banquet. Although he was in Zhongzhou, he had heard of the luxurious banquet in the wasteland. Those caravans who traveled far away once boasted about this kind of banquet in Zhongzhou, and all kinds of rules at the banquet, mouth-watering wine and food, and beautiful songs and dances have always been praised and talked about, and many people even imitated the dishes of the legendary banquet. But what he didn't expect was that this famous rich banquet was actually from Banpo Dolphin!
"Yes, only Banpo dolphin has such a handiwork." Jiang Li smiled bitterly in his heart.
After Jiang Li arrived, the waiter ushered him to his seat. Jiang Li's seat is the third seat under the fat witch, the chief and second seats are Shaolei and Tang Ge respectively, and the third and fourth seats are him Jiang Li and Qingshan. Under such an arrangement, Jiang Li and Shaolei sat side by side, facing Tang Ge and Qingshan. Although the big-mouthed old black has merit, the seat has to be lined up below these people.
This arrangement is where the rules lie. What status, what position to sit, although there are preferential treatment as guests, but still must not exceed the rules.
From the chief to the tenth seat, only those with status and status are eligible to sit it, and the treatment is naturally different from other seats. Although everyone eats and drinks the same thing, the tableware used for the first ten tables is more exquisite. In the case of wine glasses, the first ten seats are all made of their own distinctive and beautifully carved rhino horn cups, and the other seats are unified bronze jue, and each of the first ten seats is equipped with a separate maid, and the other five seats share a maid.
This is a real privilege, a manifestation of identity. But don't say it, these primitive people still eat this set. Even Banpo Dolphin, which advertises that everyone is equal, no one thinks there is anything wrong with this arrangement.
As soon as Jiang Li sat down, a maid took his coat, which was neatly arranged and hung on the hanger behind the seat. Jiang Li cherishes this Hanfu produced by Banpo Dolphin very much, but even he himself has never packed this dress so ironed. And when the waiter spread a napkin made of snow-white fine silk on his lap, Rao is well-informed Jiang Li also felt a little heartache. Looking at the whole set of red glazed tableware in front of him, Jiang Li secretly pondered, just this set of tableware can be easily exchanged for more than a dozen middle-aged laborers when they get it to Zhongzhou, if those clansmen in Zhongzhou know that Banpo dolphins are such a style, will they still treat them as poor relatives who urgently need the support of the alliance?
After Jiang Li sat down, he looked around. At this time, there were already a lot of people who came to the banquet, and more than a hundred seats were almost full, and Fat Wu and Shaolei had not yet arrived, but Tang Ge, the young witch of Banpo Dolphin, was already seated, and was pulling his hair with a distressed face, as if he was thinking about something difficult to solve.
This young witch named Tang Ge rarely mentions it with a big mouth, and occasionally talks about it, and his contemptuous tone also reveals the meaning that this guy's status in the tribe is insignificant, but Jiang Li can see from his attitude of doing his own thing and ignoring the people around him that this young man's status in the tribe is by no means ordinary. Moreover, he also felt a sense of superiority in this teenager from the bones.
Qing Shan, who was beside Tang Ge, saw Jiang Li looking over, nodded politely, and Jiang Li smiled back. This Jiang Li, who is called Qingshan, has also never heard of it. It stands to reason that Banpo Dolphin is in charge, because it should be the Tiger Master, the Rat Master, the Fifth Uncle, the Sixth Uncle, and the Seventh Uncle, but now, none of the famous people who left the alliance can be seen, presumably in these years, one by one, they have passed away. But this one named Qingshan, who can take the position of chief from their descendants, must not be a simple person.
