'Boss Zhang, how are you preparing your goods?' ''It's good, it's good, you're almost ready.'' This church that Li Chen is very disdainful of, and today it is full of friends. Because no matter how much Li Chen dislikes it, it has no exotic characteristics at all, after all, this is still a church, and it has taken on social responsibilities.

I didn't expect Lao Su to find so many people. ', said a blessed Hu merchant, who, like Suleiman, also took a Chinese name, surnamed Zhang.

Isn't it? Another middle-aged man said, "With our friendship, it is inconvenient for him to turn around for a while, and it is not impossible to hold him hostage, so why take it out and sell it." Still looking for so many people. 'He looks so distressed that people who don't know him think he is good with Suleiman?'

However, Hu Shang on the other side knew very well that this quality was a business, but he was just sad that Suleiman did not raise good things to his store, and he could happily lower the price when the time came.

In fact, Suleiman had already tried to take some treasures at the bottom of the box to be qualified, but unfortunately, everyone wanted to slaughter him, and they had already discussed in advance, what was the approximate price, Suleiman ran a lot of houses, but he couldn't get a high price. Suleiman was unwilling, and the result of the delay was that he waited for Li Chen to help him.

'Uncle, why are they lighting a fire in the house?' Ah Xiang grabbed Li Chen's hand and asked, "Didn't you always tell us to be careful of the candle?" Why do these Hu people like to light a fire in the house? Aren't you afraid of burning down the house? Ah Xiang actually wanted to ask just now, but before the words came out, Li Chen stopped her with his eyes and asked her to talk later.

Today, Li Chen brought a few small people to see the market and see the auction form proposed by Li Chen. Just after entering the main hall, I saw that the fire in the main hall of this ancestral hall was burning very strongly, even if it was already autumn and about to enter winter, it still made people feel hot. Then Ah Xiang wanted to ask questions.

Because this is people's religious custom, people's temples do not worship anything, the main thing is to worship fire, so it is also called Zoroastrianism. Li Chen explained, "I didn't let you ask just now, for fear that others would hear it and think that you disrespected their religion, and this kind of thing is difficult to justify." If you can avoid it, you can avoid it. ’

You must remember that religion is the most incomprehensible thing in this world, and no matter where you go, you must first find out what the local religion is taboo and what is taboo. Li Chen took the opportunity to finish educating the children, so he handed the children over to Suleimande's housekeeper and let the housekeeper command them in a unified manner.

There were a lot of people coming today, and Suleiman's family suddenly didn't have enough servants, so Li Chen asked the children to help. The housekeeper was quite hesitant.

'Li Jun, these children, each knows how to be polite and has extraordinary manners, will this be too bad for them? Under Li Chen's influence day and night, some children are quite disciplined in their actions, and because they have also read some books, their temperament is quite good, and they dare not compare with the children of those families who have been cultivated since childhood, but compared to those ordinary people, it is the difference between heaven and earth.

It is to let them see more people, and the butler will call them as high servants, and they will not be so squeamish. ', spoiling people? How to spoil people, I don't expect them to be able to be named on the gold list in the future, and then become big officials. In the future, I hope that they can do more practical things, how can they not contact people, especially this group of rich businessmen.

'This Suleiman, it seems, has made a lot of effort,' said a merchant who was welcomed in, and when he saw the situation in the hall, he muttered to himself.

The auction was full of people, and it was rare to have this opportunity to meet peers and big businessmen, and everyone was seizing the opportunity to connect and make friends.

The auction has not officially started yet, it is the eve of now, and the main thing is to wait for everyone to gather. In an age where the sun or water droplets are still relied upon to keep time, it is difficult to achieve a unified time, not to mention that some people may deliberately arrive late to show their status.

However, since Li Chen made a move, this eve is not simple, the day before, under the command of Li Chen, the housekeeper of the Su family set up a curtain in the open space in the courtyard, originally Li Chen also wanted to build a shed, but thinking of the autumn now, the sun is not big, so I didn't build, only preparation, in case of rain, it can be used.

Then the tables are lined up in three rows against the curtain on the left and right, and all kinds of exquisite food are placed on the tables. There are juices, hot drinks, and a variety of snacks.

That's right, Li Chen made the form look like a Western-style buffet, but maybe it should be called Tang style now? Now the Westerners are still drinking blood. Regardless of Western style or Tang style, Li Chen did not make this appearance in order to grab the title of the inventor of the buffet, mainly because it was convenient for socializing.

To make such a new way of banquet convenient for those merchants to talk, Li Chen's bold idea was supported by Suleiman, and it was only under the strong opposition of Su's steward that it was implemented.

Seeing that the master agreed, the housekeeper of the Su family agreed without much opposition, maybe he was also optimistic about this banquet method in his heart, but out of a steady mentality, he didn't want to seek innovation and change, and stability was good. And how effective is the new banquet method, these Tang merchants and wealthy businessmen will not accept it, and they will know it from Steward Su's eyebrows stretched out and bent up.

Li Chen spent a lot of time here, in addition to directing the servants to set the table, there were many other small plans. Otherwise, it's just a new-style banquet, it's good to open your mouth, but is it difficult to set a table?

Li Chen put some thought into the food, and the juice didn't make any tricks, mainly hot drinks. In this era, heating is more troublesome, and in the past, in order to keep warm, it was necessary to constantly change the hot water. It is heated by water insulation and heat to keep warm. Of course, you can also use the stove directly, but it depends on the time, doesn't it look better to install 13 when heating with water?

But what about today? Li Chen saw a small group of people watching strongly. Some of them looked at the stove with curiosity, they had never seen it before. A servant stood by, and from time to time opened the damper under the stove to check the condition of the charcoals.

Yes, Li Chen took the opportunity to show the coal stove. In this kind of weather, if you don't serve hot drinks, you are afraid that you will be talked. It's not that cold, but if you don't provide it, you're stingy. Thinking that since he wanted to supply heat, Li Chen simply took the opportunity to show it. Now seeing that some businessmen have been attracted to their eyes, Li Chen smiled.

And you see, that man is Abdullah. When Li Chen looked at the venue, a gust of fragrant wind hit behind him, Li Chen was a little intoxicated, and the beauty was different.

Ninety beautiful women, they don't need perfume or fragrance, and they don't need cosmetic pretensions. Everything is a natural beauty.

Just getting closer, you don't need to look at it to know that this is a beauty. (To be continued.) )
