Chapter 188: The Dinner Party
Hearing what Da Liang said, Miss Anne was stunned for a moment, and then she understood what this Young Master Liang meant.
Disguise had become a habit for Anne, as the Marquis of Whitehead had trained her since she was a child, "never let people see their truest self". Therefore, disguise has become a part of Anne's life, and at all times she has at least one piece of fake skin on her face, which not only changes her appearance, but also reminds herself.
Attending dinner tonight, Anne didn't know why she had removed all her disguises and came to the appointment with her truest appearance.
Now she's Anne Whitehead, not Director Anne of the Special Security Service.
A little change of mood brought her a huge surprise.
Anne knew that if she came as Director Anne, nothing would change if she walked through that door, and then it would be an ordinary dinner.
The butler Mike pulled out the chair for Anne, and when Anne sat down, he whispered, "It's a pleasure to serve you." Please don't have any constraints, if you need anything, you can call me at any time. ”
"Thanks, Mike."
Robin and Eric sat on Anne's left and right, and it was probably the highest banquet they had ever attended. Although they were all trained in this area as secret agents, they never imagined that one day they would sit at a table of less than ten square meters in a palace of several thousand square meters to eat.
There were hundreds of guards in full armor around, as well as dozens of maids and waiters to provide food and beverage services.
The wood-textured dining table feels like steel, covered with a white tablecloth with stripes of alchemy. If you look closely, you can see that none of the cutlery on the table touched the tabletop, and they all floated less than a centimeter from the tablecloth.
Then the cutlery slid against the table top in front of Annie, Robin, and Eric, and the cutlery moved to the most accessible place.
Mike, the butler, poured them red wine and said, "When the dinner begins, all the dishes will start moving, and they will stop while the guests are eating."
Today, my host is in a good mood and wishes the guests a happy meal. ”
At this time, after the maid put the last plate of egg cake rolls and vegetable floss on the table, Da Liang picked up his milk cup and said, "Thank you Miss Anne, Mr. Robin, and Mr. Eric for your visit, and thank you for helping me these days.
Let's raise a glass together.
To our friendship. ”
Everyone held their wine glasses and said in unison, "To our friendship!"
Anne drank the wine in her glass and couldn't help but marvel at the aroma of the wine: "This is probably the most delicious red wine I've ever drunk in my life." I've drunk almost every famous red wine in the world and can tell about their characteristics, their origins and their fermentation process.
But this red wine ...... I'm sure it's definitely not something from our time, it's certainly a lost craft of winemaking, from the ancient age of magic. ”
Anne started by talking about red wine, and it was very natural to start a conversation that brought the guest of honor closer together. The host always likes to listen to the guests praise the food, especially the wine...... It can better reflect the owner's taste.
Da Liang is also very greedy for this red wine, but his current body can't drink it.
"Miss Anne is very discerning. The name of this red wine is 'Elven Rhyme', and it was the court wine of an elven king of our time. From the selection of grape varieties, planting environment, temperature, sun exposure, to harvesting, selection, juice extraction, fermentation...... There is a very strict set of standards.
I have a professional grape farmer and a winemaker who can make 'fairy rhyme'.
It's a waste to have such a delicious wine just for me. I want to start a winery in Saloyan, is Miss Anne interested in investing? ”
"Of course I am." As long as it is what Da Liang wants to do, Anne is interested: "After such a fine wine is put on the market, it will definitely shock the world, and it will definitely become the darling of nobles, wealthy businessmen and dignitaries."
This is a business that must be profitable, and I am willing to fully cooperate with Young Master Liang to open this winery. ”
"Then trouble Miss Anne." Having made a casual business, Da Liang was in a better mood, he said: "In addition, in order to hide the origin of the 'fairy rhyme', I need to open another winery to make low-end red wines."
I should have no problem with the opening of the distillery to Miss Anne for me. ”
"No problem! I will come forward to provide you with the greatest tax benefits. If you are in the empire, your taxes are completely exempt. ”
For Anne, the more factories that Young Master Liang opened in Salo Yang, the better. He has more property here, so he won't watch the war break out here, which is in the interest of the empire.
And for Da Liang...... Opening a distillery is the first step for the Great Grave to begin his involvement in this world's industry, and he can learn about the production model of this world through the production of the distillery. It is also possible to give the Great Tomb a general understanding of the industrial level of the world through the study of the distillery equipment.
The dinner began, and the food on the table slowly moved along the route of the magic array.
Da Liang ate the steak that Sophia had cut for herself, and said to Annie, "By the way, I invited you here this time mainly to talk about the Dock Magic Academy. ”
Hearing that Young Master Liang began to talk about business, Miss Anne wiped her mouth with a napkin and looked like she was listening attentively.
Da Liang continued to eat while saying, "Talk while eating...... Don't be nervous, relax. I am here to entertain you, not for a show of force, but for a show of strength. We lived on this land before 2000. Although it has become something we do not recognize, this is the plane of the Lord in which we lived.
We built this place more prosperous back then than we do now, so you don't need to worry about us having thoughts on destroying the world.
The world is yours and ours.
I just want to use our power to make our common world a better place.
Therefore, I need to get the Dock Academy of Magic. ”
In this palace...... Anne could feel that the strength of these ancient heroes was far stronger than she had estimated. The momentum exuded by the full-body armored warriors who were just standing on the edge made Anne feel powerless to fight.
She had no doubt that Young Master Liang had the strength to destroy the Flominck Empire. And Young Master Liang has been hiding his strength, so that Anne can't guess what his purpose is?
"Young Master Liang, there's a question I don't understand. You can show your strength and get everything you want, so why do you only need a dock magic academy? ”
Da Liang stretched out his hand to show the magnificent palace and said to Anne, "Do you want me to show power to the world?" ”
"No!"
