Chapter 138: Imperial City Banquet
As the time approached, more and more people poured into Xiaoyao City, in just two days, Xiaoyao City was directly overcrowded, and the players reached about five million, and the grain that Lao Jiu transported from the Xiaoyao Lake granary was estimated to be enough for ten days' consumption.
However, this trick lured the snake out of the hole, and it did catch a big fish. Because the people from the military aircraft department have found the traces of the players in the east of the Easy City, and according to various clues, the location of a group of mysterious players has been confirmed.
However, Lao Jiu has already let people closely monitor the radius of dozens of miles, and at the same time secretly transferred the Qilin Legion back to the Xiaoyao Basin, and now it is hidden in the Xiaoyao Lake granary, because this place will definitely become the first target of the other party.
Just three days after the 6.12 college entrance examination, the city wall of the Imperial City finally began to "Helongkou"! The miracle-like Xiaoyao Imperial City directly dominated the post and was hyped up by players, while the Xiaoyao Imperial City became more and more lively.
Lao Jiu personally set up a banquet in the imperial city, and all streets and alleys were full of open-air banquets, and everyone could enjoy them at will. The salute over the imperial city has not stopped since noon, and Lao Jiu personally posted a banquet for the heads of major gangs and representatives of consortiums and enterprises in the palace.
The construction of the palace, which can also be said to be high-end, covers an area of nearly ten square kilometers, and today it is almost gathered here, and all the players in the game with heads and faces, although there are only thousands of people combined, but the specifications of the banquet are of the highest level.
Of course, Lao Jiu doesn't understand any of this, and this is all handled by Long Sifeng. Because almost all of Lao Jiu's diplomacy was handed over to Long Sifeng, Lao Jiu almost only heard of his name and never met his person.
But this does not affect Lao Jiu's normal interaction with everyone, Lao Jiu has been mixed up since he was a child, and he is still handy in dealing with this kind of braggart scene. All he had to do was walk around, greet everyone, flatter each other, and say things that weren't nutritious.
"Hehe, Xiao Jiu, you don't make a noise every time, it's a blockbuster!" For Lao Jiu, among these people, there are still some acquaintances, and as soon as he turned around, he ran into Murong Lichou.
"Haha, grandpa said it was funny, Xiao Jiu is just a blind toss, it's just a game, it's just a game!" Lao Jiu said very casually.
"Hello grandfather, I have often heard Lao Jiu mention the Murong family recently, and I have never had a chance to visit, and I forgot that my grandfather should not forgive me." Long Sifeng took Lao Jiu's arm and said politely on the side.
"Hehe, the girl of the Long family is also amazing. I saw you once when I was a child, and the brighter you grow up, Xiao Jiu is also blessed! There is a chance to bring Xiao Jiu to Kyoto to play. Murong Li smiled and looked at Long Sifeng and said.
"If you have the chance, you will definitely go to see you with Xiao Jiu." Long Sifeng said with a smile.
"Didn't that girl come in September?" Lao Jiu asked casually.
"I was still here just now, I don't know where I ran again, this girl, I'm used to being wild, maybe I'll run into it in a while." Murong said worriedly.
"Hehe, little girl, that's all. How has the Murong family developed recently? If there is anything you need help with, just say it to Xiao Jiu. Lao Jiu smiled and said to him.
"Alas...... Sad! Murong Lichou suddenly sighed, looked left and right, and whispered to Lao Jiu, "Yuanlu City is yours, right?" You should have noticed something, right? ”
"I wonder if the Murong family is involved?" Lao Jiu blinked, looked at Murong Lichou and asked.
"You kid, the ghost and the goblin, there was a death order from above, the city must be taken, the Murong family knows that the city is related to you, so they gave up this opportunity and gave it to Momen, just sent some unimportant people, meaning." Murong said in a low voice.
"You must be careful of Momen, their influence is not ordinary, military, political, business, they all have a great influence, you kid can lay such a big foundation, it is indeed surprising to us old men, but under the general trend, our Murong clan is also powerless."
"This Xiao Jiu understands, as long as you don't participate and don't embarrass Xiao Jiu and me, Xiao Jiu will be grateful, as for the others...... Hum. Lao Jiu said this, snorted coldly twice, and then said, "If you want to take food from my mouth, it also depends on how their teeth are." ”
"Alas...... As long as you have a number in your heart, maybe after today, there will be big changes in the game, I just hope you don't resent us for not helping you. Murong Li said with a sigh.
"How can you be resentful, Xiao Jiu is not unreasonable. You can rest assured when you are old. Lao Jiu looked at Murong Liwu and said.
"Then my grandfather will be relieved." As soon as Murong Lichou said a word, his face suddenly changed, Lao Jiu followed his gaze, and saw a high-end long-legged beauty, holding a young man in a suit and leather shoes, walking towards them with a smile.
"Tang Long, the giant of the Mo Gate, next to him is the Mo family's Murphy." Murong Lichou briefly introduced.
"Nine Heavens, sure enough, the dragon among people. In the Lower Tang Dragon! At this time, Tang Long had already come to Lao Jiu, stretched out his hand with a smile, and introduced himself to Lao Jiu.
"Hehe, Momen giant, I only heard of him before!" Lao Jiu shook him very generously, and then replied with a smile.
"Hehe, now it's the world of you young people, I won't mix with the old man, you talk slowly, I'll meet old friends." Murong Li smiled chou, and then planned to leave.
"Then Xiao Jiu won't delay, you always talk to old friends." Lao Jiu looked at him and said.
"You're busy, let's talk casually." Tang Long also made a gesture of please and said politely.
"Brother Jiu's actions, but let me wait for shame!" After Murong left, Tang Long looked around the palace hall and said with emotion.
"Hehe, Brother Tang said that he was laughing, it's just a blind toss in the next place!" Lao Jiu smiled and said without pain or itching.
"It's a pity that we can't afford to toss even if we want to!" Tang Long said self-deprecatingly.
"That's just Brother Tang's stumbling up a lot, Brother Xiang and I, I was originally a turtle, and the toss is right, it's the divine beast Xuanwu, the toss is not right, haha...... It's a big deal to be my turtle. Lao Jiu said very arrogantly.
"Alas...... This is really inferior to you! Tang Long sighed and said, "The Momen has been inherited for too long, and sometimes I really envy you as a brother. ”
"Brother Tang is a slap in the face, don't you know that more than half of the people who envy Brother Tang are here!" Lao Jiu said half-jokingly.
"Hehe, it's for my brother to be a little bit interested." Tang Long smiled freely, and then asked, "Ninth brother, do you say that it is the Sui and Tang dynasties?" Or is it better to have three kingdoms in troubled times? ”
"Of course, in reality, I envy the prosperity of the Sui and Tang dynasties, and I still yearn for the Three Kingdoms in the troubled times in the game!" Lao Jiu looked at him and said a word, and then asked rhetorically, "I don't know which one Brother Tang likes?" ”
"Maybe it's because the big family has been in for a long time, I still yearn for the prosperity of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, in this way, hello, me, and her!" Tang Long said with a smile, and finally didn't forget to look at Lao Jiu and Long Sifeng beside him.
"Hehe, it also depends on the individual's understanding, even if it is a good society, there will be class divisions, the Mohist ideology is good, but how much can be done?" Lao Jiu smiled and said lightly.
"Yes, thousands of years of ideological inheritance cannot match the real gap between the rich and the poor. I wonder if the ninth brother has any thoughts on joining Momen? Tang Long looked at Lao Jiu and asked seriously.
"We are originally a family, and I have been learning Momen's thoughts since I was a child." Lao Jiu blinked and said.
"Well, yes, I'm thinking too much." Tang Long was obviously choked by Lao Jiu's answer, then looked at Lao Jiu and said, "What does Brother Jiu mean is that he is going to merge the huge family business into Huaxia?" ”
"This family business is too small, I'm afraid it will be the same as Dream City, so I can only wait." Lao Jiu spread his hands and said.
"Hehe, Brother Nine is really joking, it's so easy for you to have no friends!" Tang Long also said half-jokingly.
"How is it possible, when no one knows you, you must be full of relatives and friends! What does Brother Tang think? Lao Jiu looked at him and asked.
"It seems that the ninth brother has great ambitions! It's for my brother's abruptness, if it's possible, I'm willing to be a confidant with the ninth brother. Tang Long looked at Lao Jiu and suddenly said with emotion.
"Hehe, I can't be a confidant, but we're still friends, aren't we?" Lao Jiu smiled, picked up the wine glass and gestured to Tang Long.
"Haha, it's still the ninth brother who is open-minded, come, cheers to his friends!" Tang Long also laughed, and then touched a glass with Lao Jiu.
"Originally, I thought that the ninth brother was just a member of the mountains, but now when I see it, I feel ridiculous about my thoughts. Come, this cup is for your brother! Tang Long said self-deprecatingly, and then took the initiative to toast to Lao Jiu.
"I thought that Brother Tang was really proud and arrogant, but now he is like a familiar man at first sight, this cup of brother respects you!" Lao Jiu also took a step back, and then poured Tang Long a glass of wine, and the two touched another glass.
"Haha...... Save one of the three glasses of wine. Tang Long finished drinking the wine in the cup, looked at Lao Jiu and suddenly laughed and said.
"Haha...... Don't let the beauty go alone! Lao Jiu also looked at Tang Long and laughed.
At this moment, the two men seemed to have a tacit understanding, because they knew that after tonight, maybe the two sides could only meet on the battlefield.
As night fell, the banquet gradually came to an end, and the banquets in the streets and alleys were all withdrawn, and all the shops and houses in the Dream City gradually began to close, and a large number of players began to leave the Imperial City.
The crescent moon in the sky was also slowly submerged by dark clouds, and the atmosphere of the entire imperial city became tense in an instant, and the scattered players in the city seemed to feel something and began to leave quickly!
