Chapter 38: Afternoon Tea

The servants waited outside the door, and Valen and Brown walked in with their bodies straight.

When I came in, I found that the layout of the house did not look like an auction venue.

A long table with chairs around it looks like a dining room.

But since it was a small auction, the two didn't pay much attention to it.

Valen and Brown had arrived relatively early, and in addition to them, two other merchants were already seated.

After all, they didn't know each other very well, and Valen nodded to them as a hello.

"They're here too?"

After finding a place to sit down, Brown was a little surprised, the two businessmen he knew. One is in the cloth business, and the other is in the iron business, both of which are not compatible with the eight poles of salt.

"Tempting gold coins, no one will refuse."

Valen shook his head.

Not long after, more than a dozen merchants who had been invited arrived, and several merchants also sat down beside Valen, forming small groups, and everyone whispered to each other.

"Your Excellency, do you know those young ladies outside?"

"I don't know, I don't know which one."

"They are all so temperamental, and the clothes are very beautiful, they are my type of favorite!"

"Do you like that clothes?"

"Hey......

These businessmen here can be regarded as rich in experience and well-informed. But today, they are discussing which young lady has a better figure and which one is more popular, just like Brother Chu.

To say that these welcome ladies are not particularly good-looking, they are more beautiful than them, and these businessmen have seen a lot. But this kind of slim-dressed young lady goes to that station, and that kind of noble temperament is incomparable to others.

Even many people are a little itchy after watching it.

Crunch!

As the businessmen exchanged ears, the sound of the door was pushed again.

Zhang Feng and Caroline appeared together, followed by Blanche.

Blanche is a strong man captured by Zhang Feng to act as a temporary auctioneer.

Blanche was not surprised to know that Zhang Feng was going to hold an auction, and Blanche was not surprised to know that Zhang Feng was going to make him an auctioneer, but when she saw the items that Zhang Feng was going to auction, her eyes were about to fall to the ground.

Even now, there was still a lingering afterglow of shock in her eyes, and now she understood why Zhang Feng dared to give him a high salary of 30 silver coins per month.

"Hello Lord Castle! Hello Madame Lord! ”

Seeing the two of them, the merchants stood up and saluted.

"Hello everyone!"

Hearing them call themselves the City Lord, Zhang Feng felt normal, but when they called Caroline the City Lord's wife, Zhang Feng always felt a little strange in his heart.

Caroline followed closely with this maple, keeping an appropriate distance from everyone, but it did not seem too distant, her every move was very elegant, and the word nobility was perfectly interpreted in her.

Zhang Feng said with a kind smile:

"I am deeply honored to be able to participate in my auction in your busy schedule, I heard that many people have come back from far away overnight, and I guess they didn't have time to eat lunch, right?

I have prepared a little simple afternoon tea to satisfy everyone's hunger, and I hope you will not dislike it. ”

Seeing that the city lord was so polite in both his words and deeds, these merchants were a little flattered and even forgot to speak.

Of the nobles they had seen before, who was not high above and had no one in their sights?

If it weren't for the fact that the nobles had a lot of money and were easier to earn, the merchants would not want to deal with the nobles.

But the first time I saw Zhang Feng, the new city lord today, with a few simple words from him, they felt that most nobles couldn't compare!

Valen was the first to react, and he hurriedly said politely:

"Where, where, the city lord is too polite!"

At this time, all the merchants were relieved, and they were not busy, or they were not hungry. Although I don't know what afternoon tea is, I still have to be polite.

In fact, apart from Valen Brown and a few of the merchants who stayed in Red Leaf City, there were indeed merchants who came from other places.

After all, not every businessman happened to be in Red Leaf City, but through the message from his subordinates, they really didn't want to give up this opportunity after knowing that Zhang Feng had sent a small gift, so they came from all afar, and they really didn't have time to have lunch.

"You're welcome, sit down, afternoon tea is ready."

Zhang Feng walked straight to the main seat and sat down, and Caroline sat quietly and elegantly beside Zhang Feng.

"Smack."

Zhang Feng clapped his hands, and the female greeters who made the businessman's eyes shine rushed in.

They push a small food cart filled with tempting food.

Originally, businessmen were staring at these young ladies, after all, everyone has a love for beauty, and it is rare to meet a woman who makes them old men fall in love.

But when they found out about the food they had brought, everyone couldn't take their eyes off it, including Caroline.

Cups, cups of milk tea with a rich fragrance were brought up by the welcome lady and placed in front of everyone.

Everyone looked at the steaming water in front of them in amazement, not knowing what such a fragrant thing was.

Then there is a sandwich with ham, eggs, lettuce, a tempting tart, a fruit salad, and a large piece of fried venison that is charred on the outside and tender on the inside.

Gollum~

Almost all of them swallowed.

In fact, in Zhang Feng's opinion, because of the limited ingredients, these afternoon teas are really shabby, there is not even a cake, and it doesn't look attractive, after all, even milk tea is instant.

But this is only Zhang Feng's own opinion.

In the eyes of others, this afternoon tea is both hearty and beautiful, especially the aroma of that cup of instant milk tea is even more addictive!

Although I haven't eaten it yet, no one will think it will be unpalatable just because of this appearance and taste.

After serving all the food, the welcome ladies stood aside politely, and Zhang Feng said:

"Ladies and gentlemen, please."

Some people couldn't help it for a long time, and as soon as Zhang Feng's voice fell, he immediately picked up the milk tea and drank it.

"Gollum ~ Wow! Is this coneus put in? It's so sweet and delicious! ”

Some people took the lead, and others stopped being reserved and started to move.

Caroline tasted a small sip of milk tea in an elegant posture, the aroma of milk and tea raged in her nostrils, the rich sweetness bloomed on the tip of her tongue, and the temperature was just right, her comfortable eyes narrowed.

"Zhang Feng, what is this? It's so sweet! ”

Caroline asked quietly.

"Milk tea, do you like to drink it?"

Zhang Feng tasted it, and he felt average, he preferred the ones with fruits and pearls in them.

"Uh-huh, I like it!"

In just a few short days, Caroline's favorite drink, from red wine to cola to milk to milk tea, has changed unpleasantly!

The fickle woman.

Zhang Feng complained silently in his heart. Then he whispered:

"This taste can only be considered average, I'll send you some better ones when I get back."

"Uh-huh!"

Caroline chick nodded like a peck of rice, she didn't care what Zhang Feng said was more delicious, what she cared about was that Zhang Feng was willing to give it to her.

"Wow, is this the queen's bread? It's so fluffy, and it tastes so good! ”

"For the first time, I learned that fruit doesn't have to be boiled and eaten, and this kind of fruit is delicious!"

"My family also often eats venison, and occasionally puts some spices, but the taste is not comparable to that of the city lord at all, the difference is simply one heaven and one underground!"
