Chapter 41: You can drink such an authentic Belgian beer!
Gao Xianda knew that Wang Yu would not trust him no matter what, so Gao Xianda could only leave. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
This is undoubtedly another blow to Coxenda.
There were already few people in their imperial court camp. Compared with the four Taoist priests of the Heaven and Earth Society plus Meng Yan, the three non-mainstream of the Shenlong Sect plus one to kill Matt, and the two Western warriors of the King of Pingxi plus the other force that was enough to deal with the ambush and assassinate the Heaven and Earth Society Incense Lord, the power of the imperial court was of course the thinnest in people.
There were not many people, and one of them ran to Henan and was no news; A Yin Xiang lord who assassinated the Heaven and Earth Society was also killed by revenge; Now the other one doesn't trust him either. There is still a vacant slot, and I don't know if no one has joined at all, or if it has already joined which sub-camp.
Gao Xianda could only leave temporarily and find another way.
He received Kangxi's task, and he didn't have to be on duty, so he went back to his private house. There are no outsiders here, and he can rest a little more.
As soon as he returned to the private house, a housekeeper handed over a note, saying that Lord Nan Huairen of Qin Tianjian had prepared a table of wine and banquet tonight, hoping to invite Deputy Chief Rui to come over and talk about it.
Gao Xianda thought that he had made a bunch of comments on Nan Huairen's cannon during Kangxi's private visit to Weifu last time, and he had offended Nan Huairen. He actually posted to invite himself over this time, which naturally felt very strange.
However, Gao Xianda also wanted to know what was going on with him, he looked at the time, although it was already dark, but if he wanted to attend the dinner, he still had time. He asked the butler to prepare a sedan chair, and sent someone to report it first, saying that he would go over.
If he were moving on the streets on his own, of course he would have ridden faster. But when you go to an official's house to make an appointment, you have to follow the rules and put on a good posture.
When Gao Xian arrived, Nan Huairen was already waiting here. The Qintian supervisor is the fifth grade, the deputy head of the imperial guard is the third grade, and Gao Xianda is Kangxi's close minister. So although Nan Huairen is older, he still has to call himself a subordinate official and wait outside.
Gao Xianda saw that Nan Huairen was not hostile, so he didn't put up any shelf, got off the sedan chair in advance, walked to the door, exchanged a few words with Nan Huairen, and the two of them entered the inner hall hand in hand.
Nan Huairen ordered people to rectify a table of delicacies, and at first glance it took a lot of thought, although there are no big dishes of mountain and sea delicacies, but they are all ordinary and high first-class like to eat. I wanted to come to Nan Huairen and asked someone to inquire about Gao Xianda's taste.
What is more noticeable is that there is a beer barrel next to the table.
"Both Germans and us Belgians like to drink, and John Tong ordered the construction of a number of facilities for making wine. The temperature in our city of Beijing is about the same as that in my hometown, so I brewed a batch of wine according to the recipe of my hometown, you can call it beer. Nan Huairen said, filled Gao Xianda with a glass, and put it in front of him.
It was a cloudy ale, not the pale lager with hops added to it today. The wine, though cloudy, has a charming amber color, with white and pure foam on it, and it is beautiful in a glass, shimmering in the candlelight.
Belgian beer is the best in the world, and even in modern times, it is a rare wine, let alone in China during the Qing Dynasty.
Moreover, in those days, glass cups were also rare and rare, and their value was not cheaper than jade.
Moreover, Nan Huairen was afraid that Gao Xianda would not be used to it, so in addition to beer, he also specially prepared some aged liquor, which was enough to see Nan Huairen's sincerity.
If it was the original Ruidong, it is estimated that he would not be too accustomed to the taste of this wine, but when Gao Xianda was in Los Santo, he was used to drinking beer. He picked up his cup and took a big gulp.
A cool breath was poured down immediately, and then a fragrant wheat fragrance returned. He was able to taste the beauty of the wine at once. Gao Xianda burped and laughed: "Good wine, good wine!" The entrance is fragrant and mellow, and it is really a rare good wine! ”
Nan Huairen was quite happy when he saw that Gao Xianda was used to drinking, and said repeatedly: "If you drink well, you can drink more, let's not get drunk today!" ”
Gao Xianda had the mentality that if he came, he was not polite, so he picked up the chopsticks and ate them. Eat a few bites of food and drink two sips of wine. The food is delicious, the wine is delicious, and it feels delicious.
After three rounds of drinking, Gao Xianda said: "Lord Nan called me here today, not just to invite me to drink some beer, right?" ”
Nan Huairen said with a smile: "Lord Rui is a smart person, of course he can't hide it from you." The last time you put forward your opinions, I thought they were all useless nonsense at first, but when I looked back and pondered it, the more I thought about it, the more profound I felt. It was as if every comment opened a whole new door for me. ”
"Hahaha, Nan-sama is too modest." Gao Xianda said, "I'm just talking nonsense." If you ask me to make a cannon out, I won't be able to do it!" ”
"Lord Rui is too humble." Nan Huairen said: "After your order, I have improved several designs, and replaced the design of the shells, and the new version of the sample will be cast soon." I'm here to thank you today! ”
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say." Gao Xianda said: "I'm just a rough person, if there is something inappropriate, please ask Nanda Haihan!" ”
"Science is all about making progress through constant questioning! Come, come, I toast you with a glass of wine! Nan Huairen picked up his glass and said, "If Mr. Rui has any ideas about science and technology every day, just tell me." Although I am not talented, I can also help come up with ideas together. ”
Gao Xianda also raised his glass and drank the beer in the glass.
But at this time, the system prompted him: You are in the same camp as Nan Huairen, and your official position is higher, you can consume camp merits at Nan Huairen to unlock and buy skills and items in the direction of science and technology without gaining his favor. The increase in official position and friendship will reduce the amount of merit consumed to unlock.
"So that's what he did!" Gao Xianda secretly said.
He had known for a long time that Faction Exploits could be redeemed for rewards, but he had never been able to find a place to redeem them. So it was here! And it seems to be the site of a science and technology specialty. Other props such as martial arts and equipment have to find another person.
He looked at Nan Huairen, Nan Huairen's good impression of him was not bad, and the whole line was green. Although it is not too tall, it is already very good, which shows that Nan Huairen is really a big-hearted person. Not as proud as it seems on the surface.
Gao Xianda thought for a while and said, "Master Nan, since I've said this, I really have something here, I haven't been able to figure it out, and I need your help to take a look." ”
As he spoke, Gao Xianda took out a remote-controlled bomb and put it on the table. (To be continued.) )
