Chapter 549: Banquet
After staying in the Xicang Forest for four days, Chu Chen took Lin Manyue and Jiang Tao back to Ningqiu City.
Because of this journey, Chu Chen had already flown on the bone dragon a few times, and he was already more familiar with it, so when he returned to the base, he actually caught up with dinner.
Speaking of which, these brothers and sisters who came with Chu Chen all the way, Chu Chen hadn't sat down with them and had a decent meal for a long time!
Not to mention Chang He and Liu Lin, the first people to follow Chu Chen, are Chu Chen's own family, Chu Chen hasn't gotten together with them for a long time, often just bumping into and chatting a few words, Chu Chen has all kinds of things to deal with as soon as possible.
It just so happened that Chu Chen came back this time and brought back a large amount of dragon meat, which could let these elders who followed Chu Chen try it!
So as soon as Chu Chen landed, the first person to find was not Jiang Xin, but Miao Chunhua, who was in charge of the canteen.
After giving Miao Chunhua a space ring full of dragon meat, Chu Chen also explained to Miao Chunhua, asking her to vacate a canteen and prepare dozens of tables of good dishes for those who have followed Chu Chen for the longest time, and have a good time to relax!
Of course, not only those who have followed Chu Chen the longest, but also the slightly more important people in the base, such as Zhang Yuan, Shen Xing, officials of various departments, etc., Chu Chen also asked Ye Xiang and He Rong to inform them, let these people pad their stomachs first, and Chu Chen will treat them at night!
Since the disaster struck, the living conditions of the survivors have plummeted, but as the professionals have grown up, their strength has gradually increased, and although their living conditions cannot be restored to the state before the disaster struck, they have gradually recovered a lot.
Therefore, for the survivors living in Ningqiu City, the living conditions here are better than those of the ordinary base, and ordinary good news can't get them excited!
And Ye Xiang and He Rong, after spreading the news that Chu Chen was going to invite everyone to dinner, it could be regarded as setting off a frenzy of discussion in the base!
Who is Chu Chen?
At best, he is the founder of the survivor base in Ningqiu City! It's the city lord behind the scenes! It's a protector!
At worst, he's the destroyer of the survivor base in Nanyang City! It's the bloodthirsty butcher! It's the Great Demon King!
No matter how you look at Chu Chen, you know that Chu Chen's strength is terrifying, he can open his mouth and make the bone dragon breathe, and he can wave his hand and make the skeletons swarm!
Moreover, Chu Chen on weekdays is still a guy who sees the head of the dragon but does not see the end, some survivors who have newly joined Ningqiu City want to see Chu Chen's true face, but they never see Chu Chen's figure, often they just heard that Chu Chen is back, and within a few hours, they learn that Chu Chen has left......
In just a few months, Ningqiu City has developed from a ruin to a medium-sized survivor base with a population of nearly 400,000, and these nearly 400,000 survivors, who have not seen Chu Chen, account for at least eighty percent!
Of course, Chu Chen's banquet this time is not for everyone to participate.
But this just shows that Chu Chen's rewards and punishments are clear, everyone has a chance, if you don't see Shen Xing, can you take a few ordinary survivors from Shenjia Village into the canteen?
Similarly, this also proves from the side that Chu Chen can still distinguish between enemies and friends, which makes many survivors in the base who have been worried that Chu Chen will go on a killing spree, and breathe a sigh of relief!
……
The banquet started at nine o'clock, and the whole cafeteria became extremely lively!
The table where Chu Chen was made up of several tables, and the people sitting on it were some veteran-level figures, such as Chang He, Liu Lin, Jiang Xin and others!
There are still a small number of people at the table who joined later, but their identities are very important, such as Zhang Yuan, Zhang Yunxian, Xiao Qi, Shen Xing and others!
Of course, not all the veterans were present, not to mention anything else, Lei Jun, Zhang Shulin and others missed the banquet because they were not at the base, and Ye Xiang also had to guard the city gate, so they could only wait for He Rong to eat before replacing him.
After all the wine and food except for the dragon meat were served, Chu Chen got up, raised his wine glass, and said to everyone: "Everyone, since the establishment of the base, we have gathered less and left more, even yesterday, I still took Lin Manyue to slay the dragon in the Xicang Forest!" ”
Generally speaking, when Chu Chen spoke, basically no one dared to speak, this was a habit that Liu Lin, He Rong, Ye Xiang and others had developed with Chu Chen for a long time, and in the following time, it affected other new members.
But the topic that Chu Chen said this time was so amazing that it caused bursts of exclamations below!
"Ahem, ahem!"
Chu Chen coughed lightly twice, which quickly calmed down the voice in the cafeteria, and then continued: "I know that the previous leaders liked to talk and were very annoying, so don't say much, everyone eat and drink well, I will do it first as respect!" ”
The last time I had a drink with Wei Shuo, Chu Chen clearly recognized his own amount of alcohol, so this time Chu Chen deliberately asked Jiang Jing to find a small wine glass for himself, and now when he talks about this, it really looks arrogant!
After drinking the liquor in the small wine glass, Chu Chen sat down.
When Jiang Xin beside him poured himself wine, Chu Chen took the lead and smiled with everyone at the table: "Haha, I'll make this clear first, I'm afraid you are more familiar with my amount of wine than me, no matter who you drink with, I will stop ordering, you just drink it yourself, don't force me to drink as much as I want!" ”
"No, no!"
"Boss Chu, just feel free!"
"Boss Chu, how dare we force you to drink!"
……
Waving his hand to the people who were in a hurry to express his position, Chu Chen took the lead in moving his chopsticks, sandwiched half of the deer leg into his bowl, and took a bite.
Lin Manyue, who was sitting on Chu Chen's right, was also not to be outdone, and took away the other half of the deer legs in the plate.
After Chu Chen gnawed a few bites of the deer leg, everyone at the table had already begun to move, which was also the reason why Chu Chen arranged for them to sit with him, if some unfamiliar people were arranged at this table, I am afraid that few people would be able to let go of eating and drinking.
Jiang Tao, who came back with Chu Chen and Lin Manyue, Chu Chen also arranged for him to sit at this table, and at this time, he was eating with a mouth full of oil!
Chu Chen raised his wine glass and smiled at him, "Master Jiang, how is it?" The food in our Ningqiu City is good, right? ”
Jiang Tao was still chewing a large piece of wild boar meat in his mouth, he raised the wine glass to Chu Chen with his left hand, gave a thumbs up with his right hand, swallowed the wild boar meat in his mouth, and smiled at Chu Chen: "Haha! Good! Very good! Following the guy from Old Man Yu, he asked me to eat sweet potato leaves all day long, and I wanted to beat him for a long time! ”
After Chu Chen heard this, he took a sip of wine and shouted to Zhang Min, who was sitting next to Lin Manyue, "Zhang Min! I brought Master Jiang back this time just to ask him for his help and ask him to create a set of armor and round shields for every member of your Knights! ”
Zhang Min's eyes suddenly lit up, and he raised his wine glass and smiled at Jiang Tao: "Master Jiang, this is really troublesome for you!" Come, I'll give you a drink! ”
Chu Chen watched for a while, and saw Zhang Min and Jiang Tao chatting about the style of armor and round shield, so he shifted the target.
After eating a few bites of vinegared radish skin, Chu Chen looked at Zhang Yuan, then raised his wine glass and smiled at Zhang Yuan: "Uncle Zhang, I heard He Rong say, Wei Shuo's guy went back?" How was the auction of your business alliance held? ”
Zhang Yuan thought that Chu Chen would talk to him at the end, after all, it seemed that only he and Jiang Tao were foreign forces at this table.
Zhang Yuan, who was surprised and delighted, raised his wine glass with both hands, touched Chu Chen lightly, and replied with a smile: "The auction is very well held, our Wei League Master has decided to increase our efforts, apply for a few more plots of land with you in Ningqiu City, continue to establish a few branches, and at the same time send hundreds of subordinates to come over and listen to my dispatch!" ”
Chu Chen nodded with a smile, raised his glass and took a sip before saying, "No problem, there are still many things in Ningqiu City in the future, and I want your business alliance to help, let's help each other!" ”
Zhang Yuan also smiled, but remembering the purpose of Chu Chen's trip this time, he asked Chu Chen again: "Boss Chu, did you go to Xicang Forest this time and find a magic crystal with the 'Gathering Demon' characteristic?" ”
When Chu Chen heard this, he exhaled heavily and sighed to Zhang Yuan: "Alas! This time I can be regarded as having found it, I hope there will be no more problems, this freshwater problem is too critical! ”
