Chapter 556: Stuffy Sticks and Sweet Dates
This time, the dinner lasted five hours.
A full five hours.
Of course, no one will spend five hours eating a meal, but taking turns to come forward to chat with Li Zhen, chat with Xun Shifei, and then look for the Son of Heaven from other countries to chat, this is the theme.
Standing hard for five hours, Rao is an iron man can't bear it.
Xun Shifei saw sweat on his forehead, and his whole body seemed to fall apart.
Not to mention Li Zhen, who has never been in good health, his face is white. There is no chance to sit, because everyone comes standing, and no one else can stand, you sit, right?
And it's not suitable for sitting and chatting on the sofa, so there is no relaxed atmosphere for a dinner party. Can only stand.
Standing forcibly for five hours, you have to use twists and turns to chat with others, and while not making mistakes, you also have to analyze the subtext of other people's words word by word. It consumes physical strength, but also consumes spirit.
Finally chatted with all the emperors, Li Zhen and Xun Shifei glanced at each other, and both of them saw the wry smile in each other's eyes.
Xun Shifei whispered: "Senior brother, can your body withstand it?" ”
Li Zhen shook his head: "I can't stand it." ”
"Me too, I can't hold on. It's two o'clock in the morning. ”
"Why don't you clean up, make a summary, and disperse?"
Xun Shifei nodded: "I think so too." As he spoke, he quietly wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Li Zhen cleared his throat and was about to speak at the end of the meeting.
At this time, the Son of Heaven of the White-robed Kingdom didn't know whether to drink or chat, and suddenly shouted: "I heard that a new type of transportation has appeared in New Kyushu, called a train." I've heard from our country's envoys that it's a supreme luxury. ”
As soon as this statement came out, it was translated by a group of translators.
Suddenly, there was a noisy sound of pandering in the venue.
"I've heard about it, too."
"I saw it when I was in the sky, the long steel track. And that section by section, a long string of iron cars. To be honest, I've been thinking about it all the time. ”
"There are still many days ahead, so don't miss this test ride experience when you have time."
"Alas, but I'm worried about this security. When I came, I brought a lot of people with me, and I heard that you can't sit in a single carriage. ”
"Security is a real issue. This time I'm here to get down to business, and it seems that I'll have to wait until the next time I have a chance. ”
"Alas, what a pity."
“……”
Hearing everyone's discussions, Li Zhen and Xun Shifei, who were about to speak, glanced at each other, and the two smiled bitterly again.
Li Zhen sighed deeply, dragged the tired expansive shell, and drank the remaining wine in the cup.
Looking up again, the signature sunny smile on his face was once again on his face, and the tired look on his face could no longer be seen. I didn't see the slightest tiredness at all.
Li Zhen cleared his throat, and the angry Lang shouted: "Everyone." 、”
Everyone turned their heads in unison, and then looked at Li Zhen with a kind smile. Wait for him to speak.
Li Zhen said with a shimmering spirit: "That's the case." I've heard that everyone wants to experience the special means of transportation in New Kyushu, the train. And we, the Kyushu Academy of Sciences, and the new Kyushu government, also want to try to promote this new type of transportation. Solve more countries with convenient transportation. So, if you are interested, why don't you take advantage of tonight and go to Quancheng County? ”
As soon as this statement came out.
Quite a few people were in good spirits.
"Okay!"
"It's great."
"Self-experience in batches, it's better to go together tonight. This also saves some troubles and saves some resources for the security forces of Shinkyushu. ”
"Those who know my heart, Dean Li too."
"It's just wonderful. I'm looking forward to it now. ”
"When are you going?"
"I've wanted to take the train for a long time."
“……”
As soon as they saw the excitement of the crowd, Xun Shifei and Li Zhen's eyes showed a touch of deep exhaustion, but Li Zhen was still smiling enthusiastically: "Then everyone should prepare." ”
Xun Shifei also said: "That's the case. All the staff, the retinue, the guard regiment, all rode in the back carriage. Let's take the interpreters and take the first-class carriage. In this way, it can be loaded. ”
"Not bad, not bad."
"That's how it should be."
"Great, can you go now?"
“……”
Li Zhen was about to cry, he really wanted to swear, how could this group of grandsons have so much energy. After tossing for so long, aren't you tired at all? Foreigners are not used to sleeping at night?
Alas.
The corners of Xun Shifei's mouth were bitter, and he remembered that he would have to face all kinds of questions on the train later, and he would have to be a guide all the way, and he would have to constantly explain to others. Both legs are weak, and it seems that I don't want to sleep today.
But seeing the eager appearance of the sons of heaven in various countries, he could only grit his teeth and bear it. I was secretly worried that I couldn't cover it a little, could I resist this thin and poor junior?
In terms of human feelings, Xun Shifei wanted to say something, or Li Zhen wouldn't go.
But he also knew that he and Li Zhen had to go. No one can go to go, but he and Li Zhen must not be absent. As long as there is a place where these days are, neither of them is indispensable.
Xun Shifei cleared his throat: "That...... Secretary Min. ”
A beautiful woman forcibly resisted the feeling of yawning, and walked in front of Xun Shifei with a tight face: "Son of heaven." ”
"You go and arrange it, that ...... Transfer a train and board the train in about 40 minutes. If there are other services, it will be suspended. ”
"Yes, Son of Heaven."
"And. Send a report to the internal guard of Quancheng County. Be prepared for security. ”
"Yes, Son of Heaven."
Xun Shifei thought about it for a while, felt that this was still not safe enough, and said: "Send a report to all places along the station to say that all stations and along the railway have deployed security forces." Just in case of an accident along the way. Also, send a telegram to the Eastern Air Force saying that 50 airships will follow from the sky to complete reconnaissance and deal with urgent affairs. In addition, ten Peng boats were sent for cruise. Foolproof safety. ”
"Yes, Son of Heaven."
Secretary Min wrote down all the orders.
There was a country where the emperor smiled wryly: 'We're just experiencing the train.' There's no need to stir up the crowd like this. It alarmed almost the entire military force of Dongzhou, and also alarmed the air force. ’
Xun Shifei proudly stood tall: "No, no." This is only the garrison force of Dongzhou, and the military force will not be inward. Hahaha. ”
In a word, people are terrified. The atmosphere was silent a lot. And this is also Xun Shifei's deliberate attempt to show off the prosperity of the country.
Immediately afterwards, Xun Shifei said: "The reason why you are so prosperous is because you are all my distinguished guests in New Kyushu. To be honest, I usually take a guard regiment with me when I travel. But your life is far more important than mine. Don't be sloppy, let alone dispatch the garrison force, even if the military strength of the whole country is dispatched, it will not hesitate. ”
A sentence of scenes, a slap of a stick, a sweet date, knocked everyone dizzy, and even felt complacent.
Laughter was heard.
The atmosphere was relieved again.
