Chapter Twenty-Four: Treats, Conflicts
Hearing this, Qu Fatsan and I looked up, but saw that the person talking to us was a blonde foreigner.
This man is probably in his thirties, or older, anyway, I don't know the age of foreigners, he looks a bit like Robert Downey in Iron Man, and his neatly manicured beard makes people think it's very interesting.
On the other hand, his skin is very white, and even white people rarely have such a fair complexion.
If you don't look like such a gentleman, just looking at the beard, you really look like a woman.
Although he is a foreigner, the accent of his speech is very standard, and he speaks politely.
The foreigner smiled and said: "I don't know, but looking at the dragon and phoenix among the two people, the heroic posture must be a powerful person, so I have a heart to make friends." My Chinese name is Ma Yuanchao, I don't know if I can appreciate my face and give me a chance? ”
When I heard the other party's Chinese name, I couldn't help but laugh and said buddy, who took your Chinese name?
The old ghost seemed to know that I was going to ask this question, and said with a smile: "My girlfriend, she is a very beautiful lady of the magic capital, and she is also my Chinese teacher. ”
I said, what nationality are you?
Ma Yuanchao said the Americans.
I said, do you know what your name means?
Ma Yuanchao said that I know, the war in the last 50s, in your China, called it the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, but it doesn't matter, my girlfriend is happy, and I am a staunch anti-war person, and I have an attitude of opposition to all wars waged by the US government in the interests of arms dealers, chaebols, and politicians......
The other party won our favor with a few simple words, Qu Fatsan covered his stomach and said that he was so hungry, can we eat first and then chat?
Ma Yuanchao laughed and said that this is of course.
He led us upstairs, all the way up to the sixth floor, the view from the top of the building is quite broad, Ma Yuanchao ordered a box facing the sea, after taking a seat, said to us: "Yingbin Lou is the best restaurant outside Penglai Island, not only the taste is good, but also the scenery is very good, the only drawback, it is estimated that it is too expensive." ”
How expensive am I talking about?
Ma Yuanchao groaned for a while, and then said: "For example, if you have a meal here, you almost have to ask for a golden shell." ”
I have no concept of the financial currency of Penglai Island, ask a golden shell? Didn't you say that all the shellfish used here were colored shells?
Ma Yuanchao laughed and said that Caibei is the base currency here, and there are silver shells, gold shells and diamond shells on top of this, which is basically the decimal system, that is to say, ten color shells are equal to one silver shellfish, and ten silver shells are equal to one gold shellfish...... And so on, as for purchasing power, eating in a small restaurant outside, basically a colorful shellfish can eat a good meal, and you can also live here for a day.
I couldn't help but take a breath and said I'll rub it, then this meal is enough for others to eat a hundred meals?
Ma Yuanchao waved his hand and said that it doesn't matter, the money earned is to be spent, not to mention that it is a happy thing to be able to make two friends, everyone will order it casually for a while, don't save me money.
I said that Boss Ma seems to be doing big business?
Ma Yuanchao said modestly: "Hey, what kind of big business, I am also introduced by a friend, to help provide some supplies to Penglai Island, and all I earn is the fractional money from the sale of resale - like us, it is the most hard, to make money, or Penglai Island itself, just a little magic weapon talisman, can be sold at a sky-high price, worthy of my hard work for several years......"
While we were talking, a beautiful waitress in a cheongsam walked in, greeted us in accented Chinese, and then asked what to order.
There is a menu, most of them are some seafood, what abalone sea cucumber, lobster shark fin and the like, Qu Fatsan has no scruples, presumptuous points, seeing that it is a little excessive, I hurriedly stopped him, and said that enough is enough, order some staple food to fill the stomach.
Ma Yuanchao said that it doesn't matter, you can order whatever you like, the seafood of Penglai Island is very famous, because it is full of aura, so it tastes extraordinarily delicious.
In addition to the food, there is also wine, which is called "Qiong Jelly and Jade Liquid".
Good fellow, this name is also dare to be called.
After ordering, after the waiter stepped back, I asked, "That girl just now, why does she feel a little weird, not a local?" ”
Ma Yuanchao said Penglai Island in the East China Sea, I feel the same as Dubai, most of the people in the service industry are from other places, and the waiter just now should have an accent from Japan.
I said so, no wonder it sounds so familiar.
Ma Yuanchao was stunned for a moment, and said Brother, have you been to Japan?
I hurriedly waved my hand and said no, I was just interested in Japanese culture.
Ma Yuanchao said that in fact, many cultures in Japan are actually learning from China, and at this point, you should not be humble; I like China more than Japan, and although many things have declined for one reason or another, I think China is much better than Japan in this alone.
He clenched his fist, and I laughed and said yes, Japan doesn't have nuclear weapons.
Ma Yuanchao shook his head and said that I am not referring to this, I am talking about cultivators, Chinese cultivators, much more powerful than those in Japan, and there is one thing that I remember the most - a few years ago, I participated in a Japanese Huiyang Festival, which was the process of hundreds of men running wild in a thong, it is said that it was to compete for a shrine saintess, and finally defeated everyone, and the successful winner was a Chinese man.
I'm a little strange, how can there be Japanese waiters on Penglai Island in the East China Sea?
Ma Yuanchao laughed and said that Penglai Island is overseas, and it must be unknown and mysterious in your China, but in the cultivation world around the East China Sea, it is actually quite famous, especially in South Korea, North Korea, Japan, Southeast Asia and even Europe and the United States, it is not a secret thing, and their magic weapons, talismans and exercises are very famous.
Belch......
Hearing his words, I was suddenly really depressed, I thought that Penglai Island in the East China Sea was a mysterious place to rest on its laurels, but I didn't expect that people had already reformed and opened up, and even ahead of us, with the entire international market.
After chatting for a while, the dishes came up one after another, and after the wine was poured, Ma Yuanchao raised his wine glass and said that he hadn't asked the two high names yet?
I said that my name is Lu Yan, and this is my cousin Qu San.
Ma Yuanchao's eyes opened, and he shouted in surprise: "The murderer Qu San is also? ”
This time it was my turn to be surprised with Qu Fatsan, I looked at this person with a shocked face, and Qu Fatsan said, "Have you heard my name? ”
Ma Yuanchao took a deep breath and said Hado, the Seven Demon Kings of Yangon, but died in your hands?
Qu Fatsan left his name at the beginning, just because of this effect, naturally he did not deny it, nodded slightly reservedly and said: "It's someone." ”
Ma Yuanchao clapped his hands and said that I really have a good eye, I saw two extraordinary people in the hall just now, and I invited them decisively, but I didn't expect it to be a big luck - the two may not know that after the death of the Seven Demon King Hado, there was a lot of discussion in the entire Southeast Asia, and no one knew what kind of character Qu San was, but he was frightened and uneasy, but he didn't expect me to meet him on this Penglai Island, and it was still like this...... Young talents, come and come, and drink this glass of wine, when the floating life is a big white.
I raised my glass and drank, but Qu Fatsan was not to be outdone, and he was unaware of his age.
A sip of the liquor was hot at first, making people's throats and eyes hot, but when it entered the stomach, a warm current rose and spread among the hundreds of remains, which made people feel refreshed.
Wine!
Qu Fatsan slapped the table and shouted loudly.
Ma Yuanchao stretched out his hand, pointed to the table full of dishes, and said that try their seafood dishes here, they are all very distinctive and flavorful - the fishery of Penglai Island is very developed, fed with aura, fresh but not fishy, I do this sales business, specifically for the world's top Michelin restaurants.
We heard, stretched out the chopsticks to taste, and sure enough, as he said, many seafood have an unprecedented deliciousness, I am not a gourmet, I can only distinguish between good and bad.
These materials are plump and tender, and are undoubtedly the finest.
I'm quite reserved, and Qu Fatsan has no resistance to food at all, so it's good to have a big meal, like a whirlwind, and Ma Yuanchao is smiling beside him, and from time to time he will stretch out his chopsticks and eat a little.
The banquet was not deserted, and it was also very useful for me to hear Ma Yuanchao talk about what he had seen and heard about Penglai Island in the East China Sea.
I don't know if I don't listen, but when I listen, I know that this part of the wharf is part of the commercial area demarcated by Penglai Island, and you can walk at will, and this area, there are as many as 40,000 or 50,000 locals and outsiders, and there is a large peach blossom forest on the island.
In this peach blossom forest, the magic circle is everywhere, ordinary people will only get lost when they enter, and at the end of the peach blossom forest is the foundation of Penglai Island, Biyou Palace.
In this Biyou Palace, no one knows, but it is the highest authority on Penglai Island.
The owner of Biyou Palace is called Princess Hai.
Speaking of this, Ma Yuanchao's face couldn't help but show a look of confusion and admiration, and said to us: "Have you ever seen today's sea princess, that is called a beautiful, simple fairy from the sky......"
I saw him looking upside down, and I couldn't help laughing, and said Brother Ma, don't you have a girlfriend?
Ma Yuanchao laughed and said that you Chinese have an old saying, that the red flag at home does not fall, the colorful flag flutters outside, men, there are often things to play on the scene, why care?
I scratched my nose and said it wasn't an old saying.
While talking here, suddenly there was a quarrel outside the door, at first we didn't care, but we didn't expect the noise to get louder and louder, and after a while, there was a knock on the box on our side, and the Japanese waiter came in apologetically.
She said to Ma Yuanchao in embarrassment: "Ma San, I'm very sorry, this room Prince Maggie has been booked before, can you change to a room on the fifth floor?" ”
