103 Dancing with you

On this day, Jiajing and Yanmei were in charge of welcoming the arrival of guests early in the morning.

Although the reception was held in the evening, the necessary preparations were still required, especially for the wealthy merchants, who came to visit early with a cart of gifts.

They should seize the opportunity to make friends with the nobles, because in their opinion, the nobles themselves will not be able to socialize with them just by holding the drinking party, and how can they pay attention to them.

Because the city lord Cafirot also came to participate, the nobles gave Jiajing enough face, most of them came early, but the children of the nobles did not show up so early, and those who came early were arranged to rest in the guest room. They are the active crowd of the party, and without them, the atmosphere of the party would be lively.

In addition to the money spent, these noble children are also an important indicator of the pomp and success of the party.

The safety factor is also an indispensable and important part of the party, in addition to the three hundred city guards sent by Cafirot to patrol outside, Jiajing's also sent a hundred private soldiers to come.

If it weren't for preventing someone from taking the opportunity to storm Badaling, the steward Levi even proposed to send an additional 200 soldiers.

In addition to the rich merchants who were like flies touching honey, the first nobleman to arrive was a well-dressed middle-aged and elderly nobleman, followed by two simply-dressed servants.

After the servant in charge of reception outside the door took the business card of the middle-aged and elderly nobleman, he opened his voice and shouted, "Baron Elsara is here!"

There are also certain rules for this shouting, those who are lower than the master's title are all someone + knighthood + coming; those of the same rank are preceded by the word "welcome"; those with a higher rank than the master should shout "welcome someone + title + come", and there can be no confusion at all.

As soon as Baron Elshara entered the door, he saw Jiajing dressed as a nobleman and holding a golden scepter of green magic crystals, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly walked over, bowed to Jiajing and said, "Baron Elsara has seen Lord Viscount!"

Jiajing smiled slightly, and returned a salute: "I have to thank Baron Elsara for holding a cocktail party today." Come, take Baron Elshara to the living room to rest. ”

Baron Elsara, who saluted Jiajing again, went to the living room to rest in a penguin walk of aristocratic standards, led by the servant.

There are many nobles who come, although Jiajing's mansion is not small, but it can't provide a guest room for each person to rest, except for those female dependents and some special people, most of them can only stay in the living room to rest, and communicate with other nobles by the way.

The housekeeper Levi watched the man walk away, and then whispered to Jiajing: "Master, Baron Elsala's family is gradually declining, and the property assets have been almost sold, but he is vain and pursues pomp, every time he has a drinking party, as long as he is invited, even if he sells his goods, he must be dressed up to participate, if it weren't for the fact that he is still a little connected in picking stars, the old slave will not invite him to come." ”

Levi used to be a housekeeper in a nobleman's house, and he was very familiar with the personnel of the star-picking, and later the nobleman was raided, and the old-fashioned Levi didn't want to leave the star-picking, and saw Yanmei recruiting a housekeeper, so he came to apply.

Jiajing answered, and just sat down, when there was another shouting outside the door, and Jiajing, who was helpless, had to stand up again and greet the nobles who came hypocritically.

There was a steady stream of guests, almost hundreds of people, and Jiajing couldn't have imagined that there were so many nobles and wealthy businessmen in the small Star Picking City!

By the time the reception officially began, Jiajing was already tired. This is not physical fatigue, but mental, and dealing with nobles is not an easy task.

Jiajing, who was not accustomed to hypocrisy, felt even more uncomfortable, and he couldn't help but secretly admire when he saw Levi, the butler who had always stood upright, with a sincere smile on his face, and every nobleman who came to say a few words.

Jiajing hurriedly drank a cup of tea, handed over the matter to Levi to deal with, and ran away irresponsibly.

The reception is scheduled to take place in the back garden.

Under the illumination of various magical lights, the entire back garden shimmers with colorful lights. The long tables are filled with a variety of fruits, food and drinks.

In the middle of the garden, a large open space was organized, and a band played soft and romantic tunes, and many aristocratic men walked up to the women they liked and politely invited each other to dance.

After a brief opening ceremony, Jiajing and Yanmei found a place to sit and watch the gorgeously dressed men and women on the dance floor dance.

Cafirot naturally had to make a few speeches.

However, he had long been accustomed to these occasions, so he said a few words casually, and vaguely pointed out that Jiajing, a new nobleman, had an unlimited future, and then talked to a few nobles a few more words, and then left the reception under the pretext that something was wrong.

He just came to give Jiajing a face and let people know that Jiajing was special.

The city lord has the majesty of the city lord, so naturally he can't get too close to other nobles, so he has to leave early, and the secret agreement between him and Jiajing is not known to other nobles.

There will be nobles who will continue to come to make friends with Jiajing and Yan Meila, even those star-picking nobles are no exception.

Although Jiajing is only a viscount, the blind can see that Cafirot takes care of him, and Yihong Wine has a bright future, so the advantages of having a relationship with him naturally outweigh the disadvantages.

Jiajing reluctantly entertained a few words, and finally was really helpless, so he used the magic megaphone and said loudly: "Yanjing Liu Fu Jiajing is very grateful to everyone for coming, and decided to dance with his most beloved wife Yanjing Zhang Yanmei to thank you." In addition, Jiajing also specially prepared ten jars of the best Biluo Chun, which will be sent immediately after the dance, I hope everyone has a good time!"

Yan Mei saw that those aristocratic women kept throwing flattering eyes at Jiajing, but they were limited to themselves and didn't dare to come over, and her heart was not very happy, and now she suddenly heard Jiajing say in public that she wanted to dance with her, and she couldn't help but feel extremely sweet.

Jiajing gently took Yanmei's hand and walked gracefully into the dance floor, and many aristocratic women had disappointment on their faces.

The master danced, and those aristocratic sons could not lag behind, and hurriedly invited their respective objects to dance together. When those women saw Jiajing confessing to Yanmei in public, they were disappointed, so most of them responded to the other party's invitation and went down to the dance floor to dance.

After Jiajing and Yanmei finished the song, they instructed the housekeeper Levi to go to Biluochun, and they both left the back garden and lived their rare two-person world.

In the past, there were also a large number of high-purity wines for the nobles to drink, but they could not be compared with Bi Luo Chun. In addition to being able to drink Biluochun in Yihong Tavern, only people with great power can drink outside, and you can show off to others all day long with a small sip. The nobles saw Bi Luo Chun coming up. Although it was a little regrettable that he couldn't have much friendship with Jiajing, they also rushed towards Biluo Chun one after another, competing to taste the best wine.

The cocktail party is just a bridge for both parties to get to know each other, and no one can expect to have any true feelings in a cocktail meeting, which must be cultivated slowly in the future.

Friendship is often accompanied by interests, and this thing will not be put on the table by the nobles who claim to be elegant.

After drinking, although the nobles can still maintain the so-called aristocratic demeanor and knightly code, many aristocratic men and women, two people in pairs, or even three or four people together, have secretly left the Jiajing mansion and don't know what to do.

The reception was held very successfully, and everyone basically achieved their respective goals. The nobles, who were usually not very friendly, did not dare to make anything happen at the drinking party. Cafirot and Jiajing can't help but give face, those burly Kasia warriors, not only put there for people to watch, the nobles know that as long as they dare to make trouble, those two three-meter-tall violent bear warriors will first throw them into the street without hesitation.

The story of them breaking Sean and his men's legs has long since spread, and Jiajing was just an unknown civilian at that time.

With the green eyes of Cafirot, the earth emperor, Jiajing is in Star Picking City, and he will not be afraid of any force.

After the cocktail party, after a rough calculation by the special personnel, there were as many as 130,000 alloy coins for those gifts!

Among them, the rich merchants gave two-thirds, which was much more generous than the nobles.

Knowing this number, Medir changed his mind on the spot and began to encourage Jiajing to hold more drinking parties.

The benefits of the wine party are obvious, and many nobles have provided convenience to the Yihong Tavern in order to get on the ship of Jiajing, either explicitly or covertly, making the tavern's business bigger and bigger.

Among them, several large wineries that boycotted Yihong, sold wine at a low price, and refused to unite with Yihong, under the signal of the forces behind them, had to come to discuss with Yihong about joining the alliance.

After that, there would be nobles and wealthy businessmen who would continue to visit Jiajing, and Jiajing, who was so annoyed, had no choice but to hand over all the affairs here to Medir to manage on his behalf, and then go back to Badaling to continue training soldiers, and by the way, further improve the huge fortress of Badaling.

Jiajing, the character of this follower of Medier, is very confident that Yihong can develop to the current scale, and he has spent a lot of effort to hand over the business from Star Picking City to him as an agent, and Jiajing can also rest assured.
