Chapter 16 Drinking Horses by the Pool
The host of the annual meeting is a pair of twin girls, who look like they are sixteen or seventeen years old, but they are surprisingly tall, both above 1m75.
With the cheongsam on his body, the high heels on his feet, and the face that is exactly the same, he immediately attracted everyone's attention as soon as he appeared.
"Welcome to Momiji Mountain Resort and attend the company's annual meeting." Among them, the girl in a black cheongsam was the first to speak.
"It is Mr. Qin's turn to be the leader of this year's annual meeting, although you may come from different departments and countries, but to be here tonight is undoubtedly to make very outstanding contributions to the company in the past year.
"The healthy development of the company is inseparable from your efforts." The girl in the white cheongsam continued, "Mr. Qin knows that your time is very valuable, and in order to thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to come to the banquet, we have also specially prepared some small gifts tonight. ”
"Sixteen of these gifts will be given away before the official start of the annual meeting.
As she spoke, she opened the cabinet next to her and took out the bottom item.
"The first gift is the [Traveler's Trial Type IV Backpack], which can reduce the weight of the items in the backpack by 60%, which is a 10% increase in weight reduction compared to the Type III backpack, and it is still under development.
"Mass production will be a year away at the earliest, so now it's unique, and I'm sure my colleagues in the business department will love it."
Li Yu was indeed a little moved when he heard this, the effect of this prop looked mediocre, but it was very practical for interdimensional travelers with a limited counterweight of 5kg per arrival.
Li Yu had already bought a [Traveler's Exclusive Type III Backpack] before, allowing him to carry about 2.5kg more.
Once or twice may not be obvious, however, it can become a huge advantage over time.
This piece of equipment was finally selected by an accountant lady from the finance department.
The latter looked at the symbols that appeared on the giant color TV, looked at the mobile phone, and compared the two together for a long time, and finally determined that the winner was himself, so he happily went to the stage to receive the prize.
"Ah, good luck, I won the lottery as soon as I came up," Hephaestus looked envious, "why don't I have such good luck." ”
"You want that bag too?" Li Yu asked, "For you, there is not much difference between type IV and type III. ”
"Of course I didn't use it myself, and she wouldn't use it herself." The handsome mixed-race guy pouted at the female accountant who won the lottery, "That backpack is designed for you employees of the business department."
"There must be a lot of people who are interested in it, in other words, it can be sold for a lot of money as long as it changes hands."
Li Yu glanced at the teacher on the side, and saw that the latter really looked eager to try.
At this time, the twin sisters began to introduce a second gift, and this time it seemed to fit the theme of the evening.
It is a cordless vacuum cleaner that often appears at the annual meeting, and its name is [Casual Suction].
However, the effect is not the same as that of an ordinary vacuum cleaner, it can suck things within ten meters in diameter directly into the trash can behind it, and it is sucked in out of thin air like teleportation magic.
Gifts include a baby turtle that can play all the popular songs, a violin that can lift the bar, a magic potion that can be poured over to instantly accelerate the growth of plants, and a prize of two million......
Li Yu didn't draw any of the above things, and Shi Yiyu and Hephaestus were the same, watching the whole process and sharing the joy of others.
When the last prize was also taken away, the handsome mixed-race guy comforted himself, "It's okay, there should be two more rounds, and the big prizes are behind." ”
Li Yu calculated, sixteen prizes at a time, and forty-eight prizes three times, and there are about one hundred and thirty guests tonight, and the probability of winning the lottery is almost one-third, which is not a very optimistic number.
After the first round of the lottery, the waiters began to serve the food, and they pushed the dining cart to the table, which was filled with various dishes, all of which were traditional Chinese dishes.
Including Wensi tofu, lion's head, roast duck, boiled cabbage, Longjing shrimp, squirrel mandarin fish, sour and hot mullet egg soup......
Li Yu had already eaten some things to pad his stomach before he came, but after seeing these dishes, he couldn't help but move his index finger.
Shi Yiyu was also very satisfied with the food in front of him, "The last time I went to London to attend the annual meeting, they actually fooled us with fried fish and salad. ”
"Not really, at least there should be foie gras." Hephaestus said as he rolled the roast duck.
"Originally, there were, but it was said that the dish was canceled because of protests from animal activists."
"Ha, that's not surprising."
Li Yu looked at the empty table at the front again, "What about the directors, won't they eat with us?" ”
Shi Yiyu glanced at his watch, "It stands to reason that it's time to come down at this time, maybe there's something going on over there." ”
As she spoke, the door to the living room was suddenly pushed open from the outside.
There was a sound of horses chirping in everyone's ears, and then a white pony with a snow-white body and no trace of variegated color slowly walked in from outside the door.
On its back sat a muscular man with a tall nose, blond hair and blue eyes, with a typical Gaul appearance and a two-cornered hat on his head.
The horse, which had apparently been on a short journey just now, was still panting as he entered, and then went straight to the sink in the middle of the drawing-room, bowed his head and drank from it.
And the man on its back seemed to enjoy the shocked gaze of everyone at this moment, and sat upright on the horse's back for a while before jumping down.
His eyes looked around and finally fell on Shi Yi's body, his eyes lit up, and he handed the reins of the horse into the hands of a waiter next to him, and instructed, "Take care of Marengo for me." ”
After saying that, he walked over this way.
Shi Yiyu couldn't help but roll his eyes, "That guy ...... Do you really think you are Napoleon? ”
"Who is he?" Li Yu asked.
"Bernard, one of the company's five directors and probably the most idiotic, is always like to sensationalize and do ridiculous things like the one now, to get everyone's attention."
"And rumor has it that he likes to do things to female employees." Hephaestus added, "You'd better be careful. ”
"I can take care of myself." Shi Yiyu said, "Even if I am a director, I must abide by the company's rules and regulations, and Bernard can't force me to do anything." ”
While the three of them were talking, Bernard had already walked in front of Shi Yi's servant and bowed, "This beautiful lady, have we met somewhere?" ”
Without waiting for Shi Yiyi to answer, he shook his head again and said, "No, no, if I had seen you before, I would definitely not have forgotten it." ”
Sorry, it's late~ Let's go to bed first
