Chapter 860: Banquet

Since the momentum of the beginning was interrupted, Grand Duke Kaveh did not intend to do anything straight to the point. Instead, he took out the style of the aristocracy, and used all kinds of social and social methods in a round. Anyway, there are also their own people on the other side, and the response to things is not too outrageous.

Of course, the main reason for coming up with these communication techniques is because it is already evening, and it will be dinner time after a little delay. In the morning, before departure, the deacons serving the marquiss had already been informed, so they should have prepared beforehand. But to be responsible for the food of so many people, I am afraid it will take some manpower and some time.

It's easy to quarrel when you're hungry and talk about things. This is the life experience of Kavi Gong. In the past, when he didn't want to get things done, he would come hungry or let the guests go hungry. Usually in this case, if he can still negotiate things, he will look up at the person opposite a few times and keep such a person in his heart.

I'm not here today to quarrel, so it's not advisable to be hungry. The best time to talk is after eating and drinking, and after a meal, refreshments. At that time, people were the most relaxed, and things were much easier to talk about. Of course, this is also a matter of experience.

In addition to hosting aristocratic balls, the Grand Ballroom in the West Building can accommodate nearly 100 people at the same time with a long table. Although there is no way to let all the people of the Duke's Guard in, it should not be a problem to let those with knighthoods in attendance.

More than a dozen servants from the Grand Duke's family, including the two deacons, almost all of them went out to prepare for this 'banquet'. They didn't even let Wana, who was originally a maid in this house, help, after all, Wana was just a commoner and had never seen such a big battle.

Besides, they were sent to this family, and they also wanted to show their breath. This is not to say that they want to be transferred back to the Grand Duke's castle. Sent to serve the Marquis of Balan, their performance is as good as the Baraan's family. Even if you don't give the head of the family face, you must not be ashamed. This is a family of servants who have served the nobility for generations, and it is not at all an outsider's ambition.

It's just that before today, staying in this magician's house, they had no place to behave except to prepare three meals and clean the environment. It seems that the work has become easier, but the mental burden is much more.

Look at the people in this family, the lich who was once the demon king, an old black dragon. No matter how old he is, he is not something that mortals can handle. There is also the scourge of the Empire, the Demon Prince Azad...... Everyone who is not trembling and living their lives, for fear that one of them will be unhappy.

Today, a large banquet of the aristocratic rank was finally held, although it was not to entertain foreign guests, but relatives from afar, but no one wanted to hear a word of criticism, or even a word of criticism. So they all did everything they could, and they had to be perfect.

Finally, under the leadership of the archdeacon, everyone worked together to prepare a feast for hundreds of people at dinner time. And along with the wine, the long table was filled.

Although the style of this large number of delicacies is still a fan of the local style, or to be more precise, the aristocratic style of the Gwana Empire. But the food served is not the same at all.

Since they came to this house about half a year ago, they originally had an arrogant attitude, thinking that from a noble family, even if they were just servants, they would have a higher vision of food than magicians. So on the grounds of ensuring the safety of the marquis's diet, they occupied almost the entire kitchen.

Except that the lich only ate the food made by the two magic apprentices, even the magician ate the delicacies from the Grand Duke's family. They are also quite proud of this.

As for the attitude towards the lich, as noble squires, they are no strangers. There are many nobles who are afraid of death, not the cooks and servants they trust, who do not even drink water. Maybe that lich had the same habits.

Until one night, the two apprentices made a very fragrant dish called 'curry' as a supper, and the marquiss who had tasted it did not want to eat the food they made again, and even called it 'pig food'.

Such a statement came from the mouth of the magician. It's just that the other party thinks that as long as it's something to eat, it can't be wasted. Anyway, what you need on a daily basis is just nutrients to maintain your body's functions, so no food is bad. No matter how unpalatable it is, eat it and pull it out again.

Without comparison, there is no harm. This is also from the mouth of the man. Anyway, the Marquises didn't want to eat any more of the food they cooked, and it was impossible for those two magic apprentices to serve their group of servants. In the end, the Grand Duke was specially sent to serve his granddaughter, who was a cook of all kinds of delicacies, and was reduced to the point where he could only cook for the people who were also servants.

This result is not to say that the chef himself could not accept it, and if the Grand Duke knew about it, the noble man would probably not be able to accept it either. And the wrath of a nobleman is not something that their small families attached to it can bear. So what else can I do, pull down my face, and humbly ask for advice. Anyway, as a chef, it's my duty to learn more dishes. Not to mention, it's really delicious......

I didn't ask for advice, but after asking, I realized that I was the frog at the bottom of the well. What especially made the chef and the deacon staggered was that the two magic apprentices were desperately adding spices that were more expensive than gold. I can't help but complain privately that if they can also use spices as a wild sprinkling for money, the food they make will be delicious.

But this perception was overturned not long after. The two magic apprentices know so many types of cooking and practices that one wonders if they are really magic apprentices, rather than professional cooks. Spices are not sprinkled wildly, and the resulting food will be delicious. Instead, it depends on the taste and method of the food itself, and then learns from each other's strengths and weaknesses to make a truly delicious dish.

Today's banquet was supposed to be prepared in the original way based on the principle of not making mistakes. At least the Grand Duke won't be in the dilemma of having nothing to eat even though he has a whole table of dishes because he doesn't like new flavors.

But at the insistence of the Marquis of Balan, they were able to serve only the newly learned dishes. Otherwise, the head of the family would rather starve to death than go back to eat pig food, and they would not be able to open a small stove or really let this person starve to death. It is estimated that the Marquis of Baran shouted that she was hungry, and she was going to be arrested and tortured by the Grand Duke, why she was starving his granddaughter.

Now, these newly learned dishes are finally on the table. The deacon in charge watched from afar with a look of uneasiness, as the Grand Duke tried the food he had never seen before, with a puzzled expression.

In fact, not only the Grand Duke, but all the members of the Duke's Guard in attendance were the same. Although the fish is the same fish, the meat is still the same meat, but different methods are used to make food that is both beautiful and fragrant. The rest is just to muster up the courage to try the taste.

At first, some people were determined to go to justice with generosity and forked a piece of meat with a fork. He still closed his eyes and stuffed them into his mouth. In the end, everyone is crazy about grabbing food, stuffing one of their mouths into a bulge, for fear of eating less than others. Even the Grand Duke was not exempt from vulgarity, for the food was so delicious that he was about to chew his tongue.

As for the old man's original destination, it seems that he has been thrown out of the clouds, and all of them have been forgotten.
