Chapter 444: Isn't It Just?
"Oh, Ling'er, that's a good idea!" Fu Yan clapped his hands and admired, "That's it!" ”
"It's not big, is it?" Baili Qingyun frowned, feeling inappropriate.
"Cut, what's so bad? Our buddies have snatched the concubine from the palace, what is the point of robbing a few girls in the Qinglou? "Iron Kunlun Road.
"There's just one problem." Fu Yan said, "Baili, how is your swordsmanship?" ”
That's knowingly asking.
"Swordsmanship? It's okay. "Baili said that it is okay, which means that my swordsmanship must be far above you.
"Can you beat Xiaoxiangyu?" Tie Kunlun asked.
"Xiaoxiang...... Jade? Baili was taken aback, which Xiaoxiangyu?
There is only one Xiaoxiang Jade he knows, and he is the master of the Xiaoxiang Sword Sect among the four major sword sects.
"Don't tease him." Xiao Chen said, "I'll have to tease him later!" ”
After the big guy told him what had just happened, Baili Qingyun was directly stunned.
How is it possible to mumble to oneself in the mouth, to turn over and over in a sentence?
Nishimura Zhicun and they were ready to leave for home, and the four of them came to say goodbye to Xiao Chen in person, and this time their attitude was the same as before, polite, submissive, and bowed three times when they said a word, which was particularly polite.
Xiao Chen had already completely convinced them at the Lantern Yuan Meeting.
Dongying people are hard and not soft, if you want them to be convinced, it is not okay to treat each other politely, you must be strong to overpower them, they will respect you, humble you, and learn from you.
A few people said goodbye after a few pleasantries, and invited Xiao Chen to sit in their guest house, if you have time to spare, Lord Xiao......
After they left, Xiao Chen immediately ordered someone to prepare some gifts, and personally took Fu Yantie Kunlun and the others to the Siyi Pavilion to pay respects.
According to Chinese etiquette, if someone of similar status comes to visit, you must return to worship in the shortest possible time.
It may sound like a superfluous move, but that's ancient etiquette.
The so-called coming without being rude is also said to mean this.
Although they visited the West Village last time, it was night, and Xiao Chen couldn't go back to worship, in the final analysis, the little devils in the east don't know how to be polite, and they don't know you well, so they shouldn't go to visit people at night.
Seeing Xiao Chen's arrival and bringing a cart full of gifts, Nishimura Shicun and several others were flattered and ecstatic.
Hurry up and order someone to prepare a banquet, and today no matter what, we must leave Lord Xiao for a light meal, and it will be regarded as an adult to see us off, but we must not refuse.
Xiao Chen agreed angrily, and took the initiative to take off his coat, firstly to show that he was not outside, and secondly, to prepare for a big drink.
Today, the master is in good shape, I will measure you.
The food of the Dongying people is really not worth mentioning compared to Huaxia, even if it is to entertain a big guest like Xiao Chen, he can't come up with any good things, nothing more than some dorayaki, smoked salmon, tempura, grilled quail, and other foods similar to snack appetizers.
The wine is still the green wine they brought themselves, clear but not clear and tasteless, and a sip can fade out of a bird.
But there is one thing that Xiao Chen has really never seen, what are the few soft and yellow lantern-like things worn on a small wooden stick?
"Oh, it's our traditional delicacy, it's called Burning Bird Lanterns." Nishimura Shicun hurriedly explained.
"What lamp?" Xiao Chen was puzzled.
"It's just that the eggs in the belly of the chicken are not ripe! Because it looks like a lantern that is carried, it is called a lantern, and it tastes very good, so please try it anyway. "It's still Nako Kudo who explained clearly, that is, eggs that have not yet been formed.
"It's just killing chickens and taking eggs, not bad." Xiao Chen then understood, what kind of special lantern did his heart say, isn't it?
It's just that he really can't get used to drinking this sake, so he asked people to take two jars of Shanzuofen wine he brought!
This is a serious soju, more than 60 degrees, and it is only when you drink it that you have energy!
"Oh, that's really good wine!" Nishimura Shicun drank it in one gulp.
"It's done!" Xiao Chen drank it all directly, and showed them the bottom of the cup, "We are drinking, not fish farming!" Don't say anything, drink three glasses first! ”
Xiao Chen was anti-guest, domineering and persuading him to drink, and several people had to obey their fate, and the stomach of three glasses of wine was grinning, full of red light, spicy.
"Lord Xiao is really a good amount of alcohol." After drinking three glasses of wine, Nako Kudo's face was like a peach blossom, but she was also more delicate, and smiled at Xiao Chen, "I seem to be a little drunk, so I won't drink it, right?" I'll pour you wine for the villain, okay? ”
"Not good." Xiao Chen took the opportunity of holding the wine glass to hold her soft and boneless little hand, and stroked it gently, which felt quite slippery.
"Oh, Lord Xiao, you really ...... Well, I'll give up my life to accompany the gentleman today! Nako Kudo laughed.
"You are such a beautiful woman, how can I give up your life?" Xiao Chen borrowed wine to cover his face and teased, "Then it might as well kill me." ”
"Giggles, Lord Xiao, you are really good at talking, but I look ugly, but we really have a lot of beautiful women, if Lord Xiao is willing to come to our place as a guest, they will definitely be willing to accompany you...... Drink. Nako Kudo was very generous, and her smile became brighter and brighter.
"That's a must-go!" Xiao Chen knew that the formal conversation had begun.
"I wonder when Lord Xiao will go back to Yanyun County?" Nishimura asked casually.
"Alas...... I don't know yet, the situation in Yanyun County is very complicated, there are some things that I can't decide, and the emperor is also considering it. Xiao Chen sighed, looking very worried.
"That's right." Nishimura Zhicun nodded, "Lord Xiao, I heard that you have opened a mutual market there now, and a lot of furs have come in from the northern Xinjiang, and we are actually very short of these things, although we have no trade relationship between us, but if I buy a little in the name of a personal friend, is it okay?" ”
"Uh......" Xiao Chen pretended to hesitate for a moment, and suddenly slammed the table, "Of course this is not possible...... But if Nishimura-kun makes you three glasses of wine in a row, then I'll think about it. ”
"Haha, I know that Lord Xiao is a responsible person!" Nishimura was overjoyed, and sure enough, he drank three glasses in a row.
"But if it's coal, is that okay?" Kinoshita Yonggang said suddenly.
"Coal? What coal? Didn't you? "Xiao Chenxin said that these little devils are really doing special intelligence work, and they actually know that our Yanbei Prefecture produces coal?
I just found out about it, sir.
Uh-huh, they must have sent someone to survey it before.
"If so, is it possible?" Shimokawa Kamiki said.
"Alas...... This is really not possible. Xiao Chen sighed and asked himself, "Why?" Because the port of Shunfeng is in the hands of the Rus, and as far as I know, relations between your two countries are very tense, so I don't think they will allow me to sell coal to you, even if I wanted to. ”
Xiao Chen's words were full of helplessness.
