Chapter 51: The Banquet

Yi Chen was stuffy in the room for a day. He inquired about all the connections on the road, and the guys all shook their heads at Phil: "No news, no eyesore being smuggled in." Dear Mr. Phil, maybe you should keep an eye on the airport, there are some special planes that can send people in. ”

For these old relationships, Phil did not hide from them, he directly told them that Chekov might have been arrested by the military intelligence agency, of course, the reason was changed, and he said that his boss assisted in smuggling arms and was targeted by those guys. Without exception, these guys reciprocated with deep sympathy, and then desperately helped to make suggestions, if Yi Chen was really caught, they would also pull out the radish and bring out the mud, and no one would be comfortable.

But they really didn't hear anything. Those MI6 agents gave Chekov a strange injection of medicine, which turned Chekov into a cute hibernating baby bear, and all physiological functions were reduced to a minimum, and then an import and export company controlled by the Military Intelligence Agency imported a batch of deep-sea fish from Yuben, and Chekov was packed into a thermal insulation and sent in the freezer.

Everything is in accordance with the formalities, and there are no violations, so naturally there are no clues to the relationships on these underworlds, and they are suspected of transporting goods from illegal channels. British customs officers also used advanced detection instruments when inspecting the freezers, but unfortunately Chekov's body temperature dropped to an extremely low point, and on the detector it looked like a huge tuna, and without any obstacles, Chekov was transported to the Royal Air Force base on the outskirts of London.

M looked at Chekov, who was still asleep, with satisfaction: "Thank you for me my friends in the CIA, they provided clues, and now they have to give us the blame...... Are you sure you didn't kill the people in that RV?"

Several agents who carried out the operation hurriedly shook their heads: "No, boss, we only arrested Chekov, the person in the RV, according to the judgment of Mr. Second Secretary, is the fox friend dog party that this kid is looking for, and it has no value...... Is something wrong?"

M frowned deeply: "Leave them alone...... The four girls who had been given birth had their necks broken and were in the RV, but according to your report, there were two more men, and they were missing. Could it be that Chekov didn't go to avoid the limelight, but had other affairs to contact? Then it was a real headache, you must have been discovered when you acted, and those two people had to silence in order to keep the secret. ”

Several agents looked at each other helplessly.

M chuckled: "Okay, gentlemen, don't be nervous, I don't mean to blame you, I gave the order to ask you to bring Chekov over, and now that your task is complete, I am satisfied." Do you want a bonus or a holiday? I hope it's a bonus, and I'm short of people right now, so I can't give you a holiday...... I'll just ask for the bonus as gentlemen...... Go back to your post and don't waste time. ”

The gray eyes rolled a few times, and M showed a mischievous smile: "Dear Chinese boy, what are you going to do? Attack the military base? Hehehehe, I'm afraid there is no such crazy underworld boss in the world, right?"

took out his mobile phone and dialed David's internal line: "Mr. David, you don't need to arrange the arrest of Chekov, yes, Ben's colleagues have already caught him...... Now you will give me a closer look at who is behind this incident, yes, that's it, to trace the background of the Russians, you would better try to check the accounts of the big Swiss banks to see if there are any particularly large amounts of money coming in. Well, I wish you all the best, my dear. ”

M hung up the phone and gasped softly: "These young men, it's really not reassuring, why are you so breathless? Do you have to let me, an old woman, take care of everything?" She majestically glanced at the dozen or so subordinates behind her: "Gentlemen, work, send Mr. Chekov into the basement, and when he wakes up, I will interrogate him personally." ”

She added: "Fifty people who look like special forces attacked a house in Tokyo......? Our Chekov boy wasn't far from that place, wasn't it? I wonder if they had any connection? Gentlemen, this is your job...... Speed up efficiency, efficiency, don't always make your peers laugh at our British slow aristocratic style, we are not aristocrats, I hope you understand. ”

×××××××××××××××××××××

David sat in his office, shivering all over, big pieces of sweat oozing from his forehead. Chekov was arrested, Yi Chen will definitely not let it go, he will definitely do something, God, if something happens to Yi Chen, the first one who is unlucky is himself...... Chekov is not in the temporary headquarters, and if someone is sent here, he will know anyway. But he is not here now, then there is only one possibility, he was placed in a military base, M This old woman has a good relationship with the military, no, she is still a member of the military department, she must have sent that bastard Chekov to the military base for safety.

David covered his face, his heart was gloomy and desperate, Mr. Zhang firmly controlled him, his wife and children are now traveling to China, but it is a large trading company in China that pays for it, in case the matter is poked out, he will be finished immediately. Mr. Zhang is a devil, a devil who is more vicious than Yi Chen, Yi Chen just wants to sell some news by himself to facilitate his expansion in the underworld, but Zhang, Zhang actually forced himself to betray all the people, all the people in Europe who are controlled by his own place, the ambassadors, military attachés, first secretaries and second secretaries of those countries, and other big people, he was forced to betray them all, and they are all now controlled by China's intelligence system.

David knew that the things he had done were enough for him to be secretly executed a hundred times, and the results of the work of the British intelligence services for more than ten years, Mr. Zhang was sold by himself with just a few words and a million US dollars...... I think my colleagues in China are celebrating, right? But I am worried and restless here......

A person gently knocked on the door of David's office, David immediately returned to normal, the cold sweat on his forehead disappeared magically, and said majestically: "Come in, what's the matter?"

A new subordinate, the guy David couldn't even figure out his last name came in, pointing to the phone on the table: "Boss, outside phone...... The man was in a hurry, but you ...... Didn't answer the phone?"

David snorted coldly: "The boss is assigning tasks, do I dare to answer the private call?" Pick it up for me again......" The man nodded again and again, walked out, and closed the office door lightly, David sighed, it seems that he was too distracted just now, and he ignored the outside phone at all.

Reaching out to grab the phone, Yi Chen's cold voice came from the microphone: "Dear David, we haven't seen each other for a long time, I have prepared a table of Italian food, I hope you enjoy it." Then Yi Chen hung up the phone.

David almost shouted out: "I don't know anything, I don't know where Chekov is......"

David had the urge to pull out his pistol and add a transparent hole to his head, fuck, Yi Chen, this guy, still let himself live, he is not a cow, he can let him squeeze endlessly. m wants to investigate the details of the Russians by himself, but if he finds out, he will definitely bring out Yi Chen, as long as Yi Chen is finished, he will be finished, so he will definitely not be able to find out the Russians. But if he does nothing for a long time, he will not sit in this position for a long time, and if he gets off the stage, Mr. Zhang will definitely not be satisfied......

"God, teach me, what the hell should I do?" David's heart wailed.

××××××××××××××××××××

In Paris, Bai Jiade looked at the group of sons and brothers with satisfaction, and looked at the shocked look in their eyes with satisfaction. A dozen ornate silver statues, their eyes inlaid with sapphires as he had commanded, were ready in just one day...... Those related users who forged artworks are all masters, and Bai Jiade knows this deeply...... In particular, the statues that can make the jade texture of silver behave like sterling silver, Bai Jiade can't help but admire their craftsmanship.

Kane stood near Bai Jiade, according to what he had told in advance: "Sir, I'm going to arrange security work, I'll arrange someone else to be by your side, and you have to be more careful, this is not your territory." ”

Bai Jiade nodded arrogantly and waved Kane to walk away. Two 'black devil' subordinates walked over and followed behind Bai Jiade, like two door gods.

The boy buddy exclaimed: "God, dear Mr. Marquis, do you still have a fief?"

Bai Jiade shrugged his shoulders helplessly: "Oh, a small piece of worthless territory, two or three lakes, a few hills, three castles, that's all, those vineyards, wineries, I just keep them as a little pastime, yes, a pastime that makes me look happy." Honestly, do any of you want him? I can sell it in cash, and those territories make me less than 100,000 dollars a year, and I'd love to settle in Paris, they're of no use. ”

A young brother asked unknowingly: "So, Mr. Marquis, how much do you bid for that territory?"

Bai Jiade said to himself: "Well, the vineyard and that workshop, there used to be a winery that offered 30 million yuan, the castle, some strange collectors wanted to buy it for 300 million US dollars, along with the cultural relics and works of art inside, those peaks and lakes, a big investment company wanted to open up a tourist attraction, and negotiated with me for 170 million, but I didn't agree." ”

Bai Jiade is blowing nonsense here, blowing these sons and brothers' eyes widen, opening their mouths wide, and looking at this rich man shrouded in golden light. Finally, they understood that it was a very irrational thing to inquire about the net worth of this marquis, and the information leaking out of his mouth was enough to make his poor pocket money shameless.

So, a young man who had a good relationship with Bai Jiade changed the subject: "Dear marquis, what is the head of your bodyguard, what is he doing? Arrange security work? You are safe enough here, you don't need to add anything...... Of course, if you are used to being surrounded by a thousand soldiers of a private army on your own territory, then we can understand that. There was a curious look in his eyes.

Bai Jiade waved his hand gracefully: "Oh, no, dear, I don't value my life to the point of such perversion...... What is a man's life? I once fought a tiger with a dagger, and experienced the thrill of life and death, which is what a man should do. I don't value my surname, yes, that's right. ”

The crowd exclaimed, "God, you are fighting the tiger?" with a look of disbelief in their eyes.

Bai Jiade handed the staff to the 'black devil' soldier behind him, and slowly unbuttoned his shirt, and the terrible scars concocted by the master of disguise appeared in front of the young people. Bai Jiade looked conceited: "Yes, I lay in my hospital for a month, and the poor little flower cat was cut off by me. ”

Bai Jiade covered his clothes, and the boy's buddies applauded with envy and longing, and then, it was the same guy just now: "So, why do you want to rearrange the security guards? You see, we don't even have a bodyguard around, and Paris is a safe place." ”

Bai Jiade took the cane, danced a cane lightly, and at the same time showed his advanced attainment in foil, raised his head slightly, and said: "I, I'm going to hold a big dinner party in these days, yes, a grand event that will officially introduce me to the social world of Paris, and if possible, I will invite all the celebrities to appear......"

The childe buddy opened his mouth slightly, his eyes widened, and he made a meaningful voice: "Oh......"

Bai Jiade bowed slightly: "I understand, I don't have any popularity or influence in Paris, but I have a group of dear friends like you, don't I? You will help me, won't you?

The boy was amused and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, of course we will help you, why not? We are friends, and we are also happy to see the celebrities of Paris gather together, this will definitely be the most attractive banquet of the year, according to your generosity, we believe that so." ”

Kane walked over slowly and reported, "Sir, according to your request, our company has mobilized two hundred security guards to be responsible for the security work of the banquet, and I have surveyed all the dead spots to ensure absolute safety. ”

According to the aristocratic habits, Bai Jiade nodded slightly to Kane, followed by an exaggerated fancy gesture: "Gentlemen, please come in, I have brought some wines, these wines are produced in my small workshop, you can try the flavor, it has just arrived today, I told them to choose the best goods, I hope you can like it...... By the way, these wines used to be only tasted by my family, but now, I want to promote them to the whole world, you know, you have to learn to manage them, so that they can flow for a long time, and the family history will not be overturned. ”

The boy's buddies let out an exclamation and followed Bai Jiade towards the house curiously, eager to taste the wine recommended by Bai Jiade.

Kane looked at this group of sons and daughters who didn't have any discernment with disdain, his head twisted to the east, and a thick killing intent slowly overflowed from his sharp eyes.

×××××××××××××××××××××

David came to Yi Chen's Chinatown alone and secretly, the previous Chinatown was abandoned because Yi Chen personally threw a bomb to cheat a huge amount of insurance, and now it has long been abandoned, and now a luxury entertainment city is being built, of course, the boss is still Yi Chen. The current Chinatown is just a signboard of Chinatown, which is actually a luxury nightclub with a die-hard boss.

David looked at the food in front of him and couldn't help but feel a little angry. Yi Chen's so-called table of Italian food is two plates of macaroni.

Yi Chen smiled and gently rolled up a few vermicelli sticks with a fork: "Come, dear, you're welcome, eat, eat, just sent from a fast food restaurant, it tastes good." Taste, taste, in London, eating pasta, opportunities are few. ”

David grinned, didn't dare to refuse, and devoured a plate of vermicelli, David shook his head: "Sir, the fast food restaurant you patronize is definitely going to close down, the portion is too small, too little...... Oh. ”

Yi Chen took a bite, wiped his mouth with a napkin, and said with a smile: "I've been on a diet recently, yes, eating too much is not good for your health...... So, I ordered the children's menu, which may be a little less, but it just suited me perfectly. Where is Chekov?"

David's eyes widened: "I don't know, sir, I really don't know......"

Yi Chen held the knife and fork in both hands, and gently made them hit each other: "David, oh, dear David, you don't know? God, your men took Chekov, and you actually told me: 'I don't know where poor Chekov is...... 'Damn God, you're kidding me, my patience is limited, understand?'"

David raised his hands with an honest face: "Yi, don't get angry, listen to me." It wasn't my people in Europe who caught Chekov, my people didn't move so fast. It was the Tokyo Operations Group of the Asia Division who captured Chekov, and I just got the news from their heads...... You see, as soon as you say you want me to come over for dinner, I'll go and help you find out the news...... And it wasn't Mr. Chekov found by MI6, it was his own mistake. ”

Yi Chen whistled softly: "I'm listening, sir, go on." ”

David licked his lips: "Chekov bought marijuana at the hotel, and he was in contact with several drug dealers' affiliates, and the CIA had their eye on him...... Recently, some large quantities of marijuana were smuggled from Ben to San Francisco, and the CIA people were looking into these things, and then, Chekov was discovered. ”

Fei Li approached Yi Chen, gently rubbed his shoulder, and asked puzzledly, "So, how do you know the news?"

David smiled bitterly: "The patriarch of the Tokyo Action Group exchanges information with their people, this is our general practice, and we exchange information from time to time to see if it helps the other party, after all, our two countries are partners...... Chekov was thus exposed, and M directly ordered his arrest. ”

Yi Chen frowned: "Damn Chekov, I knew to ask him to go to Tokyo with a suitcase of marijuana." Now it's ...... You really don't know where he is?"

David nodded heavily: "Guess, it's just speculation...... It could be some military base near London, who knows? M is from the Ministry of Defense, she knows those generals very well, and it is too common for a few people to go to a military base. ”

Yi Chen was stunned for a while, and suddenly laughed: "Is there a military base......? Well, thank you, David...... Don't feel aggrieved, cooperate with me, you will definitely have benefits. I won't do anything too much, don't worry. ”

David could only smile wryly.

Yi Chen clapped his hands gently, and as if by magic, a row of neatly dressed black men held sterling silver plates and brought Italian dishes to the table, and the lights dimmed, Fili gently lit the silver candles on a dozen candle stands nearby, and from a corner of the restaurant, the ethereal music came slowly.

Yi Chenwei laughed, "I like to try aristocratic life occasionally, especially when one of my friends is playing with my money...... You see, Mr. David, as I said, I never break my word when it comes to Italian food...... Hopefully, that serving of macaroni didn't satisfy your appetite. ”

Fili gently placed a credit card beside David.

Yi Chen pointed and said: "The money in this is enough for you to go to a comfortable country to live a peaceful life after plastic surgery, I have always liked to give careful calculations to people who are serious about helping me, David, I said, it is very pleasant to cooperate with me...... Rest assured, in the unlikely event that you are exposed, I am confident that you will be able to leave the UK safely. ”

David smiled bitterly: "Then I will lose my honor." ”

Yi Chen said coldly: "You don't have any honor now, don't you? There are many things that you can't deal with, you don't need to blame yourself, in this world, your own interests are eternal, there are so many people who have betrayed your country inside, there is nothing to blame yourself, come, taste it...... This wine is made in the private workshop of an art collector and tastes no worse than the best French wines...... Of course, a couple of their brothers, now in Paris, may have been drunk. ”

David vaguely felt that Yi Chen had been hinting at something, but he didn't know what he was talking about...... Whatever, Yi won't be happy to get to the bottom of it himself...... Looking at the credit card, David actually began to think that Yi Chen was a lovely person, much cuter than Mr. Zhang, and David even began to appreciate Yi Chen. I really don't know what David would have thought if he knew that half of the money in the credit card was provided by Mr. Zhang.

××××××××××××××××××××××

M frowned in his office: "All the people from the 'Black Devil' security company went to Paris? to work as a security guard for an inexplicable aristocrat? The security fee is about five million dollars? In other words, you can't find out if they are suddenly missing fifty people?"

A senior agent looked at M with a wince: "Boss, we can call our colleagues in Paris ......"

M glared at him: "Fool, how far is Paris and Berlin? This distance is enough for them to replenish their manpower, and even more, and don't forget, that Colonel Kane has also passed...... Maybe I'm overthinking, why are they attacking houses in Tokyo? There is no benefit, and if they attack the vaults of Swiss banks, I would rather believe it. ”

Another agent from the Tokyo operation team rolled his eyes: "That house belongs to the name of Yamaguchimu, the leader of the Yamaguchi Group, maybe they are black?" And then the Chinese quickly sent everyone out to avoid being found out by us, and then replenished the manpower in Paris, forged documents, and pretended that nothing had anything to do with them?"

Another agent based in London refuted his claim: "Forget it, the Chinese and the Yamaguchi-gumi are partners, and so far they have not had any monetary exchanges, nothing worth eating for him." ”

M's brain hurt a little, and he waved his hand weakly: "Go to work, gentlemen, we seem to be occupied by too much energy by an underworld boss, maybe we are too allergic, this shouldn't be, understand......? God, we can't take up too much of our energy on one goal, and there is so much work around the world. Alright, let me be quiet for a moment, you guys go out to work, now!"

m carefully analyzed the information given to her by her subordinates, and found that everything seemed to be taken for granted, and there was nothing unreasonable. There was no reason for Yi Chen to kill the boss of the Yamaguchi-gumi, and there was no reason for the nobleman in Paris to cover Yi Chen, hire so many security guards, maybe he had to prepare for a big event, which was a common thing among those pompous nobles. Everything is normal, maybe he is really too allergic, Yi Chen has something to do with the Russians, don't put everything on him......

Taking a long breath, M smiled: "Well, dear Chekov, it's up to you what you can tell me." ”

But thinking about the reports of his subordinates, Chekov's behavior at the time of his last trial, M's head began to hurt again.

×××××××××××××××××××××××

In Paris, everything is fine for the banquet held by Bai Jiade, and in this society, the preparation for a large banquet is much simpler than a hundred years ago, no, just fifty years ago. At that time, everything needed to be transported from a distant place, which was time-consuming and laborious, and some people even spent a year or even two preparing a lavish banquet. And now? developed transportation dictates that as long as you have money, you can have everything ready in three days, and if you are very rich, then one day is enough.

What does a luxurious banquet need?

A mysterious owner, a rich one, a taste-looking one, and a very unique one, and preferably a noble, attractive identity...... White Guardian ticks all the boxes.

Then, there were the delicate utensils, which were not a problem at all, and for a hundred thousand dollars, Bai Jiade rented a set of silver from an old customer, which is said to be from the Holy Roman Empire. Of course, in case there is damage, the price of compensation is sky-high, and Bai Jiade promised a lot of additional benefits before the old guy agreed to lend it.

Then there is food, but who cares about food at this kind of social banquet? Who is not a big man who has tasted all kinds of rare food? Can you really find a dragon to entertain guests? Then, the food is not important at all, exquisite, hygienic, and good service, who will really come to the banquet to fill their stomachs?

Of course, food and drink are a must for the sake of etiquette, and they must not be too ugly, and if you only serve two slices of tofu and cheap champagne, the doors of Paris are completely closed to you.

So, knowing that the guests would not be interested in them, barrels of Australian oysters, South American lobsters, and even Chinese bird's nest and shark fin, countless treasured wines were delivered by special planes from all over the world.

Bai Jiade said to a boy next to him: "In ancient Rome, in order to eat a fresh and delicious fish, the slave would let the slave carry the wooden basin to the relay race, and run for two days and two nights to deliver the fish to his kitchen, when the fish was still beating...... We are not so ruthless, we need to pay a small amount of money, but we can enjoy more luxurious services than the Roman emperor. ”

A boy nodded again and again: "God, you are so knowledgeable." ”

Bai Jiade smiled modestly: "No, gentlemen, it's just because I live in a circle that needs to know this. In order to match one's identity, a little bit of unique knowledge is a must. ”

A large live camel from the Sahara was led to the backyard by Kane's subordinates, followed by a bull from Kobe, then a ram from the Tibetan Plateau in China, followed by a fat goose from the English countryside, a proud rooster from Germany, and a small pigeon from Italy.

Bai Jiade smiled and said, "Maybe this food I have prepared will be of interest to the guests, and in any case, a roasted camel will be a surprise." ”

The boys applauded, and then couldn't wait to rush out, driving their luxury sports cars to various clubs, and announcing the news of Bai Jiade's luxurious banquet as soon as possible.

A chef invited from a large hotel in an oasis in the Sahara stood respectfully beside Bai Jiade: "Sir, roasting camels takes three days and three nights on low fire, but the time is ......."

Bai Jiade looked at him: "Stupid, I don't mean to insult your traditional culture, but here I am, just follow my rules." The guests don't care how long your camel has been roasted, the parts are roasted separately, and at the end they are filled in, yes, do as I say, so that a day and a night will be enough at most, and then give you twelve hours...... Guests don't pay attention to the taste because they haven't eaten it, you know?"

The chef looked at Bai Jiade dumbfounded, and Bai Jiade helplessly signaled to the butler to stuff him with a stack of banknotes: "Sir, you just don't know how to be flexible, so you have been living in the desert...... Okay, listen to me, you can say I'm not a roasted camel, but who cares? You can just change his name if you can eat it, yes, for example, a convenient roasted camel?"

The chef was speechless, shook his head and walked towards the backyard.

Bai Jiade smiled proudly: "These brains, I can't do things until I point them out...... Send the invitation out, my dear...... You found me, and I played well. ”

The butler hit him mercilessly: "Honey, those people are too stupid......"

Bai Jiade muttered, "How can I say that? I'm a genius...... Hmph, although the deception does not fit my identity. I'm a marquis now......"

The butler ignored him and walked away.

××××××××××××××××××××

Two days later, at 7:00 p.m., Bai Jiade's lavish banquet began. Kane and they are all straight tuxedos, more than 200 big men are about the same height, politely patrol the inside and outside of the mansion, or help the guests park, their demeanor and demeanor cultivated through strict military training make all the guests invisibly feel the true aristocratic demeanor of Bai Jiade, the master.

As a true nobleman in the knowledge needed to behave, Bai Jiade was not at the gate of the courtyard, but on the steps of the banquet hall, with two butlers and six servants, and greeted the guests.

Bai Jiade was dressed in a black dress, steady and solemn, and the delicate silk flower on his left chest, as well as a thin silver chain of pocket watches extending from the buttons, and the naughty little cane in his hand, gave him a bit of firepower that a young man should have. His fair skin and long, powerful fingers show that he is a noble man who has not really done any physical work.

For any guest who comes, Bai Jiade can immediately judge their hobbies and personality according to their clothing and age, and then add a few words of horse flattery, so that all the guests are like a spring breeze, and Bai Jiade has a lot of good feelings.

"Ma'am, you are so beautiful tonight...... Oh, it's a shame that this pearl is on your body...... Your countenance belies all its brilliance, and it simply does not bring out your beauty...... Yes, you are so glorious, thank you for coming. ”

"Good evening, dear sir, and thank you for the light...... Oh, the work of the House is too well suited to a gentleman of your majesty, long live France......"

The housekeeper gently reminded the guests of their identities and names in the back, while Bai Jiade greeted the guests politely, one by one, perfect cooperation.

The waitress temporarily hired from several nearby five-star hotels, wearing uniform long skirts and holding various drinks in their hands, walked quietly back and forth in the hall.

The guests who arrived greeted others a little, and immediately naturally formed a small circle and talked to themselves. The Academy of Sciences, the Parliament, the Merchants, and the ancestors once had aristocratic titles, and this is the status quo in the social world. Even if you can set foot in the big circles of high society, you have to work hard to enter these small circles, and you have to choose which circles will welcome you, and which circles will not welcome you, and even be hostile to you.

For example, those big people whose ancestors once had the title of nobility have a certain kind of estrangement in their hearts about those big people in the parliament, after all, the glory of their ancestors is deprived by them.

Of course, there are exceptions, and some people are welcome in any circle. It's like the one who is coming in.

The security guard who greeted the guests said loudly, "Monsieur Saint-Lanlun has arrived." ”

St. Langlaine, yes, the drunken lad in Venice, who made Bai Jiade do anything here for a billion dollars, strode in with his weak blonde hair fluttering and his facial muscles a little twisted. An ordinary suit, but with his identity, this suit also brings a layer of brilliance.

Bai Jiade looked at him carefully, he also looked at Bai Jiade carefully, and then saluted each other.

"A very good night," said Bai Jiade, "a very good night, sir, isn't it?"

Saint Lanlun looked at Bai Jiade: "Yes, it is very beautiful. I hope it will be better in the future, sir, you have done a good job. ”

Bai Jiade smiled: "What did you say?"

Saint Lanlun nodded stiffly: "Yes, very good, I didn't say anything, sir, I'll see ......you later" Bai Jiade bowed slightly, Saint Lanlun returned a salute, and strode into the banquet hall.

Certain people are born with a dazzling brilliance that is enough to attract all those who are inferior to him. Saint-Lanlun is such a character, although in Yi Chen's mouth, he is evaluated as a loser, a villain who is blind for the sake of feelings, but among these upper-class people in Paris, he is a hot baby.

A tall and thin old man with the status of several honorary professors, who also served as the director of a laboratory at a certain university, and was also the dean of a certain college of that university, was the first to see St. Lanlun, and then the first to greet him: "Good evening, Mr. San Lanlun...... We are very grateful to you for your last donation to the scientific research fund, which has given us the financial resources to solve several big problems, and you have contributed to the scientific progress of France, sir. ”

Saint Lanlun smiled: "Professor Jersey, if there is a need, I will increase the investment of the fund...... Have you made any unusual discoveries lately?"

Professor Jersey hurriedly shook his head: "Sir, science is serious, there is nothing unusual about it, they exist there, just waiting for our discovery...... Yes, this is an objective truth, like the stars in the sky, although we cannot see them today, the clouds are too thick, but they must exist...... What we study, they also exist, yes, since ancient times......"

Saint Lanlun and Jersey quarreled, and the representatives of the various small circles in the vicinity were annoyed in their hearts, this old Jersey fellow, moved too fast. But it's rude to interrupt someone's conversation, how can someone like them make such a mistake?

The greeting man shouted loudly again: "Mr. Marshall Dale of the Dale family, together with Mrs. Martha Dale, Miss Alenza, and Master Viscoll have arrived. ”

Bai Jiade was in good spirits, ha, it's perfect, the protagonist is there.

Mr. Dale was a tall, deep-eyed old fellow, and his wife was still charming, with a long skirt followed by a few faint ornaments, and Alensa, the target of the White Gard, was no more than one hundred and sixty-five centimeters tall, with a delicate and weak body, and a waist that could be broken, a long white gauze dress, long hazel hair, a delicate and beautiful face, and a small bouquet of lilies in her hand; as for Viskol, a young child, who looked fifteen or sixteen years old.

Bai Jiade greeted him, and a flood of beautiful words poured into Mr. and Mrs. Daile, for Alensa, he only lightly complimented two sentences, and even said more to Vescol than to Alenza.

The people in the hall involuntarily moved towards the door, the Dai Le family, especially Mr. Dai Le, is still a big man with a strong potential power in the political arena, but he can't be neglected, the infinite invisible interests are on his body, and even the air near his body seems to have the smell of power and wealth.

The young boys are different, what they are looking forward to is to dance with Alenza, to be able to hug her waist, who makes her an iceberg beauty? It is said that no one has been able to impress her heart. As for Viscol, an insignificant little cub, no one wants to pay attention to him.

Saint Lanlun had already secretly hid in the corner of the hall, regardless of his identity, he picked up a bottle of red wine and took a few sips, Alan Sha's casual eyes glanced at him, and both of them avoided each other's gaze as if they were being stabbed by scorpions.

Bai Jiade looked at this scene curiously, secretly became an observer, and at the same time used his brain full of artist temperament, and began to think about what happened between the two: "Could it be that Saint Lanlun was forcibly annihilated by Allenza? and then ruthlessly abandoned, otherwise, how could he hate her so much? God, forgive me, this is something that only Mr. Yi and them think, and a person as elegant as me would not think like this...... It was the devil who tempted me, but it wasn't my intention. ”

The housekeeper gently tapped Bai Jiade's back, signaling that all the guests had arrived, Bai Jiade smiled and looked at Dai Le: "Sure enough, it's a big shot, I have to be the last to appear, hehe, but it's not tired to pretend like this?"

All the guests consciously looked at Bai Jiade, Dai Le also smiled generously and stood aside with his family, Bai Jiade's enthusiastic but not sensual flattery just now made him very useful, and now his heart is still warm, this young man is worth socializing, he is a reasonable character, maybe you can help him a little.

Bai Jiade modestly walked to the center of the hall, picked up a glass of red wine, and said in the classical French: "Gentlemen, let me express my gratitude for your presence...... I'm just a young man who has just entered Paris, and it's a privilege for you to see it. ”

A whole set of polite words came out, Bai Jiade was desperately trying his best to lower his identity anyway, but he did not degrade it to the extent that it made people feel contrived, and at the same time, he slapped everyone present on the back lightly, as if they were all social elites and pillars of the world, although from the perspective of identity, these people are indeed were.

Bai Jiade raised his glass, and the guests raised their glasses, signaled to each other, and drank them all.

According to the usual practice, Bai Jiade should say the words to let everyone move freely, let the individual enjoy himself according to his preferences, and then Bai Jiade, as the host, will visit the distinguished people among the guests one by one under the leadership of a few guides, that is, those sons, and brothers, which is the meaning of the social banquet.

But Beagle defied common sense, and he smiled and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, I have prepared something special for you, and I think that few people in the modern city of Paris would do this, right? ”

The guests were interested, chirping and following Bai Jiade towards the backyard, very strange, Alensa, who usually didn't like the excitement, dragged her mother to the front, and Saint Lanlun, who was a young man, pulled at the end.

In the backyard, the guests exclaimed in amazement, and a few sons and daughters couldn't stop saying, "Aha, do you see it? Gentlemen, this is what we said, but at that time, how many people believed it? Look, is it spectacular?"

On the huge oak shelf, a huge peeled camel emitted an attractive fragrance, with the rotation of several big men, slowly the whole shelf drove the camel to rotate, and a drop of yellow grease dripped into the coals below, making a snorting sound, and the small flames flashed away.

The guests applauded softly and shook their heads slightly to express their appreciation for the scene. In particular, those big men were only wearing a pair of leather shorts, revealing the extremely strong muscles on their bodies, and they had some quaint and mysterious demeanor.

Several women in Islamic robes slowly stepped out of the shadows of the trees in the backyard, followed by several crive-nosed, yellow-skinned, rough-skinned creatures with long crescent-shaped scimitars. The woman held a huge silver tray with a simple pattern on it, and the slightly worn body of the plate testified to their antiquity and preciousness.

The well-paid cooks quickly and skillfully cut open the camel's belly, and a few big men helped to take out the calf with a fork, and then cut open the cow's belly and took out the ram inside...... Until finally the grease-soaked baked egg was removed.

Several of the Parisian high society figures looked at each other, some of whom had tasted such a feast in the Middle East, and naturally knew that the egg would be offered to the most honorable of those present...... So, to whom would Bai Jiade give this egg? Whichever one he gave it to, he was extremely favored by that person, but he definitely aroused the hatred of several other people. As long as those pervasive tabloid reporters add a little oil and vinegar, it will not take twelve hours, and the whole of Europe will know that in the mind of the Marquis of XX, XX is more noble than other XX...... So, what exactly are the differences? Is there going to be some change in their political careers, or what is going to happen to their businesses?

Even, perhaps, among themselves, will leave some kind of unhappiness because of this egg, right?

Several big people looked at each other, their minds churning...... Damn Bai Jiade, why is he preparing this thing? Who does he want to give it to? Is he going to eat it himself? Then it's rude to the extreme.

Bai Jiade picked up the fragrant egg with a silver fork and walked to Dai Le's side. Dai Le's heart was slightly filled with a hint of joy, good boy, I remember you, if there is a chance in the future, I will take care of you.

The other big names changed their faces almost immediately, not knowing what they were thinking. In their minds, they don't seem to be much worse than Dai Le, right?

Dale was ready to take the fork and take a bite, but Bai Jiade handed the fork to Viscoll.

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and Viscol was also stunned, looking at the fork in his hand and thinking, can you eat such an egg? It seems that the people around me don't want to eat it, this guy deliberately embarrassed me and deliberately gave it to me, is it my best bully?

Bai Jiade said loudly: "Gentlemen, this egg is for the most distinguished guests present. However, I really cannot favor one over the other, and it seems to me that all guests are equally noble, so why should I deliberately distinguish between those who deserve respect and those who do not? Gentlemen, I can only dedicate him to Mr. Viscol...... He's young, he's energetic, he's noble-born, he's a symbol of the future of the French Republic, isn't he, the best person to enjoy this egg?"

Dai Le laughed and applauded vigorously, and the other big men also showed a knowing smile and applauded vigorously. Ha, boy, yes, a character worth cultivating...... But what do you do if Viscol isn't there?

Viscoll licked his lips and stared at the barbecue on the silver plate: "Oh my God, this egg is too greasy, but it tastes good, well, good...... So this meat should be tastier, right? This guy isn't teasing me. ”

The banquet went smoothly and successfully, and as those boys and buddies privately expected, Bai Jiade became the first person to dance with Alan Sha, and at the same time, the last ......

Bai Jiade no longer needs to be introduced by those boys, he has left a deep impression on these big people, he has successfully taken the first step, Dai Le can't stop discussing some strange problems with him, and then marvel at Bai Jiade's erudition in art, language, history, and economy, so that several big people next to him are greatly amazed.

Chekov, who was far away from the military base in London, also slowly opened his eyes, and in front of him, there was a cup of cold coffee and two buns, nothing more. Sometimes people's encounters really make you feel emotional......
