Chapter 623: An early opening gift

Meng Fei and Yin Xu both stood up and looked at the door, only to see two rows of about thirty or forty Sea Clan soldiers, holding long forks, lined up in two columns outside the door.

A well-dressed middle-aged sea clan, with a smile on his face, was followed by seven or eight coolies who carried several large boxes on their shoulders.

"The contemptible person is the natural port lord Ge Li, and all the immortal masters came from afar, and they didn't even know it, and please forgive the contemptible person for the crime of losing welcome. When the middle-aged sea clan entered the door, he clasped his fists and saluted everyone.

Listening to his conversation, it is similar to the customs of the Heavenly Dao Alliance, and it seems that he is also a sea clan who has seen the world. And he was dressed in neat shoes and clothes, not bare-chested and bare-chested like other sea tribes, and even barefoot.

Meng Fei walked out and said: "Lord Gecheng is polite, our original plan was to go directly to Xinzhou." It's just that I stopped here temporarily because of an accident on the way, so I didn't plan to bother you. ”

"Hehe, who is this?" asked Gerry politely.

Yin Xu replied on the side: "He is Teacher Meng, the chief teacher of the Tactics Department of the Wenxin Academy, and he is also the leader of this trip. However, when he arrives in the Divine Dragon Kingdom, Teacher Meng will be promoted to Meng Sacrifice Wine. ”

"Oh, Teacher Meng and his entourage, are you going to the Divine Dragon Kingdom to open a branch of the Inquiry Academy?" asked Gerry.

The sacrificial wine is the meaning of the principal of the academy and the academy, so as soon as Ge Li heard Yin Xu's words, he knew the purpose of everyone.

His question made Meng Fei and the others puzzled. Since he didn't know what he was going to do, what did he come to politely?

As for how he knew the identities and whereabouts of the people, it was not a problem. Because when all the teachers stayed in the inn, they all reported their origins in a bright and bright way. As the lord of the city, it is reasonable for Gerry to learn the news.

It's just that although Tianshenggang is not particularly prosperous, there should be a lot of merchants who come and go every day, how could he come to welcome his party? Could it be that the face of the Asking Heart Courtyard is already so big, even the people on this overseas island want to stammer?

"Exactly. We were invited by the Dragon Sect Master to open a branch in the Dragon Kingdom. Meng Fei replied.

Gerry saluted again, "Then I wish you all the best for the immortal masters." Come on, bring me my gift to the Inquiry Temple!"

The coolies who followed him carried the box into the hall and opened it in the open space.

Suddenly, there was a burst of jewelry, dazzling everyone's eyes. In several boxes, there are huge pearls, gorgeous corals, and a variety of sea specialties, such as dragon shrimp brains, dried crab shark fins, and so on.

These things, if they were in the mortal world, would be worth a lot. However, for the ascetic, it has little practical value. Except for some special products such as the Dragon Festival, which may be used as alchemy materials, the others can only be regarded as playthings and delicacies.

It seems that Ge Li is also very self-aware, and after showing the gifts to everyone, he said humbly: "A little meager thing, just a little expression, and please don't shirk it." It just so happened that the pearl coral and other things in it were regarded as my congratulatory gifts to the Branch, and the immortal masters used them to decorate and decorate them, and also let me get some brilliance. ”

"Lord Katsuragi doesn't have to be like this, we appreciate your kindness, let's take these things back. Meng Fei frowned slightly.

It's not that he refuses these things because of their value, but because of Gray's behavior, which seems a little inexplicable, and he has no reason to accept these gifts.

Gerry smiled: "Presumably Mr. Meng blames me for being abrupt, hehe, in fact, I'm not abrupt." Teacher Meng, listen to me, the young chief of my family is studying in your hospital, and you are all his teachers. How can I not show respect for you teachers passing by me?"

Everyone suddenly realized, among them, Chen Hao and Meng Fei knew that during the 900th anniversary celebration last year, a young chief of the Hai Clan went to the Wenxin Academy to study. It turns out that it is the young chief of the Fit Island Sea Clan.

This matter is just that the two have not been connected for a while.

"That being said, Lord Katsuragi, we came uninvited, we were already harassing, and the gifts really don't need it. Meng Fei said.

Ge Li showed a sad expression, lowered his voice and said to Meng Fei: "Teacher Meng, you have to think about it for me." Think about it, the chief of my family knows that all the immortal masters have passed through me, and I have neglected it, and my position will be a little unreliable in the future!"

Chen Hao listened to it funny, this Ge Li seems to be an official oil, and his words are half-truths and half-truths, which makes it difficult to refuse. Speaking of which, being able to give gifts is often a kind of ability.

The impression that the sea clan gave to Chen Hao was all rough and mighty, so at first glance, Chen Hao would find it interesting when he saw Ge Li's deputy officialdom.

"This ...... All right. Meng Fei immediately didn't want to continue to refute.

Ge Li has said everything about this, if he doesn't accept his gifts, it seems that it will hurt him, how can Meng Fei continue to refuse?

With a little trickery, he dealt with Meng Fei, and Ge Li must have been very happy in his heart.

Of course, he didn't show the slightest smug look on his face, and he still said cautiously and respectfully: "Immortal masters, it's getting late today, I won't bother anymore, you have a good night's rest first." Tomorrow, I will set up a banquet to entertain everyone, in order to fulfill the friendship of the landlord. ”

The gifts were all accepted, and it seemed that there was nothing to eat again, so Meng Fei had to agree to it.

After Ge Li left, Meng Fei said to everyone: "It's okay, the academy has not yet been established, and we have received the first congratulatory gift, and it seems that our trip will be very smooth." ”

These gifts are miscellaneous, and they are not easy to distribute directly to the teachers, so they are suitable as public gifts for the college that has not yet opened.

Besides, the teachers will not take a fancy to these belongings, just take out some spirit stones, like this ordinary pearl coral, you can exchange them for several large boxes.

Early the next morning, Gerry arranged for someone to wait at the inn.

After receiving the protection of the teachers and their entourage disciples, Ge Li personally went out and took everyone to visit several famous places near Tiansheng Port, and then set up a very characteristic seafood banquet in the "Wenchao Pavilion" at noon to entertain everyone.

Gerry can be regarded as an outlier among the Sea Clan, no wonder he was able to obtain the position of the City Lord of the Born Harbor. He acted properly and cautiously, and only a sea clan of his character was suitable for dealing with many ordinary human races.

Whether it's a gift or a treat, he does it just right, so people can't fault the slightest mistake. For this kind of temporary thing, Gray's method of dealing with it can be regarded as very clever.

On the third day, the longstring had been repaired, and the whale had been purchased. With Gree's farewell, the crowd left the beautiful harbor and continued on their way.
