In addition to the three main gates and four aristocratic families, there are also some local small forces in the second row. Generally speaking, they all exist attached to the big forces in the first row.
Among them, there were some embarrassing situations, that is, several small forces didn't dare to come up and say hello to Chu Yun, the new shopkeeper.
Not because they had a bad relationship with Yuanhe Pavilion, but precisely because they used to be an affiliated force of Yuanhe Pavilion. During the period when Yuanhe pavilion was in trouble, they chose to leave and take refuge in other forces. Now, facing a new Yuanhe Pavilion, they naturally dare not come forward again.
Chu Yun glanced at those people, but there was no other emotion. There were grass on the wall everywhere. It was not rare. Although he didn't look up to such a force, he wouldn't be hostile.
Of course
Not all the strength once attached to Yuanhe pavilion have betrayed other forces. Among them, there are a small part that has not been changed.
These forces, of course, seemed very excited at the dinner. They ran to Chu Yun, the new shopkeeper, and made all kinds of loyal remarks. They looked like they could be killed by Yuanhe Pavilion at any time.
But in fact, Chu Yun also knows that the reason why these people didn't betray, perhaps just because they were hesitating, or maybe they just didn't find a suitable home, doesn't mean how loyal they are to Yuanhe Pavilion. In fact, Yuanhe pavilion under the leadership of Li family is not worthy of loyal treatment.
However, even if he thought so, Chu Yun still responded kindly to the leaders of these forces. After all, things on the scene still need to be maintained.
In this way, as time goes by, the sky is getting late, and all the forces that have changed to the scene have come at the moment. In addition to the local forces of Yuanhe Pavilion, there is a row of seats on the side of the chairman's seat, which are specially prepared to entertain those distinguished guests from outside the great city of Linghai.
Dong! Bang——
At quarter past eight, a melodious bell rang in the city Lord's house.
People who have been in Linghai city for a period of time will not be unfamiliar with this time. At this moment, they stand up one after another.
Chu Yun slowed down, but also stood up with the people. Beside him, shopkeeper Yang whispered, "it's three minutes before Xu, which is the time when the city Lord was born, so every birthday party, the city Lord will come out at this time, and the dinner party will officially begin at this time."
"I see."
Chu Yun nodded, then followed everyone's eyes and saw a powerful figure walking slowly inside the city master's house.
The man didn't wear any special clothes, but an ordinary blue dress, which was much simpler than the gorgeous clothes of many distinguished guests at the banquet.
However, the old man's magnanimity is extraordinary. An aura that those who have been in the upper position for a long time are not angry and self powerful, and can control the thunder and determine the lives of thousands of people has sprung up spontaneously.
This person is the leader of the huge city of Linghai, the domain leader of Linghai, and the strong person of nirvana——
Qin Wuji.
"Congratulations on your father's 100th birthday. I congratulate my father!"
Qin Shuangyan was the first to go forward. As the son of the city Lord, only he was qualified.
"Yes."
Qin Wuji nodded calmly, walked to the center of the banquet, met the eyes of the people, and said in a deep voice: "today, I'm lucky to have many heroes and talents in Linghai giant city to celebrate my bad old man's birthday. Qin Wuji is very pleased."
"Congratulations to the city Lord!"
Everyone raised their glasses and shouted.
In the cheers, Qin Wuji came to the Lord's seat and sat down. At the same time, firecrackers exploded around the city master's house, and bright fireworks rose into the sky, illuminating half the night sky. Around the garden, there were also teams of colorful maidens, like butterflies flying, entering the banquet scene.
Dinner, officially started.
The three maids headed by the head held a huge plate with a bowl of golden soup covered by a cover made of glass.
They came to Qin Shuangyan. Qin Shuangyan immediately stood up, lifted the cover, carried the bowl of soup with his own hands and came to Qin Wuji.
"Father, this soup is made by a child who went deep into the evil spirit mountain, hunted and killed an old turtle with a thousand years of life, and refined it with its blood essence. Although it is not a life prolonging treasure, it is also quite miraculous!"
Qin Shuangyan knelt in front of Qin Wuji on one knee, holding the bowl of turtle soup in both hands, and said obediently.
"Good boy."
Qin Wuji nodded, took the bowl of turtle soup and drank it all in one gulp.
There was a burst of admiration all around. They were saying that the city Lord was blessed. There was such a filial son, a millennium spirit turtle, whose grade was definitely comparable to more than four grades in the mountain and sea. Qin Shuangyan did not hesitate to take risks in order to make his father drink a mouthful of spirit soup. It was really heartfelt and filial.
But
People with a clear eye can see that Qin Shuangyan's bowl of soup just gives them a head.
Next, the birthday gift should be sent up.
The first one to get up was Wang Zhihong, the leader of the Wang family of the four aristocratic families in Linghai Jucheng. He took out a gold silk robe from his suitcase. All the materials of the whole dress were made of gold silk, and it didn't look like ordinary gold silk. The colors on it were specially combined, which happened to be a pattern of array pattern.
"In order to celebrate the centenary of the city Lord, our Wang family paid a high price and collected such a bright gold silk robe from the North mansion of the town. The grade of this robe can be imported into the ground and high-grade“
Holding such a treasure, Wang Zhihong came to Qin Wuji.
There were shouts all around.
Especially those who came from small forces are very jealous.
A high-level treasure coat of local products can completely match a strong person in the mountain and sea. Although it may not play a great role in Qin Wuji, it can be regarded as a very good treasure if it is given to anyone under Qin Wuji.
Because it seems that the physical realm corresponds to ordinary products, the critical realm corresponds to spiritual products, the ten thousand stone realm corresponds to local products, and the mountain and sea realm corresponds to heavenly products, but in fact, this is not the case.
In this world, the resources of magic tools or foreign objects are not so abundant.
Many strong people in the mountain and sea environment who have scattered cultivation don't even have a treasure at the level of land products. They can only use the weapon of spiritual products to make a living. Those who can use land products and treasures in the 10000 stone environment are definitely from extraordinary backgrounds, while the high-level and leisure mountain and sea environment of land products are not worthy to have at all.
Qin Wuji, as the domain master of Linghai sea area, his most famous weapon is just a dayangfeng magic sword of Tianpin level. In addition, there is no second Tianpin treasure.
Thus, it is enough to show how high the value of this high-grade Ming gold silk robe presented by Wang Zhihong is. It can be said that it is out of blood.
Sure enough
As soon as the treasure was sent out, Qin Wuji's face was much kinder on the spot. He nodded to Wang Zhihong and said, "the weight of this gift is not light."
"No matter where, no matter how good the treasure is, it's not a heavy gift on the centenary of the city Lord!"
Wang Zhihong smiled and flattered.
The host and the guest enjoyed each other.
On the other hand, after Wang Zhihong went down, Zhu Hongyue didn't want to fall behind. Holding a box, he came to the city master and looked at it. There was a carved jade bamboo inside. It didn't look like it was newly carved. It's been a long time.
As soon as this item came out, many people raised their eyebrows, which seemed a little surprised, because according to their observation, although the jade bamboo is well carved, its material is not special, and it is not too precious jade. The city Lord likes bamboo, but the gift is too light?
"My Lord, this jade carving looks ordinary, but in fact, the person who carved it is extraordinary. It was made by a national teacher. It was his work before he became an official in his early years. Please taste it!"
Zhu Hongyue smiled and sent the jade carving to Qin Wuji.
"... was it really done by the national master?"
When Qin Wuji heard the word "National Teacher", he obviously looked solemn. When he looked at the jade carving, his eyes were a little different. After taking it over and observing it carefully, he couldn't help nodding and said, "yes, it's really from the national teacher. It's rare, rare!"
The voice fell, and everyone looked at each other at the banquet, especially those who felt that Zhu Hongyue's gift was too light, which was even more shocked and speechless.
The object that can be related to the Zhenguo national teacher of the Tianji Dynasty, let alone a jade carving carved by himself, even a hair, is worthy of careful treatment by everyone. In particular, Qin Wuji likes bamboo. This jade carving can be said to have been sent to the heart of the city Lord.
"Shuangyan, please go down and put this jade carving in my study. I want to watch it day and night."
Qin Wuji said faintly.
"Yes, father."
Qin Shuangyan nodded, took the jade carving respectfully with both hands, and personally sent it to the study.
The important thing is not the jade carving itself, nor the bamboo, but Qin Wuji's attitude towards the outside world. Standing in a good team is more important than anything. Now, the coarsest thigh above the chaotang is undoubtedly the national teacher's. Qin Wuji's doing so is helpful for him to get close to the national teacher.
"This woman can't be underestimated..."
The owner of the Zhang family couldn't help shaking his head. He spent so much money. He thought he could crush the heroes on his birthday. Unexpectedly, he was compared with Zhu Hongyue's jade carving.
Seeing Zhu Hongyue's satisfied wriggling back, Chu Yun was ready to get up and send out the Juling gem prepared by Yuanhe Pavilion.
However, as soon as he got up, sun Shaoyang, the master of the sun family opposite, had already stood up first and came to the city master with big steps.
"Lord, in order to celebrate your centenary, our Sun family has specially prepared a precious treasure, which is a 300 year old Juling jade. Please taste it!"
Sun Shaoyang said and opened the box. A fist sized Juling precious jade was lying quietly inside, emitting a strong aura, which made everyone look at it.
In terms of value alone, this 300 year old Juling precious jade is not inferior to the Ming gold silk robe sent by Wang Zhihong, and even more practical.
Seeing this, many people can't help but scold secretly in their hearts. How come one or two people are so cruel, and the value of the things they send out is so high, doesn't it hurt?
Sun Shaoyang's heart doesn't hurt. Chu Yun doesn't know.
But what he knew was that shopkeeper Yang around him had a broken mind and his face was ugly.
Because
The gift crashed. The sun family gave Juling Baoyu, and Yuanhe Pavilion also gave Juling Baoyu.
The embarrassing point is that the Juling jade sent by the sun family is 300 years old, while the Juling jade sent by Yuanhe Pavilion is only 100 years old.
As the saying goes, you don't have to be afraid of bumping clothes. Whoever is ugly is embarrassed. Now Yuanhe Pavilion is the clown, who is embarrassed to death.
If it hadn't been for the fault of the sun family, the Juling precious jade they sent out was not the best among all the treasures, but it was definitely not bad.
But now, the sun family sent out a better Juling precious jade than Yuanhe Pavilion. This gift of Yuanhe Pavilion is not so easy to send out.
Shame!
"... the damn Sun family is trying to embarrass us!"
Shopkeeper Yang tightened his cheek and whispered.
"I see."
Chu Yun nodded and said, "just now, sun Shaoyang saw that I was going to give gifts, so he got up quickly and grabbed in front of me. This is intentional. And he must know what we're going to give. That's why he chose such a 300 year old Juling precious jade. We can't give it. "
Shopkeeper Yang's face became more ugly and said, "the things we want to send are prepared by our men. Although they are not confidential, not many people know. Someone in Yuanhe Pavilion leaked the news. When I go back, I must find out the ghost. Damn it, damn it!"
"Let's talk about going back. First think about how to get through this level."
Chu Yun shook his head.
