Chapter 829: Hosting A Banquet In The Ramadan Building
Onizuka Twenty-Three came to the gate of Andinghou's Mansion and handed over an invitation to the porter.
But the concierge first looked at Onitsuka Twenty-Three, then flipped through the small notebook in his sleeve, then sat back slowly and drank tea.
Seeing this situation, Onitsuka Twenty-Three spoke in Central Plains dialect with a taste of Dazuo; "I want to meet the Marquis of Anding County, please inform me."
The concierge looked up at Onitsuka Twenty-Four, and said lazily; "There are not many people in Chu who want to see my Lord Hou, and Lord Hou is very busy on weekdays. It was a mere envoy from your vassal state who said See you soon?"
Seeing the concierge's arrogance, Onitsuka Twenty-Four couldn't help but turn green with anger, but he still pretended to be calm and asked, "Then when will Lord Hou have time to see me?"
The concierge glanced at Onitsuka Twenty-Four Road; "That depends on your performance."
Onitsuka Twenty-Four was stunned when he heard this. He was waiting for the Marquis of Anding County, but if the Marquis of Anding County wants to see him, he still needs to see his performance. What's wrong with this?
The concierge saw Onitsuka Twenty-Four's brainlessness, so he couldn't help saying: "Talk about your small country, but you just don't understand etiquette. I have to go to the inner house to report, but I have to walk a long way, and my legs will be sore. After returning Or drink tea to soothe, why are you so ignorant?"
As a capable concierge, as a moral concierge, as a concierge out of vulgar taste, he naturally knows who to mess with and who not to mess with.
Lord Hou is very tolerant and honest to most of the people in his country, especially to the people of his country, most of them have no problem, just report directly.
And in the same way, Hou Ye changed from his usual honesty to everyone except the Central Plains, and became more profiteers and profiteers.
Just like Agula last time, would you still want to see Lord Hou without sending some generous gifts?
That is simply want to fart.
And although the treasure that the Japanese gave yesterday was much more than that given by Agula back then, the deep disgust on Lord Hou's face after the Japanese left is something he will never forget in his life.
He had never seen Lord Hou loathe a person so much, it could even be called disgusting.
For such a person like Lord Hou who wants to be hypocritical, his concierge naturally asks for as much favor as he can. This is also a tacit source of extra money for the concierge of a wealthy family.
They will all have a special notebook, who can stop, who can't stop, who can ask for money, he remembers clearly.
In his opinion, this Japanese man is quite ignorant. He is not as good as the one who came with him last time. I don't want to give a penny!
She has no eyesight!
Onitsuka Twenty-Four was only awakened by the concierge until now, but he still gritted his teeth and said, "The Marquis of Anding County is the person appointed by His Majesty to receive our Japanese envoys! You are so good at blackmail, don't be afraid..."
Before Onitsuka could finish his twenty-four words, a note was handed to him.
Onitsuka Twenty-Four was slightly taken aback looking at the paper that looked like a map: "What is this?"
The concierge said: "The optimal route from Andinghou's Mansion to Taiji Palace, please file a complaint."
Onitsuka Twenty-Four: "..."
The concierge sat beside him and said sarcastically; "Back then, if you wanted to enter the gate of Andinghou Mansion, you were as strong as the grassland, and you had to obediently offer benefits. You, an envoy of a subordinate country, dared to be so ignorant of the rules. The grassland has now been destroyed by our state of Chu. what about you?"
As soon as these words came out, the threat became stronger. If you don't abide by the rules of my Andinghou Mansion, believe it or not, Chu State will destroy you?
But I have to admire the forbearance of the Japanese people is quite strong, forcibly endured the cynicism of the concierge, and reluctantly handed over ten taels of silver to the concierge.
This made the concierge look sideways, how could the little Japanese slave swallow his anger so much?
The concierge who got the benefits naturally stopped his cynicism towards the Wa country, and walked towards the gate of the inner courtyard.
Xu Qing just finished practicing with Su Qian and was teasing Xiao Ning'er with Xiao Ruxue. Of course, he just learned the basic skills in the yard, not any other internal skills.
After learning from Xuan'er that the concierge came to report, she walked out.
After leaving the inner house, the porter led the way, Xu Qing asked, "How about Deputy Onizuka?"
The concierge said respectfully: "As expected, as Lord Hou said, the people of the Japanese country are really good at forbearance. Under the cynicism, instead of leaving, they chose to swallow their anger for the time being."
Xu Qing nodded and said, "You did a good job, I know."
The concierge said respectfully; "Thank you, Lord Marquis, for your compliment."
After Xu Qing came out, he saw Onizuka Twenty-Four, with a smile on his face, and said, "So it's the deputy envoy of Onizuka. I haven't seen you for a long time. I don't know why I came here suddenly today?"
Onitsuka Twenty-Four handed over the invitation and said: "Today, our country is hosting a banquet in the Ramadan Tower, and I invite the Lord Hou to honor it."
Xu Qing said: "If you don't get paid for nothing, why invite me?"
Onizuka twenty-four said: "I have a lot of matters to report to His Majesty the Emperor during my trip here, so naturally I have to bother Lord Hou a lot. Be careful, it's not a respect."
Xu Qing said: "Your country is much more generous than the grasslands. It really is a country that understands etiquette. Your country is so kind, and this Marquis should be more respectful than obedient."
Onizuka Twenty-Four One bowed and said, "Then today at noon, I will wait for Lord Hou to visit at the Ramadan Building."
After Onizuka Twenty-Four left, the smile on Xu Qing's face disappeared, replaced by undisguised disgust.
However, a meal in the Ramadan Building is not cheap, and he will not eat it for nothing, and he also has a big gift for these Japanese envoys.
...
noon
Ramadan floor
Fortunately, it is now autumn, and even the midday sun is scorching.
Xu Qing sat in the carriage and arrived at the Ramadan Tower on time.
Behind Xu Qing was Wei Xiong who had already changed into a entourage.
Saburo Inoue booked Room No. 1 in the Ramadan Building.
Originally, he wanted to book Tianzi No. 1 room in order to express his sincerity to the Marquis of Anding County, but the shopkeeper of the Ramadan Tower did not agree at all.
A small affiliated country wants to eat in their Tianzi No. 1 room?
Wouldn't it lower their status in Tianzi No. 1 room?
If Tianzi No. 1 room was held by these dwarves for a banquet, which rich and powerful would book Tianzi No. 1 room in the future?
So in desperation, Saburo Inoue could only book the No. 1 room.
When Xu Qing came to Dizi No. 1 room, Inoue Saburo and other Japanese envoys were already standing in the room waiting.
Xu Qing took the first seat unceremoniously, then waved his hand and said, "Everyone who comes is a guest, please sit down."
