"Sister Hubo, sister Hubo, what are you doing? I can't even get through this..." Zijuan used her butt to push away Hubo, who was dazed in the way, and squeezed past with the abalone that had been soaked for a long time.
Only then did Amber realize that she had lost her composure, and quickly put on a smiling face, "Oh, I'm just doing math in my head, counting how many bowls, chopsticks, and spoons there are... Okay, stop blocking the road, I'll let someone move it!"
The whole back house suddenly became busy, the aroma of frying was fragrant, and cold dishes were served one after another. When Huniu walked around the entrance door, she found that there had been chaos in front, and these drunkards were showing off with Dried fruits for wine!
Peanuts with skin, chestnuts, pine nuts, jujubes, and walnuts are the dried fruits that old Beijingers serve before a banquet! This thing is not a dish to go with wine at all, it is just for guests to chat and relieve their boredom while waiting for the table to begin!
Eat some melon seeds and dried fruits, drink some tea, chat and kill some time. After the cold dishes are served, the host invites us to start the banquet!
But no one cares about these old-timers today. They are all the top officials in the Chinese clan, all of them are lords with titles, but now they have become the coolies of the second meat shop!
At this time, no one was willing to drink the sweet red wine or the warm yellow rice wine. Everyone replaced it with Jingshi Liquor Erguotou!
There was no breath in the middle of the bowl, and the dried fruits on the table were in a mess. Long Ye, Luo Huo, Xiang Ying and others, as well as Hyoutaro and Nohira, were all crazy with joy. They had eaten three bowls without eating anything!
Even the female generals such as Chun Shisanniang and Cai Bixia drank a full bowl of melon seeds!
There were all kinds of dried fruits rolling on the table and on the floor. Everyone raised their wine glasses and shouted at Xiao Letian, "After finishing this bowl, respect the head of state and all our Chinese people!"
"Ah... so happy!" Luo Huo wiped off the wine stains on his beard and said with tears in his eyes, "I think about how difficult it was when we were running the Tanggu Special Economic Zone!"
"Everything must be done by hand. There are bastards everywhere who want to harm us! Even a few landlords who are stupid because of their studies dare to challenge us!"
"Do you still remember Huang Juren? And his idiot nephew Huang Xiucai? They were just things the size of bed bugs, and they caused us a lot of trouble at that time!"
"Inciting the ignorant people to cause chaos, causing all the businessmen to run into each other, even the smallest piece of business with broken bristles will be fought to the death!"
"At that time, I never would have imagined that today... we would be able to peacefully dig out 28 industrial zones from the Qing Dynasty without killing a single person!"
"Hahaha... More than 70,000 square kilometers are just given to us! Hahaha... Cheers!"
Talking about the past, everyone was sighing, Xiao Hexin was also in a daze as if in a dream, "Yes! Earning hundreds of thousands or millions at that time felt like a huge amount of money!"
"But what about now? Tens of millions of dollars are flowing in front of us like a tide and I don't feel anything anymore! It's only been a few years, and the head of state has led us to where we are today!"
"Where's the old shopkeeper? Come here quickly. It doesn't matter if you catch the cold occasionally. If you give the old shopkeeper some ginseng soup, he can still get drunk!"
Fan Lian was mentioned, and everyone was toasting together, "Here's to our old shopkeeper! If it hadn't been for the old shopkeeper who rescued the head of state in the Taihang Mountains, we wouldn't have the great fortune we have today!"
"To all our veterans of the Kingdom of Heaven in Taibaiding!"
"To all the brothers who died in the bloody battle with Naha!"
"To all those who died in Europe, the Far East, Nanyang, Fusang and the Qing Dynasty!"
Before the cold dishes were served, everyone here was already drunk. Some even buried their heads in their hands and shouted the names of their comrades who had passed away, crying softly!
Xiao Letian was also drunk. He stood up and raised his wine glass, "Why cry on this big day! Let me tell you, we must respect all the enemies who have pitied us, slandered us, and attacked us!"
"Without the whetstone of the enemy, it would be impossible for our Chinese people to show off today!"
"Take suffering as our teacher and our enemies as our friends! They are the ones who force us to move forward!"
"Drink this drink..."
Xiao Letian said with a drunken smile, "Haha... With twenty million taels of silver a year, you can rent so much wealth. This is the most cost-effective deal in the world!"
"I can do it all by myself without dying! Hahaha... Does he still expect me to give him cash when he is in Qing Dynasty? Let's dream, then we will use things to pay the debt, and by the way, we will default a little more every year..."
"We can't spend 6 to 7 million silver on 20 million yuan of industrial products. If we still owe a small amount of arrears, I will be benevolent and righteous if I give him 5 million!"
"But these industrial zones can create hundreds of millions of dollars of wealth every year. When the railway network is built in the future, we will be able to cover all the economies along the railway!"
"An unimaginably huge market! I have prepared the technology, capital, resources and dumping market needed for China's industrial revolution!"
"If everyone can't do it well like this! Then I, Xiao Letian, really have to give up my job!"
Hahaha... everyone roared with laughter, "Impossible! The head of state has already erected all the huge shelves. The foundation and beams of the hall have been completed. We are just adding bricks and tiles and painting. If we can't do this anymore, Okay, let’s all jump into the Pacific Ocean together!”
Xiao Letian looked up at the sky outside the window and recalled his past life. After the Meiji Restoration, that small island country, a small land with a small population and lack of resources, was able to explode such terrifying power with the power of industry!
But now, the population, land, and resources that I have fought for for the Chinese people are more than a hundred times that of the island country in my previous life! Coupled with the talent points of the bloodline of the Chinese people who are naturally crazy about infrastructure, I believe there is no way they can be compared to such a small country!
The Chinese nation is such a magical nation. As long as you can tear off the seal of arrogance and arrogance on them and inspire their enterprising spirit, then some foreign enemies will continue to threaten them!
As long as this is the case, this nation can burst out with power that you can't even imagine!
Secretly glancing at Hyoutaro, Noheita and other senior officials of the Foreign Legion, Xiao Letian felt a little embarrassed, saying, "Hey... I'm so sorry, I've stolen Asia's national destiny back into the hands of China!" '
'Just continue to be our vassals! In this parallel universe, your nation has not created so many blood debts to China! '
'So, I will make you a very wealthy vassal in the future! Lock your country's military technology tree, and you can create miracles in the civilian field! '
'Serving people well is what your nation is best at, and you should continue to carry it forward! '
"Hyoutaro! Noheita! What are you two thinking? Have a drink!"
Hyoutaro and Noheita stood up and toasted Xiao Letian with both hands, "Father... we... we are just grateful!"
