The two of them had a meal in the car and took a long nap before arriving at Fengdong City.
The scenery here is much better than what Jin Miaomiao saw along the way. At least the ground is flat and you don't have to walk on the ground with your feet.
In front of him was a magnificent and huge tent. If the fabric floating around did not indicate the material of the tent, Jin Miaomiao would have thought it was a tent made of gold.
Standing in front of the tent were Tuo Ba Ling and Zeng Qi. They had been waiting here early and had already eaten a mouthful of yellow sand.
Seeing Director Kong and Jin Miaomiao getting out of the car, Tuobaling came up with her arms wide open and gave them a passionate hug.
Zeng Qi, on the other hand, seemed much more restrained. He stepped forward, bowed at a 45-degree angle and gave a gentleman's salute to the two of them, and then said with a smile: "Two distinguished guests, you have come a long way and have worked hard!"
After a few people exchanged greetings, they entered the tent together.
Tuoba Hong was already waiting at the table. He was wearing a bundt made of animal skins and a chain made of animal teeth hung on his chest. He looked completely different from the way he usually appeared in Jin Miaomiao's live broadcast room.
If Tuoba Hong in the live broadcast room hadn't repeatedly said that he was a hunter from a remote area, everyone would probably think that he was a scholar raised by ordinary people in the four major financial groups.
As soon as he saw Jin Miaomiao, Tuoba Hong smiled visibly. He did not come up to her or stand up, but said to the two of them very enthusiastically: "You are finally here! You have worked hard all the way! Please take a seat!"
Courteous and courteous, distant yet cordial.
He is indeed the head of the family.
Following the etiquette of the Xiao Family Consortium, Jin Miaomiao and Director Kong first curtsied to Tuoba Hong, and then presented the gift they brought from the Xiao Family - a set of hunting bows made of pure gold.
This thing is useless for hunting.
But it’s very beautiful when used as a gift.
After all, gold is the only thing in the world that cannot be synthesized. Jin Miaomiao heard Xiao Yijie say that all the continents in the world were originally created by the Big Bang. Only at the moment of the Big Bang in the New World can metal elements as heavy as gold be produced. The total amount is only that much, so she will never worry about it. It will depreciate wildly.
Gold does not react with any natural substances and does not have any radioactivity. In other words, this thing is the same everywhere.
No matter how much time passes, no matter where it is, gold will never change.
Therefore, gold is the most stable common currency in the entire Cyber Continent, and it is also the favorite material for those engaged in research and development.
Because of stability.
Xiao Yijie even claimed that even if parallel time and space and time travel appear one day, gold will still be useful.
Therefore, giving gold as a gift is the highest etiquette on the Cyber Continent and represents absolute goodwill and blessings.
This was arranged by Xiao Yicheng.
In fact, he had been interested in contacting the Tuoba clan for a long time. Several major financial groups ridiculed the Tuoba clan for being garbage collectors. However, in Xiao Yicheng's eyes, everyone has their own value, let alone a large-scale financial group.
There is another level of consideration, and that is Xiao Yijie. Xiao Yicheng knew what his brother was thinking about Jin Miaomiao, so he asked Jin Miaomiao to bring lavish gifts for a visit, which always brought her more favor and preferential treatment.
After all, it’s not strange to be polite to many people.
When Director Kong opened the air pressure box containing the golden bow, everyone was stunned.
The only reason to blame is that the sentries who conducted the customs inspection were perfunctory. If they had asked Jin Miaomiao and the two of them to open the box and check it, they would have seen this dazzling golden product.
I saw that this bow was about forty inches long, with a smooth and smooth bow. What was engraved on it was the Qilian Mountain, the sacred mountain in the Tuoba domain.
There are also ten flying arrows made of pure gold placed on one side of the box. The arrow tails are carved with delicate carvings that are almost real.
This set of bows and arrows, even if they are not made of gold, can still be sold for a high price just because of the carving work.
One of Tuoba Hong's attendants stepped forward to take the bow box, but his whole body shook and he almost fell to the ground without the bow.
He couldn't help shouting: "So heavy!"
Director Kong seemed to have predicted it in advance and did not completely let go. When the little brother was about to fall, he immediately stepped forward and took the box again. With a caring expression on his face, he said: "This gift is a bit heavy. Please ask for another distinguished envoy." Let’s carry it with you.”
The attendant looked at Director Kong with the eyes of a monster.
Jin Miaomiao heard from Director Kong's voice: "Sister, sister, I must be strong!"
She almost stopped laughing.
Tuoba Hong directed another attendant to come forward, and said with a smile to Director Kong: "It is naturally made of gold and is very heavy. Ms. Kong can actually lift such a generous gift alone. She is so secretive!"
Director Kong heard some distrust, while Jin Miaomiao directly read from Tuoba Hong's voice: "My seventh uncle, this eldest sister has practiced before, isn't he here to kill me?"
Director Kong said: "Master Tuoba, please forgive me. This arrangement was not made just for this visit. It is actually because of my personal shortcomings."
As she spoke, she gently took off her gloves.
Jin Miaomiao saw that under the gloves, there was actually a set of mechanical arms!
Everyone gasped when they saw this scene.
Director Kong continued: "My family was poor. When I was seventeen, I was sold to a brothel by my father to pay off my debt. I escaped with my arms broken. It was the compassionate head of the Xiao family who saved me and gave me this mechanical arm. In fact, I could have put another layer of skin on it to make it look like the real thing, but I refused. I think only like this can I always remind myself of the Xiao family's kindness to me and how lucky I am."
And, when necessary, give some people a little shock from the Xiao Consortium.
Jin Miaomiao was stunned.
It's so terrible that I didn't read anything about it from Director Kong's thoughts along the way.
Director Kong didn't give a single thought.
It seems that this matter has become as common as eating and drinking.
At this time, the other people in the tent shared the same expression as Jin Miaomiao.
Tuoba Hong was the first to regain his composure. He clapped his hands and praised: "The head of the Xiao family is kind-hearted and respectable. Although you have lost your arms, you have become the right-hand man of the Xiao family. , and became the respected Director Kong. The Xiao family’s skills are really amazing, it would be great if one day our Tuoba family could also use such equipment.”
Director Kong said with a smile: "If we can succeed in our cooperation on 'Legend of Kirin', all this may be possible."
Tuoba Hong was very satisfied with Director Kong's answer, and immediately called the attendants to serve kumis and roasted sand pig to entertain the distinguished guests from afar.
The Tuoba clan's technology was backward and they were unable to produce any compound food. Through generations of hunting and domestication, they bred an animal that could be used as meat - sand pigs.
The intestines of sand pigs have evolved to digest sand and minerals. However, because of this, sand pigs have many mineral toxins in their bodies, and most of their organs cannot be eaten. Their internal organs can only be hollowed out and the remaining parts roasted on the fire. It can be eaten only when it is cooked.
Jin Miaomiao saw a real roasted sand pig for the first time. The aroma of barbecue was strong and assailed his nostrils.
Probably because he was very hungry, Jin Miaomiao felt that unlike the ferocious appearance in the expansion pack, the roasted sand pig in front of him actually looked pretty.
While several people were eating and drinking, a burst of loud laughter came from outside the big tent, and a man with a sinister face opened the curtain and walked in.
I heard the man shouting loudly as he walked: "A distinguished guest is coming, why didn't you call me!"
