Li Yi didn't know what the general said to others.
He doesn't care either.
All he knew was that this was probably the most satisfying meal he had ever had since coming to this time and space.
In addition to the common delicacies of chicken, duck, fish, meat, and seafood, as well as various fine wines, there were also many unnamed delicacies that made people want to eat at first glance, and they were served one after another for free.
The only regret is that there are no beautiful women serving the food, they are all burly men.
It's also in line with Border's style.
"Come on, come on, you helped me two times in a row, and I didn't even have the chance to thank you. This meal is just a token of my appreciation for you."
While Chen Han picked up the wine glass, all the frontier generals present stood up and raised their wine glasses to look at Li Yi.
Even Guo Yunkai and Guo Shenjun raised the cup in their hands and looked at Li Yi with a smile and a slight nod.
Having said all this, Li Yi had already given enough face, so it was naturally difficult for Li Yi to refute the general's face.
He raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp, while pointing the glass down to indicate to everyone that they were free to do so.
"Hahahaha! Okay! It's true that a hero comes out of a boy! Now you have to eat and drink. There are no rules. There are no fathers and sons in the drinking hall!"
Chen Han spoke first, instantly kicking off the banquet, and everyone became more relaxed.
Except for a few civilian officials who joined the army, most of the people present were generals on the battlefield, that is, Chen Han's subordinates.
These people follow orders and prohibitions on the battlefield, and they do so off the field.
After hearing Boss Chen Han say this, everyone immediately relaxed (unbridled).
Everyone drank happily, and many people even saw this opportunity and ran to Mr. Chen, lifted up their sleeves and carried the wine jar to compete with him.
For a moment, he was forgotten as an outsider.
Logically speaking, this was a celebration banquet hosted by Chen Han for him. The behavior of these generals was obviously a bit unfunny.
But Li Yi didn't care about this.
On the contrary, no one came to interrupt his feast, which was exactly what he wanted.
For him, engaging in this kind of social interaction is not as practical as eating two more bites of good food.
The scene then turned into a scene that looked quite distinct.
A young man was eating and drinking happily as if no one was watching.
On the other side, a large group of people carrying wine jars gathered around the leader and kept toasting and drinking. They were also very happy.
There was no such discordant scene.
No one came forward to provoke Li Yi because an outsider was favored.
After three rounds of drinking, most people were almost done drinking, and Li Yi finally felt a sense of relief in his heart.
Because he was full too.
At this time, Chen Han suddenly clapped his hands. Under the eyes of everyone, a group of women dressed in gorgeous clothes filed in and began to dance to the melodious musical instruments.
Chen Han lowered his head and whispered to Li Yi.
"I'm sorry, little brother. This is the only condition we have. This is what my labor and management tried so hard not to go to the imperial capital. As for these women, they are all pitiful women who lost their homes and relatives during the war and were forced to wander. People, join the army and select some young people to come to join in the fun, and when this incident is over, we will help them settle here."
Li Yi was stunned when he heard this.
No wonder these women look sallow, muscular, and obviously malnourished.
Although they used makeup to cover up a lot, it still couldn't cover up the fact that they were not professional dancers.
Even if there is training, it won't last long, it's obviously temporary.
After hearing this, Li Yi became more fond of the guarding general.
"The general's righteousness can be said to be a blessing to the people of the western plains."
"Haha, please don't praise me. If I hadn't helped the labor and management a lot, this place would have become a stronghold of the enemy. How could the people say anything about it? If you ask me, I have to thank you!"
As soon as the words fell and the dance ended, the group of non-professional dancers came forward one after another and bowed deeply to Li Yi.
"Thank you, little general, for guarding the border and preventing the Nu family and others from being killed in another country."
The voice was not loud, but the woman's voice rang out among the gangsters, and the atmosphere of the banquet reached a climax at once.
These women are not the kind of shy and untouchable women.
They have seen a little bit of the world outside and are not like those coy women.
What's more, women in this era are not like the kind of women Li Yi knows who stay at home and stay at home.
Besides, anyone who is willing to come here to dance knows how these rough guys will behave after drinking too much.
After one person took the lead, the scene suddenly became chaotic.
Chen Han sat at the top and didn't care at all when he saw this.
He does seem to be a good boss.
"Brother Li, don't you choose one?"
Seeing that Li Yi was still sitting in his original position, drinking and eating, Chen Han couldn't help but ask.
"Don't dislike these women. They are all poor people. I have told them that no one will refuse these soldiers present. Anyone who is taken away by them will receive a sum of money to survive. Good luck. You can even marry into the families of these generals, which is a good way out for them."
The person who spoke was Guo Yunkai, and he was responsible for organizing this banquet, including these women.
When Li Yi heard this, he subconsciously glanced at Chen Han, who was watching the scene leisurely, and found that he seemed to turn a deaf ear to what he said about joining the army.
Well, pretend you can’t hear it, right?
Despite some resistance, Li Yi had to admit that it was indeed difficult for these women who did not have much ability to work and had no support in this cold winter to find a way to survive.
If they can't find a long or short-term meal ticket at this banquet.
The consequences really won't be good.
Li Yi still agrees with this point.
Saving someone's life is better than letting someone starve to death, right?
However, this approach is suitable for other people, but not for him, an outsider.
Shaking his head, Li Yizheng was about to decline politely, but he was stunned when he heard Moros' words.
"Choose that one, the woman in turquoise, just her, you won't regret it."
"...Are you sure? Don't forget that I will eventually leave here."
"Then take her with you."
Moros, whose voice had changed, was unexpectedly persistent, which aroused Li Yi's curiosity.
Use your finger lightly.
"Just her!"
"you sure?"
Guo Yunkai glanced at the woman Li Yi pointed at and was a little surprised by his choice.
In fact, before this, the generals present were well aware of the family background and personal information of these women.
This is why, with Chen Han's acquiescence, they quickly found the real reason for their goals.
And there is naturally a reason why that woman is still sitting there alone.
"An Qingluo, 19 years old this year, is a generous person. Well, it is a township under the jurisdiction of the West Plains Prefecture. It is about close to the mountains. You can think of it as a remote area. Because of war and famine, I was forced to leave my hometown. I originally wanted to come here. At a certain outlet in Fucheng, we encountered another wave of beasts, and even the last bits of our belongings were lost in the wave of beasts. In the end, we could only beg along the streets and follow the people who were also affected by the disaster, and then we ended up here."
There's nothing wrong here, but what Guo Yunkai said next, his tone was a little weird.
"Well... I have been engaged several times, but every time before the marriage was finalized, something happened to my husband's family, and he either died suddenly or accidentally."
"The last time I went through the door, but on the night of the wedding, my husband's house was attacked by robbers. In the end, only she and her husband escaped... Then they encountered a tide of beasts on the road, and then... there was no more, and finally An Qingluo is still the only one left."
Damn it!
This woman is a lone star!
Even Li Yi couldn't help but sigh in his heart when he heard this.
"I said, brother, are you serious about asking me to take her away? I feel like my fate is not as tough as hers, right?"
"Moros" looked disdainful when he heard this.
"What are you afraid of? You don't want to marry her. Although according to your human standards, this woman can indeed be regarded as a beauty. She should be fat and skinny... Even if she has been on the run for so many days, her nutrition is still sufficient... "
"Let's talk about business, what the hell are you talking about."
Li Yi interrupted him impatiently.
"I'm asking you now, what good will it do to me if you take her away?"
"Just listen to me. Will I still harm you?"
"No, if you don't tell me, I will decline."
Li Yi raised his head and glanced at Guo Yunkai, who had a strange look on his face, and Chen Han, who didn't look at him at all.
Well, I bet these guys not only wanted to thank me, but also solved these problems along the way.
What a good calculation!
To be honest, Li Yi is not a superstitious person, but if there are too many such things, it will still make people feel a little uncomfortable.
Of course, if it's really useful, that's another matter.
So it is reasonable for him to ask Moros to tell his reasons.
"You don't care about this."
"Then you have to give me a reason, right? I have nothing to do but bring a woman by my side. I can't bear it on my shoulders or carry it on my hands. Does that make sense?"
Li Yi immediately retorted.
"Of course it makes sense."
"If you read correctly, this woman has a big secret!"
"What secret?"
"I'll tell you when I get back."
"..."
