The cocktail party at the Jin family in Seoul was all attended by well-known celebrities. Everyone knew that this kind of cocktail party was actually a means of communication. It was a three-party dyeing vat for the upper class, the top rich, and the center of power. The people gathered here were not only It represents their identity and their pride.
The venue for the reception was set at the military and political command post, not only because of the large space and safety here, but also because Jin Bang did deliberately show off his strength.
Safety is of course very important for such a grand occasion. The inside and outside of the command post have reached the level of one post at ten steps and one post at five steps. Everyone is almost in full force. The Seoul garrison is dispatched to strictly control all places where people can stand. Get up and make sure nothing slips through the net.
It is impossible to count how many people tried to squeeze in for such an important social event. However, the venue for the reception was limited and not everyone could enter. There was no invitation letter, no introduction, and no identity. If the status is not enough, it is definitely not possible to join such an occasion. In addition, there are too many people who hope to find a son-in-law who can ride a dragon at the reception, borrow a chicken to lay an egg, and be left empty-handed. If they are all allowed in, then It’s obvious how chaotic it would be.
With a clean and tidy floor, a dining table more than ten meters long, a white tablecloth, and countless fine wines and delicacies placed on the table, the entire venue was carefully decorated, noble and elegant. The world is extremely luxurious, and the combined value of these foods is enough to reach tens of thousands of G. It can be seen that Jinbang has spent a lot of money on the planning of this cocktail party.
There is always no shortage of handsome guys and beauties at such a venue. At seven o'clock in the evening, all the rich ladies and aristocratic young men all showed up on time dressed up. Whether it was necessary or not, almost all of them were holding a wine glass in their hands. People form groups, and groups of five gather together to talk. Of course, because of age differences, young people still prefer to stay with peers of the appropriate age, but occasionally they will politely talk to the elders. Say hello to us.
"How are you? Are you not used to such occasions?"
At the back of the venue, Jin Bang looked at his son who was wearing a decent suit in front of him, and said as he looked at his son's expressionless face.
“It’s not that I’m not used to it, it’s that I don’t like it at all.”
Through the screen backstage, Xiao Jinzi looked at the handsome men and women and the powerful and wealthy businessmen throughout the reception. Looking at their faces that always maintained a smile, he felt that it was too artificial. He always felt that these people were too hypocritical.
"Even if you don't like it, you have to pretend to like it and accept it. Only by knowing how to hide yourself can you better observe the enemy in the dark, do you understand?"
Jinbang patted his son behind him, who had grown as tall as himself, and said sincerely.
"Okay, my son is still young. Let's talk about it. How can there be so many enemies for you to observe?"
Jin Baoniang, who was wearing a luxurious evening dress, stretched out her hand to smooth out a wrinkle on her son's clothes. She was overjoyed to see how outstanding she was now.
"Still young? He can already fight monsters."
Jinbang knew that his wife loved his son very much. Hearing this, he continued: "Kill the water ghost, destroy Marshall, which one of the things a child should do? To be honest, some of the things this kid has done are not even worthy of me as a father." They all admired her greatly.”
Xiao Jinzi looked at his father in surprise. In his memory, his father had always been strict. It was his mother who took care of him, but it didn't mean that his father really let him go. Some people say that a father's love is like a mountain, and his father is like a mountain. It's like a big mountain. You don't care about anything, just stick there. It seems useless to you. Moreover, because of the obstruction of this big mountain, you lose your freedom and have no way to enjoy the extremely tempting world outside. When you yourself When you think your wings are full and you want to fly high, this mountain that you can't climb will still lie in front of you. Sometimes it makes you hate it, but what you don't know, it seems that nothing is of any use. In fact, your father has been working hard and dedicated to this family. He used his way to block all the storms from the outside world for you. It is precisely because of the protection of this mountain that my mother and I can live a stable life. Only after you truly grow into an eagle that can soar between heaven and earth can you deeply understand the importance of this mountain.
Xiao Jinzi knew how difficult it was to have his father say these words of praise for him. His father had always talked about his own shortcomings, and today's words were the rarest words Xiao Jinzi had ever heard in his life. Some have a few words of recognition for themselves.
The father and son looked at each other, looking at the wrinkled face of his aging father, Xiao Jinzi smiled. This was the first time he showed a heartfelt smile in the past few days.
Seeing her son smiling, as a mother, she was naturally even more happy, so much so that she couldn't help but shed tears. At this moment, Xiao Jinzi's mother knew that her son had really grown up, and was no longer the same willful and stubborn boy as before. The rebellious boy who couldn't listen to anything formed a sharp contrast. His own son has become better and better.
The door of the room at the backstage of the venue was gently opened. Jin Bang's personal secretary walked in. He took a hungry look at the family in the room, then raised his hand and pointed at the communication watch he was wearing with his other hand. .
"Okay, it's time. I'll go out to greet the guests first. You can take a rest."
Looking at the time, Jinbang knew he should go out.
"You go first, we will go in a moment"
Xiao Jinzi's mother agreed, and then looked over her son's body again, trying to find out if there were any deficiencies.
"Then I'll leave first"
After finishing speaking, Jinbang took the lead to walk out of the backstage room and prepared to walk to the main venue.
"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Seoul, this warm, safe and resource-rich land. Next, please allow us to solemnly invite our supreme commander of Seoul, Kim Bang, Chairman Kim, to speak!!!"
At eight o'clock sharp, Jin Bang's secretary turned on the microphone and said.
Naturally, there was a deafening round of applause from the audience. Along with this round of applause, Jin Bang walked steadily onto the podium, looked at the guests in the audience with a smile, took the microphone handed to him by the secretary and said: "Today is a small gathering to celebrate the dog's return from the wild adventure. First of all, thank you all for coming to support me, Mr. Jin. I would like to thank you all for being here."
Immediately afterwards, Jin Bangyou said some polite words, which lasted for nearly five minutes. Xiao Jinzi finally appeared on the stage accompanied by his mother.
To be honest, Xiao Jinzi didn't want his mother to accompany him, so he acted as if his parents were taking their children shopping. However, in the end, he still didn't resist his mother, and it was his mother who accompanied him out.
Warm applause erupted from the surroundings again, as well as some compliments such as saying that young people are promising, heroes emerge from youth, tiger fathers have no dog sons, and so on.
In the venue, all the handsome young men knew that this was the man who could talk the most in Seoul. They all wanted to have the opportunity to get to know Xiao Jinzi and build a personal relationship. As for the rich ladies, they all knew that this twenty-year-old man who had just appeared on the stage was The eldest boy who is 6 years old is the biggest son-in-law tonight. Even if they have no idea, the parents of these daughters will try every means to introduce their daughters to Jinbang or Xiaojinzi in exchange for more opportunities in the future. , as long as you know each other and have met for the first time, there will be many opportunities in the future. The most important thing is this first meeting.
No matter how you say it, what is Xiao Jinzi’s family background and family environment? The education he received since childhood, the food he eats, and the items he uses are all the best. Although he doesn’t like such occasions, he is still able to deal with such occasions with ease. .
In the past, although he could be regarded as a prominent second generation ancestor, Seoul is not a single family after all. There are many people on the gold list. In addition, his personality is not gregarious, so basically no one pays attention to him unless he is on such an occasion. , many people don’t even know that he is the son of committee member Jin Bang. Over time, Xiao Jinzi no longer participates in socializing on such occasions. At that time, he might as well go to Grandpa Uli’s house and listen to him tell the story of the caravan. and the legend of the bounty hunter. Even if he couldn't help but read two books on mechanical knowledge, he could pass the time. These were much more important to him than attending such a party that would not help him at all.
Nowadays, all those high-level officials in Seoul who can die are almost dead. Only those who still have the right to speak have completely lost to the golden list due to the horrific plague. Today's Seoul is really... Xiao Jinzi, who has a single family and is no longer what he used to be, is naturally the protagonist.
Pulled by his father, the Jinbang couple introduced Xiao Jinzi to many elders one by one. Although these people are not comparable to the current Jin family in terms of strength, if they want to truly stabilize the future development of Seoul, they only need to seize military power. If winning over people's hearts is not enough, we have to win over these prestigious people. Otherwise, if Seoul City relies on him alone and wants to do everything personally and cover all aspects, it is simply impossible and exhausting. Therefore, these original members of Seoul City Many are still unable to move.
After a round of introductions, Xiao Jinzi felt that his face was almost stiff from smiling. It was very tiring to keep such a smile all the time. It felt like it was even more tiring than tearing a water ghost apart with bare hands. It was really no fun. It's relaxing to have a fight or something.
Just when Xiao Jinzi was getting bored, the next person his father introduced to him made him wake up instantly.
"Come! Son, let me introduce to you. This is Liu Dong, the captain of the Southeast Caravan. He and his caravan are now very powerful. It is said that he joined the 'Creation Alliance' some time ago, right?"
His father Jin Bang still had his unchanged smile on his face, and his eyes were as calm as ever, but Xiao Jinzi knew that his father's words were meant for him.
Then Jinbangyou faced his son and said: "This is Quanzi Jinbao"
Standing in front of his father was a middle-aged man who was probably forty or fifty years old. He had a naive face. The most impressive thing was that he had a red birthmark on his forehead. The birthmark was two thumbs wide. The piece is particularly conspicuous, but what Xiao Jinzi remembers most is the face of the man named Liu Dong. It is basically 70 to 80% similar to the face of the man named Master Liu. However, his face His face looks older. If he were younger, the two of them would look like they were made from the same mold.
Genetic inheritance is very powerful. Genetic genes, also called genetic factors, are chemical substances with complex structures that determine the genetic characteristics of organisms.
The 46 chromosomes of a human fertilized egg contain chemical substances called deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), which are called genes. They are the main material basis for storing and transmitting genetic information and replicating cells. Genetic information is transferred from one generation of cells to the next generation and from one generation to the next. The storage and transmission from one individual to its offspring involves a chemical mechanism. Genes hide the secrets of life and its history. It is a miracle born during the evolution of biochemical systems.
Genes have two characteristics. First, they can faithfully copy themselves to maintain the basic characteristics of organisms; second, genes can "mute". Most of the mutations will cause diseases, and a small part of them are non-pathogenic mutations, which are not disease-causing. Mutation brings raw materials to natural selection, so that organisms can be selected in natural selection to select individuals that are most suitable for nature.
"Where, where, it's just a fluke...a fluke..."
Liu Dong looked at Xiao Jinzi up and down in front of him, and then answered with a smile.
Liu Dong's tone was very calm, with the kind of tone that put himself and Jinbang in the same identity.
"Creation Alliance?"
Xiao Jinzi repeated the sentence after hearing it.
"The Creation Alliance is the largest alliance organization on earth. It helps mankind unite all forces. The two leaders of the alliance regard saving the world as their own responsibility. It is said that the alliance's manpower and material resources can even form the strongest alliance in the world. "Great Chariot Troop"
Liu Dong was very proud to announce the information he knew about the Creation Alliance.
"oh"
Jin Bang, who was holding a glass of wine in his hand, nodded, looked at him thoughtfully, and then asked casually: "This alliance is so powerful? How did you join it?"
When this topic was mentioned, Liu Dong's expression changed instantly, but it soon returned to normal. Although the movement on Liu Dong's old fox's face was very slight, it was just a subconscious muscle twitching, but it took less than a moment. The change of seconds was still captured by the gold list.
"Actually, it's nothing, it's just a coincidence."
Liu Dong smiled, feeling a little relieved, and said.
Jinbang could only nod his head and did not continue to ask. It would be good to see through some things. It would be troublesome for everyone. But one thing is for sure, that is, Liu Dong must have used bad methods to join the Creation Alliance. , the gold list is very certain about this.
At the same time, Xiao Jinzi had another doubt in his heart, that is, the claws of the Creation Alliance have stretched too far. Now Seoul can already hear the name of this organization. The speed of the growth of this rapidly rising alliance organization Amazing indeed.
"Why didn't you see your young master?"
Jinbang suddenly pretended to be very surprised and looked around.
"There is a batch of goods that needs to be escorted to Odo as soon as possible. I asked him to teleport there to deal with the matter there. He didn't come this time."
Liu Dong smiled apologetically, then turned his gaze to Xiao Jinzi and said, "My son Liu Qiang is about the same age as you. I think you two will have many topics in common when we meet."
"Definitely"
Xiao Jinzi replied.
Just kidding, the topic of wife-stealing hatred has been talked about enough, but judging from Liu Dong's tone, he doesn't seem to know that his son Liu Qiang and himself have such an unsolvable problem, but with his status It's possible to hide your inner thoughts and pretend to know nothing, but in any case, since he hasn't said anything about it yet, let's just pretend he doesn't know.
Liu Dong then talked about some things about the Creation Alliance, but the most important thing was that Liu Dong said that in a few days, one of the two generals of their Creation Alliance would come to Seoul in person to meet with the city lord here, mainly to negotiate If Seoul establishes a relief center for the Creation Alliance, the city lord of Seoul will naturally be the only one on the gold list.
Regarding this matter, Jinbang did not express his opinion immediately, neither agreed nor disagreed. He just smiled and pushed the matter aside.
Establishing a stronghold in Seoul is tantamount to allowing a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh. The main reason why Seoul is so peaceful and peaceful now is because of unification. If the Creation Alliance is inserted, the situation will be difficult to control in the future.
When Xiao Jinzi heard this, he subconsciously wanted to refuse, but when he saw that his father did not agree or nodded and started to push the oil bottle with Xixi, he didn't say anything.
As for the Creation Alliance, Xiao Jinzi knows the strength of these guys. To be honest, they are indeed very strong. They are the most powerful organization rather than an individual they have seen so far. The one in the Creation Alliance in Solu With their lineup, there is no doubt that they can defeat the entire Seoul without any effort. Putting such a disparity in strength in front of them is tantamount to inviting a wolf into the house. This is by no means a wise choice.
"We still have something to do, so I won't accompany you."
After chatting for a while, Jin Bang glanced at his son beside him. Seeing his clear eyes, he felt a burst of admiration in his heart, and then said goodbye to Liu Dong and took Xiao Jinzi to meet others.
That night, Xiao Jinzi couldn't remember how many people he had met and knew, because there were too many to remember. At the end of the day, those who came to introduce his daughter and son, Xiao Jinzi just nodded and smiled, and regarded them as acquaintances. I don’t even bother to remember who these people are. Anyway, these people are at the back. They should be some unimportant roles, just dispensable. The other thing is dancing. There are at least two of them before and after. A dozen rich ladies in luxurious clothes invited Xiao Jinzi to dance with him, but they were all rejected by him. At first, the rejected girls were very disappointed and thought it was their own fault. When they saw other girls one after another, After being rejected, they all understood that it was not their problem, but that they simply didn't have the intention.
Eighty percent of the human body is water, and the daily metabolism is very fast. After drinking several glasses of wine, Xiao Jinzi has reached the critical point of needing metabolism. He looked at his father and mother and saw that they were still there. I was chatting happily with people, but I didn’t know how they could talk so happily, let alone what they were talking about.
Turning around, Xiao Jinzi was ready to find the bathroom.
There were a lot of eyes staring at him, and when someone saw the opportunity, they followed him out.
In the men's restroom, Xiao Jinzi had just finished relieving himself when a drunken girl staggered directly into the men's restroom. Xiao Jinzi, who was washing his hands, was startled by this woman.
But after watching for a while, Xiao Jinzi walked directly past her.
At the door of the bathroom, Xiao Jinzi patted the guard at the door, then pointed inside and said, "There is a girl inside who drank too much."
After saying that, Xiao Jinzi left without looking back.
Along the way, there were so many coincidences, such as a sprained foot, a sudden slip, a faint, whatever happened. Such coincidences made Xiao Jinzi smile all the way as if he were watching a play. Then he returned to the reception venue without paying any attention to anyone.
The cocktail party lasted for nearly three hours, and it was completely over at almost eleven or twelve o'clock at night.
"Son, do you know anything about the Creation Alliance?"
After returning home, the servants were busy helping the family change their clothes. Jin Bang, who had drunk a lot of wine, was not too drunk. After taking off his coat, he glanced at Xiao Jinzi and said.
"Very strong, not ordinary strong"
Xiao Jinzi, who was preparing to change his shoes, paused for two seconds after hearing his father's words before speaking.
"We're all home. Can you two, father and son, stop talking about work? It's getting late. Let your son rest quickly."
Little Jinzi's wife didn't want to hear about work, so she told her husband. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
