Ms. Li Shufen was standing at the entrance of the lobby with a group of people, muttering. [Read the latest chapter] Seven or eight people were wearing suits and ties, and they were energetic and friendly, with a hint of arrogance. Gu Hanhan only knew one of them, Lao Zhao from the tourism bureau.
Ms. Li Shufen saw Gu Hanhan while she was talking and waved to her happily: Girl, come here quickly!
Gu Hanhan felt that her mother was calling her like a dog, but she still walked over quickly: "What's the matter, Mom?"
Don't say anything, just hurry up and add some people, you are the only one missing. Ms. Li Shufen couldn't help but push Gu Hanhan into the queue of people dragging their dresses to the floor.
The only thing missing is me! Gu Hanhan struggled away and said loudly, Mom, you are not really asking me to be an extra, are you?
almost. Gu Hanhan's mother said, do you still remember what I told you last time about the diplomatic mission staying in a family hotel? Finally, it was decided that a group of people would live in our house. However, what about this group of people, especially a high official from a certain country and his entourage——
Lao Zhao from the tourism bureau corrected on the side: He is the chief of the Elder Council of the Justin Empire. How many times have I said it, why can’t I remember it?
Gu Hanhan's mother smiled: Oh, yes, his name is a bit difficult to pronounce, and I always have trouble saying it. Anyway, his status in their country is quite high. No, he said he wanted to live in our house, and even people from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs came. Gu Hanhan's mother said and pointed at the few men and women in suits and leather shoes next to them.
Are there people from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs? It does seem to have a lot of background! Zheng Wenwen and I sent all the electors of Ogra to the detention center to eat in prison, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs did not send a fly out. As soon as the chief of this elders' association came to stay at the hotel, seven or eight people showed up at once!
Gu Hanhan thought: It seems that Ms. Li Shufen is attracting a big client this time! Our small store is going to gain international popularity and make money from now on?
The more Gu Hanhan thought about it, the more beautiful it became, so she expressed her attitude to her mother with an unprecedented sense of ownership: OK, Mom, I will come back to help you in the next two days.
Of course it is unavoidable to come back to help, but your most critical task now is to quickly change into clothes and serve as a welcome guest. You went to Huangzhuang University to hire female students all morning, but in the end you were still missing one, so you had to make up for it. Gu Hanhan's mother pointed at the girls in costumes who were waiting in the small courtyard to greet her, and said to Gu Hanhan, "What about that, they asked me to live here, and our store has to follow their country's etiquette standards. Provide services consistent with leadership status. No, we are doing the welcoming ceremony now.
Gu Hanhan was a little confused. According to the etiquette standards of their Justin Empire, what kind of service was suitable for the status of the chief gentleman of the Senate?
It's almost like turning our family into an ancient palace and serving the chief as an emperor.
What? Gu Hanhan was furious and yelled at her family, Ms. Li Shufen: Mom, why did you let such crazy people live in her house? Come and go wherever you want, love whoever you want!
Gu Hanhan's mother herself felt a little embarrassed when she said this, and quickly pointed at the diplomats next to her. This is not what I said, it was all what they said.
So, a diplomat tilted his head and said to Gu Hanhan kindly: Hey, little girl, you can't be so rude. The Justin Empire is a friendly neighbor and important partner of our earth. As one of the important leaders of the Justin Empire, Mr. Chief is an old friend of the people of our earth. As hospitable earthlings, is it not what we, as hosts, should do, to receive guests in the way they are accustomed to and make guests feel at home?
Gu Hanhan was almost driven crazy by this guy's tone. He grabbed his hair and said, isn't this the glorious mission of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs? It's not the business of a small, shabby hotel like mine to receive foreign guests, right?
Another diplomat said: Because this time Mr. Elder is traveling to Earth in a private capacity with a diplomatic delegation from 15 countries, he had expressed his wish to arrange the itinerary as an ordinary extraterrestrial tourist. In this way, we cannot receive them with corresponding diplomatic etiquette.
Gu Hanhan was astonished. He was already an ordinary tourist, so what kind of court etiquette and emperor treatment did he expect? Is this some crazy logic?
In fact, we have entrusted the tourism bureau to provide a more suitable family hotel before, but unfortunately, Justin was not satisfied. It was finally confirmed that we would stay in your hotel. Mr. Senator’s entourage applied to us on behalf of Mr. Senator after conducting extensive inspections. Moreover, according to them, you have also received a deposit from the inspection officials sent by Justin. In this way, it is really difficult for our government to evade. Having said this, the diplomat twitched his lips with a constipated expression. There are probably tons of idiots roaring at that senior official from a friendly country who insists on living in such a miserable place.
Gu Hanhan said depressedly: Ms. Li Shufen, without the diamond, can we not take the porcelain job? We can't come to the court etiquette or anything like that!
Ms. Li Shufen said in embarrassment: Everyone has given me enough money!
The diplomat said reservedly, don't worry, our diplomatic department has sent professional and technical personnel to provide guidance on etiquette.
It's actually not as difficult as you think, little girl. A third diplomat said that the court etiquette of the Justinian Empire was similar to that of seventeenth-century Europe and was not difficult to imitate. If it were the court etiquette of the Eastern Empire in the seventeenth century, it would be difficult to handle!
To be precise, it was the French court during the period of Louis XIV-Thespon in the 17th century AD. Another female diplomat in a suit smiled at Gu Hanhan and said, the little girl knows Louis XIV-Thespon. What was the palace like during Madam Pang's time? Very beautiful, luxurious and grand ceremonies and banquets, palace etiquette like a gorgeous stage play.
The French Palace... Can a small courtyard like ours be disguised as a French Palace? I'm afraid the performance is not a gorgeous stage play, but at most it is a sitcom!
The diplomats laughed together. The same female diplomat said: There are indeed difficulties in terms of hardware, but since Justin insists on choosing your hotel, they probably won't mind about this. Moreover, the lack of hardware can be made up for by soft furnishings! Our diplomatic department has urgently transferred a batch of seventeenth-century palace-style decorations, and Justin has also sent all the things they will use in advance, and now they have been decorated. For etiquette and ceremony, we specially invited the production team who are best at filming the first Renaissance court films. All bills incurred as a result will be paid in full by Justin.
so……
Gu Hanhan turned to look at the courtyard of his hotel, which was occupied by a large number of extras, directors, stage managers, makeup artists, assistants and other film professionals.
So, as long as you think of it as a rare luxury palace retro cosply game, it’s actually quite fun if you participate, right?
Okay, so what role do I play in this cosply? Gu Hanhan looked at the diplomat aunt with a look of helplessness. She must have a role for me, right? Otherwise, they won’t urge me to come back. Is she playing the role of a tea-serving girl or a miserable palace maid? Damn it, it's so embarrassing and I don't find it funny at all.
Don't think that things are so bad, the diplomat aunt smiled and comforted Gu Hanhan kindly. Justin's request was actually not too much. According to the situation they submitted to our diplomatic department in advance, there will be a huge entourage of more than a hundred people accompanying His Excellency Su Yu to stay in this hotel, and the entourage will handle all matters by themselves. The hotel only provides the most basic accommodation services and necessary information exchange, and the specific details will be communicated by the head of the attendant group.
Hotel attendants did not serve directly the senator himself. There is no need to even enter the area where he lives. It definitely does not involve infringement of the human rights of citizens on Earth, and you can rest assured about this. All the inn needs to do is provide enough personnel to make up for their manpower as they perform the various necessary rituals. There is nothing practical to do, just put on the required clothes and show up at the place required by the ceremonial guard.
To put it bluntly, it’s just to gather enough heads to act as a human background wall, right?
Of course it’s not impossible if you insist on understanding it this way. Female foreign instructors are habitually cautious in their words.
I just don’t understand. Since they are so rich and awesome, then, Gu Hanhan asked, why don’t they bring enough people over and put on a show as they like?
Well, because the "Earth Reserve Convention" strictly limits the number of followers of foreign leaders who can enter the Earth's planetary defense layer and environmental protection circle. There are no exceptions to this, and must be observed regardless of business or private matters. For tourist areas, the current standard is that the maximum number of people cannot exceed 150. explained a young-looking diplomat.
However, according to the practice of the Justin Empire, any ceremony, even if not counting the military honor guard, requires at least 500 people within the palace alone. The diplomat aunt continued, for example, for the welcome check-in ceremony to be held today, according to Justin's requirements, I have to provide a queue of at least 800 women aged 18-20...
Eight hundred people! Gu Hanhan was so surprised that he shouted, since they like to show off so much, why don't they stay at the Royal Holiday Hotel in the Summer Palace. There are a thousand waiters who can cosply whatever they want.
The diplomat aunt said helplessly: We suggested going to the Royal Holiday Hotel in the Summer Palace, but they refused. Didn't my colleague tell you just now that the chief attendant of Mr. Senator insists on staying in your hotel.
Gosh, should I be honored? Gu Hanhan slapped his forehead, there are not even fifteen waiters in our house including the aunties who collect garbage.
So you can only hire them. Due to the nature of private tourism, the government has no way to directly send people here.
Gu Hanhan glanced at the people queuing in the yard in horror, and said to her mother: Ms. Li Shufen, did you really hire 800 extras? Then you are so powerful... Can our yard really hold so many people?
The director said it was no problem. There was a queue from the entrance to the inner room. Gu Hanhan’s mother said that the key is that people are difficult to hire.
The author has something to say: I would like to apologize first, Mantou was sick yesterday.
Therefore, everyone who asks for compensation for double and triple updates may have no choice for the time being. Because this chapter is the last chapter of Mantou's manuscript. I will make up for it after November if possible.
Regarding the update time, in principle, it will be updated before two noon every day. If there are special reasons, we will ask for leave in advance as much as possible. There was no update or explanation at two o'clock, which proved that the steamed buns did not have the conditions to go online that day.
I’ll ask everyone for leave first. Leave requests on the 25th, 26th and 10.7 will not be updated. I have to send my child to my grandma's house. I will board the train on the 25th, get off the train in the early morning of the 27th, and return at night on the 7th, so I have no conditions to update these days. We will try our best to ensure updates during the National Day period, but please understand if we cannot fully guarantee it. Because these few days before the 7th are the last time I spend with my children. After that, we couldn't see each other for more than half a year.
