Chapter 236 The American Banquet

Chapter 236 American Banquet

Ye Zhikui and Bai Weiwei walked in slowly. The banquet hall was extremely wide, with white chandeliers hanging on the ceiling. The Americans obviously did not have French people and British people had so many rules. The banquet hall was arranged casually. The long table covered with white tablecloth was filled with various Western food and desserts and fruit salads. There were candles in the middle of the table, and colorful lanterns were colorful in the edge of the table. In this era, it was also beautiful.

In the hall, the banquet was obviously just beginning. Now the audience was all low-end guests. The hosts of the banquet had not yet appeared. The well-dressed ministerial groups of various countries were drinking and chatting. The handsome men and beautiful women were standing or sitting, holding cocktails, champagne and other casually chatting, but their eyes were floating around intentionally or unintentionally. Once they saw a valuable target, they would immediately hug over and talk.

In the corner of the hall, there was a piano, and the elegant sound of the piano floated out from the pianist's slender fingers.

As soon as Ye Zhikui and the other two entered the hall, more than ten foreigners who seemed to be vaguely looked at each other. Then they inadvertently looked away, leaving behind several Bai Weiwei who was wearing white cheongsams with malicious intentions. They obviously felt that they were not worthy of their personal connection.

Seeing those foreign women wearing brightly colored foreign skirts with a large piece of snow-white breasts exposed, Bai Weiwei quietly looked at her breasts, and competed in her heart. She was a little depressed, but she murmured to herself: "Shameless."

Even though she is well-informed, it is unlikely that she would have to go out in such a dress.

Ye Zhikui didn't know what Bai Weiwei was rumbled, and smiled and pulled her to the fruit salad, picked up the plate, picked some fruits and vegetables inside, and poured two glasses of champagne for the two of them. He smiled and said, "We can go back with a secret meal here. Anyway, those Americans have money to pretend to be generous."

Mr. Li was staring at the two of them. When he saw that they were not following him, he quietly sat down and ate the pastry. He couldn't help but feel annoyed that he had not yet begun to attack Mr. Ye, and was about to turn around and attack Ye Zhikui, but he saw someone taking the lead over him.

"This beautiful lady, can I sit next to you?" A handsome Frenchman gave a medieval knight's ceremony and said with a smile to Bai Weiwei.

Bai Weiwei's cheongsam reveals the graceful and curved beauty of oriental women. The Frenchman sighed in his heart. It was simply a work of art. His skin looks delicate and smoother than that of European women. I don't know what will happen to the touch later.

"Brother Ye, what does this foreigner say?" Bai Weiwei couldn't understand French. Looking at the Frenchman's strange posture, she covered her chest with one hand and covered her red lips with the other, and asked Ye Zhikui with a smile.

However, Ye Zhikui was like him, and he couldn't understand it, but he guessed it at the action, and replied with a smile: "Who knows, I guess I have to cover my stomach with my hands when I'm full."

Bai Weiwei smiled even happier after hearing this, and her flowers were shaking and looked very charming.

Who knew that the Frenchman actually knew Chinese, raised his eyebrows unhappily and snorted in Chinese: "I don't know where the country people came from. The American banquet level is getting lower and lower. No matter who they are invited, they don't think about who should invite them or who should not."

Why are there so many people in this world who are ignorant? I guess they have to rely on the poor to show their sense of superiority that they think is superior.

Ye Zhikui was about to stand up and talk, but Mr. Li smiled and stepped forward and said to the Frenchman seriously: "Mr. Jagbin, these two are guests I brought, please don't talk randomly."

Ye Zhikui could not have imagined that although Mr. Li talks a lot and has many thoughts, he still has some advantages in being a person.

Youdao is a powerful dragon that does not suppress local snakes. After all, it is still in China's territory. Yagbin obviously knew this young master Li, and he curled his lips. Finally, he tinkered with a few words and turned around and left unwillingly.

Now, Ye Zhikui became a little curious about Mr. Li’s true identity here.

Seeing Ye Zhikui smiling but not speaking, Bai Weiwei thanked Mr. Li Yingying and said, "Thank you for your help."

Mr. Li patted his chest and replied happily: "This is a trivial matter. Since the military government defeated the Russians who were allied with the French, those French guys are unhappy with us Chinese!"

Ye Zhikui suddenly stretched his voice and asked, "I didn't expect that even the French people have heard of Mr. Li's name. I'm sorry, I don't know."

Mr. Li smiled embarrassedly, then drank a glass of wine by himself, and began to talk nonstop: "The family is in decline, it is not worth mentioning. Don't call me Mr. Li long. Mr. Li is short. Just call me Brother Li. Let me tell you, although my family is in decline, I have seized the opportunity in recent years to introduce new machines and new things from abroad. You see the bicycle I rode not long ago. Once it is launched, it will definitely be popular all over the country. And I just visited the three northeastern provinces not long ago. What happened?

I discovered another business opportunity. Do you know about foreign agricultural tractors? Alas, you probably don’t know. Anyway, it’s just a plough. It’s many times faster and more convenient than using cattle to pull it. It’s like walking on flat ground and easy to operate. You have heard of Zhang Zhidong, the governor of the three northeastern provinces. When he heard that I was going to do this, he raised his hands and feet to express his support. Finally, he said that the government would buy as much as I could produce. Think about it, those machines should arrive from the United States soon, and then there will be a lot of money."

Seeing Ye Zhikui's stunned look, Mr. Li continued, "How about it, admire it, and appreciate it. Let me tell you that your brother is not in vain. If you get along with me in the future, you can keep you rich and prosperous for a lifetime, marry a few women and have children. Wouldn't life be beautiful? As for your marriage letter with Miss Bai, don't be too serious. Look, Miss Bai is a new Chinese with a new mindset of equality between men and women. How can you tolerate you marry several women! Wouldn't it be stupid to give up the whole forest for a small tree?"

Bai Weiwei couldn't hold it anymore, and burst out laughing and gave Ye Zhikui a light glance. Look, even Mr. Li knows that you are a lustful person. Bai Weiwei's charming actions made Mr. Li obsessed with him, and he wished he could replace Ye Zhikui and sit next to Bai Weiwei.

Ye Zhikui was relished at first, but he became more and more uncomfortable. He didn't expect that he had become a character who bullies men and dominates women in the mind of Mr. Li. How could he feel?

Seeing that Ye Zhikui's face was a little embarrassed, Mr. Li asked with his head in a slightest voice, "Brother Ye, I wonder where you are now?"

Ye Zhikui sighed and said helplessly: "I am doing the most tiring job in China." It's not him that he is pretending, this sentence is indeed his true words.

Mr. Li patted Ye Zhikui on the shoulder, his eyes were slightly intoxicated, and said comfortingly: "It doesn't matter. I will spend time with Brother Li in the future. I will give you ten times the salary you have now working in a month."

"Sir, look at my eyes. If I count to three, you will be drunk. I will help you in and wake up for a moment." A waiter holding a plate suddenly came over and looked at Mr. Li in a daze, and said to him with a smile.

Mr. Li looked surprised! His eyes really began to fascinate.

"Young Master Li is not drunk yet, thank you for your kindness." Ye Zhikui smiled and stopped the waiter's movements.

Wang Xiaosheng shrugged helplessly, glared at Mr. Li fiercely, and had to turn around and retreat.

Mr. Li touched his chin for no reason, looked at Bai Weiwei's slightly meaningful smile, waved his hand, and said repeatedly: "I'm really not drunk."

Am I drunk? It seems to be a little so drunk.

Just as Mr. Li was deeply entangled, Tian Xiali, the host of the dinner, and a group of ministers from other countries, finally arrived late. Ye Zhikui glanced at him slightly, but he didn't expect that Hirowen Ito and French minister Grelis followed closely behind him. What surprised him was that he actually saw Zhao Bingjun and the three of them laughing and walked in together.

Ye Zhikui lowered his head slightly and pretended to eat seriously.

Tian Xiali greeted everyone in the hall with ease and smiled and said hello while not neglecting the three distinguished guests behind her.

"Mr. Zhao, this is your first time to come to our banquet. I will introduce you well later." Tian Xiali said with a smile. He was very satisfied with the invitation of this powerful figure in the capital.

Zhao Bingjun searched around with his long and narrow eyes, then narrowed his eyes and squeezed out a few smiles, pointed to several Chinese people wearing braids and jackets, and replied: "Mr. Minister, you are polite, this is my honor. I just didn't expect that Mr. Minister, would invite so many celebrities from our country to come, which surprised me a little."

Although the military government did not force everyone to cut their hair and change their clothes, most people spontaneously cut off their braids and took off their clothes that were obviously full of people's tendencies. These guys with braids are obviously a group of old stubborn people.

"There is, there, Mr. Zhao is the most honorable guest. How can they compare with you? Although they were glorious in the past, they only had a few dollars left now." Tian Xiali smiled embarrassedly.

"Human desires are endless. I always hope that I will be able to recover one day. I am afraid that they will think of other things besides money, such as power, and these require weapons to support them. Is it right? Mr. Minister." Zhao Bingjun glanced at Tian Xiali with some meaning and said slowly.

Tian Xiali shrugged and waved her hand, "Mr. Zhao, we Americans have always done legal business."

Ito Hirobuki stepped a little behind Zhao Bingjun and looked at Zhao Bingjun coldly.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Bingjun seemed to feel very keen. He glanced at him suspiciously. Hirobuki Ito showed a childlike smile, "Zhao Jun, there is an old Chinese saying that there is wine today and today is drunk. Since he has come to the banquet, he can only talk about some romance."
