Chapter 182 A dinner party
Chen Lin and his team were busy until the sky turned dark. By the time he and the guards walked out of the big library, there was only a little afterglow left in the sun in the other world.
Chen Lin pinched both sides of his forehead, rubbed his eyes, and said, "I'm a little dazzled. I can't stand seeing these Koman characters too much. It hurts my eyes to see them like ghostly symbols."
"Find a place to eat first. I'm so hungry that my chest touches my back."
Xiao Wu came closer at this time and whispered to Chen Lin: "Mr. Chen, our outpost is hosting a dinner party in the city, and invited the royal family, nobles and wealthy businessmen in the city. Look..."
"Why didn't you notify us of such a thing?"
Chen Lin looked at Xiao Wu and said directly: "Why are you still stunned? I changed my schedule temporarily and went directly to the dinner party!"
"okay!"
Security guard Xiao Wu smiled and immediately arranged for people to re-plan the route - the place where the dinner was held was in the core area of Selia City, which was actually not far from the Great Library.
The convoy of a group of people was very eye-catching. When the minibus arrived at the dinner venue with the military vehicles in front of them clearing the way, there were already personnel from the outpost waiting at the door.
"Ouch, Mr. Chen!"
When Chen Lin got out of the car, he heard a sound, and he saw a familiar face at a glance - Xu Minggeng, whom he had met at the Institute of Biology! This guy waved excitedly to Chen Lin. After Chen Lin got off the car, he couldn't wait to step forward and shake hands with Chen Lin.
"long time no see!"
"It's been a long time indeed."
Chen Lin nodded with a smile. The last time he saw Xu Minggen was when he first went to the Institute of Biology. At that time, the man with glasses was temporarily acting as a tour guide at the Institute of Biology.
"Now that I have been transferred to the External Affairs Office, I am temporarily out of touch with my job as a researcher, and my daily work has become a matter of contact with people from all walks of life."
Xu Minggen smiled bitterly and shook his head. He didn't know who was interested in his character. He lent it to him directly from a familiar biological research institute without saying anything about returning it! Chen Lin patted him on the shoulder, gave Xu Minggen an encouraging look, and then said: "The dinner hasn't started yet?"
"It will be a while, there is still some distance between the time set by those Comans... What, are you hungry?"
Xu Minggen noticed Chen Lin's gaze, and immediately said with a smile: "You have already made the Pengpi here bright by coming. There are all kinds of food prepared inside. You can go in first and take a few bites."
"Then I'm welcome!"
Chen Lin showed no restraint and led the security guards directly into the dinner venue.
The entire castle was completely renovated at the outpost, and all kinds of LED lights were on, illuminating the huge castle as if it were daytime.
Chen Lin quickly adapted to the brightness of the light. He walked to the buffet-like dining area and quickly placed a carbohydrate set meal on his dining plate. The main purpose was to fill his stomach quickly.
The many guards behind him followed suit and sat around, eating the food on their plates to quickly replenish their energy.
Xu Minggen was busy outside for a while and then walked in. "There's going to be a good show tonight, and the princess will come too!"
Xu Minggeng walked quickly to Chen Lin and whispered: "Originally, the plan was that only the royal family and nobles would come. Now that the princess is also here in person, the various projects arranged for tonight will have to be changed."
"Are there many plans prepared?"
"That's natural!"
Xu Minggen adjusted his glasses and said with a smile: "Prevent it before it happens! If Princess Irina comes, we will prepare a feast for her, and we are going to introduce her to our next highlight. ——The Royal City Renovation Plan, which includes urban construction, demolition, immigration, house renovation, etc., and side dishes such as food and movie programs..."
While Chen Lin was eating, he listened to the talkative Xu Minggen introduce the content to himself. When he heard that there was a movie showing in the evening, he smiled and asked, "What movie is showing?"
"We have carefully considered this, and it is more appropriate to show some old movies. We have prepared movies such as "Shaolin Temple" and "The Match", as well as the "Qin Empire" series, "Emperor of Han Dynasty" and movies from related periods. …”
After listening to what Xu Minggen said, Chen Lin suddenly smiled like this.
"It's really a classic, I've seen every one of them!"
"Just tell me if it's appropriate to give it to these people, right?"
"Hmm... after thinking about it, it's really good."
Chen Lin had almost finished eating the food on the plate. He put down his chopsticks and looked at Xu Minggen: "Was this dinner decided before the outpost?"
"That's right. The outpost has had such a plan before, but it has never been implemented."
Xu Minggen explained: “The original plan was to conduct a round of military exercises before the dinner, but now that we have dealt with the invading Orc Empire and quelled the rebellion in the Coman Empire, this is no longer necessary. "
"Aren't there some minor problems and obstacles?"
Chen Lin was referring to the monstrous behavior of some Koman officials when implementing specific projects in the Koman Treaty.
The land promised in the Treaty of Koman has not yet been negotiated. The Koman officials sent out have been messing around in all kinds of ways. In line with the principle of not actively causing problems, the outpost has allowed these people to run rampant for several days.
"She's just a clown. There's no need for our army to be dispatched. Most of those people are doing it in a shady manner. The reason why the princess is not officially enthroned now is mainly because she has not officially ascended the throne. Many people still harbor illusions and hope to be a stumbling block to disgust us. Who let us be What’s the power behind the princess?”
Xu Minggen smiled and said: "After tonight's dinner, these problems will be properly resolved."
Chen Lin nodded and signaled Xu Minggeng to go and get busy. He guessed that the guests invited by the Coman Empire should have arrived. Not long after he finished speaking, Xu Minggeng received a summons from the receptionist at the door. It is said that representatives of wealthy businessmen in the royal city have arrived.
Several representatives of wealthy businessmen were brought into the house from outside by Xu Minggen. The dazzling light made everyone squint their eyes - the intensity of these lights was really too much for people who were accustomed to the dim light of candles and the like. Too exciting! It took a while for the representatives of the wealthy businessmen to open their eyes wide. They looked at the light sources everywhere in the castle in surprise, staring at the strong light emitted by the LED lights, and couldn't help but marvel.
They were all extremely curious about how the people at the outpost did all this!
