Chapter 40 The warm and hospitable king!
While everyone was looking at Yang Xu, Yang Xu was also looking at them.
Before they arrived, Yang Xu had already learned a lot of information from Qing Luan.
These people came here because of the disaster at sea, and they had set up camp near the beach and were waiting for rescue. However, no rescue team has come so far.
Two of these people are proficient in Chinese. One of them was the old man trembling as if he could fall at any time, and one of them was the white girl with a hot figure.
Yang Xu’s eyes swept over the six people, and he was quite calm.
Being a stranger in a foreign land, he missed his family during festivals.
But to these strangers, he could not be said to be friendly.
Of course, he didn’t hate them. In fact, he even welcomed their arrival.
Yang Xu had already decided on how to deal with these people.
What was the most precious thing in the world?
The answer was knowledge.
The glory of human civilization was not achieved overnight. It was the experience and lessons accumulated by countless human
ancestors over numerous years.
Some inheritances might have been out of date, but it was precisely these seemingly absurd inheritances that promoted the development and progress of human civilization. Without these experiences that had been passed down since ancient times, there would be no such glorious human civilization.
What was the Great Xu nation lacking now?
It was an inheritance.
It was accumulation.
It was knowledge.
Just like how Yang Xu had once wanted a few teachers to teach in the Great Xu country,
now they were here.
Since they are here, why make them leave?
They already knew about the Great Xu nation.
How could he let them leave?
Yang Xu’s eyes were gentle as if he was
looking at his family’s property. His voice was powerful as he asked, “Who can understand my words?”
Upon hearing his question, Aphra and Yuan Xing Guo raised their hands one after another.
Ichiro Murakami’s eyes flickered, but he did not say anything. He pretended that he did
not understand Chinese at all.
As for the other three, they really didn’t understand.
Yang Xu nodded and ordered.
“Give them a seat and a set of chopsticks.”
Yang Xu had always been very considerate and knew how to cherish his family’s property, especially those very precious ones!
After the order was given, the guards quickly carried two square tables and two small stools
from the room next to the hall.
The beauty placed a pair of bowls and chopsticks on each square table, then served
tea, dried meat, and other things.
Aphra looked at the delicious food on the
table, and her eyes opened widely.
But she looked hesitant, unsure if she should
sit down and accept Yang Xu’s kindness. However, this warm opening made her feel a little more relaxed, and her impression of Yang Xu improved greatly.
She thought that this king was not an unreasonable person. Instead, he was more like a modest and polite gentleman. Perhaps they would have a delightful exchange today.
The others also heaved a sigh of relief.
This situation seemed to be quite good.
Yuan Xing Guo didn’t have so many concerns. He didn’t have much time left, so he naturally didn’t fear death.
Once a person saw through life and death,
they would have fewer concerns.
He sat down without hesitation, picked up the
fruit on the table, and started eating it
directly, not caring if it was edible.
He would not touch meat.
At the very least, he wouldn’t touch it before
he was sure what kind of meat it was.
Seeing that Yuan Xing Guo had sat down calmly, Aphra no longer hesitated. She sat behind another square table but did not take
the food on the table.
“Thank you
for your hospitality, your
majesty.” After Aphra sat down, she expressed her
gratitude and kindness to Yang Xu and explained graciously, “We didn’t mean to intrude on the territory of your country. The cruise ship we were on encountered an accident at sea. In the process of escaping, the lifeboat accidentally came to your territory. We have no intention of disturbing the peace
of your country, and we have no intention of offending Your Majesty.”
Aphra’s neither servile nor overbearing attitude and appropriate explanation made Ichiro Murakami praise her.
However, Yang Xu ignored Aphra’s explanation.
It didn’t matter if he offended her or not.
In any case, everyone would be a family in the
future. Yang Xu had always been very tolerant of his
people. If the opposite party is not one of
them, gently influence them and get them to their side.
If gentleness didn’t work, he could only use physical influence.
Yang Xu had no experience in this, but he could learn. Moreover, he believed that he could learn it well and do very well.
“What are you good at?” Yang Xu asked with interest.
Aphra was stunned by this question.
Her beautiful face was filled with confusion
and astonishment.
What were they good at?
Aren’t we discussing the issue of offending
our country?
Why did it suddenly become what everyone was good at?
Although puzzled, she thought about it and
felt that this question did not involve any privacy, so she answered sincerely, “I’m good at fashion design and jewelry design. My
family is quite famous in the jewelry and luxury industry, so I’ve been exposed to these industries since I was a child.” Yang Xu nodded slightly.
Fashion design and jewelry design. Not bad. It
is quite a talent.
There were no designers who were proficient
in fashion and jewelry design in the Great Xu
nation, and they could fill in the gap in the knowledge chain.
Moreover, fashion and jewelry designs were handy.
After all, who could reject beauty? Yang Xu also hoped his palace maids could become more beautiful and attractive. “I am old already, I don’t have much ability,
Yuan Xing Guo laughed heartily, “The only thing I can show off is my cooking.”
Hearing Yuan Xing Guo’s humble answer, Ichiro Murakami couldn’t help but roll his eyes. He wanted to open his mouth and help him answer this simple question. Was this the time to be humble? Ichiro Murakami cursed in his heart and quickly gave Aphra a look.
Aphra had already known about the plan, so
she naturally understood the meaning of the look. “Mr. Yuan is from ancient China. Modesty is their virtue,” she hurriedly explained, “He is not a regular chef, but a really good one. He has hosted state banquets before. Many kings of countries would even make reservations
three to four months in advance to taste Mr. Yuan’s craftsmanship.” Yang Xu was surprised.
The chef of the state banquet was a unique identity.
In ancient times, he would be a royal chef.
||
The identity of a royal chef was definitely the greatest achievement and pride of the Chinese
cooking world.
After learning Yuan Xing Guo’s identity, Yang Xu showed an appreciative smile. A top-notch chef could greatly improve the
culinary skills of the entire Great Xu nation.
Food was the most important thing to the people. This matter was too important. It was related to the national economy and people’s livelihood.
Yang Xu had never eaten a dish made by a royal chef.
Yang Xu was in a very good mood, thinking about how he would often taste the cooking of the royal chef in the future. He was not stingy
with his praise when he said, “Old Yuan is an amazing person.”
Yuan Xing Guo was full of smiles.
Who wouldn’t like to be praised?
He was also a human, and he liked it.
Not to mention, it was a compliment from a stranger.
Yuan Xing Guo stroked his beard and chuckled, saying he didn’t dare to accept the
compliment. But the smile on his old face was like a blooming flower. When Ichiro Murakami saw this, he secretly
cheered.
The matter was indeed similar to what he had guessed.
He was a wise ruler.
He was being friendly to the people. He was
kind. He was filled with wisdom and courage. The others didn’t understand Chinese, so they
didn’t know what they were talking about. However, when they saw the host and guest talking and laughing, and the atmosphere was particularly warm, they couldn’t help but and let down their vigilance and worry. They were secretly amazed. Thank god for letting us meet a kind foreign
smile
king.
This was a really good adventure, just like a in a fairy tale!
