Chapter 445 Banquet

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    By dusk, more than twenty monks had come to the back garden of Junshan Temple, including Taoist disciples from the pavilion, as well as casual cultivators and those from aristocratic families.

    Zhao Ran didn¡¯t know most of the people inside. After being introduced by Dongfang Jing, Pei Zhongze, Rong Niang and others, they saluted each other, and they seemed to be familiar with each other.

    Seeing that it was getting dark, Zhao Ran ordered Jin Jiu and others to fetch a dozen red lanterns and hang them around the courtyard wall.  Jin Jiu and others were about to twist the fire and light the lanterns when they saw Rong Niang casually playing out a string of shiny beads, one inside each lantern, which lit up without fire, illuminating the back garden as bright as day.

    It turned out that this was a genuine night-light pearl. Zhao Ran was stunned when he saw it. He couldn't help but be a little distracted by Rong Niang's family background. He secretly thought that he would go back and ask Dongfang and others about which family this girl came from and why she acted like this.  Generous.

    Seeing that the lights were on and the bonfire was burning, the butcher even came out in person and took two cooks to work on cutting the mutton. Zhao Ran guessed that the banquet was about to start, so he quietly retreated to the corner, thinking in his heart  Thinking about the thank you note for a while.

    Zhao Ran is quite good at speaking in public. Speeches similar to thanks are nothing more than welcome, review, thanks, and hope.  But if you want to speak well, speak brilliantly, and make people want to listen, you must add some tricks.

    For example, try to name all the monks present. If you are familiar with it, you might as well make a joke, and if you are not familiar with it, you should fully express your gratitude. Intersperse a few small jokes and tell a few obscure dirty jokes - well, this  One thing should be considered carefully, and it must be subtle but not explicit, and that's about it.

    Of course, in order to be able to infect people, Zhao Ran also added his own hardships when seeking Taoism in his manuscript. By the way, he could also bring in the great alchemist Chu Yangcheng to tell the story. Didn't a few monks just hear that he was  Do you think that you don¡¯t think highly of yourself?  It just so happens that Zhao Ran is very good at pulling tiger skins!

    In short, this speech should fully express my gratitude. After all, whether it is for Dongfang's sake or Rongniang's sake, people who come all the way to Junshan to celebrate their promotion to the post of governor are doing it for themselves.  Face, these will be your connections in the future, so you must do your best to maintain them.

    Seeing that the manuscript was almost finished, Dongfang Jing went up to the small pavilion alone, and the monks gathered around the pavilion.

    Only Dongfang said respectfully: "Fellow Taoists, today's banquet is very innovative, natural, easy-going, leisurely and thoughtful, which is in line with the essence of my Taoism. Dongfang is very happy in my heart and thanks Rong Niang for her hospitality and careful preparation. Originally, Dongfang was very happy.  This congratulatory banquet was convened by Rong Niang, but since she regards me, Dongfang Jing, as her elder brother, I will greet you all on her behalf as an elder brother, and thank you all on her behalf, thank you for your hard work, and thank you for your consideration.  , let¡¯s have a drink first, and after we finish, please come up and thank you all.¡±

    Zhao Ran also picked up a wine glass and drank the wine in one gulp. He thought to himself whether he should take out some of the exotic flowers and fruits left by the White Tiger and squeeze them into juice or have them as dessert after the meal?  Dongfang and Rongniang worked so hard for me, I really feel bad.

    But after thinking about it, I still couldn¡¯t bear it.

    I heard Dongfang Jing say from the pavilion: "Now, please invite the rightful master to enter the pavilion to thank all fellow Taoists."

    Zhao Ran put down the wine glass, straightened his Taoist robe and crown again, walked up the three steps, entered the pavilion and came to Dongfang Jing, and nodded to Dongfang Jing.

    Dongfang Jing's eyelids twitched and he asked Zhao Ran with his eyes: "?"

    Zhao Ran smiled and nodded in response, then turned around and saw Rong Niang at the foot of the steps and asked softly: "How many words do you want to say first?"

    Zhao Ran continued to smile and nodded, and then said to the monks: "Welcome to all Taoist friends to the picturesque Junshan. On behalf of all the Taoist friends of Junshan Temple and the 40,000 people in the Junshan area, I would like to extend my warmest greetings to all Taoist friends."  Welcome!"

    After a pause, Zhao Ran felt a little regretful when he saw no one applauding below. These people still lacked experience in listening to speeches, otherwise the atmosphere would have been much better.  But it doesn¡¯t matter, as long as I can express my gratitude clearly and leave a deep impression on everyone.

    So, he continued: "To be honest, Xiaodao's promotion to Wujiyuan is responsible for this responsibility. It is just a small thing in my Taoist school's Shifang Jungle. It is just a small progress for me, Xiaodao, but it makes all fellow Taoists not far away."  I came thousands of miles away to celebrate, but I feel so ashamed"

    Zhao Ran¡¯s speech lasted about one stick of incense, neither too long nor too short, and the time was just right. After finishing his speech, he once again clasped his fists and bowed his head, bowed deeply to the monks present, and then walked out of the pavilion gracefully.

    There was sparse applause in the back garden, and Zhao Ran looked around and saw Jin Jiu and other members of the Junshan Temple family applauding and cheering.  As for the monks, they looked at each other, and then glanced at Zhao Ran with various strange eyes.

    Zhao Ran felt something was wrong and evenI was busy recalling whether there were any mistakes or omissions in what I just said. I thought about it for a moment, but I still couldn't figure it out.

    Suddenly Dongfang Jing coughed twice, and then said: "Haha, today's banquet turns out to be a double happiness! Junior Brother Zhao has been promoted to the post of Governor of Wuji Academy. Indeed, um, that is worth celebrating um,  Well, below, we invite Rong Niang to come up and thank everyone. Rong Niang¡¯s breakthrough to Huang Guan this time is awell, it is also a great joy"

    Zhao Ran¡¯s face turned red and he wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in.  It didn't matter what Rong Niang said later. He didn't listen at all. He stumbled out of the moon cave door, returned to his temple blessing room, threw himself on the bed, and stuffed his whole head into the quilt. For a long, long time  ¡­

    After an unknown amount of time, someone knocked on the door. Zhao Ran heard that the footsteps were undoubtedly Rong Niang's, and he was too shy to pay attention.

    Rong Niang continued to knock on the door: "Is there anyone there?"

    "no one!"

    With a "bang" sound, Rong Niang kicked the door open and saw Zhao Ran covering his head with a pillow and quilt, curling up on the bed. She stretched out her hand to lift his quilt. Seeing Zhao Ran's unhappy look, she suddenly couldn't help laughing.  : "Haha, Zhao, Zhao Zhiran, why are you so funny!"

    ¡°Don¡¯t base your happiness on other people¡¯s pain!¡±

    "Haha, okay, haha what about that, congratulations to Senior Brother Zhao on his promotion to the Chief of Staff of the Wuji Academy to the Chief of Staff, haha"

    "Besides, I've fallen out with you!"

    "Your hair is really fun. I can touch it inch by inch."

    Zhao Ran slapped Rong Niang's hand away and said, "Don't hit someone in the face, and don't touch someone's head when you touch them. Haven't you heard of that?"

    "Okay, okay, haha, let's get down to business, I'm here to sincerely congratulate you"

    Zhao Ran sat up suddenly, stared at Rong Niang, and said seriously: "I really fell out!"

    Rong Niang laughed for a while, sat on the edge of the bed, reached out and patted a piece of paper on Zhao Ran's forehead: "Congratulations to Zhao Damiao on his promotion to the capital of Zhao, this is a congratulatory gift!"

    Zhao Ran caught the paper that fell from his forehead and found that it was a talisman. When he looked carefully, it turned out to be a fifth-level talisman!

    Rong Niang smiled and said, "Don't be angry. It's not my fault. Who knew you were promoted?"

    "What kind of talisman is this?"

    "With the Fierce Yang Dan Fire Talisman, as long as you fight it out, you can kill a mage or something without any effort. How about it? Are you satisfied?" Rong Niang asked with a smile.

    "Well, I accept your apology!" Zhao Ran replied sincerely.
