Chapter 249 Banquet (1)
Compared with them, the clothes I was wearing were completely overwhelmed by all kinds of gorgeous evening dresses when I stood in the crowd. Fortunately, I was still in good taste, so I wouldn't be able to get in.
"I thought they would dress like this when they were filming a romantic TV series, but I didn't expect that their clothes would be even more outlandish than those in the TV series." Jiang Wan clicked her tongue in amazement.
"Art comes from life." Zhou Ji chuckled.
"Let's go in too." Jiang Wan looked up at the majestic castle in front of her and didn't know what to say.
The style of this castle is more European, with narrow windows, semicircular arches, low domes, and the use of a large number of columns and vaults of various shapes to achieve an aesthetic effect that is solid, heavy, balanced, stable, and saturated with strength. It is narrow and narrow.
The windows form a strong contrast with the vast space inside.
In front of the castle is a spacious manor. Although there is no greenery now, various rockery stone statues are used as decorations, which still set off a spacious atmosphere.
Looking at the castle as a whole, although it is not as exaggerated as the Western castles, it is still more than ten stories high, which is already a remarkable existence in this community.
A stone road in the manor leads directly to the gate of the castle. Many people's vehicles drive directly to the gate of the castle. A waiter will ask them to get out of the car, and then drive the car to a parking lot not far away.
Jiang Wan looked at the cars coming and going, wondering if everyone in the entire community was here today.
Among the rows of luxury cars, Jiang Wan's affordable car looked like a gray duck among the swans, looking very different.
So when she parked her car at the door, no waiter came to open the door to greet her.
"It seems we are being disliked. Get out of the car yourself." Jiang Wan laughed at herself.
Father and Mother Jiang didn't take it seriously, so they went in alone without being greeted. It's not like they didn't have long legs. They took out the fruits and vegetables packed yesterday from the trunk and put a full bag in a plastic bag.
"Wait for me here. I'll park the car and go in together." Jiang Wan sat in the driver's seat and said hello, then drove towards the parking lot.
It was rare for Jiang's father, Jiang's mother, and Jiang's milk to see such a big scene. While standing aside waiting for Jiang Wan, they did not forget to marvel at it.
Looking at the diamonds set on this girl's body and the gems on the woman's hand, I felt unreal for a moment.
The life here is completely different from the life in the resettlement center. The natural disaster has left countless people unable to eat, unable to afford medical treatment, and hungry and struggling. However, the people here seem to be unaffected and continue to live their lives.
A life of luxury and extravagance.
The joys and sorrows between people are not connected. Wealth, freedom, happiness, and the chance to live only belong to a very small group of people.
At this moment, they seemed to understand Jiang Wan's efforts. If they wanted to survive the natural disaster, it was not just enough to eat and drink. They also had to become such a small group of people to have the opportunity to choose their own destiny.
Of the eight billion people in the world, less than 100 million will survive in the end. It sounds like this number is not small. If the population of Hualong is converted proportionally, that is, only less than 16.25 million of the 1.3 billion people will survive.
Even fewer people can survive because of the changes Jiang Wan is worried about. This is a cruel elimination process.
If you want to live, you have no choice but to fight hard.
"Hey, you guys delivering food, don't stand at the door and disturb the customers. Go through the back door." A waiter in a black suit came over to chase people away.
"The food delivery person?" Dad Jiang didn't know who he was talking about at first. When the waiter walked up to him and almost pointed at his nose, Father Jiang realized that he and the others were being treated as food delivery people.
Look at the plastic bag in his hand. Not to mention, it really looks like delivering food.
"We are here for a banquet." Zhou Ji's eyes must have been fixed on Jiang Wan, and he turned around to explain after hearing the waiter's words.
The waiter looked Zhou Ji up and down, "Don't think you can sneak in if you dress nicer. Where are the invitations? Do you have an invitation? There are a lot of people who want to come in and eat and drink today. Don't think I can't tell. I
I’ve been staring at you for a long time.”
Several people were speechless. They really didn't have an invitation. The invitation was at Jiang Wan's place, and she hadn't come back from the car yet.
"You can't take it out. Let's go. Let's go quickly. If you don't leave, I will call the security guards to arrest you." When the waiter saw that a few people were not moving, he started to grab Zhou Ji and wanted to drive them away. Don't block him here.
Facade.
How could Zhou Ji let him pull at him? He stretched out his hand to grab his stretched out arm and gently broke it. The waiter screamed in pain, "You are trying to cause trouble. Let go. If you don't let go, I will call someone."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Ji let go of him. Before he could feel proud and feel that he was powerful, a golden piece of paper was slapped in front of him.
"The invitation you asked for."
Jiang Wan's voice was cold and emotionless. Faced with such a contemptuous attitude, she didn't even bother to say anything extra.
The golden paper was not only photographed in front of him, but also photographed into his heart. Everyone in the community knew that the gold-plated invitation was Yan Wen's personal invitation. Once it appeared, it must be Yan Wen himself.
To invite people.
There are very few invitations like this. Anyone who can come up with such an invitation must be a big shot. But these few in front of me don't look like big shots. Could they be fakes?
The waiter called unbelievingly. Today's date and Jiang Wan's name were written in neat handwriting. Both the handwriting and the materials used in the invitation were not fake. This was a genuine invitation, and it was made by Yan Wen himself.
Invite the person.
Thinking of this, the waiter broke out in a cold sweat. If they mentioned what happened just now in front of Yan Wen, wouldn't they be doomed?
The waiter nervously wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, changed his arrogance and domineering attitude, and instantly put on a dog-legged smile on his face, "I'm blind, and I didn't see that you are distinguished guests. Please come in, please come in."
"
No one had the intention to argue with a doorkeeper. Only Jiang Nai glared at him angrily and followed him through the door.
As soon as I stepped into the large glass door, the warm air rushed in, and the cold air brought in from the outside instantly had nowhere to hide.
"You can give me the coats you are wearing. Just ask the waiter to pick them up when you leave." The man looked at the faces of several people and said with a flattering smile.
Jiang Wan took off his down jacket and asked, "Where is the trading place?"
"Just walk straight over there." The waiter took their coats and pointed to the left.
The space inside is larger than Jiang Wan imagined. The main hall just entering the door is as big as a large supermarket. It is very exquisitely and beautifully decorated. There are already many people here, all dressed in exquisite clothes, standing together in twos and threes to say hello.
