2199 Magical Dinner 4

When it comes to weather, Montauban feels the same. London's climate has always been known for its cool and foggy. The moist sea breeze of the Atlantic controls the climate of the island. It is rare to have summers here exceeding thirty degrees.

But these days have been really abnormal. Could it be that the visits of the Chinese not only ignited the enthusiasm of the British people, but also ignited the enthusiasm of the Sun God?

In the week before Xiao Letian and his friends arrived in London, the temperature continued to rise, from the normal twenty-six and seven degrees to thirty-four and fifth degrees. This is an era when global warming is still a dream, and it is completely extreme weather.

During this week, major ice cellars in London were doing well, and these ice cubes collected in winter became the best choice for people to cool off.

There are not only cellar ice cubes that can be bought and sold on the market, but also small workshops for making ice cubes. However, the ice cubes produced in this kind of workshop are too small and are mostly frost. They are quite suitable for making ice cream and frozen juices. However, when it comes to a large occasion, it is far from enough.

The royal family and nobles always consume a lot of ice cubes during summer banquets. For example, yesterday, the royal family used ten tons of ice cubes in the sunshade of the South Garden at Buckingham Palace. This huge amount of ice cubes can only rely on winter cellars to store.

Montauban drank iced herbal tea and looked around the hall, but found that there was no ice sculpture. He couldn't help but mocked, "It's said that the Chinese people have strong financial resources, and I think that's just that. There are not even a few ice sculptures for the banquet. Can you rely on these iced cold drinks to relieve the heat?"

Ivan searched around and nodded for a long time, "It's really too much. Do you want the queen to have heatstroke? Such a stingy banquet is simply a laughing stock... But what's going on with the curtain hanging in front of you?"

Just north of the banquet hall, seven or eight meters behind the main table, a red velvet curtain had been pulled up, more than twenty meters long, completely partitioning the entire hall.

The thick velvet is not transparent at all, and no one can see what is inside, but occasionally you can find someone accidentally hitting the curtain, causing a slight fluctuation on the curtain.

"What are these Chinese doing? Is there a stage behind? Will there be a performance later?"

"It should be true. Chinese people are very good at tricks. In order to please the queen, this kind of tricks and performances that don't cost much is the most economical!"

"But I still say the same thing. Now one-third of the guests have arrived. After a while, all of them have arrived. These cold drinks alone will not relieve the heat. If several ladies faint at that time, I see how Xiao Letian should explain it..."

The two guys who sang and sang like crosstalk, and the voices were particularly loud, and the VIPs around them looked at each other side.

At this moment, the resting VIP suddenly shouted, "Look, the curtain is opened...wow!"

The thick curtain had just opened a crack, and the closest guests exclaimed. Ivan and Montauban's words were still in their ears, but everything the Chinese showed afterwards left them speechless.

Who would have thought that behind the curtain was a huge iceberg? People rubbed their eyes and saw carefully that it was really an iceberg made of huge ice cubes... No, no, this is no longer a mountain, but a carved mountain range.

There are cliffs, forest snow fields, Yaochi on the top of the mountain, beasts in the forest, and even small rivers, streams and waterfalls driven by the mechanism flowing in the mountains.

There are specially installed lights behind the iceberg, which refracts in the ice cubes, making the whole hall shine brightly!

"What is this? The Chinese carved a mountain range...and there is wind?" The crowd exclaimed.

Sure enough, I don’t know what mechanism is behind the iceberg. Maybe there is a hidden huge fan blowing. A stream of wind blew from behind the mountain. After the iceberg freezing, it became a natural air-conditioning wind.

At that moment, the heat of the whole hall disappeared, and many noble ladies had goose bumps on their exposed arms.

"What a big deal, this iceberg cannot use more than ten tons of ice cubes!"

I guessed it right. It is more than 20 meters long and has an extremely heavy iceberg with a total of more than 15 tons of ice!

That's not enough. Since the iceberg will melt at any time, there are more than five tons of ice cubes stored in the ice room behind. Many carving masters are paying attention to the changes in the iceberg, and quickly carve the ice cubes where they melt quickly.

At the foot of the iceberg, an artificially excavated stream carries ice water, forming a stretch of Yellow River. There are even farms, cities, hills, and forests on both sides of the river bank.

This is not an iceberg, this is an ice and snow sand table with appreciation function. When people stand here, they feel like they are standing in the clouds and overlooking the Central Plains China.

"Duke, look, there are three Chinese characters on the iceberg. What is this?"

Everyone asked the waiters and maids around, but these three words belonged to Qin Xiaozhuan and most people really didn't recognize them.

At this time, a group of heroic young officers walked into the hall. They were the second generation generals of the Chinese clan. Xiang Ying, who shook the eyes of all women.

"Those three words are Kunlun Mountain, China's ancestral mountain, and the ancestor of Wanshan Mountain!" Xiang Ying nodded at Jin Sanshun. The fat butler of the envoy snapped his fingers with a snap, and then a figure swayed on the roof of the hall.

"There are people on the roof! Chinese people are on the roof..."

The VIPs present looked up and looked at it. Only then did they find that there was a rope set up on the roofs around the hall, and the agile warriors were busy on it.

A roll of white silk was tied to the steel rope. Just like they put in ink and water landscape paintings during the day, they put down the ropes and surrounded the entire hall, and finally presented them to everyone.

"God! This is the continuation of the iceberg. Is this a painting of mountains and rivers in the entire China?"

All the reporters went crazy. They pressed the shutter desperately to record the incredible scene in front of them. These white silk paintings that run through the entire hall wall were covered with mountains and city walls in the east.

The painting and the iceberg were integrated into one, and the continuous lines of the iceberg continued smoothly onto the canvas. The ridge lines were connected together, and everyone's vision suddenly became widened.

At this moment, they were not having a meal in the closed hall, but moved to the vast China China, and were looking down at the earth from the clouds.
