2820 Food and Music Night
Many people may not know that the musical atmosphere in Belgium is not worse than that in Austria, especially in southern Belgium, music will be played in all bars and restaurants from night to night.
It is worth mentioning that Belgium is the inventor of Saxophone. The name of the person who invented the saxophone is Adolph Saxophone!
These Chinese officers and soldiers have received Western education. When they were in Ryukyu, they could hear the performances of European orchestras when they were fine, and they also knew a little bit about European music.
Officers and soldiers like pianos, accordion, guitars, flutes, trumpets, etc. can still accept it, but people think it is a bit strange in this saxophone style.
The whimpering sound is so low and it sounds weird, but the head of state likes this tune. Every day at dinner, special saxophonists come to play.
Even the Belgian king knew Xiao Letian’s preferences and specially invited the inventor of Saxophone to perform for the head of state for three days!
The residents of the town of Sny, feel that they are so happy. Since the Chinese army came here to stay, their quality of life has improved significantly.
Originally, the town with 2,000 people was still quite comfortable but definitely not rich, because the industry here had not developed at all. It relied entirely on agriculture, grape planting and animal husbandry to support itself. Life was only about food and clothing, and it was not a good idea to live a wealth.
But it was because of Xiao Letian's arrival that a huge consumer group was brought about. You should know that the head of state is no longer good for the army. The daily food expenses of the Chinese army have exceeded the British Army and are even close to the Royal Navy's quota.
The average price of all agricultural and sideline products in the entire Sony town soared by 30%, and it was not enough to provide a steady supply of the surrounding areas.
The wine level in the town has been significantly improved to a higher level. In previous years, the aged wines that need to be transported to Brussels and Amsterdam can now be sold at a high price at the door.
Xiao Letian gave all the soldiers a big vacation because in order to protect the head of the East, Leopold II specially placed two regiments of more than 3,000 troops on the southern border of Syne.
No one, including Pierre, could have imagined that Snyni would be attacked here. Any signs indicate that the Emperor is already surviving!
This is the rare holiday after the bloody battle!
Food, wine and of course music. The town of Sny is like a music festival every night. The officers and soldiers who take turns leaving the temporary garrison and enter the town to enjoy a rare holiday.
Whenever the Chinese officers and soldiers gather, free musicians come forward to perform actively, and wonderful performances can always receive generous bounties. After a few days, people in this town are familiar with the Chinese dragon-patterned silver coins, and this stamped exquisite silver coins have even become popular.
The arrival of the two thousand high-end consumer groups made the original town's service industry seem to be clumsy. At this time, the smart villagers began to convert their yard and living room into temporary restaurants and find a chef with superb skills.
In this way, temporary restaurants were full every day. The polite and generous Chinese officers and soldiers completely overturned the inherent impression of these Europeans. These happy scenes made everyone who had experienced them miss them.
Even fifty years later, the children have become old men. When they sit on the bench, they occasionally think of the legendary oriental soldiers and those happy memories.
At night, when the music started, Sny became a sea of joy. The temporary market had already dispersed during the day, but the villagers who set up stalls were unwilling to go home early.
They were reluctant to eat a big meal, so they used the money they earned to buy a glass of beer and a sausage, and stood to enjoy it, just to listen to the music every second.
You should know that in recent days, all of them have famous small bands in Brussels, and many musicians who travel alone. These are all high-level performances. The remote town of Sny, which was once a remote town, never dreamed of enjoying such a level of music.
If you benefit from it, these people will really benefit from the Chinese people!
But old Phyllis couldn't enjoy the wine and music today. He led his own Thomas and looked back at the bright lights of the Triple Leaf Pitt.
"Oh God! There are Spanish flamenco guitarists playing today! I heard that they came from Brussels in a special way..."
"Listen to this cheerful music, people want to dance if they can't stop... No, no, don't think about it, I must go home early to prepare tomorrow's wine!"
"The head of state actually likes my aging, so I have to move out all the best aging brews made by my grandfather in the cellar! Take this opportunity to make more money, and my grandson will have money to go to school!"
The reluctant old Phyllis decided to give up the music and go home quickly to prepare the fine wine for the head of state tomorrow. He soon left the town behind him.
One kilometer from the town is the temporary station of two Belgian regiments. There are guard posts on the road 24 hours a day, and the light of torches is jumping in the dark night. When Old Phyllis appeared in sight, two lazy sentries stopped him.
"Pass...oh, it's old Phyllis...how are you getting today?"
Old Phyllis has passed by the checkpoint every day and is familiar with many soldiers. He smiled and took out the certificate stamped by the mayor from his arms. "It's okay today. The head of state likes to drink my wine. I bought me two bottles!"
"It was brewed by my grandfather himself..." While saying that, he handed over the pass certificate.
The two sentries were too lazy to watch, so they waved their hands, "Okay, okay, you go over! I'll bring us some blueberry sauce from your house tomorrow... Your craftsmanship is really good!"
"No problem... See you tomorrow!"
Old Phyllis led the old horse through the camp, and the entire military camp was quiet and snoring even came from many tents.
Old Phyllis' home is on the border of Fabi, about seven kilometers away from the town of Sny. Standing in his own grape fields, he could even see the black smoke coming out of the chimney of the Seedon factory.
The owner of the vineyard in France and he had relatives, and one of his nieces married to France. Sometimes at noon he would enjoy lunch on the border with his French neighbors.
The farmers who have been busy for a day do not care about the border line. They just want to go there, but no one cares about it!
"This time I must find more good wine. If it's not enough, buy some from France... But the Chinese are fighting with France. Will my neighbors not sell it?"
"Don't care about them anymore, I'll just say I want to buy it. I won't just tell them that they are the chief executives... I can still make a difference at that time..."
Just in his imagination, Old Phyllis saw the steepest hillside, and when he reached the top of the slope, he could see his home and his vine fields.
Just as Old Phyllis was excitedly preparing to go home to celebrate with his wife, son, daughter-in-law and grandson, he was stunned as if he was struck by lightning.
