199 On wine
Halfway through the banquet, it turned into a cocktail party. The guests held up silver goblets, shuttled through different circles, talking loudly about recent interesting news, and burst into laughter from time to time. The whole hall was very lively.?
However, at the end of the banquet table, there was such a small circle, but no one dared to disturb it. There were only four people in this circle. They leaned on the back of the chair casually and gently shook the goblet in their hands. It seemed that there was no difference from other circles, but the people in the entire hall, whether they were noble guests or the most ordinary servants, knew very well that this seemingly ordinary circle represented the peak of power in the entire Xuemanling.
Sawyer took a sip of the wine and looked around casually, but found that no matter which circle around him, he was quietly paying attention to the situation on his side. He couldn't help but feel bored. He raised his head and drank all the wine in his glass, and said, "Lord, we won't have to wait until the banquet ends, right?"
Just as Sawyer spoke, the voices in the entire banquet hall were lowered a little. Obviously, everyone was pricking their ears and wanted to hear what these "powerful people" were discussing. Of course, they were more interested in knowing whether they could get some benefits from the fingers of these powerful people.
"Don't be so impatient," Balgoff took a sip of light wine in a leisurely manner, and smiled as Sawyer was impatient: "This wine is really a waste of resources when you get it."
This is not the wine I poured myself!
Sawyer curled his lips and was about to refute, but saw Balgoff blinking his eyes slightly at him. His thoughts changed and he immediately realized it and said with helplessness: "There is no way, I am a rough man, so I naturally don't cherish wine too much. But then again, Lord Lord is actually more interested in wine, right?"
"Me?" Balgoff curled his lips and turned his head to look at Cialika. "I think the one who is most interested is actually our countess, Heddle. Don't you think the Nord honey wine in your cup is hard to drink?"
"Hmph," Celica snorted with some dissatisfaction, obviously very dissatisfied with Balgoff pulling her into the conversation. She killed the honey wine in the glass in one sip, and poured a glass of spice wine and said, "That's right, but how can you pour your wine into my glass?"
"If you disrupt this spice wine, it will indeed destroy the taste of the wine. Sawyer, what do you think?"
Balgoff nodded and looked at Soya opposite him. Soya shrugged and picked up the kettle on the side: "It's not simple. Just use ice water to rinse the cup, and it can also cool the cup and make the wine taste better."
"This..." Balgoff and Silica were slightly stunned, then they laughed at the same time, clapping their hands and shouting: "Okay! It's worthy of being the Snowman Arrow!"
"Okay, you two!" Sawy rolled his eyes: "Aren't I the one who is busy with the end?"
After saying that, Saulya reached out to pick up the wine glass in front of Celica, poured out the spice wine in the glass, and then rinsed it with ice water, then filled a glass of wine for Celica.
"I'm really troubled you."
Celica took the wine glass and nodded to Saoya. Balgoff also nodded slightly to Saoya. However, Saoya looked unhappy and complained softly: "Every time I run errands, I've just been back for a long time!"
After hearing Sawyah's words, Celica didn't say anything, but Balgoff looked embarrassed and comforted her with kind words: "I know it's not easy for you. Come on, I'll fill you with a glass of Beihai sake."
As soon as he finished speaking, Balguff got up, walked to the middle of the long table to get a pot of wine, and then walked to Sawyer himself to fill his glasses for him, which made the guests in the hall stunned. This lord is really a bit unique!
The generals and ministers of Xueman Corps also felt warm in their hearts and their loyalty to Balguff increased a little. Working under such a lord must be much better than those with violent personalities.
But Saoya didn't appreciate it. He raised his cup and shook it, but did not put it in his mouth. He looked a little angry: "It's just a cup of clear water."
"Then what wine do you want?" Balgoff continued to smile bitterly, but did not refute, but instead looked like Ren Sautie asked.
"After the banquet, how about let me go into your cellar and pick a few bottles by myself?"
"No!" Balguff refused decisively and stretched out a finger: "A bottle!"
Sawyer shook his head and said firmly: "Three bottles!"
"Add a discount, how about two bottles?"
Balgoff smiled bitterly again and stretched out another finger. However, as soon as he finished speaking, he heard Sawyer scream: "Document!"
"I lost!"
Balgoff slapped his thigh and saw Soya’s appearance. Why didn’t he understand that this guy wanted “two bottles” from the beginning!
After making an appointment with Balgoff, Sawyer's expression also relaxed and looked at Celica on the side: "Cialika, how about giving me some decent clothes for her past friendship?"
"this……"
Silica hesitated, but Sawyer curled his lips to Balguff: "Cloth, tailor, etc., just ask our Lord Lord to ask for it. We are small families, how can we compare to Lord Lord Lord~"
"good!"
Celica's eyes lit up and she agreed immediately, but Balgoff next to her smiled bitterly. This kid is really not at a loss!
No, it’s not just not to suffer any losses, he’s simply a robber!
Balgoff sat on the chair with a bitter face and started drinking a slutty wine. Sawyer and Celica did smile at each other, shaking up their glasses, touching them in the air, and ending the brief discussion with a satisfied smile.
Hognard, who was sitting aside, was extremely depressed. Although he knew that these three must be discussing something big, he couldn't understand a word. After these three men decided everything, he drank three bottles of wine in front of him.
Hognard was depressed, but the other guests were even more depressed. Hognard at least knew that Sawyer, the Lord and the Earlfriend were talking about something big, but for these guests, they heard only a debate about drinking, and whether it was political or military, there was no substantive information that could benefit themselves and their families. Such a banquet was simply a waste of time for them!
However, this is exactly the result that Balgoff and the others want. Even if someone is interested, they can guess that they are not only discussing alcohol, but guests who lack key information cannot guess what the three of them are discussing!
