At the end of the Shen period, luxury horse-drawn carriages came in one after another outside the yard. Those who got out of the car were merchants and gentry wearing gorgeous clothes or officials and gentry from Wuzhong. These were all coming to the dinner.

Chen Xu also arranged a group of wives, concubines and daughters, and then went downstairs to the hotel lobby to welcome the guests who came to the banquet. None of these guests came empty-handed. The servants behind him carried gifts in large boxes and small bags. Although Chen Xu kept refusing, the guests each said that they were gifts for several marquis concubines and several girls from the Marquis' Mansion. They could not refuse, so soon the hotel lobby was piled up and could not settle down.

The dinner was naturally hosted by several merchants from Wuhuyuan. In fact, dozens of chefs and chefs in Wuhuyuan were busy all afternoon, including various specialty fish, shrimp, crabs, turtles, Jiangnan specialty vegetables, and wild game mountain products. In addition, Wuzhong is close to the sea, so there are seafood such as sea cucumbers and abalone. Anyway, the ingredients are dazzling, and various styles of dishes such as frying, stir-frying, steaming, boiling, and stewing braising are filled with the fragrance of Wuhuyuan.

The sunset is setting, and the autumn wind brings joy.

The autumn scenery in Jiangnan is like a clear blue sky.

As more and more guests arrived, the four shareholders of Wuhuyuan introduced all the guests who were greeted, and some of them who didn't know could only report their own homes. When the county magistrate Jiang Pu and the county magistrate came with a group of officials from Kuaiji County, the entire Wuhuyuan was already crowded with people, and hundreds of gorgeously dressed men, old or young, were gathered around Chen Xu and chatted. The situation was relaxed and pleasant.

"Mr. Marquis forgive me, I'll wait too late!" Jiang Heng, the county magistrate and other officials changed into casual clothes at this time and walked into the crowd to greet Chen Xu.

"Mr. Jiang is exempt from gifts, everyone is exempt from gifts. Official affairs are the most important thing. Why are you late?" Chen Xu smiled and returned the gifts, his eyes fell on Jiang Heng's family who accompanied him.

"Marty, this is the Neizi Ping family, this is the youngest son Chu Feng..."

Jiang Heng introduced a woman following him and a young man of twenty-five or six years old.

"Woman pays homage to the Marquis of Qinghe!" Ping stepped forward to salute Chen Xufu.

"No need to be polite. Come on, please ask the county magistrate's wife to go to the backyard to talk to several marquises. It's so good to treat her~" Chen Xu nodded with a smile and ordered a maid to take Ping away.

"Jiang Chufeng has seen the Marquis of Qinghe!" Jiang Chufeng has a tall figure and a majestic appearance, which is somewhat similar to Jiang Heng. You can vaguely see a trace of Jiang Chuxing or even Jiang Chuyue's style, with clean and neat movements without any pretentiousness.

"Haha, Brother Chu Feng is not a gift. I have heard Brother Chu Xing talk about you. It is a fate to see him today. I will trouble Brother Chu Feng this time!"

"I dare not, but Chu Feng is only afraid that his ability will be insignificant to ruin the Marquis's big affairs!"

"It's okay, we'll talk about this later, everyone..." Chen Xu said hello and looked up at the crowd around him and spoke loudly, "I hurried to Wuzhong, but I don't want my friends to be so hospitable. Today, I will drink and chat with you all. Please go upstairs!"

"Mr. Marquis, please~" Everyone bowed together.

A large group of people surrounded Chen Xu and went upstairs. The private rooms on the second and third floors of the entire restaurant had been fully prepared. At this time, the wine and food were served on the dining table like flowing water. After a bustling arrangement, all guests sat in each private room according to their different identities and groups. The most noble group of Chen Xu and Jiang Heng naturally arranged the largest private room on the third floor.

After taking the seat, Chen Xu was filled with joy and looking at the table full of dishes and a group of officials and gentry present, and after the room slowly calmed down, he said with emotion: "Five years ago, I first came to Wuzhong and had a fight with Xiaobawang here. Time flies, and the moment is man-made. Today, I can gather with Lord Qu Lu Gong Jiang and others to drink and talk happily... "

"What the Marquis said is that five years ago, you came here with the pseudonym Mr. Xu and had a fight with the little bastard. At this point, it became a good story in Jiangdong. It also gained auspiciousness in Zhenze, making Gusu famous all over the world. Now we are reunited today, and we still feel like we are dreaming..."

The table was filled with emotion. Qu Hai stood up with a glass of wine and said respectfully to Chen Xu: "The Marquis is busy with national affairs and patrol the world. This time he came to Wuzhong again, which made the people of Wuzhong and our merchants and gentry happy. Everyone raises their glasses together and wishes the Marquis all the best and long-lasting luck."

"I wish you all good health and good luck for a long time~" Everyone stood up and raised their glasses with their hands.

"Thank you all, please drink together, please~"

"Please~"

Everyone raised their glasses from left to right to signal, and then covered their faces with a robe.

“Haha, good wine ~”

"The food is here, just drink happily. Today, the wine is enough, and you will never return without getting drunk~"

"Of course, there is no need for Mr. Qu to say much. We must accompany the Marquis to have fun today!"

"Don't show off, don't you know if the Marquis claims to be drunk for a thousand cups. I remember the little overlord who was rampant in Wuzhong. Xiang was also easily put down by the Marquis under the dining table. He was lying at your feet. If you want the Marquis to have fun today, I am afraid we all have to lie down..."

"Hahahaha, so what if you lie down? It's enough to get drunk with the Marquis in this life!"

"Not bad, everyone raises their glasses to welcome the marquis!"

"Okay, please~"

"Please~"

After three consecutive cups of wine, the atmosphere on the table quickly became relaxed and warm. The chopsticks rose and fell, and the chatted loudly. The group seemed to have no barriers in an instant. Chen Xu did not have the majesty of the noble and powerful spirit of the left prime minister of the Qin Dynasty and the Grand Master. He kept raising glasses with a group of people. After three or five rounds of wine, his face was still calm and gentle, and some people on the left had already started to turn red.

The wine table has always been the most enjoyable place for communication between men.

Therefore, the topics of talking about are all about astronomy and geography throughout the ages. Of course, the most talked about is the changes in Wuzhong and the southeastern counties and the trends of the court over the years, especially the smooth road plan that shocked the world.

At the request of a group of people, Chen Xu ate and drank and explained the Tantu Plan carefully. When Chen Xu was telling, countless merchants and gentry who came to toast from other private rooms stood at the door with wine glasses or surrounded the corridor outside the private room and listened through the window, fearing that a word would be missed.

"The smooth road plan concerns the long-term prosperity and long-term stability of the Qin Dynasty in the next fifty or even one hundred years. Once the rivers and the chidao hubs are connected together, the entire China territory will form a smooth logistics transportation network. The most important nodes of this plan will almost rely on the ports on the southeast coast as transit. Therefore, the port terminals and large merchant ships are the focus of future development, and the southeast counties are a hot land for the economic development of China in the future. Wuzhong has a superior geographical location, rich resources and developed shipping, and the future prospects are unlimited. If Xianyang is the political center of our Qin Dynasty, then in the future, Wuzhong will become the economic center of our Qin Dynasty and will surely become a place where merchants in the world gather..."

"In the next ten or twenty years, you will surely witness that this lord's statement does not exaggerate. You are all famous scholars in Wuzhong. You will do your best to the prosperity and development of Wuzhong, seek welfare for the people of Kuaiji, and do your best to the economic rise and overseas development of the Qin Dynasty. This is the greatest expectation of you..."

"You may have known for a long time that there are not only Daqin in the world. There are still Western countries outside the Western Regions, including Kangju Dayuan, Daxia Phopoly, and the extreme west places also have Greece, Roman and Egypt, and beyond the East Sea, there are Yingzhou and the South Sea, and there are countless island countries. In the vast sea and sky depths, there are Dongsheng Shenzhou. You can still reach Western countries by boat and travel around the South China Sea for tens of thousands of miles... This vast world, such a peaceful and prosperous era, how can we confine our eyes to just Wuzhong..."

Chen Xu stood up and picked up the wine glass.

"Every man is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. We are the children of China and the descendants of Yan and Huang. We should abandon past grudges and strive together. The prosperity and prosperity of China that has never been seen before us is close to us. You are all personal witnesses of this world change. As long as you work hard, you may still have your rich names in the future history books. After thousands of years, people will mention it, and only then will we know that we ancestors have not embarrassed them... Everyone, raise a glass to drink together, congratulate the Qin Dynasty, congratulate the people of the world, and congratulate our lives in this unprecedented world of change~"

"Congratulations to the Great Qin, to the people of the world..."

Hundreds of people inside and outside the box raised their glasses and shouted at the same time. One by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one,

The sun was setting and the clear sky was slowly dark. When the lights were first on, a large number of people who learned that Qinghe Hou was visiting Wuhu Garden were surrounded outside Wuhu Garden, bathing in the evening breeze of autumn. He heard a neat roar suddenly from the attic on the roof of the brightly lit restaurant, like a dose of a cardiot, which instantly made the whole of Wuzhong feel noisy and lively.

"Haha, it's good to drink with the marquis!" Cao Yuan, the magistrate of Kuaiji County, laughed with a red face.

"Of course, being able to drink with the marquis must be the most enjoyable thing in the world!" Someone immediately agreed.

"I drink a thousand cups of friends, but I don't talk much without any speculation. In this way, I will be considered close friends!" Chen Xu nodded with him with smile.
