Chapter 704 Banquets and Sudden Arrivals
The bright moon hangs high and the sky is full of stars.
Buffalo, Long Island Estate.
Surrounded by lush forests and clear rivers, the Garriott family castle “White Swan Castle”, which is white as a fairy tale, is already brightly lit, and every corner is full of cheerful atmosphere.
The magic plant chimes and the alchemy lamps powered by the improved “Magnetic Stone” together constitute the lighting system of the castle. In this era when even the Royal Palace mainly uses gas lamps, whale oil and candles, it is already an unimaginable luxury for ordinary people.
It can be said that in every ray of light, what is refracted are the rays of light of Golden Lion.
Although tomorrow will be the official welcome ball attended by governors of various territories, garrison officers, members of parliament, big businessmen and other powerful figures in the kingdom’s new continent, today’s small private banquet hosted by Garriott patriarch is also grand enough.
In addition to the four core members of the family, Alwin, Olivia, Anita and Angie were all present.
The three chief officers of the Hou Guo Army, Robert, William, and Baldwin; several civilian officials represented by Hawkins; the first mate of the Horn of the Storm, Rees, and Gary, the bosun; and the elder sister’s A total of more than a dozen core retainers of the Garriott family were also present.
On the guest side are Queen Levina, Chief Female Officer Linda, a group of entourages with extraordinary identities and two Great Knights.
At a long oak table covered with white cotton tablecloth, the guests and hosts took their seats in accordance with the dining etiquette.
pa! pa!
After helping Rivina pull out the chair and take her to a seat, Alwin sat down at the end of the long table away from the door and gently clapped to signal the banquet to begin. Turning his head and introducing her by the way:
“Your Majesty, the new continent is indeed far beyond the mainland in terms of its abundance of products. Hersey has carefully designed enough to keep you from staying in this seven-day period. The repeatable menu will definitely make your trip worthwhile.”
The pride in the words of a good helper is obviously far above the properties of the new continent.
Liweina’s eyes flickered, her hands clasped slightly:
“Oh, I’m looking forward to it, Mr. Garriott.”
According to social etiquette , changed into a purple evening dress, and Liweina, who showed her white shoulders, sat in the first position of Alwin’s right hand. Olivia, who was equally radiant as the Garriott’s hostess, sat at the other end of the long table, face to face with Alwin.
The retainers and the guests sit staggered, the banquet is not just a simple meal, but the social table is the key point. The subordinates of the two sides will improve mutual understanding, and the communication in all aspects will be smoother in the future.
It is also one of the main purposes of this private banquet.
It’s a pity that Milan, who brought Apsuya home to see her parents, has not returned until now, missing the opportunity to get close to the core power circle of the kingdom.
The steward Midora and the “night spirit” head maid Sara are fully responsible for the banquet process. Although the two are very smart but don’t know much about human society, they are not stage fright at all.
Bell Bell Bell.
Midora gently shook the silver bell in her hand, the banquet began, and the beautiful night spirit maids filed in.
There are two main types of pre-dinner drinks that Olivia ordered today, and guests can choose by themselves, one is maple beer, which is a specialty of the new continent, and the other is born in Buffalo. Rainbow Cocktail.
As for the most important category of white wines in aperitif wines, it was abandoned by girl without the slightest hesitation. The reason is naturally because it is hard to describe whether it is red grapes or white grapes. The production process of
“This glass of colorful wine is really beautiful and delicious.”
Liweina tasted a sip of white rum, coconut liqueur, and mint liqueur The Rainbow Cocktail made of wine, orange juice, grenadine, ice cubes and orange slices is sweet and sour and very appetizing.
“Buffalo is rich in wine and fruit. This drink, which is mixed with beverages, wine, juice, etc., is called Cocktail. If Your Majesty likes it, you can let the female officials have a good time with our chef. Let’s talk.”
They didn’t talk about any national major events at the dinner table, and Liwena’s itinerary in the new continent was seven days, so she wasn’t in a hurry. Alwin was more curious about royal gossip:
“Isabella Your Majesty still living at St. James’ Palace after she abdicated?”
“mother went with grandfather After studying, the kingdom wants to replace Cyrus, in addition to the comprehensive national strength and military strength, the power of the title Knight is the most important.
But grandfather thinks my aptitude is better than mother’s Even better, temperament surpasses the genius elder sister and is the most likely member of the royal family to be promoted to the title. And I have made an appointment with Anne to become the rare female title Knight in the entire tulip history, right? , Annie?”
Also wearing a gorgeous dress with her long emerald hair up, Anita sat opposite Liweina, putting down the dried maple beer in her hand, Gently exhaled the sweet smell of wine:
“Of course, but I may be one step ahead, Wella.”
If Liweina can break through the fourth rank Depending on the luck of illusory, Anita, who has the Alwin guarantee and protect, has almost got the admission ticket to the title of Knight in advance.
It may not even take a year or two that long.
Pushing the food cart, the well-trained maids start serving the dishes in unison.
It is different from a normal banquet, although there are mainly six categories: appetizer, soup, salad, main course, main course, dessert. But because the guests at a table are all transcenders, the amount of dishes is far beyond the normal standard.
The appetizers are the extra amount of magic bison fillet with oil-soaked foie gras, caviar seafood platter, and butter chicken crispy box, which is quite satisfactory.
The next soup is the flesh and blood of the giant species of “sea devil” cultivated with “artificial meat technology”, the sea monster clear soup, and the “Glass Gem Corn”, which is a transformation product of [Golden Chain]. “Sweet Corn Soup.
Although it may not be better than the palace chef’s craftsmanship, because the novel ingredients have a unique flavor, all the guests, including Liweina, couldn’t help clicking one’s tongue in wonder.
“This salad is so rich.”
The new continent features Cobb Salad, which includes avocado, blue cheese, bacon, fried chicken, lettuce, tomato, and is obviously far lighter The vegan salad is more in line with a Great Knight’s taste.
Soon, the banquet progressed to the main course.
The enchanted bison from the new continent, large pieces of charred tomahawk steak; the charred garlic and creamy cheesy lobster.
The highlight is the new continent’s special main course, each person a roast turkey, turkey belly is a duck, duck belly is a chicken, chicken belly is sausage and bacon.
For the transcender, the main course of solving this kind of weight is just a piece of cake, and the raw materials are all magical creatures transformed by [Golden Chain], which are also standard Knight Cultivation resources.
Can you believe that any duck you pick out on this table is more capable of fighting than a man in his prime?
The devil is in the details.
Not only eating happily, but the Queen’s entourage in mind, could not help but raise the Garriott family’s potential power assessment to several levels again.
Even chatting with Garriott’s retainers, he couldn’t help but restrain the kind of aloof and remote.
While the main course was on the table, Midora had instructed the “night spirits” to take out the red wine brewed by a group of girls as table wine for the king grades to taste.
The fruit rate of Cabernet Franc is about 92.5%, the juice yield is about 62%, and the wine yield is about 90%. Last year, a group of girls used 1000kg of Cabernet Franc and stepped out about 570kg of grape juice, and finally made 520kg of high-grade wine.
In the end, 693 bottles of standard 750ml wine were filled, which was originally the best part of the batch of Cabernet Franc. It is also a treasure that Alwin ordered not to be sold.
Only the four core members of the Garriott family and Queen Levina have a share, even if the Queen’s entourage is high enough to be eligible to serve the table, they stretch their necks and have no chance to taste it.
Turn the goblet, and the sweet aroma of wine lingers on the nose.
Liweina takes a sip, showing a peach red wine flowing over the tip of the tongue. The wine is medium-bodied, fragrant, with delicious acidity, smooth and soft in the mouth, and fragrant grassy notes. Sweet aromas of mulberry and blackcurrant.
After unconsciously drinking this glass of wine, I couldn’t help but admire:
“Well, it’s delicious, although I haven’t studied wine, I still can’t believe it was Anne and you guys made it by yourself. It came out.
By the way, I remember that the harvest season of Cabernet Franc will last until the end of October. Would you like to teach me how to make wine? The wine made by yourself will definitely be better. Good Hah!”
Anita, whose taste buds were also conquered by this unique wine, agreed with one sip:
“No problem!”
Of course, using the The material impossible is the 4,000 acres of vineyards planned on Long Island. The land was leveled last autumn. The seedlings were transplanted in late April this year. There will be a small amount of fruit next year, and it will take 4-7 years to enter the high-yielding period.
According to the best managed vineyards in Buffalo at present, the annual output per mu can reach about 2000kg in four years, and that is when the high-end products of Long Island Winery will be launched on a large scale. .
There is a gimmick like Your Majesty, the Queen, who brews wine herself, just like 20 years of cellaring and 50 years of cellaring. After adding a drop to each bottle, tsk tsk, the value will double immediately!
Hey, what seems to be exposed?
Liwena didn’t expect so much, and she gave Anita a high five:
“Okay, that’s for sure.”
Period.
Livina also stood up and toasted to Olivia, the hostess who had meticulously prepared all this.
Olivia, on the other hand, looked back at Your Majesty, the queen who was happily chatting with her fiancé after Olivia responded with impeccable etiquette, her delicate eyebrows twitched slightly. .
I didn’t wait for the girl to ponder the source of the sudden and unfathomable mystery of the hostility in her heart to the Queen Your Majesty, out of the Sixth Sense of the senior official wizard.
clang! clang! clang!
The distant sky suddenly heard the distant sound of a bell that penetrated one’s soul.
A group of people with corresponding permissions in the audience immediately connected to the [spirit net network] that spread throughout the new continent.
Towards a dark in the sky in the Southwest, it seems like a fire burning through the night sky.
It’s more beautiful than the aurora.
There is no need to turn on the spirituality vision. Alwin and Olivia, who are wizards, can clearly feel the howling wind and torrential rain in the spirituality world.
“This is the largest overflow of spirituality this year? How could it be at this time?”
