Chapter 147 Hug (1200 monthly tickets plus more)
I was drinking with Wendy.
Of course, it was mainly Wendy who drank it, as Wang Hao was indeed not used to such a big bowl of wine.
He was mainly responsible for praising Wendy's drinking capacity.
"Wang Hao!"
Suddenly there was a shout from behind.
This familiar voice, with a hint of surprise, Wang Hao turned around and looked: "Xingqiu!"
The person who came was Xingqiu, whom he had not seen for a long time.
"Haha, I knew you would come." Xingqiu was very happy and trotted to Wang Hao's side. "I was just looking for you."
"Ha, why are you here?" Wang Hao also stood up and pulled out a stool for Xingqiu.
Xingqiu sat down without hesitation: "I had to ask my brother to give me this opportunity with great difficulty. Not only me, but Keqing is here too. Oh, and Xiangling is here too."
"Then is it okay for you to come out? Don't you need to watch over the booth of Feiyun Chamber of Commerce?" Wang Hao said with a smile on his face.
Xingqiu rolled his eyes. "What? You really don't know. Our Feiyun Chamber of Commerce is the organizer. We don't need a booth at all. We are mainly responsible for the main venue."
"Then your responsibility is more important."
"Hey, the old shopkeepers of the Chamber of Commerce will arrange it. I'll just show up symbolically."
Xingqiu waved his hand quietly, then looked at Wendy: "Who is this?"
Wendy was drinking. When she heard Xingqiu's voice, she hurriedly put down her wine bowl.
"Hello, I'm Wendy, the bard from Mondstadt."
His face still had a drunken blush, which made him look very... cute.
(Wendy)
Wang Hao also introduced with a smile: "Wendy is the best bard in Mondstadt."
"It's the best in all of Teyvat!" Even though he had drunk a lot of wine, Wendy did not forget to correct Wang Hao's introduction.
"Okay, the best bard in all of Teyvat." Wang Hao readily agreed.
A few bubbles appeared on Wendy's head: "Hehe."
Xingqiu was confused: "Is he drunk?"
Wang Hao shrugged: "Before you came, he had already drunk more than ten bowls. This jar has just been opened."
Hearing this, Xingqiu immediately looked at Wendy with respect.
Ever since he got drunk on the Southern Cross fleet last time, Xingqiu has been working hard to improve his drinking capacity, but for now, he can't drink that much without using elemental power to cheat.
"Haha, I'm not drunk, I can still drink." Wendy shouted loudly.
Wang Hao smiled and poured him another bowl, then looked at Xingqiu again: "Where's Keqing? Where is she now?"
Although the status of the Wind God is very noble, it has already "collapsed" in Wang Hao's place.
Therefore, Wang Hao now wants to meet Keqing even more.
The two sides have not seen each other for almost two months.
This is just a young man who has just revealed his relationship. After being separated for so long, the longing in his heart is hard to describe in words.
"Keqing should be at the main venue. Although Feiyun Chamber of Commerce is mainly responsible for setting up this exchange meeting, Keqing, as the official supervisor, also needs to go out."
As he spoke, Xingqiu curled his lips and said, "Hehe, as you know, Keqing is always very serious and responsible."
After hearing the news about Keqing, Wang Hao no longer wanted to stay here.
He glanced at Wendy, who was no longer satisfied with the wine bowl and started holding the wine jar.
Wang Hao shouted directly to the busy boss beside him: "Boss, this gentleman Wendy's wine money today is..."
He turned his gaze and pointed at Xingqiu: "This is all blamed on Master Xingqiu of Feiyun Chamber of Commerce."
【Hahahahahaha, God is blaming Xingqiu. 】
[It has to be you, Wang Hao, you really can't give out coins. ]
[Who said that? It has already been released. ]
[It's so funny, this account is quite similar to Zhongli's. ]
【…】
Xingqiu was speechless, but he did not refuse. He nodded to the boss and said, "Write down the bill and send it to Feiyun Chamber of Commerce later."
In his opinion, Wendy might be Wang Hao's friend, and that meant she was his friend. It was just a little money for drinks, and he didn't care at all.
"Come on, take me to find Keqing."
Wang Hao stood up and pulled Xingqiu away.
Behind him, Wendy, who was holding a jar of wine, cleared her originally hazy eyes slightly. She glanced at Wang Hao's back and then continued drinking.
Of course he knew Wang Hao.
He has known Wang Hao since the first day Wang Hao entered the Mond area.
Moreover, Wendy also sneaked into the dinner party held by the Knights of Favonius to welcome Wang Hao and drank a lot of wine.
However, he did not sense anything wrong with Wang Hao and thought he was just an ordinary Liyue person.
Maybe there are some secrets, but...what secret is bigger than his being Barbatos, the god of wind?
Therefore, Wendy's attitude towards Wang Hao was indifferent.
If you give him wine, you are a friend. If you hurt Mond, you are an enemy.
"Boss, give me two more jars, no, three jars, no, five jars!~"
Since someone is paying for it, it would be a waste if I don’t drink it, Wendy stood up and shouted to the boss.
……
Shimen Wine Industry Exchange Conference Main Venue.
"Rearrange the sign over there. It's all crooked."
"Which chamber of commerce does that pile of stuff belong to? Put it away quickly. It doesn't have to be neat, but at least it shouldn't be messy."
"Tell the merchants that they don't need to reveal the recipe of the wine, but they must make information such as dietary taboos clear to tourists and buyers."
"Have all the invited wine connoisseurs arrived? Let them have a good rest, as tomorrow is the real start."
"People from Feiyun Chamber of Commerce, quickly set up the main stage."
"Friends from Mond Wine Industry, Area 1 has been cleared. Please arrange for merchants to move in."
"..."
The one directing the meeting was none other than Yuhengxing Keqing.
At present, only her identity is enough to make everyone present obey.
The main venue is a spacious area provided by the Shimen Qianyan Military Camp.
It is said that it was the training ground for the Qianyan Army, which was large enough to accommodate hundreds of wine merchants.
In exchange for the support of the Thousand Rocks Army, Mond Wine Industry is willing to pay for the Thousand Rocks Army to rebuild a bigger and better training ground.
Normally, it is against the rules for the military to receive funds from other countries.
But this time, there were a few big shots mediating and the deal was finally reached.
It's just that Mond Winery spent a little more money.
Fortunately, in order to show friendship, Feiyun Chamber of Commerce was willing to sell a batch of building materials to the other party free of charge.
Free sale = no markup.
"Master Yuheng, Master Xingqiu and Ambassador Wang Hao are here."
Keqing, who was busy, suddenly received news that made her happy.
Restraining her excitement, Keqing waved to a few people not far away and said, "You guys continue to supervise. I'm going to meet a friend."
"Okay, Master Yuheng."
These are all Yue Haiting's secretaries following Keqing, so they are naturally capable of doing things.
Leave things to your subordinates.
Keqing hurried outside.
Sure enough, I saw the person I had been thinking about day and night at the entrance of the venue.
Keqing quickened her pace and ran towards Wang Hao, opening her arms on the way.
A solid hug.
Xingqiu next to him looked confused. What was going on?
Is this hug... too intimate?
But considering that they had known each other since childhood and had a deep friendship, Xingqiu did not think too much about it and just regarded it as missing each other after not seeing each other for a long time.
He was just a little jealous. When Wang Hao met him, he didn't hug him.
Damn, this guy really underestimated our friendship.
Wang Hao and Keqing had no idea what was going on in Xingqiu's mind.
The two hugged each other tightly, feeling each other's breath, heartbeat, and even pulse.
This feeling of fusion soothes the love in the hearts of both people.
After a while, Xingqiu began to show suspicion.
The two let go of each other.
【Xingqiu must be questioning his life.】
[Hey, doesn't he know the relationship between Wang Hao and Keqing? ]
[This is so funny. Wang Hao didn't even show it to us, so how could Xingqiu know? ]
[Indeed, we strongly protest against the act of turning off the camera. ]
[Yes, protest, protest.]
【…】
"haven't seen you for a long time."
"haven't seen you for a long time."
The two looked at each other and saw the joy in each other's eyes.
"How many days can you stay this time?" Wang Hao asked, completely ignoring the barrage of comments in his eyes.
Keqing looked at the other person's face and said, "The exchange meeting will officially begin tomorrow. It is planned to be held for three days. I will stay until the last day."
"That's right, I'll stay for two more days then."
According to Wang Hao's original plan, he would return to Mond after the first day of opening.
However, since Keqing has been here for three days, it would be fine for him to stay for two more days.
It's nothing more than making Shi Jie suffer.
"Oh, by the way, I'll get Zhiyi over for you."
Keqing suddenly spoke up.
"I didn't expect Zhiyi to know Uncle Tian. At first, Uncle Tian didn't want to let him go. It was only after he said he wanted to come that Uncle Tian let him go."
There was some surprise in her words, as if she didn't expect that anyone Wang Hao liked would be someone favored by Uncle Tian.
[It's so funny, Zhiyi has completely gone off track. ]
[To be precise, it is the right path.] [There is no other way. With Wang Hao's status, he has been courted many times and even given such a big job as closing down the Northland Bank. He must want to work with Wang Hao.]
[Indeed, without the instigation of the Fatui, Uncle Tian is still in good health. Instead of staying with Uncle Tian to learn, it is better to go directly to Wang Hao.]
[Am I the only one who is happy for Shi Jie? ]
[Palu +1 belongs to Yes. 】
The commentators were still very surprised that Zhiyi joined Wang Hao.
This guy, whom they once thought was a bad guy, seems to be on the right track.
This also echoes what Wang Hao said at the beginning, that we cannot judge people today by the evil of the future.
After all, the future is uncertain.
Even... in Teyvat.
"That's great. Shi Jie will definitely be happy." Wang Hao laughed.
Keqing rolled her eyes. She completely understood why Shi Jie was happy.
As mentioned earlier, although she and Wang Hao share the same ideals, their philosophies on doing things are completely different.
Wang Hao likes to delegate power, while Keqing is used to taking everything into account.
Keqing knows that under Wang Hao's command, Shi Jie holds great power (and can be described as a laborer).
Zhiyi's arrival really made Shi Jie happy.
joking,
The three of them walked back to the main venue.
"Master Yuheng."
These are the people from Shimen Station and Yuehai Pavilion.
"Second Young Master."
This is someone from Feiyun Chamber of Commerce.
"Your Excellency the Ambassador."
This is someone from the Mond Wine Association.
People kept greeting the three of them.
The three of them responded with a smile.
"The exchange meeting you hosted was very meaningful and greatly promoted the people-to-people exchanges between the two sides."
There was unstoppable joy in Keqing's eyes when she looked at Wang Hao.
In her eyes, any achievement of Wang Hao is a shining point, not to mention promoting industrial exchanges, which is very consistent with Keqing's political philosophy.
"To be precise, I just pushed it forward. The ones who actually organized it were you and the Mond Wine Association."
Wang Hao had no intention of taking credit for the work.
"You can't say that. My brother has already said that you did a great job. In the next year, the wine industry of both parties will grow exponentially." Xingqiu also praised Wang Hao.
Since meeting Wang Hao, Xingqiu has admired some of Wang Hao's ideas.
This time, Wang Hao received praise from his brother and father, and Xingqiu felt proud of it.
If your friends are great, then you are great too.
After all, birds of a feather flock together.
He probably didn't expect that it might be the case that birds of a feather flock together.
"Thank you for your praise. I'm just fulfilling my duties as an ambassador." Wang Hao said calmly.
The more praise you receive, the more humble you should be.
Of course, if Ningguang was here, Wang Hao would reach out to take credit and ask for benefits.
The main focus is on differential treatment.
Because in front of Keqing and Xingqiu, he is a friend, a lover, and a peer. Humility is better than pride.
In front of Ningguang, Wang Hao is undoubtedly a younger brother. There is no harm in being a little arrogant, which makes him seem more real.
“This booth is obviously ours.”
"You fart, this is mine."
"You're talking nonsense. I paid for it."
While the three were chatting, a quarrel was heard not far away.
Keqing suddenly became serious: "Let's go over and take a look."
Wang Hao also frowned slightly, nodded, and followed Keqing's footsteps.
Xingqiu naturally wouldn't fall behind either.
To the place of quarrel,
I saw two groups of people confronting each other.
Seeing Keqing coming over, both of them brightened up and immediately came over: "Master Yuheng, they are bullying others and stealing booths."
Keqing looked at both sides coldly: "Stop, don't make trouble."
Then he pointed at one of them and said, "Tell me first, what's going on?"
The person Keqing pointed at immediately said, "We just paid the deposit to the organizer and came here to organize the booth, and this guy came over and said the booth was his."
Although the tone was not very nice, there were no exaggerated words.
Keqing nodded slightly, then looked to the other side: "Tell me more."
The man was also very angry and said very loudly: "He is talking nonsense. I paid the deposit this morning. This is my booth. I just left for a while and saw this man throwing things out of my booth."
Behind Keqing, Wang Hao shook his head slightly. It was just a simple question. He just needed to find the registration certificate from the organizer.
Sure enough, Keqing said coldly: "Show me your registration certificate."
"Oh, yes, the registration certificate."
The two men suddenly realized what was going on and started searching quickly.
Soon, two documents with the joint seals of Shimen Qianyan Army, Monde Wine Industry and Feiyun Chamber of Commerce were taken out.
Keqing took it and looked at it, then rolled her eyes: "One is No. 9 in Area 6, and the other is No. in Area . Which one of you went to the wrong place?"
The businessman who said he had completed the registration in the morning immediately spoke up: “I’m right, this is District 9.”
The merchant who came later was anxious: "What? I clearly saw it was District 6 when I came in."
"No way, brother, you must be seeing things. This is District 9."
"Yes, this is District 9."
"You're going the wrong way."
The businessmen watching on the sidelines started to speak up.
The businessman in District 6 turned pale.
Wang Hao understood what was going on. He shook his head and said, "Someone, go check the sign at the door to see if the nail has fallen off."
In Teyvatian Common, the numbers 9 and 6 are also reversed.
If 9 loses a nail, it will become 6.
Sure enough, a guy from Feiyun Chamber of Commerce ran over in a hurry, and then came back with an unpleasant look on his face: "The house number sign fell off."
Now, Xingqiu was the one with an unhappy expression on his face.
After thinking for a while, he stepped forward and said, "Since it's just a misunderstanding, there's no need to argue. Big brother, your losses will be borne by our Feiyun Chamber of Commerce."
He first spoke to the merchant in venue No. 9 whose things were thrown out.
Then he looked at the other businessman who had walked into the wrong place and said, "Don't worry, this is not your fault. We did not do it well. As compensation, Feiyun Chamber of Commerce will give you two a batch of orders."
As soon as these words were spoken, the businessmen watching the show around became envious.
The order from Feiyun Chamber of Commerce.
Don’t talk about how much, as long as you get it, it’s a signboard.
The two quarreling businessmen stopped quarreling.
Feiyun Chamber of Commerce has made compensation, so what is there for them to argue about?
As a result, the two wine merchants who had just had a big quarrel became as close as brothers.
Xingqiu also fulfilled his promise and called the shopkeeper of Feiyun Chamber of Commerce to place a batch of orders.
Wang Hao and Keqing watched from the side.
A crude solution, but it works.
And it is very suitable for Xingqiu, who is rich and willful.
Don't be surprised that he used money to settle the matter. As long as the wine of these two people was not bad, Xingqiu could still make money.
Feiyun Chamber of Commerce is very large, and these wines are consumed casually.
This little dispute is a win-win situation for many parties.
No, someone still has to lose.
After dealing with the two businessmen,
Xingqiu said to the waiter behind him, "Go check. Is it because the nails are of poor quality, or the workers were careless, or someone did it on purpose? I want an answer tonight."
His serious look made Wang Hao suddenly feel like his child had grown up.
The Xingqiu who was fooled by his few words has now become a true elite.
The way he deals with people and things is no worse than mine.
All I can say is that Feiyun Chamber of Commerce’s education is still online.
After finishing the things here,
The three of them continued to wander around (crossed out) and inspect the main venue.
There are ten areas here, some large and some small.
Naturally, some merchants who were assigned to different exhibition areas were dissatisfied.
But as the three people inspected, these dissatisfactions gradually disappeared.
Mond's wine merchants are grateful to Wang Hao for promoting this exchange meeting.
Liyue's wine merchants also don't want to offend Yuheng and Feiyun Chamber of Commerce.
Wine merchants from other countries also do not want to leave a bad impression on the organizers.
After all, everyone can see that this exchange meeting will definitely not be the last one.
Of course, there are those who are dissatisfied, and there are those who are satisfied.
After walking around, even though the three of them were unwilling to accept gifts, they still had a lot of things in their hands.
It's nothing valuable.
Some are glutinous rice desserts, and some are small dolls.
Let the barrage be astonished,
These wine merchants have actually started making peripheral derivative products.
As expected, the wine industry conference discusses more than just wine.
