Chapter 248: Small Collision of Culture

  Liu Chengfeng and other major generals of the delegation exchanged information with each other on what happened after entering the State Guesthouse, and then said no more.

Everyone’s eyes began to fall on the Tsarist Russians who were looking at their own troops curiously around the State Guesthouse, intentionally or unintentionally.

They are naturally not surprised by the Tsarist Russians. After all, there are tens of thousands of Tsarist Russians in Dalong working in various state capitals to build city walls, dredge rivers and other things to benefit the people. This is not the first time they have seen Tsarist Russians, so there is really nothing to make a fuss about.

.

The reason why they set their sights on the Tsarist Russians who were also watching them and others curiously was because they wanted to confirm whether there were any potential dangers in these Tsarist Russians.

As the saying goes, a strong dragon cannot overwhelm a local snake. After I and others arrived at someone else's territory, I had to be careful about everything.

  After all, this is a matter of life and death, so don’t be careless!

 Under the guidance of Gogolov and a group of soldiers under his command, the carriages and horses of the Dalong Mission gradually entered the State Guesthouse of Tsarist Russia.

Gogolov, who had been silently observing the expressions of Liu Chengfeng and other major generals, did not notice that the number of servants wearing ordinary coarse linen clothes and bamboo hats guarding both sides of the carriage and horses in the Dragon Mission had quietly decreased by about 30%.

.

Because the surrounding Russians were focused on Liu Chengfeng and other important figures, they also did not notice that the number of servants seemed to be smaller.

“Dear envoys of the Great Dragon, Lord Wu Lining is waiting for your arrival in the main hall, please.”

After listening to the translation, Liu Chengfeng nodded slightly to Gogolov, straightened his robes and walked into the dim main hall without changing his expression.

Song Yang, He Lin, Yang Huaiqing and others consciously lined up in two lines and followed Liu Chengfeng.

After a brief period of discomfort, Liu Chengfeng and others had adapted to the light in the main hall. They first glanced at the layout of the spacious main hall, and finally stopped at the Imperial Minister of Tsarist Russia, Urinen, who was sitting on a chair.

on the body.

Liu Chengfeng silently looked at Wu Lining, who had white hair and beard but shining eyes. Could it be that Wu Lining was looking at Liu Chengfeng, who was in his prime and with a majestic figure.

The two people's eyes intertwined and they looked at each other for a moment. At the same time, they smiled slightly and invariably performed the national etiquette for each other.

“Dalong Zhengshi Commander-in-Chief Liu Chengfeng has met Your Excellency Wu Lining.”

 “Urinin, the imperial minister of Tsarist Russia, saw the chief military officer of Dalong Zhengshi.”

"polite."

Uri Ning stood up and went towards Liu Chengfeng to greet him: "As you should, please take your seats, distinguished envoys."

 “Thank you very much.”

Liu Chengfeng and his entourage sat down on the slightly awkward chairs in the hall under Wu Lining's reception.

Wu Lining looked at Liu Chengfeng and others who were sitting on the chairs and looked slightly uncomfortable. He smiled and clapped his hands. A group of young Tsarist Russian girls in sexy and exotic clothes placed misty hot soup in front of everyone.

.

“Please use it with caution.”

Wu Lining smiled lightly and picked up the hot soup in front of him and gestured to everyone: "It is snowing and freezing outside the royal city. All the noble envoys of the Great Dragon Kingdom have come all the way to drink a bowl of hot soup first.

Go and get cold.

 The wine and food prepared by me will be served later, please."

Liu Chengfeng heard the words translated by Yefus and nodded slightly to Urinen. He calmly picked up the hot soup in front of him and moved it to his mouth.

"Commander, wait a moment, the last general will drink first."

Liu Chengfeng looked down at his brother Song Yang's big hand on his wrist and shook his head casually.

“It doesn’t matter, it’s just a bowl of hot soup. Have you forgotten where my mother is from?”

Before Song Yang could say anything, Liu Chengfeng had already picked up the soup bowl with his other hand and brought it to his mouth.

Liu Chengfeng swallowed the soup silently, tasting the taste that he had never tasted before.

“What a delicious soup. All brothers, please give it a try, so as not to disappoint Lord Wu Lining’s wishes.”

Seeing Liu Chengfeng's heroic spirit, Song Yang and others stopped saying anything. They picked up the soup in front of them and gave it to Wu Lining, then took it directly to his mouth.

 “Okay, you noble envoys are cheerful people, and I admire you.”

 “Come, let’s serve food and drinks.”

It was still the same group of exotic Tsarist Russian girls as before, carrying wine and food in copper vessels and placing them in front of everyone.

Liu Chengfeng and the others looked at the fragrant bear paws and a series of dishes in front of them in surprise, and swallowed subconsciously.

It's not that they haven't eaten or seen good food, it's just that they didn't have this good food during the few months on their mission to Tsarist Russia.

“Dear envoys, please forgive me for not knowing the rules of your country. Let’s have a glass of wine to warm ourselves up, and then enjoy the delicious food.”

  "Then we're not welcome. Let's go ahead and do it out of respect."

Urinen and Gogolov looked at the way Liu Chengfeng and the others raised their glasses, imitated them and drank the wine in the silver cups in one gulp, imitating Liu Chengfeng and the others.

 “Call the general soldier, this wine from Tsarist Russia is a bit like what our northern Xinjiang cattle and horses drink! Good wine, strong enough!”

“It tastes weird, not as refreshing and mellow as our Dalong wine, but it’s very strong, so it’s really a good choice to warm up.”

 “The taste is average and the alcoholic strength is okay.”

   …”

Liu Chengfeng listened to the surrounding generals' comments about Tsarist Russia's drinks, looked at the surprised and confused eyes of Urinin and the two men, reached out and took off the wine bag from his waist and handed it to Jevs.

“Tell Lord Urinen and Count Gogolov that this is the drink of our Great Dragon Kingdom. If they don’t mind, they can taste it.

Let’s see how it’s different from the drinks you drink in Tsarist Russia.”

"Yes Yes Yes."

Jeves took the drink and muttered something quietly in front of the two Urinens.

Urinen and the other two first glanced at the wine bag in Jeves' hand, and then nodded curiously at Liu Chengfeng's warm smile.

Seeing this, Jeves picked up the two empty silver cups on the side, pulled out the cork on the wine bag and filled two glasses of wine.

"Duke Urinen, Count Gogolov, the taste of the wine in the Dragon Country is very different from that in our country. You need to put it under your nose to feel the aroma of the wine, and then taste it in your mouth.

, only then can you feel the mellow taste of Dalong wine.”

Urinin and his wife nodded in confusion, took the silver cup in front of them and brought it up to their noses. They took a deep sniff and suddenly felt a strange aroma that was not found in their own wine.

Although it feels a bit strange, it makes people want to smell it more.

The two of them moved the drinks towards their mouths. After the drinks entered their mouths, they groaned and instinctively frowned. They were thinking of spitting the drinks out, but what Jeves said just now came to mind.

Hold up the discomfort of drinking Dalong wine for the first time, the two began to taste the taste of the wine in their mouths.

After a while, the two people's brows gradually widened, and they looked at the drinks in the glasses with a look of surprise on their faces.

Wu Lining let out a breath of hot breath and looked at Liu Chengfeng and the others in amazement: "Good wine. Although I don't know what words to use to describe the taste of your country's wine, I have to admit that your wine is delicious."

The wine has a more wonderful taste than the wine we drink in Tsarist Russia.

 This is a feeling that cannot be described in words.”

Gogolov directly handed the wine glass to Jevs, but looked at Liu Chengfeng: "Your Majesty, can I have another drink?

Your drinks in the Great Dragon Kingdom are so fascinating!"

Liu Mingzhi raised his eyebrows and turned to look at Yang Huaiqing, the general on the side: "Brother Yang, go get the jars of 30-year-old bamboo leaf greens from our carriage and let the two adults taste them.

By the way, the oil lamps in their main hall are too dim, and there is a pungent smell of grease in the air. Bring a box of our candles as well."

Urinen understood the meaning of Liu Chengfeng's words from Jevs, and immediately waved to the servant on the side.

 “Saar, you go and lead the way for the noble envoy of the Great Dragon Kingdom.”

 “Yes, Your Majesty the Duke.”
