Chapter 712 The crowd is competing for beauty!

I beg you for genuine subscription support, and Xiaochuan kneels down to thank you.

~~~~~~

Open for business.

In Chinese tradition, it is a very important event.

Whether it can make a good start and whether it can have a good omen, in many people's minds, is directly related to the subsequent progress, and even whether it can be successful in the future.

People compete for a breath, Buddha competes for a stick of incense!

Li Yuanqing also attached great importance to this matter.

The opening ceremony of the Pan-Pacific Trading Company not only needs to demonstrate Li Yuanqing's power and shock the Chinese community, but also needs to shock those arrogant white-haired monkeys.

However, after returning to the dock base and lying on the comfortable big bed, Li Yuanqing felt a little uneasy.

But this is not because of the opening...

Many matters related to the opening have been assigned to various officers, and are jointly commanded by Guan Canghai and Xu Heizi. With the abilities of the two of them, there will basically be no major problems.

The reason why Li Yuanqing couldn't sleep was...

Gently sniffing a slightly yellowed ginkgo leaf in his hand, Li Yuanqing felt a little mixed in his heart.

He clearly remembered that not long ago, Meng Qingzhu was holding this ginkgo leaf in her little hands as white and tender as onions, meditating beside the ancient well under the moonlight...

The key is that she seems a little unhappy...

"Fuck! Damn it!"

Li Yuanqing suddenly spat hard and crushed the ginkgo leaf into pieces with his big hands.

But for a moment, he carefully arranged the ginkgo leaves and placed them under the pillow, and then lay down on the pillow...

…………

Early the next morning, Niu Gensheng carefully woke up Li Yuanqing outside the door.

Today’s opening ceremony is very grand!

Not only will Li Yuanqing be present in person, but all of Li Yuanqing's wives and concubines will also be attending in their best attire!

Of course, there are also many longevity campers.

Originally, Li Yuanqing wanted to hold a fleet parade. However, this is Brunei after all, and Li Yuanqing didn't want to show off his sea power too much, so he canceled it.

However, after annihilating Jack the Executioner, Li Yuanqing also received a huge benefit, that is, the seven or eight Spanish warships captured on Coconut Leaf Island could be blatantly 'whitewashed'.

These are all trophies!

Moreover, the Changsheng Battalion did not disclose accurate information on the specific number of captured ships. The main Spanish warships all have the same specifications. Who dares to take these trivial matters seriously with Li Yuanqing at this time?

At this time, it was only six o'clock.

Li Yuanqing would first go to his boat at the pier to pick up his wives and concubines in costumes. Then, they would have breakfast together at the base and go straight to the headquarters of Pan Pacific Trading Company. By then, the entire opening ceremony would be held.

It will start at ten o'clock.

With Niu Gensheng serving him, arranging his first-grade red official robe and trimming his beard meticulously, Li Yuanqing rode a carriage and led a convoy of nearly twenty carriages to the dock to greet his wives and concubines.

Coming from later generations, Li Yuanqing actually hates growing a beard. After all, trimming this thing is very troublesome, much more troublesome than cutting hair. Even though Nian'er, Xiaolian, Xiaohe and the others have been helping to take care of it, Li Yuanqing

Still a little uncomfortable.

However, after all the calculations, Li Yuanqing has just turned twenty-six this year, and his face is young and long. In order to maintain enough maturity and dignity, he can only grow a beard.

Otherwise, it will be like the old saying in China, 'If you have a hairless mouth, you will not be able to do things well!'

On the boat side, Zhang Baozhu and the others also got up early in the morning. Even before dawn, they started dressing up!

Even on Changsheng Island, except for particularly important celebrations, it was rare for them to have the opportunity to gather around Li Yuanqing and face the people and the public.

Therefore, this time, they cherish this opportunity very much and want to show their best side and not "embarrass" Li Yuanqing.

A few days ago, Li Yuanqing also gave his wives and concubines a sufficient budget of two thousand taels of silver each to prepare their costumes today.

Zhang Baozhu, Ren Ying'er, Wan'er, Cai Zi and others are slightly higher, all around 5,000 taels.

Caizi didn't want to participate in this celebration ceremony for a while. After all, compared with Zhang Baozhu, Ren Ying'er, and Wan'er, she was already over thirty and was indeed at a disadvantage. However, Li Yuanqing insisted on letting her participate, and even

At one time, her quota was increased to 10,000 taels.

In this regard, Li Yuanqing had only one sentence. He would never forget the night on Guanglu Island when the two of them slept in the open beside a fire in the cold wind.

Caizi also understood Li Yuanqing's intentions and immediately agreed to the matter with tears in her eyes.

At this time, at the pier, following the announcement from the soldiers, Li Yuanqing's lovely wives and concubines, who had already tidied up, began to walk down the hanging ladder one by one.

The first person to bear the brunt was naturally the fourth wife, Zhang Baozhu.

Zhang Baozhu chose an emerald green traditional Ming Dynasty dress. Although she did not wear a phoenix crown on her head, the aura of the current Queen of the Ming Dynasty was clearly displayed, as if a fairy saw her.

, also give way.

The several maids around her are also dressed in costumes, mainly in light green tones, which complement Zhang Baozhu. They are like a green spring breeze, which can't help but attract everyone's attention!

Although the soldiers around him were familiar with Zhang Baozhu for a long time, this was the first time they saw Zhang Baozhu dressed up like this. They couldn't help but be a little stunned, and they didn't react for a long time.

Even Li Yuanqing couldn't take his eyes away, staring straight at Zhang Baozhu's pretty face, full of unspeakable doting.

It was Niu Gensheng who reacted first, knelt down on one knee and said respectfully: "I have met the Fourth Madam!"

Only then did the soldiers around him react and fell to their knees, "I've seen the fourth lady!"

"Haha. No need!"

Zhang Baozhu smiled faintly, but it seemed as if hundreds of flowers were about to bloom.

Li Yuanqing also reacted, hurriedly rushed up to meet Zhang Baozhu, grabbed Zhang Baozhu's little hand, and whispered: "Baozhu, your posture, even me is a little stunned."

Zhang Baozhu was also in a very good mood, "You look silly. Hurry up and send me to the car. There are many sisters waiting behind you."

"Huh? Come on!" Li Yuanqing finally realized what he was doing. He helped Zhang Baozhu into the carriage with a silly smile, and came back to greet Ren Ying'er and Wan'er.

According to the regulations of Li Yuanqing's concubine, Zhang Yuniang was the official wife with imperial decree, and Qu Minqiu was also the ordinary wife with imperial decree. However, Yang Jiao's mother, including Zhang Baozhu, could also be regarded as ordinary wives, but they were not recognized by the court.

, but because of their status, they have a very high status in the regulations of Changsheng camp, and they are the equal wives of Li Yuanqing, second only to Zhang Yunniang and Qu Minqiu.

Although Ren Ying'er can be considered an equal wife, she is slightly worse, and the same is true for Wan'er and Caizi.

However, they are basically below a few people and above ten thousand people.

Ren Ying'er and Wan'er are both naturally beautiful, and they are in the best years of a woman's life, and their brilliance is even more radiant.

Neither of them chose the traditional long skirts of the Ming Dynasty, but chose the white long skirts of ladies with a bit of Western style, but not completely Western style. It seemed to incorporate a little bit of Ming Dynasty elements, a bit like the white ones that were improved in later generations.

The wedding dress is really eye-catching.

Li Yuanqing was also a little speechless. Women, when it comes to loving beauty, they are so self-taught!

He carefully welcomed his two lovely wives and concubines into the car, and then Caiko arrived.

Caiko did not choose the Ming Dynasty's long skirt, but the traditional kimono of the island country. What reassured Li Yuanqing was that after all, she did not choose the 'geisha' makeup that Li Yuanqing couldn't stand, but wore light makeup and looked beautiful.

Liu Qiao and Shu Murong are also extremely stunning.

Liu Qiao wore a traditional Ming Dynasty blue dress with a waist and wide skirt, which highlighted her increasingly delicate and charming figure.

Shu Murong, on the other hand, is the Jurchen's "hunting group", rough and wild, especially the small section of snow-white thigh exposed above the long boots, which makes people nosebleed.

Xiaohe and all the maids were also present in their best clothes.

Fortunately, the pier here was under martial law at this time, otherwise, the melon-eating crowd watching the excitement would probably be overcrowded!

After finally getting all the wives and concubines into the carriage, Li Yuanqing was already sweating. This was simply more tiring than fighting.

However, seeing all the girls so happy, Li Yuanqing felt very happy.

Li Yuanqing couldn't help but think of what a well-known boss said in later generations, 'Your success needs to be shared with others. And the most suitable carrier is your family!'

This is why every time when big-name American basketball stars, including European football stars, receive any honors, they always say in interviews: "Next, I will spend more time with my family."

After returning to the stronghold and having a simple breakfast, a group of people and more than 20 carriages, escorted by one hundred cavalry soldiers and two hundred infantry soldiers, marched straight to the headquarters of the Pan Pacific Trading Company!

At this time, it was just a little after eight o'clock, but the station of Pan Pacific Trading Company was already crowded with people. Even though Li Yuanqing had planned a huge open space in advance to accommodate people and park carriages, but at a glance, he could not find any space at all.

.

Even the Sultan of Brunei came here early in the morning, but there was no place to stay.

However, seeing Li Yuanqing's handsome flag approaching, the excited crowd immediately and spontaneously moved out of the way, allowing the group to pass smoothly.

When we arrived at the huge yard, the space suddenly became much more spacious.

The huge stage has already been tidied up, and thousands of tables have been placed around it. Everywhere is bright red, making it very festive!

After the opening ceremony is completed, it’s time for the flowing banquet that lasts until the evening!

The only pity is that at this time, there was no such luxurious audio equipment and live broadcast equipment as in later generations. Otherwise, this would have been the most lively and prosperous time in the entire Chinese world!

At this time, many people had gathered in the simple hall. When they saw Li Yuanqing coming, Chen Yougen, who was responsible for coordinating the order, rushed over immediately and briefly reported to Li Yuanqing the preparations for the entire ceremony.

Li Yuanqing nodded, smiled and whispered a few words to Chen Yougen.

Chen Yougen was stunned for a moment, but he reacted in a moment, clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Everyone, everyone! Be quiet for a moment! Today, Li Shuai's wives are also here! According to Western sayings, ladies are given priority, let's welcome Li Shuai together.

Enter ladies!"
