Reborn as a small European country

Chapter 140 The Palace Banquet
The Martial Arts Daily has an extraordinary influence in the Nord Principality, especially Nord Royal TV. At this time, some popular TV series are adapted from the novels here.

Of course, these dramas are mainly aimed at Chinese people. As for exporting to China, due to different policies, they need to be strictly reviewed before they can be broadcast in China, and a large part of the classic martial arts dramas will be lost.

Mr. Zhang saw some martial arts dramas outside the blocked door in Nord. He was very interested and at the same time seriously thought about China's review system. The country's economy has just recovered, so it is not suitable for any unexpected things to happen. Stability is more important than everything else. Therefore, he is not prepared to speak in the review.

After watching for a whole day, Vice-Master Zhang is generally satisfied. Of course, he is also satisfied with the specific economic and technological differences between the East and the West. Nord is already considered a quasi-powerful country at this time, but China’s economy and technology are now Even a quasi-powerful country is slightly behind. While a little bit disappointed, Vice-Master Zhang made up his mind to catch up as soon as possible.

"There is a dinner arranged by His Majesty Joseph tonight, Mr. Zhang..."

"His Majesty Joseph has always been a good friend of our Huaxia, so I naturally look forward to it."

The communication at the top may not be what the bottom wants. Some officials in the visiting group reject the imperial power and the royal family because of their background and education, so they secretly decide the snake.

"Are you sure you want to do this? This is a violation of discipline!"

Young and middle-aged people in their 30s are a little hesitant, not because they are timid, but because they feel that the approach is wrong. It is good to have their own ideas, but they cannot put these ideas above the overall situation of the country, and Novartis has always maintained a deep friendship, doing so...

"They are a group of moths, and it is necessary for us Huaxia to help them get rid of these moths. This is our bounden duty under the friendship of Novartis!"

The dignified and iron-boned appearance really has the taste of a hero and fearless, but his words are based on his own ideas without any basis or investigation.

As the best friend, the other young man knew that some things could not be stopped, so he made up his mind to tell his boss secretly - a leader of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

"There's something I forgot to say."

Just when another young man was about to leave, his friend suddenly spoke, which made him turn around, and then lay on the ground with a pain in his neck.

"Sorry, I know what you're thinking."

……

The Huaxia delegation dressed up a little and came to the Nord Palace. Unlike the government's reception car, the royal family's reception car only has the word "prestige", Rolls-Royce, Audi Supreme Edition saloon car, and Bentley.

Before arriving at the palace, dozens of male and female servants stood neatly at the entrance of the palace, headed by Joseph and Abner, waiting at the entrance. Such a situation made the young man who was about to do something even more determined.

"Vice Master Zhang, Nord welcomes you."

This was Joseph's first sentence, but it was this sentence that made some members of the Huaxia delegation frown, because the words were full of the Duke of Nord's control over Nord.

"Hello, His Majesty the Grand Duke."

Greeting with a smile, this is not the first meeting between Joseph and Vice-Master Zhang, so there is not much strangeness between the two parties, but it is not the case for other people.

"This is Abner, the palace steward!"

Abner saluted according to the traditional French nobleman's etiquette, and Vice-Master Zhang also returned the salute with great interest, which made Abner instantly feel good about Vice-Master Zhang.

"Vice-master Zhang, please."

There is only Joseph in the Ragnar royal family, so there are no other members of the royal family to introduce. Joseph and Vice-Master Zhang lead the next group of people to the palace.

"The last time Vice-Master Zhang came was two years ago!"

"Yes, at that time I was still the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, but the new palace was still under construction at that time, so I didn't have the chance to see it."

Abner was also in the old palace at that time, so he didn't have the chance to meet Vice-Master Zhang. If not, he would have been very fond of this Vice-Master Zhang who was from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs early in the morning.

The resplendent corridors, oil paintings of various shapes, and exquisite reliefs, although there is not much heritage here, everything here is not inferior to the Palace of Versailles in France, and of course the area may be worse.

The group did not walk too fast, and Abner kept helping to introduce the origins of oil paintings and reliefs and who made the masters on the way.

"This painting of the Crucifixion of Jesus was presented by the Pope of the Vatican. Prime Minister James has always liked this painting, but I think this location is the most suitable for this painting, so I rejected his request."

There were a few jokes in the conversation, and James was the one Joseph said the most. Fortunately, Prime Minister James was not here, otherwise he could only smile wryly.

"I think this Archduke Joseph is very disrespectful to Prime Minister James."

"The Ragnar family is the Principality of Nord, and the Principality of Nord is the Ragnar family. The prime minister comes from the palace steward. He has the right to tease his prime minister like this."

Undoubtedly, apart from some high-level officials, the staff below did not have a good impression of Joseph, mainly due to the influence of some pre-determined factors, which made them disgusted with such an old system.

When they came to the restaurant, everyone was seated. Dozens of hundreds of dishes were served one after another, including many Chinese dishes. After the meal, Mr. Zhang tasted it for a while and couldn't help but frown and think.

It's not that he finds it unpalatable, but that these dishes are very familiar and unusually familiar. When he glanced at the deputy leader of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, seeing his puzzled expression, Mr. Zhang suddenly realized.

"Zhu Yunsheng is here?"

The somewhat reckless question made Vice-Master Zhang apologize immediately, and Joseph waved his hand indifferently: "That's right, these dishes were made by Zhu Yunsheng, who is now the head chef of the palace kitchen."

"Haha, His Majesty is such a blessing. Zhu Yunsheng was one of the best chefs in our Ministry of Foreign Affairs back then. Even I often tasted his food."

"It's really good food, but he also represents our Novartis friendship."

This sentence is also true. At the beginning of Nord's development, Zhu Yunsheng contacted the two countries on behalf of him. Now that he has become famous, Zhu Yunsheng can stay in the Principality of Nord. To be honest, Joseph is very happy.

"Is he a Nord citizen now?"

"Immigrated two years ago, Mr. Zhang, please don't say that I poach your corner."

"It's true that I'm not satisfied, but I don't care about this sumptuous dinner."

Just when Joseph was having a good conversation with Vice-Master Zhang, a youth member of the Huaxia delegation suddenly stood up, and this situation instantly attracted the attention of all the guests.

not good!

This was the first thought of the leader of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. He knew the characters and origins of the team, so he had been keeping a close eye on the restless elements in the team. Now that he saw the young man stand up, he knew that he hadn't considered well at the beginning. You shouldn't bring these people here just because of some necessary work.
