Chapter 306 The Charm of Wine
"Well, can I make a reservation?" Boss Jia asked them expectantly. Since there was not much stock now, making a reservation was also an option. As long as he could get the wine, he believed it was worth paying some price.
"Oh, how much would you like to order, Boss Jia?" Mu Chenyang smiled and took over the conversation, looking at Boss Jia and asking. There was a hint of shrewdness in his eyes, as if he was already calculating how to negotiate this deal with Boss Jia.
"Who are you?" Boss Jia looked at Mu Chenyang with confusion. He didn't know who this person who suddenly appeared and spoke was, and what role he played in this transaction.
"I'm in charge of external business. If Boss Jia wants to discuss cooperation, we can find a quieter place to discuss it in detail," Mu Chenyang said to him, still smiling. His smile was refreshing, but his eyes held an unquestionable firmness.
"Okay, then please follow me to the office in the back!" Jia Hongwen was delighted when he saw Nangong Jingming nod. He knew that this matter was possible. If he wanted to make this deal, he naturally needed to find a quiet place to discuss it properly. Having such an opportunity was a good thing for him.
"I'll go too," Qin Zhixuan said immediately, worried that Mu Chenyang would go alone, and then followed them closely towards the office in the back. Her eyes were filled with concern and worry, as if Mu Chenyang might encounter some danger.
"This girl, it's true she's too young to be kept." Qin Yunhai shook his head helplessly. Although he said this, he wasn't entirely reassured, so he followed them. His steps were heavy, and he secretly thought to himself, "I can't let my child suffer any injustice in this interstellar world."
"Captain Nangong, this must be your first time in Xinghai City!" Liu Shaojie looked at Nangong Jingming with a look of certainty in his eyes. He had roughly judged from the words and actions of Nangong Jingming and others that they were not familiar with this city.
"Yes!" Nangong Jingming admitted frankly. He knew that in this interstellar city, it was almost impossible to hide the fact that he was a newcomer. Instead of hiding it, it was better to admit it generously, which could also avoid some unnecessary trouble.
"Hello, my name is Liu Shaojie. Can we be friends?" Liu Shaojie looked at Nangong Jingming with clear eyes. He felt a unique temperament from Nangong Jingming and believed that such a person was a friend worth making, so he extended a hand of friendship to him.
"Hello! I'm happy to make friends with you." Nangong Jingming had already sized him up, and seeing him sincerely extend his hand, he naturally wouldn't refuse. He extended his hand and shook it tightly with Liu Shaojie. Their eyes met, as if they had reached some kind of tacit understanding at this moment.
"Let me introduce our captain to you. If you have any questions, you can ask us. We are very familiar with Xinghai City." Liu Shaojie was very happy to see Nangong Jingming so straightforward and said with a smile. He felt that helping these new friends get familiar with the city as quickly as possible was also a very meaningful thing.
"Ah, this Deputy Captain Liu actually took the initiative to make friends with others. This group of people must be quite powerful!" A passerby said in surprise when he saw the situation here. His eyes were full of curiosity and confusion, and he secretly guessed the identities of Nangong Jingming and others.
"Those people don't look ordinary," another passerby chimed in. Their eyes were fixed on Nangong Jingming and the others, as if they were trying to discover some secret from them.
"But they feel so strange, and their clothes seem different from ours. I wonder where they're from?" Another man said, looking Nangong Jingming and his group up and down, his eyes filled with curiosity and confusion. His eyes wandered over them, trying to find some clues from their clothing, expressions, or behavior to determine their origins, but in the end, he found nothing.
"Don't worry about it. Anyway, these people don't look like they're easy to mess with. Just avoid offending them in the future," someone said solemnly. His voice was deep and powerful, with an unquestionable tone, as if he were issuing an important order. Hearing his words, everyone immediately began to think. In this interstellar world, caution is the key to survival. If someone issued such a warning, there must be a reason for it.
The reason everyone was so convinced was because this man was known for his sharp vision. He seemed to have a special intuition, able to keenly discern the strengths and personalities of others. If he said someone was not to be messed with, it was definitely someone extraordinary, not someone to be easily ignored.
At this moment, he sensed an invisible aura from Nangong Jingming and the others. It was the kind of aura that only those who had experienced hardships and possessed strong confidence and strength could radiate. It was definitely not something that ordinary people could possess. Therefore, his first impression told him that these people were extremely powerful and should not be underestimated.
"Great, we've heard about your team's reputation, and we saw the results of your hunt today. It's truly impressive," Nangong Jingming said with a sincere smile. His eyes revealed a hint of admiration and appreciation. He had already researched the SEALs' reputation in space and was well aware of their impressive capabilities.
Liu Shaojie led them to the table where the Navy SEALs were sitting. "Captain, let me introduce you to a group of friends I just met. This is Nangong Jingming, their captain, and this is Ye Xuexin. You saw what just happened, right?" Liu Shaojie introduced them to the captain enthusiastically, his face filled with excitement, as if he had discovered some precious treasure.
"Hello, I'm the captain of the Navy SEALs, Ren Lin. Nice to meet you." Ren Lin stood up, his posture straight and straight, like a pine tree. His eyes were firm and deep, looking directly at Nangong Jingming, and he introduced himself seriously.
From his actions and words, one could clearly sense the demeanor and aura of a leader, which made people feel awe. Nangong Jingming secretly estimated in his heart that this man had an extraordinary aura and must be no ordinary person. He must have considerable strength and background.
"Hello, Captain Ren," Nangong Jingming said politely, bowing slightly. His demeanor was calm and composed, neither humble nor overbearing, demonstrating good manners and demeanor.
"Captain Nangong, are there so many women in your team?" A SEAL looked at the women behind Nangong Jingming with a puzzled look on his face and a hint of contempt in his tone. In his opinion, in an activity as dangerous and challenging as hunting, women are often at a disadvantage, and bringing them along could become a burden.
Nangong Jingming immediately sensed the inappropriateness in his words, his face darkening slightly, his eyes instantly becoming fierce. Like an enraged lion, he glared at the team member like an arrow, and said firmly, "They are our family." These few words contained endless strength and determination, and he would not tolerate any offense or disrespect towards his family.
"Uh, sorry, Captain Nangong, he meant no harm. He just thought it might be inconvenient for you to come here hunting!" Ren Lin keenly sensed Nangong Jingming's anger and hurried forward to explain. He knew his teammate's words might have caused misunderstandings, so to avoid unnecessary conflict, he quickly stepped in to mediate.
"Go over there. You can't talk. No one told you to speak." Liu Shaojie mercilessly pushed the team member away, then, with a smile on his face, invited Nangong Jingming and the others to sit down with him. His action was quick and decisive, partly to calm Nangong Jingming's anger, and partly to make clear to his team members that he would not tolerate such impolite behavior that could cause disputes.
"Captain Nangong, can you share some of your wine with me?" Liu Shaojie sat down, a smile on his face, his eyes filled with anticipation and longing as he looked at Nangong Jingming and asked. The taste of that small glass of wine still lingered on his tongue, leaving him with an endless aftertaste. He couldn't help but wonder if he could drink more, would it be even more wonderful? This curiosity continued to grow in his heart, prompting him to muster up the courage to make this request to Nangong Jingming.
"Xue Xin, please give our two new friends a drink!" Nangong Jingming walked to the other side of the table, sat down gracefully, and then instructed Ye Xue Xin. His tone was calm and natural, as if it was just a trivial matter.
"Okay, boss." Ye Xuexin quickly pulled out his glasses, his movements deft and skillful. He poured wine for Ren Lin and Liu Shaojie first, then filled each of his own group's glasses. The wine rippled in the glasses, exuding an alluring luster and aroma.
"Captain Ren, Captain Liu, this wine is unique to our hometown. We have many more varieties. Let me invite you to try it today," Nangong Jingming said, raising his glass with a hint of pride and enthusiasm. He hoped that through this glass of wine, they could enhance mutual understanding and friendship, while also showcasing the unique culture and products of his hometown.
"Captain Nangong is so generous! If you have any questions in the future, feel free to ask us." Liu Shaojie also raised his glass, a sincere smile on his face. He was moved by Nangong Jingming's generosity and generosity, and his good impression of him increased a little. In this interstellar world, it is undoubtedly a blessing to be able to make such a generous friend.
