Chapter 2587
Seeing that Charlie had arrived, Graham Quinton took the lead and stood up, saying respectfully, "Master wade, you're here! We were just talking about you!"
Charlie laughed, "I heard you, didn't you say you wanted to have a few more drinks with me later?"
Graham hurriedly laughed, "It's true that I want to have a few more drinks with you, but I definitely don't mean to fill you up."
Charlie smiled and then said to Lord Moore, "How is Lord Moore's health these days?"
Lord Moore nodded his head repeatedly and said respectfully, "Master wade, thanks to your blessings, the old man is in very good health."
Charlie nodded, and at that moment, Ito Yohiko, who was at the side, waved to Charlie wade and said with the same respect, "Greetings, Mr wade, we meet again!"
Charlie wade had already guessed that Ito Yohiko must be here, but naturally, he still had to pretend to be very surprised and said, "Oh, so it's Mr. Ito, I didn't expect you to be here too."
After saying that, Charlie wade looked at Emi Ito and Koichi Tanaka beside him and said with a smile, "Ms. Ito and Mr. Tanaka are also here."
Emi Ito hurriedly stood up, bowed ninety degrees and said, "Hello Mr. Wade!"
Tanaka Koichi had no lower limbs and could only put his hands together in place and said, "Hello Mr. Wade!"
Charlie nodded slightly in greeting, and Nanaiko Ito, who was chatting with Jasmine not far away, blushed shyly and said, "Charlie-kun, goodbye!"
Charlie looked at Ito Nana-chan and saw that she still had the same soft and beautiful appearance, and said with a smile, "Nana-chan, I heard from Jasmine long ago that you were coming to Aurous Hill to see the concert, but I didn't expect to come so early."
Ito Nana-chan said somewhat shyly, "Charlie-kun, I happen to be not so busy recently, so I wanted to take this opportunity to come to Aurous Hill to relax and take a break."
Charlie nodded and asked her with a smile, "Why didn't you tell me in advance before you came?"
Ito Nanaeko pursed her lips and said in a low voice, "I ...... I ...... I wanted to give Charlie-kun a little surprise, so I didn't say anything, so please don't be angry with Charlie-kun ......"
Charlie laughed, "Why not, but next time you can consider telling me in advance, and then I will be the one to prepare the reception banquet for you."
Ito Nanaeko hurriedly said, "Okay Charlie-kun, next time I will definitely tell you in advance!"
Charlie nodded slightly and Jasmine, who was at the side, said with a smile, "Master wade, do you think we should enter the table now?"
"Sure." Charlie smiled, "Sorry for making you guys wait for me for so long, the journey was a bit long and I happened to send my father-in-law on a trip."
Lord Moore stood up at this time and said with a smile, "Master wade, you're being unkind, we've only just started chatting a few times, come, please take your seat first!"
Charlie smiled and said, "Old man, you are the master, of course you have to be seated first."
Lord Moore still wanted to push back, but Charlie insisted, "Come, you sit in the main seat, I'll sit next to you."
Seeing this, Lord Moore did not refuse and said in a hurry, "Then I will do as Master wade commands!"
At this time, Aurora, who had just puffed her face with cold water, also came out of the bathroom and, seeing Charlie coming, immediately ran to him excitedly and said excitedly, "Master wade, you're here!"
Charlie wade looked at her and nodded and smiled, "Aurora is here too."
"Yes." Aurora said happily, "Nana-chan gave me an Akita dog and asked me to come and pick it up."
Saying that, she was so busy that she added, "Master wade, do you want to go and tease it?"
Graham Quinton, who was standing by, chided offhandedly, "Aurora! Can't you see that everyone is about to eat? Just fooling around, hurry up and sit down next to me."
Chapter 2588
Aurora bristled with aggression and said in a jarred voice, "I know dad ......"
Charlie laughed at this time, "Let the dog let the housekeeper help take care of it first, and then play with it after dinner."
Lord Moore hurriedly instructed the housekeeper to take the dog out first.
The crowd then took their seats one by one.
On Charlie's left was Lord Moore, and on his right was Ito Yohiko.
As for Emi Ito and Koichi Tanaka, they were originally reluctant to come to the table, but Charlie wade kept them there.
In Japanese society, the relationship between master and servant is very clear, and sometimes a title of senior can crush people to death, but in China it is relatively less rigid, and Charlie wade is not the kind of person who cares about such details, so he simply opened up for them to sit down together.
Naturally, Emi Ito and Koichi Tanaka were flattered.
Once everyone was seated, Lord Moore had the wine poured for everyone. This time, the wine was still the national wine Moutai, which was the most popular brand in high society and the only choice for hosting foreign guests and envoys at state banquets.
Moreover, almost all of the Moutai treasured by Lord Moore is a rare product that cannot be bought with money in the market, and any bottle taken out is at least twenty years old.
After the maid poured white wine for everyone, Ito Yohiko couldn't help but pick up a glass and sniff it under his nose, exclaiming, "It really is the national wine of China! The aroma alone is intoxicating enough."
Curious, Lord Moore asked, "Oh? Mr. Ito has studied Chinese liquor as well?"
Ito Yohiko nodded and said seriously, "I'm not going to lie to you, in Japan, the most popular among the general public is naturally beer and sake, the young people love whisky and red wine, and some of the older upper class, as well as members of old families, the most popular is actually Chinese white wine."
Saying this, he exclaimed, "After all, much of Japanese culture has its origins in China, and so does the wine culture."
"Older families in Japan would ask their children to learn about Chinese culture from an early age, so we learnt from an early age, through history books, that in ancient China there was also the saying 'the only wine under the sun is Dukang'."
"The Japanese Prime Minister, Kakuei Tanaka, came to visit China a few decades ago and made the same sentiment."
"We studied Tang poetry and Song lyrics back then, in order to find that unrestrained feeling of ancient Chinese poets, we also once went to find Chinese white wine to drink several glasses of it painfully, that kind of sound and drenched feeling is really nostalgic ......"
Lord Moore nodded and smiled, saying, "That's just right, take advantage of this opportunity today and make sure to have a few more drinks! If you like to drink, when you return to Japan, I will have someone prepare a special batch for you to bring back!"
Ito Yohiko said with an arch of his hand, "Then thank you, Mr. Moore! If you have time, you are welcome to visit Japan for a few days, I will be sure to entertain you throughout!"
Lord Moore laughed, "Good, I will definitely go over there when I have the chance!"
After saying that, he looked at Charlie and said respectfully, "Master wade, why don't you make an opening speech and let's all raise our glasses and clink."
Charlie laughed, "You are the head of the family, if I were to say the opening speech, wouldn't it be a racket?"
Lord Moore said firmly, "You are the great benefactor of the Moore family, you are here, this is your home turf, and everyone here has benefited from your care and kindness, so it is absolutely appropriate for you to say the opening speech!"
Charlie was silent for a moment, nodded and said, "Good!"
After saying that, he stood up, holding his glass of wine, and said seriously, "First of all, I would like to welcome Mr. Ito's family to Aurous Hill, I don't have a good feeling about most Japanese companies and entrepreneurs, but Mr. Ito still impresses me a lot."
"So, I also hope that Mr. Ito can cooperate more with the Moore family, with the Quinton family, and with Jiu Xuan Pharmaceutical in the future!"
"We all strive to be able to interchange, exchange and symbiosis resources, and find more opportunities and incubate more projects together."
