Chapter 129 Gather together

By this time, Chen Hong's room had already been moved in with his belongings and furniture.

"Come in, everyone, please come and visit my new home."

Chen Hong led everyone into room 3603.
"Today is my housewarming day, and I've brought some small gifts for everyone."

Chen Hong opened several cardboard boxes.

It has everything: cosmetics, daily necessities, bags, suits, comic books, fashion magazines, and even Transformers.

Clearly, Chen Hong came prepared with a specific purpose in mind.

"Come on, everyone, take whatever you want."

"Wow!"

"Chen Hong, you're so incredibly wealthy!"

Chen Meijia rushed over with a joyful expression.

"This...how is this so embarrassing?"

Hu Yifei looked embarrassed, but her hands moved very quickly.

"Hey, hey, hey, leave some for me!"

Lu Ziqiao reached out his hand and joined the looting frenzy.

The gifts were quickly divided up, and everyone wore satisfied smiles.

Although they were just small gifts, they immediately brought them closer together.

Chen Hong quickly became familiar with everyone.

Everyone was very enthusiastic in helping Chen Hong decorate the room.

The spacious room is furnished with various pieces of furniture and household items.

Many hands make light work, and in no time, they had decorated the empty room beautifully.

The process also brought everyone closer together.

"Wow, you live in such a big room all by yourself. Rich people have it so good."

Lu Ziqiao looked on with envy and admiration.

He was known as the White Dragon of the Waves, nicknamed "Lu Xiaobu" in the martial arts world, a dashing and romantic figure.

They could only earn money through scientific experiments, and even that was barely enough to pay rent.

The pressure only eased a bit after we caught Guan Gu Shenqi, that big fat sheep.

But Chen Hong had already bought a detached house.

The difference between people is greater than the difference between people and pigs.

"Haha, it's nothing. Everyone is welcome to visit when they have time."

Anyway, there are plenty of empty rooms here.

You can also hold parties here.

Chen Hong smiled slightly, displaying both humility and magnanimity.

"Then we won't stand on ceremony with you, you big spender," Hu Yifei teased.

"Don't mention it," Chen Hong waved his hand. "It's perfect, everyone's tired after finishing their work."

It's almost dinnertime now.

To thank everyone for helping me move, and to celebrate my housewarming today, I'm treating everyone to a meal at a fancy restaurant. How does that sound?

"Great!"

Chen Meijia jumped out immediately.

I haven't had any income lately, and I'm almost unable to pay the rent.

I just started working as Guan Gu Shenqi's assistant, and I haven't even been paid yet. My stomach is already empty.

And so, Chen Hong led a large group of people to the big restaurant and had a big meal.

then.

Everyone was shocked.

Chen Hong has an enormous appetite.

One person devoured a whole braised beef feast, a whole roasted lamb, and three roasted suckling pigs!

They also finished off eight whole tables of food at a banquet!

Eight tables in total!
Hu Yifei and the others were stunned, their mouths agape, their jaws practically dropping.

Lu Ziqiao lifted his chin with his hand and couldn't help but speak:
"No, man."

"You...are you really a big eater?"

Hu Yifei looked puzzled. "A person ate far more food than their own body weight."

Is this...scientific?

Hu Yifei wondered if she had obtained a fake master's degree.

"Could it be that Brother Chen's stomach is like the stomach of an anime character, a dimensional stomach?"

Lu Zhanbo was dumbfounded, completely unable to understand.

"Have I encountered some kind of extraordinary event from an adventure story?"

Lin Wanyu's eyes lit up instantly, sensing that things were getting interesting.

The world is indeed more wonderful than I saw when I was under my father's wing.

"What are you all standing there for?" Chen Hong casually pointed.

Pointing to the remaining seven or eight tables of food in the large private room, he said, "Everyone, please eat. Don't be shy with me."

"Oh...oh oh!"

Everyone snapped out of their daze and, ignoring Chen Hong's amazing performance, realized that the most important thing was to enjoy a big meal.

The atmosphere quickly became lively.

Everyone was tearing at the big meat leg with gusto, stuffing it with all sorts of delicious food, completely uninhibited.

"Come!"

"cheers!"

Everyone shouted in unison, and the transparent wine glasses clinked together, instantly bringing the atmosphere to a fever pitch.

Lu Ziqiao suggested playing rock-paper-scissors and drinking a penalty shot.

Later in the game, Hu Yifei got drunk and started acting crazy, insisting on dragging everyone into drinking heavily.

"Feifei, you can't drink anymore, or you'll collapse here."

Lin Wanyu, unable to hold her liquor, had a flushed face and hurriedly waved her sleeves.

"No more drinking. No more drinking."

"Hey, Wanyu, your alcohol tolerance is... not good."

Hu Yifei's steps were a little unsteady. She pointed at Lin Wanyu, then moved towards Lu Zhanbo.

"Zhanbo, take care of... take good care of Wanyu."

"Who else!"

Hu Yifei pointed around.

"No, no."

Zeng Xiaoxian waved his hands repeatedly and then collapsed onto the table, completely exhausted.

After pointing around, only Lü Ziqiao was barely holding on.

At this moment, Chen Hong stood up.

"Let me do it."

"What's the point of drinking beer?"

"If you're going to drink something, drink baijiu (Chinese liquor)."

"Oh, are you trying to challenge me?" Hu Yifei said, hands on her hips. "Look at my temper."

"Waiter, bring me white food!"

"Madam, how much do you want?" "Come on... give me a dozen." Hu Yifei replied with great enthusiasm.

Chen Hong smiled slightly, "No, give me twenty dozen!"

"I want the best, the strongest liquor!"

"Fine, fine, Chen Hong, you're really going to mess with me. I'll show you... how powerful Hu Yifei is."

Hu Yifei rolled up her sleeves and pointed her thumb at her head.

Soon, the waiter brought out twenty dozen bottles of baijiu (Chinese liquor).

Hu Yifei and Chen Hong blew on the bottle.

But soon, everyone was stunned.

Because Chen Hong can drink too much.

Hu Yifei, a heroine among women, couldn't handle it after drinking a few bottles.

Chen Hong drank the nineteen cups and the rest, and was perfectly fine.

In fact, let alone twenty dozen, Chen Hong could drink and digest an entire swimming pool's worth of liquor if he wanted to.

Now everyone was convinced of Chen Hong's talent and admitted that he was a freak.

Can't compare with him.

During this process, Chen Hong discovered that this world did not possess any extraordinary energy such as spiritual energy.

He can only nourish himself by eating and using the Six Treasures Immortal Thief to digest food into energy.

Whether it's meat, vegetables, or alcohol, everything can be perfectly digested and converted into the energy your body needs.

We enjoyed a delicious and satisfying meal.

Chen Hong finally released the pent-up frustration he had accumulated over the past twenty years.

They completely bid farewell to the hardships of childhood poverty and adulthood, including the privilege of wearing imperial robes.

Transform into a food-oriented consumer who enjoys life.

You can enjoy the high-tech, high-quality urban life without any worries.

Do whatever you want.

They enjoy all sorts of luxuries, far more so than the emperors of ancient times.

The emperor didn't even have the right to sleep with his concubines on pillows; when he was doing his business, a whole bunch of eunuchs and palace maids were watching him.

Once it's over, you'll be taken away and left to sleep.

Choosing who to sleep with isn't very free either.

When eating, there are hundreds of dishes to choose from. You can only pick a few plates, take a little of each, and not eat too much, let alone show any particular fondness for any dish.

This was to prevent being poisoned.

If anyone transgresses any rule, the ancestral rules will suppress them like a mountain.

Only the founding emperor, who held absolute power, could be so free to set his own rules without anyone daring to object.

There were no ancestral rules to restrain them.

Either he is the leader of a revitalized dynasty, with superb skills, the ability to endure, and the capacity to achieve his goals through various means.

As for those emperors who were of average ability, they didn't really have that much freedom.

They are far inferior to the wealthy people in the urban world.

You can enjoy it as much as you want.

Of course, this only applies to the enjoyment aspect.

In terms of power, they were naturally far inferior to the emperor.

No matter how powerful Shangjia is, he's nothing more than a fat pig waiting to be slaughtered.

They don't fleece you; they just want to skim off the profits slowly and steadily.

The exception is the combination of fist fighting and money.

But usually, money will come to you on its own.

Therefore, wealthy people can generally live very comfortably.

If no major changes occur, it's not a problem for generations to live comfortably.

They were called "powerful and influential figures".

Those who accumulated wealth through generations were called "gentry."

Having survived a major upheaval, they became "family figures of high standing".

Having survived four major upheavals, they are a "millennial family".

Ordinary people are like weeds, generation after generation; poverty rarely lasts beyond three generations.

Because after three generations, there are no descendants, and the family line ends.

As for Chen Hong, the great power comes from within himself.

Being comfortable forever is not a problem.

You can be comfortable as long as you live.

There's no need to consider the opinions of ordinary people anymore.

If you don't want to eat beef, then don't eat beef.

After the big meal, a few days passed after we returned home.

That day, Zeng Xiaoxian suddenly returned with a beaming face and shouted:
"Haha, good news, good news!"

"What's wrong? Why are you so happy?"

Hu Yifei asked curiously, and Lin Wanyu and the others also came out to look at Zeng Xiaoxian.

Even Chen Hong overheard the sound.

While localizing the shared knowledge and skills, they also tried to refine various treasures, and at the same time, they could hear the voices from the house next door.

"You don't know, I've hosted 600 episodes of my radio program."

Lisa told me that she would be inviting a female guest to co-host the show with me on the night of the 600th episode.

"Sigh, what a pity. The TV talk show I was supposed to go on the other day fell through because I was stuck in traffic on the overpass."

"I must perform well this time, maybe I can plead with Lisa again."

"Tch..." Hu Yifei scoffed, "I thought it was something serious."

"If you couldn't even seize the last opportunity in your life, you won't be able to handle this little thing."

"Hey, Hu Yifei, can't you give me some encouragement sometimes?" Zeng Xiaoxian said, looking annoyed.

"Feifei, it's rare for Teacher Zeng to have something good happen to him, so let's not dampen his spirits."

"That's right, that's right, look at Wanyu, how gentle and considerate she is."

Zeng Xiaoxian pointed at Lin Wanyu, then at Hu Yifei.

"Look at you again."

"Hmm?..." Hu Yifei's eyes flashed with murderous intent.

Zeng Xiaoxian immediately chickened out and sewed his mouth shut.

"OK, you're gentle and considerate too."

"Teacher Zeng, you're so spineless, I despise you." Lu Zhanbo snatched the cushion from Zeng Xiaoxian's hands.

Just then, the doorbell rang.

Zeng Xiaoxian went out to sign for a package.

It was a large flower basket.

There was a card inside. I opened it and took a look.

It was a congratulatory card for Zeng Xiaoxian's show reaching its 600th episode, and the signatory's name was clearly:

Lora.
Zeng Xiaoxian was struck dumb as if by lightning and collapsed to the ground.

“Lo...Lora!”
