Chapter 275: Chapter 275 - Special Item: Tree of Sound!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

There were many special props in the new version of Ranches Story. As for which one he would get, he would only know if he satisfied the last requirement of the Musical Ceremony Scroll.

Just as he regained his senses, Chen Li walked in. “Boss Qin, congratulations. The atmosphere of today’s year-end banquet is very high. No company in Youcheng County has organized a year-end banquet of this scale.”

Qin Lin greeted him with a smile. “Welcome, Deputy Chen. Let’s have a drink together later.”

Chen Li waved his hand. “Boss Qin, I’m just delivering a gift for the county. I’m going back to the county soon. I still have to work overtime tonight.”

Behind him, Zhong Lei also walked forward with two certificates wrapped in red cloth and handed them to Qin Lin.

Qin Lin took the certificate in confusion. It was actually a certificate of excellence from Youcheng County. One was for Qinglin Food Company, and the other was for Qinglin Villa.

This was clearly a company that the county had awarded to Youcheng County for its contributions. Under normal circumstances, it would not deliver itself to their door at night.

However, flowers and sedan chairs carried people up. Sometimes, special situations require special treatment.

Today, Qinglin Villa’s year-end banquet was lively, so they sent it over.

After sending the certificate, Chen Li did not stay any longer. In today’s society, even if he was upright, he was afraid of making groundless accusations.

It might really be difficult for him to refuse a drink. Tomorrow, it might be spread online. Then, there would be news of him eating fish and meat at someone else’s company’s banquet. There might be private problems.

Sometimes, justice could not compare to a twisted mouth.

Some people said that the socio-economic development had been rapid over the past 20 years, but moral values were slowly regressing.

Although this statement was alarmist, some things indeed made it seem very helpless.

As soon as Chen Li left, Deng Guang led three people in.

He knew one of them. It was Cheng He, the agent for Qinglin Ketchup.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“President Qin, congratulations.” Cheng He shook Qin Lin’s hand warmly as soon as he entered.

Deng Guang also introduced the other two people. “President Qin, these two are the representatives of Qing City and Jin City, Zhou Dazhou and Jin Cui.”

After the two batches of Qinglin Ketchup arrived, the production increased greatly. Other than Cheng He, Deng Guang chose two regional agents from other cities to apply for representation. They were invited to the year-end banquet today, just like Cheng He.

Now that the market for Qinglin Ketchup was good, many people wanted to represent it.

However, Zhou Dazhou and Jin Cui had not seen him this year. Firstly, Deng Guang, the general manager of the food company, had already contacted them. Secondly, Qin Lin did not have the time to specially meet the two of them.

Zhou Dazhou and Jin Cui also went forward to shake hands with Qin Lin enthusiastically.

“President Qin, I’ve heard a lot about you.”

“I’ve wanted to see President Qin for a long time. I’ve finally seen you today.”

Qinglin Ketchup was very easy to sell and was sold in large quantities. It was a good deal for the two of them. They were also not satisfied with being an agent of a city and did not want to leave a bad impression on President Qin.

Outside.

The food had begun to be served in the hall. All the employees were already seated and were starting to eat noisily.

There were also banners hanging around. “Qinglin Villa, Qinglin Food Company’s Year-End Banquet.” It was obvious that this was the year-end banquet of Qinglin Villa.

The function of the banner was to be brief and clear. It was like a banner for a gathering at a hospital. “The operating theater is filled with money.”

It was obvious at a glance. It could even be used as a textbook.

The people from Youcheng County TV Station had already set up the recording machine in the back.

At the table at the front, Zhao Moqing was also sitting with the finance and accounting department. The finance department’s Xiao Xin was facing the stage with a phone.

The phone was naturally live-streaming. Since the official account of the villa had sent a video saying that the year-end banquet was going to live-stream and that he had to deliver medicinal wine and incense, he naturally could not go back on his word.

Xiao Xin looked at the number of people in the live-stream on her phone and was a little nervous because there were already more than 100,000 people online.

Since the highly popular Qinglin Medicine Wine for treating hemorrhoids and the sandalwood fragrance for sleeping were very attractive, the officials had given the live broadcast more traffic.

Although she did not need to show her face and only needed to take care of the phone and send a fortune bag, she had never seen such a big scene as a small accountant.

The number of live-streams of those A-list PK streamers and cargo streamers did not reach more than 100,000 during this period.

At this moment, Qinglin Villa’s live-stream was already lively. Dense comments floated past:

“I’m not here for the medicinal wine for hemorrhoids.”

“I’m not suffering from insomnia. I’m just here to take a look.”

“Don’t tell me someone is after the medicinal wine for hemorrhoids?”

“Haha, it’s tiring work every day. Don’t tell me there are still people who can’t sleep?”

“I have hemorrhoids and insomnia. Please leave quickly, you don’t need it. Don’t snatch it!”

“…”

Clearly, the audience was really here for the medicinal wine and incense. The bullet screen content was also related to this.

When Qin Lin came out from backstage and returned to sit beside Zhao Moqing, a tall and elegant host walked onto the stage.

This was a member of the county’s literary team. She was very beautiful. After she went on stage, she began to make an opening speech in a very pleasant voice.

As soon as the host went on stage, the comments in the villa’s live-stream changed slightly.

“This host has a good figure!”

“Wow. Her face is very elegant. I like it.”

“I beg the host to keep appearing from now on.”

“Although Yaoyao is not bad, I don’t mind if there are other girls in the villa video.”

“…”

Xiao Xin looked at the sudden change in the comments and sighed that this was a group of perverts. Then, she did not forget her duty. Before the tail banquet began, she had to give out two 30ml medicinal wine and four six grams of sandalwood incense.

She operated it and silently handed out a lucky bag. Then she continued to look at the stage. The first performer was on stage.

The lucky bag also began to count down to receive it. However, a moment later, the entire live-stream exploded.

“F*ck, I suddenly realized that there was a lucky bag in the upper left corner. I thought I was mistaken.”

“That’s unprofessional. Shouldn’t the process be announced first? What about those who didn’t pay attention to it?”

“It’s indeed unprofessional. I almost left without paying attention. Fortunately, I took a look at the phone screen.”

“…”

When Xiao Xin saw the comments criticizing her, she felt that these people were fools.

She had always been a financial person, okay? She was definitely not a professional.

Soon, the first program of the year-end banquet began. As if afraid that the employees would be the first to go up and perform nervously, the first performer was a girl from the county’s literary troupe. The program was a song, and it was a very festive song.

When the song ended, the main event began. All the employees saw a lucky draw interface appear on the big screen.

The beautiful hostess went on stage again and said in a sweet voice, “A good song ends. Next is a lucky draw that everyone is looking forward to.”

“Everyone knows that the company has prepared many prizes for tonight’s year-end banquet. However, other than that, the company has also invited some guests. They have also brought everyone a generous red packet as a gift.”

“Now, let’s welcome Qinglin Ketchup’s acting businessman, President Zhou Dazhou. He brought five 2,000 yuan red packets for everyone.”

Five 2,000 yuan red packets meant that five employees could win.

This raised the atmosphere among the employees. They applauded crazily and looked forward to being one of the five employees.

In this small county, 2,000 yuan was really a lot. Many people only earned a little more than 2,000 yuan a month.

Red packets brought by such customers usually came from a young age. Zhou Dazhou’s five 2,000 yuan red packets were more registered than those of Lin Feng’s suppliers. Normally, they would be placed at the back.

However, Zhou Dazhou had something urgent to attend to and needed to leave in a hurry. Naturally, he had to adjust the arrangements.

Zhou Dazhou walked onto the stage, and the beautiful female host handed the microphone in her hand to him.

After Zhou Dazhou took the microphone, he said with a smile, “First of all, I’m very honored to be able to attend the year-end banquet of Qinglin Company. As the agent of Qinglin Ketchup, I’m very grateful for everyone’s efforts. It’s precisely because of your production efforts that I can have bottles of delicious ketchup to sell to customers…”

After Zhou Dazhou spoke, the female host also walked forward and handed a remote control to Zhou Dazhou. “President Zhou, this is the lucky draw remote control. The name of every employee here has been recorded in the prize pool. As long as you press this remote control, the employees’ names will randomly jump on the big screen. If you press the remote control again, it will stop. Then, you can personally draw these five lucky employees.”

Zhou Dazhou did not hesitate and pressed the remote control. In an instant, names and corresponding photos appeared on the screen.

The name photo flashed so quickly that it was difficult for the human eye to see it. Even so, many employees still stared at it with wide eyes.

When Zhou Dazhou pressed the pause button again, the names and photos of five employees appeared on the screen.

“I won. Haha, I won.”

“It’s my name!”

A series of surprised voices sounded.

An employee did not seem to pay attention to the prize and thought that he would not win. When he won, he still lowered his head and ate the fish. The person beside him reminded him several times before standing up in shock.

Soon.

These five lucky employees were invited onto the stage by the host. Zhou Dazhou personally sent the red packets he had sent to the five of them. It was very ceremonial.

Beside him, a photographer from the villa was taking photos.

When the videographer from Youcheng County TV Station saw this, he sighed with his colleague beside him. “No company in Youcheng County has organized such a grand year-end banquet.”

The person beside him also nodded.

The five winning employees on the stage could not wait to hold on to the thick red packets that Zhou Dazhou had given them. They could still hold it in on the stage, but they could not hold it in anymore when they got off the stage. They opened the red packets immediately and took out the cash inside, making their colleagues envious.

Then the beautiful hostess announced the start of a second program. This time it was also singing, but it was a duet between a young man and woman.

Seeing that there were two singing programs at the beginning, Qin Lin was very satisfied. Gao Yaoyao and the others had followed his instructions very strictly.

After that, programs followed one after another. Almost every program would have a lucky draw between them, and every lucky draw was definitely when the employees were the most enthusiastic and the atmosphere was intense.

Until the 10th performance.

Chen Dabei went to play the erhu. A security guard beside him cooperated and sang “Only by working hard can you win.”

This combination made people smile bitterly. It was mainly because Chen Dabei’s erhu could not keep up with the security guard’s tune.

However, this was not a professional stage. It was just a company’s party. Seeing two familiar people make a fool of themselves caused a wave of happy laughter.

When the security guard heard the laughter, he could only look vexed. He knew that this would happen. He did not want to sign up, but Supervisor Chen insisted on dragging him onto the stage to embarrass himself.

Chen Dabei did not care at all. It was as if he was doing it for fun. After the performance, he even bowed to all the employees.

When Chen Dabei and the security guard left the stage, Qin Lin revealed a happy expression. Another notification appeared in his mind:

[4/4 requirements for using the Musical Ceremony Scroll are met. Do you choose to use it?]

Qin Lin decisively controlled his game character to use it.

In the screen in his mind, the patterns on the Musical Ceremony Scroll also lit up with a special light. A moment later, they disappeared, but there was something else in the game character’s backpack.
