The next day, Ren Baqian strolled to the Honglu Bureau early in the morning. The empress's birthday celebration was today. After that, his mission would be considered complete. He really did not have much interest in the position of Honglu Deputy.
When he returned to Earth at night, he would bring back some good stuff. At that time, he would look for Du Changkong to exchange for martial arts. Who knows, he might be able to become an expert or something.
He was looking forward to the cultivation techniques of this world.
Now, he could only hope that he could learn the cultivation techniques of this world. After all, people from two different worlds might have some differences in their bodies. That would be terrible.
Qi Heng and Qi Sheng, who were guarding the door, were still respectful towards Ren Baqian. Even though it wasn't a secret that Ren Baqian was only hanging here temporarily, Ren Baqian had indeed done a good job in the Honglu Bureau. These days, there weren't many troubles at the Honglu Bureau. As a result, the people at the Honglu Bureau were rather respectful towards Ren Baqian.
Ren Baqian was rather pleased with the attitude of the people in the Honglu Bureau. However, the aboriginals were well aware of their own situation. In reality, the aboriginals were overbearing but not ruthless enough. Even though it was a deterrent to the people from other nations, they wouldn't be too heavy-handed since they were here to celebrate the empress's birthday. In addition, Qi Zhi's own strength was very high, so he could easily deal with the other party. He just had to beat them until they were convinced.
That was why he had broken the legs of four people last year, but he was still playing tricks on them.
However, Ren Baqian was different. He did not have the strength to truss a chicken and did not have any foundation in Dayao. If he could not suppress them, he was afraid that he would have to revolve around them every day. He would not be able to get any benefits from the empress either.
The ruthless methods he used and the even more unscrupulous behavior he displayed afterwards were the real reason why they tucked their tails between their legs.
It didn't mean that he was much better at handling things than the original Qi Zhi.
Ren Baqian returned to his room. Not long after, someone came over and handed Ren Baqian a token. This was the name list for tonight's banquet. The other people who were invited to attend the banquet had already received the token. Ren Baqian was the only one who had gone missing for a day and then went to participate in the Great Hunt. This token was only given to him today.
Ren Baqian fiddled with the token. He had already prepared the gift for the empress. The last time he came back, he had also brought it back. There shouldn't be any problem.
On Earth, it was not expensive, but here, it should be high-end and of a higher grade. It was not inferior to the precious items given by others.
Furthermore, there was an exceptional bootlicker attached to the gift. He reckoned that the empress would like it.
After sitting for a while, Ren Baqian recalled that no one had told him what to wear.
He got up and went to Gu Daxiong's room. He heard a deafening snoring at the door.
It was really comfortable being a hands-off shopkeeper. This period of time was the most troublesome in the past years, but this year, he had nothing to do with it.
"Sir Gu!" Ren Baqian knocked on the door and shouted. A moment later, a voice came from inside, "What's the matter? Come in. "
When Ren Baqian entered, Gu Daxiong was sitting on a chair with his arms crossed.
"Sir Gu, may I know what to wear to the banquet?" Ren Baqian cupped his fists and asked.
Gu Daxiong scratched his head. "Of course it's the gown." Soon after, he remembered that Ren Baqian didn't know much about these things, so he said, "Go to Jingyang Road and look for a Gu Ji Clothing Store. You can make formal attire there. You are now Secondary class, Rank 6, and the color is grass green."
"Thank you, Sir Gu, but can you get someone to bring me there?" Ren Baqian asked again. Fortunately, he had asked. Otherwise, he wouldn't have known that Dayao had gowns, let alone where to get one. He hoped that there would be ready-made clothes in the clothing store so that he wouldn't be held up.
"Look for Gu Shou and get him to get someone to bring you there." Gu Daxiong waved his hand and yawned.
A moment later, Ren Baqian was led by someone to the entrance of a shop on Jingyang Road.
"Deputy Ren, this is the place. Tell them your position and they will know," the person who led the way said to Ren Baqian and left in a hurry.
There weren't many people in the shop. Some ready-made clothes were hung on the rack.
After all, the others were already prepared. No one was like Ren Baqian, who participated in the exercise at night and came to make the formal attire in the afternoon.
There were two aboriginal ladies leaning on the counter. There was a burly man sitting beside them. When they saw Ren Baqian enter in his official attire, the two ladies immediately perked up.
"Sir, what do you want to buy?"
"Formal attire for the banquet. Can you make it?" Ren Baqian asked.
"I just need to make some alterations. It will be ready in four hours." One of the ladies said, "Sir, please follow me."
It was around nine in the morning. Four hours was equivalent to one in the afternoon. He could make it in time.
After Ren Baqian entered, there was a lady who was either from the Yun Nation, the Chen Nation, or Great Xia. She was standing at one side with a ruler in her hand.
Ren Baqian stretched out his arm and allowed her to measure his measurements. He was trying to guess which country this lady was from.
After all, the people from those three countries were similar. Only the people from the Chen Nation were slightly darker.
There was also a possibility that she was a remnant citizen of the Hao Nation. In fact, the aboriginals didn't look much different from them. They were just a little more boorish. The difference in body size was huge.
After explaining his position, Ren Baqian left and returned to the Honglu Bureau. He stayed there until the afternoon before collecting his formal attire and returning to the beast park.
Dayao's formal attire was very simple and didn't have many decorations. It was just a buttoned robe with the left side pressing down on the right side and extending all the way to the armpit. The buttoned and cuffs were all made of red cloth with floral patterns.
Other than the buttoned front, waist, and cuffs, this formal attire was entirely green. The lower part of the attire was a little lower than the knees and a pair of green pants were required.
Other things didn't matter to Ren Baqian, but the color of this formal attire gave him a headache. Even if it was dark green, it would be good. After wearing this formal attire, he immediately felt that he was as green as the prairie of Hohhot.
Ren Baqian carried out a wooden box that was half the height of a person. The box was made of wood and was wrapped in kraft paper. The surrounding area was wrapped with soft paper.
This was the birthday gift for the empress.
After checking the items, Ren Baqian went out and wandered around. He found Tie Dao and Teng Hulu. When they saw him, they praised him, "Sir Ren, you look really handsome in this formal attire."
"Stop flattering me. In a while, the two of you will change into clean clothes and help me move these things to the front gate of the palace," Ren Baqian said. He was already so green, how could he still call himself handsome?
"Yes, Sir." The two immediately nodded their heads. Then, they asked curiously, "Sir, I didn't see you preparing anything for Her Majesty. I thought you would go empty-handed. "
"Naturally, I have already prepared it." Ren Baqian waved his hand. "The two of you, go and change your clothes."
When it was almost evening, Ren Baqian brought Tie Dao and Teng Hulu to the front gate of the palace. There were already a few carriages parked at the side of the plaza.
In front of the palace gate, there were already a few rows of imperial bodyguards forming a human wall. There were two paths in the human wall. The officials of Dayao and the officials from the other three nations were separated when they entered.
