Chapter 441: Tea House Gathering and Orles's Hospitality
At noon, the four singers had lunch together in the round pavilion tea house not far from the meeting hall. Orles had booked this place in advance. There were several big trees next to the tea house, which was very shady. The surrounding area was flat grass, and the bright sunshine sprinkled on the grass leaves, which was particularly green.
Although it was called a tea house, its style was actually closer to the Western pastoral style. The overall appearance was like a smaller version of a windmill. One side was half open, with a wooden circular guardrail, and there was a dining table inside. When dining, you could directly enjoy the scenery outside and enjoy the pleasant breeze. On the other side was the main body of the restaurant, which was decorated with various handicrafts, some left by previous guests, and some handmade by the store itself. There were also various fresh fruits on the diagonal wooden racks on the side, and guests could choose and enjoy them at will.
After ordering the food, several people sat at the table next to the guardrail to chat. Considering that Shui Yanqing and Orles were not very harmonious, Heshia and Blanche were separated, with Heshia and Orles sitting in one row and Shui Yanqing and Blanche in another row.
"The scenery here is very nice, and no one disturbs me. I came to the Golden Flame Flower Academy before, and I liked it very much." Orles said her foresight. She had actually come to the Golden Flame Flower Academy many times, but she didn't formally enroll because she was not old enough.
Blanche nodded in envy as usual, while Shui Yanqing looked at the environment in the tea room indifferently. There was an owl wall clock and a classical gilded celadon tea set on the table. When the four people sat down, a waiter dressed as a waiter served them black tea.
On the other side, Orles was very excited to introduce the dress she was wearing today to Heshia, saying that it was carefully prepared by a famous designer. The floral decorations and materials on it all took into account the unique style and style of the elf royal family.
If it was said to other people, there would probably be only half-understanding compliments. Although this is not bad, it is not as exciting and happy as the comments of knowledgeable people.
Speaking of other luxury goods, Heshia really didn't know much. Even though Dolores had popularized them to her over the years, she didn't have much time to learn them. But when it came to the classical style of elves, especially things related to ice elves, she had seen too many of them in her teacher's ancient memory, especially the elf princesses of the First Age, who all had to go to the battlefield, and their clothes and armor were both gorgeous and practical.
When she nodded in approval, Heshia could also make some suggestions based on what she saw and experienced, which made Orles feel like she had found a confidant. She talked more and more, and her mood was visibly happy.
In such a happy and excited mood, Shui Yanqing and Blanche on the side didn't know how to interrupt the two people's conversation. They just looked at Heshia opposite and occasionally smiled at the two with apology. After all, it was not good to ignore new friends like this.
Shui Yanqing naturally didn't care. She gently combed her hair with one hand, looked at the decorations around her and the scenery outside, and occasionally said a few words to Blanche to relieve the tension of the new singer.
After waiting for a while, the lunch ordered by the four was ready and served by the waiter.
First, there is the windmill chiffon cake placed in the middle of the table. This is a must-have dessert in the teahouse. If you don't want to eat it, you can take it home after the meal. There is an exquisite simulated windmill on the small cake, and its blades are still slowly rotating in the breeze, which is very artistic. The overall material is edible.
Next is the different lunch for the four people. Orles's staple food is 6 pieces of cut "Crystal Blueberry Pie", with 4 pieces of "Crab Meat Devil Eggs" cut in half next to it, a small dish of "Lemon Mousse" in the upper right corner, and 12 "Fresh Grapes" as an appetizer in the lower right corner, half of which are green grapes and half are red grapes.
The staple food in front of Shui Yanqing is "Shrimp and Seafood Risotto", with 6 pieces of cut "Xiangke Orange" next to it, and 4 pieces of cut "Flavored Smoked Sausage" and a little "Lettuce Salad" on the right.
Blanche ordered the main course of 'Vegetable Stewed Beef Brisket', which included carrots, beef brisket, corn slices and a small amount of green cabbage, with 6 'baked potato cubes' and 7 'ruby strawberries'.
Hershia's lunch today was 'White Sea Bass Seafood Stew', which included fried sea bass, a few oysters and cherry tomatoes, with 5 slices of 'whole wheat bread slices' and 12 'colorful berries'.
Finally, the four of them had the same 'Iced Green Wind Liqueur' as a drink, which was not too sweet and was very refreshing. The
four of them talked about recent current affairs while eating.
The Federation has been at peace for a long time, and now everyone is concerned about the economy and entertainment. Speaking of entertainment, we have to mention 'Moli Kexing', which held an event in Academy City not long ago.
"I happened to be in a street cafe that day, and it was Senior Elklu who took me to familiarize myself with the environment, and I saw her performance across the central street." Blanche recalled.
"I don't care much about this, and I only heard about it today." Shui Yanqing enjoyed her lunch slowly.
"Her." Although Orles didn't elaborate, it was obvious that she didn't like this singer who was commercially hyped.
"Using the reputation of a singer, saying that she is the best singer and the pinnacle of mortals, is all to stimulate the pitiful empathy of those people at the bottom."
Although Orles has only entered the Golden Flame Flower Academy now, she has been in the field of singers for more than ten years, and she can see through such commercial behavior at a glance.
"Alas, I thought she sang very well at that time." Blanche said in a low voice. She really envied her voice and vocal skills.
"Those acquired things, as long as you look for them carefully, you will definitely find the right person, train them, and package them, and a brand new singer will be born."
"You don't even need people. If you use advanced AI to simulate human voice, it can even sing more gracefully and diversely than real people, and the voice line can change at will."
"These are just superficial appearances." Orles was very disdainful of this.
"Is that so?" Blanche lowered her head a little disappointed. She had been thinking that she would work hard to practice singing and vocal skills in the future, but now she was hit so hard that she had no motivation.
Seeing this, Shui Yanqing gently held her hand and spoke soothingly.
"It's okay, Orles just hates this kind of excessive commercial behavior. It's not that there's anything wrong with her good skills."
"Even if she is a singer, she has to practice more. If she doesn't use her natural ability, she may not be better than those singers in terms of pure vocal skills." Heshia also said a few words.
Orles wanted to say a few more words about this, but Heshia held her legs to remind her, so she had to hold it back for the time being and glanced at the scenery outside the window.
It was a little quiet at this time, and then the topic shifted to other aspects, and then it slowly became active again.
After lunch, the four of them returned to their respective residences, and then moved to the place arranged by the school to live.
"In other words, this area is all for me?"
At four o'clock in the afternoon, Heshia stopped in front of the gate of the mansion that looked like a manor, and spoke in surprise.
"That's right, Heshia, this area is about the size of two football fields, and it's all allocated to you." The black-haired, red-eyed student leader introduced Heshia.
"My name is Sevilla, and I'm here to help Heshia arrange accommodation today." After lunch, the girl, who was similar in height to Tilan, waited for her in front of the freshman dormitory.
Taking Heshia around the area and introducing it, Sevilla talked about the uses of these buildings.
"The whole area can be surrounded by a wall that blocks the view, or it can be replaced with a quiet fence, or even left open. This area is located outside the Golden Flame Flower Academy, which means that you can leave the school area directly from here without going through the main entrance or side entrance of the school."
"Inside the area, you can arrange for people to live as you like, but if the residents want to enter the school, they need to apply for a pass, which requires your guarantee, and there is a limit on the number of people."
As Sevilla said, she used her personal terminal to unfold the map projection. It can be seen that the entire Golden Flame Flower Academy occupies a shield-shaped area, and the residences of these singers are arranged in the top row of the shield, directly connected to the outside world.
"There are classical-style mansions in the area, and the rooms and bedrooms inside can provide normal living for about 60 people. You can also change the style and architectural style yourself, but you have to spend money on it, and the school will restore it to its original state after graduation."
If the singers are still trained and studied like normal students in high school, everything becomes different when they go to college. This model is essentially training leaders of large groups and managing their own teams. These divided residential areas are like a country within a country in the school, and the singers have a lot of autonomy and control.
This model actually slowly exposed some essential things. The perspectives of the upper echelons of the Federation and ordinary people on the singers are completely different.
For ordinary people, the existence of singers is similar to those of singers, with moving performances, strong appeal, beautiful and distant.
But in the eyes of the upper echelons of the Federation, these singers are natural leaders, with unparalleled personal charm and persuasive ability, and even with the blessing and synchronization ability of extraordinary effects. They are even stronger and more effective than the fleet in maintaining the integrity and unity of the Federation, and the natural appeal of the singers can always gather a lot of people to serve them.
Instead of leaving this kind of talent alone, it is better to guide and cultivate it in school to prevent some singers from being deceived and used by others due to lack of experience, or going astray, etc.
Afterwards, Sevilla took Heshia into the mansion and introduced the rooms for various purposes one by one, including a special concert hall, a grand hall, a luxurious bedroom, a bath, a fully equipped kitchen, and even a self-disciplined security unit, as well as a high-level AI control center attached to the mansion.
"As a singer, Heshia should not be short of people around her. The school does not provide relevant service personnel, so she can recruit and arrange them herself."
This is really hard to say, but Heshia resisted the urge to complain.
At night, Heshia and Ge Yin slept in the master bedroom. It felt a bit cold to have only the two of them in the huge mansion. On the other side, Blanche went to Elukelu's mansion to sleep for a night. This purple-eared big cat is now a third-year student in the school. He is very free. Occasionally he attends classes and studies, and the rest of the time he is busy with other things, or he is not busy with anything, just playing.
Unlike the two of them, Orles and Shui Yanqing moved into the mansion arranged by the school with people in a skilled and fast manner. Orles' mansion was full of elf attendants. They were not only good-looking, but many of them came from aristocratic families of elves, and they were also elites in their families, just like a luxurious palace.
Shui Yanqing's mansion was slightly different. Her mansion was like a cool and tidy scientific research center or laboratory. There were many researchers from giant companies, as well as professionals responsible for security, etc., wearing uniform uniforms and identity badges, capable and efficient.
On the second day, the three of them were invited by Orles to have lunch at her mansion. There were also several other singers from the Golden Flame Flower Academy.
"Long time no see, Tilan."
As soon as she saw Heshia, 'White Swan' Odney opened her arms and hugged her. The two talked about the past, and then walked hand in hand into the restaurant arranged by Orles. The decoration here was luxurious and it was completely arranged in just one day.
The ceiling and dome were decorated with gold and silver-blue flowers. The furniture inside was also exquisite, made of high-grade native extraordinary wood. The ice elf maids were dressed equally well. The strength of these maids was generally above Sequence 6, and they were elegant.
As one of the top five most popular singers, Orles debuted earlier than the other singers present, and her family background was the most luxurious. The dinner she hosted as the host was also luxurious.
On the long main table, there were all kinds of T3-level expensive dishes, as well as various drinks to match them. These alone cost more than millions of federal coins.
Sitting down with Odney, Heshia saw several other familiar singers. Blanche was whispering with Elklu, Pulin was sitting opposite, followed by two members in black and red uniforms. Shui Yanqing was looking at the projection screen in front of her, and seemed to be reading something. Orles was entertaining another acquaintance at the moment, who seemed to be a singer.
"When did Tilan come? Why didn't you contact me?" After Odney sat down, she talked about this with Heshia, complaining a little.
"At that time, I thought I would look around by myself first, so as not to bother others. I didn't expect that school would start soon, and I was busy with other things, so I didn't see Odney."
Heshia said. In fact, she was not the kind of person who took the initiative to socialize. At that time, she didn't even contact Pulin, but Pulin knew the time when she came to the Central Star Region very early.
After all, the two came from the same place, and many acquaintances would tell each other about each other's news. "You can come to my place to play for a few days when you have time. There are also many descendants of the Eastern faction in the Academy City." Odney talked about the situation here.
"I will go." Heshia agreed. She really wanted to know whether the Five Phoenixes were still inherited now.
While the two were talking, Orles also ended her conversation with the singer, and the two walked over together.
"Welcome everyone to the party I'm hosting today. This is Idria, the 'Ultramarine Dyeing'."
After saying this, the singer in a dark blue dress bent over and greeted everyone. She looked about 28 years old and a little mature.
