Jacob, who has been taking care of himself until now, is standing behind him. Su Cheng quickly turns around and salutes ya.

Jacob still had a warm smile on his face, waved his hand and motioned Su Cheng not to salute.

"Mr. Cheng." Jacob smiled, "this is your first time to come to the year-end dinner, so there are some rules for the year-end dinner. You may not know that there is a very important rule for the year-end dinner, that is, when you enter the venue, no matter who you meet, even if you meet your majesty, you don't have to salute him."

Speaking of this, Jacob paused for a moment, and then continued in a joking tone: "otherwise, if there are so many dignitaries and dignitaries at the year-end dinner and everyone salutes one by one, the dinner won't have to be held."

After hearing Jacob's words, Su Cheng smiled twice.

Jacob makes a good point. There are so many dignitaries and dignitaries at this dinner. If everyone salutes people higher than him one by one, then the dinner doesn't have to be held.

Jacob went to the table where the juice and wine were placed, poured two glasses of wine, and then handed one of them to Su Cheng.

"Let's have a toast, Mr. Cheng."

"Ah, ah, yes, Mr. Jacob."

After Su Cheng respectfully took the glass handed over by Jacob, Jacob smiled and slightly raised the glass in his hand.

Knowing what Jacob meant, Su Cheng hurriedly raised his glass slightly.

Ding.

After the two wine glasses gently collided with each other, they pulled the wine cup back to their lips and drank the wine in the cup in one breath.

After drinking the wine from the cup, Jacob sighed and said:

"Time is really fast. It's a new year so soon. I feel like I was still having the year-end dinner of 288 yesterday. As a result, I started the year-end dinner of 289 today. The passing speed of this time is really..."

Then Jacob smiled bitterly and shook his head gently.

"Yes, time really flies."

Su Cheng agrees that time passes quickly. Like Jacob, he felt that a lot of things had just happened yesterday.

"It's not just the year-end dinner in 288. It just happened yesterday." Jacob continued to smile, "even a few months ago, I asked Mr. Cheng to become a knight and help me save Britannia from the current crisis. The scenes of that day were as clear as what had just happened this morning."

"Mr. Cheng, since you became a knight, you have told me with your actions that I was right to ask you to become a knight and help Britannia! I'm sure I'm right about people. "

"Although you only became a knight in the second half of this year, you must be very tired of what has happened in the past six months, Mr. Cheng. Just thinking about the difficulty and fatigue of commanding and winning the rescue war of Lund kingdom is enough."

Then Jacob saluted Su Cheng.

"Mr. Cheng, it's really hard for you in the past six months. Let me thank you for all the subjects of Britannia."

Su Cheng was stunned when he saw Jacob salute him, but he quickly reacted and quickly returned a salute to Jacob.

"Mr. Jacob! You're serious! After I chose to be a knight, I just did what I should do as an imperial knight, so don't thank me! "

"Moreover, if I say the degree of hard work, I certainly can't compare with your excellency! Mr. Jacob, you are the palace Minister of the Empire. You have to assist your Majesty in handling government affairs every day! In terms of the degree of hard work, I'm afraid few people in the whole empire can compare with you! I want to thank you very much! Thank you for your contribution to Britannia this year! "

After hearing Su Cheng's words, Jacob smiled bitterly and joked:

"'few of you can compare with you '... That's right. If you want to compete for the degree of hard work every day, I'm very confident that I can become the champion of the whole empire."

After hearing Jacob's jokes, Su Cheng couldn't help smiling, and then said to Jacob in a tone of admiration:

"I, Su Cheng, am just a small man. I can't thank you instead of the subjects of Britannia, but I still want to solemnly say to Mr. Jacob: Mr. Jacob, you have been really hard all the time."

Although Jacob just said this in a joking tone, Su Cheng knew that what Jacob said was the truth.

The palace phase of Britannia Empire is the highest official position that literary officials can obtain. In terms of status, it is just like the status of integrated knights in Knights.

The task of the palace minister is to help his majesty deal with government affairs. A steady stream of all kinds of government affairs come up every day.

Of course, if Gong Xiang is an irresponsible person, he can put aside these government affairs and only focus on his own enjoyment.

In the history of the British Empire, there have been several such fatuous palaces.

Su Cheng, who is very interested in history and has a lot of research, naturally knows the history of the British Empire like the back of his hand.

Before, the Britannia Empire was the most powerful country in the world. Its national strength completely exceeded the other three empires. It was a real superpower.

However, not long after it was honored as a "superpower" by the people of all countries in the world, several fatuous palaces appeared in the British Empire.

Unfortunately, during this period, not only several fatuous palaces, but also several fatuous emperors.

The fatuous emperor is matched with the fatuous palace phase.

This combination is over.

Under the "joint efforts" of these fatuous emperors and palace ministers, the national strength of the britannian Empire declined step by step, and the two titles of "superpower" and "the world's first power" were also taken away by the holy Helan Empire until now.

However, it seems that the gods have not given up Britannia. When Britannia's national strength is declining and the people are gradually disappointed and desperate, gozewen and Jacob finally appeared.

Although gozewen was a somewhat fatuous and incompetent emperor and would make some absurd strategies from time to time, he was much better than his previous emperors.

And Jacob can use his deeds as a model for all ministers in the world.

Jacob is a famous workaholic. When Su Cheng still lived in Falk's residence, he heard a little about Jacob's deeds.

On 360 days a year, Jacob has only one day to rest and do not work, that is his birthday. For the other 359 days, he works with high intensity. This life has lasted for decades until now.

The greatest feature of Jacob's administration is that he dares to use talents boldly.

As long as he thinks it is worth being used, no matter how old and qualified the person is, he will boldly use it, even if it will be opposed and disgusted by many people.

The most typical and ready-made example should be that a few months ago Jacob asked Su Cheng to become a knight to help him and Britannia.

The reason why the current national strength of the British Empire has stopped declining and started to recover is basically due to Jacob's efforts and ability.

Therefore, Su Cheng's gratitude to Jacob just now comes from his heart.

Su Cheng admires Jacob from the bottom of his heart and the old man who has been silently paying for his country.

After hearing Su Cheng's thanks, Jacob showed a happy smile.

"Thank you."

Then Jacob withdrew his happy smile and continued to say in a joking tone:

"Tonight's feast is a carnival only once a year. I may be so relaxed only one night in a year, so I will forget all the government affairs at this time of year! Let yourself fly! I'm ready to enjoy tonight's Carnival! So, Mr. Cheng, you can relax and enjoy yourself tonight! I missed tonight's feast. I don't know if I can receive the invitation next year! Ha ha ha ha! "

After hearing Jacob's witty remarks, Su Cheng smiled a few times and said:

"Mr. Jacob, don't worry. I will. In order to enjoy more delicious food tonight, I specially ate less at noon..."

Speaking of this, Su Cheng suddenly remembered something, stopped directly, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared.

"... Mr. Jacob, it may be a bit of a spectacle to say such a thing at the dinner party, but... It's really important. You can't do without saying it."

Before Jacob could answer, Su Cheng said in a deep voice:

"... Mr. Jacob, why did you recruit Alan Jones?"

As soon as Su Cheng's voice fell, Jacob's hand, which was holding the wine cup to his lips, stopped in the air.

At the same time, Jacob's face deteriorated with the naked eye.
