Chapter 286: Chinese Tobacco Sells

And Li Chengji, who is alone, is thinking about what he has done since he crossed over. I wonder if I have become the kind of hypocrite who has benevolence and morality in his mouth, but does things that are not as good as pigs and dogs.

Even if his intellect tells him that this is the way it is. All truths are based on the fist. But the three views of modern society still affect him subconsciously.

It's just the process of getting to know yourself, it's not that easy. Just like a lot of people think they know themselves! In fact, most of the time, it's not as good as the enemy who knows himself well. In the end, people like to see the good side, so they are used to seeing their own strengths and ignoring their own shortcomings.

Even though Li Chengji is an old criminal policeman with a lot of experience, different eras, different identities, and different feelings have made him unconsciously change. But psychologically, he rarely really realizes this.

This is two hours. Li Dali, who interrogated Tuwugedi, also got a lot of key clues. came to Li Chengji's room and wanted to report to him.

Zhu Qing, who was guarding outside, saw him coming, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Vigorously, the young master has a lot of temperament." You have always been favored by the young master, so please persuade the young master. ”。 After that, he told the matter of the jade.

As the secretary of the Division, there is no information that can be concealed from him. It's just that this matter involves Li Chengji's private affairs, and it is inconvenient to talk about it. Therefore, Li Dali did not report this matter to Li Chengji.

Of course, in his opinion. It's just a woman.,It's on when it's hanging.。 This is the most normal thing in the grassland. What's more, the people on the grassland have always worshiped the strong, and Li Chengji is young and talented. The achievements in the future are even more limitless.

To be his woman is to be blessed by the true God!

So in his heart, Ruyu has taken a big advantage.

But I didn't think that my master would be annoyed by this matter. A little complained that Ruyu didn't know how to lift, walked quickly to the door, and said loudly: "Young master! The branch of the Assasinites in the river has already been asked. ”。

I have to say that the method of waterboarding is really useful. Not long after Tuwugedi stiffened his mouth, he shouted that he was a demon and asked him to kill him. Then, in order to avoid experiencing this nightmare and nightmarish torment again, he recruited all the tricks.

It's a pity that he still didn't let Tuugdi die.

Just as he lamented that the waterboarding method had worked, there was silence in the door for a while, and Li Chengji's response voice was heard: "Come in!" ”。 It's a little low, but it's calm.

Li Dali retracted his thoughts and breathed a sigh of relief. He pushed open the door and stepped inside. He knows that his master has always valued public affairs the most! Now that he is angry, he can still listen to his own official duties. So it shows that his master has not been dizzy.

Because the doors and windows were closed, the room was quite dark. Li Dalichu came in from outside, and his eyes were still a little uncomfortable.

After a while, I saw Li Chengji's appearance clearly. Suddenly he looked startled and a little incredulous. Because Li Chengji's neat sideburns have been scattered, there is more decadence and less extravagance in the past.

And the room was filled with a choking smell of tobacco, which made people instinctively breathe uncomfortably.

"Ahem, cough, cough..." Li Dali coughed a few times, and his tears were choked out.

"Young Master! Why did you smoke such a heavy cigarette? ”。

This was created at the beginning of the year by the superintendent's secretary of the department. Its main ingredients are a variety of herbs that taste good and refresh the mind. It was also the Americas of this era that had not yet been discovered, and tobacco, a unique product of the Americas, could not be transmitted to Eurasia.

As an old smoker for more than 20 years, Li Chengji misses the taste of cigarettes very much. From the standpoint of seeking his own welfare, he asked Xiaozi to search for some tobacco substitutes from the database.

It's just that although you can find it, the taste is thousands of miles apart. Li Chengji couldn't get used to this mouthful, so he simply gave up.

But there is no intention to plant flowers and flowers, and there is no intention to plant willows and willows.

He felt that the counterfeit cigarettes that tasted bad were sought after by his brothers such as Kombas. Zhang Timing and others tasted it and praised it.

It is also the Koubas that they did not smoke the cigarettes of the afterlife, and they did not know the beauty of it. So in the absence of comparison, it is natural to think that this counterfeit cigarette is excellent.

This made Li Chengji see the business route, so he used different kinds of herbs to make cigarettes with different flavors. And abandon the name of later generations, and change it to 'Huayan'. It can be regarded as an obsession with Huaxia in the bottom of my heart.

And because of the high and low value of the herbs, the price of the Chinese cigarettes produced is also different. The highest, up to ten dinars, and the lowest, also require one dinar (silver). Moreover, they are all sold at the root.

Knowing the far-reaching influence of cigarettes, Li Chengji built the Chinese Tobacco Factory not long after the advent of China Tobacco. However, the production efficiency still cannot catch up with the demand on the market. At present, most of Huayan has been digested by the internal institutions such as the six departments of the Governor's Office and the Guardian Army. Only a very small part of it goes to the market. And only Li's firm sells it, and there are no other goods in other areas.

But those who have tasted Chinese smoke will be deeply impressed by it. Ordinary people, in particular, have a mentality of leaning towards the crowd. After knowing that the officials of the Governor's Mansion and the soldiers of the Guardian Army were all in good condition. It doesn't matter if it's good or not, you have to try your best to buy one and smoke it.

Speaking of which, it seems that he is the same as the officials, and his status has risen sharply.

As a result, in the land ruled by the Governor's Palace of Khorasan, smoking cigarettes became a status symbol and a trend that people flocked to.

Fortunately, the lack of industry in this era makes it impossible to manufacture many harmful additives in cigarettes. And Li Chengji himself knows the harm of cigarettes, and artificially discarded some additives. All the herbs selected by Huayan have certain medicinal value.

Therefore, smoking Chinese cigarettes is not only not harmful to the body, but also beneficial to the body.

But everything has to be done in moderation! Although smoking Chinese cigarettes is refreshing, if you smoke too much, your body can't stand it.

Therefore, Li Dali saw that Li Chengji had smoked so many cigarettes, and he couldn't help but worry about Li Chengji's body.

"It's okay!" , Li Chengji took a heavy sip, threw the remaining half on the ground, and twisted it with his foot. Li Dali looked at it and felt a little distressed. It was also brought by Li Chengji, and on weekdays, he always called for frugality. And lead by example, rarely using luxury.

This half of the high-priced Chinese cigarette is worth five to six dinars.

"What did you ask?" , Li Chengji casually put his scattered sideburns behind his head, spat out the smoke ring, and said loudly.

Li Dali hurriedly took out a few pieces of Chinese paper full of confessions from his arms, presented them in person, and said loudly: "What should be said and what should not be said are all here." ”。

Li Chengji glanced at it a few times, then explained a few words and asked him to go down and make arrangements. Li Dali had his mind in his heart, and stood cautiously under his head, as if he wanted to say something but didn't dare to say it.

"Vigorously! Do you think I'm a good person? Li Chengji looked at his expression, and his heart was in a panic, so he asked a question that he would never think about before.

"Young Master? But because of something like a jade girl? Li Dali and Li Chengji have a close relationship, and they dare to mention some topics that are not easy to mention.

"Yes and no!" Speaking of this, Li Chengji's expression became hesitant.
