"Our ten-color note is not only the theme of the six rites, although the bright color on the paper is the main selling point, but it has changed the rigid and stereotyped color of the rice paper, and each color also has its own meaning, and even the special gold paper for the saint is the pure gold powder used!" Qingqi reminded at the right time.

"Shall we take a look, then, in the East City?" It seems that Princess Afifa is in great interest.

"On the first floor, the original location of the Dongshi rice paper is placed with jade treasures, which is a gathering area for the elite class, which is more suitable for the identity of expensive objects!"

"Jade treasures? Where is the national treasure you mentioned earlier? Is there a white jade quality ornament? ”

"Hehe, this white jade is the lowest grade of jade in our place."

Qingqi's words made the expressions on the faces of the two Nasir change frequently, as if they had thought of something, and Princess Afifa suddenly laughed:

"It turns out that I have lived in Datang for three years, and I don't know anything about your country at all, and I always think that except for our Arab Empire, other regions are barbarian and backward places. Even when I saw that Chang'an City was more prosperous than Medina in my impression, I only thought it was because of the abundance of water and soil. It turns out that your country has become rich to the point that I am dazzled, but it is ridiculous that I have learned a lot of Chinese, but because I am closed, it affects my perception of the real environment! ”

Li Zhi smiled lightly: "That's because of the many inconveniences of religious beliefs, but if you don't get in touch with more differences between the two, you will never be able to truly integrate into it!" For example, since the envoy was sent here and did not try to integrate into the local society, how could he deeply understand the Tang culture and way of thinking and doing things? ”

"What Mr. Li said is that it seems that there will be more people to walk around in the future!"

Nasir wiped the sweat from his forehead, because he lacked understanding of the current society of the Tang Dynasty, and he was on the verge of getting into big trouble today, when Li Zhike kept saying that he wanted to take their lives.

Maybe ordinary people are boasting about themselves when they say this, or they are saying some cruel things, but the cultivation world is originally a completely different and strong environment, and it is impossible to say that one of them is not handled properly, and today it can be regarded as a fold here.

Because this person has the emperor's imperial sword in his hand, he doesn't know what kind of ghost he was fascinated by at that moment, and he actually wanted to tease this person's wife.

Princess Afifa had long forgotten what had happened, and she was only eager to get in touch with everything that Zhengqing Wenqitang had to do to make up for the lack of fun due to arrogance.

Otherwise, if she lives that meaningless life again, she will be driven crazy.

So when Nasir was in a state of deep fear, Princess Afifa had already taken Qingqi's hand and rushed to the place where the rice paper on the first layer was.

Li Zhi took this opportunity to pull Nasir, who wanted to follow, "Honorable envoy, you can't let Princess Afifa wander like this!" Every product of our Zhengqing Wenqitang is extremely expensive, I don't think she has much money in her consciousness, and it is not a small amount to purchase all the way, just the snuff bottle I saw that she bought dozens of them, a girl, what is the use of those things? ”

He didn't have a conscience, when these people handed over the silver taels, he used his true qi to probe a few people, and there was no sign of a rapid heartbeat at that moment.

This shows that the people who come can't see thousands of taels of silver at all, and they have real purchasing power.

The reason why he made such a reminder was only to deliberately win people's hearts, and he found that these people were just a little arrogant, and their character was not a bigger flaw, but it was still worth handing over.

Moreover, the identity of the people is here, representing the entire Umayyad Dynasty, even if Gaozong sees them, he will give them great respect.

As long as these people have a good impression of themselves and earn their silver, they will be more at ease, after all, there are still actual wars between the Tang Dynasty and some vassal countries of the Arab Empire.

Li Zhi is not so naïve, because he has a good relationship with them, and he can influence the direction of those wars.

Since he is considered half an enemy, he naturally has no psychological barrier to how to squeeze their silver.

Sure enough, Li Zhi's words instantly attracted Nasir's great favor, and it was the first time he had seen that as a businessman, he was honestly thinking about the customer, and the customer had provoked him before.

This person even bluntly pointed out that Princess Afifa bought his snuff bottles, and there were signs of impulsiveness, and Li Zhi was deliberately reminding himself to strictly control Princess Afifa's strong desire to buy, after all, she was only a fifteen-year-old child.

"Hahaha, Mr. Li, you are very nice, thank you for considering our guests! To be honest, it's hard to imagine that such a shrewd businessman would stop us from spending money in your shop, which shows that Mr. Li is a very kind person! ”

Nasir's tone was full of emotion.

"No, I'm not that kind, I wish you had bought all the things in our store! But there is still a record of your official salary, don't spend unrestrainedly to please the children, and affect your corrupt reputation as an envoy to the Tang Dynasty! Please forgive me for my inappropriate wording! Li Zhi told the truth.

"Hahaha, I really didn't misread you, what Mr. Li said is true! Then I'll give you a thorough explanation, our emperor didn't care about this little daughter, tens of thousands of taels of silver are just her pocket money, but Mr. Li's suggestion is also true, you can't let her really buy a few national treasures, too much I can't explain! ”

"So I have to remind the adults in advance, Princess Afifa is still young and doesn't know how to control herself, so she must be strictly controlled by the adults! Okay, let's go over immediately, and you can also find an opportunity to remind your subordinates and persuade them in many ways. ”

Seeing that the goal was achieved, Li Zhi was already trying to inform the county lord of Qingqi, don't show his attitude too obviously.

The first floor is still overcrowded, and the biggest sales are still paper towels and ten-color notes.

In terms of paper towels, as he calculated, the better the inferior straw paper outside, the more people will feel that the quality of Zhengqing Wenqitang paper towels is good through comparison.

Those who can afford to buy paper towels will never buy straw paper as a substitute. On the other hand, those who buy straw paper do not have the ability to use paper towels, and there will be no conflict between the two.

At this time, Tong Lao Liu came to report, and several people in official uniforms came outside the door, and they wanted to see Li Zhi by name.

Li Zhi instantly understood, it seems that the previous conflict has been reported, for the imperial court, this is a major event, and there is no room for sloppiness.

When they came outside, a few people with quite serious expressions still squeezed out a smile when they saw Li Zhi, and they were still quite in awe of a person who was always carrying a Shang Fang sword and was extremely skilled, as long as he was in the know.

But this is a major event that can affect the relationship between the only two super empires in the world, and the normal procedure of interrogation is to be followed.

Li Zhi didn't care about the attitude of the people who came, not to mention that the people still showed their goodwill first, so he led a few people to the backyard, where there was still less crowding.

He deliberately showed that the relationship was already close after not fighting and not acquaintance, and then he talked about the reason for the conflict.

There is no doubt that his reason is very sufficient, his wife is being molested, and it is difficult to eliminate the evil spirit in his chest if he is replaced by anyone, and he is also a family member of a cultivator.

After these people asked more people, they were relieved, and it was already more than half of the hour, and it was only half an hour before the market closed.

Li Zhi and the third daughter had already delayed two meals, and when he was about to invite the guests to dinner, Qingqi had already led them out to find them.

"Knowing that the market is going to be closed soon, Princess Afifa suggested that we go to dinner, and I suggest that they come to our Wenqitang to eat, anyway, Lao Liu Tou is here, and the taste will not be bad!"

Li Zhi nodded and looked at Nasir: "Your Excellency, the chef I have there is not worse than the imperial chef in the palace, but I don't know your dietary taboos, and I still have to find out!" ”

Nasir replied with a smile: "The Qur'an states that it is strictly forbidden to drink all alcoholic beverages in formal settings, but the degree of taboo in private is relaxed. I don't drink hard wine, I heard that Mrs. Qingqi said that Mr. Li has excellent wine, and our Abdul family has obtained a lot of fine wine in Europe, so I really fell in love with that sip, so I am looking forward to Mr. Li's wine. ”

"Not only wine, but also dozens of fruit wines, which should be more suitable for women's love!" Li Zhi nodded.

"Also, we consider animals that are not bled to be prohibited, and we prohibit the consumption of pork, dog, cat, and generally fish, horse, and donkey. Most believers don't like to eat sea cucumbers, crabs, etc., and they don't eat scaleless fish. When receiving any Arab guests, Mr. Li remembers to make sure to arrange halal banquets, especially to avoid pork and other foods that they do not eat in the cold basin. ”

Princess Afifa added: "We generally think that the left hand is dirty, and it is taboo to use the left hand to pass objects, especially food. When we are a guest in our house, the host will grab some meat and rice with his right hand and share it with everyone, so don't refuse, don't show embarrassment, and don't want to accept it. When accepting tea from the host, we generally think that it is more civilized to receive it with both hands, but in Arab countries, you should be careful not to take it with both hands, but with your right hand. When handing them something, be careful not to use your left hand. ”

Li Zhi was already a little disgusted when he heard this, as if he understood what he was thinking, and Pang Si, who came with him, hurriedly responded with a smile to Princess Afifa:

"I have heard that Allah created everything in the universe and created mankind and created everything on earth for mankind to be enjoyed and allowed to eat all the food that is lawful and delicious. Therefore, in the Qur'an, it is forbidden to eat filthy food, but it is not necessary for Muslims to deliberately eat vegetarian or dieting food in order to practice or show their devotion to the teachings. ”

"Generally speaking, the dietary taboo in Islam is mainly focused on the meat of livestock, which is based on the principle that the meat eaten must be clean. In the case of meat, it is not edible, whether it is self-killed or slaughtered. The latter can only be eaten if they are slaughtered according to law, and their flesh is not edible without intentional slaughter or self-death. Self-death refers to being beaten to death, dying of illness, dying of touching, dying of resistance, falling to death, and dying by lightning. However, in a non-Islamic environment, it is not possible to do this completely, and it is necessary to take care of the owner's own beliefs, so as long as it is slaughtered, it is okay. ”

Nasir continued: "Actually, this is just like what you said in the Tang Dynasty Art of War, the generals are outside, and the military orders are not obeyed!" If you are proficient in the use of the above various contingency strategies and the adverse consequences they will have, it is actually not that complicated. I think that mutual respect is more important than taboos, and some people who don't understand each other can laugh it off and don't have to worry about everything! ”

As they spoke, they gathered their own people and hurried to Wenqitang, where they could only come by bypassing the main gate of the West Market.

Opposite is the wine shop, the back kitchen is also there, Tong Lao Liu and others went to inform Lao Liu Tou, by the way to bring some wine back.

I heard that the Zhanyuan Pavilion that I passed by before was also Li Zhi's mansion, and Princess Afifa proposed to come in and have a visit.

It just so happened that no one around Li Zhi had ever entered, so Qingqi opened the courtyard door and introduced everyone!
