Because Cheng Yanjin is an important minister in the court, the emperor has a lot of rewards every year for imperial tribute things such as watermelons, and Cheng Yanjin and Cui's naturally have not eaten less.

It's just that this time the two watermelons brought back by Cheng Boyu's little grandson are so different, not to mention that they are big enough, the taste of the watermelon is several times more than that of Yugong watermelon, it is simply the best among melons and fruits, and it is a delicacy in the world that their old couple has never eaten!

Of course, this is only the taste of the watermelon itself, for a super martial artist whose force value has entered the dark stage, Cheng Yanjin attaches more importance to the unique effect of the watermelon after it enters the belly.

Not only Cheng Biting Jin, but even Cui, who doesn't understand martial arts, also realized the difference of watermelon after eating a few bites of watermelon.

Diet!

The feeling of watermelon after entering the stomach is similar to the medicinal diet that they have to eat once a year in Chengfu, how can this not make the two old people frightened?

"Tell me, what the hell is going on? Where did these two watermelons come from? ”

Cheng Yanjin and Cui Shi all looked up at Cheng Boyu, the shock brought to them by these two watermelons was really great, and no one thought that these two seemingly ordinary watermelons actually contained effects similar to medicinal diets.

They have long been deeply aware of the role of medicinal diet, and they are even more aware of the high price of medicinal diet, otherwise they would not be able to eat it once a year for a wealthy family like their Lu Guogong Mansion, which can be regarded as one of the best in the entire Tang Dynasty.

It's not that I don't want to eat more, it's that I can't afford to eat.

There are hundreds of dishes at every turn, even Emperor Taizong couldn't withstand it back then, let alone their Cheng Mansion.

"Taiyuan, Tang family." Cheng Boyu said with a smug face: "This is the first time that Sun Er discovered it, Grandpa, haven't you noticed that Sun Er is already a beginner martial artist of Ming Jin now?" ”

"Yay?"

Cheng Biting Jin was stunned for a moment, he really didn't pay much attention to it just now, but now he looked carefully, and saw that Cheng Boyu was full of red light, his eyes were bright, and he obviously showed a performance of overflowing spirit, which was indeed a good practice of internal strength.

Just how is this possible? This kid has eaten medicinal food for so many years, and I haven't seen him gather a trace of internal strength, didn't the family and himself have already given up and are ready to let him abandon martial arts? How did all of a sudden there be such an obvious breakthrough?

"The Taiyuan Tang family you are talking about won't be the descendants of Tang Wangchuan, right?" Cheng Yanjin squinted his eyes and asked Cheng Boyu in confusion: "But even if it is Tang Wangchuan himself, he shouldn't have such a great ability, otherwise, if you eat the medicinal food he left behind for so many years, you won't be able to break through for a long time." ”

Cheng Boyu replied: "Grandpa guessed well, it is Tang Wangchuan's grandson - Tang Xiu." The two watermelons you just ate were from Tang Xiu's handwriting, and the problem that his grandson had never been able to condense his qi was also easily solved by him. ”

At the beginning, a bowl of water in the Tang Mansion made Cheng Boyu have earth-shaking changes, and now he naturally will not spare his praise.

"Oh?" Cheng Biting Jin's eyebrows raised, "The descendants of Tang Yishou still have such skills?" How old is that Tang Xiu? ”

Cheng Boyu bowed down and said, "One year younger than my grandson." ”

"Sixteen?" Cheng Yanjin nodded lightly, "That can be regarded as a bright young genius, blue is better than blue, you have a good relationship with him?" ”

Cheng Biting Jin didn't worry too much about Tang Xiu's age, similar young genius Cheng Biting Jin has also seen a lot, when he first debuted, there were more hairy boys than him, like Li Yuanba, Luo Shixin and the like, which one was not famous as a teenager? Therefore, Cheng Yanjin has always believed that there are geniuses in this world.

"Huh?" was stunned by Old Man Cheng's sentence of young genius, Cheng Boyu couldn't bear to tell Tang Xiu's ruined deeds in Taiyuan, and replied respectfully: "There are some friendships, our two families are neighbors in Taiyuan, and this watermelon can only be purchased from their Tang family's manor because of the relationship near the water." And now except for our Cheng family, I haven't seen him sell watermelons to anyone else. ”

"That means no one else knows about it?" Cheng Yanjin asked in a whisper, and when he saw Cheng Boyu nodding, he asked again: "How is the price of this watermelon calculated?" ”

"Ten pounds a pound." Cheng Boyu whispered back: "The two watermelons you brought back to the second elder cost a total of three hundred and twenty times." ”

"Ten pounds of money?!"

Cheng Yanjin and Cui's eyes widened at the same time, their faces full of disbelief.

"Ten yuan a catty, I also feel a little expensive." Thinking that the two old men were frightened by such a high price, Cheng Boyu timidly explained: "And each of their watermelons has a weight of nearly twenty catties, and a watermelon will cost nearly two hundred yuan to eat, and the grandson will be very distressed to eat." But there was no way, Tang Xiu didn't cut the price even if he was alive or dead, and Sun Er's current cultivation couldn't do without these watermelons, so he could only let him slaughter them...... Ouch! Grandpa, why are you beating people again......"

was inexplicably kicked on the buttocks, Cheng Boyu screamed in pain, and looked at Old Man Cheng with a dissatisfied face while holding his buttocks.

"You kid knows a! I really don't know how much it costs to prepare a full banquet for you every year in order to prepare a full banquet for you? Cheng Biting Jin looked at Cheng Boyu angrily, stretched out five fingers and roared loudly: "Five hundred guan, even the cheapest dish will cost Lao Tzu at least five hundred guan, and the most expensive two thousand guan can't be beaten." ”

"One table of eight dishes, a family of two people, you rabbit cub calculate by yourself how much Lao Tzu will cost to make you eat a delicious medicinal food New Year's banquet?"

"Twenty thousand! 20,000! Lao Tzu's year's income plus the harvest of all the industries in the house have all been filled into your stomach, and now you can buy watermelons that are enough to cover two plates of medicinal food for only one or two hundred yuan, do you still think it is expensive? Is...... It's really a pearl secret cast, yes, that's the word, the pearl fucking cast into the hands of your rabbit cub! ”

What's the rhythm?

Cheng Boyu looked at the old man who lost his temper with a stunned face, and the old man lost his temper not because he bought things expensively, but because he felt that he bought things cheaply? What is the rationale for this?

"Okay, don't talk nonsense, how many watermelons do they have in their house?" After scolding for a long time, Cheng Yanjin finally brought the topic back to the topic.

Cheng Boyu replied cautiously: "Two or three acres, depending on the growth of melon seedlings and the size of watermelons in the ground, there must be at least more than 10,000 catties." In addition to wanting my grandparents to try it this time, my grandson wants to ask my grandfather for some money to go back, and the only savings in the family have been eaten by my father and I these days, and now I can only come back to ask grandpa for help! ”

"I said, why are you a little rabbit cub suddenly willing to run back from Taiyuan," Cheng Biting Jin looked at his grandson with a clear face, gritted his teeth and said: "It's been a long time, it turns out that you came back to borrow money from Lao Tzu?!" If it weren't for the fact that you two had no money in their hands, I wouldn't have been able to eat the watermelon of the Tang Mansion until now, right? ”

"Uh, that ......"

Cheng Boyu lowered his head and couldn't speak, the old man said it really well, if it weren't for the tight money, Tang Xiu refused to take credit, and he and Laozi, who wanted to break through the current realm, really didn't have the time to come back to see this old man, let alone send him a watermelon.
