Chapter Forty-Eight: Calculating All the Way
You can see the post station every 30 miles, and half a mile away, there are many tea shops for pedestrians to quench their thirst. If you can't sit down, you ask for a few bowls of tea, and you and your relatives and friends choose a place to eat with cakes. Seeing this, the merchants who came and went bought and sold the goods on the spot, forming a large-scale mutual market.
But seeing a man behaving like a servant, he stopped in front of a vendor, compared it a little, and bought a hat for a few dollars. Fu asked Dr. Tea for some tea again, walked straight to a set of carriages, gently lifted the curtain in front of the car, and handed the hat of the right person to the person sitting inside.
"Lang Jun, look, this can be made?"
"Nothing else, the embroidered felt underneath is exquisite! Ming'er, take a look, do you like it? ”
It turned out that Shang Chen and his entourage had been walking for three days and passing through no less than 15 post stations. Today, I deliberately stayed for a moment, looked at the surrounding customs and folklore, and compared my clothes, so as not to arrive at Nanzhao and show my feet in my speech.
"Lang Jun is too picky! But if you use it to cover the dough, you can use it, so why pick the fat and pick the thin? As she spoke, Ming Yi broke a piece of the resurgence [Ming Tooth Cake] and handed it to Lang Jun, and the remaining half of it took a bite and sent it down with the hot tea that Peng Xin had just received.
Peng Xin was interested, leaned out early in the morning, rested the curtain, Xu was tired of being a little and a little in the car, he first poured himself a big bowl of tea, and Fang and Peng Xiao and Peng Ze feasted.
Ming Yi quietly looked at the crowd outside the car, and suddenly said: "Lang Jun, look, those barbarians in front, with gold teeth and black teeth, didn't they come from the Annan Metropolitan Protectorate?" ”
Shang Chen already knew Mingyi's origins, and deliberately asked: "Ming'er, you are a country girl, and you still know the Annan Metropolitan Protectorate!" Even the barbarians with gold teeth and black teeth know it, it's so powerful! ”
Ming Yi raised his forehead and sneered: "I was born in a small village, I can't travel thousands of miles, I can read thousands of books!" ”
Shang Chen still plays with taste: "Did someone teach you to read?" ”
Just looking at his face, Ming Yi knew that he was teasing, and couldn't help but urge: "Yes, a master named Kong Yiji!" ”
Where did Shang Chen know the reason, so he said seriously: "This gentleman's surname is Kong, could it be that he is the queen of Sage Kong?" ”
Ming Yi laughed, and continued: "Instead of theorizing about these things that don't matter, you might as well figure out what we plan to do next!" ”
Shang Chen felt reasonable, hurriedly threw away his previous words, called Peng Xin in, and said it to him with a suitable speculation.
Peng's confidence was rare, and he said to Ming Yizan: "Ming Niangzi's eyes are very sharp, these barbarians are more than the northern part of Duhufu, the southwestern part of Yunnan and Yongchang County, and they are not noble in the territory of Nanzhao. The little one also had a long time to get to know these Riba people from the guy's side. ”
Shang Chen's smile at the moment was comparable to the title of the gold list, and he asked softly, "Does Ming'er know how to talk to them?" ”
Peng Xin saw that his own Langjun was so flattering, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching.
Ming Yi was not without pride, "Pengxin, can there be a scorpion tail banana in the palace?" ”
Peng Xin hurriedly came back to his senses, thought about it for a while, and said after consideration: "There is one in Nanzhao, can it be treated?" ”
Ming Yiqi said: "Why? ”
Peng Xin said: "The teacher of King Nanzhao [Yi Mu Xun] [Manli] was originally a Han Chinese, and his real name was Zheng Hui. Who would have thought that that year, he was appointed as the commander of Xilu County in Yunzhou, and because the barbarians came to attack, he was taken prisoner. The late Nanzhao King [Ge Luofeng] spared his talent and ordered him to teach the royal family's descendants, often criticizing Confucian scholarship. The second is the appreciation of qin, chess, calligraphy and painting. Therefore, it is more expensive to the Central Plains. Those local flowers are unsightly! ”
Ming Yi smiled: "That's better!" ”
Peng Xin was puzzled: "How do you say this? ”
Ming Yifen said: "Put the flowers and plants in its territory into the flower path, and it is not inferior to the Central Plains Yayi, and paste gold on the face of the king of Nanzhao, isn't it good?" ”
Peng Xin was jubilant at first, and then hesitated, "This idea is good, but Ming Niang, are you sure that you can win the appreciation of the royal family?" ”
Shang Chen didn't wait for Ming Yi to answer, and said straightly: "Appreciation is ironclad, just bless not to be favored by a prince!" ”
Ming Yi echoed and said, "Lang Jun is wise! ”
Peng Xin couldn't help but pantothenic acid, and couldn't help but open the tripe wine sac, poured a sip of [pit tea], and was smooth.
Ming Yi sniffed her nose and her eyes lit up, "Peng Xin, what kind of tea are you drinking?" ”
