"Slaves don't dare." Du Baozhu carefully restrained his emotions and sat down again.

Only then did Li Jie lift off his wide sleeved robe and pour her a cup of tea.

He used a set of celadon tea sets produced by Dingzhou porcelain kiln today, and the body of the pot outlined the lines of the bamboo forest with a thin pen tip, which looked very cool.

The tea flowing from the light green spout was a clear golden yellow, and as the light water vapor rose, Du Baozhu smelled a faint aroma of tea, and his pupils couldn't help but constrict: "This is ......"

She thought that Li Jie breaking the relationship between her and Song Wen was the most terrible thing today, but it wasn't until she saw the tea in that cup that she knew that Li Jie was prepared today.

That tea is not the spice sencha that is used to drinking in this era, but the clear tea brewed by the brewing method of later generations!

How is this possible? Although Du Baozhu is not good at history, he also learned some tea ceremony things along the way when he was pleasing customers. She was pretty sure that this way of drinking tea was not popular in this era.

This...... Was she, a visitor from another time and space, flapping her wings and setting off a storm in the late Tang Dynasty? Or has Lee Kit discovered her secret? A storm set off in Du Baozhu's eyes, and countless thoughts flipped in her mind. It took a while to regain his composure.

People in this era are still superstitious about ghosts and gods, and the "Old Tang Book" even records the miracle of a woman who wakes up from a serious illness and becomes a man. Therefore, even if someone notices that she is different from the previous Du Baozhu, it is impossible to guess her identity, and it will only be regarded as an unexplained miracle.

Li Jie couldn't test her with a cup of tea.

Du Baozhu clenched his palms and tried to calm himself: "The tea brewed by His Highness today is so wonderful, I have never seen such a clear and fragrant tea." ”

"It's just a freshly made thing." Li Jie took a sip of the teacup, his lowered eyes did not show half of his emotions.

It doesn't seem to be a temptation. Du Baozhu was infected by Li Jie's natural demeanor and gradually calmed down.

What about the turning point in history? Didn't she decide to reverse the fate of the Du family on the first day she came here? Even if it caused a storm, it would only make the difficulties she had to face greater.

Following Li Jie's appearance, Du Baozhu brought the small tea cup in front of him to his lips and took a sip gently.

The little girl is full of blood, no lipstick, and her lips are still as red as petals. Printed on the icy green rim of the cup, it seems that spring flowers reflect the autumn moon.

Li Jie's eyes were stained with a touch of gloom, and his gaze fell on Du Baozhu's face for a long time.

Du Baozhu didn't notice Li Jie's gaze, and all her attention was on the cup of tea in front of her.

At the beginning, she was pressed for time, and she did not have time to improve the tea making method, so she could only use the existing tea balls to replace the black tea to make milk tea. One of the biggest defects is that the tea aroma is too light and not mellow enough.

Recently, Li Jie's tea is very different from the tea of the past, although it is still a tea ball made by ordinary steaming method, but the taste of the cooked tea is very light, the astringency is very light, and it is slightly sweet. It is somewhat close to the tea made by the modern brewing method.

Aware of this, the turmoil in her heart finally subsided.

It can be seen that Li Jie did not come up with the invention of roasted tea that was ahead of the times, but as he said, he just used the brewing method on a whim.

"You are the owner behind the new tea shop, how about looking at my new cup of tea?" Li Jie's cold voice sounded in the room, and he didn't show much emotion.

Du Baozhu hesitated for a moment and did not answer.

Now she can't understand Li Jie's intentions, she can't see whether Li Jie has confirmed Song Wen's identity, and she can't see Li Jie's purpose in inviting her to have tea.

What is the mystery hidden in this cup of tea? Could it be that Li Jie didn't charge the one million money because he wanted to take away the new tea shop?

Du Baozhu's eyes dimmed, and his delicate little face quickly became cold and distant: "The new tea shop is the brainchild of the slave, and I ask Your Highness to raise your noble hand." ”

As soon as her words fell, a storm immediately set off in Li Jie's eyes, but before she could see it clearly, the wind and rain dissipated in an instant. When he raised his eyes again, Li Jie had already turned back into His Royal Highness King Shou, who was not shocked: "This king is not an unkind person, so naturally he will not do evil things that win people's love, you can rest assured." ”

He seemed to have lost the interest in small talk, and his white jade-like fingertips tapped lightly on the table a few times, and finally got back to the point: "The 100-day covenant is the 100-day covenant, I will not withdraw this money in advance, nor will I tell you the name of the murderer in advance." ”

Although dissatisfied, Du Baozhu knew that Li Jie could pinch his little ant to death at any time. After bowing calmly, she whispered grateful: "Your Highness keeps her promise so much, which really makes the slave admire. In that case, wait for the hundred-day period to expire, and the slave will come to visit you again. ”

After speaking, he took the ben back into his arms and exited the private room.

Indoors, Li Jie looked down at the slightly lighter layer of tea in front of him, and the light under his eyes was dim and difficult to distinguish. After a while, he poured the tea in the cup into the potted plant on the side with a cold face.

Coming out of the Ruyi Teahouse, Du Baozhu's vest was already soaked with sweat. When I was blown by the wind, I felt a chill.

Lu Ming saw that her face was pale, and he came up nervously: "Has Your Highness embarrassed you?" ”

Du Baozhu shook her head tiredly, talking to Li Jie had exhausted her mind. At the moment she didn't want to say anything, she just wanted to rest.

Lu Ming saw her tiredness and glanced up at the teahouse. However, he didn't see His Royal Highness King Shou, only saw his former companion He Feng standing in the shadows, his eyes calm and cold.

It's a different path. Lu Ming's heart choked, he didn't dare to look at it anymore, and helped Du Baozhu to sit back in the carriage.

The horse-drawn carriage slowly moved along the street, and from time to time you could see men wearing To's coupon bank vests shuttling through the shops, promoting the information of vouchers to customers.

Time is running out. Du Baozhu bit his lower lip and didn't open his mouth until his blood was gone: "Go to the coupon store." ”

In the coupon shop, Shopkeeper He was so busy that his feet didn't touch the ground, and when Du Baozhu came, he didn't have time to receive him.

Du Baozhu didn't bother him, went up to the second floor alone, and spread out the drawings in the separated office to draw the design.

After a while, Shopkeeper He took off from the affairs: "Little lady, what do you have to say?" ”

"How many stores have we pulled in now?"

"About three hundred." He Wannian knew these data well, and as soon as Du Baozhu asked, he spoke in detail: "There are still more than a hundred families, and they are still hesitating and do not plan to join us." ”

There are thousands of shops in the entire Chang'an City, and now the bond bank has not even half of the partners. Du Baozhu's brows furrowed and loosened, and he nodded after a while: "Everyone work harder, you can pull as much as you can before the deadline." ”

Since the opening of the bond bank, the profits of the shops cooperating with the bond bank have increased more or less, and only the bond bank itself has not made much money.

He Wannian's stomach was full of doubts, and he didn't understand why his little lady was spending money to expand the business of the securities store instead of expanding the new tea shop.

However, he knew that Du Baozhu would not come nonsense, so no matter how many questions he had, he didn't ask more, but just lowered his head and recorded Du Baozhu's words on paper.

Du Baozhu thought slowly and said a few more things.

At this moment, there was a sudden noise downstairs. A guy from a coupon store rushed upstairs in three steps and two steps: "Shopkeeper He, Mrs. Liu from Liu Ji Wine Store is here again!" ”

He Wannian listened, turned his head and explained to Du Baozhu: "In the past few days, our propaganda activities have been huge, and Liu Niangzi has been here a few times and wants to join the conference exceptionally. Because it wasn't time for you to say anything, I let the guys ignore her. ”

"Well done." Du Baozhu nodded, very clear about the Liu family's motives for coming here.

Sun Fang is not a bodhisattva who does good deeds, he is willing to hand over a profitable wine shop to the Liu family, so he naturally wants the Liu family to solve the trouble for him.

Now that half a month has passed, Du Baozhu has not been to the wine shop once, nor has he asked the wine shop for trouble. What Liu was afraid of was that Sun Fang couldn't see her credit, so he gave up on her and took back the liquor store.

The Liu family finally has its own income, and there is no need to rely on the second uncle Du Yanlin, where is the willingness to go back to the past and worry about Du Yanlin abandoning her and worrying about the days when the Zhou family dealt with her?

Therefore, she came to the bond store, saying that she wanted to participate in the conference, but it was better to find Du Baozhu's ballast.

Du Baozhu naturally wouldn't give her a chance, and sat upstairs without moving. After Liu left, she Shi Shiran went downstairs.

"Little lady." When a few old guys who knew the details saw Du Baozhu, they came up with a smile: "Don't worry, the servant has already driven the Liu lady away!" ”

"She doesn't look at what kind of identity she is, she dares to make trouble with our little lady!"

The guys talked lively, and Du Baozhu's shadow of being scared out by Li Jie was gradually dispelled.

Isn't the reason why she is busy building fortresses is to protect these little people who love life? How history rushes has nothing to do with her, whether the rebel army or the rebel army has nothing to do with her, as long as she can alleviate the suffering of the people, what she did is right, and she doesn't need that damn Li Jie to judge!

However, the atmosphere of the bond bank did not last long, and a clever figure suddenly broke in.

"Jiaojiao'er, it's really you." With a courteous smile on his face, Liu Shi couldn't help but take Du Baozhu's hand and patted it: "I passed by here before, and I said that I saw your figure." I wanted to talk to you, but these minions wouldn't let me in......"

Du Baozhu's eyebrows twitched, and Lu Ming stepped forward smartly. I didn't see how his hand moved, so he took Liu's hand down: "This lady, my little lady is afraid of life, you can tell me if there is anything." ”

"Are you ......" Liu was busy dealing with the threat in his stomach before, and he didn't pay much attention to Du Baozhu, and he didn't know Lu Ming.

At this time, I saw that Lu Ming looked delicate and childish, and the look in the seductive fox's eyes changed, and it took a while before he showed a clear smile: "What is this brother called?" ”

Lu Ming only cared about protecting Du Baozhu, and didn't pay attention to the change in Liu's expression. As soon as he was asked by Liu, he replied honestly: "Call me Luming." ”

"Oh...... The deer chirped. Liu Shi blinked, turned his head and leaned towards Du Baozhu again, and carried two packs of dim sum in his hand: "This is the dim sum I just bought, I picked all the ones you like to eat, try it." ”

Liu has read books, and is not as mercenary as ordinary women. She obviously has other plans, but she doesn't forget the number of gifts she should have, the two packs of dim sum are from the famous shops in the West Market, and they cost a lot of silver.

Du Baozhu was not willing to deal with her, and he had to show a polite smile at her: "Mrs. Liu is polite, I don't like sweets, you should keep these snacks for yourself." ”
