570 Old Peter's Troubles

There is no difference between Porto and Watt City, it is also a port payment, and a city entry fee.

It's just that the tax collected is a little less than in Watt City.

More than 200 people ate, drank, and slept in Lazar, and asked for a lot of things.

Tang Ping and the others bought some of the most urgently needed things on the first day and rushed back, and then set off from the island early the next morning to Porto to continue shopping.

The island was named Weitean Houpu by Tang Ping, and told the inhabitants that it meant waiting and hope.

He didn't believe it, he was able to mix well in Datang, even if there was no system here, but there was Lao Cui and they still had a cruise ship, and dozens of people followed him.

Is it possible to get around here?

After running three times in a row, they finally bought the things they needed on the island, but their money bags were also bottomed out.

Today is the last day to come over, and I have bought some things that may be needed but are not so urgently needed.

In Tang Ping's words, it is to be prepared for emergencies.

Just as he, Alaric and the others were about to leave the city, they suddenly heard a familiar voice.

"Steward White, you can't trust that scumbag of Korda, please trust me, there is absolutely nothing wrong with our goods!"

"Old Peter?"

Tang Ping and Alaric glanced at each other, they didn't expect to meet this old merchant here.

However, he was clearly in trouble, chasing a carriage and shouting, but he could not catch up, and could only hold his knees and pant loudly on the side of the road.

"Old Peter, what's wrong with you?" Tang Ping and Alaric asked.

"Don!" Old Peter was obviously surprised to see Tang Ping, and looked left and right before saying, "Are you all right?" Why are you here? ”

"You know something happened to us?" Tang Ping frowned and asked.

"Hey, there's nothing in the whole of Watt City that I don't know!" Old Peter said, "The day after you invited me to dinner, I didn't see you again at the docks, and after another day a wanted notice was put up at the gates and docks that you had joined the rebellion and had begun to flee, and your portraits were hung at the gates and docks!" ”

Tang Ping and Alaric both frowned, if they were wanted, then Watt City would not be able to go back, and they would be in danger here in the future.

As if seeing through the thoughts of the two, Old Peter comforted the two and said, "Don't worry, even if I know you, I didn't see that the portrait was you, so don't worry too much." ”

"Old Peter, you're not going to sell us, are you?" Tang Ping stared at him and asked.

"I don't dare!" Old Peter shook his head: "I have gossip, Lord William didn't get it from you, right?" I heard that dozens of people died at your hands! ”

"How much is the city lord's wanted warrant? My old Peter never did a loss-making business, and I want to sell you to the lord of the city, and the profit is too little. Now that you're in Porto, we can work together. ”

Old Peter was still quite honest, and clearly told Tang Ping that he made too little money by betraying them, and it was not as cost-effective as cooperating with Tang Ping.

Tang Ping smiled and said: "I like smart people like you, and I'll give you a copy of the wine recipe in a while!" ”

Originally, he planned to keep it a secret, but since Lord William was not a good person, Tang Ping would certainly not let him have a good time.

The best way to make a secret recipe lose its importance is to make it no longer a secret. Tang Ping plans to publicize the recipe of this wine everywhere at that time, which can be regarded as a contribution to the development of European wine culture.

In this way, ordinary people can make wine at home, and even if William can control the people of Watt City, can he still control other cities? ?

It must be to make him steal chickens and rice.

Hearing that Tang Ping was going to share the recipe of the wine with himself, Old Peter seemed a little indifferent, and it was estimated that he also guessed the reason why Tang Ping was so generous, so he just nodded and said: "That relationship is good, in the future, I can also let the servants make wine at home without going out to spend money." ”

"By the way, why were you so embarrassed??" Tang Ping pointed in the direction where the carriage left: "Who are you chasing?" ”

"Hey, don't mention it!" Speaking of what had just happened, old Peter was furious.

He lifted the stake on the side of the street with his foot and said, "I have come to Porto this time, because the city here is going to attend the queen's birthday party, and is going to give the queen a gift." Originally, I had already agreed with the city supervisor in charge of the purchase that I would make a cashmere shawl and give it to the city lord as a gift. ”

"But I didn't expect that Korda's despicable fellow to find a fine silk handkerchief from somewhere and cut off my beard."

Speaking of this, he was slightly stunned, looked at Tang Ping and said, "Tang, you are from the East, right?" I heard that the silk handkerchief also came from the East! Can you find the same? ”

"This transaction is very important to me, as long as the gift of the city lord is recognized in the past, then my business to and from Porto will be much smoother in the future!"

"Silk?? Handkerchief? From the East? After Tang Ping finished speaking, he looked at Lao Cui.

Lao Cui asked suspiciously, "Childe, what are you doing?" ”

"You usually carry the one in your arms, the handkerchief that your daughter-in-law gave you, and take it out to show him."

Lao Cui didn't know what Tang Ping meant, but he still took out a silk handkerchief from his arms, but he didn't expect that old Peter would suddenly come up like a decade younger.

Grabbing the corner of the handkerchief excitedly with both hands, he said, "That's it, it's this silk!" ”

Lao Cui grabbed the other two corners by himself, but he didn't dare to use force, for fear that his daughter-in-law would not let him go after he went home.

said pitifully to Tang Ping: "Childe, this is what I usually blow my nose from, this ...... It's not appropriate, right? ”

"Old Peter, Old Peter!!" It was easy for Tang Ping to let old Peter go.

And old Peter turned around and grabbed Tang Ping's sleeve again: "Tang, I know that you are not simple, you must be from the Silk Country, right?" ”

"Silk Country?" Tang Ping was a little puzzled.

He is from the Tang Dynasty, and he usually wears silk and satin sent from the palace at home.

So he had no idea what silk meant to the nobility here in Europe in this era.

Suffice it to say, because he was going to war on an expedition to the Arab Empire, he wore clothes that were convenient for combat.

If he entered William's castle wearing the silk embroidery clothes he usually wore in the Tang Dynasty, he would be plucked by William as soon as possible.

It's not that William has any thoughts about his body, but because that kind of silk embroidered clothing can become a national treasure!
