Chapter 107: Showing Off Your Wealth

The shopkeeper carefully picked it up, and Zhao Heng took it out, a golden pot like a work of art.

"Wait."

Song Li's voice sounded again.

"Master, you command."

The shopkeeper no longer has the slightest displeasure, whoever gives the silver is God, and he can't wait to kneel and lick Song Li directly.

Zhao Heng threw a cloth bag full of things to the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper subconsciously untied the cloth bag, looked at the white flowers and particles inside, dipped a little with his fingers, stuffed it into his mouth and tasted it, his heart was extremely shocked, it turned out to be fine salt!

In these days, even if there is silver, you can't buy salt, and the real money on the black market is exchanged for coarse salt of very poor quality.

And the adult in front of him took out fine salt, and the whole body was snow-white and crystalline, without half a point of astringency, even if the emperor is today, he can't eat such a good quality of fine salt.

After weighing it, this bag of fine salt has five or six catties, and it carries five or six catties of fine salt with him, what is the concept.

In the 21st century, it is like a pedestrian on the road, in addition to a dozen real estate certificates hanging on his chest, he also wears dozens of pounds of gold jewelry.

Wang Xianzhi also swallowed his saliva, why he said that he was a glutton, because he had a very high standard for eating, and there must be salt in every meal.

He was willing to spend a lot of money to buy the pitiful amount of coarse salt from the salt dealers.

In Daming, ordinary people can't afford to eat salt at all, at most, when cooking meat, dip it in water with vinegar cloth to bring some taste.

According to the law of the Ming Dynasty, anyone who sells smuggled salt will be punished with a hundred rods, three years in prison, an official of the imperial court, and a third-degree crime will be added, and those who resist arrest will be beheaded.

It strengthened the hearts of Wang Xianzhi and the others, and dared to blatantly carry so much salt on their bodies, what is this Song Li's big greed?

"Two adults, why don't you try my best immortal tea?"

As soon as Song Li's words fell, Zhao Heng took out a set of tea sets again.

Each tea cup is transparent and crystal through, and you can even pass through the tea cup and clearly see the things behind it, which is definitely priceless glass.

What's even more exaggerated is that there is not only one glass teacup, but there are twelve of them, which is enough to buy the lives of two people!

Tea cups are like this, what kind of level of tea must be brewed in a while?

Hu Yan was aroused by curiosity, and when Enke was in the past, he had the honor to drink tea once at Lord Liu Guan's mansion.

Sweet and moist, the feeling of relishing in the mouth, now have an endless aftertaste, it is said that the tea is two hundred taels a catty, and it is not something that can be bought with silver.

The two adults are both six books, but as far as Lord Song did before, he directly threw Liu Guan off eighteen streets.

Song Li's details are not clear, but he understands Liu Guan's affairs.

During Liu Guan's reign for so many years, the silver under the greedy ink is absolutely astronomical, and it is said that there are big people behind him, but he still dare not be so public.

And why did Song Li dare to do this, one of them embezzled more silver than Liu Guan, as for the specific amount, it was just a number.

Second, the backer behind Song Li is no less energetic in the court than Lord Liu.

Song Li, as the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, has worked hard for the imperial court and made immortal contributions, could it be that His Majesty acquiesced in Lord Song's so?

Hu Yan guessed in his heart, if Song Li really won the favor of His Majesty and took this big boat, he was afraid that his career would not be able to rise smoothly!?

Zhao Heng took out a jade box, and the moment the jade box was opened, a strong tea fragrance was faintly echoing in the air.

Wang Xianzhi looked like he was enjoying it: "Lord Song, this is really good tea, and before it enters the water, the tea is fragrant." ”

"Lord Wang seems to be a knowledgeable person, Lord Song's tea, but it grows on the top of the cliff of that day, and it is used for more than ten hours of sunshine every day, and it is used for watering, which is all meltwater from the snow-capped mountains."

"Lingzhi snow lotus and other medicinal materials are collected and buried directly into the soil to fertilize the tea trees, and the girls who pick tea are all like fairies, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

"You must burn incense and bathe for 30 days before you can go into the mountain to pick tea, before that, you have to show the palace sand on your arm, so as not to pollute the aura of the best fairy tea, every time you pick a leaf, you have to play a song of zither, kowtow, and thank you for the gift of nature."

"Long-term use can achieve the miraculous effect of prolonging life."

Zhao Heng told the story.

He made up all the origins, and the tea was just given by Lord Lin's maid Peach.

Just one sentence to explain himself, first highlight the value of this tea, and it must make Wang Xianzhi and the others feel that they can't afford to drink it, and they can't afford to drink it at all.

The corners of the two of their mouths twitched when they heard nonsense, but they were just picking tea leaves, as for that, was that?

"Dare to ask how much this tea is worth a catty, where can I buy it?"

Hu Yan subconsciously said, for Song Li's great greed, it is very likely that the silver will not be able to enter his eyes, if he can start from his liking, it is not a good way.

Since Lord Song likes this superb fairy tea, he wants to buy it and give it to Lord Song as a gift, as long as Lord Song accepts it, then everything is easy to say.

"A pound?"

Zhao Heng showed an unbelievable look.

"What's wrong?"

Hu Yan asked with a frown.

In an instant, I was relieved, and it was estimated that the price of this tea was not cheap.

Lord Liu Guan's tea leaves are worth 200 taels and 1 catties, and Lord Song is burning incense and bathing, and playing the guzheng and kowtowing or something, and it can't be sold for 1,000 taels and 1 catties.

He hid it so deeply, it is estimated that this Zhao Heng still thinks that he is a good official who loves the people like a son and has clean sleeves, how can he take out this thousand taels.

really underestimated him, don't say a thousand taels, even if it is ten thousand taels, as long as it can please Lord Song, it will be worth it.

"If Master Hu likes it, this official has some more, you can take it."

Song Li pushed the jade box in front of Hu Yan.

"Lord Song misunderstood, I just want to prepare some for gifts, I can't afford more, and it's not a problem to have a pound or two."

Don't dare to be too public.

"Master Hu, do you know how much this superb immortal tea is worth?"

Zhao Heng asked with a slight squint.

"Geometry?"

Hu Yan asked.

"One hundred taels!"

Hearing this, he was still a little apprehensive nonsense, and he was immediately relieved: "Although it is expensive, but there is a reason why it is expensive, there is still some savings in the future, and it is not a problem to buy a catty." ”

"Lord Hu must have made a mistake, the price of this superb immortal tea is one hundred taels per piece, not one hundred taels and one catty."

The corners of Zhao Heng's mouth outlined a touch of arc, and he smiled heartily.

Hu Yan is almost suspicious of life, what kind of tea can be sold for a hundred taels a piece, even if it is a gold leaf, it can't be so expensive!

Wang Xianzhi was even more shocked, he felt that one hundred taels and one pound were expensive, one hundred and two pieces, can he live forever after drinking it?

Zhao Heng ignored the surprise of the two, but took out a small pinch of tea from the jade box and threw it into the glass teacup in front of the three of them.

Then he took out an aluminum kettle from the carriage and poured the hot water that was still steaming into the tea cup.

The roasted tea leaves, soaked in hot water, are like bamboo leaves, blooming in an instant, and the delicate and dripping color is pleasing to the eye through the tea cup.

The original faint aroma of tea, accompanied by the heat, rushed straight to the door.

Song Li picked up the teacup, took a sip, and forcibly endured the surprise in his heart and said: "The fragrance of tea is far and thick, refreshing and refreshing. ”

It was the first time he had drunk this so-called best fairy tea, and he had drunk a lot of tribute tea given by His Majesty, but in order to cover up the astringency, the tea leaves were always added with all kinds of condiments, so that the tea soup was also extremely turbid, and it was the first time that such a clear and pleasant tea was seen.

Hu Yan couldn't hold back the throbbing in his heart, and hurriedly picked up the teacup and took a sip gently, his eyes full of satisfaction.

The cup of tea in the hand is elegant and long, and the entrance and exit are full of tongue, and a faint fragrance swells up from the abdomen.

After tasting it carefully, there is still a faint medicinal fragrance, is it possible that the tea tree is really fertilized with Tianshan Snow Lotus and Millennium Ganoderma lucidum, so it causes the tea to have a bit of medicinal taste.

If this superb fairy tea really has the effect of prolonging life, one hundred taels and one piece, although it is outrageous, but the heart is also a little better, after all, no matter how much silver you have, you can't buy your life.

is also a thorough realization of the gap, this tea, he really can't afford to send it.

If it is one hundred taels and at least thousands of pieces per catty, it is hundreds of thousands of taels of silver.

And all the savings he has accumulated over the years are not so much, so it is impossible to go bankrupt and buy a gift of one or two.

What's more, there is as much as a pound in Lord Song's jade box, how can he see this, it seems that he can only think of another way.

After Wang Xianzhi tasted it, he was also full of praise.

Wang Dacheng, the chief bookkeeper who was serving on the side, looked at the tea in the cup of the three people, and the one hundred and twenty pieces of tea was called a halazi, and if he could drink a sip, it would be in vain.

can use his identity, which round to get him here, can only lick the soaked tea residue after a few people leave.

Song Li and Zhao Heng had a good conversation, but Wang Xianzhi and the two didn't even have a chance to interject, so they could only add hot water to the teacup over and over again.

Wang Dacheng who watched it was distressed, mother's, he couldn't soak it twice, and when it was his turn, what was the difference between it and the white water?

If you drink so much, you won't be afraid to get up at night.

"Master, your chicken tip fried elm money, in order to get together this one hundred and twenty hens of the right year, the villain really wasted a lot of effort, the mandarin fish has been steamed in the pot, and it will be presented immediately."

The shopkeeper brought up a plate of chicken tongue.

Song Li picked up chopsticks made of ivory, picked up a piece of chicken tongue, put it in his mouth, and chewed it carefully.

In an instant, his face suddenly sank, and he took the case: "Who let you fry it with ointment, the fishy smell of lard ruined the good chicken tip in this pot!" ”

"Adults spare their lives, small ones are really not clear, adults don't eat ointment, Wangjianglou's meals on weekdays are mainly cooked, and this ointment is still temporarily bought at a high price in the Fang market."

The shopkeeper's heart trembled, and he threw himself directly to the ground, knocking his head vigorously.

Wang Xianzhi is also at a loss, this damn shopkeeper won't ask clearly before cooking, is Lord Song an ordinary person, how can he use the ointment bought in the market to cook and fry.

"That's it, today's meal is really unappetizing."

Song Li got up, shook his sleeves and left, and Zhao Heng took back the teacup and the golden pot, and followed.

The shopkeeper raised his head and looked at Wang Xianzhi's murderous eyes, his heart was extremely bitter, even if he was the emperor today, he ate dishes fried with ointment.

"Don't open this Wangjiang Tower in the future, so as not to affect Lord Song's mood when he sees it."

Wang Xianzhi glanced at the shopkeeper, and was still thinking about setting up a set at the dinner table, but he missed such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

"Where's the silver ticket?"

Hu Yan snorted coldly.

"The silver ticket was given to the villain by the adult."

The shopkeeper's expression was like eating, it didn't matter if Wangjianglou was closed, but if the silver was taken away again, he would be completely cut off from his life.

Seeing that the shopkeeper did not obey, a few errand officers beside Hu Yan stepped forward to punch and kick, and the shopkeeper was covered in blood and screamed.

Hu Yan took the blood-stained silver ticket from the officer's hand and spat at the shopkeeper: "How far is it for this official, if I see you again, the consequences will not be like this!" ”

Wang Dacheng did not forget to take out the tea leaves stained with leftovers from the swill bucket.

In his words, after going back to wash it, dry it, and with big ingredients, you can drink it a few times, and then grind it into powder, and drink it to have the effect of beautifying your face.

Such a good thing, Wang Xianzhi has only soaked it more than 20 times, and it is simply a tyrannical thing.

on the carriage.

"Lord Hu, according to the official, ordinary things and silver, Lord Song will definitely not look down on it, or give up fifty percent of our business and give it to Lord Song, this business is a profitable business, and if it is well run, it will not be a problem to eat for a few lifetimes, if we can pull Lord Song into the gang, we will be equivalent to having a backer in the court, and then we will be able to leave the surname Chen and start a line by ourselves."

Wang Xianzhi recalled the taste of the best fairy tea before, and subconsciously spoke.

"Let's not mention this matter for the time being, our business is a headless business, and there will definitely be no problems, in my opinion, let's observe and observe."

Hu Yan shook his head.

"It's not that the official said you, if Lord Song returned to Yingtian, wouldn't all the ducks in his mouth have to fly away, and Lord Song's poor and luxurious life has to rely on how much silver to operate, are you still afraid that he will not agree to this?"

Wang Xianzhi glanced at nonsense angrily.

If it weren't for the nonsense that pulled the thread at the beginning, he had to get rid of it and do it alone, and cooperate with this kind of person who was afraid of wolves and tigers, what great benefit could he have?

"This matter still needs to be considered in the long run, and there is no need to mention it again."

Hu Yan still shook his head, there was always a bad premonition in his heart, if there was a slight problem in business, he would have to lose his head.

Can it be further small, if the life is gone, everything else is a floating cloud.

Several brocade guards stopped the carriage, and the leader shouted: "There are still remnants of the White Lotus Sect in the city who have not subdued the law, according to the intention of Lord Qincha, the two adults still go back to the mansion to stay, if there is nothing but the problem, the official can't afford it." ”
