Chapter 144: Sincerity
"It's here!" Ren Baqian stopped the car, and after getting out of the car, he opened the door for the empress, looking quite gentlemanly to others.
The snow fell on the heads of the two, and the empress looked up at the sky with some joy, and under the illumination of the lights, pieces of snowflakes flew down like elves in the night, and landed on their heads.
It's just that it fell on the empress's hair and disappeared in an instant.
"Let's go inside. Ren Baqian tightened the coat on the empress again.
The location of the two is just a relatively large supermarket.
Ren Baqian felt that the empress might be more interested here. This is the best place to observe the daily life of ordinary people in China.
"Lots of people. The empress looked at the door of the supermarket and said, you can't see such a dense flow of people in Da Yao's store, and of course there is no such a big store.
Ren Baqian walked in side by side with the empress, it is not suitable to walk half a foot behind, and Ren Baqian should also pay attention to helping the empress block the people around her.
Whether it's because he's afraid that the empress will get angry, or because the empress is now nominally his future wife, or because she has the psychology of protecting food, his movements are very natural, and there is nothing strange in the eyes of outsiders.
Ren Baqian didn't know what he was feeling in his heart now, he just wanted to do it.
Maybe there are more of the former, but the latter may not be absent.
However, Ren Baqian quickly noticed that although there were people coming and going, everyone subconsciously changed their movements when they approached the empress's body, and no one approached the empress within half a meter.
The two of them walked forward, and the most eye-catching thing was that the empress's posture was so beautiful, especially with her temperament, the combination of nobility and indifference was not at all like the person who should be in this place. Even if it feels a little cold, it attracts the attention of pedestrians.
The two entered the supermarket, and Ren Baqian pushed a car and walked side by side with the empress.
The empress's eyes were all on the dazzling array of goods on both sides, and there were so many commodities around her that she was dazzled.
"It's potato chips, it's a snack, it's not very healthy. Whenever Ren Baqian noticed that the empress's gaze lingered on an object, he would explain in a whisper, and at the same time put the item in the basket.
"It's a biscuit, it's an occasional food to satisfy your hunger, and the taste depends on your preference. ”
"This is a can, and the inside is boiled fruit and then drained to the air, which can be stored for a long time. ”
"It's salt. ”
When Ren Baqian talked about salt, the empress picked up the bag of salt, observed it carefully and said, "It's very white, almost the same as what is used in the palace." How much can you buy for a tael of silver?"
Ren Baqian calculated, one tael of silver is 500 grams, that is, about 2,000 yuan. "I can buy 1,000 bags. ”
The empress looked at Ren Baqian and said, "In Da Yao, one tael of silver can only buy so much. ”
Ren Baqian nodded, he understood this matter. In Dayao, a tael of silver can buy a pound of salt, and it is quite coarse, and the color is not good.
This kind of relatively fine salt can only be bought so much for one or two pieces of silver.
The difference between the two worlds is 1,000 times.
"I want this, if there is a war with Great Xia, I'm afraid it will be difficult to buy it from Izumo and Chen. The empress turned her head to look at Ren Baqian, her eyes were full of energy, waiting for his reply, and there was an unprecedented thought in her words.
I want this, and I want this, although there is only one word difference, but it gives people a lot of different feelings.
Ren Baqian hesitated: "I know that salt may come out of a place, in Jiuding Mountain, southwest of Lancheng, I heard that there is poisonous black pool water there, which may filter out well salt." It's just that I wasn't very sure about this in my heart, so I didn't tell you. I thought I would talk about it after the sweet potatoes were ripe. ”
"If you can do what you say, you will be credited. After I go back, I'll finish the iron ore thing, so let's do this first. If you can produce salt, you can have fewer scruples in the future, and you don't have to be distracted by the war with Great Xia.
After all, if the people don't have salt to eat, they can't live. The empress looked at Ren Baqian and said, also explaining a lot unprecedentedly.
"I know, I'll do my best to do these things. Ren Baqian nodded and said.
The Empress looked carefully into his eyes before nodding.
The two continued to move forward, although the two of them didn't care, but in fact, the eyes of many people nearby were on the two of them.
Or rather, on the empress.
"It's a toothbrush, a toothpaste, for brushing your teeth, you don't need to use willow branches.
It's shower gel, shampoo ......"
Ren Baqian pushed and put things in the car, which were all things for the empress.
At this time, he really had the feeling that he was visiting the supermarket together as a couple, buying items.
If it really happens often, that's not bad.
Whether it is the daily necessities here or the food before, there are many brands of each of them, and the richness of the variety makes the empress quite amazed.
The types of materials in Dayao are so small that they can't be compared at all.
In the end, the two of them selected some fruits and vegetables that the empress was interested in, and then checked out and left.
And several men who had been following the footsteps of the two of them and watching the two of them from a distance were a little stunned, and their hearts were full of all kinds of envy, jealousy, and hatred for Ren Baqian.
After going around the supermarket, the empress has a clearer understanding of the abundance and variety of materials on the earth. At the same time, he also observed the appearance of ordinary people in the supermarket, and it is indeed as Ren Baqian said, life is very rich.
She could feel the disparity, so it also made her feel a little envious in her heart, no matter which emperor wanted his country to become like this.
The two sat back in the car, and Ren Baqian smiled and said: "It seems that not only I think you are the elf of the world, but there are also many people who are looking at us, in fact, looking at you, I don't know if I should gouge out their eyes." ”
It's half a joke, and half true.
The empress tilted her head to look at him: "Do you really think so?"
Ren Baqian nodded.
"Then don't lie to me from now on. After speaking, the empress turned her face out of the window.
This is not the first time she has said this, she does not like to be deceived, and is even a little worried about being deceived. Saying such things always makes people feel that she is not what she looks like on the outside, and her heart is actually very delicate.
Although she gives people the impression that she is more domineering, domineering, majestic, and cold.
Ren Baqian felt that there was something in her words this time, and he was silent for a moment, not knowing if this was his own delusion.
In my heart, I remembered the monk's words, "The benefit of the tongue is just a small way, and only sincerity can be exchanged for sincerity." ”
His heart trembled slightly, but he said: "Your Majesty, there is a bird in this world that never lands since it was born, and has been flying in the air until it dies.
So I have followed His Majesty since I saw Him, and I will not stop until I die, just as a bird seeks the sky. And I am different from it, even if I die, even if I am in the netherworld, I will look up below and look at Your Majesty. ”
"No one has ever said anything like this to me, and I would believe it. The empress was silent for a moment and sighed slightly.
She was a little confused in her heart at this time, and she wanted to slap this guy who disturbed her mood to death with one palm, which seemed to be a very simple thing, but she couldn't lift her palm. This is not the first time, and it was the same last time, but both times I couldn't lift my palm.
She didn't know why she was saying such weak words, she just felt her heart tremble.
Ren Baqian also looked sideways and turned his head to look at the empress outside, the empress at this time gave Ren Baqian the feeling of a fairy falling into the dust, which made him have an inexplicable impulse in his heart.
It was more intense than it was in that room in the afternoon.
"This is arranged by God, and God is the greatest. Ren Baqian finally said a word.
is saying it to the empress, and it is also saying it to herself.
He finally made up his mind, no matter what, for the sake of the empress at this time, for her completely different demeanor at this time, he should not be like before.
