Daqin: I was overheard by Zulong

Chapter 287 Cigarettes and Betel Nuts

When the family was thinking about how to deal with Zhao Yi, Ying Zheng led Yang Duanhe and Qiang Li to the Prince's Mansion.

"Father and the two adults, why are you here?" Zhao Yi was a little confused, so he asked the three people who were about to take their seats while serving tea to the beautiful servant girl.

"It's nothing serious, but the "Three Character Classic of the Great Qin Dynasty" published by you, Prince, is now very popular in all parts of the Great Qin Dynasty. We are here to congratulate you!" Qiang Li said something that Zhao Yi would never believe no matter what. reason.

Yang Duanhe also said: "Yes, our family regards you as the prince of Wenqu, so I came here to congratulate the prince specially, and take advantage of your good luck."

Zhao Yi laughed, and could only show an awkward yet polite smile in front of Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng obviously knew how to enliven the atmosphere better, took a sip of the tea brought by the beautiful maid, and praised repeatedly: "Well, good, not bad, Qiang Li, Yang Duanhe, try it, this is the best Dragon Well before Yu, really Unexpectedly, the prince actually has such good tea!"

"Prince, it turns out you haven't finished drinking it yet. I've been reviewing the memorials every night recently and relying on it to relieve my fatigue. As a result, the little Yuqian Longjing is not enough for me to drink."

Hearing this, Zhao Yi pursed his lips for a while, and didn't answer. He used the appearance of drinking tea to cover up, and at the same time complained in his heart.

[Damn it, go to bed when you're sleepy, what do you drink Longjing before Yu?waste! 】

[Labor and management don’t have much money, but you still want to play with labor and management, go ahead and dream! 】

[But having said that, if you're really sleepy, it's useless to drink anything, you should be sleepy or sleepy. 】

[If I really want to say that the only thing that can relieve sleepiness is cigarettes, preferably paired with a betel nut, then it is a beauty. If you take two puffs of sleepiness, you won’t be sleepy anymore. You will be as happy as a god! 】

Zhao Yi thought so, and aftertaste the taste of tobacco and betel nut, he couldn't help himself to laugh, which attracted Yang Duanhe and Qiang Li's surprised eyes.

Zhao Yi finally noticed it, and quickly covered it up, "Father, if you are really tired, you should rest more, don't stay up late to review the memorial, your dragon body is important!"

Hearing Zhao Yi's insincere words, Ying Zheng didn't take it seriously at all, and became interested in the 'tobacco' and 'betel nut' mentioned in Zhao Yi's heart.

What is tobacco?What is betel nut?Are these two things another new gadget invented by the prince?
With these two things, can you get rid of fatigue?Still happy like a fairy?real or fake?Ying Zheng was inexplicably moved.

And just when Ying Zheng was muttering in his heart, thinking about how to find out about tobacco and betel nuts from Zhao Yi, Zhao Yi's voice came again.

[By the way, tobacco and betel nuts should be on the market soon, right?This is a good thing, and it is a holy product for relieving fatigue! 】

[Oh, yes, I forgot, the cigarette factory and betel nut factory I opened in Yelang seem to have sent me finished products. 】

[Yes, as long as I try the effect, I can make money for the prince on the market! 】

Cigarette Factory?Betel nut factory?The prince is actually with Yelang and has already started to build so many industries that he doesn't know about?

Ying Zheng was a little dazed. What Zhao Yi mentioned in his heart was all that Heibingtai hadn't given him feedback.

So Yingzheng changed his mind, and asked Zhao Yi with a smile, "Prince, how did I hear that you have other new things besides tea, which can quickly relieve fatigue, and it is said that they came from Yelang?"

"Uh..." Ying Zheng stunned Zhao Yiwen directly, and Qiang Li and Yang Duanhe, who also heard about it for the first time, were also interested and came forward one after another.

"What, Your Majesty, the prince has something new coming out? What is it? Is there anything in this world that can relieve fatigue better than tea?"

"Your Highness, please tell us. Don't hide it. Maybe we still have a chance to cooperate!"

Qiang Li and Yang Duanhe knew very well now that as long as it came out of the prince's mansion, it was a good thing, and it could make a lot of money when it went public, so they just learned from Ying Zheng that the prince had something new, and the two of them naturally changed. Get extra attention.

Seeing Zhao Yi humming and pretending that he wanted to evade, Ying Zheng simply didn't keep it secret, and went straight to the point, "Yes, I heard that these two things are called cigarettes and betel nuts!"

"Prince, I didn't say poke it, it should be these two things, and they are now in your prince's mansion, right!"

Ying Zheng was purely defrauding Zhao Yi. In fact, he had just learned about these two things from Zhao Yi's heart, but he said that on purpose to mislead Zhao Yi and let Zhao Yi make up his own mind, and he would not think of anything else.

really……

[Nimma's black ice warrior can do it. I never expected that labor-management secrecy is done so well, but I still can't hide it! 】

【However, I didn't think I could keep it a secret for long. After all, these two things are intended to be sold as commodities. 】

[Things are rare and expensive. Wouldn’t it be a pity not to turn betel nuts and cigarettes into high-end consumer products in Daqin at this time, and wait for aristocratic families or merchants to discover them and waste them to waste! 】

[Labor and capital are pointing at these two things, making a lot of money from the old thing and the two sand sculptures in front of me! 】

What the hell?Hearing that Zhao Yi had ill intentions towards him, Ying Zheng became more cautious, but on the surface he remained calm, waiting for Zhao Yi's next performance.

Zhao Yi finished muttering in his heart, and quickly put on a smiling face, "Oh, my father didn't tell me, my son almost forgot."

"It's all the errands assigned by my busy father recently. I'm so busy that I forgot about it. My son has indeed invented two new gadgets that can relieve fatigue. They are the cigarettes and betel nuts mentioned by my father."

"It's just right, it's better to hit the sun than to choose the day. Today, the father and the two generals are here, so let's help the ministers to taste and taste."

After all, Zhao Yi summoned Dongfang Bubai and asked him to bring cigarettes and betel nuts to him.

Soon, Dongfang Bubai sent the cigarettes and betel nuts to several people on special trays, and Zhao Yi immediately got up and introduced them to Ying Zheng and others.

"Father, two generals, please look, these are the cigarettes and betel nuts I just mentioned."

Ying Zheng, Qiang Yu and Yang Duanhe immediately stood up and gathered together, looking at the cigarettes and betel nut in the tray. When they saw the real objects clearly, they couldn't help but look confused.

"This long strip wrapped in white paper is a betel nut? This black shell is a cigarette? How can this relieve fatigue?"

"It looks a bit like tea, but can this thing be made into tea?"

"Well, it smells a little weird, and it's kind of sweet. Can eating this stuff relieve fatigue?"

Hearing the words of Ying Zheng and others, Zhao Yi was stunned, "Father, please listen to my son's explanation, this white one is for cigarettes, and the other one is for betel nuts. Cigarettes are not for eating, betel nuts are for eating." , Cigarettes are used to relieve fatigue."
