Daqin: I was overheard by Zulong

Chapter 289 Nobody Thinks It's Expensive
While talking big, Qiang Li chewed hard, and soon he was speechless.

A strong, unique pungent taste spread crazily in his mouth, and his eyes suddenly dilated, and it took him a long time to calm down.

"My dear mother, this thing is really strong, cool, exciting!"

"But it's really tasty. It's very refreshing. I'm convinced. Your Highness, this betel nut is really good!"

"Well, it's really good. It's really more refreshing than cigarettes. Prince, how did you think of it, and where did you find such a good thing? It's really good to use this thing to refresh yourself!"

When Ying Zheng heard that Qiang Li and Yang Duanhe were full of praise, he couldn't help it anymore, and immediately stepped forward and grabbed a betel nut and threw it into his mouth.

Um?As he chewed hard, the unique taste of betel nuts exploded in Yingzheng's mouth. The stimulation really made Yingzheng feel unspeakable throbbing, but I have to say, chewing betel nuts is really exciting!

Before Ying Zheng arrived at the Prince's Mansion today, he felt dizzy because he didn't sleep well last night.

As a result, the dizziness disappeared after smoking a cigarette just now, and now after chewing another betel nut, Ying Zheng instantly felt as if he had returned to his youth, full of energy.

Looking at Ying Zheng and others, who all looked like they had been injected with chicken blood, Zhao Yi shook his head and calmly spit out the betel nut in his mouth.

[It's only the ignorant people who treat cigarettes and betel nuts as treasures, and don't even know the harm of these things. 】

[Whether it’s betel nut or cigarettes, if you smoke too much or eat too much, it’s actually not good for your body. 】

[This thing is a consumable item, and of course it is also a luxury product. It consumes the body, but the luxury is money! 】

[I now price cigarettes at [-] yuan a stick, I believe it should not be expensive, and betel nuts are also priced at [-] yuan, no one thinks it is expensive! 】

Zhao Yi muttered in his heart, and when it fell into Ying Zheng's mind, Ying Zheng's eyes suddenly widened.

What the hell?Are betel nuts and cigarettes bad things?Are you kidding, this Nizi sells such an expensive thing, is it a good thing? It seems that his heart is also tricky!
It seems that he didn't want to give me cigarettes and betel nuts for free, so he deliberately thought so!

No, I have to use some tricks to get this rebellious son to donate a lot of cigarettes and betel nuts, otherwise, hum...

Soon, the betel nut was finished chewing. After tasting betel nut and cigarettes for the first time, how could guys like Qiang Yu and Yang Duan, who had no self-discipline, just let it go.

"Your Highness, do you still have some betel nuts? Bring out some more. This is just enough!"

"Yeah, we come here as guests anyway, you just give this, it's really not fun, don't be so stingy!"

Qiang Lu and Yang Duanhe were already hungry and thirsty. Although Ying Zheng didn't speak, he was already thinking about how to get more cigarettes and betel nuts from Zhao Yi.

With his hands behind his back, Zhao Yi shook his head and said, "Father, the two generals, these cigarettes and betel nuts are actually not good things. I advise you to stop in moderation and just taste it."

"What does the prince mean by this?" Qiang Yan looked anxiously, "Is it a good thing, I still can't tell it?"

"Yes." Yang Duanhe also shouted, "Are you feeling distressed? What is the price of this thing? I can't buy it. Come on, is this enough?"

As Yang Duanhe said, he patted the gold ingot directly in front of Zhao Yi's eyes, and Zhao Yi's eyes straightened for a while.

He made cigarettes and betel nuts for sale, and now he happened to use Qiang Lian and Yang Duanhe to open up the market.

The energy of these two people in Xianyang City is extraordinary, and these two guys are big mouths. As long as they shout outside, it won't take half a day for the entire Xianyang City to know about cigarettes and betel nut.

"Hey, I've already reminded you, everyone, I'll give you a friendly price!" Zhao Yi already had a new strategy in mind, "Cigarettes originally cost one hundred yuan, so I'll give you fifty yuan a cigarette." , the price of betel nuts, how much do you want?"

"The prince is very interesting. You can figure out how much this gold is worth." Qiang Li also took out a piece of gold. Zhao Yi winked at Dongfang Bubai who was beside him, and Dongfang Bubai immediately arranged for the accountant to come forward.

Not long after, cigarettes and betel nuts were placed in front of Qiang Lian and Yang Duanhe. Looking at the piles of cigarettes and betel nuts, Qiang Lian, Yang Duanhe went crazy, and immediately began to swallow clouds.

Ying Zheng was still putting on a show at this time, but Qiang Yu saw him at the side and couldn't help but remind him: "Your Majesty, you are still waiting for the prince to send you off, so you'd better not make such an idea."

"Yes!" Yang Duanhe also advised Ying Zheng, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has made it clear now that he wants to use us to promote him. Today, it is also for your sake that he gives us this price. I am afraid that after a few days, we will It’s not even at this price!”

[Hehe, Qiang Li and Yang Duanhe are not stupid, it seems that they still have a few hearts. 】

[Although the guess is not completely correct, but it is almost inseparable. The old man is still pretending to be reserved, so let him pretend!If you want to take the white wolf from Lao Tzu empty-handed, let him daydream! 】

As soon as he heard what Zhao Yi said in his heart, Ying Zheng suddenly lost his composure and quickly took off a golden ring from his hand, "Prince, give me as many cigarettes and betel nuts as you want, I'm not short of money!"

That night, the third watch drum was already beating in the palace, and Ying Zheng was still in the imperial study, working hard and reviewing the memorials.

I saw him holding a pipe in one hand and a betel nut in the other, staring at the memorial in front of him. Only when he wanted to review the content from time to time, he put the pipe in his mouth and wrote a few times with a pen.

Yingzheng's spirit tonight was much better than before, as if he didn't know how sleepy he was at all, while the servants serving in the imperial study were afraid to get close to each other.

It was nothing else but the smoke that Ying Zheng breathed out. It was too choking, and it was so late. Ying Zheng was getting more and more energetic, but the servants were getting more and more sleepy.

It stands to reason that at this time on weekdays, Ying Zheng has already gone to bed, but today he behaved uncharacteristically, causing these servants to complain endlessly, and finally someone couldn't stand it any longer and hurried to invite Mrs. Gongsun to come.

Mrs. Gongsun heard that Yingzheng was in the middle of the night and was still reviewing the memorial in the imperial study. She was worried about Yingzheng's health, so she hurried over.

Looking at the smoky, brightly lit hall and Ying Zheng's writing at his desk, Mrs. Gongsun asked the servant outside with a look of surprise, "Is Your Majesty not sleepy at all? Did something special happen today?"

The servants quickly shook their heads, "Madam, no, I don't know what happened to Your Majesty, Madam, you don't know, His Majesty didn't sleep well last night, I thought I would go to bed early today, but I didn't expect..."
