As soon as Helian Ba ​​heard the milk tea, he understood that it should be made by mixing milk or goat milk from their grasslands with tea from the Central Plains.

He had also drank so-called tea before, and he heard that it was made from the best tea leaves in the Central Plains, but he only felt that the taste was bitter, astringent and bland, and he really didn't like it.

Helen Ba took another sip, and sighed that it was unexpected that the milk and tea would taste so good when mixed.

Onotu and Heliantuo also tasted the so-called milk tea, and it tasted really good, quite in line with the taste of their Dihu people.

Seeing the appearance of the three of them, Xiao Jie smiled and said: "Did the three of you not find that drinking milk tea after eating barbecue is any different from usual?"

After being reminded by Xiao Jie, Helian Ba ​​was the first to react. It seemed that after drinking milk tea tonight, his mouth did not feel greasy like before, but instead felt refreshed.

"Tomorrow, I will send a servant to Qi Wang's mansion to learn how to make this milk tea. King Qi must teach him, so that Xiao Wang can drink it every day after returning to Mobei."

Before Xiao Jie could respond, Da Yetu came over and interjected: "I'm afraid it's useless for the eldest prince to learn, I seem to taste a salty fragrance in this milk tea, presumably King Qi put some in it." salt, but when the eldest prince returns to Mobei, he has no salt to put."

After saying that, Ono suddenly looked at Xiao Jie playfully, with a smile that was not a smile.

Xiao Jie felt speechless in his heart, the three old sixths were always inseparable from each other.

Xiao Jie shook his head and said with a smile: "This milk tea is brewed with tea bricks, there is no need to add salt."

brick tea?

The three of Helen Ba were stunned for a moment, they knew about tea, they also knew about tea, what is this tea brick?

Xiao Jie didn't talk nonsense, he clapped his hands lightly, and soon a servant came up with a tray with three dark cubes on it.

Xiao Jie handed them a piece, and said with a smile, "This is a tea brick. A small amount of salt was put in when making it, so the brewed milk tea naturally has a salty taste."

"If the eldest prince wants to learn how to make milk tea, why send someone to Qi Wangfu to learn? I can tell the eldest prince how to make milk tea right now. You only need to boil a small pot of water, break off a small piece from the tea brick, and put it into boiling water , wait for the tea to boil for a while, then mix it with milk and boil it."

"It's really that simple?" Helian Ba ​​was a little surprised. He had seen people from the Central Plains making tea, which was called a moji, but he didn't expect that this milk tea was much simpler to make.

In fact, Xiao Jie didn't tell the truth completely. The milk tea drunk by the northern nomads actually needs to be boiled and then seasoned with salt, but Xiao Jie didn't need to say this to avoid trouble for himself.

Xiao Jie nodded lightly, and said with a smile: "It's that simple. I will give each of these three tea bricks to the three, and I will report to my father tomorrow, asking that all the tea in the border mutual market be replaced with this kind of tea." The tea bricks also contain a small amount of salt, as I said, I can’t help you with the iron ones, so I can only help you here with the salt?”

Helian Ba ​​and Ono looked at each other, it seemed that this was the best result.

"Then Xiao Wang thanked King Qi on behalf of Father Khan and our thousands of Dihu people." Helianba stood up, pressed his right hand on his chest, bent down and bowed deeply to Xiao Jie, this was already theirs The highest etiquette in the grassland.

But what Helianba thought in his heart was, on the day when our Di Hu enters Luoyang, I will definitely beg Father Khan to spare your life.

Xiao Jie also sneered in his heart. In fact, there is no shortage of saltwater lakes or iron mines in Mobei. Sooner or later, the Dihu people will be able to make their own salt and iron.What I am doing now is to create a new daily necessities for the Dihu people on the grassland. Once the Dihu people can no longer live without tea, then Daning can exchange the wealth of the Dihu people with tea. .

More importantly, there is no way to grow tea in the bitter cold area of ​​Mobei, and the Dihu people can only exchange their cattle, sheep and horses for tea.

Obviously both sides have their own ghosts, but the atmosphere is becoming more and more lively, eating meat and drinking in big bowls, how happy it is.

However, Heliantuo suddenly felt some discomfort in his stomach and stomach, and was a little embarrassed to express to Xiao Jie that he wanted to show respect. Xiao Jie called a servant and ordered him to take Heliantuo to the toilet.

Helen Ba frowned slightly, with a disgusted expression on his face, as if he felt that his younger brother's rudeness was a little embarrassing.

After Helian Tuo left, Xiao Jie continued to tell Helian Ba ​​and Oh Ye Tu what to eat and drink, you're welcome.

Helian Tuo came out of the hut in a comfortable suit, only to find that the servant who brought him had disappeared. The Qi Palace is not too small, and Helian Tuo didn't dare to run around, lest he go somewhere he shouldn't go and cause trouble. Necessary misunderstanding.

He saw a person in the pavilion not far away who seemed to be looking at him, thinking that he must also be from Prince Qi's mansion, so he walked over to ask the other person for directions.

But as Heliantuo got closer and closer, he also gradually saw the appearance of the other party, and was stunned at the same place for a while. The appearance of the other party was quite similar to his own, and he felt like a brother of the same mother.

The other party obviously saw him clearly, but there was no surprise on his face, but more of an uncontrollable excitement, and his eye sockets turned red.

Afterwards, the other party seemed to take a deep breath, and slowly spit out two words:

"younger brother!"

Heliantuo's body shook, and he stayed on the spot for an instant...

……

Helian Ba ​​was already full of food and wine, but he still didn't see Helian Tuo coming back, and he couldn't help feeling a little annoyed in his heart.

Xiao Jie also noticed that Helian Ba's expression was abnormal, he just smiled and said that maybe the little prince was a little bit uncomfortable, and he asked someone to take a look.

While speaking, Helian Tuo came back by himself, and apologized to the three of them, but he seemed to be in a daze, and he was a little absent-minded.

Xiao Jie didn't need to guess to know that Heliantuo should have met his elder brother Ye Qiu, but he didn't know what the two brothers talked about.

In order to create a chance for their brothers to recognize each other, I did not hesitate to secretly smear laxatives on Heliantuo's milk tea bowl, which can be described as well-intentioned.

Helian Ba ​​was very annoyed in his heart, but after all, he was in Xiao Jie's residence, so he couldn't say anything, he just gave Helian Tuo a hard look, but Helian Tuo didn't realize it.

Helian Ba ​​and Xiao Jie exchanged a few more words of greeting, seeing that it was getting late, they got up and said goodbye.

As soon as Xiao Jie sent the three of them away, he originally wanted to ask Ye Qiu to come over and ask about the situation, but considering that their brothers had just met, he also needed some time to calm down, so he decided to ask tomorrow.

At this time, the butler, Lao Hu, brought over a gift list, which was about the gifts that Helian Ba ​​sent to the door today. He had just counted them, and he could only say that the numbers made him speechless. He wondered how happy King Qi would be.

Xiao Jie took the gift list, but put it in his sleeve without even looking at it, and then ordered Lao Hu to find some people to send all the things Helian Ba ​​sent to the palace tomorrow, without keeping any of them.

Lao Hu was stunned for a moment, the king of Qi didn't even look at what the Hu people sent, and sent them all to the palace. He can guarantee that even though Xiao Jiegui is the king of Qi, he has never seen so much gold and silver in his life. jewelry.

Xiao Jie smiled lightly, no matter how much these things are worth, he can't accept them. As Su Yao said, it's inappropriate for a prince to have close contacts with other races, and accepting such expensive gifts will easily cause big trouble for himself.

Even the royal father may have doubts about him, and he doesn't know if he proposed to sell the tea bricks with salt to Dihu for the sake of Daning, or for the sake of the gold, silver and jewelry that Dihu sent .
