Chapter 282 Good Smoke
As soon as this remark came out, the old soldier was a little bit uneasy. He originally wanted to hide the cigarettes that Wang Ji gave him, but now these cigarettes are in short supply in Shanzhou City, and fifty sticks of Xining incense are sold. It can be exchanged for more than 50 Wen, not to mention that the old soldier himself is very addicted to cigarettes. He originally wanted to keep these cigarettes for himself, but he didn't expect that when Wang Ji asked them to give them cigarettes just now, his companions saw them all. Now, the old soldier rolled his eyes and said directly: "What nonsense are you talking about? Mr. Wang treats us deliciously and deliciously, why do we have anything to complain about? He is a high-ranking official, so it would be good for us to eat Now, where will you give us cigarettes? What do you think we are?"

But Brother Chen refused: "Who doesn't know that Mr. Wang is the most generous, and I have come to Mr. Wang's village with other escort troops a few times. When did the steward Wang not give us cigarettes? You just put it on." Take out the cigarettes. If you don’t take them out, I will tell other brothers when I go back. I heard that you still have a lot of cigarettes on credit at other people’s places. how much is left?"

Hearing this, the old sergeant was not surprised. Although the tobacco was distributed to the Tang army by Hou Junji for less than a month, it has already become widely popular among the Tang army.At first, everyone didn't think there was anything good about smoking this tobacco, but after training, it was interesting to light it up and put it in your mouth to sneak attack, so everyone developed this habit, anyway, it doesn't take much time to smoke a cigarette , It’s also fun to be idle in your spare time during training. It’s fun to have something in your mouth, but it doesn’t matter if you smoke once or twice. In less than half a month, more than half of the Tang army in Longxi has become addicted to cigarettes, and the first to promote cigarettes as an alternative Shanzhou is particularly good for alcohol.

The sergeants in Shanzhou quickly became addicted to smoking and found that this thing relieved fatigue and refreshed their minds. After smoking, people's minds were very clear and their bodies were comfortable. However, if they did not smoke for a long time, their mouths would be tasteless. I couldn't help but want to light one, and even many veterans who left emergency services in the war, after developing the habit of smoking, found that this thing actually has an analgesic effect, and they liked it even more.

With the spread of cigarettes in the army, and Wangjia Manor began to sell various grades of cigarettes represented by Xiningxiang in various pharmacies in Shanzhou, among the people in Shanzhou City, both the Hu people and the Han people also gradually started to smoke. trend.

After all, Wang Dong still didn't have the heart to advertise cigarettes on a large scale, but the pharmacy found that cigarettes were very easy to sell, so he spontaneously started to promote tobacco.Doctors at this time were unreliable enough. They researched and studied, but they did not know what to base their judgment on the curative effect of tobacco. They began to prescribe cigarettes to patients with various diseases, and finally whether the disease was cured or not. I don’t know, but old smokers have been cultivated. In addition, many people are curious about the taste of cigarettes. Those who have money and leisure buy them to smoke. There are also many hardworking people who work hard on weekdays. A way to relieve fatigue, spread word of mouth, and let his fellow workers buy cigarettes. For a while, the sales of Wang Dong's cigarettes of various brands soared sharply.

This old soldier was the first to come into contact with tobacco because he was the government army that managed the treasury, and he was also the oldest group of smoking guns in the Tang army. What's more, this old soldier was transferred to Longxi after committing a crime in the pass. , working hard all day long, already had the habit of drinking heavily, and after getting cigarettes, he couldn't put it down very quickly, and the one who smoked once and twice became one of the best smokers in Tang Jun.Hou Junji usually smoked the ten cigarettes that Hou Junji gave them for half a month in two days, and the rest of the time he had to go around looking for his companions to borrow cigarettes on credit.Although smoking is far cheaper than drinking, but it is so, he still caused a lot of famine. At this time, if Brother Chen said that he had received fifty cigarettes, the cigarettes in his hand would disappear in a blink of an eye. To return it to someone else.

Hearing the words, the old soldier dared not dare to be stubborn again, so he had to smile wryly and said, "When you said that, I remembered that Guanshi Wang really gave us a pack of Xining incense, which was hung under the big axle at the back of the car. Master Wang's food is good, I was so happy to eat that I actually forgot about it...you go and pick that pack of cigarettes, let's smoke it."

Brother Chen snorted coldly when he heard the words, and murmured: "If I didn't tell you, you would have hidden the smoke."

The old soldier smiled awkwardly when he heard the words, Chen Geer didn't go to get the cigarette, but just cocked his legs and smoked there by himself. The old soldier smelled the fragrant smell of the cigarette he exhaled, and couldn't help saying: "You and I go to smoke the cigarette." Take it down, we will share one."

Brother Chen sneered and said, "You old soldier is quite disrespectful, why should I serve you? When you want to smoke, put down the reins and go under the car to untie it."

The old soldier's face turned red, he coughed, and was too embarrassed to speak again.

The atmosphere between the two people in the car was awkward, Jia couldn't help scratching his head, then took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took out one and handed it to the old soldier, "Master Jun, smoke me this."

Then he flicked the cigarette pack again, handed the cigarette to Brother Chen and said, "Young military master, you have one too."

The old soldier was addicted to cigarettes at this time, and he was overjoyed when he heard the words. He didn't dare to let go of the rein while holding the cigarette, but suddenly felt that the cigarette in his hand didn't feel right. The old soldier was surprised and said: "Kunlun Mountain!"

Hearing that Xiaoge Chen, who was smoking with his eyes closed just now, couldn't help opening his eyes, and seeing that what Jia handed him was a pack of Kunlun Mountain wrapped in cardboard flower paper, he couldn't help but widen his eyes with surprise.

"This manager, you actually managed to get Kunlun Mountain?"

Jia was also taken aback when he saw the surprised expressions of the two. He didn't usually go out of the farm. Because of Wang Dong's care for the farm workers in the farm, the workers in the farm could buy cigarettes at cost.

In fact, Jia himself does not have any addiction to cigarettes, that is, he usually smokes one or two cigarettes for socializing when chatting with other managers. Wen is a little expensive, and he is a little bit reluctant to smoke this every day, but there is no way, now that Wang Dong's farm is getting bigger, the workers of No. [-] have naturally formed their own small groups and classes, and Xiang Jia has already become Wang Dong's subordinates. One of the most capable people in the steward, his status is higher than other stewards. Only under Wang Ji and He Luo, Wang Dong's cronies, with his status, all stewards of the same generation smoke Kunlun Mountain. If he smoked Xining incense, he would be secretly called stingy by others, so Jiaping had to buy Kunlun Mountain to smoke.

Because he usually smokes this cigarette, he just thinks this cigarette is a bit extravagant, and he doesn't think that Kunlun Mountain will be so precious, so at this time, when he saw the two government soldiers see him take out Kunlun Mountain The expression at that time was also a little dazed.
