Daqin: I was overheard by Zulong

Chapter 110 Expensive Tea
Zhao Yi was completely speechless, but Ying Zheng had already spoken, and the servants were busy, even if he wanted to object, it was too late!
"Okay, Your Majesty's suggestion is good, but I have heard that His Royal Highness's cooking skills are unparalleled in the world!"

"That's right, that's right, especially the vegetables that His Royal Highness grows in the backyard, they are the best in the world!"

"Hahaha... It's not that the most beautiful restaurant owner in Xianyang City wants to be taken into the room of His Royal Highness as a maid, just for the dishes in the back mountain of the Prince!"

"Oh, then we have been honored by His Majesty today, and we will be blessed. Thank you for your grace!"

"Yes, yes, the minister kowtowed to His Majesty!"

While Yang Duanhe and Qiang Li were talking, they actually kowtowed to thank Ying Zheng, completely ignoring Zhao Yi, and Ying Zheng received the thanks from the two courtiers with a calm face, with a look of old age and comfort, seeing Zhao Yi's head was full of black lines.

[A bunch of old immortals, why the hell didn’t God have the eyes to accept you all...]

Ying Zheng and the old and unashamed gang wanted to stay, and Zhao Yi couldn't drive them away, so he could only arrange it and let the servants get busy.

Everyone was seated in the front hall, and soon the servants served tea, which was all the high-quality tea obtained by Zhao Yi from the system check-in.

Looking at the tea leaves standing upright in the water, looking at the crystal clear, emerald-like tea, not to mention Yang Duanhe and Qiang Yu, even Ying Zheng was amazed.

"This way of making tea is quite novel. What is this thing standing in the water? It smells delicious!"

"Well, it tastes good. It doesn't have the astringency that we cook it. Well, it tastes really good!"

"Compared with the prince's tea, our tea is like slop. How can I drink the tea at home after this!"

"Well, Your Highness, your tea is pretty good. Can you give me ten pounds and eight pounds to try?"

Yang Duanhe and Qiang Li soon became addicted to drinking, and they were thick-skinned, so they asked Zhao Yi for it in front of Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng rolled his eyes. It was his first time drinking this tea, and he didn't ask Zhao Yi for it. These two guys were really rude.

"This tea is not mine." Zhao Yi rolled his eyes, saw Wang Chi coming in from the outside, and pointed at him directly.

"The tea belongs to him. If the two generals want to drink it, they can ask him for it. It's because my father is here that I bought half a tael from him. It cost me five thousand coins!"

"Five thousand and a half taels!" Yang Duanhe and Qiang Li almost threw the cups away, "It's too expensive."

"Just half of this thing is two to five thousand Wen, one tael is ten thousand Wen, and one catty is one hundred thousand. My mother, this is more terrifying than robbery. Your price is too high, Prince!"

Zhao Yi rolled his eyes and winked at Wang Chi. Wang Chi immediately stepped forward and cupped his hands at the two fools.

"Two generals, this is a specialty of the villain's hometown. Only one tael of tea is produced every year, so the price is reasonable. Now the last half tael has been taken out. The two generals want to drink it, but they can only wait until next year, but they are afraid of the next year. Not at this price!”

Yang Duanhe and Qiang Li's eyes were straightened, and it makes sense for them to produce one or two teas a year.
But Yang Duanhe didn't seem to care at all. After hearing what Wang Chi said, he actually took out a piece of gold.

"Then, I won't say much more. It's just this piece of gold. I should buy one or two, right?"

[Oh, Yang Duanhe is really rich. He just spends gold to buy tea. It’s a lot of money. 】

[Speaking of which, this guy seems to be a fool. When he was a general, he made do, but when he became an official, he became depraved. In the end, he was punished for corruption! 】

Zhao Yi looked at Yang Duanhe with a smile, and fell into Ying Zheng's eyes, and his heart skipped a beat.

As his general, he knew Yang Duanhe's character. He was top-notch tough in war, but when it came to politics and civil affairs, it was a mess.

If he is really allowed to be an official and corrupted by local people, it is really possible to take bribes and pervert the law. This kind of thing is not uncommon in Daqin!
Ying Zheng frowned a little. He didn't expect Yang Duanhe's end to be so miserable, but according to Zhao Yi's heart, Yang Duanhe was finally sentenced to death, it must be his own order, and it must be Yang Duanhe Too greedy!

A veteran soldier on the battlefield did not die on the battlefield, but finally died under the butcher's knife of his own people, and he was carrying such a bad name. Ying Zheng couldn't bear it, and felt that it was necessary to give Yang Duanhe a little beating, don't let him now There is the idea of ​​making a mistake!

So Ying Zheng glanced at Zhao Yi slowly and said, "Prince, your tea is indeed delicious. Let's list it as a tribute. I will pay tribute according to the amount every year. Is that okay?"

After Ying Zheng finished speaking, he looked at Zhao Yi to see how he was going to answer him.

As a result, Zhao Yi laughed happily, stood up and cupped his hands at Yingzheng, "How can you use this kind of tea that is specially provided for the emperor? Of course, you must use the best of the best! My son has already discussed with Wang Chi, and it depends on how the court buys it." gone."

When Ying Zheng heard this, he felt very comfortable. If it could be better than the tea in front of him, it would definitely taste better.

But at this moment, Wang Chi suddenly said, "I have contacted the Palace Procurement as instructed by His Highness the Crown Prince, and the Palace Procurement said that they should consider it first."

"If you have any concerns, just send him to the palace and it's over." Ying Zheng waved his hand majestically, and Zhao Yi suddenly smiled even happier.

On the other hand, Wang Chi was also smiling, "Your Majesty said this, I am relieved. In fact, the palace has to consider when purchasing, and I am confused about which one to use."

"His Royal Highness remembers that His Majesty will give His Majesty the best in everything, so there are three kinds of teas purchased for the palace, special grade Dahongpao, one or two for 15 yuan, top-grade green tea, one or two for two hundred thousand yuan, Lingnan Cliff Maojian, one or two 20 yuan, or give it all to His Majesty!"

Hiss... Ying Zheng gasped for a moment. Are you sure this is tea?There are three kinds, one is more expensive than the other!

The cheapest one costs 15 yuan, one or two, and the three types add up to more than 50 yuan. If you dare to buy it in the palace, Ying Zheng can copy his house!
When Ying Zheng was so excited, Wang Chi felt his whole body tense instantly. Not everyone could bear that kind of pressure.

Zhao Yi got up unhurriedly and cupped his hands, just in time to block in front of Wang Chi, "Father, the tea purchased for you must be of the highest quality. Wang Chi is talking about the cost price, even the processing and transportation costs." It doesn't count!"

"If you really want to include those, even the cheapest Dahongpao costs 50 yuan per tael. That's not even a son can afford, but Wang Chi uses it to honor you. You must reward him well. Hit him!"

"By the way, Wang Chi is now the steward of the printing and paper mills. Father, I would like to see if we can give him a suitable official title to prevent anyone in the court from making trouble about this!"
