"Really? Is there such a thing in the world?"

Bai Jingyuan's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief!

This Jingshan Kingdom is so weird! It is also strange that it can last for thousands of years without destroying the country!

As far as he knew, the state of Chu was far stronger than Jingshan. Even if the possibility of his subordinates giving to their mother country was eliminated, they would definitely not be the weakest among the countries.

It seems that even if he is busy waiting to die, he will die!

After hearing the gossip of Jingshan Kingdom, Bai Jingyuan suddenly felt better.

"I dare not deceive the young master with lies. Jingshan is a country with a large area of ​​narrow land and a large number of people, and the resources are not abundant. It is also the queen in power, so it is very different from other countries. It is normal."

Although it was a bit strange that the young master didn't even know this kind of common sense, Huan Wen still did not show any strangeness. From beginning to end, he only thought he was growing up in the deep palace and had no chance to hear about these foreign affairs.

There are green plants under the window, and the leaves as big as palms are smooth and green, and they are not adjusted in winter.

The rain has stopped for a long time, and water still drips under the eaves from time to time falls on the green plants, making the green leaves "bangdong" sound.

Bai Jingyuan is still savoring it, and at the same time deepens his understanding to prevent the emergence of branches when passing by Jingshan for a while.

Huan Wen said for a long time, his throat was already dry and smoked. Seeing that the young master finally stopped asking questions this time, he quickly picked up the fragrant drink that the maid had just changed into and sipped elegantly.

The room was so quiet that I could only hear the sound of water droplets under the window.

At this moment, I heard the Lu'er report: "Young Master, a businessman from Sanqiu comes to offer a gift."

In this era, tribute has become a trend. Whether it is a civilian, aristocrat, or just a humble businessman or slave, whoever they find something strange, whether it is a big turtle, a big bird, a strange rock and a strange wood, or even the delicious wild fruits collected in the wild, will come to give it to the king in excitement.

This is an elegant matter. No matter how busy the king is, he must take time to meet him. He must treat everyone equally in order to show his kindness and his attitude of being as close as a family to everyone in the country.

Now that the former king is dead, the young master will do this for nothing.

When he was in Sucheng, Bai Jingyuan was a little uneasy when he received the gift at the beginning, for fear that these people would not go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing and wanted to ask him for something.

After gritting the bullet and collecting a few pieces of cloth, someone brought precious jade. He was afraid that after he had collected it, he would not be able to help with what the man asked for, so he refused to accept it. As a result, the man actually smashed the jade in front of him and threw the sentence "I must find the rare treasure jade, otherwise I will see the young master again." Then he turned around and left!

He was stunned for a moment, but Lu'er explained to him that he understood.

It turned out that these people came to offer gifts not to get anything from him, but to fame.

After the merchant presents a gift, he can sell it out; after the Chinese presents a gift, he can immediately gain a good reputation, and corrupt officials, cruel officials, gangsters and hooligans dare not exploit it; as for aristocratic families, they can often use this to rise to the top.

This is an era when there are not so many rules.

I heard that there is no wall in Phoenix Platform, and Chinese people can still enter the palace to have fun at any time!

"Are you here to offer silk again?"

Sancho produces the best silk fabrics in China, and he still knows that.

There have been many people who offer gifts, and he is already very experienced.

"No! It's a kind of seasoning! Because I heard that we won't go to Qishui anymore, we came here specially!"

If you go to Qishui, you have to pass by Sanqiu. If you don’t go there anymore, you will not pass by. It is normal for these people to come here.

Bai Jingyuan nodded, saying that he had understood the situation, and asked again: "What seasoning is it?"

If he sees farewell, he may not be interested. If he delivers food, he will be very happy! The bee pupa a few days ago has been lingering in endless aftertaste!

In order to prevent the criminal from committing crimes by taking advantage of the opportunity of offering gifts, the servants will first see the things presented.

Lu'er has obviously seen it.

But he didn't recognize it either: "That man doesn't want to say it, he will know it if he only says the young master has tasted it."

"Then let him in!"

Bai Jingyuan is a little looking forward to it.

He hoped it was chili.

Seeing this, Huan Wen was about to leave. Bai Jingyuan hurriedly left him: "The magistrate of Huan County is knowledgeable, so why not watch the fun here."

Huan Wen smiled and stayed obediently.

The kings of various countries have never heard of anyone who tastes good, so that the people who offer gifts collect more food. Today, they will witness it. Even as a minister of Chu, such things are not easy to spread and to tell the children of the clan. This is an interesting thing.

Not long after, a fat white businessman came in with a clay pot with a big head in his own hands.

The clay pot was painted with some unknown flower on its stomach, and the hole was sealed with cloth and soil. Bai Jingyuan's nose wings fluttered, and he didn't smell it. He was not anxious. He just sat on his head with a smile and looked at him calmly.

The merchant smiled like a Maitreya Buddha, put down the pottery jar, and respectfully bowed down and bowed to him. Then he talked about his identity and purpose:

"I am a merchant from the Sangqiu Liu clan. My clan's clan, Jiyue, visited a friend in the Jin Kingdom and got a special seasoning. When I learned that the young master had delicious food, I specially ordered the slave to come and offer it to the young master!"

"Oh? Young Master Jiyue?"

When he saw him, he asked people instead of asking about things at the first time, and the businessman smiled even happier.

"Young Master Jiyue drank to the moon before hustling in the winter, but unfortunately he was infected with the cold. If the head of the family advised him, he would have come to meet the young master in person this time. I would not have been able to get such a beautiful woman!"

He gave a little hand, Bai Jingyuan smiled gently, asked Liu Jiyue's condition, called the doctor, gave the palace secret medicine, expressed his greetings and expectations, and then looked at the pottery jar placed in front of the merchant.

Before he could speak, the businessman smiled and introduced:

"This thing enters the throat like charcoal. After a while, you will sweat profusely and feel refreshed. It is used for meals, which is very delicious. This is a secret recipe copied by Mr. Jiyue. If Mr. Ji likes it, you can also make it yourself in the future."

This is because of the precious status of a young man, he is unwilling to eat foreign food.

Bai Jingyuan nodded, generously gave the merchant a piece of golden cake, and then told him to pass the message to Liu, saying that when Mr. Jiyue is old, he will come to see him in person if he has the chance.

As for whether you are really sick, you don’t need to go into it.

The children of aristocratic families always do this. They send slaves to inquire first. Only after receiving a positive reply will they continue to the next step. They are proud to lick them on their knees.

The merchant went down happily, and Bai Jingyuan also stood up happily and couldn't wait to ask the servant to open the jar.

While asking someone to call the scoop, he took off the copper chip from his waist and was about to dig the jar.

"Young Master, no! Let's wait until the slave tastes it!"

"Don't make a noise! ​​Can the Liu family in Sanqiu still bet on the family's generational foundation for a can of seasoning?"

His fate is now connected with the fate of domestic families.

He died, Chu State left, and the aristocratic family was facing a crisis of destruction. There was a causal line!
