Zhumen Hangui

"If you want to say that Bangladesh is really strange, they are very similar to our Yun Province. But Yun Province is spring all year round, while Bangladesh is summer."

"Wouldn't it be hot to death? It's not very comfortable in such a hot day." Some officials didn't like Xia Tian, ​​and shook their heads repeatedly when they heard it.

"Oh? Wouldn't it be unnecessary to wear cloaks and furs? Wouldn't their animal furs be useless?"

Su Yizhao burst out laughing when he heard that, my lord, your focus is really strange!

"Of course they don't need it, so we brought a lot of animal furs and horns when we came back this time. The imported products include rhino horns, bear skins, hare skins, etc., all of which are good things."

Mr. Zhao is like the stars and the moon, and he is not bad at talking, and he always answers every question.

"Oh! It seems that this time the merchant ship went to sea and gained a lot!"

Everyone couldn't help sighing for a while, and thought about it one after another, planning to add a kick to the merchant ship going to sea in the future.

"Men and women in Bangladesh can enter the market, not only the common people, but also the nobles. Women don't need to wear veils, and they can chat with men at will, and their behavior is quite casual!"

Master Zhao clicked his tongue twice, presumably because he was very dissatisfied with this behavior.

"How could there be such a scandalous thing? This is absolutely unacceptable, it is offensive!" As soon as this remark came out, everyone objected and greatly disapproved.

Su Yizhao snorted coldly, these people will accept it after the sea market has been open for a long time.

All habits are changed subtly, and this is just the beginning.

"They don't have many good things, and the country is small, so they don't have much knowledge. Our porcelain, cloth and tea were sold out immediately after they were sent over. Even the royal family is very novel about these things and can't put it down!"

Everyone praised their ignorance one after another. They are a big country, and common porcelain and tea are regarded as treasures.

"Then what are the special products of this Li country? How about the local customs?"

"That's about the same as ours, but it doesn't look very rich there. I went to their royal family, and the outside is still muddy. How does it look like our palace? There are floor tiles and gold bricks everywhere?"

Everyone couldn't help feeling superior, and some officials said: "Even in our courtiers' homes, there is no muddy land unless necessary."

"In that case, their country has no money, so they shouldn't be able to exchange it for anything of value?" Su Wenzhou couldn't help but leaned forward and asked.

"Not really, they have a lot of specialty products! Especially the ginseng, which is a good thing, as well as the yew wood tea set, horses, ceramics, sesame oil and seaweed, etc. Their horses are very strong, all BMWs, this time He brought a lot of horses with him when he came back."

Mr. Zhao spoke vigorously, and before anyone asked, he began to describe it.

"They were especially happy with the silk and satin we brought. Their silk and satin is a precious item. They are ecstatic when they have so much silk and satin at once! Moreover, the color of their cloth is extremely bright, and those women wear red It's green and doesn't look stable."

Mr. Zhao thought of the women in Liguo, there are many beauties, but they can't be talked about in public.

"Our side still has exquisite embroidery, but their side is more rough. Even women's clothes have less embroidery, but the beautiful clothes are another flavor."

"Oh! What about the Sun Country? How about the Sun Country?" Someone asked impatiently.

Just as Zhao Shiquan was about to say something, he heard the servant singing "Here, the emperor is here."

All the ministers immediately took their positions to welcome the arrival of the emperor.

The emperor first expressed condolences and rewarded the officials who went out to sea with the ship, and then asked about the customs of the Three Kingdoms.

"Your Majesty! This is the gift list presented by their king this time, please have a look at it."

Zhao Shiquan immediately presented the gift list, "Those countries are very enthusiastic and happy about our arrival, and the goods we brought are all sold out, and they are very easy to sell."

Su Yizhao smiled, this is not to those European countries yet!There are more good things over there.

"Xu Luo, order someone to present all the objects above for my review."

The emperor had never seen so many things from foreigners, so he was very interested.

"What is this expansion?" The emperor asked with great interest.

Expand?Su Yizhao immediately thought of coffee, maybe it was a literal translation from foreign language.No one in this dynasty understands foreign language, so they transliterate directly.

"It is a kind of bean similar to tea. After grinding it into powder, pour it into a cup and pour hot water, and you can drink it directly." Zhao Shiquan explained.

"Oh! Isn't that just tea?" The emperor and all the officials suddenly realized, so they said.

"I would like to taste their tea, first bring it to me to have a look."

Two guards lifted the beans up, and Su Yizhao took a look, wasn't it just coffee beans?Before we got there, the aroma of coffee beans came.

"It is said that the bean has just been discovered, and Bangladesh has just become popular, so their king presented this novel species to us."

The emperor saw a sack of beans with paper-wrapped powder next to it, so he ordered his servants to make a cup for each of the ministers, and everyone tasted it.

Seeing everyone eager to try, Su Yizhao wanted to laugh.

If you have never tasted this coffee before, you may not be able to accept it for the first time.

"Your Majesty, this fattening tastes a bit bitter." Zhao Shiquan reminded immediately.

"Hey~ Can there still be some tea bitterness?" The emperor waved his hand, not taking it seriously.

Not long after, a cup of coffee was placed in front of the officials.

The emperor smelled it very fragrant, so he took a sip anxiously.

But after taking a sip, the emperor almost spit it out.

It was too bitter, the emperor frowned, and finally couldn't hold back, and covered his mouth with the handkerchief.

Su Yizhao can be sure that it was spit on the handkerchief.

"Your Majesty! You can drink this stuff with sugar or sweetened milk, so that it tastes better." Zhao Shiquan reminded again.

All the ministers also took a sip curiously after hearing the words, but their faces were all tangled up. For a moment, they didn't spit out what was in their mouth, nor did they spit it out.

How can there be such a bad drink?So people in Bangladesh really can't drink tea?

Poor Bangladeshis, such things can be treasured.

The ministers didn't dare to lose their manners in front of the palace, so they could only hold back and drink it.

After that, no one said much, but they all pushed this thing away.

Su Yizhao took a sip, and remembered the days when he worked overtime and drank coffee to refresh himself in his previous life.

After working for two months, I still haven't received my last month's salary. It's too miserable.

Everyone shook their heads and didn't want to drink, only Su Yizhao drank a few sips with a look of aftertaste on his face.

Seeing this, the emperor immediately said: "Su Aiqing, I think this fattening suits your taste very much, so I will give you half of it!"

After the emperor finished speaking, he couldn't wait to order Xu Luo to share half with Su Yizhao, because he didn't want to drink this stuff anymore.

The rest was distributed to the concubines in the harem, lest they clamor for rewards every day.
