Li Shimin's eyelids twitched.
He forcibly suppressed the urge to ask Zhang Feng how to solve the predicament in Chang 'an City and his father's conflict. He narrowed his eyes and asked, "What kind of deal is so mysterious? Is it related to Zhen La? "
"Oh! As expected of Lao Li! His brain was better than Old Wei and Lai Sun's! I guessed it from those fools! "
Li Shimin curled his lips.
Even a fool could guess it, okay?
However, Zhang Feng's words were very effective on him.
It was very strange. There was no shortage of flatterers in the court, but Li Shimin was annoyed when he saw them. He wanted to kill them, but he was looking forward to Zhang Feng's praise.
And it was the kind of praise that was full of sarcasm.
This made Li Shimin very happy.
He cupped his hands and personally took a jar of wine from the counter. Without waiting for Zhang Feng's instructions, he opened the mud seal and drank from the jar.
"What kind of friendship do we have? Although we have never been on the battlefield! But it can be considered a friendship of life and death! Everything that I have now is all because of your guidance. Just tell me! What kind of deal? "
"I've been waiting for you, Lao Li!"
Zhang Feng pulled Li Shimin to sit beside him. He hooked his arm around Li Shimin's neck and said, "I'll tell you! Do you know why Zhen La's people were like that just now? "
"Why?"
"Oh right, I forgot. How did you manage to trick them into giving you something so precious?"
"Trick?"
Zhang Feng glanced at Li Shimin and immediately showed a look of disdain. .
"Do you think I, Zhang Feng, relied on trickery? I relied on my own ability, okay? "
"But, this stupid prince is really a f * cking rich idiot! Look … Tsk tsk! "
He took out the jade pendant on Da La's neck and shook it, making Li Shimin want to snatch it.
"This is the filial piety money I gave them when I pointed them out! I earned it with my own ability! "
"Then tell me, how did you point them out?"
Li Shimin was interested and forgot many of his troubles.
It seemed that only in this small tavern could he really show his true nature.
"Do you know what Zhen La's specialty is?"
Zhang Feng asked mysteriously.
Li Shimin was really confused.
What did Zhen La produce?
This …
Every year, the tributes were basically ordinary goods. In that place, people were so poor that they couldn't even afford to wear pants. What else could they offer?
But seeing Zhang Feng's expression, Li Shimin couldn't help but become excited.
"Did you find something new?"
"Yes!"
"Let me ask you, Old Li, have you ever heard of relying on the mountain to live off the mountain and the water to live off the water?"
"I've heard of it! And this matter has been taught by the Han people for generations! "
Li Shimin was sure.
"Alas!"
Zhang Feng sighed.
"Do you know that that idiot Zhen La doesn't even know this?! Don't you think it's infuriating? Born in a treasure mountain, but starved to madness. I think, in the whole world, Zhen La is so naive and cute! "
"Just tell me, what did you find?"
Li Shimin didn't wait for Zhang Feng to finish his long-winded speech and hurriedly poured him a bowl of wine and asked.
"Don't worry!"
"Listen to me first. This matter is related to the long-term supply of table salt and the important point of whether the Tang Dynasty can firmly control the surrounding countries!"
So powerful?
Li Shimin was also shocked.
He hurriedly put down the irritation in his heart.
He listened carefully.
Zhang Feng was not in a hurry now.
"What do the coastal areas rely on for a living, Lao Li?"
"Fishing!"
"The coastal areas of the Tang Dynasty rely on fish for a living. Isn't Zhen La doing the same?"
Zhang Feng shook his head and asked again, "Then, what do they catch?"
"Fish, just fish! Is there anything delicious in the sea? No way! "
Zhang Feng wanted to vomit blood.
The sea!
The coastal areas!
What kind of place was that?
That was a treasure bowl!
"Let me tell you, the most worthless thing in the sea is fish! Do you think those skinny, salty fish taste good? "
Li Shimin shrugged and sighed, "You may not know!"
"Sea fish are basically an important way to extract salt from the sea. The inland relies on this salt to survive. What do you think these sea fish mean?"
"Wrong!"
Zhang Feng looked at Li Shimin as if looking at a fool and said, "I really doubt you. Are you a businessman? Can't you think this way? Let me tell you, the most worthless thing in the sea is fish! And those things that you think are the most unsightly are the real good things! "
While talking.
Zhang Feng took out a piece of paper again.
He seriously drew the shape of a sea cucumber on the paper and said, "This thing is called sea cucumber ginseng. You know it, right?"
"I know this! But what does it have to do with this? Is this sea cucumber also a tonic? "
Zhang Feng exploded.
"It's more than a tonic! This thing is a great tonic! Do you know? If you eat too much of this thing, it can replenish Qi and blood, and also nourish the kidney. Let's not talk about other benefits for the time being. Look at this! "
While talking, he drew lobsters again, especially Australian lobsters, seahorses, starfish, and so on.
"These are all tonics. When some things are combined with each other, it will be a medicinal herb! Extremely precious medicinal herbs! And, and this shell, this thing, grind it into powder, add some medicinal herbs, and add some pearls. It's a supreme treasure for women to beautify and whiten their skin! "
Zhang Feng's saliva flew everywhere as he talked. In the end, he tinkered with a set of things for the beauty and skin care of later generations.
And Li Shimin's whole body froze.
