The old Elementary Scholar was stubborn.
He had been stubborn his whole life.
In Zhang Feng's heart, he had the same strength of character as Tao Yuanming, but he, Zhang Feng, could not do the same!
In this world, he only knew that too much strength was easy to break. He had indeed thought of monopolizing this business, but if that happened, he would not be able to eat or sleep in peace!
In the face of such huge profits, many people would take risks out of desperation. Even though it would attract the attention of the Emperor, at that time, it would arouse killing intent and jealousy. He could not understand the Emperor's intentions.
Because …
What he could think of, the Emperor could also think of!
If that happened …
Therefore, Zhang Feng did not dare to take the risk.
He could not afford to take the risk.
"Old Xiucai, I know what you mean, but the raw materials for this thing are things that ordinary people like us can't get our hands on. They are all controlled by the government. If you don't have a good relationship with the government, then you won't even know how you died!"
"Don't talk about making money, this is equivalent to throwing away your life!"
"I know the benefits of this thing, no one knows it better than me, but this is something we cannot be greedy for!"
"Once we are greedy, then when the time comes, we will not be able to repay our debts!"
"Look at me now! I don't have to worry about anything now, and when the time comes, I will be able to sit back and reap the benefits. Who can compare to such a good thing? That's why, Old Elementary Scholar, the world has changed. There are some things that can't be measured by common sense or the things in books! "
Zhang Feng poured a bowl of wine for the old Elementary Scholar.
The old Elementary Scholar did not drink.
Instead, he stood up woodenly, his mouth mumbling something.
He slowly walked away.
Zhang Feng knew that what he said was a huge blow to the old Elementary Scholar who worshipped the sages and the teachings of Confucius and Mencius. But in this life, he had lived in the proud bones of the books.
How could the Emperor not know of his existence?
The Emperor did not say anything because he did not want to argue with an old man. But once he entered the imperial court one day, then the old Elementary Scholar's character would change.
Then …
At that time, not only would the old Elementary Scholar be unlucky, but he would also be unlucky!
Therefore, Zhang Feng might as well at this time, unravel this layer of confusion for the old Elementary Scholar.
Let him see this reality clearly.
Just as the old scholar was about to leave.
Chang 'an City was also in chaos.
The cause of the incident was a shocking piece of news that came from a teahouse in Xi City.
Blind Wang was still sitting steadily in his exclusive seat.
Everyone in the teahouse stared at him as he slowly sipped his tea.
Some of the more impatient ones were already clenching their teacups tightly.
Just as everyone was about to lose their patience, Blind Wang slammed his gavel and said, "Everyone, listen up! Today, our Blind Wang will not be long-winded! "
"Let's talk about the Bone-Strengthening Powder that came out of the vault!"
When the crowd saw Blind Wang going straight to the point, they couldn't help but get excited.
"Blind Wang, tell me, what's the deal with this Bone Strengthening Powder? I saw Kang Dingfang's Zheng Tufu, a few days ago he was still using crutches, but yesterday I heard that he made some Bone-Strengthening Powder and ate a big bowl of it. This morning he actually threw away his crutches, is this true? "
"Is the Bone-Strengthening Powder really that magical?"
"That Zheng Tufu is already 83 years old this year! But this morning he's even more energetic than us young men. He can even carry a bucket of water and show off in Chang 'an City. Is this the effect of that bowl of Bone-Strengthening Powder? "
"This … God! Is this true? Does that Bone-Strengthening Powder really have the effect of rejuvenating one's youth? "
The crowd was in an uproar.
Blind Wang smiled and stroked his beard, nodding from time to time.
When the crowd was arguing, Blind Wang said slowly, "Everyone, that Bone-Strengthening Powder doesn't have the effect of rejuvenating one's youth. I've already said this before. The reason is that this Bone-Strengthening Powder, as the name suggests, is really something!"
"Think about it, why is it called Bone-Strengthening Powder?"
"Why?!"
The crowd stared with their eyes wide open.
"Because this thing is originally used to strengthen the bones! It's used to strengthen the muscles and bones! "
"That Zheng Tufu grew up with us in the early years. Don't you think that Old Man doesn't know him? He's as strong as a bull. When he's old, his body will be weak. But once he's nourished by this thing, although he can't be compared to a young man, he's still much stronger than us! "
"So, don't believe the rumors. This Bone-Strengthening Powder …"
"Blind Wang, you're really talking nonsense!"
At this moment.
Someone on the third floor, which belonged to the rich and powerful, said contemptuously, instantly interrupting the crowd.
The middle-aged man slowly waved his folding fan and said, "I've heard rumors from the imperial physicians that this thing can strengthen the muscles and bones. It can also nourish the Yin and Yang. Most importantly, it can nourish the kidneys and strengthen the Yang!"
"You all know my father, right? Minister Zuo of the Guanglu Temple! "
When the crowd heard this, they couldn't help but stare.
This was a master!
And he knew something that the crowd didn't know. If he could stand up and speak, it meant that this matter was in the bag!
Nourishing the Yin and Yang, it could also strengthen the bones and the kidneys. Most importantly, it could strengthen the Yang!
This …
At this moment, the man glanced at Blind Wang from the corner of his eye and nodded. "Did you all know? My father took in a concubine yesterday! And it's that coquettish Hu Lady. My father is already 75 years old! "
"What?!"
"Minister Zuo Cao took in a concubine???"
"Damn! This … this Minister Zuo, is what you said true? "
"This thing … is really so magical?"
