I was recommended on the History Channel today, and if I haven’t mentioned it yet, I’ll definitely update it three times! Gentlemen, please vote for us!
Also, friends who haven’t collected it yet, please feel free to collect it. Thank you very much!

Not to mention the noisy front hall.
In the back hall, His Majesty Li Er looked strangely and stared at Fang Jun without saying a word.
He really didn't expect that he asked for a magical treasure from him, thinking that it would give him some pain, but in the blink of an eye he sold another treasure without any loss...
When did this great guy have such a bright mind?
His Majesty Li Er looked at Fang Jun's upright black face with surprise and uncertainty.
Wang De and Li Junxian looked at each other, wondering what was going on. The two of them did not see the magical scene of "summoning a seven-color rainbow". They just heard the numbers of 10,000 guan, 20,000 guan, and 30,000 guan rising upwards in the front hall. They couldn't help but be surprised. What kind of treasure is it and can be worth so much money? , even His Majesty asked for it?
Fang Jun was already overjoyed.
Forty thousand dollars!
Awesome, my brother Di!
I made such a prism on the spur of the moment and actually sold it for so much money? Of course, Zhang Sunhuan deserves a lot of credit. This hard-core "sitter" is really awesome! The key is his status. If he wasn't the second son of the eldest son's family, how could Li Tai spend so much money to fight?
Thinking that this product has done a great job, I will pay the 500 guan as promised, plus a bonus of 500 guan...
I feel so good that even my heels feel light.
In this way, the long-standing financial problem is completely solved, and some of the ideas in my mind can be put on the agenda immediately.
"Your Majesty, the kitchen is preparing the dinner. Why don't you drink some tea first and wait for a while?"
Fang Jun suggested.
"Well——"
His Majesty Li Er hummed through his nose, walked back to the couch, and looked hesitant.
For some reason, as long as Fang Jun is happy, he feels unhappy...
It’s hard to see this cowardly villain getting his way!
Fang Jundian went to fetch boiling water himself and brought a tea tray with a set of crystal-clear white porcelain tea sets.
Then he took out a celadon jar from the cabinet by the wall, grabbed a handful of tea leaves and threw them into four white porcelain teacups, brewed them with boiling water, and brought them to His Majesty Li Er.
"Everyone, try it. The newly made tea tastes particularly good..."
Li Junxian didn't say anything and thanked him politely.
Wang De frowned slightly and opened his mouth to speak, but held back, thinking too casually...
His Majesty Li Er’s eyes were widened!
Damn, the little thief is so brave! What about three rolls and four bubbles? What about onion, ginger, garlic and mutton fat? Not to mention the water from Yuquan Mountain, the charcoal from Jiuwei Mountain, the small red clay stove from Jiangnan... there is none of it!
I am a majestic Nine-Five Supreme, rich all over the world, and dominate the world. Are you just messing with me like this?
I really don’t know how to write the word death? !
Seeing His Majesty Li Er's majestic and upright face filled with clouds and a hint of depression, Fang Jun was confused. He didn't know how he had offended this bad-tempered Tyrannosaurus Rex again.
Seeing Fang Jun looking at him stupidly, His Majesty Li Er became even more angry!
But he heard Li Junxian say "Hey" from the side and asked in surprise: "Erlang, what kind of tea is this? The fragrance is tangy and refreshing, but I have never seen this before!"
Fang Jun was grateful, knowing that Li Junxian was rescuing him, so he quickly said: "This tea is called Longjing. It is produced at Lingyin Temple in Hangzhou. It is made through a unique secret method. It is the best among all teas in the world and has a natural taste. Your Majesty , why not watch it often? ”
His Majesty Li Er didn't think much about it, and was naturally diverted to look at the tea in the bowl.
But I saw that the tea leaves that were originally curled into strips had been scalded by boiling water and had stretched out. The buds were standing upright. The soup was green and clear, and the fragrance was overflowing. Especially the tea leaves, one bud and one leaf, were like a flag and a gun, standing upright in the green. Among the tea, it is really beautiful.
His Majesty Li Er loves tea, but he has never seen such clear and mellow tea. He immediately picked up the tea cup.
Wang De was so anxious that he quickly stopped him: "Your Majesty..."
I was just afraid that there was something wrong with the tea.
His Majesty Li Er said calmly: "It doesn't matter."
Bring it to your lips and take a sip.
When the tea enters the throat, the taste is fragrant and mellow, and the taste buds have a unique "slippery" texture. A clear and elegant sweetness moistens the throat, and the fragrance is as sweet as orchid, quiet but not bitter.
His Majesty Li Er lightly praised: "Good tea!"
But this is the first time I know that tea is so refreshing and has a more natural and simple fragrance without all the miscellaneous condiments.
The tea of the past few decades has been wasted!
His Majesty Li Er turned back to Wang De and said: "After returning to the palace, he wrote to the local government of Hangzhou and ordered him to list this tea as a tribute and not to flow into the people."
Wang De responded: "No!"
He quietly looked at Fang Jun and said to himself, just go ahead and fight with His Majesty. See, this is the end...
Although His Majesty has a strong temper, he is definitely not a domineering person, and he rarely strictly prohibits certain tributes from flowing into the public. As a result, this Longjing tea is only available in the Forbidden Palace, so you may not be able to drink it if you want to.
But what surprised him was that Fang Jun didn't look strange. Instead, he bowed down and prostrated, shouting: "It is really an honor for the common people that this tea is favored by His Majesty!"
Wang De was a little confused, what was going on?
His Majesty Li Er was also very surprised and asked: "Xingwen is from Hangzhou, what does it have to do with you?"
Fang Jun said: "Your Majesty does not know that the tea trees and land near Lingyin Temple in Hangzhou have been bought by ordinary people. They have been registered with the local government and the land deeds have been issued. Therefore, this Longjing tea is actually the private property of ordinary people. .”
Fortunately, we had the foresight to buy the tea trees and the land together. Otherwise, if an imperial edict was issued and it became a royal possession, this eternally famous tea might have been swatted away by my little butterfly...
< br>
That would be a sin.
Wang De's eyes twitched, and he secretly exclaimed, "It's so awesome! There's no leakage!"
Turning around to look at His Majesty, I found that His Majesty's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and he was on the verge of exploding.
I came to Fangjia Manor today, but everything went wrong, and I got angry for no reason!
If this tea belongs to Hangzhou, it is classified as tribute tea and is not allowed to be sold by private parties. It doesn't matter. Who can call Li Er the biggest in the world?
But if it has been bought by Fang Jun, the nature is different.
Li Er is a wise king. He can appropriate government property for his own use, but he cannot appropriate personal items for himself.
Although there is no such thing as "private property is sacred and inviolable," if you take things from other people's homes and throw them into your own home, what is that but a fool?
Li Er couldn't do anything about this matter.
No emperor cares more about the evaluation in history books than he does!
Because he came to the throne in a shady way and was controversial, he must be strict with himself and prove to everyone that he is a good emperor and can be this emperor better than anyone else, so that people all over the world know it. , no one is more suitable to be this emperor than him!
His Majesty Li Er was so depressed that he glared at Fang Jun for a while, then stood up suddenly, flicked his sleeves, and said loudly: "Go back to the palace!"
Wang De and Li Junxian quickly stood up and guarded both sides.
Fang Jun blinked and asked: "The food is ready, why don't we leave before we finish?"
His Majesty Li Er said angrily: "Don't eat!"
He walked away.
Fang Jun curled his lips, so ungraceful...
Even though I cursed in my heart, I still had to send him out the door respectfully. But I was thinking in my heart: I will send some tea to Li Erduo tomorrow. If it touches the edge of tribute tea, the price will go up. Is there no problem?
