Datang: In order to be a salted fish, I decided to look forward to my father Jackie Chan

Chapter 71 Sugar Cane Project
A young son, threw an ingot of broken silver, and said loudly.

When Li Xiao heard it, there is such a rich master?Take a closer look, isn't that Cheng Chumo's second brother?You are so courageous, call yourself by my own name!
The gavel was slapped again, and the storyteller slowly said, "Four times, Yiku has a great reputation, and he has gathered together all the heroes.

Once the plan is lost, it will be painful to shed tears on the green hills.

Like a dream, like a dream, Lai Youxin handed over to die."

Li Xiao was listening upstairs shaking his head, fascinated, Xiaoer took today's protagonist upstairs!

The visitor was short and stout, with dark skin, a full beard, and shrewdness in his small eyes!

"Mr. Geng is polite!"

Li Xiao got up to greet him, and invited Feng An to sit down, "Xiaoer serves!"

"Master Li, you are too polite!"

With a rough voice, Feng Ang sat down calmly.

On the third day after arriving in Chang'an City, Feng An received an invitation letter from Li Xiao. Originally, Feng An didn't care much about the banquet of a distinguished son.

But after understanding, this Li Xiao has an unusual background, the youngest founding baron, who is popular in Chang'an, and even the major shareholder of Xinyi Commercial Bank in ten states in the world!

With just these two items, I can get my attention, let alone Li Shimin's prospective son-in-law!

Not long after, the waiter brought dishes, one cloth dish.

Boiled river prawns, steamed sea bass, the dishes are basically prepared according to the habits of southerners.

"Mr. Geng, come and have a taste, these dishes suit your taste."

Looking at the table full of southern dishes, Feng An sighed in his heart, this Lord Li is really impeccable in his life and work.

These days, he ate some northern food all day long. Although Feng An didn't say anything, he still felt a little grudge in his heart!

"Thank you, Lord Li, for your kindness!"

Feng An expressed his thanks solemnly.

"Pick up vegetables, pick up vegetables, they are all northern cooks, I don't know if they can satisfy the Duke."

During the dinner, Li Xiao chatted about the customs of Lingnan, asked about the mountains and rivers of Gaozhou, and occasionally said a few words about the style of Gaozhou.

Lychees, longan, bananas, Li Xiao can do it at his fingertips!
Feng An was shocked for a moment, because he didn't know what bananas looked like. After Li Xiao described them, he remembered that he had indeed seen them, but most of them were wild and less planted.

Litchi and longan in Gaozhou began in the Qin Dynasty, and bananas began in the Han Dynasty, but the mass planting of bananas was still at the end of the Ming Dynasty.

Following Li Xiao's train of thought, recalling bits and pieces of his hometown, Feng Ang, who had only been away for two months, actually felt homesick!

"What a pity!"

Li Xiao let out a long sigh.

ah?pity?What a pity?Gaozhou has been described by you as a paradise of immortals, is this a pity?
"My lord, what do you think is a pity?"

"Duke, don't call me a noble. You also know that the Tang Dynasty does not confer a title for military merits. My title is just a decoration. Just call me Master Praise!"

"Okay, then don't call me a prince, I'll take advantage of it, just call me Uncle Feng!"

Feng An patted his chest and laughed loudly.

Li Xiao immediately climbed up, "Uncle Feng, what's taking advantage of it, don't be so polite!"

"By the way, Shi Zan, what did you say was a pity?"

Li Xiao held the wine glass, the two of them touched each other, drank it down and then said slowly, "It's a pity that we northerners can't taste these three delicacies!"

Before Li Xiao finished speaking, Feng An slapped the table and immediately expressed his opinion, "Next year, when the fruit is ripe, I will arrange some people on the post road. At that time, eight hundred miles will send it to you urgently! I guarantee you can eat the best Fresh fruit!"

The manpower of the post road belongs to the imperial court. If they dare to use it privately, the emperor Li Shimin will arrest and kill them. That is the national defense system!

But on the post road, there is no problem in arranging some of his own subordinates to handle errands at intervals!
After Li Xiao thanked her, she continued with regret on her face, "What's even more regrettable is that Uncle Feng is guarding the treasure land, but he can't cash them all out!"

How else can this be realized?

Li Xiao was persuasive and persuasive, and the banquet was harmonious, and finally achieved the purpose of Li Xiao's trip. Feng An was also extremely grateful to Lord Li for taking such good care of him!

After Li Xiao sent Feng An to the carriage, Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu came out from the corner of the Xiankelai lobby.

"How did the talk go?" Qin Huaiyu asked with concern, "If you don't let us follow, we will be very uncomfortable in the lobby. The ears of "Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties" will be full of cocoons!"

Li Xiao chuckled and put on his robe, "Didn't you see Geng Guogong's smile? It's settled. He is in charge of planting sugarcane. When the time comes, we just need to build a workshop before harvesting, and it's time for a win-win situation!" "

Hiccupped, "Go, accompany me to see the situation of a few shops, I haven't been there for a long time!"

Cheng Chumo still wants to go home and spread out the corpse, and he still has to go shopping. Isn't this just looking for trouble? "What's so interesting, isn't it operating as usual?"

"Stop rambling, let's go!"

Li Xiao took the lead and walked towards the West Market. The East Market and Suzaku Street were often passed by these places, but Li Xiao always felt that there was a lack of fireworks!
Only in the West Market, there is a lot of traffic every day, daily necessities, rice, oil and salt, these things are needed in the world, in order to experience the world of mortals!

In the west market, the sound of hawking and arguing can be heard endlessly.

"My dear mother, why are there such different barbarians?" Cheng Chumo looked at the impenetrable West Market, where outsiders of all colors gathered together.

"You don't spread corpses at home all day long, you ride horses and hunt, why do you care about these things?" Qin Huaiyu made a mockery of Cheng Chumo, and continued, "Several vassal states will come to pay tribute this year, Turkic, Dongying, Linyi, and Silla. "

"These people have come to Datang, how can they not do some shopping?"

In the store of Xishi Xinyi Commercial Bank, the black and thin Linyi people drove a long horse-drawn carriage team, looking at paper, soap, books and other good things, and exchanged them for spices.

A proficient Datang mandarin came out of the mouths of these dark-skinned people, "Shopkeeper, how do you use these soaps?

When the shopkeeper saw his owner entering the shop, he ignored Lin Yiren and hurriedly invited Li Xiao and the others in.

"I said shopkeeper, obviously I came first, why did you ignore us?"

"Hey, let me tell you, you fools, put your tricks in the spotlight. These three are the owners of our Xinyi Commercial Bank!"

In the Tang Dynasty, the common people looked down upon foreigners with their hearts!

Linyi is located in the southeast of the Indochina Peninsula, that is, in southern Vietnam. In addition to the famous spices, it is Champa rice, which is a well-known specialty at home and abroad. It can be ripened three times a year and has an excellent taste!

These Linyi people never faced cynicism in the Tang Dynasty, so they were used to it. Afterwards, the leader, Ruan Gan, ordered his subordinates to take a large bag of cloves from the carriage and put them on the desk of Xinyi Commercial Bank.
