Chapter 345 Easily done(1/2)

He Fei and Mao Shizhu came out of the inn and were riding in the same carriage.

Many people don’t know that He Fei and Mao Shizhu are actually from the same group of juren, and they are from the same province. At that time, the two lived in a yard in the provincial capital for half a year to prepare for the exam.

Therefore, even if they take different paths, their friendship is very good.

Mao Shizhu did the task of destroying the rebellious natives in Yibin. Without the support of a prefect who actively cooperated, he would not be able to do so easily.

With the strong suppression of Mao Shizhu in this regard, the public security situation in Yibin was very good, and the operation of Yibin's wharf became more and more smooth, becoming an important node in the southeastern Sichuan in the Yangtze River Basin.

The two of them complement each other so well.

"Shitou, what do you think of Prince Yu?" He Fei asked.

"A very smart person is also very capable of turbulent." Mao Shizhu said, "But there is only one thing, do you believe what he said?"

"What's the matter?"

"That's what's going on with cigarettes." Mao Shizhu said.

While speaking, he kept weighing the cigarettes given by Liu Mingqi in his hand.

He Fei did not answer and asked back, "What do you think?"

Mao Shizhu said: "I think, we will know the popularity he mentioned after a little inquiry. We will definitely not be fake... I am willing to believe that this thing can become popular.

But just take a little bit of it, it can represent our Dakang's reputation for overseas sales, just like tea, porcelain, and silk. I think Prince Yu has exaggerated it."

He Fei smiled and said, "I don't know whether he exaggerates cigarettes. But I know that his sugar has made the people of Nanzhao, Piao Kingdom, Li Kingdom, Lu Kingdom, and Baiyue crazy.

A pound of white sugar is priced at one tael of silver in Beijing, and five taels of silver here in our place, but in their country, it is at least 10 to twenty taels per pound, and every time I snatch it, I sold it all in one go!”

"So do you think he can do it this time?" Mao Shizhu asked.

"Who knows? Let's try it first!" He Fei said, "Since the emperor is optimistic, there is no reason why we don't support it."

"The emperor is optimistic?" Mao Shizhu was shocked, "Is the emperor here to secretly order?"

"No."

"How do you know?"

"It's very simple. The emperor sent the embroidered guards to accompany him and then allowed them to leave the capital with such a big fanfare. Isn't this optimistic? Do you have to say it out?"

"Um……"

Mao Shizhu nodded and expressed his approval.

"I won't sleep tonight, and I have to find some gentry and landlords to discuss it." He Fei spread his hands and "bring them."

"What do you take?"

"cigarette."

"What are you doing? Don't you?"

"I'm going to stay up late, so I'm just trying to see the effect of cigarettes. How can one pack be enough?"

"cut……"

Mao Shizhu could only hand the cigarette in his hand to him, and said, "Don't forget, Prince Yu said it's best not to exceed one pack a day."

"Don't worry, I don't smoke often, I just look at the effect."

He Fei smiled, full of emotion, "I really hope what he said is true. In this way, our Yibin will really take off!!"

...

Early morning.

Liu Mingqi had just had breakfast when the guards outside came to report that He Fei, the governor of Yibin Prefecture, came to pay a visit.

There were about a dozen gentry and landlords following He Fei.

While sighing that He Fei was indeed a capable minister, the young man ordered Dazhu beside him to bring out something.

When He Fei and others entered the small courtyard of the inn together, they happened to see Dazhu coming with two bandaged boxes.

"Come on, everyone, this is my Prince of Dakangyu, His Highness Liu Mingqi." He Fei introduced to a group of people, "The Prince of the Crown is not only talented, but also wrote the 'Sacrificial Theory for Sacrifice for Righteousness' and "Encouraging Learning", and also developed the business name of Prince Yu's Mansion in full swing. The soap, flower essential oil, toilet paper, sugar, and the honeycomb coal we discussed in our daily lives are all made by His Highness."

"Oh my god."

An old gentleman in his sixties bowed in surprise and bowed in surprise, "It turns out that he is a saint! Wang Zhongdao, a student who is not talented, has seen a saint!"

Liu Mingqi was sitting there, so she quickly stood up, "I'm so polite, please sit down!"

He is a modern person and has no idea of ​​status, but he needs respect for the elderly.

Little did they know that seeing him being so polite, the group of people next to him became more fond of him.

Some people who were originally reluctant in their hearts also felt a little more acknowledged and secure.

Everyone sat down on the chair.

Liu Mingqi took the opportunity to ask Dazhu to open the box and distribute things to everyone.

"Come on, come on, everyone." Liu Mingqi waved, "I didn't bring any gifts here. Please accept these little things, so it can be regarded as a meeting gift."

He Fei was secretly surprised. He didn't expect that Liu Mingqi was so humble and polite.

It is reasonable for you to say that he is polite to the two local military and political chiefs.

But being so polite to this group of local landlords is completely too approachable and uncomfortable.

However, he quickly calmed down, picked up the package beside him, opened it and looked at it: "Oh... Is this sugar? Wow, what are these smaller bags?"

This is a good supporting actor.

Liu Mingqi nodded secretly, Lao He was very good at speaking.

The boy smiled and said, "The small bag of white rabbit milk candy is a big white rabbit milk candy. Maybe you haven't heard of it. It tastes pretty good, you can try it!"

"Ah! Is this the Big White Rabbit Milk Candy?"

He Fei was really surprised this time, "I just heard from my colleagues that there is a kind of sugar that is crazy about being sought after in Gyeonggi, called Big White Rabbit Milk Candy... It is said that it is made of buffalo milk and white sugar, and it is very delicious!"

"right!"

Liu Mingqi said first: "The emperor and the empress dowager also like it very much. The output is not enough now, and they are almost all made by the palace, the prime minister, and the generals of the Shangshu. After a while, it should be sold some of them around next year."

When he heard this, the local buns and gentry and landlords in these places suddenly felt awe.

There was a landlord with a relatively impatient personality who simply opened a small bag and took out a big white rabbit milk candy from it.

At first, he didn't know how to eat it, but with the help of Dazhu, he peeled off the candy paper and put the big white rabbit milk candy into his mouth.

"Um……"

The landlord let out a long sigh of satisfaction, his face full of joy: "It tastes delicious... it is fragrant, sweet and smooth... It is indeed worthy of being the one that both the Emperor and the Queen Mother like!"

Seeing him like this, the group of people didn't care about etiquette anymore and tore open the candy paper and stuffed the big white rabbit milk candy into their mouths.

Including He Fei, the supporting actor.

As a result, he was like everyone else and couldn't help but groaning in happiness.

The importance of candy to humans is incomparable to anything.

Especially this kind of happy satisfaction is enough to soothe the hearts of many people.

“Woo woo woo woo…”

A thinner landlord suddenly cried as he ate, "Young prince is so rich, he can actually think of us lower class people... I can eat such good things in my life, it's really worth the rest of my life..."

Liu Mingqi was a little embarrassed, "Just just have a small gift. If you have too many in the future, you can buy it yourself. Don't be so polite, be more casual, ah?"

He Fei disagreed, "Your Highness is wrong. I heard that the White Rabbit milk candy is sold for five or six taels of silver even if it is just a pack of twenty pieces... If you get it here, wouldn't it cost more than ten taels? What's more, what you bring is not only the precious White Rabbit milk candy, but also a friendship, right, everyone?"

"right!"

The group of people answered in unison, no matter whether they were sincere or not.

"Don't worry, saint!"

The old gentry who was the first to speak just now chewed the big white rabbit milk candy and said, "What... I am a man who has grown it! I will definitely take out the best land and use the best tenants to make them serve them carefully, and never let your hard work be wasted!"

"Yes! I planted it too!"

"Me too!"

"Little Prince, please wrap it with us!"

“…”

In the blink of an eye, everyone agreed in unison.

This made He Fei a little dumbfounded.

Before we came just now, you were a little hesitant, why did you suddenly become so fast?

What is the reputation of Prince Yu so effective?

Is the big white rabbit milk candy so powerful?

Incredible!!
