As the saying goes, when the farm is busy, the old farmer may still be able to work hard, but it is not heavy physical strength, and there is more work in less work. And the teenagers, when they play sexually, they may do it for half an hour and an hour, but after a long time, they can fall asleep when they rest.

The solution, of course, is also very simple, ensure sleep and exercise. It's just that for the workshops and the big farms, it's a bit of a loss.

"Gurgling ......"

Seeing the black liquid bubbling in the pot, on the third pier of the China Resources in Jiangxia City, the young porter yawned, wrapped his clothes that were not too thick, and then asked the old man in the rest area of the China Resources workers in a low voice: "Uncle, what is this?" A weird smell? ”

"I don't know, it's a Hu man who is filial to Zhang Gong, that taste, it's very bitter!"

The old man is a little rickety, surnamed Mai, and is a member of the Mai clan. This year, Jiangxia City officially opened the Iron Cane Temple, and he followed him over to be happy, because in his hometown, there was a young disciple of the Mai family who was mixed up, which made him get a beauty difference in Jiangxia City.

Although it is just a doorman for the coolie foot helpers, the workers on the dock also have some spare money. From time to time, when the winner rises and the winner rises, he will eat a "soup".

"Suffering, how can anyone still eat?"

"I don't fall asleep after eating."

The old man said, "I don't know what the truth is, anyway, I just don't sleep, I heard that the Western Army also has this warm-up." ”

Jiang Han observed the embassy, "Jiang Han Admiral" Zhang De rubbed the small coffee beans in his hand, sniffed in front of his nose, and then shook his head: "Sure enough, Lao Tzu still has no taste and doesn't understand this tune." ”

Lao Zhang estimated that he couldn't taste the pros and cons of coffee for several lifetimes......

"Adult, the villain is in Jiaozhou, but he is loyal."

Kneeling on the futon, Hu Shang, who looked flattering, held his hands in his hands and asked Zhang De for credit. This man's name was Shahli, and he was a relative and friend of the same clan of the Western Army of Himyar as a member of the Tanmarsh Shaxin Baoju. Unlike Shahin, this man was quite timid, but also very greedy for money, so it took two years to smuggle a batch of coffee from the city of Axum and enter the South China Sea through the merchant ship of the prince of Gundam.

A thousand years later, coffee may not be a big deal, but at this time, the city of Axum strictly prohibits the export of coffee seeds and coffee trees. Shaheli was transformed because of Shahin's protection, and with the influence of the Tang Dynasty at this time, he became famous in the area of Southern Tianzhu.

But mixing up fame doesn't get much benefit. Because everything he did came from the acquiescence of the Tang Dynasty and the support of the China Resources.

After meeting a Persian merchant who was also doing business in Nantianzhu, Shahli discovered coffee, a sought-after commodity. At this time, the status of coffee in the Red Sea and Nile region is equivalent to the status of pepper in the middle of the river.

The Tang Dynasty banned the export of pepper trees, and similarly, coffee trees were forbidden to spread in the city of Axum.

After Shahli became acquainted with a Persian merchant, the two sides burst into a bold idea, why not dedicate the coffee to the China Resources and the Tang Dynasty?

After planning for two years, he bought off the tax collectors of Axum City, and waited until the window period when the Red Sea and the Persian Gulf were relatively stable, and only then did he get the coffee to Nantianzhu after losing half of the cargo. Subsequently, with the help of the prince of Gundam, he successfully entered Jiaozhou.

In response to this special batch of "smuggled goods," Du Zhenglun and Li Daoxing personally accepted it. For Shaheli, whether it is Du Zhenglun or Li Daoxing, they both belong to the "Tang Dynasty Governor", and they are the big names among the big people. And such a big man personally dispatched to deal with things just because of a person's message, which shows how strong this person's strength is.

Shaheli had fantasized about what Zhang De was like countless times, but he never fantasized about the Tang Dynasty emperor, because in his opinion, the Tang Dynasty emperor had exceeded his imagination.

"I took note of your merits." Zhang De nodded, and then said to Shaheli, "Think of a name, I will allow you to naturalize Jiangxia City, and after completing the formalities, you will be a Tang person." ”

For a moment, Shaheli was stunned. After a while, he cried with joy and shouted with his headbutt: "Lord Marquis Wandai, Lord Marquis Wandai-"

With the identity of the Tang Dynasty, it is very convenient for him to do business in Tianzhu Sea. He would be the leader of the entire Himyyars, and would be able to do whatever they wanted, without even an explanation.

"Let's go down."

"Yes, yes, yes...... Thank you, sir, thank you, ......"

Bending down and slowly backing back, Shaheli walked out of the door, waved his fist under the porch, and then walked briskly, then trotted, and when he got out of the observation embassy, he cried and laughed, and then ran to a ready-to-wear store, found a silver dollar, and said in an official dialect with a strong Jiaozhou accent: "Shopkeeper, I want a new dress, do you have cotton?" I want cotton! ”

A few days later, when Zhang De was inspecting the construction site of Hutou Jersey Bank, a staff member came to him with a smile on his face and ran to him: "Envoy, that Hu man really didn't know what to say, so he went to Huangzhou and asked a monk to name him." ”

"What does he have to pay for a storyteller?"

Lao Zhang also felt strange.

"It is a great matter to say that it is a name, and it is not easy to pretend to the laity."

"And what is his name?"

"What name can a monk take? It is like a floating slaughter number, called Wujing, and the word Zhongqing...... He said that he was the second and that Shaheen was the eldest brother. ”

“……”

Your hometown is the quicksand river? Coffee trees planted next to it? Then he came to the Tang Dynasty because he had a friendship with Master Xuanzang, who was discussing Buddhism with people under the Tianzhu Bodhi tree?

Why is this okay?

"Anyway, I still took the word, don't call him by his name in the future."

Although it sounds like Zhang De is going to take care of Shahli...... No, it's Sha Wujing's face, but the staff always feels that there is an ulterior secret in it.

But in any case, Sha Zhongqing is indeed meritorious, although the taste of coffee is very unsuitable for the taste of the Tang people, but its effect is self-evident.

In this era when scholars and doctors rely on "five stone powder" to increase their strength, it is more reliable to drink coffee, at least in good spirits.

The effect of refreshment, even if it is only half an hour, is enough to decide many things.

Beep Bobo......

The Central Plains has entered spring, but the royal city of Zhu Jubo in the Western Regions is still as cold as winter, and every night, there are still patches of snowflakes blowing from time to time I don't know where they come from.

In front of a bonfire in the city, An Bo, who had shaved his beard clean, shook the snowflakes on his shoulders, then picked up a bamboo cup and took a sip of coffee.

"Phew! What kind of bird 'Kawaha' is like a bitter gall! An Bo scolded, and then shouted, "Bring some more sugar!" ”

"Captain, this sugar is not cheap, how many animals can a can be exchanged for? Not to mention women. ”

"As for those sheep-smelling girls in the city, can you sleep?"

Although it is not a shortage of water, there are very few people who take a bath all year round in the Western Regions, not to mention poor families, even well-off families, most of them do not bathe. Those orchids who can sing in Chang'an are rich and noble families in their hometowns, and Rao is like this, and there are not too many lustful people in the market who can stand the smell of orchids.

For all the well-known Hu women, most of them who can be sought after by the two capitals are Turkic mixed races or Shule mixed races. The appearance of these women is also mostly "China-like", such as the Qigu people, the strongmen who come and go to Longyou in the Western Regions, and most of them regard themselves as "after Li Ling", but in fact, they are indeed black-haired and black-eyed, and there is a great difference in image from the surrounding tribes.

The soldiers of the Western Army did not say that they were accustomed to seeing beautiful women, but they were not hungry for food, and they couldn't control it earlier, that is, they were forced by Cheng Chubi to practice calligraphy at night, which suppressed the anger in their bodies.

"Mother, let's drink this 'Kawaha', let's go on the road after drinking!"

The lieutenant did it first, took a cup of coffee, patted the armor hanging on the side, and then said, "The heavy snow is blocking the road, and the Turks seem to be outnumbered, but as long as they can't attack for a long time, they will be defeated!" But you can't defend the city, and tonight, the brothers will have to practice their courage again! ”

"The commander held the Turks' strength during the day, but he attacked the city but did not take it, and the Turks' breath was already dispersed. Tonight, the lieutenant gave us an extra fifty people, can three hundred people do great things? Our brothers don't say that they are comparable to the Duke of Weiguo, and 3,000 people will be ruined from the vitality of the Turks. But if you want to make the Turkic cub break a few more teeth, you can always do it, right? ”

The deputy lieutenant of the reinforced regiment said, and An Bo also drank all the coffee, "Drink it all, lift your spirits, let's go out and do a big vote." When we go to Chang'an in the future, we will never drink this bird again! Done! ”

"It's done!"

When the three hundred men had finished drinking, they no longer made a noise, but silently carried their bows and spears, and led their beloved horses away.
