Wu Yong's face turned pale. He never expected that Qin Feng would make a fuss about the saint!
Seeing everyone's frightened look, Qin Feng felt very interesting, and immediately struck while the iron was hot: "Is it possible that in the entire Daliang Kingdom, only the saint and our Qin Mansion know how to save?"
There was no movement at all, especially Li Rui and others, whose faces turned green and wanted to refute Qin Feng, but what Qin Feng said was all true. Rather than refuting Qin Feng, it is better to refute the saint. Who has the courage? Not to mention Li Rui, everyone at the scene wanted to smash all those priceless gifts right away.
You can guess with your toes that these words will soon reach the ears of the saint. Anyone who gives a big gift will be recorded in the saint's notebook.
King Ji is old-hearted, and he is not short of these gifts. In addition, Qin Feng's words, no matter what he thinks in his heart, his face is full of smiles, and he greatly appreciates Qin Feng's remarks.
"Hahaha, Feng'er's words are very true. Nowadays, Daliang's finances are tight, and the heavy gifts you have sent are really inappropriate. But since it is everyone's wish, I will naturally accept them one by one, and will register them together. Send it to the palace to fill the treasury.”
Qin Tianhu, who was so angry that he almost vomited blood just now, suddenly changed his mood. He was secretly glad that he didn't rush to take out the ginseng just now!
At this time, he looked at the broken sack prepared by Qin Feng. The more he looked at it, the more he liked it!
I didn't expect this brat to think so far ahead.
King Ji's birthday is a major event in Kyoto today. According to past customs, the saint will also send people to bring some gifts. On the cusp of this storm, if you find that everyone has no restraint and is still spending money like water, even if you don't say anything on the surface, you will definitely be quite angry in your heart. By then, no one can be sure when the saint will settle his account.
Qin Tianhu breathed a long sigh of relief. If Qin Feng, a brat, wasn't so clever, he would have almost committed a taboo, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face.
At the same time, everyone's attention was focused on Qin Feng's broken sack.
The same is true for King Ji. Regardless of whether he likes it in his heart or not, he has to pretend to like it on the surface!
"Feng'er, what is the gift you prepared? Stop being so secretive and let me see it."
Qin Feng sighed secretly. In order to promote sugar, he, the boss behind the scenes, did it himself. Is it easy? Be sure to stew a few big elbows when you get home to reward yourself.
Qin Feng no longer hesitated, and in front of countless pairs of eyes that were extremely contemptuous but pretended to be appreciative despite their conscience, Qin Feng slowly opened the sack and asked the servant to get the empty bowl. He dug out a large bowl and handed it over.
Looking at a large bowl full of white sugar, King Ji was stunned for a moment and said in surprise: "Nowadays, the sucrose production area has been hit, and frosting is a scarce commodity. Even my own palace has to calculate its use. Why is the Qin Palace hoarding so much?" More frosting?”
King Ji felt that the color of the icing was wrong. It was many times whiter than ordinary icing, so he pinched a little with his fingers and put it in his mouth. It melted in his mouth, and his lips and teeth were sweet. His eyes suddenly lit up: "Although ordinary icing is good, it is not as sweet. Not as good as sucrose. Not only are these icings as white as snow, but they are no less sweet than sucrose. Qin Feng, where did you get these top-quality icings?"
Not to mention everyone present, even Qin Tianhu looked confused when he saw the sugar.
Now, in response to the sage's call, the Qin Mansion's food and clothing expenses have been reduced. Luxury goods such as icing sugar have not been replenished after the inventory was used up, and have been completely replaced by cane sugar. This brat actually bought so much of the best frosting in one go and packed it in sacks. It was really irritating!
Qin Feng quickly jumped off the table, carrying the sack, and ran to Prince Ji. He put on the face of a profiteer and started selling: "Prince Qi, these are not icing sugar, but white sugar."
"White sugar?" King Ji frowned. He had only heard of sucrose and icing sugar, but never heard of white sugar.
Qin Feng explained with a smile on his face: "Let's put it this way, if there are three, six or nine grades of sugar, this white sugar is the noblest one among sugars. One hundred kilograms of sucrose can produce one kilogram of icing sugar, and It takes one hundred pounds of icing sugar to produce one pound of white sugar.”
Anyway, they don't know the origin of sugar. Qin Feng just lets go and brags. As a businessman, how can he gain a foothold in the business world if he doesn't even know how to brag?
White sugar, as cheap as Chinese cabbage, was suddenly blown by Qin Feng into the king of sugars, the best of the best.
Everyone has never seen Baitang, so they naturally believe in Qin Feng's words.
Li Rui was angry for a while. Although the Li Mansion was not short of icing sugar, it was nothing compared to the white sugar in front of him.
In addition to envy, jealousy and hatred, Li Rui was not idle, and immediately shouted angrily: "One hundred pounds of icing sugar can produce one pound of sugar? So isn't this sugar sky-high price? You just said that the national treasury is tight, what about this sugar?"
Qin Feng had long expected that Li Rui would make use of the topic, and narrowed his eyes: "Young Master Li doesn't know anything. I refine these sugars myself, and I only need to pay some cost price. Besides, I have this skill, so I can't Abandoned, right? Could it be that the national treasury is tight, so the jade carver will have to go home to plow the fields? The winemaker will have to change his profession to pick up manure? How can this not make sense!"
Li Rui was speechless and had no choice but to give up.
After hearing Qin Feng's words, King Ji's last worries were dispelled, and he suddenly beamed with joy.
These white sugars are valuable in themselves, and they are refined by Qin Feng himself, so they have nothing to do with "squandering". It not only gives value, but also gives benefits, and it can also avoid the suspicion of the saint, killing three birds with one stone.
Prince Ji directly reached out and patted Qin Feng on the shoulder, and praised him without hesitation: "Feng'er is thoughtful. I really like these white candies."
As soon as these words came out, Qin Tianhu was even happier than Qin Feng. The anger in his heart was swept away, and a trace of pride rose on his face.
Wu Yong secretly gritted his teeth!
The reason for this matter was that the Kirin wine glass, which was worth hundreds of thousands taels, just failed to please King Ji, and it was a sin to give it away. Qin Feng was carrying a torn sack, which actually made King Ji smile. If he had known that he would buy some special products as gifts, but... what could be better than sugar? Wu Yong thought about it for a long time, but couldn't figure out the reason.
Qin Feng had no time to pay attention to other people now. His thoughts were all on King Ji, so he handed the entire sack directly to the servant.
Afraid that others wouldn't hear, he shouted loudly:
"My prince has been fighting for the country for decades and has made great achievements. Now he finally retires to his country and enjoys his old age. Naturally, he wants to enjoy some happiness.
"As a junior, my nephew is not able to afford treasures such as the Kirin wine cup or the Night Pearl, but he is eager to offer it to the prince. How about this, in the future, my nephew will cover all the sugar that the prince needs. Please don't refuse your nephew. My son’s thoughts.”
