That afternoon, Fang Zheng returned to Banshanfang and made some simple arrangements.
Li Yuanzhao is still in full swing designing his set of food hygiene and safety methods.
Fang Zheng simply glanced at him and went straight back to Fang Mansion without any further interruption.
On the second day, I got up in the morning and rushed directly to Honglu Temple.
Naturally, I didn't go to the morning court. Since I also serve as the Prime Minister of Honglu Temple, I can fish whenever I can.
Honglu Temple is not large in area, and the overall building is similar to a giant courtyard.
In addition to being responsible for reception of foreign affairs, he also presided over activities such as sacrifices, canonizations, banquets, etc.
There are more than 200 people in total, but only 20 are mainly responsible.
Although Chen Hong is the highest official of Honglu Temple, his rank is still lower than Fang Zhengyi.
Although Fang Zhengyi now works part-time as his assistant officer, he naturally does not dare to give orders to him.
As soon as Fang Zheng arrived at Honglu Temple, Chen Hong greeted him immediately with a stiff smile on his face.
He's here, he's really here!
I hope this guy doesn't get into trouble...
"Master Fang! Welcome, welcome!"
Fang Zhengyi also smiled: "Mr. Chen, you're welcome! I'm just here for a casual visit. If there's anything you need me to do, just give me your order. You're welcome!"
"By the way, where is the Beirong delegation?"
Chen Hong's heart was in his throat.
Do you really want to receive the mission in person? Were you not responsible for all the rumors circulating in Banshanfang?
Just throw shit in someone's face!
"Well... there is someone below the mission to receive you. I have already arranged it, so we don't have to worry about it!"
"Come on, come on! Lord Fang, come in, our tea at Honglu Temple is famous for being delicious!"
"Ah? Really? Then let me try it!"
Chen Hong pulled Fang Zhengyi's sleeve and pulled him into the house.
Let him sit down directly in his seat.
Then he personally brought a plate of tea.
Fang Zheng looked at the dim sum and then at Chen Hong, and suddenly felt a little flattered.
It seems that since returning from the disaster relief, my popularity has indeed improved.
Is everyone so enthusiastic?
I picked up the snack and took a bite, savoring it for a while.
Then he threw the remaining half piece into his mouth, chewed it briefly and swallowed it.
Chen Hong said cautiously: "How is it? Is it delicious?"
"It's not delicious." Fang Zheng shook his head.
"...."
"Here, try this again, orange cake!" Chen Hong pinched a piece of snack and handed it to Fang Zhengyi.
As soon as Fang Zheng took the orange cake, he took a bite, then threw the whole piece into his mouth, chewed it twice and swallowed it.
Then he shook his head and said: "It doesn't taste good."
"...."
"Try this again!"
"This... is okay, no, it's not delicious, the filling is a bit dry."
Chen Hong felt a little crazy for no reason.
It’s not delicious, so you ate it all? ! If it doesn’t taste good, do you really mean it doesn’t taste good? Can't you give me some face? !
no! He must be held back!
Delay him for two days, and when the dinner is over, there won't be so much trouble!
Chen Hong frowned and said, "I have to satisfy you today. I'll ask the cook to make new ones."
"The freshly baked ones are delicious! Mr. Fang, wait for me here and don't run around!"
I ate five snacks and drank two cups of tea.
As soon as Fang Zheng felt a little bloated, he loosened his belt, looked at Chen Hong and said with a smile, "Mr. Chen, please don't be busy."
"I said...don't you want me to see the Beirong delegation?"
Chen Hong looked embarrassed: "How could it be possible... You are a guest, and I am afraid that I will neglect you!"
Fang Zhengyi smiled slightly: "Don't worry, I'm just doing this on a routine basis."
"Since His Majesty asked me to be the Prime Minister of Honglu Temple, I can't just do nothing at all, right?"
"The salary of the Lord of Food is not the same as letting Your Majesty know that I am eating snacks all day long. Do you think it is Mr. Chen?"
Chen Hong looked troubled.
The matter has come to this point, and there is no way to delay it. After struggling for a moment, he said: "The Beirong Mission is now at the Honglu Guest House."
"Master Fang, if you want to see him, I will take you there and forget about other things."
"They come from afar and need a rest."
Fang Zheng raised his eyebrows: "Rest? We can't let them rest!"
"Negotiations are inevitable! Let them negotiate terms with us after they have had enough to eat and drink? You are confused!"
"Why don't you throw a few chickens into the guest house! If you have nothing to do in the middle of the night, don't let them sleep!"
Chen Hong's facial features have begun to distort!
Are you talking fucking human language? Is it possible for a person to do such a thing?
Despicable!
Seeing Chen Hong's ugly face, Fang Zheng laughed: "It's a joke! It's all a joke!"
"It's all about deeds but not the heart. Who doesn't have some dark thoughts? I just thought about such immoral things. I told you that I don't treat you as a friend, Mr. Chen!"
Chen Hong wiped away cold sweat: "Yes...yes..."
"But... I still need to see the envoys when I should see them. Not only do I want to see them, I also want to take them away. I hope you can understand."
"Let's go!?" Chen Hong's voice suddenly increased, "Absolutely not! What do you want to do?"
Fang Zheng shook his head and sighed: "Hey, didn't I promise your majesty to give you a reward? I have to take those Beirong people to see what they have to offer."
"Otherwise, when the time comes, they won't like the things I send and think they are cheap goods. Wouldn't that be embarrassing?"
"My personal face doesn't matter. What I will lose is the court's face and His Majesty's face!"
"Just be at ease! I will only choose two important people to visit Banshanfang."
"The prince is also there. Do you think I can do anything random?"
Chen Hong gritted his teeth and began to breathe heavily.
No...I absolutely can't go!
It's just the two of you who get together to cause trouble, and you, using the prince as a shield, are even more lawless!
Seeing that Chen Hong still refused to agree, Fang Zhengyi was a little helpless.
After all, it is someone else's territory, and they should serve themselves delicious food.
There was no need to use force in order to see the envoy, so he could only continue: "Master Chen, I am also helping Honglu Temple find a way to run a newspaper. Give me face!"
Chen Hong still shook his head.
You think I'm stupid! There is no such thing as a single horoscope! We can talk about it later!
The Beirong mission must not have any accidents under any circumstances!
Seeing that he still couldn't get enough of it, Fang Zheng said in a deep voice, "Okay! You can't trust me, right?"
"Then let's not talk about Honglu Temple's newspaper. I can always take charge of the Banshan Daily."
"The location in the middle of the daily newspaper will be used by Honglu Temple for free for one year!"
Chen Hong's eyes lit up.
Banshan Daily is the most popular newspaper on the market.
Honglu Temple may not be able to sell well if it publishes its own newspaper, but it will definitely be better with the help of Banshan Daily!
Chen Hong gritted his teeth: "Three years!"
“A year and a half”
"Two years!"
"make a deal!"
After the matter was settled, Chen Hong also figured it out and said helplessly: "Okay!"
"But you have to promise me that you will never conflict with others!"
"Don't worry, I've been working with you all for so long, and I've always been kind to others."
