"This Bangladesh is really strange. They are very similar to our Yun Province. However, Yun Province has spring all year round, while Bangladesh has summer."
"Wouldn't it be too hot to death? It's not very comfortable on such a hot day." Some officials didn't like summer and shook their heads when they heard it.
"Oh? Doesn't that mean they don't need to wear cloaks and furs? Then doesn't their animal skins have no use?"
Su Yizhao burst out laughing when he heard this. Sir, your focus is really strange!
"Of course they don't use it, so when we came back this time, we also brought a lot of animal furs and horns. The imported products we brought include rhino horns, bear skins, hare skins, etc., which are all good things."
Mr. Zhao is like the stars over the moon. He is also eager to talk and answers all questions.
"Oh! It seems that the merchant ship has gained a lot this time out to sea!"
Everyone couldn't help but sigh for a while, and they all started to think about it, and planned to get involved in the merchant ships going out to sea later.
"In Bangladesh, both men and women can enter the market, not just civilians, but also nobles. Women don't have to wear curtains and can talk to men at will, and their behavior is quite casual!"
Mr. Zhao clicked his tongue twice, presumably because he was very dissatisfied with this behavior.
"Is there such a thing that is so immoral? You must not do this, it is offensive to morals!" As soon as this statement came out, everyone objected and strongly disagreed.
Su Yizhao snorted coldly, these people will accept it after a long time when Haishi opens.
Every habit changes gradually, and this is just the beginning.
"They don't have many good things, their country is small, and they don't have much knowledge. After our porcelain, cloth and tea were sent over, they were sold out immediately. Even the royal family was very novel about these and couldn't put them down!"
Everyone again marveled at how ignorant they were that despite their vast country, common porcelain, tea and other items were actually regarded as treasures.
"Then what are the specialties of this beautiful country? What are its customs and customs?"
"That's pretty much the same as ours, but it doesn't look very affluent over there. I went to their royal palace, and there was still dirt outside. How does it look like our palace? There are floor tiles and gold bricks everywhere?"
Everyone couldn't help but feel a sense of superiority. Some officials said: "Even our ministers don't have soil in their homes unless necessary."
"So, since their country has no money, they shouldn't be able to exchange it for anything valuable, right?" Su Wenzhou couldn't help but stepped forward and asked.
"Not at all, they have many specialties! Especially ginseng, which is a good thing, as well as yew tea sets, horses, ceramics, sesame oil and seaweed. Their horses are very strong, and they are all BMWs. This time
I brought a lot of horses when I came back."
Mr. Zhao was talking enthusiastically and began to describe it without waiting for anyone to ask.
"They were especially happy about the silk and satin we brought. The silk and satin over there are precious items. They are so happy to have so much silk and satin at once! Moreover, the colors of the cloth over there are extremely bright, and the women all wear red.
It's green and doesn't look very stable."
Mr. Zhao thought of the women of the beautiful country. There were many beauties, but they could not be mentioned in public.
"We still have exquisite embroidery here, but their side is rougher. Even the embroidery on women's clothes is less, but the clothes are beautiful and have a different flavor."
"Oh! What about the Kingdom of the Sun? How about the Kingdom of the Sun?" someone asked impatiently.
Just as Zhao Shiquan was about to say something, he heard the chamberlain singing "Here comes the emperor."
All the ministers immediately took their places to welcome the emperor's arrival.
The emperor first expressed condolences and rewarded the officials who went to sea with the ship, and then asked about the customs and customs of the Three Kingdoms.
"Your Majesty! This is the gift list presented by their king this time. Your Majesty, please take a look at it."
Zhao Shiquan immediately handed over the gift list, "Those countries were very enthusiastic and happy about our arrival, and the goods they brought were all sold out. They are very easy to sell."
Su Yizhao smiled. We haven't even reached those European countries yet! There are more good things there.
"Xu Luo, order someone to bring all the items above for me to take a look at."
The emperor had never seen so many foreign things, so he was very interested.
"What is this fattening thing?" the emperor asked with great interest.
Fattening? Su Yizhao immediately thought of coffee, maybe it was a literal translation from foreign language. No one in this dynasty understood foreign language, so he directly followed the transliteration.
"It is a bean similar to tea. After grinding it into powder, pour it into a cup with hot water and drink it directly." Zhao Shiquan explained.
"Oh! Isn't that just tea?" The emperor and his ministers suddenly realized, so they said.
"I would like to try their tea. Bring it to me first."
The two guards carried the beans up. Su Yizhao took a quick look and saw that they were just coffee beans. The scent of coffee beans could be heard before he even got there.
"It is said that beans were just discovered. They had just become popular in Bangladesh, so their king presented us with this novel species."
When the emperor saw a sack of beans with powder wrapped in paper next to it, he ordered his servants to make a cup for each of the ministers, and everyone had a taste.
Seeing everyone's eagerness to try, Su Yizhao wanted to laugh.
If you have never tasted the taste of this coffee before, you may not be able to accept it for the first time.
"Your Majesty, the taste of this fattening is a bit bitter." Zhao Shiquan reminded him immediately.
"Huh~ can there be some bitterness in tea?" The emperor waved his hand and didn't care.
Not long after, a cup of coffee was placed in front of the officials.
The emperor smelled the delicious smell, so he took a sip anxiously.
But as soon as he tasted it, the emperor almost spit it out.
It was so painful that the emperor frowned, and finally couldn't hold it back anymore and covered his mouth with the veil.
Su Yizhao was sure that he had vomited on the handkerchief.
"Your Majesty! You can also add sugar or sweetened milk to this food, which will make it taste better." Zhao Shiquan reminded again.
After hearing this, all the ministers curiously took a sip, but their expressions were confused. For a moment, the things in their mouths were either vomited or not.
How come there is something so unpleasant to drink? Are people in Bangladesh really unable to drink tea?
Poor Bangladeshis, such things can be regarded as treasures.
The ministers did not dare to behave inappropriately in front of the palace, so they could only endure it and drink it.
No one said anything after that, but they all pushed the thing away.
Su Yizhao took a sip and remembered the days when he worked overtime and drank coffee to refresh himself in his previous life.
I have been working for two months and I haven’t received my last month’s salary yet. It’s so miserable.
Everyone shook their heads and refused to drink. Only Su Yizhao took a few sips with a look of aftertaste on his face.
Upon seeing this, the emperor immediately said: "Su Aiqing, I think this fattening is very suitable for you, so I will reward you with half of it!"
After the emperor finished speaking, he couldn't wait to order Xu Luo to give half of it to Su Yizhao. He didn't want to drink this stuff anymore.
The rest was given to the concubines in the harem to prevent them from clamoring for rewards every day.
