Chapter 20
Wang Deng had sent people to post notices in advance and set up several tables on the street, and the sales could start when they arrived.

Soon Zhao Jun came to Xianyang City with Wang Deng Xuanyang and a lot of tomatoes.

"Zhao Nvshi, Zhao Nvshi"

Not long after entering the city, a man stopped Zhao Jun.

The man was about 30 years old, looked quite young, tall and resolute in appearance, but he didn't feel chilling all over his body, he didn't look like a soldier.

"you are?"

Zhao Jun asked suspiciously, the person who can call her name on the street should be someone from the palace.

But didn't the king say to send people to maintain order, just one?Doesn't look very capable?
"Ms. Zhao Shi'an, I'm Meng Yi, the king asked me to come." The man smiled politely and nodded slightly.

"Oh, hello, you are Meng Yi."

Zhao Jun suddenly nodded, and looked at him again.

This is Meng Yi. The Meng family is well-known in Qin State and even in history. His father and grandfather are both great generals of Qin State. His brother Meng Tian is also a famous general of his generation. Although this Meng Yi is not as famous as them, he is also close to Qin Shihuang. Famous civil servants.

"Only you?"

Zhao Jun glanced at him a few times, he was the only civil servant, didn't Meng Tian come?

"Yes, it's just me. At the beginning, the king wanted to send another team of captains, but I think there is already a team of captains here. Safety should not be a problem. In addition, today is a sale, so it may be more necessary. My help."

Meng Yi spoke slowly, which did not match his resolute appearance.

"So that's the case, then you go with us."

Zhao Jun and the others stayed for a while and then walked towards the sales office with Meng Yi.

"These tomatoes were grown by Ms. Zhao. Today, the king sent people to distribute them to the ministers of the court. Many people think they are delicious. I am afraid that today's sales are also competing for it."

On the way, Meng Yi spoke up.

"It has been sent to you. The taste is really good. It will definitely attract people to fight for it, so each person is limited to two catties."

"So that's the case, Zhao Nvshi has already thought about it so thoughtfully."

Meng Yi looked back and saw that everyone was carrying a big frame, and there were a lot of them by visual inspection.

Soon they arrived at the place, and there were already many onlookers.

The soldiers put the frame behind one by one, Zhao Jun had already told them on the way here.

Five people stood at the front to hand out, the people behind handed it over, and someone next to him collected the money, and the rest of the soldiers stood by and organized everyone to line up.

Zhao Jun stood on a high place next to him and shouted loudly

"This is a tomato. It can be eaten raw or cold. One person can buy two catties for only one dollar. Come and taste it."

The line has already started to line up, Zhao Jun said over and over again at the top of his voice.

"Everyone, try to see if it's delicious. If it's delicious, the government will give you free seeds to plant in the future. You can plant it in front of or behind your house, so it's easy to feed yourself."

The crowd was moving, and there were all kinds of chaotic voices. Although the order was good, it would take a lot of effort for Mr. Zhao to let everyone hear it.

"Each person only has two catties. Take it back and eat it quickly. It can't be stored. It will go bad after three days and you can't eat it."

She looked at the queue and still shouted at the top of her voice, but after a while she felt that her voice couldn't take it anymore.

Suddenly, a thick male voice came from the side, the voice was louder and spread farther.

Zhao Jun turned his head to see Meng Yi, and a relaxed smile appeared on his face.

It turns out that his role is here, and I have to say that with Meng Yi's share, Zhao Jun is much more relaxed.

Zhao Jun, who was free, had time to see the situation of the team.

The long queue was lined up in an orderly manner. Almost all of them were wearing coarse clothes, with thin bodies, old people and children, and few young people.

The overall mental outlook is not bad, but it can be seen that life is not too rich, let alone those remote counties in Xianyang.

Looking at the crowded crowd, Zhao Jun suddenly felt a sense of loss in his chest.

Many times she does these things just to make her life better, or for Ying Zheng's request.

But when you really see the suffering in this world, your heart seems to soften suddenly.

You can feel that you have the ability to change them, to make a difference for everyone here in the future.

After a while Zhao Jun shook his head, he really was.

Why think so much, try to change the world.

Soon most of the people bought tomatoes, and the number of people in the team gradually decreased.

Many people stood on the road and did not leave directly. Although the official uniform said that this kind of food was edible, they had never seen it before, and they still had doubts in their hearts.

Coincidentally, the delivery was almost finished, and Zhao Jun directly gave each of them one after working hard for a long time, letting them quench their thirst and rest.

Those who hadn't left felt relieved when they saw that they ate immediately, and many of them also took one out to taste.

Immediately, they were shocked by the taste of tomatoes.

Some people who didn't buy it saw someone tasted it, and then burst into amazing shouts, it was so delicious.

Then those people ran away quickly. Of course, such a delicious thing had to be taken home quickly.

"Don't worry about the ones you haven't bought. There will be another batch in two days. I will inform everyone at that time, and they are still here."

Zhao Jun said to some people, telling them not to be too sad.

However, everyone has tasted it this time, and the queue next time may be longer.

"Everyone has worked hard today, you can go back and rest."

Zhao Jun said hello to Xuan Yang and Wang Deng, let them take people back first.

"Mr. Meng, I've worked hard today. Without you, I'm afraid I'd be speechless now." She smiled and said to Meng Yi who was beside her.

"Where, Mrs. Zhao is polite."

Meng Yi politely raised his hands in a bow, his expression was as usual.

"Won't Lady Zhao go back to the palace?"

He asked suspiciously, the others had already left.

"There is still some time, I want to go around Xianyang City and go back later."

I've been busy with patronage for most of the day, and Zhao Jun still wants to take a stroll around Xianyang City after this meeting is over.

"Well, then I'll accompany Nv Shi for a stroll. Now that there is no one around Nv Shi, I'm afraid it's not safe. Your Majesty asked me to come to protect Nv Shi's safety."

Hearing that she didn't go back to Gong Mengyi, he didn't dare to leave first, so he also walked around with her.

Zhao Jun nodded and agreed, it would be good if someone followed, after all, she didn't know the way.

And so she started wandering aimlessly.

A part of today's Xianyang is Xi'an of later generations, but the prosperity is incomparable.

Along the way, most of the houses in the city are made of wood, most people wear rough clothes, and there are also some commodity shops, but the prices are high and there are few customers.

Most of them are people walking around the streets with shoulder poles, some sell pancakes, and some don't know what they are selling.

Xianyang City is not big, especially there are no shops, and Zhao Jun finished shopping in a short while.

It's still early. Could it be that he's going back to the palace?
