high official

Chapter 109
"How do you know that I can help you?" Hei boy asked again, and the guards' eyes became awe-inspiring, but the handsome middle-aged man was not present yesterday.

"I don't know if you can help..." Wang Xian said with a wry smile, "But I know, you must be a big shot. I have nothing to do, so I can only go to the doctor in a hurry." Climbed and said: "I see that brother's appearance is unspeakable, and his righteousness is awe-inspiring. If you don't know about this kind of thing, it's fine. If you know it, how can you ignore it?"

"Hey..." Hei Xiaozi couldn't help but said, "Don't put a high hat on me, I'm just a Jinyi guard with a thousand households, my rank is lower than that of Yang, and you also said that my mission this trip is to escort, and I can't cause trouble No."

"This is causing trouble, this is upholding justice!" Wang Xian gave full play to the spirit of brown sugar, pestering Heizi and said. "Besides, Jin Yiwei is not the eyes and ears of the emperor, so he has the responsibility of arresting him!"

"Hehe..." Hei Xiaozi laughed and said, "You are talking about the Zhenfu Division. The Twelve Guards in Jinyi, and the Nanbei Zhenfu Division are only a part of them. I belong to the Luanyi Guard, and I only have the job of guarding, not the right to arrest. !"

"..." Listening to Hei boy's serious answer, Wang Xian almost fainted.He didn't expect this kid to be so difficult to deal with, he was as slippery as an old fritter, and it was so easy to catch him with some flaws, but he was cheeky and wiped them away—this kid's cheeks are too thick. The bearded man has revealed his secrets, but he still brazenly continues to impersonate Jinyi Qianhu...

Hei boy obviously didn't intend to entangle this matter any more, so he changed the subject and asked with a smile: "By the way, you just said, 'Being an official doesn't make decisions for the people, it's better to go home and sell sweet potatoes', what is this sweet potato?"

"It's sweet potatoes." Wang Xian turned his head angrily.

"What are sweet potatoes?"

"It's a potato."

"What is a potato?"

"Red sweet potato."

"Red sweet potato..."

"Caoguaru."

"..." Hei Xiaozi was completely speechless, but then smiled and said: "Being angry can't solve the problem, you talk to me well, maybe I'll help you when I'm happy."

"National affairs, how can it be trifling?" Wang Xian said aggrieved, bitter and depressed.

"I'm nosy because it depends on my mood." Hei boy looked up at the sky, and said with an expression of 'you are me': "I'm in a bad mood, who wants to meddle..." After speaking, he looked down and was stunned Stopped - I saw Wang Xian's eyes were shining with gold, and he looked obedient, and he almost hugged his thigh with both hands.

"Uh..." Hei Zi coldly said, "What's wrong with you?"

"What do you want to ask, my lord?" Wang Xian blinked quickly and said, "The villain will know everything."

"Get up first, sit down and talk." Hei boy distanced himself from him and said, "What is a sweet potato?"

"It's sweet potatoes, also called sweet potatoes." Wang Xian sat upright, flatteringly said: "Native to South America, it is a magical crop. It has strong adaptability and can grow in any field; it is easy to cultivate and only needs to cut a section." The vines are inserted into the soil, and a ladle of water is all it takes. Moreover, the harvest is guaranteed by drought and flood, it is resistant to diseases and insect pests, and the yield is astonishing, which is several times that of grain, and it can be used as a staple food to save the people from famine..."

"There is such a miraculous crop in the world?" Hei Xiaozi couldn't believe it: "If all the land in my Ming Dynasty were replaced with sweet potatoes, wouldn't there be no famine anymore?"

"Uh..." Wang Xian couldn't help weeping when he thought that Daming would switch to planting all sweet potatoes, eating roasted sweet potatoes, steamed sweet potatoes, steamed sweet potatoes with sweet potato noodles, and sweet potato buns... What a sad world this is.But the trick of fooling you is to exaggerate the curative effect. He nodded heavily and said: "Yeah, that's why the common people in South America don't work. They wear gold and silver all day long, sing and dance, drink cocoa and smoke, and are hungry. I baked two sweet potatoes, it was a day like a fairy."

"Won't you get tired of eating sweet potatoes?" Hei boy was dumbfounded, but he didn't lose his judgment.

"If you're tired, change to roasted corn and peppers..." Wang Xian said calmly, "There are also tomatoes, pumpkins and so on..."

"What is cocoa? Why do you smoke cigarettes? And what do peppers, tomatoes, and pumpkins look like?" The black boy turned into a curious baby.

"Cocoa is a fragrant and delicious drink, and it can also be made into chocolate. After a bite, it will leave a fragrance on your lips and teeth, and you will feel happy in your heart." Very tempting, "As for the chili pepper, it is even more miraculous. After taking a bite, it feels like burning your mouth. It can make people sweat profusely, but it is very appetizing, making you want to eat more..."

Not to mention Hei kid, even the guards listened with great interest, and didn't realize that middle-aged handsome guy came in from outside.

When Wang Xian's mouth was dry and he drank water to moisten his throat, Hei boy realized that there was someone more in the room. He clapped his palms and smiled and said, "Haha, the master is back, and it's time to check the authenticity." The young man said: "Uncle Ma, is it true what he said about sweet potatoes, tomatoes, cigarettes that can be smoked, and cocoa that can be soaked and drunk? Why have you never heard of it?"

"I've never heard of it..." Uncle Ma shook his head and said.

"It seems that you are bragging." Hei Xiaozi looked at Wang Xian with a chuckle and said, "My Uncle Ma took... er, took Jin Yiwei to protect Eunuch Zheng on a voyage to the West. You can't compare him with his knowledge and experience." .”

Without waiting for Wang Xian to answer, Uncle Ma said leisurely: "But the ocean is vast and the world is boundless. The places I have been to are only a small part, and even this small part is just scratching the surface and I haven't studied it deeply." After a while, he smiled and said: "So I haven't seen it, so I can't say it doesn't exist."

"Where you have never been, no one in my Ming Dynasty has been there; what you have not seen, no one in my Ming Dynasty has seen it." Hei boy really admired Uncle Ma.

"Hehe, little friend, where did the things you mentioned come from?" Uncle Ma was more interested in learning about the unknown than bragging about his own experience.

"South America."

"Where is it?" Uncle Ma asked, "Is it over there in Nanyang?"

"No, it's going east." Wang Xian pointed to the east and said, "Follow the Suzhou Creek and enter the sea. If you go [-] miles east, you will see the American continent. The things I just mentioned are all produced in South America."

"How do you know?" Hei Zi asked in disbelief, "Could it be that you have been out to sea? Crossed thirty thousand miles of ocean, been to America, and seen those things?"

"Uh..." Wang Xian knew that he couldn't tell a lie. With the ability of the other party, he could find out his own details by just checking casually.I could only vaguely say: "I don't know what's going on, these things seem to be imprinted in my mind."

"Could it be that you are born knowing it?" Hei kid laughed.There are too many things that cannot be explained in this era, and people's tolerance for anecdotes is naturally higher.

"Almost." Wang Xian nodded without shame and said, "But I don't remember very clearly."

"Hehe..." At this time, Uncle Ma kindly rescued Wang Xian: "My lord, don't ask the bottom line. Didn't you ask him to come here to ask about the Insect Classic?"

"Don't tell me I almost forgot." Hei boy slapped his head, stopped asking about the Arabian Nights, pulled Wang Xian and said, "Hurry up, continue talking about the Insect Sutra, where did you talk about it yesterday?" Naturally, Wang Xian agreed .

Hei boy seemed to be in a hurry, and he didn't even have time to eat. He listened to Wang Xian's talk until dark, and then he recorded all aspects of playing cricket.Carefully put away the thick pile of manuscript paper, Hei boy was satisfied to let Wang Xian go home.

As for the matter of helping, even though Wang Xian made insinuations, he talked about him without giving a single word.Hanging a Wang Xian in the air, not going up or down... For a while, he speculated that the black boy was trying to help, but for a while he didn't feel like it. Maybe no matter how high the other party's status was, he didn't want to provoke Hanwang's subordinates, right?
Wang Xian tossed and turned all night, experiencing the pain of having his fate in someone else's hands... As a result, he suffered from insomnia.Waking up with dark circles under his eyes the next day, Wang Xian felt confused for a while, he didn't know what to do.

Seeing that he was a little depressed, Lin Qing'er made him a cup of fragrant tea, and brought her brother's guqin to play for him to relieve his boredom.

The sound of the zither Cong Cong floated leisurely from the room of the two of them, echoing in the courtyard.Even Shuaihui and Erhei, the rough men, were deeply intoxicated, and they couldn't help talking softly:

"You said this time, is there any drama?" Shuai Hui asked in a low voice.

"Hanging." Erhei said in a muffled voice.

"I think so too," Shuai Hui nodded and said, "The people in the Yan Division don't even give face to the feudal officials and the generals, it's simply unbelievable."

"It's not surprising." Erhei said indifferently: "Last year, Zhou Jietai used his lord's strategy to leave the city of Yansi. The boss doesn't hold any grudges? This time, the boss surnamed Yang will not object to what he did, but will force him secretly. Quite... I feel that this subordinate is too interesting, and I still remember to avenge the boss."

"You are thinking in a fool." Shuai Hui didn't believe it.

"Is there a difference?" Er Hei Hei glanced at him and said, "Adults often say that the official world is dangerous. It can be seen that officials are some high-level gangsters."

"Uh..." Shuai Hui seemed to be right after thinking about it, so he stopped pestering him and said, "The one surnamed Yang dare not sell the accounts of feudal vassals and ordinary Taiwanese, and our lord's accounts will definitely be ignored..."

"Nonsense." Erhei nodded.

"Then this time, shouldn't it be a scandal?" Shuai Hui said with a pale face, "The old master can only sell the fields that the peasants have worked so hard for several months, and sell them at a low price for food?"

"Otherwise, the common people have to sell the fields, so it's better for the government to sell them." Erhei's face, which was always incomprehensible, finally showed displeasure: "Before I came, my father said that for thousands of years, the I don't believe that there is no county magistrate who can defeat the squires. Only now do I know that my father is so damn insightful!"

The two were talking, when they heard a knock on the door, Shuai Hui hurriedly slapped his ass and got up to open the door, and saw a meat ball in a silk robe, with a drunken nose, standing at the door with a big smile on his face.
