  Chapter 489 The Poetry-Reciting Couple Cleverly Matching (14th Update)

  Suharo described to the ministers a kingdom full of gold and spices.

  The general of the Xiaoqi camp said: "My Dayan has a vast territory, vast land and rich resources. You Annan is just a small country, how dare you speak nonsense here, and gold is everywhere? If this is the case, why do you only have that little black bean when you enter the palace?"

Suharo's face turned pale from choking, and he scratched his struggling hair, "I brought a lot of agarwood, but they were all taken away by pirates. Only coffee beans, they don't know what to buy survived."

   "Then tell me, what is the use of the little black beans?"

  Actually, An Nanguo discovered coffee beans, raised civet cats, and artificially planted coffee trees. It is only a matter of recent years, and his understanding of coffee beans is still at an extremely superficial stage.

  Suharo couldn't tell, but for some reason, he believed that someone would understand.

  He looked at Baicaoshi for help. He once stopped Baicaoshi's carriage and willingly offered the only remaining sack of coffee beans.

  All the ministers looked at each other in blank dismay. Everyone knew that she was a medical girl, and now she founded a university. Oh, and once held a fireworks fair on the Empress Dowager’s birthday. They don't believe it.

  The queen mother smiled at this time: "Shishi brewed hand-ground wolfberry civet cat health coffee for Aijia before. Aijia is not used to drinking it, but the fruit pie is very good."

   Regardless of whether you are used to it or not, the long list of names is indeed quite bluffing.

  From the emperor to the ministers, they are all waiting for an explanation of Baicao Poetry.

  In the modern world, coffee is a world-class beverage alongside tea, and it contains a huge industrial chain value. However, with the current productivity and consumption power, coffee is still difficult to popularize, and it may take a long process of market cultivation for ordinary people to drink coffee.

However, Baicaoshi is still seeking truth from facts, "Your Majesty, Queen Mother, Shishi once read the record of coffee trees and coffee beans in a prophecy book. It can be made into high-end drinks like tea and enrich people's daily life. Coffee It can be refreshing, and the students who are studying hard can drink a cup and study for an extra hour. It is not a good thing to accompany the coffee, the fragrance of the coffee, but I secretly think that the real value of coffee is not Here it is."

  The narration of Baicao Poetry is very graphic, but it has aroused the interest of some courtiers. Besides, what else does coffee do?

"Foreign export trade. Your Majesty, I heard from Xianggong that when the previous dynasty was strong, merchants from various countries gathered in the capital, among which Persia and Dashi were the most powerful, and they had a great demand for spices and coffee. It's just because of the different geology and phenology there." , it is difficult to grow spices and coffee beans in large quantities. If we can open up trade routes and realize the export of spices and coffee, it will definitely increase the revenue of the treasury.”

  Subsequently, Zheyu explained the benefits of foreign trade and export, which can be summed up as "enhancing our country's prestige, spreading the culture of Dayan, exchanging commodities, opening up trade channels, and making Dayan's economy even better."

  However, these prerequisites are to help Annan Kingdom to quell civil strife.

   So far, Bu Zhan's reward and Bu Zhan's request for a marriage seem to have been forgotten.

  Emperor Yanwu was contemplating. He was very interested in spices and coffee, but sending an army thousands of miles to aid An'an would require a large amount of military supplies.

At this time, Bu Zhan said, "Your Majesty, I am willing to lead five thousand soldiers. Compared with His Royal Highness Feng Wang, who can pass through the pirates' blockade, quell the civil strife in Annan, and bring back agarwood and coffee beans for your majesty. If you win , Your Majesty, please allow me to marry Miss Xu."

  As soon as these words came out, Bu Jingwei was the first to panic, he was simply crazy. Five thousand soldiers just wanted to quell the chaos, and Annan, who was still unfamiliar with the place where he was born, is still unknown whether he can come back alive.

   King Zhenbei was also annoyed, his face was darker than Zhang Fei. "Master Xiaobu, you just want to go to war as a scholar? Are you talking about war on paper? Why do you fight?"

   It was his precious daughter Xu Ruoran who answered him, "Father, you have so many elite soldiers and powerful generals, can't you borrow one or two from Mr. Xiaobu? He is not afraid of any literati, are you afraid of a few pirates?"

  This straightforward aggressive method.

   King Zhenbei blew his beard, pointed at Bu Zhan's nose and asked, "I ask you, if you can't come back in one year or two years, will my daughter still wait for you?"

  Xu Ruoran was willing, she looked at Bu Zhan with reverence and admiration.

  War is a trifling matter, and long voyages cannot guarantee smooth sailing. If there is a mistake, a storm and a reef, life will be gone.

   Ying Zhefeng's eyes flickered. He had been assigned to Leizhou by his father, and he had gone through this long journey, knowing how hard it was, but Bu Zhan actually took the initiative to invite Ying. He couldn't figure it out, why would someone be willing to take something that was obviously very bitter?

At this time, Zhe Yu said: "Your Majesty, Lord Zhenbei and Master Xu, everyone may wish to read the "Da Yan Fengwu Zhi" in your spare time. Starting from Yanjing, take the land road to Lingnan Quanzhou, and go south by sea. Master Xiaobu has walked the road. Shishi once told me that there is no road to go in vain in life, and every step counts. I only understand now."

   As the saying goes, there is nothing new under the sun. When Jingwei refused to recognize his son and refused to allow the bookstore to publish his books, everyone was still deeply impressed. But now, these roads that have been traveled have become Bu Zhan's precious wealth and an important bargaining chip in marrying the princess.

   "As for the candidate to quell the chaos, I have to recommend someone." Zhe Yu continued.

  The person recommended by Oruha is Ochonou.

  He used to have ambitions in his chest, but he never wanted to be randomly selected by Ying Zhezhe and become the princess. There is nowhere to show your talents. And now, the vast sea will be his new journey.

  When Da Chonglou walked into the palace, Ying Zhezhe felt his heart beating. The figure and manner seemed familiar, but the face was unfamiliar.

  Emperor Yanwu publicly decided on the candidate to quell the chaos. However, it will take time to raise the military supplies, and it is tentatively planned to set off in one month.

  **

  Actually, everything at today's banquet was planned by Zhe Yu and Baicaoshi.

  Baicaoshi has long planned to go overseas to search for agarwood. The caravan of Wen Xiang's family knew a route to avoid pirates, but it had to go farther.

   Bu Zhan is a born traveler, with rich travel knowledge and survival skills. He and Xu Ruoran have met each other these days, and they share the same goals, and the two even made an appointment to travel famous mountains and rivers together.

  The sea is another experience.

  Although there is danger in this, Xu Ruoran is a tiger girl who has read military books on her father's lap since she was a child. Bu Zhan is naturally a guide, a living map, and a large building with a high force value, so Annan's trip may not be impossible.

   On the second day, Baicaoshi met Xu Ruoran at the wandering Yingti.

   The two greet each other out of etiquette, but they are actually exchanging code words.

   "What happened yesterday, thank you for dealing with your husband."

  Baicaoshi is very interested in Xu Ruoran. When she first met her, she was with the Seventh Princess. The rich lady has a temperament and is not pleasing. However, every time she meets, Xu Ruoran changes, until she meets Bu Zhan, she has become a courageous woman who is desperate for love.

   "Are you sure? It's bad for your reputation." Baicaoshi asked.

Xu Ruoran wrinkled his nose, and said, "Bu Lang is in his twenties, he should have a home. As soon as he leaves for Annan, I will follow. Since I am destined to marry him, why don't I be with him sooner?" How about together?"

  Baicaoshi thought of a classic line from an ancient novel. "If you are destined to be my girlfriend, why don't I exercise my rights early."

  However, this is even more difficult for Xu Ruoran, because it is tantamount to elopement, and someone will poke the spine, and Xu Ruoran is fearless.

  Baicaoshi smiled brilliantly, "Miss Xu, you are fine. Bu Zhan is lucky to meet you."

  Xu Ruoran's mouth slightly raised, Zhe Yu was lucky to meet Baicaoshi, she is such a transparent and sober woman, which is rare in the world.

   "Ma'am, are you still unwilling to tell me the truth? The person who is a guest at Mose Bookstore is you, right?"
