Royal Gold Medal County Magistrate

After a hearty chat, Pabha's impression of Li Yuanzhao was once again turned upside down.

Fang Zheng was already losing interest in listening.

Li Yuanzhao's set of ideas was simply pure idealism, making decisions on a whim. It sounds beautiful, but doing it would be miserable.

Based on his experience, there would be no good results at all.

Officials like Pabha who could be sent to foreign countries were definitely seasoned veterans.

How could they be so easily fooled?

What really impressed him was that he had never heard of advanced concepts like microorganisms.

He had absolutely no experience with this.

He could only let Li Yuanzhao, who was also a half-baked expert, bluff him.

This was like an experienced middle-aged and elderly person being lectured by a young person.

Talking about the health benefits of quantum medicine. Although he didn't understand what he was saying at all, he just felt it was very impressive.

At this time, Fang Zheng's attention had completely shifted to Zhang Biao.

During their conversation, the dishes on the table had been almost completely swept away.

Brother Biao picked up five dishes with one chopstick, looking at Chi Lie provocatively.

This unique skill shocked him.

Obviously, the Bei Rong people were not very good at using chopsticks, but Chi Lie was not willing to be outdone, and directly poured half a bowl of rice into his mouth.

Fang Zheng felt choked just looking at it.

These two people were so competitive that they didn't even care about their faces. They even had to compete while eating.

Pabha listened with a dry mouth, as if a door to a new world had been opened for him.

After drinking a glass of wine, he wanted to pick up a dish to eat, but the delicacies on the table had already been swept away.

He was stunned on the spot with his chopsticks in hand.

Seeing this, Fang Zheng shouted loudly: "Waiter! Bring another table!"

Then he looked at Pabha and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that the warrior Chi Lie has such a large appetite. Don't be polite today, this official is the host, you must eat to your heart's content!"

Pabha glanced at Zhang Biao and said with a smile: "Chi Lie is a natural fierce general, and his appetite is indeed a bit large. He can eat a cow in one meal! But this brave man is also good."

What bullshit are you talking about? Eating a cow in one meal, you fucking eat one and let me see!

Fang Zheng cursed secretly in his heart, but he didn't say much.

Li Yuanzhao was also holding chopsticks, his eyes constantly wandering in the empty plate.

Seeing that there was really nothing to pick up, he put down his chopsticks and quietly sized up Chi Lie.

After looking for a while, he suddenly showed a mysterious smile.

At this time, Zhang Laoliu was busy serving new dishes, and the bowls and dishes on the table were also replaced.

Just as Fang Zheng was picking up a dish to eat, Li Yuanzhao suddenly tugged at his sleeve.

He whispered: "Lao Fang, you said this guy is so tall... how long must his be?"

Fang Zheng's face suddenly wrinkled, and he whispered angrily: "We're eating, can you not say such disgusting things!"

"Aren't you curious?"

Hearing this, Fang Zheng couldn't help but glance at Chi Lie.

Damn it! I'm curious!

"Ahem! Master, how about taking a bath after dinner?"

Li Yuanzhao secretly gave a thumbs up.

Pabha was stunned: "Bathe?"

"Ah, yes, bathe! In our Da Jing, from high-ranking officials to ordinary people, everyone likes to chat and talk about things while bathing."

"This is a necessary means to enhance feelings. Only when two people are naked can they see each other sincerely. How do you feel?"

Pabha already felt a little confused at this time.

What he had seen and heard along the way was completely different from what he had imagined!

Do Jing people still have this custom? Talking about things while bathing... it seems a bit indecent.

However, looking at the Prince's performance, he didn't seem to show any abnormality.

That means there's no problem!

Pabha turned his head and asked Chi Lie for his opinion, and then nodded in agreement: "Okay, then everything will be arranged by His Royal Highness the Prince and Lord Fang!"

Seeing that he agreed, Fang Zheng and Li Yuanzhao smiled at each other.

After a long while, everyone was full and ready to pay the bill and leave.

Zhang Laoliu walked over with a flattering smile, holding the bill in his hand: "Several masters, this meal was quite a lot. This old man has handwritten a bill, please take a look!"

Fang Zheng took the bill and glanced at it, and immediately said angrily: "Damn it! More than a thousand taels! Are we eating gold?! Are you trying to mess with me?!"

Zhang Laoliu's guts were fat enough, letting you rip people off, and you're hacking at my waist!

"I'm wronged! Lord! Please listen to me explain!" Zhang Laoliu immediately squeezed out an ugly face, "Our restaurant uses the best ingredients, and the chefs are also the best. You ate four tables... the price is naturally a bit expensive."

"The most important thing is... the mahogany tables and chairs and teapots and teacups in my shop are all antiques!!! And this floor is also broken, I haven't even counted that!"

Fang Zheng looked at Pabha embarrassedly and said: "Well, what you said makes some sense, but it's too expensive, where are there such expensive antiques?"

"What I said is all true!"

Fang Zheng took a deep breath, touched his chest, a hint of red appeared on his face, and said vaguely: "More than a thousand taels is still too expensive! In my opinion, let's make it a thousand taels, and I'll owe it first! I'll settle the bill for you later!"

Zhang Laoliu knelt down suddenly, kowtowing three times with a loud bang, and cried out loudly: "No! Lord! This is a small business... please have mercy on me!"

This cry, the fullness of emotion, the misery of the voice, was simply heartbreaking and tear-jerking.

Fang Zheng quickly asked Li Yuanzhao and others in a low voice: "Your Highness, do you have any money? I didn't bring any money, lend me some to tide me over!"

Li Yuanzhao shook his head.

Zhang Biao shook his head.

Lu Fa shook his head.

Everyone's performance was taken into Pabha's eyes, and Fang Zheng's voice was not loud or small, just enough to reach his ears.

To be honest, he didn't want to pay a thousand taels either. The number on the bill was painful to hear.

Not to mention this life, he couldn't imagine anyone spending a thousand taels on a meal in the next life!

But the matter had come to this, it seemed that only he could pay.

Pabha got up and walked to Zhang Laoliu's front: "Okay, don't shout, I'll pay."

Fang Zheng immediately said anxiously: "No! How can I let you pay, Master! If outsiders hear about it, they will think that Da Jing is not hospitable!"

As he spoke, he secretly stretched out his hand and made a five to Zhang Laoliu.

Zhang Laoliu immediately understood: "Ah... several masters, I forgot."

"Our restaurant is the top restaurant in the capital, and VIPs get half price for meals, but the VIP treatment is charged monthly."

"Usually, it costs ten taels per person per month. This is the first time you have come, six taels for the first month! You can pay five hundred and six taels!"

Fang Zheng glared at Zhang Laoliu.

Damn it, six taels for the first month! I'm really convinced by you, Lao Liu!

Cutting off half of it with this knife, Pabha immediately felt much better.

"Lord Fang doesn't have to decline, it's an honor to have dinner with His Royal Highness the Prince and you."

Fang Zheng gritted his teeth and said with embarrassment: "Alright! I'll treat this money as a loan from you, Master, and I'll send it to you another day!"

Pabha said with a smile: "Lord Fang is too polite. If you really have the heart, why not help me buy some Da Pin Tian Xian tea."

"I am quite interested in tea."

Looking at Pabha's naive appearance, Fang Zheng suddenly felt a little unbearable.

"You're too kind, Master! If I have the chance, I'll get you a couple more pounds!"
