The moment Qin Yun entered Eastern City, he saw Ying Zheng and Meng Yi waiting at the place where he had set up his stall the day before.
Qin Yun immediately changed from jogging to walking slowly. He walked to Ying Zheng's side with an indifferent expression.
"The morning sun is quite bright today.”
Qin Yun put down the table and turned to ask with a smile,""Isn't it?"
Ying Zheng was slightly startled. Was the morning sun very bright today?
Looking up at the rising sun, Ying Zheng nodded and said with a smile,""The morning sun today is indeed very bright.”
Qin Yun did not say another word. After leisurely setting up the stall, he gestured with his right hand."Esteemed guest, please take a seat.”
After sitting on the soft couch in front of Qin Yun, Ying Zheng's evaluation of Qin Yun increased.
With a baffling statement, Qin Yun had easily snatched the initiative.
If it was someone else who was faced with such a situation, they would have said their intentions after thanking him.
But who was he?
He was Qin Shihuang!
How could he be willing to be led by others?
Therefore, Ying Zheng did not speak after he sat down. All he did was look at Qin Yun quietly.
However, he never expected Qin Yun to be in no hurry. Instead, he took out a clay pot, two clay bowls, and a bamboo tube from his basket. He then went to ask for some hot water from the pavilion officials patrolling the eastern market.
Using a bamboo piece to take out some tea leaves from the bamboo tube, Qin Yun skillfully brewed two cups of tea.
Pushing a teacup in front of Ying Zheng, Qin Yun said with a smile,""Esteemed guest, please."
Ying Zheng picked up his teacup and took a look, then shook his head and said with a smile,""Gentleman Qin is too stingy with his tea.”
During the Qin Dynasty, there were already a few people who used tea as a soup to get rid of the heat. They began to drink tea, and they would even add ginger, garlic, and other herbs.
However, the tea that Qin Yun pushed over was clear and clear. There were only a few tea leaves and nothing else. It was completely different from all the tea that Ying Zheng had seen.
Qin Yun said with a faint smile," Tea is like a person. What you hear may not be true. What you see may not be true.”
"Only by personally tasting it can one taste all of it.”
"Oh?"
"Then I'll give it a try!" Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes.”
Meng Yi was anxious when he saw this.”
Even in the royal palace, the food that Ying Zheng ate had to be carefully checked and tested for poison before it could enter his mouth.
As a doctor, how could he allow Ying Zheng to drink the soup brought by an unknown person in the market?
"No worries!" Ying Zheng waved his hand.
As soon as he finished speaking, Ying Zheng brought the teacup to his mouth and took a sip.
As the tea entered his lips, Ying Zheng frowned slightly, but then relaxed his brows in satisfaction.
"It tastes slightly bitter in the mouth, but it's sweet after. I didn't expect tea to have such a taste.”
Qin Yun also took a sip of tea and said lightly,""The flavor of tea is like life."
"With Brother Zheng's experience, you can naturally taste all kinds of flavors.”
Ying Zheng's hand, which was holding the teacup, paused for a moment, and a look of recollection appeared in his eyes.
In his life, wasn't it like tea, bitter at first and sweet later?
After recollecting his past, Ying Zheng looked at Qin Yun solemnly.""Gentleman Qin, do you know who I am?"
Qin Yun was delighted.
As long as one was old and had some family background, most people liked to reminisce about the past. They would feel that their life was bitter before it was sweet.
This had nothing to do with whether they had really suffered. It was just a human's psychological feeling.
Qin Yun had spent a lot of effort to produce the tea leaves to complement his speech. He wanted the customers to mistakenly believe that Qin Yun had seen through their past!
Today, the first battle of tea leaves was declared a victory!
Qin Yun said casually," Is it important who you are?”
"The person sitting in front of me is Brother Zheng.”
Ying Zheng was startled, then he nodded with a smile and said,""That's right. The one sitting in front of Gentleman Qin is only the merchant administration.”
Ying Zheng was patient, but Qin Yun was even more patient when facing a big client.
After listening to Qin Yun ramble on about the benefits of tea for almost two hours, as well as being stared at by the girls in line with murderous gazes, Ying Zheng finally could not help but say,""I've thought about what Gentleman Qin said yesterday for a long time and deeply agree with it.”
"I came today to thank you, Sir Qin.”
While speaking, Ying Zheng waved his hand, and Meng Yi unwillingly handed over another gold ingot.
Qin Yun chuckled." You and I are fated. I was just casually saying a few words.”
"Brother Zheng, why do you need to do this?"
Ying Zheng laughed in his heart.
Why did he have to do this?
When he didn't pay, he was your subordinate. After he paid, he was Brother Zheng.
If you really didn't care about money, would you be like this?
However, Ying Zheng was not afraid of Qin Yun seeking wealth. He was afraid that Qin Yun had no desires!
As long as there was something he wanted, Ying Zheng was confident that he could grasp it in his hands.
Ying Zheng cupped his hands and said,"This is a ritual that cannot be abandoned."”
"Today, this Zheng has come to ask Gentleman Qin for advice on another matter.”
Qin Yun was delighted. He had not waited for two hours in vain!
If this person came a few more times, he would probably be able to buy a house in Xianyang City within this month.
Qin Yun extended his right hand." Brother Zheng, feel free to speak!”
Ying Zheng cupped his hands again." I have some land in the south of the city. But now that spring plowing is imminent, it has not rained or snowed in Chang 'an Village for several months.”
"May I ask Gentleman Qin if you can predict when rain will fall in Xianyang City? This will allow me to make early preparations.”
With that said, Ying Zheng looked at Qin Yun expectantly.
Ying Zheng still had some doubts about Qin Yun's abilities.
After all, the military strategists could still suggest the method of building a canal to help the southern expedition.
And calculating the rain was another test of Ying Zheng's abilities against Qin Yun!
