Chapter 683 Entering the Tea Shop Again

"Li Hu, can you speak Goguryeo language?"

After Li Xuan walked into the tea shop, he asked directly.

Li Hu was startled, but still subconsciously raised his hands in salute.

"I have met a noble person, and the little person knows Goguryeo. Not only the little person knows it, but all the shopkeepers and waiters in the tea shop can also speak Goguryeo!"

"That's good!"

Li Xuan nodded slightly and walked in.

"Where is your private room here?"

"Elegant room?"

Li Hu was startled, and then a flash of excitement flashed in his eyes. He must have known that the people looking for a private room in the tea shop with such familiarity must be regular customers of the tea shop.

And since he is a regular customer, he is a wealthy person!

He quickly pointed to Li Xuan an exquisite room inside and said, "Your honor, please come this way!"

"Um!"

Li Xuan nodded slightly and walked straight in with the Goguryeo man.

The Goguryeo man on the side quickly followed him with a embarrassed look on his face.

He had only heard how people outside talked about the luxury and exquisiteness of this Datang tea shop before, but he had never come in.

I never knew that there are shops in the world that can be decorated so luxuriously and beautifully. Even the cabinets where tea leaves are placed are made of exquisite glass.

Just such a small tea shop can be compared to the mansions of some powerful people in the city!

At the same time, my heart became more active.

If this noble man of the Tang Dynasty was so familiar with such a luxurious shop, he would definitely be able to afford a high price!

And he will definitely buy more food for his family this time, and even get a few pieces of good cloth!

On the side, Li Hu, who was about to follow Li Xuan in, suddenly felt someone pulling him behind him.

When he turned around, he saw that the guard who had been following the noble man took out a fish charm from his pocket!

Li Hu trembled. He saw the word Jin in the lower left corner of the fish charm at a glance!

Suddenly, he thought of the man who was leading the troops in the city. He raised his head in disbelief, looked at Zheng Fu in front of him, pointed at the word Jin with his finger, and said in a trembling voice: "May I ask the general, who is this noble man?"

"Stop your voice and call the shopkeeper here to come and serve you!"

Zheng Fu said coldly.

"Yes Yes……"

Li Hutong's hole instantly enlarged and he said quickly.

Immediately, he hurriedly ran upstairs!

His face was full of excitement.

This tea shop has two floors, upper and lower.

Generally, only truly noble people or distinguished guests of tea shops can be invited into the private rooms on the second floor.

As the shopkeeper of a shop, he spends at least half of the day entertaining guests in the private room on the second floor.

Today, a distinguished guest from the city happened to come to the tea shop to buy tea.

Therefore, the shopkeeper Cui Gongming stayed with him on the second floor.

However, at this moment, Li Hu didn't care about being rude and ran to the second floor quickly.

He gently knocked on the small door of the private room twice, suppressed the excitement in his heart, and shouted in a low voice: "Sir, there is a distinguished guest downstairs, and I need you to go down and receive it in person!"

In the private room, Cui Gongming, who was accompanying an old man in rich clothes with a sullen smile on his face, suddenly turned cold.

"Come in and talk!"

"yes!"

Li Hu quickly opened the door and walked in.

Cui Gongming had a gloomy face, looking at Li Hu who was still full of joy, and asked in a low voice: "Who is this distinguished guest that allows you to come up and disturb me so recklessly?"

The old man sitting opposite Cui Gongming was the chief steward of Lord Uzhe of Goguryeo. After his eldest brother Lu Yuan Gaisuwen was captured by the King of Jin, Lord Yuzhe became the largest official of Goguryeo in Pyongyang.

He is also one of the richest people in Pyongyang, so he is naturally a big customer of the tea shop.

"Go back to the shopkeeper, he's here!"

Being scolded by the shopkeeper who he was most afraid of, Li Hu shuddered subconsciously, but when he thought of the identity of the nobleman below, his face still looked happy.

"That one?"

Cui Gongming frowned slightly, and then looked at Li Hu's gestures, his eyes gradually widened, and he was still in disbelief, and his body trembled slightly.

"Are you sure it's that one?"

"Back to the shopkeeper, I saw the fish talisman of the guard next to me!" Li Hu said.

Hearing this, Cui Gongming could no longer sit still.

Since it is that person, who is this mere housekeeper of Goguryeo's Yuzhe Mansion?

He quickly stood up and slightly bowed his hand to the housekeeper of Lord Yu Zhe's house in front of him, "I would like to ask the housekeeper to forgive me, but there is a distinguished guest from the Tang Dynasty downstairs. I really don't dare to neglect that distinguished person.

Please forgive me, Butler!"

Seeing this, the housekeeper couldn't help but be startled. Shopkeeper Cui in front of him dared to neglect him like this.

However, after hearing that he was a nobleman from the Tang Dynasty, his eyes flashed and he quickly put on a kind face.

"Shopkeeper Cui, go ahead and entertain that noble man of the Tang Dynasty. I'll come back tomorrow!"

"Thanks to the butler!"

Cui Gongming hurriedly raised his hand, but without even noticing the butler, he hurried down.

My uncle actually came to the shop!

Behind him, Butler Yu's face froze when he saw such a scene, but at the same time he couldn't help but be filled with curiosity.

"I wonder which noble man of the Tang Dynasty is it? Steward Cui is so anxious?"

"Please forgive me, steward Yu. I must not name any noble person!"

Li Hu said quickly.

A mere barbarian hozen wants to know the identity of the great king. What a daydream!

In response, a trace of anger flashed in Butler Yu's eyes.

However, the person in front of me is from the Tang Dynasty.

In the past, he did not dare to offend too much. Now that the Tang Dynasty has captured Pyongyang City, he does not dare to offend even more.

And downstairs.

As soon as Cui Gongming came down to the first floor, he saw several guards standing in the shop with solemn faces.

He nodded slightly and walked straight in.

Sure enough, in the private room on the first floor, he saw His Royal Highness Prince Jin, whom he had only met once, drinking tea in an orderly manner. Opposite him, there was another person sitting who looked embarrassed, but looked up from time to time.

A Goguryeo man looking around.

After tidying up his appearance a little, Cui Gongming walked up to Li Xuan with a happy face and bowed his hands.

"Young man Cui Gongming has met your Majesty! I didn't know that Your Majesty came to the store in person, but I missed you from afar. Please forgive me!"

Li Xuan nodded slightly, and then asked curiously: "A member of the Cui family?"

"Back to your Majesty, I am from the Cui family in Qinghe, and I am now managing this tea shop!"

Cui Gongming hurriedly replied, "I wonder if your Majesty is visiting the shop in person and wants to drink tea?"

"Um!"

Li Xuan nodded and asked, "Do you know Goguryeo?"

Cui Gongming was startled and quickly replied: "Back to your Majesty, I can speak and write!"

"Very good!"

Li Xuan nodded with satisfaction, then pointed to the Goguryeo man on the side and said: "This man has two old wild ginseng plants in his hands. I have taken a fancy to them and need to buy them. Please ask how much it costs."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Cui Gongming understood now and responded quickly.

Then, he turned around and asked the Goguryeo herb collector in detail.

Then, in Li Xuan's eyes, the Goguryeo man chatted with Cui Gongming for a few words, then took out the two Korean ginseng plants wrapped in cloth in his hand, placed them on the tea table, and opened them carefully.

Immediately, the two Korean ginseng plants, which had grown almost as thick as a child's arm, appeared in front of several people.

It can be seen that there is still some fresh soil left on these two Korean ginseng plants.

It must have been dug up not long ago.
