- There are cigarette-like strips placed in the boy's wooden box. Although it looks like some kind of leaves are directly rolled up and fixed, the workmanship is very delicate, and some of them are vaguely visible. Gilt texture.
"Sir! Do you want some Havana? A very cheap one only costs 2 Lien, and a pack of ten only costs 15 Lien." The boy looked very enthusiastic with a smile.
Closide couldn't help but stare at the boy and what he recommended to him.
"Havana~What is this?"
Seeing that the man in front of him seemed to be interested, the boy's enthusiasm for selling also increased: "The new tobacco that has been released recently is very good, and you won't feel headache or chest tightness after smoking it. Do you want to buy one and give it a try?" It only costs 2 Lien, very cheap.¡±
It¡¯s really cheap!
Croside probably figured out what the boy wanted to sell to him. It was a plant cigarette with anesthetic properties. After smoking, humans will feel unprecedentedly relaxed and refreshed. Of course, it may also lead to addiction. Sex, after taking it, you need to keep taking it, otherwise your body will feel extremely uncomfortable.
As a giant dragon, Closide usually laughs at this kind of thing. As a giant dragon, he will not feel anything when he drinks this kind of thing. He has never felt the so-called unprecedented relaxation and pleasure. The dragon's powerful physique seemed to be immune to the properties of this anesthetic. But today Croside was a little more interested, mainly because the price the boy gave was indeed unprecedentedly cheap, so cheap that it was a bit disappointing for the effect he introduced to him.
There are also many plants and spices on the mainland that can produce hallucinogenic effects and stimulate mental relaxation. For example, a black datura flower and azure rose powder can become a very good medicine. In addition to bringing In addition to being sufficiently high, it can also put the mage in a state of high concentration, thereby improving the efficiency of meditation. At the same time, the addiction is very low, so low that it is almost negligible in Chengdu. For this reason, not only the nobles but also many mages are also very popular with it. Plant plants.
It¡¯s just that the price of azure crystal rose as an auxiliary material is not cheap, it¡¯s expensive! Very expensive! Too expensive!
Even if the king sells his crown, it is impossible to take it every day. If the amount of blue crystal rose is eliminated or reduced, then this mixed drug will become a pure stimulant. In addition to losing the effect of concentration, it will become Addiction and toxicity also multiply. And some cheap hallucinogenic drugs are not without such as Kudingcao, Bloodthorn, Blue Magic Powder, etc., but they have greater side effects and addiction. But even so, they are never cheap enough to be placed in a child's hand. I already have one in hand and sell it at such a cheap price of 2 lien.
Not to mention that many of these plants are used to prepare magic potions. It would be a waste of resources to use these medicinal materials as stimulants and smoke them.
"It's so cheap, are you sure this thing is really effective?" Closed asked doubtfully, holding a so-called Havana tobacco.
"You are the fourth person to ask me this question, sir! As a noble and gentleman, you have the right to try smoking one." The boy smiled and waved to the side, and soon someone stood aside. A child about his age carrying an oil lamp also ran over.
Closide became a little curious about this kind of promotion method. The boy did not deliberately hand him a 'trial product' but let him take one out of the box at will. Obviously, the hundreds of tobaccos in his box should be genuine. That's right.
"Interesting~ I won't try it anymore, give me a pack!" Closide said, playing with the tobacco in his hand.
The boy nodded happily and immediately took out the packaged tobacco from the lower level of the cabinet and handed it over. Judging from the volume, there should be exactly ten sticks of this kind of Havana tobacco. However, when giving the money, Closide realized that he did not bring it. After thinking about it for a while, he simply threw a silver coin he carried with him to the boy. Obviously the boy also knew the goods. This silver coin was worth at least several hundred lien. After taking the silver coin and biting it to confirm that it was genuine, the boy again He hurriedly took a business card and gave it to Croside and told him that if necessary, he could buy it at the place marked on the business card, and there were better products there.
It¡¯s quite formal!
After the two children left, Closide thoughtfully tore off a little of the tobacco that came with it, put it into his mouth and chewed it, although magic plants and even some real poisonous plants could not It affects the black dragon, but I can still feel the various medicinal properties of this plant.
???????????????????????????????? It does have the unique medicinal properties of hallucinogenic plants, it is slightly toxic, but the damage to the body is so low that it can be completely ignored, but I am a little unclear©©
Closide chewed the tobacco slowly and was a little confused about the kind of hallucinogenic plant it was. It seemed to be different from the hallucinating plants and drugs he had tasted before. The drug?The size and duration, the toxicity and addictiveness to the body, and most importantly the cheap price, there seemed to be no plant that matched it in one's own mind.
After returning to the chamber of commerce, Closide called the attendant and handed the remaining tobacco to the other party, asking him to find someone in the chamber of commerce who is more proficient in medicinal materials to identify it tomorrow to see which plant is used as raw material for this tobacco.
But suddenly Croside remembered something again. Although the children selling these tobacco were neatly and cleanly dressed, their bodies and scarred hands showed that they should all come from the lower class areas. These children from the lower class areas It is impossible to suddenly go to the upper area to sell these things. In order to prevent refugees in the lower area or the most troublesome people from mixing into the upper area, entry and exit fees will be levied on poor people who do not hold a residence certificate in the upper area at the checkpoints entering and exiting the upper area. Yes, this fee is not an easy amount for the poor people in the lower-class areas who almost have nothing to live with.
Sometimes a lower-class resident who has lived in a free city all his life may not have the opportunity to step into an upper-class district. How did those children who are obviously from the lower-class districts come here?
"By the way, let's go to the lower area to see if this kind of tobacco is sold." After thinking about it, Croside ordered.
"I understand, Your Excellency."
©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©
Whether there is this kind of tobacco for sale in the lower area, the answer to Closide's guess is obviously yes!
The tobacco originally named Havana has slowly spread from the black streets to every corner of the lower class. It has enough medicinal properties to make people feel extremely high. Although it is somewhat addictive, the damage to the body is almost completely negligible. , and more importantly, the price is low enough that a beggar can buy some Havana with the money he begs for, and then enjoy the pleasure of doing whatever he wants in the hallucination.
As soon as this kind of tobacco appeared, it became popular all over the underworld. For the gangsters, thieves, killers and even prostitutes on the underworld, this kind of tobacco is simply an ideal place to escape reality. When you are almost out of breath from the pressure of this cruel city, you can completely relax your tired nerves in a dreamlike hallucination by taking a deep breath.
Soon these truly cheap and high-quality Havana tobaccos were regarded by many as a gift from the gods!
As for the little bit of withdrawal syndrome after stopping smoking, compared to the double burden that this city brings to the body and spirit every day, that little bit of withdrawal syndrome is as gentle as a woman's comfort.
The number of people smoking smoke on the black streets increased sharply every day. It became fashionable to hand a Havana to each other when gang members met. Counting money while holding a Havana became a habit of gang bosses. Many children on the street are running around in the streets and alleys holding small boxes, selling the tobacco in their hands to everyone. Rich people can buy already rolled tobacco directly, while people with a little more money can also buy tobacco leaves. Then go home and do it yourself.
When the black streets began to become saturated, Havana quickly spread to the entire downtown area. The low prices and extreme sense of excitement even made many members of the city's security forces fall in love with this thing. After the contribution was handed over to the security team, this 'harmless' tobacco was approved as quickly as possible and allowed to be sold to lower-level areas. Although the price is low, when the quantity rises to a higher level, huge profits will follow. Let the people behind the scenes who created all this spectacle make a lot of money.
Yes! Make a lot of money!
"Ms. Black Rose, here is the sales report for this week, as well as the additional orders from the gangs under the Black Street. Please take a look."
In a large mansion on a black street with luxurious decoration that is incompatible with most of the simple houses in the lower class areas, masked members of the Black Rose are submitting routine marketing reports to LeBlanc. The huge numbers on it make the person who submits the report The faces of the Black Rose's upper echelons were covered by masks, and they all showed expressions of joy. This was an astronomical amount of wealth, and it was an achievement that no gang on the underworld could achieve by all means.
LeBlanc, who was wearing a purple dress, took the report, read it, and threw it aside boringly, as if everything recorded on it was just a few insignificant numbers.
For LeBlanc, these figures only show that their current organization no longer needs to have the Silver Wings Chamber of Commerce provide funds secretly. On the contrary, it is no problem for them to provide it back. Other than that, these figures have no other meaning. It makes sense. Although the Black Rose has taken root in this city, its body is still too fragile and needs to continue to penetrate into every link.
¡°I will satisfy them with the supply and let these little ants help me sell as much as possible.¡±
?"Yes, Ms. Black Rose!" The attendant nodded.
However, LeBlanc, who was playing with the staff in her hand and looking charming, suddenly changed her tone and said: "Upper District! Let me remind you, what I want is to open the market in the upper district, and I can't sell much in the lower district. Yes, if Black Rose wants to grow stronger, it must integrate into the upper-level area, I have made it clear to me."
The attendant trembled slightly, and immediately stood up straight and respectfully, listening like a soldier being reviewed.
"Never underestimate yourself, and never be satisfied with the present. Is your only ambition to live in this poor place like maggots? What I can't tolerate the most in Black Rose is to be content with the status quo and continue. Climb me up to the top!"
With an aura like a queen, LeBlanc¡¯s words seemed to weigh ten thousand pounds, making those on the side breathless. - Didn't finish reading?
