Everyone’s eyes widened and they couldn’t help but be stunned for the second time this day but the reasons were different.
The stuff inside the small box is really ordinary, or it almost looks ordinary. Inside the small box was a black ordinary pipe, and a small half of a small leaf, which looked a bit like tobacco.
“A’Jing, what kind of leaf is this?” Wang Jun’s eyes lit up.
“But, it really doesn’t look like that.” Wang Zhuo was puzzled.
Wang Xuanji, Wang Jun, Wang Zheng, and other Wang Family members were also excited and confused.
Others waited and began to feel inexplicable. Why was the Wang Family so excited by a pipe? Even if this is not tobacco but it is only leaves. What is so surprising about this?
“What kind of leaves make you value it so much?” Li Tianhe asked with a strange expression on his face.
“A’Jing gave me some leaves before, which can be used to make tea and tobacco. The tea is not only fragrant and delicious but it also fills my body with energy after drinking it. I began to feel and look a few years younger after drinking it for a while. It’s a bit of a waste to smoke it but it’s refreshing, and the taste is far superior to any ordinary tobacco leaves out there. After smoking it, I lost interest in ordinary cigarettes, which made me quit being a smoker. I have successfully quit smoking. Although I am now addicted to smoking those leaves so my habits gradually came up again, but in comparison, ordinary cigarettes are still tasteless and I don’t smoke that often now.” Wang Xuanji said.
“There is such a thing?” Li Tianhe was amazed.
The other people present here couldn’t help but ask in their hearts, ‘Is this true? It shouldn’t be, right? The leaves Su Jing gave can be used to make tea and tobacco. Drinking it cause one to feel refreshed and he can feel younger. The taste is not comparable to ordinary tea leaves and cigarettes. Are there really such leaves in the world? And if there are then why haven’t they heard of them?’
“No no, these are not those kinds of leaves.” Su Jing shook his head as he spoke. The leaves Wang Xuanji is talking about came from the Immortal World/Eternal Life, and after drinking and smoking for so long, there are only a few left.
Su Jing is saving that small amount for a real emergency and had stopped giving it away. Su Jing once again spoke to bring the topic on hand, “Those leaves are actually the most suitable for making tea. This kind of leaf is the real tobacco leaf.”.”
“A’Jing, you are now giving tobacco leaves to Father, he finally stopped smoking after so long.” Wang Zheng said.
“Big Brother, didn’t you give him a smoking pipe just now?.” Su Jing pointed to Wang Jun.
“Cough, Cough, the pipe I gave is an antique, it is for viewing and collecting purposes, not for smoking.” Wang Jun explained.
“Hehe, I’m also not giving an ordinary tobacco leaf, and I won’t be able to explain it in words so, Uncle, just smoke it and you will notice the difference.” Su Jing handed the box to Wang Xuanji as he spoke.
Wang Xuanji received the box and his eyes lit up as he smelled it because it was too fragrant. He glanced at Su Jing before he picked up his pipe and he couldn’t wait to stuff tobacco leaves into it, and Wang Jun helped to light it.
“A Zheng, do you recognize what kind of tobacco this is?” Li Tianhe asked Li Zheng next to him.
“I can’t tell from here but it looks like it’s different from all other tobacco leaves currently on the market.” Li Zheng shook his head as he spoke.
As the Deputy Bureau Chief of the State Tobacco Administration, although he doesn’t need to grow tobacco by himself, he still knows a lot about it. Tobacco, yellow flower tobacco, sun-cured tobacco, flue-cured tobacco, burley tobacco, oriental tobacco, and many others.
He can basically recognize them at a glance, but he did not recognize the tobacco Su Jing took out.
The other people present on the scene were also filled with suspicion. Even if it is not ordinary tobacco leaves, it is still just tobacco leaves.
Besides, there are a lot of bigwigs here, so what expensive cigarettes or tobacco haven’t they smoked? Even if this is the most expensive tobacco, what’s so strange about it?
At this moment, Wang Xuanji took his first puff, and an intoxicated expression appeared on his face. The other people present here also smelled the smoke, and couldn’t help taking a deep breath.
The disdain in their hearts disappeared almost immediately and was replaced by shock.
“Oh My God, it smells so good!”
“This scent is so refreshing.”
“I always choke on the smell of smoke, but this smoke smells good.”
“How can it be so fragrant, what kind of smoke is this?”
“Is it oriental tobacco?”
“No, I’ve smoked oriental tobacco before and it was far less fragrant than this.”
All the people present, whether they are smokers or not, were fascinated by the smell of the smoke. It was not the smell of flowers, it was not the smell of perfume, it was the smell of smoke, pure smoke, but it was not like any other kind of smoke they have ever had or smelt, the fragrance is too intoxicating.
“Good smoke!” Wang Xuanji couldn’t help but praise.
“This smoke is amazing.” Li Tianhe also praised it. As he looked at the pipe in Wang Xuanji’s hand, it seems that he wants to grab it and smoke it. As an old smoker, he really can’t bear to not smoke such amazing-smelling tobacco.
“Mr. Su, this… what kind of tobacco is this?” Li Zheng grabbed Su Jing and trembled in excitement as if he had discovered a new continent. As the Deputy Bureau Chief of the National Tobacco Administration and the manager of the Head Office of the Tobacco Company, he was also overwhelmed by the aroma of this smoke.
