"Xiaobao, this place looks really good. What would it look like if Dong Zhuo hadn't burnt this place?" Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, who returned to their home in Luoyang, began to look at Luoyang City, although they couldn't compare with it. The city of Chang'an now has a special charm.
Wang Juan looked at the people coming and going on the road, and asked Zhang Xiaobao.
Zhang Xiaobao didn’t think about this at all. The news from Tubo came back. He was wondering how Han Xuanfeng’s illness was, whether he needed to send someone to pick him up, or if he was worried that Han Xuanfeng’s body was bumpy on the road. If it is easy to aggravate, get him back long ago.
Since you can't adapt to the plateau climate, don't stay there. Even if you survive this time, it will be easy to leave hidden dangers.
Hearing Wang Juan's voice, he didn't react for a while, and he said smoothly, "Hurry up, come back and raise it, and I won't send him there in the future."
"Why don't you send it? I ask you to burn Luoyang." Wang Juan knew that Zhang Xiaobao was distracted again. As things got more and more, Zhang Xiaobao also became distracted. Big things and small things should be taken care of. I have to find a way to correct his problem, and his subordinates, I have to take care of it, and I don't have to be exhausted.
Zhang Xiaobao knew what Wang Juan was talking about this time, and laughed, "Burn it and burn it. As long as it is better built later, whatever it was at the beginning, He Yiwei should have done a good job there. The arrangements are made, as long as he If you bring up something, support him first, even if the matter may not be successful, I will think of a solution later."
"Who knows, there is no news yet, just leave it alone, look for snacks, and see some special ones." Wang Juan interrupted when Zhang Xiaobao mentioned another thing, and dragged him forward. Go, stop from time to time to see what the street vendors are selling, or get into a shop to take a look.
After wandering in Luoyang city for a day, the two tired of walking went back. After eating, Wang Juan did not enter the house directly as before, but went to chat with his mother, leaving Zhang Xiaobao alone in the house. .
After thinking about it, Zhang Xiaobao was going to find Xiaobei and the others and tell them stories, but when he saw Xiaobei and the others, he discovered that Xiaobei and the others were telling the adults the stories they heard during this period, so Zhang Xiaobao had to change another place to stroll around.
After turning around for a few times, Zhang Xiaobao found that he really couldn't find anything, so he had to go back to the house, put a light on, practice his calligraphy, and wait for Wang Juan to come back to discuss other things.
I waited for an hour. When I was practicing calligraphy, the time passed quickly. Zhang Xiaobao hadn't noticed it yet. After waiting for someone from the yard over there to tell him that the little lady would not come back to live, Zhang Xiaobao realized that it was late. , Take a shower and lie on the bed alone to sleep.
I felt uncomfortable when I lay down. I turned over and over again. I couldn't fall asleep. The insomniac Zhang Xiaobao thought for a while, and finally knew what was wrong. He sighed, "Hey... Sometimes habits are the most uncomfortable. Sleep, relax, Relax, relax again."
The next morning, when everyone got up, Wang Juan also found Zhang Xiaobao, and said to Zhang Xiaobao: "Sleep separately these days, I have to be comfortable."
"Ah? What do you adapt to?" Zhang Xiaobao was very uncomfortable. There was no one next to him, so he felt almost something.
"What else can I adapt? When I chatted with my mother last night, my body reacted." Wang Juan suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
Zhang Xiaobao disagreed, "I thought what was wrong, didn't you just grow up? Okay, you adapt first, do you need to make up something? Jujube, saffron?"
"No, I'm all ready, and I will sleep with you at night after I get used to it." Wang Juan became shy as if he had changed a person. After speaking, he turned and left without accompanying Zhang Xiaobao. I don't know what I'm busy with.
Zhang Xiaobao, who felt very uncomfortable, shook his head and said to himself: "Isn't it just such a thing? Woman, I really don't understand. When I grow up, time flies so fast, just like yesterday. Have to go through the trouble of growing up?"
…
The troubles are not only for Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan. In Sihai Academy, Yamamoto is very troubled. Even if he has grown up, a few days ago, people who inquired in Baoxin County said that they started to make a kind of briquettes there. After the things that could save firewood, he began to make trouble.
For two days in a row, I didn’t feel better. The two thousand sticks of money in Baoxin County won’t come back. If it was the beginning of the past, it doesn’t matter whether the two thousand sticks have it or not. There was a lot of money at that time, but now it’s money. When the flowers are gone, the two thousand kanbans also seem to be important.
There is also the land that was bought. If you leave it there, you won’t get a copper coin. You have to give the county a sum of money every year. To chop down trees and divide only part of the living expenses of the college, life is even more difficult.
Yamamoto, who was in a depressed situation, felt that the heat of the day was very uncomfortable. After pouring two large bowls of tea, he still did not feel cool. He walked out the door and watched the students walking back and forth in the empty courtyard of the college. , In a trance, seemed to have come to another world.
"Yamamoto, it's better to sell the land in Baoxin County, and you can get some money back. The lives of people from our country are getting worse and worse."
While Yamamoto was traveling, Yamamoto, who also learned the news, did not know where it came from, and said to Yamamoto.
"Sell? No, you absolutely can't sell it. If you sell it, you will lose more. There is development, and the land will be very valuable in the future. It is estimated that as long as you wait for another two years, no, one year, the price you bought at that time will be able to rise. Doubled."
It seemed that Yamamoto didn't study here for nothing, and he understood the truth, and rejected the proposal of Shan Temple.
Shansi actually thought of this problem, but he knew better that if there were not enough money, many people from his own country here would not be able to study with peace of mind. It is not easy to come here once, so he has to seize the opportunity, so he insists. road:
"That little money will not be considered money after a year. The important thing is that we are now sending the domestic money. It will take a few months. If it survives, are you still afraid of lack of money?"
Yamamoto stopped talking now, and he also understood that it was time to spend money, but he was not reconciled to his own plan. After he got there, no one would succeed. No one seemed to do anything specifically for himself, just busy. People's livelihood construction, as a result, my own plans failed one after another.
This kind of heart attack is the most important thing. Seeing the seriousness of Yamaji who insisted, Yamamoto finally compromised.
"Sell it, send someone over, ask someone to ask, try to sell at a higher price, it is estimated that it will be difficult, because the firewood there is already worthless, and it is enough to sell it for a cost."
"Hi!" Yamadera happily agreed, and hurried to find someone to discuss the land sale. He was responsible for the lives of people from the country to here, while Yamamoto was responsible for the outside world. Because of the lack of money, he was under a lot of pressure. Of course, Yamamoto's is not small, but you can't be uncomfortable with both of you, so you should solve your own problems first.
Looking at the back of the left mountain temple, Yamamoto is not wandering this time. Instead, he lowered his head and figured out how to make more money. No need to think about using big money to make big money, as long as it can make people from China live better. , I have time, because I don’t have to continue to learn what is taught in the academy. If I want to learn, I have to learn better.
"Yamamoto, it's better to use the woodland as a mortgage in exchange for money. Then the woodland will still be ours." Yamamoto thought, another person came over and said to him.
"Who is mortgaged? That's a lot of money. Even if the woodland is doubled, it will probably not be enough for the profit needed to go. Sell it. If you sell it, I will go out and have a look at the nearest place." Do a little business and don’t know what kind of business is good for making money."
Yamamoto didn’t think about it, but found that he had paid more, so he had to admit that all his plans in Baoxin County had failed. He thought about buying some goods and setting up a stall here. It’s a personal thing, able to command so much. When you have money and don't have money to use, you are willing to set up a small stall for the people in your country. Most people don't have this idea.
"Yamamoto-kun, can people from Silla give us money? I discovered something. When I got up the night before, I saw several Silla people come together to discuss things. Guess what they are talking about. They actually want to do something in Changning County, where there is also a member of the Tang Clan, ready to benefit from there."
The visitor did not leave, but suddenly gave out a news that shocked Yamamoto. After the visitor told the details of the matter, Yamamoto suddenly felt that the other party seemed to be better than what he did in Baoxin County.
"You mean..." Yamamoto lowered his voice and asked.
"Yes, this is to threaten the people of Silla. If they give us money, we will tell the matter and let them fail." The person said excitedly.
Yamamoto's eyes were also shining, and when he was about to agree, he frowned and shook his head. "No, you can't go to them and say, once you say it, I'm worried that they will stop and won't give us money. We do nothing." Not getting it is nothing more than letting them not get it either.
I want to see if Datang’s Zhang Xiaobao is really that great. Was success in the past all a fluke. I waited for Datang to lose once. Will Datang suddenly turn his face? "
Yamamoto was suddenly a little reconciled to his failure. He wanted to let the people of Silla clean up the Tang Dynasty. Even if he did not succeed, he knew that the Tang Dynasty was not invincible, although this time the people of Shilla were not directly involved with Tang. Zhang Xiaobao met, but Zhang Xiaobao had already expressed his meaning very clearly.
That is, as long as there is Zhang Xiaobao in Datang, everyone will be honest with me. Don't think about the people who calculate my Datang in a crooked way. It is estimated that once the master waiter finds that something is wrong, he will go to Zhang Xiaobao and see Zhang Xiaobao. how to respond
People who came here thought this was the case, but there were other suspicions in their hearts. They suspected that Yamamoto wanted to borrow Zhang Xiaobao from the altar by someone else's hands, because many people are now talking about the top game list of Datang. There is one person missing from the middle school, and the one above it, that person is Zhang Xiaobao.
Even if the first person is defeated, as long as he has not played against Zhang Xiaobao, it is not a victory. Yamamoto is clearly unable to let others get ahead.
So he said again: "Yamamoto-kun, don't worry about a failure, as long as there is a chance of victory."
"When did I fail? Didn’t I just take the technology of turning radish into ginseng? No matter what the method is, as long as it succeeds, it means victory. After buying seeds, radish and thermometer, there will be no money. I also bought the cement sold outside. Did it fail?"
Yamamoto said to the visitor unhappily, which meant he was successful, even though it was a technique obtained by sneaky means.
"If you haven't failed, then don't ask people from Shilla to ask for money. Yamamoto-kun wants to do business, and he will do it with him." What else could the person say, and he had to agree and expressed his support for Yamamoto.
The two had just settled things, thinking about some small business tomorrow. At this time, another person who was collecting information in Baoxin County hurried over, walked to Yamamoto, looked around, and saw that no one could hear him. Speaking, then he whispered to Yamamoto:
"According to reliable sources, Li Yu passed by some time ago in Xincai County, and then left happily. I don’t know what they talked about, and I don’t know who leaked the news. Before I came, someone from the Zhang family found it. I said it was for me to talk to Yamamoto-kun, if Yamamoto-kun wants to do some business, they are willing to provide a way."
"En?" Yamamoto was stunned, and then he was stunned, because he didn't understand what Li Yu was doing in Xincai County. The surprise was that the Zhang family didn't just know that the people he sent there to inquire about the news were there. Somewhere, I still know that I have no money.
Yamamoto suddenly felt that he didn't have the slightest secret, as if all he was doing was in the eyes of the other person. This feeling made him very uncomfortable. Of course, no one would feel comfortable in the change.
Taking two deep breaths, Yamamoto asked the person who came to report, "What are the conditions?"
"As long as we are in Baoxin County, they said that as long as we give them the land and the way they tell us to make money, we can definitely make money when our fleet comes back in a short period of time, and there will be plenty of money."
Someone answered.
Without waiting for Yamamoto to speak, the person who came to talk about the matter just now spoke first, "Yamamoto-kun, I think I should agree to it. Who doesn't know how many ideas the Zhang Wang family has to make money?"
Looking at this man very dissatisfiedly, Yamamoto's brows became tighter, and he slowly said: "If they can only make a little money, or even not make money, our land is gone. How to do it? And why do they want a few plots of land in such a hurry? Do they have any bigger plans?"
The person who was about to agree just now really didn't expect that there would be so many questions, and smiled awkwardly, "Then don't agree, we should do the business tomorrow, and we will do our own."
"No, if Zhang Xiaobao is afraid that we will sell the land, he deliberately proposes to use a method to exchange it, so that we can continue to keep the land so that we can set it off?"
Yamamoto now feels that for Zhang Xiaobao, anything can happen, whether it is to advance or not to retreat, very upset.
When the two people saw that Yamamoto had said everything, they stopped speaking. Seeing how Yamamoto decided, Yamamoto carried his hands on his back and started spinning around in circles. After a few steps, he would stop, shook his head, and continued walking. When he was confused, he stopped and ordered the people who were inquiring about the news in Baoxin County.
"Go back right away, find the Zhang family to discuss with you, and ask them if they want to buy it directly with money instead of a prescription."
"Hi!" The visitor agreed, turned around and hurried away, without rest.
Watching the people leave, Yamamoto turned his head and explained to the people standing next to him: "If the Zhang family agrees to buy with money, it means that they want the pieces of land to be useful. If they don't agree, they are probably digging for us. Trap, wait for us to jump in, go back and study hard, you don’t need to worry about buying and selling."
The visitor nodded, turned and left, and went back to review his homework. He was still thinking on the road. According to Yamamoto's words, it was not bad, but what if Xiaobao could guess Yamamoto's idea and deliberately use it
After thinking about it, I finally didn't think of a better way to speed up the pace and return to my room. This room is not for nothing. It is 30 tans a month, and it is very expensive.
…
The people who were doing things in Baoxin County rushed back as quickly as possible, and found Erniu, the person in charge of the matter now, and told Erniu about the matter. Erniu didn't have any surprised expressions at all. The man said:
"You can buy it, but it depends on how much it costs. If it’s expensive, it won’t work. Our family really can’t spare manpower to do new business, otherwise it’s not your turn. The price we offer is half of the original price, and we are willing to sell. Just sell it. If you don’t want to sell it, you can use a recipe to exchange it, or you can figure it out yourself."
The person in charge of inquiring about the information already knew what Yamamoto was thinking, and thought he could detect something from the other person's mouth, at least he could understand the attitude of the woodland, but he didn't expect this Niu to be tepid, so let's say he is not in a hurry. , He always mentions woodland matters, saying that he is anxious, and then he vigorously lowers the price.
what 's wrong
"Why don't you let Yamamoto come here in person. There are many things you can't do as the person who spreads the message. It takes a lot of time to toss back and forth." The Niu saw the other party's thoughts and said to him.
The visitor sighed, nodded helplessly, and had no choice but to run towards the Sihai Academy again. It would take a long time to go back and forth.
Waiting for the people to leave, Er Niu smiled and murmured: "You must not think of it? This thing is not ordered by the little boy at all. It is that I am idle to find some interesting activities, whether to sell the land or not. Yes, the main reason is to make you feel unreliable, and idleness is also idleness."
…
"Xiaobao, let him go inside." Zhang Xiaobao was still preparing to sleep alone today, and all lay down. Wang Juan suddenly appeared and stood by the bed, pushing Zhang Xiaobao hard to let him go inside.
"How many days have you passed?" Zhang Xiaobao moved, looking at Wang Juan and asked.
"Well, I didn’t sleep well there, and it was troublesome to discuss something. I heard a message from someone today saying that Li Linfu is about to reach the place, and Cui Rizhi. The two of them met together, so I watched it lively. I don’t know who will be better in this confrontation. I think it’s Li Linfu. He has many hearts and eyes, and he doesn’t show it on the surface. He is a truly sinister man."
Wang Juan lay down next to Zhang Xiaobao, and found that it was still comfortable to sleep here. He pulled Zhang Xiaobao's arm, and said with his head resting on it.
Zhang Xiaobao was also at ease. Hearing Wang Juan mentioned two people, he replied: "I guess the county lieutenant sent here is not a good one. If it doesn't work well, it can still play a very useful role. Don't underestimate others. This time Let's not go back to see what can be messed up over there."
"Now? When I think it will be Cui Rizhi's first victory, after all, we have prepared Feng Changgong's fault for him. As long as he doesn't lose heart, he can make arrangements and understand. Even if Li Linfu has the ability to shake things up, he dare not directly. To protect Feng Changgong, his most appropriate way is to temporarily stand by Cui Rizhi's side and deal with Feng Changgong ruthlessly.
In this way, he doesn't have to worry about being watched by the court, and then find a chance to pull the balance back. I believe he can. When we go back, we will be equally careful when dealing with him. Who makes his reputation so famous. "
