Seeing what seemed to be hidden in Xiang Yan's smile, Kou Ji thought for a while and realized that he hadn't done anything funny, so he didn't care.
Kou Ji and Xiang Yan joined hands in the main hall.
Kou Zhun sat in the middle of the hall earlier.
There was a table in front of me, and delicious food was placed on the table.
His complexion was gloomy, and he didn't say a word.
After Kou Jimai stepped into the main hall, he asked: "What did Wang Yunsheng have done in recent days, did you teach?"
Wang Yunsheng is exactly the name of the minister of the Ministry of Engineering.
This old non-jinshi background was recommended by the late Wen Zhenggong Li Fang.
Under the protection of Li Fang, the journey went smoothly and got into the position of Beijing official.
After Li Fang's death, he was squeezed to the office of the Ministry of Engineering to sit on a cold bench, and then relying on his qualifications, all the way to the position of the minister of the Ministry of Engineering.
This person didn't do much to the court, but he didn't do much.
Be regarded as one of the officials who did not act.
If Kou Ji hadn't moved to the Ministry of Engineering and forced him to go out to work, it is estimated that he would be able to retire in the Ministry of Engineering.
Facing Kou Zhun’s cold questioning, Kou Ji raised his eyebrows and said in a deep thought, “I just told Wang Yunsheng to go to Sansi to get back the Tuntian powers assigned to the Ministry of Industry in the inner court. I didn’t say anything else?”
Kou Zhun snorted coldly: "He asked Li Zi to ask for five thousand soups and medicines. Did you teach it?"
Kou Ji looked stunned.
He did say that Wang Yunsheng asked Li Zi to ask for five thousand soups and medicines.
It's just that he is joking, roughly expressing a meaning to Wang Yunsheng, to make Wang Yunsheng remember to blackmail.
The cost of ordinary soups and medicines is enough for several or dozens of times.
It is not difficult for Wang Yunsheng to ask Li Zi for hundreds of soups and medicines.
But he didn't expect that Wang Yunsheng really did exactly what he said, instead of asking Li Zi for thousands of soups and medicines.
Is Wang Yunsheng's head awkward
Is it on purpose
Kou Ji speculated and felt that Wang Yunsheng was 80% intentional.
He can get into the post of assistant man of the Ministry of Engineering, and even if he is incompetent, his brain is bound to be better than ordinary people.
How could he not hear the deep meaning of Kou Ji's words.
He must have done this deliberately.
Maybe it was because he was afraid that the smashing thing would tarnish his reputation, so he did this, trying to push the smashing thing to Kou Ji's head.
After figuring out the joints, Kou Ji felt angry and funny.
Underworld Wang Yunsheng's ghost heart is not small.
It was he who asked Wang Yunsheng to ask Li Zi for the cost of the soup and medicine, but he did not intend to admit it.
Wang Yunsheng cherishes fame, isn't he Kou Ji not cherish fame
If he doesn't cherish fame, he can still get Wang Yunsheng to play poker, and Wang Yunsheng to earn the five thousand guan
With an idea, Kou Ji handed his hand to Kou Zhun: "Back to my grandfather, I never instigated Wang Yunsheng to ask Li Zizhuo what soup and medicine cost."
Kou Zhun said coldly: "Then when Wang Yunsheng and Li Zi quarreled in Shishitang today, under the old man's questioning, why did you say that you made the order?"
Kou Ji pretended to be stunned, and then smiled bitterly: "How could I give such a stupid order. I think it was Wang Yunsheng who resented Li Zi's subordinates for insulting him, so he asked Li Zi for a huge amount of soup and medicine, and was afraid of his grandfather. You scolded him and deliberately pushed the matter off my head."
Of course, how could Kou Zhun listen to Kou Ji's nonsense.
If Wang Yunsheng had the courage to rant in front of him, he wouldn't be sitting in the position of the assistant minister of the Ministry of Engineering.
Kou Zhun glared at Kou Ji and snorted coldly: "Then when it comes to court tomorrow, the old man will personally stare at your three-way confrontation."
Hearing this, Kou Ji didn't persuade him. Instead, he asked tentatively: "Then did Li Zi give Wang Yunsheng the decoction fee?"
Kou Zhun's old face turned black, and he hummed: "People fainted in Sansi after all. Whether they were angered or knocked down, Sansi is responsible. As the third ambassador, Li Zi failed to manage well. Subordinates, of course, have to pay for soup and medicine.
But it's not as outrageous as five thousand Kan.
The old man was in charge and asked Li Zi to pay Wang Yunsheng a thousand tongs for the decoction. "
Kou Ji nodded slowly when he heard this.
When Wang Yunsheng touched the porcelain, he got the soup and medicine fee, which Kou Ji expected.
After all, this kind of thing is hard to tell.
Li Zi is also on the side of the loss, so it is inevitable that he will compensate the soup and medicine.
Kou Zhun felt unhappy, shaking his head, and muttering to himself: "There is a lack of dignity, the dignified central minister..."
Kou Zhun really couldn't find words to describe Wang Yunsheng's bumping into porcelain.
Obviously, Kou Zhun felt that Wang Yunsheng's behavior was demeaning.
If Wang Yunsheng asked Li Zi for an explanation on the excuse, it would be nicer.
But Wang Yunsheng directly asked Li Zi for money, which seemed a bit inferior.
After all, asking for money and framing up porcelain are two concepts.
The former is shameless, the latter is to take the opportunity to achieve a certain purpose.
The former is unbearable, while the latter is a manifestation of wisdom.
"Boom..."
Just when Kou Ji secretly figured out how to make Wang Yunsheng recognize the matter alone.
Kou Zhun slapped the table and said angrily: "This wind must not rise. If everyone in the city of Bianjing follow suit in the future, wouldn't it be a mess. The old man will make an order and affirm this matter tomorrow."
Kou Ji asked: "How does grandfather plan to declare this?"
Kou Zhun glared at Kou Ji and said, "Naturally, Zhang Bang told the people that the reason why Wang Yunsheng fainted was because of being pushed and pushed by the Sansi Ya.
I can't talk about it anymore.
Kou Ji hurriedly added: "It's not playing tricks."
Hearing the words, Kou Zhun nodded, and said loudly, "I'm not playing tricks, taking the opportunity to squander money."
Wang Yunsheng wants fame, and the court also wants fame.
A great minister in the central government played a trick to squander money. If it was spread, wouldn't the people regard the Manchu civil and military affairs as being a stalker
So I can only find an excuse to make the matter more reasonable.
I don't know that the yaman of the three divisions was unlucky and had to make sacrifices for the face of the court.
Hearing these words from Kou Zhun, Kou Ji already had a way to deal with Wang Yunsheng.
I'm not afraid to confront Wang Yunsheng and Li Zi at the court tomorrow.
He led Xiang Yan to sit down.
The family of three began to eat.
Kou Zhun held a piece of pickled vegetables, stuffed it into his mouth, chewing, and sighed with emotion, "I'm used to eating the delicacies of mountains and seas in the palace, and green vegetables. Now try this pickled vegetables again, it has a different flavor."
Xiang Yan said with a smile: "Grandfather likes it, then eat more. Grandson-in-law made a lot of marinades in the kitchen..."
The ancients had no green vegetables to enjoy during the winter.
So during the winter, most of the food is pickled vegetables.
Some are pickled in summer and some are pickled in autumn.
The only place where you can eat greens in winter is probably the palace.
Because there is a huge greenhouse in the palace, which is planted with various kinds of vegetables, exclusively for Zhao Zhen, Liu E and others to enjoy.
Occasionally, some of the money will be distributed to some important ministers in the DPRK and China.
But not too much.
In winter, being able to get greens from the palace is a symbol of grace.
It is said that when Taizong was in the dynasty, two officials had equal positions. During the winter, Taizong gave one of them green vegetables, but not the other.
Another official sensed Taizong's dissatisfaction with him and resigned decisively to escape the murder.
According to Taizong's thoughts at the time, he originally planned to weave some crimes on him, and then exile or kill him.
It was because he was smart enough to detect something wrong in the joints that gave the green vegetables, so he escaped and retreated all over his body.
Of course, this is just a false statement.
Because they can mix to the point of eating green vegetables in the palace, they are all important ministers in the court.
But Kou Ji still doesn't know the name of the official who escaped from Taizong's hands.
Kou Ji secretly guessed that it was probably a story made up by someone in order to uphold the special meaning of the green dishes rewarded in the palace.
Kou Zhun's pickled vegetables are sweet, but Kou Ji is like chewing wax.
He was outside the city and accompanied the refugees to eat chaffy vegetables for more than ten days.
Now that he returned to the mansion, he couldn't eat the delicacies of the mountains and the sea, and he still had to eat pickled vegetables. Of course he was not satisfied.
That is, a plate of fried meat and a plate of stew on the table, barely able to satisfy his appetite.
Otherwise, he would definitely return to the garden to have another meal after having eaten with Kou Zhun.
At the same time, Kou Ji felt that it was necessary for him to write a letter to Zhao Zhen, asking Zhao Zhen to give him some greens to taste.
After dinner, Kou Ji was about to go back to write to Zhao Zhen, but Kou Zhun stayed.
Kou Zhun seemed to have something to tell him.
Xiang Yan confessed his guilt and left the main hall.
Kou Zhun instructed Kou Zhong to clean up the leftovers on the table. After the maid served the fragrant tea, Kou Zhun slowly said, "You did a good job of resettling the refugees this time..."
Kou Ji confessed with a smile: "Actually, I also wanted to use the power of the refugees to make money and profit, so I took the initiative to grab this errand."
Kou Zhun was taken aback when he heard the words, then he sighed and asked, "Is the old man's salary not enough for you?"
Without waiting for Kou Ji to speak, Kou Zhun said again: "You are an official, a fourth-rank official, and you are already a heavy minister in the court. If you are released, you can be enough to hold the border.
What you should do is to work for the court and the people.
Instead of planning those money all day long.
It's not the way to run those merchants.
When it comes to spending money, the old man has never seen you spend money. Not only did you not spend the money from the mansion, after arriving in Bianjing, you also used the merchant's way to make a fortune for the mansion.
On the food town of Gangneung, a money-making workshop was built.
It can be said that even if you do nothing in the future, your money will continue to flow in.
As long as the money-making workshop exists, your children and grandchildren will also have a steady stream of money and money.
Since you don't have to worry about money, and you don't need money, why do you want to make money? "
After Kou Zhun finished speaking, Kou Ji wanted to speak, but Kou Zhun looked solemn.
Unprecedented dignity.
He realized that Kou Zhun might have something to say, so he shut up.
I saw Kou Zhun staring at him solemnly, and asked a shocking sentence.
"You tell the old man, you collect so much money without spending it, do you simply like money, or do you want to use that money... to rebel?"
Kou Ji's eyes widened in astonishment, with an unbelievable expression on his face: "Grandfather, why do you have such a thought?"
Kou Zhun stared at Kou Ji and said in a deep voice, "Everything you do is moving in this direction. It's hard for the old man to think about it."
Kou Ji frowned slightly.
Did Kou Zhun know the role of Jiaozipu
Chen Lin told him
It should be impossible.
If Chen Lin told Kou Zhun about the role of Jiaozipu, it is impossible for Kou Zhun to let Jiaozipu be in charge of him.
That's why Kou Zhun gave birth to this kind of thought.
Kou Ji stared at Kou Zhun, his eyes full of inquiries.
Kou Zhun sighed and said: "Li Di told the old man that the soldiers and civilians who came from Baozhou will follow you."
Kou Ji frowned and said: "I am kind to the soldiers and civilians of Baozhou. I saved their lives when they were not covered in clothes and food. The court allocated food, cloth, and land.
The civil and military people of all dynasties knew this.
If I need to do something by the soldiers and civilians of Baozhou, they naturally have to do it for me. "
Kou Zhun took a deep look at Kou Ji, and solemnly said, "But in their eyes, you are more important than the court, and more important than the official Jiangshan Sheji."
Kou Ji frowned when he heard the words.
Kou Ji knew exactly what Kou Zhun meant in this sentence.
The soldiers and civilians of Baozhou obeyed Kou Ji's words, and even only cared about Kou Ji, not the court.
If Kou Ji wants to do anything, he just needs to raise his arms.
In an instant, countless dead soldiers rushed in front of him, charged for him, and worked for him.
Kou Ji stared at Kou Zhun and asked: "That's it? Just because of the soldiers and civilians in Baozhou, my grandfather suspects that I have two hearts?"
Kou Zhun shook his head and said, "Of course it's more than that... There are also the money in the mansion, the money-making workshop in Jiangling, and the three major merchants in Shu. The money registered in the account book of the mansion has exceeded ten million, far more than Save money from the treasury.
Can equip two or three hundred thousand warriors.
The money-making workshops in Jiangling are constantly making money. Large quantities of money are being cast. The copper deposits in it are enough to buy 40-50% of the grain in the Xiajiangling area.
In this disaster relief, the three major merchants in central Sichuan will be able to deliver the things you need on time and in sufficient quantities within three days.
Are these not enough? "
After a pause, Kou Zhun added, "There are 10,000 well-equipped Tiger Army in Baozhou, and the newly selected Bao Serbian Army..."
Kou Ji looked at Kou Zhun solemnly.
Kou Ji connected Kou Zhun's words carefully and found that it was really easy for him to raise troops.
Baozhou has two to three hundred thousand warriors for him to drive, and the money in the mansion allows him to equip these two to three hundred thousand warriors.
The money-making workshop in Jiangling can provide him with enough food at any time.
The three of Mu Chong can transport the materials he needs to the place he needs at any time, and the speed is very fast.
In other words, as long as there is sufficient financial resources to support it.
He can lead two or three hundred thousand warriors to beat the Song Dynasty once, without worrying about food or food.
Of course, this is just an idealized state.
If it is really easy to overthrow the Song Dynasty, Liao and Xixia would have overthrown the Song Dynasty long ago.
