Chapter 269: Internal and External Troubles

No matter how worried he was, no one at home could go out, so Ouyang Kang still walked into the wind and snow without hesitation. Before leaving, he specially instructed Nianfu, "Don't go out of the stall today, with such a big snow, not many people will go out, in case you fall and get hurt, it's not good." ”

Nianfu agreed, but he was a little uneasy in his heart. Is it really good to have a holiday without notice? What if some of the old customers come to me?

Sending Ouyang Kang away with worry, he turned back to the house and sat down, but Lai Xi said a little sullenly, "If we don't come out of the stall, I'm afraid Brother Wan and they won't be able to eat." ”

She said that Brother Wan is a few regular customers who must arrive every day, they are not rich people, they are single and have no relatives and friends to take care of, since they have been selling crystals for Nianfu, they have come to cheer at the point, and often joke that the Zhujia food shop is like their half daughter-in-law in the capital, as long as they get here, there will be a hot meal.

Thinking of this, Nian Fu couldn't sit still. Looking at the vast snow falling like a tuft, she gritted her teeth, "Go!" Go to the market! ”

Sister-in-law Lin disapprovingly persuaded, "With such heavy snowfall, it is estimated that many people will not go to the street, why should my sister go on this trip in vain?" ”

There are things to do, and there are things to do. Nianfu felt that even if he wanted to close the stall, he should at least talk to the old customers, instead of going home so quietly.

I ordered someone to prepare, but I saw Su Cheng standing on a wooden plank, holding a long pole, and coming from the courtyard with a strange appearance. Behind him was a small chair with wooden planks nailed under his sawn legs, and it was Du Chuan who sat on the chair.

Wangcai curiously turned left and right around them. Very interested.

Ha, it's a plow! Nianfu is completely convinced, this Su Cheng, is there anything in the world that he can't play?

"I want it too! Sir, get me one too, get one! ”

Su Cheng smiled, "Okay, I'll teach you to play when I go back and get a serious plow, but not right now." ”

Du Chuan said, "Such a big snow. I don't feel at ease if I don't go back and take a look. Lucky girl. You're going to have time to help me brew more bars. I'm afraid of such a cold weather, and many old customers are waiting for it. ”

Look at the little wolf cubs that are growing up and getting bigger. Su Cheng said with a smile. "Wangcai. Would you like to have fun with us? ”

Go play? The little wolf cub was so excited that he dug into the ground, yes! Let's go, though. Anyway, can you let it sit down too? It looks like a lot of fun.

"Go up if you want, and it's no problem to take you with you."

Wangcai excitedly picked up the back of the plow, Su Cheng held up the long pole, and with the force of a little downhill, he rushed far away at once.

Woohoo, the little wolf cub screamed so loudly that his voice changed tune, it was really fun! Ke Nianfu glanced at it sympathetically, silly boy, is Mr. Su's advantage so easy to take advantage of?

This question can only be answered when Wangcai is coaxed by Mr. Su to put on the reins of the official plow.

Watching them set off, Nian Fu also took people to Beishi.

Honesty is required to do business, which is not only to do what you promised others, but also to not do what you didn't promise.

When they rushed to the north market almost by the foot of Nianfu, they saw that there were already many old customers around the shop, and they immediately cheered when they saw them, and the big brother Wan who was remembered by the joy was also among them.

"I thought you weren't coming, and I was worried about what to do with this lunch. You haven't noticed it, many shops have posted notices saying that they are on holiday today, and now I see you, which can be regarded as reassuring. ”

Nianfu deeply felt that he was really right. How disappointed would these people be if they didn't come?

"How can you not come without saying hello? If we want to close down, we must say it in advance. ”

Even the guys who originally had some complaints could understand, and quickly began to unload and build sheds, and Nianfu took out a small notebook and began to record everyone's orders.

But when it was time to pay the money, Brother Wan gave a lot more, and said, "Don't look for it, on such a cold day, you have to be angry when you write, give more money just to add some charcoal money to everyone." ”

"That's not going to work." Nian Fu forced the money back to others, "I know that it is not easy for you, it is cold this day, and there are more places to use the money, so take it back." If you wait until you've made a fortune another day, and then come back to give a reward, I'm not welcome. ”

Brother Wan was very moved, "After so many years, this is the first time I have met a businessman who pushes money out. Okay, sister, I won't say much if I have more, anyway, if there is anything in the future, come and call me, I will definitely help. ”

Nianfu smiled and agreed, and began to write down the reservation for the next one.

In the snowstorm, the string of small colored flags surrounding the Zhujia restaurant is like a colorful little butterfly, and the snow-white steam and the aroma of various foods emitted by bursts of food bring people spring-like warmth.

In the middle of the day, Ouyang Kang also came over. With such a heavy snowfall, even Zixiao didn't dare to be naughty, and honestly walked over step by step.

Seeing Ouyang Kang's eyebrows, eyelashes, and hair all hung with ice ballast, Nianfu was quite funny, and the whole Santa Claus.

Ouyang Kang didn't know what she was laughing at, and he dismounted stiffly and shook off the frost and snow, "You want to go out for a walk, what does it look like?" I'm cold, get some food! ”

Gave him a hot soup and a hot meal, Ouyang Kang was full of food and drink, and finally relieved himself, and he didn't have time to blame his family for being disobedient, so he threw himself into helping.

Although there were fewer people than before due to the heavy snowfall, business was busier than usual because there were very few shops in the market. Ouyang Kang is such a new force, which is still very good.

But looking at all the markets in the capital, the best business is still the shops selling firewood, rice, grain and oil, and almost every household has a long queue at the door. Fortunately, thanks to Su Cheng's insight, he came back in advance yesterday, otherwise it would be a very sinful thing just to brave the heavy snow to queue up today.

It's just that although Su Cheng saw it in advance, he would not hoard it in advance and make such a natural disaster. However, many grain and oil vendors saw that the sky was not right and deliberately closed their shops. In order to make explosive profits. But for the common people, what can be done? I can only rush to buy as much as possible, and I can hoard a little bit is a little bit.

The snow has been falling one after another.

In the eyes of the poor, it is sad, but in the eyes of the rich, it is poetic.

After reading the menu prepared in the kitchen, King Jin was very satisfied and personally wrote an invitation, "Go, send it to Ouyang Gongzi!" ”

On such a snowy day, you can't do anything serious, and it's best to ask a beauty to come back for a drink. Touched the little hands.

It's just that the post was sent to the broken garden. Ouyang Kang was not there, so Su Cheng, who had just gone home, took the post and smiled, "Go back to your master." Just say it's coming! ”

The next man went back to his life. I heard that I got Mr. Suda's approval. King Jin became more and more happy. Even began to wonder, did Su Cheng also see that he had the prospect of inheriting the unification, so he was particularly blue-eyed towards him?

Think of it this way. became more and more fluttery, originally just wanted to invite the beauty to sit down and get along, but now it is directly associated with the Furong tent to spend the Spring Festival.

So what are you waiting for? Hurry up and set up the room! The best beauty, of course, you have to give the best treatment!

But what is the best treatment? The subordinate who did the work had an idea, and simply painted pepper paste in the room designated by King Jin, and put a pair of big red candles on the table, making it look like a marriage, and he was beaming.

In the corner of the Jin Palace, watching the people shuttling back and forth to be busy for the prince's new favorite, Xu Ziqian's heart became more and more cold. There was also a male pet from a maiko on the side who quipped, "Yo, Xu Gongzi, what's wrong with you?" The prince welcomed the newcomer, why are you not happy at all? I think when you came to the house, we were all happy to welcome you. For people like you who have studied in the country, why is this son inferior to us? ”

Xu Ziqian stepped forward with a blushing face, and punched the male pet with his hand. The male pet suddenly screamed, and then pounced on him and scratched his face and neck a few times. The person in charge came over for a while, but he couldn't help but order someone to drive Xu Ziqian back to the room and lock him, and even the charcoal fire diet was deducted.

Xu Ziqian angrily slapped the door and window, "Dog minion, why are you closing me?" ”

But the man in charge ignored him at all, or the male pet came over proudly to show off, "Don't be so uninteresting, okay?" The prince wanted to drive you away, what do you mean by staying here? Although I have a lowly status, at least I am still knowledgeable and interesting, and even if the prince has a new favorite, he is willing to keep me. But you are so uninformed and interested, and you look like a jealous woman when you see that the prince wants to accept a new favorite, don't you still think that you are the princess of the prince? It's really a joke, to put it bluntly, who is more noble than whom? ”

He scolded happily and walked away with a high spirit, but Xu Ziqian was in the cold room, clenching his fists, looking embarrassed, but his eyes were becoming more and more ferocious, "I'm different from you, I'm different from you!" I ......"

What can he do to get ahead and not be looked down upon?

Palace.

As soon as the beggar envoy Haas Chaolu left, Gao Xian's brows tightened, and he turned back and forth for an unknown number of times, and suddenly seemed to have made up his mind, "Spread Su Cheng into the palace!" ”

So, before he went to the dinner table, Su Cheng was pulled away by the anxious little eunuch.

"Don't wait for me, hurry up and eat!" hurriedly threw down the sentence, Su Cheng turned around and was thinking, he was afraid that the emperor was looking for him, what was the matter.

But he never thought that it would be such a militaristic event.

In the end, it is the Son of Heaven, no matter how troubled he is, it can be seen that when Su Cheng arrived, Gao Xian's face had calmed down.

briefly explained the matter to him, and said, "The beggar envoy has just entered the palace and confirmed the news sent by the border guards. This year's snow disaster does not seem to be God's target, and the snow disaster on the grassland is even more serious. At present, there are already seventeen tribes on the grassland who are determined to form an alliance and send troops to our Daliang to plunder. I am not afraid to fight them, but if it is really as Aiqing said, this heavy snow will also cause heavy casualties to the people of my Daliang, I am a little hesitant. ”

Su Cheng already understood what he meant, "Then the emperor wants to agree to the request of the Qiyan tribe, support their family, and disrupt the deployment of other families?" ”

Gao Xian nodded slightly, "I also know that in this way, the Qiyan tribe will be strengthened, and I am afraid that it will be a problem to raise tigers in the future." But right now, it's really not a good time to send troops. ”

Su Cheng nodded understandingly, "Internal and external troubles, of course, you have to settle down before you can free up your hands to go outside." ”

"That's it!" Gao Xian quite had a resonance to find a confidant, "But this beggar tribe is also afraid that we will not keep our promises, and insist on forming an alliance with me in Mingzhou, Aiqing thinks that how much success can this matter have?" ”

Su Cheng didn't speak, but walked to the imperial study to look at a geographical map of mountains and rivers hanging in front of it, and then counted left and right with his fingers, and told Gao Xian at the end, "Seven points." ”

Seeing Gao Xianwei's head, he explained, "Your Majesty, please see, from Mingzhou to the capital, the fast horse can arrive in about five days, even if the weather is unfavorable at the moment, if it is delayed for two days, it will be half a month's matter to come and go." If Qiyan was not sincere, he would not choose the location so close to Jingshi. If they want to use this to set a trap to murder the emperor and take advantage of the chaos in the world to invade Daliang, it seems unlikely. After all, their current losses are heavier than ours, and they need our food and grass to survive the winter. Second, they don't have the strength to swallow the beam in one bite, and the price of such a feud is too huge. Otherwise, unless they were coerced, the minister felt that the success of the matter should be 10%. ”

"That's good." Gao Xian's eyes lit up, "Then Aiqing will accompany me on this trip!" ”
