Chapter 091: Thick and Fine (II)
As soon as Ma Fang said this, Ma Qi finally understood, and suddenly realized: "I see...... Gao Pragmatic's little guy needs such a thing to make a name for him, and with a resounding name, he has the opportunity to be the prince's companion! ”
Ma Fang smiled and twisted his beard and said: "He is a member of the Gao family in Xinzheng, judging from the fact that Gao Ge Lao took him by his side to personally train him, he should be the leader of the next generation of the Gao family." Then he will definitely not follow the path of Enyin Guan in the future, and sooner or later he will have to refer to it. Generally speaking, since you are participating in scientific expeditions, your reputation in the past does not make much difference...... However, that means that it is not very useful for the results of its scientific examinations, and it has to be confused anyway. ”
When he said this, he narrowed his eyes slightly, and said, "However, the gaze of our little boy is terrifying...... He wasn't thinking about whether he could pass the imperial examination at all, but about his reputation after being a high school jinshi. ”
Ma Qi looked at his handsome man dumbfounded, and asked in a daze, "What ......is this?" How so? ”
"How so?" Ma Fang laughed and nodded: "You think, whether this reputation is good or bad will not affect future exams anyway, generally speaking, who cares?" However, our little boy not only cares, but also attaches great importance to it, and even borrows a group of family members to pacify Liu Weiming's pacifying horses, which is not for the future, and why? But what is his future...... It's almost doomed, there is only a single-plank bridge in the high school gold list, so isn't he thinking about it after high school, what is it? ”
Ma Fang paused for a moment, and then said, "As for you saying that he made this reputation in order to be the prince's companion...... If there is no book "Dragon Whip Shadow", there is some truth. But as you just said, the book has spread in the capital, although I haven't read any books, and I can't tell what is good or bad when I show it, but since even those people in the Hanlin Academy haven't jumped out to find fault, it can be seen that it is still a bit powerful - since he can do it with his ability, what else do you do with those who don't? ”
"Oh......" Ma Qi's clothes suddenly realized, but he immediately revealed his stuffing again: "But if he is so capable, and can become the prince's companion with his ability, and thinks that he will definitely be able to be admitted to the imperial examination in the future, then what is the use of these names now?" He has now become the prince's companion, even if people don't take him seriously in their hearts, at least they will give the prince a face, as long as it is not those court officials, no one will be stupid to find his stubble. And if the court officials are concerned, even if they find faults, they will go to Gao Ge Lao, how can they ignore their identity and worry about a child? That being the case, this reputation ...... No matter how good it is, it's useless! ”
"So you still don't understand the routines of those literati." Ma Fang said: "Tell me, our generals are very famous, what's the use?" ”
Ma Qi said: "That is naturally useful, for example, the warriors from all over the world come to vote, and for example, the enemy army is invincible when he sees my banner, and so on." ”
Ma Fang raised her eyebrows and asked again, "What about Wenchen's reputation?" ”
"Wenchen ......" Ma Qi was stunned and scratched his head: "Dashuai, don't say it, humble ...... It seems that I really don't understand what the reputation of Wenchen is for. ”
Ma Fang sneered and asked, "Is there any science and Taoist official who has eaten enough to support him, and Shangshu Shengshang said that Hai Gangfeng was corrupt and took bribes?" ”
Ma Qi was stunned again, and subconsciously said, "How is it possible?" How could Hai Gangfeng be corrupt and take bribes? Then Yushi is afraid that he didn't accept other people's black money to slander Haizhongcheng, right? ”
"You see, that's the power of fame." Ma Fang laughed: "Even if it is falsely accused, others don't believe it at all...... Do you still think that fame has no effect on Wenchen? ”
Ma Qi suddenly realized again: "So that's the case!" But immediately there were new doubts: "But the reputation of this tall young man is not the same as Hai Gangfeng, his reputation seems to be ...... And it doesn't have that effect? ”
Ma Fang twisted his beard and asked, "Then what do you think is the effect of his reputation?" Or the old man asked, what kind of person do you think he is after listening to his deeds? ”
"I think it's ...... to be lowly," Ma Qi thought for a while and replied: "Actually, I don't feel much about it, I just think that this young man looks very smart and bold enough, and he is worthy of being the nephew of the old man." ”
"Look." Ma Fang clapped his hands: "Isn't that the end, smart, bold, and the heir to the mantle of the Gao family." ”
"Oh...... Dashuai is saying, this is what he wants? ”
"yes, that's what he wants." Ma Fang nodded and added, "But you're not done. ”
Ma Qi hurriedly said: "Humble and dull, please give me advice." ”
Ma Fang unhurriedly took out a gilded greeting post from the desk and said, "I won't show it to you, anyway, you know fewer words than the old man." This letter of worship was sent by Bailixia, and Cao Gan wanted to see me...... Guess what his signature is? ”
Ma Qi was stunned, and subconsciously said: "What can Cao Gan's signature be, it's not Cao Ganbei." ”
"The greeting he gave me in the past was paid by Cao Gan, who was small in Baili Gorge." Ma Fang laughed and raised the greeting note in his hand: "But this time, his signature is 'Cao Gan, the little steward of Baili Gorge in Sanshenyuan'." ”
Ma Qi was surprised: "Sanshen Garden? Whose property is that? How did Baili Gorge come under the name of this Sanshen Garden? ”
"It seems that there is a problem with your investigation in the capital." Ma Fang frowned and said: "This Sanshen Garden is the Cherry Spring Courtyard donated by the young man of Gao Pragmatic, and the name was changed by himself. He divided the Cherry Spring Courtyard into Shensi Courtyard, Shenyan Courtyard and Shenxing Courtyard according to the upper, middle and lower floors, and Baili Gorge was also taken under his name, and now it seems that it is probably treated as another courtyard, and Cao Gan is the steward of Baili Gorge Courtyard. ”
Ma Qi was taken aback and hurriedly asked, "That's a big trouble!" Dashuai, there is a ...... between Bailixia and us Uh, and even if Bailixia won't sell us, what will we do if we want horses here in the future? ”
Ma Fang glanced at him and suddenly laughed. Ma Qi scratched his head inexplicably: "Handsome, lowly ...... Did you say the wrong thing again? ”
"No, it's not a mistake." Ma Fang smiled and pointed to the worship post, and said: "But you don't have to worry, because Cao Gan has already roughly said in the worship post, the relationship between Bailixia and us will only be closer in the future, and the cooperative business will expand a lot......" He paused slightly, showed a smile of interest on his face, and said slowly: "Moreover, this is our tall little boy who signaled him to do this." ”
"That's great!" Ma Qi was overjoyed: "With Gao Xiaogongzi's words, we will have a high pavilion boss in this matter in the future!" But suddenly he remembered something important: "But...... Didn't you say that the big marshal wanted to change guards with Zhao Zongrong? What about this business? ”
Ma Fang twisted his beard and said: "The old man and Zhao Zongrong are now under the umbrella of the Gao family, and I don't need to worry too much about this business whether I do it or him." But your worries are not unreasonable, after all, the army that needs war horses the most is our Ma family's army. ”
"Then let's ......"
"Cao Gan said it here, and Gao Xiaogongzi asked him to open the trade route of Datong." Ma Fang showed a mysterious smile: "This is really a coincidence!" ”
