Chapter 997

All the people maintained their posture and did not move, watching Su Dongpo, the old driver, slowly stand up, carry his big hands, and walk around the stove leisurely, still muttering in his mouth.

At this moment, Wang Daguan couldn't help but be a little flustered, and subconsciously pulled Zong Ze, who was sitting next to him. "Master Zong, how much did Su Xiang drink?"

"It should be, it shouldn't be a lot, I estimate that it's only about a catty, what's the matter, Lord Wang, are you worried about ......?"

"Well, I'm a little worried, this old man shouldn't be alcoholic, right?" Wang Yang raised his hand and scratched his chin, it didn't seem to be quite like it, after all, the symptoms of alcohol poisoning should be unconscious.

But what is Su Dongpo's strange situation? Pre-stroke? Like, Alzheimer's? Not...... Far from it.

"You stinky boy, don't talk nonsense there and arrange the old man, believe it or not, I'll beat you......" Su Dongpo, who was worried about the country and the people, and considered national affairs, directly made Wang Yang's babbling conjecture angry, and almost kicked it over.

"Hehe, uncle, it's okay if you're fine, isn't the little nephew caring about you......" Wang Yang laughed dryly a few times, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he was really afraid that this old man would worry about the country and the people to go crazy.

"The old man has an idea, hahaha......" After angrily reprimanding Wang Yang just now, perhaps because his thoughts were clear and his thinking was more agile, Su Dongpo suddenly burst out laughing.

"Su Xiang, what idea did you come up with?" The Planter Dao, who was silently brushing up on the experience points of internal affairs, couldn't help but ask.

"Of course it has something to do with this kid." Su Dongpo pointed like a sword, pointing at Wang Yang proudly.

"Me?" Wang Yang looked confused, could it be that this old driver was thinking about some demon moth again.

"The old man is in this Shaanxi Road, I'm afraid he won't stay for long, but I'm worried that your kid is uncertain, and he will pinch the newly arrived Shaanxi Road Passage to appease the envoy, so it's only been a long time."

"But if you stay any longer, you won't be able to stay for long, and the court will choose someone to come over after all." Speaking of this, Su Dongpo couldn't help but sigh lightly.

"The land of Yan, You, and Hong is under your management, and the prospects are very good, but now the three states of Yin, Shi, and Long, which have just been incorporated into the territory of my Great Song Dynasty, have just suffered from war, and most of the people have left these three states with the Western Xia rout, and there are few people left."

"It can be said that all industries are withering and all kinds of waste are thriving, at such a time, if an unfamiliar official is asked to deal with it, do you think he can let you, the pacification envoy of the three states, extend his hand to the land of the three states?"

Wang Yang looked at Zong Ze, and after Zong Ze also glanced at Wang Yang, he nodded gloomily. "What Su Xiang said is very true, I'm afraid that when the time comes, we want to ask Lord Xiao Wang for advice, but we will offend our boss. This is also a trivial matter, but if the boss interferes, then it will be a big matter to the people who have migrated. ”

Wang Yang's face couldn't help but be gloomy, and his eyes fell on Su Dongpo's body. These are all practical problems, could it be that Su Dongpo, the old driver, has already thought of a good way to deal with it?

"So, the old man is going to ask the court to play, so since Beiliao dares to set up a Hedong Road in the north of us, why can't we set up a North Shaanxi Road here?"

"North Shaanxi Road?" Wang Yang was stunned for a moment, and then reacted. "What do you mean by merging the land of the six states of salt, You, Hong, silver, stone, and dragon into one North Shaanxi Road?"

"Yes, that's what it means, and the old man will recommend you to the court as the pacification envoy of the North Shaanxi Road."

Hearing this, both Seed Master Dao and Zong Ze couldn't help but light up their eyes, and their eyes fell on Wang Yang's body.

And Wang Yang's eyes also lit up, and he quickly stood up and solemnly saluted Su Dongpo. "I don't dare to quit if I want it."

"If it can really succeed, then Wang will definitely do his job conscientiously, so that this land in northern Shaanxi will become another rich hometown of my Great Song Dynasty."

Su Dongpo stroked his long beard, patted Wang Yang's shoulder, and said with satisfaction. "Yes, this is the Wang Wushan that the old man is optimistic about, he has always been hypocritical and faced difficulties."

"If it can really be done, then Zong Mou will be much easier, and he will definitely have to move around this side a lot in the future......" Zong Ze couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, with this little Lord Wang who recommended him as his boss, then things must be much smoother.

"This boy, it seems, is where he goes, and as long as there are new things that are useful, he can think of ways to make the most of them. These things are really real, and they feel warmer and tighter than filling the linen cloth......"

Gao Tao looked at the young eunuch in front of him, and this eunuch was Zhao Xu's henchman Ma Shangma. He was dressed like a cotton ball man. He wears a cotton hat on his head, a cotton coat on his body, cotton pants on his bottom, a pair of cotton shoes on his feet, and of course a pair of cotton gloves on his hands.

It's just that this kind of thick cotton gloves are not divided into five fingers, only the thumb is separated, and the remaining four fingers are a set, which is quite similar to the boxing gloves of later generations.

Zhao Xu, the Son of Heaven, circled around this guy with great interest, but after turning around for a long time, he finally realized that something was wrong. "Grandmother Huang is right, hey, you kid, I didn't scare you or yell at you, why are you sweating coldly."

"Your Majesty, slave, this is for the heat...... Please also ask Your Majesty to take off this body ......," said the man of Marchand, with a sad face.

"Is it that hot?" The Son of Heaven glanced back at the copper furnace with a faintly red hearth not far away, and then he was relieved. "Let's take it off......"

Ma Shang happily agreed, and quickly took off this thing to the side, to tell the truth, it didn't take the effort to put on the pillar incense, and the clothes inside were almost soaked with sweat.

No way, after all, this is a winter dress worn outside, and the warmth is naturally excellent, but now it is as warm as spring in this Spring and Autumn Palace, and Ma Shang will only feel that life is worse than death when he wears this thing, and he will not feel warm.

"Such a set of equipment that is enough to withstand the cold outside the house in the bitter cold land of Saibei is only four or five hundred yuan, which can indeed be regarded as a good price." Zhao Xu, the Son of Heaven, picked up a brand-new cotton glove from the side, put it on his hand and shook it, which was very novel.

"No wonder Wang Wushan was talking about selling wasteland and making a lot of money before, I thought this kid was fooling, and as a result, those lands that can't grow food can actually grow this kind of cotton that can be woven into cloth or filled for heating, really, it's really a bit unexpected......"

"This is also true, in the past, although cotton cloth was strong and durable, but this price is really not what ordinary people are willing to accept." Gao Tao said deeply. "I remember when the mourning family was young, I used to wander around the cloth shop, and I still remember that the price of cotton cloth at that time was comparable to that mid-grade quality silk."
