?r?tm? F?,JB; ?q??? 3? (f6?? O?? 53? {?#? N? U??? ~Hvn6?? n?8?? Futai! ”

As soon as Mei Guozhen got off the horse, these people stepped forward one after another to greet Mei Guozhen.

Stretching out his hand not to hit the smiling person, Mei Guozhen is also well versed in the way of officialdom, so he said with a smile: "It's cold, how can I bother you to greet you outside?" Hurry up, hurry up and go in together to warm up, if it's freezing somewhere, it's a mistake! Hahaha! ”

After saying this, everyone smiled, and they all complimented Mei Guozhen and invited him into the Kang's mansion.

Today, I learned that Mei Guozhen was coming to visit, and the people gathered in the Kang family's mansion were the heads of the entire Shanxi Jin Shang family in Datong Town.

The power of Jin merchants is all over every city in Shanxi, and it is quite normal to have a main contact point in Datong City.

Mei Guozhen has been here for three years, and he is also familiar with the people here, and he has never troubled them, of course, some of their filial piety, Mei Guozhen basically does not accept them.

So they often use the army as a reason to send cattle wine to the army, which can be regarded as a stammer, there are not many of them, and it is always a face-saving project, which is to be done.

Mei Guozhen also means this, he is not greedy for enjoyment, he can eat and dress warmly, but the soldiers of the army cannot fight if they are not full and clothed, which is unacceptable to him, he doesn't want those silk and satin, and they can't sell it at a good price locally, so it's better to have grain and cattle wine.

Mei Guozhen doesn't bother everyone, even if it's good, otherwise, if someone else comes, he has the right to transfer troops, and if he really wants to cut first and then play, everyone doesn't want to be his companion.

It is best for everyone to take what they need when they have nothing to do, so Mei Guozhen's face, they must give, and under an order, the businessmen gathered in Kang's mansion.

The literati are so elegant, Mei Guozhen is no exception, in wartime you can endure hardships and sins and drink wind and sand, in peacetime, listening to small songs and drinking small wine, it is also a rare enjoyment, Mei Guozhen does not refuse.

The person in charge of the Kang family, who knew the meaning of this, still had a very good heart, and the charcoal fire rose in the Kang family's mansion, which was warm, and the cold outside were like two worlds, and they also called the best dancers and musicians to play a beautiful song together.

The banquet has already been prepared, as soon as Mei Guozhen and Ma Gui take their seats, all kinds of dishes are served to the large dining table in the center, and there are some small tables next to the rest as a foil, so as to have a good time.

Mei Guozhen looked at the table.

What a luxury!

Not to mention the meat, eggs, and soup that are absolutely not seen on the table of ordinary people, fish and crabs, some dishes in the south of the Yangtze River, and old cellars, this table of meals with big fish and meat, converted into silver, how many soldiers can be paid, and how many people can be given food to eat?

Mei Guozhen sighed secretly.

"Futai, Futai has been in our Datong Town for more than three years, and in the past three years, we have been deeply taken care of by Futai, so that we can do business safely in this place, and our lives are guaranteed, and we have not missed the requirements of the main family.

It can be said that it is deeply favored by Futai, in the past, we people did not know how to repay Futai, since Futai is here today, there are some things, Futai must be accepted, things are not expensive, but it is always a little heart. ”

The leader of the Kang clan said with a smile on his face to Mei Guozhen.

"Oh? And what else is there? ”

Mei Guozhen drank a glass of wine and asked with a smile.

"That's nature."

The Kang family clapped their hands, and immediately some people brought up some boxes, and the boxes were placed next to Mei Guozhen, and the Kang family took the contents and introduced them one by one-

Mi Fu's words, Huang Tingjian's words, Su Shi's inscription paintings, as well as the pen and inkstone that are said to have been used by Su Shi, and some other famous calligraphy and paintings, as well as some copper antiques, gold and jade vessels are not, money is also not, but these things, far more valuable than gold and jade vessels and money.

Can this also be considered invaluable?

I'm afraid that this is true in the eyes of ordinary people, but in the eyes of literati who know goods, these are priceless treasures, which can be met but not sought.

"Actually...... That's true! These...... But they're all priceless! ”

Mei Guozhen was amazed.

"How, these 'ordinary objects' can still be in Futai's eyes?"

The Kang family smirked.

"Hehehe, is this still an 'ordinary object'? If this were an ordinary object, that book would have been read for so many years! You've got a heart. ”

Mei Guozhen played for a while, then reluctantly put down his hand and expressed his gratitude to the kind old squires at the table.

Ma Gui's eyes were a little wrong.

"Hahahaha, it's best if Futai likes it, these ordinary things will be sent to Futai Mansion after the banquet is over."

Mei Guozhen didn't hesitate much, nor did he say whether he was willing or not, he raised his glass and said: "Your enthusiasm has been experienced, and I would like to thank you for your hospitality." ”

The people in the lobby suddenly stood up, drank this cup with Mei Guozhen, and then sat down happily together.

After chatting for a few words, Mei Guozhen poured a glass of wine again, held it in his hand, and the Kang family, who had a very good eyesight, immediately realized that Mei Guozhen had something to say, which was probably what he wanted to do today, so the Kang family immediately shouted: "Quiet!" Be quiet! Futai has something to say! ”

Not to mention anything else, the price of this eyesight is first-class.

As soon as Mei Guozhen stood up, the entire hall fell silent, and the singing and dancing stopped.

Mei Guozhen nodded with satisfaction and raised his glass.

"Ladies and gentlemen, you should also know that in recent years, the weather has changed abruptly, the weather has become colder, the weather is cold, the grain in the ground is not easy to grow, and it has not yet grown, it was frozen to death, so last year and this year, the grain harvest in Guanzhong and Jinzhong was extollen in a large area, and the people were everywhere, and the hunger was everywhere.

However, the duty of this fu, is to defend the border of the country, Datong Town is one of the nine sides of the Ming Dynasty, since the beginning of the country is to guard against the north of the south, there are Datong Town and Yanmen Pass, you can protect the Jin in the middle of the loss, a few years ago, so the governor Wang Chonggu and the good Tumut Department, so that the leader of the three ladies led the department for my Ming Dynasty to take the initiative to defend the border, to ensure decades of stability, thanks to the people of the country.

However, last year and this year, the Tumut Department was also the same as my Daming, suffered a disaster, the grain was lost, the cattle and horses froze to death, and it was difficult to survive the winter.

Yesterday, the three ladies came to Datong to ask Benfu for help, you must have already known, Benfu is really powerless, can't bear to see the border war, Governor Wang decades of planning to destroy in a flash, so I came to borrow grain from you, and I hope you will be generous to lend Benfu enough food, with food, Benfu will be able to ensure that Jinzhong is not lost, Datong is not lost. ”

After finishing speaking, Mei Guozhen raised the wine glass and drank it all, showing the wine glass to everyone.

"Ben Fu does it first for respect!"

Then Mei Guozhen sat down, looked around at the expressions of the squires and wealthy people around him, and his heart sank suddenly.
