"The little nephew is just a small people, how dare he talk about state affairs in vain."

Lin Mu just wants to make a fortune now, he doesn't want to gnaw on steamed buns but he the prime minister's heart, what is the use of him as a humble person talking about state affairs like fireworks?

Liu Jiangbai saw Lin Mu's thoughts at a glance, and he smiled: "The rise and fall of the world, the husband is responsible, today's visit of the virtuous nephew, the right is the gossip between you and me at noon, there is no need to be restrained." ”

"Since Uncle Liu is interested in listening to the little nephew's nonsense, the little nephew will talk about it casually, if he says the wrong thing, Uncle Liu will treat it as the little nephew is drunk."

In Lin Mu's view, the apparent reason for Liu Jiangbai's demotion was drunkenness and misconduct, and the main reason was that his political views were not recognized by today's officials.

He didn't want to talk about this topic, but looking at Liu Jiangbai's appearance, if he was excited today, the effect of his visit would definitely be greatly reduced, and it would be difficult to say how much risk Liu Jiangbai could take for him in the future business in Jiangning City.

After all, it is one thing to be gracious, and it is another thing whether Liu Jiang Baile is willing to help him, the son of a benefactor.

Seeing Lin Mu loosen his mouth, Liu Jiangbai stroked his beard and chuckled, and asked the housekeeper to serve a few dishes and take two wine glasses, which had the posture of cooking wine and talking about heroes.

Lin Mu smiled bitterly in his heart, he thought that he would not have to make the other party happy in order to maintain his connections through ancient times, but he didn't expect that he would have to pick up his old business on the third day, which really responded to the saying that there is nothing new in the sunshine between ancient and modern times.

A plate of peanuts, a plate of cucumbers and a plate of broad beans, two wine glasses, Liu Jiangbai picked up Lin Mu's Moutai.

For him, this wine he has never seen before is definitely not a famous product, but he doesn't care, just wine.

"This bottle is exquisite." Liu Jiangbai unscrewed the ceramic bottle cap and filled himself with a glass, and the pure liquor made him a little surprised.

In the Chinese Dynasty, the first thing to distinguish the quality of wine is to look at the purity of the wine, the purer the wine, the better, like the green ant wine with green wine residue floating on the wine, but ordinary people drink wine.

"Virtuous nephew, this wine doesn't seem to be ordinary." Liu Jiangbai smelled the wine again, and then put away his contempt.

"It's not a secret, this wine is brewed by the Lin family's ancestral secret recipe, but before it can be sold, the Lin family ......" Lin Mu showed a sad look at the right time, and began to make up nonsense, the Western caravan obviously couldn't cover up all the things he took out, so the Lin family's ancestral secret recipe came out, and the combination of Chinese and Western was perfect.

Liu Jiangbai nodded slightly, "Your father did say that the Lin family's family business relied on things passed down from his ancestors, and now it seems that he will not deceive me." ”

Lin Mu almost couldn't hold back his laughter when he heard this, he just said nonsense, he didn't expect Liu Jiangbai to contact what Lin Mu's father said.

The Lin family relied on ancestral prescriptions to make a fortune, which is true, but it is not true otherwise, but it is a good thing for him that he can associate so much.

"Therefore, as long as the Lin family's bloodline is still there, the Lin family can make a comeback." Lin Mu indirectly indicated his intention.

Liu Jiangbai glanced at Lin Mu more, he had been in the officialdom for many years, and his ability to listen to sound and distinguish meaning was perfect, so he naturally understood the meaning revealed in Lin Mu's words.

Quietly, Liu Jiangbai took a sip of the wine glass at this time, and suddenly froze, "This wine is full of fragrance when drunk, the taste is soft and delicate, the body is mellow and has a long aftertaste, it is really the best in the wine, even if it is not as good as the imperial wine in the palace." ”

Liu Baijiang's praise is very pertinent to Lin Mu, the ancient wine-making equipment cannot be compared with the contemporary, so the contemporary is more accurate in the time and temperature control in the wine-making process, and the high-quality wine is naturally the best in ancient times.

"If my uncle likes it, my little nephew will send a few bottles next time." Lin Mu was secretly happy, this step was the right one.

Liu Jiangbai showed a greedy look, now he was reluctant to drink these two bottles of wine casually at noon, and asked the housekeeper to put away the other bottle, so he poured a glass for Lin Mu painfully.

However, Lin Mu's words made him suddenly happy, "Virtuous nephew, you still know your uncle's mind best, come, you and I will not get drunk today." ”

After that, he picked up the wine glass, Lin Mu didn't dare to be rude, and drank with the wine glass.

After a glass of wine, Liu Jiangbai remembered something, and he said: "It's all interrupted by this wine, but I forgot about this state affair, what is the opinion of the virtuous nephew, you might as well talk about it." ”

Lin Mu is a person who has come over, from the posture of drinking, he can see that Liu Jiangbai's wine is not very good, while he is not drunk and scolding, he thought for a while and said: "Now that there is a Jin country in the north of the Hua Dynasty that invades every year, and there are ships and guns outside the Xiyi smuggling opium to plague the country, and under the danger of overthrowing the nest, today's officials are favored and traitorous, and do not think of change in order to be strong, and still follow the ancestral precepts to emphasize literature and light on martial arts. ”

When Liu Jiangbai heard this, his movements froze for a moment, and when he raised his head, he said excitedly: "The views of the virtuous nephew coincide with mine, so how to deal with such a crisis?" ”

For Lin Mu, the current Hua Dynasty is similar to the Southern Ming Dynasty, which lasted until the nineteenth century, but it was the Southern Ming Dynasty of the Song Dynasty.

In such a special feudal Han dynasty, he did not have any historical facts to draw on, and could only deduce with his own knowledge.

"Shiyi's long skills are self-improvement, middle school is the body, Western learning is used, the people, scholars, and officials rule the world together!" Lin Mu's words are sonorous.

Today's Hua Dynasty is still a feudal dynasty, and the feudal dynasty represents the backward productive forces, the people who have no concept of home and country, with such a system in the nineteenth century mixed is very difficult, coupled with the overall backwardness of science and technology, the difficulty of survival is basically hell level.

However, in Lin Mu's view, the Hua Dynasty is not hopeless, because the Hua Dynasty is a Han Dynasty and there is no need to worry about provoking the revival of Han people's consciousness like the contemporary Qing Dynasty.

Therefore, using this trick, at least the cohesion will be raised to a higher level, and if the imperial court actively innovates, removing the old and welcoming the new, the future changes will not be very pessimistic.

"A good middle school is the body, Western learning is for use, and a good teacher is good for self-improvement." Liu Jiangbai's eyes were full of appreciation for Lin Mu, "The ancients said that there is more than enough in the countryside and is honest and does not deceive me." ”

"Uncle praised it, this is just a little nephew's drinking words." Lin Mu, as a person who has come over, naturally stands high and sees far.

"No, no, no, the virtuous nephew is modest, and few of you can see through your high opinion, even if you are a member of the court." Liu Jiangbai seemed to have found a confidant, "Virtuous nephew, you might as well talk about it specifically." ”

Liu Jiangbai's performance was seen by Lin Mu, and he vaguely understood why Liu Jiangbai was demoted.

Now that the official camp in the court was divided, some enlightened scholars felt the crisis of the Chinese dynasty and were seeking change, while some scholars were stubbornly conservative and resisted any change.

It is estimated that Liu Jiangbai was seized by his opponent in the party struggle and came to an impeachment package.
