After many days of recuperation, Su Lin's illness has been cured, and Jade Scale has been helping out in the workshop during this time, but he has also learned a lot of things, and he has gradually become familiar with the hired worker guards, and Jade Scale is also nicknamed "Young Owner".

Su Lin is also indulgent in this matter, after all, Jade Scale, as his cousin, should also have the ability to take charge of himself, and if the business grows big in the future, someone will help take care of it.

After all, it is inconvenient for Su'er and Fang's mother to be women's families, and they are also easy to be taken advantage of in business.

In the past few days, because of illness, Su'er has not allowed herself to run around, and Su Lin has been at home, that is, in the morning, to stay in the tofu shop.

With Su Lin's suggestion and help, the tofu brain was also made, with a little chopped green onion and a little hot sauce made by Granny Fan, and the steaming tofu brain was soon loved by the public.

Especially after Yang Lao and Zheng Gong, who occasionally came to buy tofu to eat, ate tofu brains, they ran here every morning, and over time, many people actually formed the habit of eating breakfast, of course, this is a later story.

Every time he came to the tofu shop as a guest, Zheng Gong would take advantage of Su Lin in line with his relationship with Liu Yan, and would show off in front of Yang Lao, causing the two to quarrel all the time, and finally it became a unique scenery in Su Ji in the early morning, and Yang Lao would "teach" Su Lin every time before leaving, as the price for Zheng Gong to show off.

For example, Mr. Yang will always ask some questions about national affairs for Su Lin to answer, and as long as Su Lin makes a slight omission, he will be seized by Mr. Yang, grabbing his braids and scolding him, explaining to Su Lin while scolding.

Occasionally, because of the fierce quarrel, Su Lin stepped forward to persuade him - even if he didn't go sometimes, the second elder would pull him to comment on who was right and who was wrong, and what they were arguing about was a state affair...

In fact, Su Lin also knew that Yang Lao hoped that he would become an official and serve the country in the future, and these were just the experiences he instilled in Su Lin.

On this day, Elder Yang and Elder Zheng Gong came again, and Su Lin was ready to avoid it from a long distance, but Yang Lao's eyes were very sick, and before he stepped into the threshold, he said, "Where are you going, Su boy?" The old man is not polite when he comes? ”

Zheng Gong on the side was also helpless, if he wanted to talk about cheating, he might have to dump Yang Lao's eighteen streets, but if he wanted to play bull's temper, he couldn't compare to half of Yang Lao, at this time, he looked at Su Lin, who was trembling and leaning on the top pillar, full of sympathy.

"Uh...... Ha, Senior Yang, Senior Zheng, your second elder is here again...... Haha, the small shop is shining! Su Lin smiled awkwardly, shrunk his neck, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

Yang Lao didn't eat Su Lin's set, he and Zheng Gong casually found a table and sat down, took out chopsticks and knocked on the table, and said, "That plain girl, come and have two big bowls of hot white jade tofu brain!" ”

"Wait a minute, senior." Su'er is also very respectful to these two living treasures, but because she is well-behaved and cute, she is deeply loved by the second elder, Su Lin was pulled by the second elder and said: "Don't let the old man know that you bully Su'er, otherwise ......"

Then he gritted his teeth and made a threatening gesture, as if he didn't leave after school.

As usual, the second elder talked about things while eating, and then because of a disagreement somewhere, they actually argued again, this time Yang Lao said everything reasonably, but Zheng Gong was stunned, he suddenly turned his eyes, looked at Su Lin, and said, "Why don't you and I listen to what Wen Bang has to say?" ”

Su Lin was frowning with Su Er there, and at this time he sighed, drooped his head, as if he was sick, dragged his body step by step, and walked to the table of the second elder and sat down.

"Wen Bang, Your Majesty wants to form an alliance with the Jin State and the Yuan State to destroy Liao, can you talk about this matter...... " As soon as they sat down, Zheng Gong and Yang Lao said in unison, and then, the two of them were stunned for a moment and turned their heads to each other, "Hmph, old thing!" ”

Yang Lao believes that the Liao and Song dynasties have been allies and brotherly states for many years, and although there have been occasional border conflicts in the past hundred years, they have been relatively peaceful, and now they should deal with Yuan Jin together with the Liao State.

The meaning is obvious, the situation between the Liao and Song countries for many years has been broken by these two countries, so what the Song State has to do is to restore this balance with the Liao State.

However, Zheng Gong believes that the Liao Song and Ming Dynasty are brothers' states, and in fact there is an enmity against the heavens, and the covenant that has been made has made the Great Song Dynasty pay tribute to the Liao State for a hundred years, such as silver taels and cloth, so now is the best time to restore the sixteen states of Youyun and the shame of the snow.

When Su Lin heard this, he was shocked in his heart, although there was an additional Yuan Kingdom, but as soon as the Liao Kingdom was destroyed, Yuan Jin would inevitably put the next step on the Great Song Dynasty, wouldn't it be another "Jingkang"?

Now Su Lin doesn't ask about the government now, but he doesn't want the scene of the mountains and rivers being broken, although the second elder has been retired for a long time, he still has a few opinions in the emperor, and this matter seems to have to be said.

The second elder has not experienced the bloody reality, and there has never been anything similar to "Jingkang" in this world, but there has been an example of the former alliance of the dynasty to recover the rivers and mountains, so the Jin Song alliance and the court accounted for more than seventy percent of the votes.

"The two seniors, Su Lin is short-sighted, and he will talk about it today." It is rare for Su Lin to be so solemn, different from the previous two elders, this is a matter related to the survival of the country, in his world, the Great Song Dynasty can still survive, but there is more uncertainty about the Yuan Kingdom here, so it is difficult to ensure that the Great Song Dynasty can successfully defend in the south of the Yangtze River.

Seeing Su Lin like this, the second elder also put away his usual appearance of finding faults, but listened attentively, although Su Lin was still a junior, some of his ideas were novel, even ahead, which made them feel like they were suddenly opened.

Su Lin said: "Liao, Song, Xia three kingdoms have been exchanged for a hundred years, occasional conflicts and offenses, but there will be no major events to destroy the country, now the Yuan and Jin have risen strongly, and this balance will be broken, if my Great Song is strong enough, maybe I can unite the Yuan and Jin, recover the rivers and mountains and even carve up the Liao State......"

Speaking of this, Su Lin took a sip of water, and seeing the thoughtful appearance of the second elder, he continued:

"However, the fact is that the Great Song Dynasty has been weak for a long time, and although it is conducive to the stability of the country, the armaments are relaxed, and even the strongest Western Army does not dare to face the edge of the Liao Iron Cavalry."

Breathing out lightly, Su Lin's face was solemn: "If the Liao Kingdom is a wolf, then the two kingdoms of Jin and Yuan are tigers and leopards, and my Great Song Dynasty is just a sheep in the eyes of the Three Kingdoms." Maybe the Liao Kingdom only wants to keep sheep in captivity, but the tiger and leopard want to gnaw all the sheep bones......

"The reason why the Song State and the Khitan have been in balance for a hundred years is because the monarchs of the two countries for a hundred years have not had such great ambitions, and only seek the peace of the country and the people, but the Yuan and Jin have just been founded, and their monarchs are all ambitious figures like Song Liao Taizu......"
