Chapter 331: Idle and bored to have fun
"Xiaobao, this place looks really good, what do you think it would be like if Dong Zhuo hadn't burned this place down at the beginning?" Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, who returned to their homes in Luoyang, began to watch Luoyang City, although it was not as good as the current Chang'an City.
Wang Juan looked at the way people came and went, and asked Zhang Xiaobao.
Zhang Xiaobao didn't think about this at all, the news from Tubo came back, he was worried about how Han Whirlwind's illness was, whether he needed to send someone to pick him up, if he wasn't worried that Han Whirlwind's sick body would be easy to get worse on the road, he would have been brought back a long time ago.
Since you can't adapt to the plateau climate, don't stay there, even if you survive this time, it is easy to leave hidden dangers.
Hearing Wang Juan's voice, he didn't react for a while, so he said: "Hurry up and finish, come back when the time comes, and don't send him there in the future." ”
"What's not to send? Ask you to burn Luoyang. Wang Juan knew that Zhang Xiaobao was distracted again, as more and more things happened, Zhang Xiaobao was distracted more often, and he had to take care of big and small things, and it seemed that he had to find a way to change his problem, and his subordinates, he was in charge of everything, and he had to die of exhaustion.
Zhang Xiaobao knew what Wang Juan said this time, and smiled, "Burn it, burn it, as long as it is built better later, no matter how it was at the beginning, He Yiwei should have done a good job there, it has been arranged, as long as he proposes something, he will support him first, even if this matter may not succeed, I will find a way." ”
"Who knows, there is no news yet, don't worry about this, look for snacks, and see if you have some special features." Wang Juan saw that Zhang Xiaobao had mentioned another matter, so he hurriedly interrupted and pulled him forward, stopping from time to time to see what the people who were setting up stalls on the roadside were selling, or going into a certain shop to take a look.
After a day of wandering in Luoyang City, the two tired people went back, and after eating, Wang Juan did not go directly into the house as before, but chatted with his mother, leaving Zhang Xiaobao alone in the house.
After thinking about it, Zhang Xiaobao was going to find Xiaobei and tell them stories, but when he saw Xiaobei and others, he found that Xiaobei was telling the adults the stories they had heard during this time, so Zhang Xiaobao had to change places to wander around.
After turning around a few times, Zhang Xiaobao, who found that he really couldn't find anything, had to go back to the house, light more lights, practice calligraphy, and wait for Wang Juan to come back and discuss other things.
Waited for an hour, when practicing calligraphy, time passed quickly, Zhang Xiaobao did not notice, waiting for someone from the yard over there to tell him that the little lady would not come back to live, Zhang Xiaobao only then found that it was very late, took a bath, and lay on the bed alone to prepare for sleep.
Zhang Xiaobao, who had insomnia, thought about it, and finally knew what was wrong, and sighed "Hey~!" Sometimes habits are the most uncomfortable, sleep, relax, relax, relax. ”
Early the next morning, everyone got up, and Wang Juan also found Zhang Xiaobao and said to Zhang Xiaobao: "Let's sleep separately these days, I have to be suitable." ”
"Huh? What to adapt to? Zhang Xiaobao was very uncomfortable, there was no one next to him, and he always felt that something was missing.
"What else can I adapt to, when I was chatting with my mother last night, my body reacted." Wang Juan was suddenly a little embarrassed.
Zhang Xiaobao disagreed, "I thought something was wrong, didn't you just grow up, okay, you adapt first, do you need to make up something?" Jujubes, saffron? ”
"No, I'm ready, I'll sleep with you at night when I'm used to it." Wang Juan became shy like a different person, and after speaking, he didn't accompany Zhang Xiaobao, turned around and left, not knowing what he was busy with.
Zhang Xiaobao, who felt very unaccustomed, shook his head and said to himself: "Isn't that what it is? Women, I really don't understand, when I grow up, time flies so fast, it seems like yesterday, do I have to go through the troubles of growing up again? ”
The troubles are not only Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, in the Sihai Academy, Yamamoto is very troubled, even if he has grown up, a few days ago he heard that the person who inquired about the news in Baoxin County came back and said that there was a kind of thing called honeycomb coal, which can save firewood, and he began to make trouble.
For two days in a row, the mood was not good, the money of 2,000 guan pressed in Baoxin County was not returned, if it was just in the past, it didn't matter if there was 2,000 guan or not, there was a lot of money at that time, and now the money is gone, and 2,000 guan is also important.
There is also the land that was bought, and there is no copper coin, and a sum of money must be given to the county every year, after all, it was said that it was used to open up wasteland and change fields, and there is no preferential kind, if you send someone to cut down trees, you have to divide a part of the living expenses that are only enough for the college, and life will be even more difficult.
Yamamoto, who was in a depressed situation, felt that the heat was very uncomfortable, and after pouring two large bowls of tea in a row, he still didn't feel cool, and walked out of the door, looking at the students walking back and forth in the empty courtyard of the academy, and in a trance, it seemed that he had come to another world.
"Yamamoto, it's better to sell the land in Baoxin County, and you can get some money back, the lives of people from our country here are getting worse and worse."
Just as Yamamoto was on the fugue, Yamaji, who also knew the news, came out of nowhere and said to Yamamoto.
"Sell? No, it must not be sold, the loss will be more if it is sold, it is developing there, and the land will be very valuable in the future, it is estimated that as long as you wait for another two years, no, one year, the price of buying at that time can be doubled. ”
Yamamoto didn't seem to have studied here in vain, and he still understood this truth, so he rejected Yamaji's proposal.
Shanji actually thought about this problem, but he also knew that if there was not enough money, many people from their own country here would not be able to study with peace of mind, and it would not be easy to come once, so he had to seize the opportunity, so he insisted:
"That money won't be considered money after a year, the important thing is that we are now, and it will take a few months for the domestic money to be sent, and we are still afraid of lack of money?"
He also understood that now was the time to use money, but he was unwilling to let any of the strategies he designed succeed after they got there, and no one seemed to be doing anything specifically for himself, just busy with the construction of people's livelihood, and as a result, his plans failed one after another.
This kind of blow in my heart is the most important thing, and seeing the serious look of the insistent Yamaji, Yamamoto finally compromised.
"Sell it, send someone over, find someone to ask, try to sell it at a high price, it is estimated that it will be difficult, because the firewood there is no longer valuable, and you will be content if you can sell it for a fee."
"Hey!" Yamaji happily agreed, and hurriedly went to someone to discuss the sale of land, he is specifically responsible for the life of people from the country to this side, and Yamamoto is responsible for the outside world, because there is no money relationship, he is under a lot of pressure, of course, Yamamoto's is not small, but it can't be uncomfortable for both of them, or solve their own affairs first.
Looking at the back of the departing mountain temple, Yamamoto did not wander this time, but lowered his head and thought about how he could make more money, no longer thinking about using big money to make a lot of money, as long as he could make the life of people from China better, he had time, because he didn't have to continue to learn what was taught in the academy, and if he wanted to learn, he had to learn better.
"Yamamoto, it's better to use the woodland as a mortgage in exchange for money, and the woodland will still be ours at that time." Yamamoto pondered, and another person came over and said to him.
"With whom to mortgage? That's a lot of money, even if the forest land is doubled, it is estimated that it is not enough to give out the money, sell it, sell it without worry, tomorrow I will go out to see, do some small business in the nearest place, and I don't know what business is good to make. ”
Yamamoto didn't think about it, but he found that he had paid more, so he had to admit that all his plans in Praise County had failed, thinking about buying some goods, and then setting up a stall here, he was also a character, and he was willing to set up a stall for his own domestic people when he commanded so much money and had no money to use, which is not an idea that ordinary people don't have.
"Yamamoto-kun, can you get the people of Silla to give us money? I found out that when I got up the night before yesterday, I saw a few Silla people gathered together to discuss things, and guess what they said? They actually wanted to do it in Changning County, and there was also a person from the Tang Sect there, who was ready to get benefits from there. ”
The visitor did not leave, but suddenly said a news that shocked Yamamoto very much, and after the visitor told the details of the matter, Yamamoto suddenly felt that the other party seemed to be better than what he had done in Koshin County.
"You mean......" Yamamoto asked in a low voice.
"Yes, it's the people who use this to threaten the people of Silla that if they give us money, we will tell them about it and make them fail." The visitor said excitedly.
Yamamoto's eyes also lit up, and he was about to agree, when he suddenly frowned and shook his head, "No, I can't go to them and say, once I say it, I'm worried that they will stop, and they won't give us money, we won't get anything, it's just that they won't get it either."
I want to see if Datang's Zhang Xiaobao is really so powerful, is it all a fluke to succeed before, I wait for Datang to lose once, will Datang suddenly turn around when the time comes? ”
Yamamoto was suddenly a little unwilling to accept his failure, and wanted to let Silla's people clean up Datang, even if he didn't succeed, he knew that Datang was not invincible, although this time Silla's people were not directly confronted by Zhang Xiaobao, but Zhang Xiaobao had already expressed his meaning very clearly.
That is, as long as there is me Zhang Xiaobao in Datang, all the people will be honest with me, don't think about crooked and evil calculations of my Datang people, it is estimated that once that Hou Ye finds out that things are not good, he will go to Zhang Xiaobao to see how Zhang Xiaobao responds?
When people heard it, they thought it was so, but there were other doubts in their hearts, suspecting that Yamamoto wanted to borrow someone else's hand to pull Zhang Xiaobao off the altar, because now many people are saying that there is one person missing from the top game list in Datang, and one person who is above the top, that person is Zhang Xiaobao.
Even if he defeats the first person, as long as he has not fought Zhang Xiaobao, it is not a victory, and Yamamoto is clearly unable to let others come out.
So he said: "Yamamoto-kun, don't worry about a failure, as long as there is still a chance to win." ”
"When did I fail, didn't I just take the technique of turning radish into ginseng? It doesn't matter what the means are, as long as it succeeds, it is a victory, but after buying seeds, radishes and thermometers, there is no money, so I also bought the cement that I don't sell outside Datang, did it fail? ”
Yamamoto said unhappily to the visitor, which meant that he had succeeded, albeit with the technology he had acquired by stealthily means.
"If you don't fail, then don't ask for money from Silla, Yamamoto-kun wants to do business, and he will do it with him." What else could the visitor say, so he had to agree and express his support for Yamamoto.
The two of them had just decided on the matter, thinking about doing some small business tomorrow, when another person who was collecting intelligence in Baoxin County hurried over, walked in front of Yamamoto, looked around, and saw that no one would hear him, so he whispered to Yamamoto:
"According to reliable sources, some time ago in Xincai County, Li Yu passed, and then left happily, I don't know what they talked about, and, I don't know who leaked the news, before I came, someone from the Zhang family came to me and said that I wanted to talk to Yamamoto-kun, if Yamamoto-kun wants to do something, they are willing to provide a solution."
"Huh?" Yamamoto was stunned for a moment, and then he was shocked, because he couldn't understand what Li Yu was doing in Xincai County, and what surprised him was that the people of the Zhang family not only knew where the people they sent there to inquire about the news were, but also understood that they had no money.
Yamamoto suddenly had a feeling that there was no secret at all, as if everything he was doing was in the eyes of the other party, and this feeling made him very uncomfortable, of course, it would not be comfortable for anyone else.
Taking two deep breaths, Yamamoto asked the person who came to report the news, "What conditions?" ”
"If we want us to land in Baoxin County, they said that as long as we give them the land, they will definitely be able to earn it in a short period of time when our fleet returns, and it will be abundant."
Someone answered.
Without waiting for Yamamoto to speak, the person who came over to talk about the matter just now spoke first, "Yamamoto-kun, I think I should agree, who doesn't know that the Zhang and Wang families have many ideas to make money?" ”
Glancing at this person very dissatisfied, Yamamoto's brows furrowed even tighter, and he said slowly: "What if they can only make a little money by making money, or even can't make money, and our land is gone, then what should we do?" Also, why are they in such a hurry to want a few plots of land? Is there something bigger going on? ”
The person who was about to promise just now really didn't expect that there would be so many questions, so he smiled awkwardly, "Then don't agree, we should do business tomorrow, and we will do our own." ”
"Don't agree, if Zhang Xiaobao was afraid that we would sell the land, so he deliberately proposed to use a method to exchange it, so that we can continue to keep the land so that we can set us?"
Yamamoto now feels that for Zhang Xiaobao, anything can happen, whether it is advancing or retreating, and he is very annoyed.
When the two of them saw that all the words had been said by Yamamoto, they stopped making a sound, and saw how Yamamoto decided, Yamamoto put his hands behind his back and began to circle in place, and after taking a few steps, he would stop, shake his head, and continue walking, and the two people who turned were confused, so they stopped and instructed the person who inquired about the news in Baoxin County.
"Go back immediately, find the people from the Zhang family who are discussing with you, and ask them if they want to buy it directly with money, instead of Fangzi."
"Hey!" The person who came said yes, turned around and hurried away, without resting.
Seeing the people leave, Yamamoto turned his head and explained to the people standing beside him: "If the Zhang family agrees to buy it with money, it means that they want those pieces of land to be useful, if they don't agree, it is likely to be digging a trap for us, wait for us to jump in, go back and study hard, you don't have to worry about the business and business." ”
The person who came nodded, also turned to leave, and went back to review his homework, he was still thinking about it when he walked on the road, according to Yamamoto's words, it was not bad, but what if Xiaobao could guess Yamamoto's thoughts, what if he deliberately used it?
After thinking about it, I finally didn't come up with a better way, and I hurried back to my room, this room was not for nothing, thirty times a month, a day of money, very expensive.
The person who was doing things in Baoxin County rushed back as quickly as possible, found Erniu, the person who is now in charge of things, and told Erniu about the matter, Erniu didn't have a surprised expression at all, and said to the visitor:
"It's okay to buy, but it depends on how much money, if it's expensive, it's not good, we really can't spare people to do new business in our family, otherwise it won't be your turn, the price we give is half of the original, if you want to sell, you can sell, if you don't want to sell, you can also use the recipe to exchange, or you can figure it out yourself."
The person in charge of inquiring about the intelligence already knew Yamamoto's thoughts, thinking that he could find out something from the other party's mouth, at least he could understand his attitude towards the woodland, but he didn't expect this Erniu to be tepid, saying that he was not in a hurry, he always mentioned the matter of the woodland, saying that he was in a hurry, and he was trying to lower the price.
What's going on?
"It's better to let Yamamoto come over in person, there are many things that you can't do as a messenger, and you waste time tossing back and forth." Erniu saw the other party's thoughts and said to him.
The person who came sighed, nodded helplessly, and had to run towards the Four Seas Academy again, and it would take a long time to go back and forth.
Waiting for the person to leave, Er Niu smiled and muttered, "You must not have thought of it, right?" This thing is not ordered by the little boy at all, I am idle and looking for some interesting activities, whether I sell the land or not, the main thing is to make your hearts not collapse, and idle is idle. ”
"Xiaobao, let go inside." Zhang Xiaobao was still preparing to sleep alone today, and they all lay down, when Wang Juan suddenly appeared, stood on the side of the bed, and pushed Zhang Xiaobao hard to let him go inside.
"How many days have you passed?" Zhang Xiaobao moved, looked at Wang Juan and asked.
"Well, I don't sleep well over there, and it's troublesome to discuss something, I heard news from someone today, saying that Li Linfu is about to arrive at the place, and Cui Rizhi, the two of them met together, and now there is a lively look, I don't know who can be better in this confrontation, I think it's Li Linfu, he has a lot of eyes, and he doesn't show it on the surface, he is really an insidious person."
Wang Juan lay down next to Zhang Xiaobao, and found that it was still comfortable to sleep here, so he pulled Zhang Xiaobao's arm and pillowed his head on it and said.
Zhang Xiaobao was also solid, and when he heard Wang Juan mention the two people, he replied: "I guess the county lieutenant sent is not a good man, and if he doesn't get it right, he can still play a very useful role, don't underestimate others, this time we won't go back first, and see what kind of chaos can be made over there." ”
"Now? When I think it will be Cui Rizhi who wins first, after all, we have prepared Feng Changgong's fault for him, as long as he does not lack a heart, he can arrange and understand, even if Li Linfu has the ability to turn the sky upside down, he does not dare to protect Feng Changgong directly, his most appropriate way is to temporarily stand on Cui Rizhi's side and clean up Feng Changgong fiercely.
In this way, he doesn't have to worry about being targeted by the imperial court, and then find another opportunity to bring the balance back, I believe he can, and when we go back, we will be equally careful when dealing with him, who made his reputation so famous. ”
Wang Juan chose one person, in the first round, Cui Rizhi won, and Li Linfu endured.
Zhang Xiaobao adjusted the posture of his arms and said: "If Li Linfu is really as powerful as you say, I estimate that he will be able to find a way to save Feng Changgong in the first round, he is still young now, and he should not be able to reach the level in the future, right?" ”
"Who knows, wait and see, give me some blanket, I thought you lived alone, and slept." Wang Juan pulled the blanket towards him, yawned, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Zhang Xiaobao wanted to turn around, but found that his arm was suppressed, so he had to face up, looking at the ceiling that was slightly illuminated by the moonlight outside, and gradually fell asleep.
The person the two people were talking about was also on the road overnight at this time, sitting on the boat, which was less than twenty miles away from Xincai County at this time, and it was estimated that he would be able to enter the county tonight, find a hotel there to rest, and take over early tomorrow morning.
They carried Feng Changgong's county order, a master book, and a county lieutenant's order, and they could take over the position when they arrived at the locality.
Feng Changgong didn't sleep at this time, since he sent the letter and money to the people above, he got a reply from above, telling him who would come, tell him to be careful, don't make mistakes, especially not to recognize the wrong person, and show the bad side.
Estimating the days, he has been taking people next to Rushui every day to watch the progress of the construction site, in fact, he is waiting for the people sent from above, he hopes that the people sent can arrive at night, in that case, he can arrange the place where the other party lives, first find the people on his side to discuss, if it is daytime, then there is less buffer time.
Tonight was no exception, the three of them stayed bored by the river, listening to the noise coming from the construction site, watching the busy scene, or counting the stars, and just when they thought that the people sent from above would not arrive today, a boat with many lanterns appeared upstream
