Qingyunlou, the largest restaurant in the city, is also the pillar industry of the Wang family, and it is making money every day. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
In the best box of Qingyun Building, in the Ziyun Pavilion, Wang Hui and others were sitting opposite each other, leaving the first place, and everyone had prepared wine and food in front of the table, waiting for Zhang Zai.
When Zhang Zai arrived with the three of them, it was already evening, and Qingyun Building, which should have been full at this time, did not have a single diner, and when asked the reason, he knew that this was specially arranged by Wang Hui.
"Haha, you have been waiting for a long time, it's too late, wait for three cups of self-punishment." As soon as he entered the door, Zhang Zai said with a big smile.
When everyone in the room saw Zhang Zai and his people coming, they all got up to salute, whether it was true or false, giving Zhang Zai enough face.
After a period of greetings, everyone sat down again, Zhang Zai looked at Wang Hui sitting beside him, and said, "Mr. Wang, can you introduce everyone here?" ”
As the initiator of the banquet, regardless of the purpose, this introduction work is naturally indispensable.
He sat on the first seat on the left side of Zhang Zai, and the Han Dynasty respected the left, so it was natural to start from the left.
"This is Wang Bao, the governor of Yanmen, and he is also a son of my Wang family."
"I've seen Taishou-sama." A burly man stood up and said.
"Wang Duwei, please take a seat."
"This is the head of the Xu family in the north of the city."
……
After some introduction, Zhang Zai found that although the number of families here is not as good as Taiyuan, it should not be underestimated.
After Wang Hui finished introducing the head of the family, he looked at Zhang Zai and asked, "I don't know what the three people around Master Taishou have any current positions?" Can you tell me? ”
"That's nature!" Then introduce the three of them to the head of the house one by one.
After everyone introduced, the banquet officially began.
After three rounds of drinking, Wang Hui clapped his hands, and a group of dancing girls swayed and moved in.
These dancing girls are dressed differently from those of the Central Plains, wearing silk and light veil, and their faces can be vaguely seen, full of exotic women's style.
The box was large enough for the dancers to perform, and the dancers began to dance to the sound of the musicians' beautiful music.
Although their dancing posture is not very beautiful, it is completely different from the dance of the Central Plains Dancing Queen, raising their hands, lowering their waists, frowning willow eyebrows, as if they are happy or unhappy, they will not be angry, they want to refuse to rest, and they are full of charm between a smile and a smile.
Rao is accustomed to seeing modern large-scale dance, and the first time he saw such an ancient and graceful dance, Zhang Zai was also dizzy.
As for the other people in the lobby, they were even more unbearable, completely intoxicated by the dancing girls, except for Xue Rengui and Zhang Liao beside them, the two martial artists had strong resistance to dance beauty, and their eyes were clear, and even Xu Guangqi was a little confused in his eyes.
After the dance, everyone was still immersed in the beautiful dance, and the dancing girls had quietly withdrawn, leaving only a fragrant breeze in the room.
Everyone who came back to their senses glanced at each other, and they all saw the embarrassment in each other's eyes, but they heard Zhang Zai laughing loudly: "Haha, Mr. Wang, it is a blessing to raise such a wonderful dancing girl, this exotic dance is integrated with the Central Plains dance, but it is also quite interesting." I don't think these people are Han Chinese, right? ”
Wang Hui saw that everyone in the room was looking at him, their eyes were also curious, envious and even covetous, his eyes were full of pride, and he said with a chuckle: "My lord, this is a few months ago, when I went to Liangzhou, I saw a nobleman from a small country in the Western Regions, bought it from them, and brought it back for half a year to train it, and then reluctantly adapted a dance that blended the cultures of the two countries. ”
Hearing Wang Hui's words, several family heads had secretly made up their minds to let Wang Hui send them a dancing girl, even if it was to help them train a group of dancing girls.
Wang Hui took the opportunity to ask, "I wonder what adults think of these dancing girls?" Why don't you send a few with adults in the next place? ”
Zhang Zai smiled, glanced at the people in the room, sighed and said: "Forget it, now that a certain person has just been in charge of the affairs of the Taishou Mansion, and the officials in the mansion are very serious, and there is a lot of backlog of official duties every day, where is there leisure time." ”
Then he stood up, bowed to several family heads, and said, "Please also ask the family heads to recommend some talents in the clan, which will be reused." ”
Several family heads glanced at each other, but Wang Hui replied: "We should have fully supported the adults, but most of the people in the family have already become officials, and if there are still people who are willing to be officials, we will recommend them to the adults." ”
"Yes, yes, yes."
Then Wang Hui asked about the policy of Yanmen, and Zhang Zai said solemnly: "I am ashamed of the grace of heaven, and I should do my best to encourage production, enrich the people and strengthen the army, guard Yanmen for Your Majesty, and prevent foreign races from messing with the borders of our Celestial Empire." ”
Then he looked at Duwei Wang Bao and said, "This matter still needs the full cooperation of Duwei Wang." ”
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say."
A wine banquet was eaten for an hour before it ended, and after Zhang Zai left, several family heads did not leave in a hurry. Several people gathered in a room.
"Master Wang, whose family is this Taishou?"
Of several families, only the Wang family has the ability to inquire into these things.
"There is news from Luoyang, this Zhang Zainai is a member of the eunuch party, and his name as a taishou and general is all promoted by the eunuch party." Wang Hui told several people the news he had discovered.
"Then we really want to let the clansmen go into the Taishou Mansion on an errand?"
Strictly speaking, they sheltered under the command of General He Jin, and although they did not have a good impression of the members of the eunuch family, they did not reach the point of life and death.
"Just send a few people in, and as long as he doesn't suppress us, we don't have to pay attention."
The words were divided into two ends, and the four people who returned to the Taishou Mansion did not go to rest, but discussed the next arrangements.
"My lord, will they send someone to serve in the Taishou Mansion?" Xue Rengui and Zhang Liao were a little puzzled.
Zhang Zai and Xu Guangqi looked at each other and smiled, and Xu Guangqi replied: "They will definitely send people, but they should be mediocre." ”
"They really recommend some talents, and we don't dare to use them."
Both of them are smart people, and a little bit, you understand.
Sure enough, the next day, just after dawn, someone came to the Taishou Mansion with the letters of recommendation from the heads of various families, and after some conversation, sure enough, most of them could only do some work as a small official.
Arrange them to do some auxiliary work in each Cao, and as for the prefects and adjutants of each Cao, Zhang Zai and Xu Guangqi discussed and planned to post a recruitment list.
The recruitment list is also known as the order to seek talents, since the beginning of the Shang Zhou Dynasty, the Gaozu of the dynasty has also issued a "recruitment edict" throughout the country, so Zhang Zai issued a recruitment order in all counties of the county.
"Carrying the emperor's order in Yanmen, did not taste the grace of heaven, but wanted to resist the alien race, but the manpower is weak, the strong enemy is watching, deceiving my people, the beginning of the view of the virtuous is not in the wild, willing to wait for the vacant position, but the scholar has a short, now only the move, he has a sycamore, looking at the phoenix to come."
His move immediately caused a sensation in the township, and many families looked at it, but after reading the recruitment order, some people disdained it, some people scolded it, and some people secretly admired it.
As for the poor students who had no way out, they rushed to the Yin Pavilion overnight, and for a while, they were too guarded by the house.
