Chapter 219: Talking
At the mention of the imperial examination, the king's eyes darkened, but he returned to normal in the blink of an eye, and said with a smile:
"I just arrived in Chang'an the day before yesterday, but I didn't have the opportunity to participate in the imperial examination, although the Wang family is a big family, but I don't fight in the next place, I don't like to study since I was a child, I don't do my job all day long, and those businessmen downstairs are messing around, and today I also came for the five grains, but it makes you laugh." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”
An He didn't expect that the other party turned out to be a businessman, and listening to his words, he was a little self-deprecating, obviously a little contemptuous and helpless about his identity as a businessman.
It is not difficult to understand that the Tang government encourages industry and commerce, but on the other hand, it despises businessmen, so there is a strange phenomenon, that is, although everyone knows that businessmen are very wealthy, very few people are willing to take the initiative to join the ranks of merchants.
"Brother Wang's words are wrong, business is also one of the main businesses, if there are no businessmen to buy and sell the west, the others will not be mentioned for the time being, but the most basic word 'food and clothing' is enough to give the world a headache."
When An He said this, he reached out and put the food in his mouth, and chewed it slowly. He didn't discriminate against businessmen, and he knew the importance of businessmen more well, so he couldn't help but speak.
Wang Guo listened to An He's words, but his expression moved slightly, and he praised with admiration in his eyes:
"I didn't expect Brother An to see you so thoroughly at a young age, but you have seen the affairs of Shang Jia so thoroughly, and you have lived a few more years for your brother in vain, but you have been entangled in your identity, and today I heard Brother An's shocking words, and finally had a sense of enlightenment, please accept it as a brother!"
As he spoke, he stood up and saluted An He.
An He hurriedly got up to help, and said modestly:
"Brother Wang, please hurry up, the little brother is just an ignorant boy trapped in Chang'an, talking all day long, where can I stand Brother Wang's worship?"
But the king got up and said solemnly:
"Brother An, you are too modest, you have seen a lot of people for your brother, and you also have a little experience in the art of watching people, and I saw Brother An today. But it was a big surprise for my brother, in my opinion, Andi will not be a thing in the pool in the future! ”
If someone else compliments him, An He will definitely get carried away. But for Wang Guo, who praised him a lot when they met for the first time, An He was noncommittal, but smiled and diverted the topic: "
The younger brother was trapped in this Chang'an City all day long, and the elders in the family were not allowed to go out at all, but he didn't expect to meet Brother Wang today. Since Brother Wang, you have been running outside all the year round, you must know all the scenery inside and outside my Datang, can you explain it to my younger brother, so that he can open his eyes, and he will have the capital to brag to his friends in the future? ”
Seeing that An He didn't answer his words, a trace of embarrassment flashed in his eyes, but his concentration was excellent, and his face did not show any discoloration, and he still said with a smile:
"Hehe, since Andi is interested in local scenery. That brother will explain it to my brother today. ”
At this time, the king paused for a moment, and looked at An He's calm face as if he was listening very seriously, so he continued:
"Brother for the child to live in Taiyuan, where not far from the northern grassland, and those grassland tribes have frequent exchanges, adulthood for the brother to go to the most is also the northern grassland, the grassland is the strong respect, there is no morality between the tribes at all, often because of a trivial matter, the tribes on the grassland will face each other. Even at the cost of bloodshed......"
Although this king claims that he doesn't like to read, in fact, his literary accomplishment is extremely high, and he explains the things on the grassland, and the plot and characters are also very exciting. Ann and listened attentively.
An He originally just wanted to find an excuse to divert the topic, but he didn't expect that Wang Guo was indeed extraordinary, not only knew everything about the grassland, but also expressed his views on a certain matter from time to time, which was very unique and often refreshing. An He listened to the king's story. and then confirmed it with what he knew in later generations, which also made him have a deeper understanding of the northern grasslands of the Tang Dynasty.
Listening to Wang Guo's endless narration, this made An He can't help but have a competitive idea in his heart, and in the interval between Wang Guo's narration, he also inserted his own views from time to time, but just commenting soon could not satisfy An He's talk.
The things on the grassland Anhe is not to say the king's situation, but in the later generations of information explosion grew up in the Anhe, in terms of knowledge can be much stronger than anyone else, the grassland is not good, talk about overseas, Anhe from the mainland closest to the Taiwan Island, that is, the Tang Dynasty called the Liuqiu Island to start talking, and then to the Nanyang rich production, and then to the South Ocean as the central point, west through Malacca into the Indian Ocean, and then into the Red Sea and then into the Mediterranean, for the rise and fall of the Roman Empire, Anhe is a big talk.
To the east, starting from Oceania, talking about the peculiar species above, North and South America is the focus of the explanation, potatoes, peppers, corn and other crops of great economic value, rich gold, silver and other minerals, the mysterious Inca civilization and so on, the king is also amazed.
Although Wang Guo has only learned and has extraordinary knowledge, compared with An He, who is used to talking to others on the Internet, he is still willing to lose, after all, the amount of information that the two have come into contact with is not at the same level at all. An and this guy have a problem, as long as Kan Dashan's interest comes, the whole person will become eyebrows and dance, his face will be bright, his mouth is like a running train, and no one can stop the words endlessly. Wang was able to barely parry at first, but he was quickly defeated, and he was shocked by the magnificent overseas world in An He's mouth.
However, with the increase in the amount of information in An He's words, Wang Guan slowly couldn't keep up with An He's train of thought, and in the end, he was directly stunned by the continuous new terms in An He's mouth, and the whole person's brain became a mess, and he could no longer figure out what the relationship between Indians and Indians was? What is the relationship between the Baltic Sea and pineapples? Why is the Roman Empire obviously in the west of the Tang Dynasty, why can it go east to the Americas and then cross the Atlantic, and it can go to Rome......
Questions that transcended the times swirled in Wang Kuang's mind, and his proud knowledge in the past seemed so insignificant compared to these questions. Until the end, his mind was blank like a computer crashing, and he saw An He's mouth open and closed in his eyes, but he couldn't hear what he was saying at all, and even when An He said goodbye at the end, he didn't react. The poor child directly made An He a temporary idiot, and it is estimated that he will not be able to recover within three or five days.
Sitting in the carriage back to the house, An He drank tea comfortably, although he was very happy when he was talking, but his voice was a little unbearable, but thinking of the last demented expression on the face of the prince, An He still couldn't help but want to laugh. (To be continued.) )
