In the afternoon, Cai Jianwen and Wen Yuan came to the mansion together and brought a news that made Mao Geng feel incredible, this news is that Sanyuanlou promised to sell half and give away four beautiful maids, these four maids are all fourteen or fifteen years old, regardless of musical instruments and songs, they all represent the good acting level of Sanyuanlou, according to the market market, the four beauties should be worth at least 1,200 yuan each, but Sanyuanlou only needs 2,000 yuan, such a good thing is really unbelievable.
However, Sanyuanlou also put forward a condition, that is, Sanyuanlou wants to get the lyrics and songs of "Poppy Beauty" and "Canghai Laughter", and if Mao Geng Wenyuan creates a new song, don't forget Sanyuanlou.
Wen Yuan didn't have time to think deeply, so he immediately agreed, because he no longer needed to go to Sanyuanlou to offer ugliness, he only needed to hand over the lyrics of the score to Sanyuanlou, and at most he would give one or two more pointers. But after agreeing, Wen Yuan felt that Mao Geng might have more wonderful songs there, for fear that his cousin would blame him for forgetting his righteousness or something, so he was worried, as if he had done something wrong.
Fortunately, Cai Jianwen accompanied Wen Yuan all the way back, which made Wen Yuan feel a lot more at ease.
Mao Geng felt that Sanyuanlou had a long-term vision, they engaged in such a hand, if they really have any new works, they would naturally give priority to talking to Sanyuanlou about the conditions, and the people in the scene figured out and grasped people's psychology really have something unique.
In this way, there are six young maids in the house at once, Yingying Yanyan, at least it looks eye-catching.
Mao Geng and Cai Jianwen were polite, not only happily let Wen Yuan fulfill the request of Sanyuanlou, but also promised to give away a new song in the past two days. Mao Geng could sing only a few Song songs in his previous life, but Li Qingzhao's song "A Cut of Plum - Red Lotus Fragrance Residual Jade Autumn" can be hummed, Mao Geng is ready to hum and interact with talented beauties, maybe they can compose the song. When Mao Geng thought of this, he couldn't help but feel a flutter.
Cai Jianwen took the scores of the two songs and left satisfied, he only had Shen Weibing in his heart, and when he thought of the happy appearance of the beauty seeing the score, Cai Jianwen couldn't help but smile to himself.
------
In the evening, Mao Geng and Wen Yuan took a sedan chair to the door of Zhou Bida's Prime Minister's Mansion, and when they got off the sedan chair, a small servant led the two into the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Mao Geng explained to Wen Yuan before he came here, talk less and listen more tonight, because if you talk too much, you will lose, and you can't give people a handle.
thought that the two of them arrived at the earliest, but who knew that 6 You, Ye Shi and Yang Wanli had already arrived, and the two hurriedly apologized. Zhou Bida laughed and said:
"The two young talents faced the official family in the palace that day, and their words and demeanors were very calm, why did they become restrained when they came to the old man! Come on, come on, please be seated! Look at the tea! ”
After the two sat down, Zhou Bida pointed to 6 tours, Yang Wanli and said with a smile:
"The two of them are the old man's poetry friends, but both of them do better poetry than me. and Ye Shi, the poems are also doing well. It's a pity that Fan Chengda returned to Shihu, otherwise the four great poets would gather, and the old man's house would be full of glory. ”
6 You, Yang Wanli, Fan Chengda, and You Yuan are also known as the "Four Great Poets of Zhongxing", and Mao Geng naturally knows it.
6 You smiled and said:
"It's a pity that the old man is old! Writing poetry is slower than in the past, but no matter how reluctant it is today, it is always necessary to make a fun. Alas! Seeing the two young talents, the back waves of the Yangtze River pushed the front waves, which made the old man feel terrible. It is said that the official family loves to listen to Brother Mao's "Laughter in the Sea", and today is convenient, why don't you ask Brother Mao to sing a song "Laughter in the Sea" for us! ”
Zhou Bi laughed and said:
"I've heard about it, too. How is it? Brother Mao, sing a song for us today! ”
Mao Geng didn't expect to encounter this kind of thing as soon as he came up, so he had to bite the bullet and say:
"In this way, that Xiao Ke will be ugly, but Xiao Ke sings a song, and Wen Yuan has to play the piano."
As soon as Mao Geng said this, someone immediately brought a piano. As long as Wen Yuan doesn't sing, the piano still makes it look good, but its performance is far less than Chen Liang, and Mao Geng sings this "Laughter in the Sea" quite a few experiences, thinking of people in the Southern Song Dynasty today, some people can't help themselves, want to laugh proud of the rivers and lakes but can't get it, there is a faint sense of anger in the song, listening to the ears of several poets and writers here, but there is an indescribable pride and desolation, when the song is over, they cheer together.
After Mao Geng and Wen Yuan finished their performances, they were modest, and immediately regained their demeanor of few words, as long as they didn't ask the two of them, they were just listeners, and they didn't say much.
Zhou Bida saw that the two of them were a little dull, of course he could guess the hearts of the two, although some people in the court said irresponsible things to Mao Geng and Wenyuan, but Zhou Bida is a person who cherishes talents very much, especially cherishes Mao Geng's talents, Zhou Bida can also be like Mao Geng's good, although Mao Geng's origin is a little unknown, but not like a person with bad intentions. What's more, judging from Mao Geng's strategy of attacking Taiwan, it is enough to reflect Mao Geng's heart for the Great Song Dynasty. Zhou Bida invited Mao Geng to come to the house as a guest, so he had the idea of taking care of Mao Geng, he was worried that Mao Geng would not be able to withstand the pressure of the DPRK and China, so he tried to comfort Mao Geng.
Zhou Bida immediately said:
"When I arrived at the old man's house today, I happened to bring good wine, come, serve wine, serve food, no matter how old or young, I have to drink a few glasses of him today."
As soon as Yang Wanli saw that he was going to drink, he was worried about the matter of the gold man buying the timetable, for fear that it would be delayed because of drinking, so he immediately said:
"My lord, yesterday the golden envoy told the lower officials that he wanted to buy a time watch, and today it happened that Mao Geng was here, before drinking, the lower officials had to have a settlement in this matter."
6 You heard Yang Wanli's words, and he felt angry in his heart, and couldn't help but smile bitterly:
"The Jin people took my Great Song Dynasty's New Year's coins, and then came to buy such and such things from my Great Song Dynasty, as soon as I thought of it, the old man was angry!"
Mao Geng heard 6 You's words, and said in his heart that this is really the true character of the old and angry, if it was changed yesterday, he would have to instill a "Taoguang Yanghui" with 6 You, but now he is in a bad situation, the important thing is that he Taoguang is obscure, so he didn't answer.
Zhou Bida looked at Mao Geng's appearance, thinking that Mao Geng had listened to what 6 You said, and was resistant to selling the watch to Jinren, which was not good, so he said:
"The old man almost forgot about this matter, Brother Mao, if the Jin people want to buy a watch, they will sell it to them, I think it's okay."
Mao Geng saw Zhou Bida's statement like this, and said in his heart that he was planning his own government in his position, and the prime minister was still focused on the overall situation, unlike 6 You who could talk about it, so he nodded and said:
"I don't know how many watches do you want to buy, if it's just forty or fifty watches, then it will arrive in more than ten days, but there are too many people who buy watches, since you want to buy them, let's get out of this batch of watches, if there are more, I'm afraid it will have to be a few more days."
Yang Wanli had already heard about the tight schedule, and now when he saw Mao Geng's statement, he was grateful, and said:
"Jin people want to buy eighty units, the first batch will sell them forty units, since these forty units are from other people's goods, the price should be raised, if Brother Mao thinks that the price will increase, I will tell Jin Ren."
Everyone here also felt that Yang Wanli should fight for Mao Geng's interests, and 6 You even felt that it was appropriate to raise the price by three or four percent on the spot, and Zhou Bida felt that it was a matter of face between Song and Jin, and the price of one percent was reasonable, and it would be inappropriate to increase it too much.
Mao Geng turned his mind away in his heart, and said in his heart that you don't know that the export price in later generations is much lower than the domestic price, don't you want to drag down the Jin people through guò economic means! Not only can it not curb the Jin people's imports to the Great Song Dynasty, but it is also necessary to greatly encourage it, once the deficit becomes large enough, the Jin people's economy will have problems, and then the political and military problems will have problems, which is called surrendering without a fight. Of course, these words can't be said, Mao Geng has to say it differently:
"This matter does not embarrass Lord Yang, let's follow the original price of three hundred and eighty-eight guan."
Everyone here felt that Mao Geng did not take the opportunity to raise the price, and he was really kind-hearted, and 6 You looked at Mao Geng again. It's just that 6 You is very sorry for the legendary Mao Geng's habit of breaking his sleeves, and today I watched Mao Geng and Wen Yuan sing and play, which invisibly strengthened this rumor. Originally, Wen Yuan reversed the female voice in Jincui Building that day, and some people felt that something was wrong, and then the more the matter spread, the more mysterious it became. But Mao Geng Wenyuan bought a huge mansion, and he had a lot of money, but he didn't even have a concubine in the mansion, so how can people not doubt it! It is rumored in the market that Mao Wen and the others have a habit of breaking their sleeves, and the good of Longyang is spread as if it is really true, but only Mao Geng and Wenyuan do not know. In fact, 6 You asked Wen Yuan to leave the "Great Song Jingbao", not because the DPRK attacked Mao Geng, but because he felt that Mao Wen and the two really had a habit of breaking their sleeves, in order to avoid the immorality of the Great Song Dynasty's education position, this made Wen Yuan leave.
The matter of the schedule was satisfactorily settled, and the banquet began.
Today's liquor is brought by 6 tours, but it is a new high-grade liquor after distilling alcohol, after Mao Geng tasted it, he felt that it was about 40 degrees, and I don't know how much these old gentlemen drank this kind of spirit liquor of this era.
The lethality of the liquor is really amazing, and soon Mao Geng will see that the face of the old gentleman 6 You turned red, and then Yang Wanli began to talk a lot. Yang Wanli talked about the Jin people again:
"These gold people still want to buy cement. Hum! How can it be as they wish! ”
Mao Geng drank a few glasses of stuffy wine, and he was a little dizzy at the moment, as soon as he heard that Yang Wanli's concept was so backward, he couldn't help but complain:
"Lord Yang, if the Jin people want to buy cement, then sell it to them. The more the Jin people bought things from the Great Song Dynasty, the more they were not far from the end. ”
6 You reminded:
"Brother Mao, didn't you drink too much! Cement is a good thing to build a city, and if the Jin people get this cement, won't they want to build the city as solid as gold! In this way, wouldn't it be a little more difficult for my Northern Song Expedition! ”
Mao Geng's wine strength also came up, and he forgot all the taboos, and said openly:
"The kid dares to say that ten years later, the Northern Expedition of the Great Song Dynasty, even if the Jin people built the city as solid as gold, they would not be able to withstand the onslaught of the Great Song Dynasty. Anyway, now you should sell the time watch, and sell the cement when you should sell the cement, and it won't get in the way! ”
6 You heard this, the old man was happy, and after taking a sip of wine, he said happily:
"Brother Mao's words are nice, but unfortunately it's exaggerated, but the old man --- like it!"
Mao Geng felt in his heart that how could he kill the Jin country in ten years, not only the Jin country, but even Mongolia would strangle it in the cradle! Mao Geng was full of pride after drinking, and said:
"Maybe it will take ten years, maybe it will only take eight years, and you will be able to dominate the Central Plains."
Where is the shadow of Mao Geng's words! Listening to it in the ears of 6 tours, it is simply arrogant. But 6 You dreams of the Central Plains of Beiding, of course, I hope this is true.
Ye Shi is still sober, he is a pragmatic person, and he only thinks Mao Geng's wild words are drunk crazy words, so he teased:
"Does Brother Mao also know the art of war? Jin Bing is not so easy to deal with. In my opinion, it is not too late to take Taiwan first, and then talk about the Northern Expedition later. ”
Mao Geng's brain was a little uncontrollable at this time, and when he heard this, he responded:
"Xiao Ke knows a little about some art of war, although it is inferior to Yue Fei, but it is enough to sweep away the golden soldiers."
