Fang Yingwu's concerns are mainly two. First, I am worried that Xu Da will be bold and have the idea of "extinguishing his mouth", it is easy to be a thief in a thousand days, and it is difficult to prevent thieves in a thousand days; Second, he is worried that Xu Da will continue to be entangled, this kind of unscrupulous villain with no bottom line is often more difficult to deal with than ordinary high-ranking officials and dignitaries.

However, when he returned to the house, Fang Yingwu didn't show any special expression, he didn't want his family to add to his troubles. Besides, the capital is complicated, and there are many shili, if you are worried about big and small things, and you are afraid of provoking someone, you will never be able to worry about it.

And the next day, Fang Yingwu and his entourage took a rented car to the capital. I was speechless all the way, and when I arrived at the tax customs outside Chongwenmen, I was exempted from the trouble of passing the customs because of my identity, and I didn't encounter any difficulties.

After entering the city again, Fang Yingwu guided the cart to the Zhejiang Hall not far from Chongwenmen. It stands to reason that he should go straight to his father, but he doesn't know the exact place, so he plans to settle down in the Zhejiang Guild Hall first.

Stepping into the gate of the Zhejiang Hall, I saw the rich Huang shopkeeper sitting in the front hall, bored and pulling the abacus beads; And under the big tree in the atrium, Lou Tianhua, a down-and-out literati who still looked so slippery, was bored and napping with his back against the trunk.

This scene is extremely familiar, which makes Fang Yingwu have some hallucinations of time reappearing, the first time he went to Beijing the year before last, and when he entered the Zhejiang Guild Hall, the picture was the same. Now it seems to be the old days again, but the seasons are different.

The shopkeeper Huang hadn't reacted yet, but Lou Tianhua, who was watching people eating, jumped up, jumped a few more times, and shouted at Fang Yingwu: "Ah! I heard the magpie cry early this morning, and it turned out to be a joy! ”

Fang Yingwu looked up at the sky in early winter November. Theoretically, there is a possibility that Lou Tianhua is not a migratory bird.

Fang Yingwu arched his hand and saluted: "Once the years have passed." Mr. Lou is okay, right? Are you still in the business of buying and selling news and dredging joint brokers? ”

Lou Tianhua shrunk his neck, sighed, and sighed: "The world is difficult now. It's a very difficult time. ”

Fang Yingwu couldn't help but laugh, looking very unsympathetic. Nowadays, although the court is deaf and disasters seem to have occurred in various places, it is generally in a period of economic prosperity and development.

At least he rarely hears others say that "the world is difficult", and today is not necessarily better than other times, but it is certainly not worse than other times.

He couldn't help laughing and said: "Today's prosperous times, Guotai and the people are safe, what strange thing did Mr. Lou say?" ”

Lou Tianhua shook his head and said: "The court is lifeless, and all the princes are messing around. It's all more than one thing, it's better to do less, full of harmony, and the local is full of virtuous and virtuous, and together we have a hard time doing business. ”

Fang Yingwu couldn't help but think of what happened to the capital last time, and thought it was true. felt that Lou Tianhua's words were full of deep meaning, and he thought about it for a while with his IQ before he thought it through.

The court is lazy and does not toss, and at the same time, the local people are all virtuous and good officials, which sounds beautiful, how did it become the "difficult world" in Lou Tianhua's mouth?

Later, Fang Yingwu figured out that the imperial court was a pool of stagnant water and did not fight. There is no need for news dealers like them, as for the Jinyi Weidong Factory, there is no need to get news from them at all. However, officials from other places do not go to Beijing to do business, and local people do not go to Beijing to express grievances. They are also the joint-beating brokers.

Of course, there is a deeper meaning from this sentence. Weishenme Today, the quality of the magistrate is good and high? That's because although the Son of Heaven is not a saint, he doesn't like to kill. Anyone who annoyed him because of his advice rushed to the place. Out of sight, out of mind.

As a result, a large number of virtuous ministers are scattered in the place, and they can only sigh at the Jingshi. For example, Fang Yingwu's cheap grandfather Wang Shu is a classic example. His old man has already forgotten what Jingshi looks like.

The virtuous ministers who were worried about the country and the people and dared to be mad were all driven away one by one, and most of the people left in the court were naturally Wan'an and Liu Ji. Only Kedao still retains a trace of clear stream, and from time to time shouts a few times in this era that is judged to be "dark" by Shilin public opinion.

Fang Yingwu waved his hand and said what Lou Tianhua wanted to hear the most: "Don't say much for now, I'll invite you to dinner tonight!" ”

At this time, the shopkeeper Huang, who was sitting in the hall of the Zhejiang Hall, slowly stepped forward, and the other party said happily: "I haven't seen you for many years, and I miss it." Until a few days ago, I saw the township test record sent by a friend, and Fang Gongzi ranked third, such a good result is really gratifying!

Now it is a good story of the father and son before and after the imperial examination, and when the spring of the next year is compared, if Fang Gongzi goes to high school again, it will be a good story of the father and son Jinshi! ”

Fang Yingwu said modestly: "Shopkeeper Huang praised it falsely. ”

Shopkeeper Huang smiled slightly, "It's not early today, and Ling Zun lives in Xicheng, which is still some distance away from the guild hall, so it will be inconvenient to rush there."

Fang Gongzi might as well rest in the guild hall for the night, I will send someone to Ling Zun to report the news, and then ask someone to lead Fang Gongzi over tomorrow, how about this? ”

This arrangement made Fang Yingwu feel very comfortable, and hurriedly thanked: "It's so thoughtful, there is a shopkeeper!" ”

He couldn't help but secretly praise in his heart, worthy of being the shopkeeper who can sit in the hall and preside, this kind of exquisite kung fu is really perfect, he hasn't said a word, he can arrange it all as if he had a foresight. But the last time I came, I didn't enjoy this kind of home-away treatment

After settling down, Fang Yingwu fulfilled his promise and invited Lou Tianhua to dinner. Of course, Fang Yingwu didn't invite him to dinner in vain, and he had to inquire carefully about the recent situation in the capital during the banquet.

As for Lou Tianhua, in the face of Fang Yingwu, an old customer and potential stock, he naturally knew everything he could say, but he was stumped by Fang Yingwu on an inconspicuous small issue.

"There is a Baoguo Temple in the capital, do you know? Or is it called Ciren Temple? Fang Yingwu inquired very seriously.

Lou Tianhua thought for a while, "Today, Zi Chong Buddha believes in Taoism, there are many monks in Beijing, and I have heard a lot about the major temples. I've never heard of this."

"Haven't heard of it?" Fang Yingwu was overjoyed, it seemed that this opportunity was still there, and continued: "Then I will ask you to inquire about the situation of this Baoguo Temple, especially the situation of the monks." As far as I know, Baoguo Temple is about to be in the southern part of the city, and it is understandable that it is not known. ”

Although Lou Tianhua didn't understand that Fang Yingwu Weishenme would pay attention to a small temple that was not well-known and only afraid that there were few monks, he never had the reason to push the business outward. He agreed: "Okay, I'll go to Nancheng tomorrow to find out the news." (To be continued......)

PS: Make up a chapter first, the idea is still a little slow, and the idea of a new copy in Beijing is almost hot, so don't worry...... Continue to code words tonight, and send them before work tomorrow morning.
