Chapter 3 Jia Gong, take a gamble

The muscles on Zhao Jiaren's face did not have the slightest tension, his hands were crossed with ten fingers, and his arms were easily resting on the table. However, if Jia Rudao had the ability to see, he could see that the tip of Zhao Jiaren's tongue was tightly pressed against the roof of his mouth, and all his emotions were vented here. And this move can also make Zhao Jiaren smile. So that the thirteen-year-old did not show the slightest excitement.

Jia Rudao's face was gloomy. Until now, the Southern Song Dynasty was very afraid of Mongolia. As Zhao Jiaren said, the Jin State was considered stronger than the Southern Song Dynasty before its fall. Now that the Mongols have destroyed the Jin State and occupied the old land of the Jin State, the overall strength is stronger than that of the Jin State. This is not just Zhao Jiaren's personal opinion, the entire court basically has such an opinion.

However, Zhao Jiaren gave examples of the national ancestors of previous dynasties, which no one has ever dared to do. His eyes drooped, and Jia Rudao was angry and scared in his heart. Zhao Jiaren just said, a royal relative, a national relative, how could the two rebel? It is precisely because the interests of both of them come from the Southern Song Dynasty that if the Southern Song Dynasty falls, neither of them will end well. Zhao Jiaren was not wrong, so this bloody fact made Jia Yidao extremely angry. Under such anger, Jia Rudao poured himself a glass of wine without raising his head, and sipped it by himself.

"Jia Gong, I suddenly understood one thing last year. Today's people always compare the six dynasties with the present, but today it is not the six dynasties, but the Chu and Han dynasties. At that time, Liu Bang and Xiang Yu were bound to decide the winner, and there was no possibility of two heroes standing side by side. Knowing this, I thought of the ferocity of the Mongols, and the thought of fighting such a strong enemy, I felt terrified. I thought that if our Great Song Dynasty was defeated, I probably wouldn't even be able to keep a corpse in the capital. I was scared at first, and then I was angry. I think there is such a reason in the world. Zhao Jiaren spoke.

After hearing this, Jia Rudao just snorted coldly, but did not answer immediately. Even if he admits that Zhao Jiaren is right, Jia Yidao is unwilling to face such a tragic situation. This anger naturally shifted to Zhao Jiaren, who exposed the facts.

Zhao Jiaren got up and poured a glass of wine for Jia Yidao, sat back in his seat and continued: "Jia Gong, when the corporal doctors are keen on empty talk. And Jia Gong, you know how to do things and how to do things. Mongolia is even more fierce than the Jin Kingdom. If we wait for more boasting, the result will definitely not be good. So I want to do things and do things for Da Song as soon as possible. In the entire imperial court, the only one who can help me is Jia Gong. Today, I am doing crazy talking, just hoping to let Jia Gong know my true intentions. ”

"Doing things? Hehe! Jia Rudao couldn't help but sneer, "Jiaren young Zaohui, since you can tell how to do things, you probably know how difficult it is to do things, right?" ”

Zhao Jiaren stared at Jia Rudao and replied seriously: "Yes, the time and place are favorable, if there are no these three things, it is difficult to do things compared to the sky." So I came to ask Jia Gong, because Jia Gong is an important minister, Jia Gong can let me have an errand, this is the time of day, otherwise at my current age, I can probably only stay in Lin'an for others to watch. After others read my rarity, they praised me for being a young man and talented, and I could only fake a few words of humility. In addition to wasting time, I was even more unhappy. ”

"For people to see...... Ha ha. Jia Rudao finally sneered from the bottom of his heart. His dissatisfaction with Zhao Jiaren was not a personal grudge, and it dissipated for a while, Jia Yidao continued to sneer and asked, "Jiaren must have missed me when he came here. But I don't know where Jiaren wants to be an official, so that he can do things. ”

Zhao Jiaren waited for Jia to finish laughing, and immediately followed: "The time has to rely on Jia Gong, and the location also depends on Jia Gong's help." At my age, even if I am put into a local official, I am like duckweed. It's hard to say if my boss can tolerate me, and the little officials below won't take me seriously. If I don't do things, it's fine, but if I do, I will definitely become the target of public criticism. After thinking about it, I only had a chance when I went back to Fujian to do things. But if I want to go back to Fujian to be an official, if I don't have Jia Gong's help, I don't even think about it. ”

Hearing this, Jia Rudao snorted again, he very much agreed with Zhao Jiaren's analysis. In the Song Dynasty, local officials were not allowed, because local people were local officials, that is, the head of the land encountered the storm. If you want to deal with the head snake, you have to have a strong dragon from outside. Even so, the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, which is also the norm in the Song Dynasty. As for Zhao Jiaren, a thirteen-year-old doll, even if he is a Jinshi, he is just a weak chicken. Throw him on the ground, and that will be eaten and wiped clean by all the local guys.

The time and place are favorable, Zhao Jiaren said the first two, but the third one doesn't need to be said. If Zhao Jiaren can really return to Fujian to become an official, his family is a big local family in Quanzhou, and he can do something no matter what.

Thinking of this, Jia Rudao smiled and said, "Jiaren, Ling Zun can teach you well. ”

Zhao Jiaren knew that this conversation had reached the final stage, so he sat up straight and said with the firmest attitude: "If you want to go back to the local government to become an official, I did consult my father. But I really want to do practical things, but I want to. Jia Gong, after the Mongol destruction of Jin, operated in the north for 20 years. Twenty years is enough time to settle the situation, how long do you think they can endure this? If they have a picture, who will they be? This is a situation where time does not wait, and I think that only Jia Gong can understand it in the current dynasty, so I ask Jia Gong to come here. If Jia Gong recommends, I will definitely be able to make some contributions, and I will not let people say that Jia Gong knows no one. ”

“…… What does that mean? Jia Rudao asked with a slight frown.

"My father was a strict ruler, and he scolded me for being cranky."

Jia Yidao suddenly showed a cheerful smile, "Jiaren, you are young and old." If this matter is Zhang Luo. The cost of the exchange is quite a lot, I wonder if Ling Zun can agree? ”

After finishing speaking, Jia Rudao looked at Zhao Jiaren with a smile. What Zhao Jiaren said was very credible, but Jia Yidao didn't bother to verify it. Things in the world are already annoying, where is the mood to bother for Zhao Jiaren, a hairy child. And no matter how extravagant Zhao Jiaren says, there is no emotion in officialdom, and it costs money to find a real shortage.

"Jia Gong. I made my own decision, and my father didn't know about it. If he knew, he would probably be beaten two or three times. Do you look like a person with savings and property at my age? Zhao Jiaren still told the truth.

Jia seemed to smile after hearing this, "Jiaren, if that's the case, I can't help it." ”

"Jia Gong. If you're willing to help, I'll write you a note you owe money. ”

"Notes?" Jia Yidao was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help laughing out loud, "Jiaren begged me to do something, but asked me to pay?" ”

"Nope. It's not about borrowing money, it's about gambling. I am betting on my future, Jia Gong is willing to bet on your eyesight? Even if he loses the gamble, Jia Gong can still get the money back. It's just a few years late. Zhao Jiaren talked eloquently.

Seeing Zhao Jiaren's expression of not being ashamed but proud of borrowing money, Jia Yidao unexpectedly felt close. He lost his father when he was a teenager, and when he was a teenager, he wandered with his younger companions and did a lot of ridiculous things. Although Zhao Jiaren, the little guy, has not yet reached the age of running around the streets, at this time he can't see the subtlety of the reader, but is full of the ruthlessness that fills the roaring streets.

After thinking for a while, Jia Rudao made up his mind, and he said in a deep voice: "If it is according to the system, Jiaren can probably be a county magistrate." It's just that you're young, and you really have to give it to the real shortage, probably the county lieutenant. I can only entrust this matter to someone, whether it succeeds or not, it is still between the two. ”

Jia seemed to hesitate, but Zhao Jiaren replied cheerfully: "It's okay." I wrote a document to Jia Gong, the county lieutenant Zhao Jiaren. ”

Hearing this, Jia Rudao couldn't help but widen his eyes. Staring at Zhao Jiaren, who was calm, Jia Rudao felt that the new Jinshi in front of him was simply a jinshi among the scoundrels. It's okay if you don't have money when you entrust someone to do things, and you can even write a new idea with an IOU. Jia Rudao sighed in a disgusted tone: "Jiaren, you can figure it out." ”

Zhao Jiaren saw that there was already a door to the matter, and he continued to push down, "Whether this matter is successful or not." I remember Jia Gong's friendship. If you can help Jia Gong in the future, please don't be polite. However, how many Jiaozi are needed for this need to be clearly stated by Jia Gong. ”

Jia seemed to say that he didn't mention the cost, he said bluntly: "If you want to have an errand, you must think that you are useful." Today's Xianggong is Ding Daquan. I don't necessarily have the right thing to say. ”

"I'm good at repairing canals. If Jia Gong can make Ding Daquan believe ......," Zhao Jiaren also replied frankly.

Jia Rudao stared at Zhao Jiaren for a long time before asking, "Ling Zun has always been square. I don't think it's Lingzun. Jiaren, you are really a teenager and an old man. But are you really willing to let Ding Danian get the benefits? ”

"What if he gets the benefit? Everyone knows that Jia Gong will pay homage to the prime minister in a few years. Before paying homage to the prime minister, Jia Gong always needs us to work together. ”

In less than half an hour, Zhao Jiaren left Jia Yidao's living room. looked at the back of Zhao Jiaren leaving with smooth and powerful steps, and then looked at the loan document with the payment of 'County Lieutenant Zhao Jiaren'. Jia Rudao actually felt a little dazed. Jia seems to have been admitted to the Jinshi when he was 25 years old, and he has seen many other Jinshi. Zhao Jiaren's kind of jinshi is really unprecedented.

It's not because Zhao Jiaren is shameless, and it's not because Zhao Jiaren is scheming. It's that Zhao Jiaren didn't have a sense of shamelessness in the feeling that Jia Yidao felt. Even if it's about intrigue, even if it's about doing what it likes. However, Zhao Jiaren obviously wants to do something practical. The direction chosen by Zhao Jiaren is the most difficult method.

"Ditch repair...... Hum! Jia Rudao sneered a few times. Today's Zuo Xiang Ding Daquan started his business, relying on him to build Baiheling Road.

Since the establishment of Ningde County, the earliest official road is the "Zhuxi Official Road", that is, the so-called "South Road". It is from the south gate of the county (Yongning Gate) as the starting point, through today's south of the city, Feiluan two towns, leading to Luoyuan, and then through the Lianjiang River to Fuzhou, during which the mountain is high and steep, circling in a roundabout way, it is the famous "dangerous road".

Due to the special geographical situation, the exit roads of Ningde are circuitous and circulating, and it is inconvenient to walk, especially the South Road is the only passage to Fuzhou, the provincial capital, which is extremely inconvenient to use due to the long distance. After Ding Daquan became the chief bookkeeper of Ningde, after on-site investigation, he overcame public opinion, overcame difficulties such as funds, and raised workers to open up the famous "Baiheling Road". The stones are stacked on top of each other, winding up the mountain, 10 kilometers long and one zhang wide. From Luoyuan Dieshi to the head of Ningde, cross Baiheling Road to the county seat. Although this road is "high and dangerous", it greatly shortens the distance to Fuzhou and is convenient for merchants and residents of Ningluo County.

With this great achievement, Ding Daquan became famous. However, because Ding Daquan relied on this to start his business, there were also a lot of people who attacked 'Baiheling Road'. In Jia Rudao's opinion, these attackers have reached the point of madness. All kinds of theories have come out, and even completely ignore Confucius's attitude of 'silent and strange power'.

Ding Da's whole body is left-sided, and the difficulties encountered are extremely great. At this time, if you can really repair the canal, it will immediately become a great achievement that will shake the world. Zhao Jiaren's entry point is too ingenious.

Knowing Zhao Jiaren's father's pedantry, Jia Rudao was very suspicious of who was behind Zhao Jiaren. The one who instructs is a master. Jia seemed to be really unwilling to help Zhao Jiaren, but thinking of the steady and ruthless person behind Zhao Jiaren's guidance, he felt that he couldn't help but intervene. It's not a bad thing to be able to see the big guy behind Zhao Jiaren clearly in operation.

Thinking of this, Jia Rudao went to the study to pick up a pen and write a letter to Ding Daquan. Zhao Jiaren provided ideas, Jia Rudao was also a genuine Jinshi, and it didn't take long to write the letter.

asked the servant to send the letter to Zuo Xiang Ding Daquan, Jia Rudao couldn't help but have a burst of anticipation in his heart. Can this really affect the situation in the DPRK?
