Chapter 331: Father and Son
Fan Zhongyan didn't say anything in the end, and sent Fan Ning out, got into the carriage and gradually walked away, Fan Ning was still feeling in his heart, he knew that his cousin's non-statement was actually a statement, just now his cousin said that if he was not satisfied, he would not come in the future, but when he went out, he also said that he would go to see him before leaving, indicating that he was still very satisfied with his special 'debriefing' today.
However, Fan Ning also knows that this does not mean that his cousin has changed his political philosophy from now on, in terms of political philosophy, the two are still different, Fan Zhongyan and Wang Anshi belong to the staunch reformers, and he belongs to the reformists.
Grandfather only praised himself for doing a good job in Kunzhou, but neither Liuqiu nor Tanzhou made any improvement, and it was still a bottomless pit supported by supplies.
Fan Ning can't take care of so much now, if he wants to realize his political ideas, he must come up with real money, run overseas well, let the overseas feed back to the Great Song Dynasty, create more wealth, and make the people at the bottom also benefit, this is what he has to do next.
Just thinking about it, his stomach suddenly screamed, and he suddenly realized that he hadn't eaten lunch yet, and it was already afternoon, and it was tea time.
However, drinking tea can also fill the stomach, the Song Dynasty drinking is not just drinking tea, all kinds of snacks are readily available, just eating refreshments can fill people's stomachs half-full.
Fan Ning looked outside, the carriage had just entered the old Song Gate, and he immediately ordered the coachman, "Second Uncle Wang, stop the car!" β
The carriage slowly stopped, and Fanning jumped out of the car and said to the coachman: "You go back to Zhufu first!" I'll go back by myself later. β
The coachman's surname is Wang, he has followed Zhu Yuanfeng for more than 20 years, and he is very kind, he said slowly: "Although the little official goes to do things, I will wait for you here." β
"No, I want to have a cup of tea, and then I will walk around, and I don't want to come back later, you can go back first! I rode back in an ox cart by myself. β
"Alright! Petty officials beware of themselves. β
Wang Erlang drove the carriage to turn around slowly and drove in the direction of Zhufu to the north, the carriage left, and Fan Ning walked towards the Qingfeng Teahouse diagonally opposite the street in a hurry.
Qingfeng Teahouse is one of the top ten teahouses in Beijing, but it is not as lonely as Alum Tower, Shi Lou, Pan Lou, and Zhu Skull Teahouse, and there is only one shop in the capital, which makes money at a high price.
Qingfeng Tea House is more popular, open shops everywhere, there are more than a dozen branches in the capital alone, the price is relatively close to the people, rely on the amount to make money, the same is true for the brother Qingfeng Restaurant, you can see it everywhere in the capital, another Zhu Lou is also the same as Qingfeng Tea Restaurant, take the popular road, and the commercial atmosphere is relatively strong.
Fan Ning walked into the teahouse, and the guys inside hurriedly greeted him, "Official, I haven't seen you for a long time, let's get rich!" β
This is a smooth word for the guys, just like a kiss in a certain treasure, don't think he really knows you.
Fanning also knew this, he smiled and raised a finger, "Alone! β
Of course, a person will not go to sit in the private room, and the guy immediately laughed and said: "The official is willing to sit on the first floor or the second floor, the first floor is more lively, you can hear a lot of anecdotes from all over the world, the second floor is a little deserted, if you like to be quiet, it is not bad." β
"Then the second floor! And your refreshments, give me one for each. β
The guy was stunned, and said cautiously: "There are more than forty kinds of refreshments in the shop, and the officials want to pack them and take them away?" β
Fan Ning reacted at this time, this is not a Kunzhou teahouse, there are only five or six refreshments, he quickly changed his words, "Bring me six famous ones, you can watch them yourself!" β
"I see, official, please upstairs."
He handed Fanning a sign, and Fanning took the sign and went straight upstairs.
There were really not many people on the second floor, there were more than 20 tables, only less than half of them were seated, Fanning looked at the window, he wanted to find a seat by the window, but the seats by the window were basically full.
Fan Ning unexpectedly found an acquaintance, Feng Jing, the champion of the same department as himself.
I haven't seen him for five years, Feng Jing's appearance has basically not changed, but he has matured a lot between his eyebrows and eyes.
At this time, Feng Jing also happened to see Fan Ning standing at the top of the stairs, he was stunned at first, then looked at it, and finally recognized Fan Ning, he immediately stood up in surprise and beckoned to Fan Ning, "Brother Fan Xian, come here!" β
Fanning stepped forward and smiled: "It's a coincidence, I actually met my brother." β
Feng Jing stepped forward and patted Fan Ning's arm affectionately, "What a coincidence, we haven't seen each other for five years!" β
"Yes! As soon as the imperial examination was parted, my brother went to Jingnan, and I never saw him again, and my brother was transferred back to the capital? β
"I was transferred back last year, and I was repaired by Ren Jiyingdian, which is very light, where it looks like a virtuous brother, it is already known to the world."
"My brother is laughing at me! I'm going out to do drudgery, and I'm not a clever article, and I'm famous all over the world. β
Feng Jing is actually very good, he is Sanyuan and the first, and he is the son-in-law of Fubi, the Son of Heaven Zhao Zhen admires him very much, and now he has been promoted to the sixth rank of the court, only half a level behind Fan Ning, but the sixth grade and the fifth grade are like the difference between an associate professor and a professor, the sixth grade is still a middle and low-level official, and the fifth grade belongs to a senior cadre.
If it is not a Jinshi background, the general six grades will come to an end, only if the education is enough, the qualifications are enough, and the ability is enough, in order to cross the step of the six grades to the five grades, of course, the military attache is not counted, the military attache is three grades and four grades, and the civil official's hard work qualifications are not the same thing at all, which is also an important reason why the civilian official looks down on the military attachΓ©.
Feng Jing enthusiastically introduced Fan Ning to the three scribes who were drinking tea together, and Fan Ning noticed that these three scribes, they were all dressed in ordinary scholars' clothes, not like officials, one was in his forties, and the other two were in their twenties.
"Let me introduce, these three are famous people from Bashu, father and son, Meishan people, surnamed Su, this is ....."
Without waiting for Feng Jing to finish his introduction, Fan Ning blurted out, "But Su Shi's father and son? β
These three people are Su Xun, Su Shi and Su Zhe father and son, they traveled all over the world in Sichuan, preparing to participate in next year's imperial examination, Su Xun took the two brothers to the capital to visit a friend, and then prepared to travel to the south of the Yangtze River.
The father and son glanced at each other, they were all a little surprised, they had just come out of Sichuan, how could the other party know him, could it be that he also passed Bashu?
The eldest son, Su Shi, bowed down and said: "In Xia Su Shi, on both sides are my father and brother, I don't know if this brother has a high surname, where have I heard of the younger brother?" β
Feng Jing was also a little strange, he knew the Su family's father and son when he went to Bashu on business the year before last, how did Fan Ning know them? You must know that the Su father and son have only been in the capital for a few days.
However, Feng Jing continued to introduce Fan Ning, "This Fan Xian brother is my fellow Jinshi, the first place in the children's department, Fan Ning, you should have heard of it!" β
The young Su Zhe next to him was surprised: "Could it be Fan Zhizhou from Kunzhou?" β
Even the Su father and son, who were far away in Bashu, had heard of him, and it seemed that he was really famous all over the world, Fan Ning smiled slightly: "It turns out that everyone in the world knows Kunzhou, and Fanning of Kunzhou is below!" β
The way to be famous in the Great Song Dynasty is nothing more than academic fame, the head of the imperial examination, and doing a lot of great things, Fan Ning belongs to the last type, and so is Di Qing, a military general, this kind of famous feature has a good effect, like a pile of hay, it catches fire at a point, but the shelf life is also short, and after a few years, everyone gradually fades away, and celebrities are forgotten.
The same goes for the leader of the imperial examination, don't look at Feng Jing's top prize in the examination, he was popular for a while, but now not many people remember him, Fan Ning was also the first place in the children's examination at the beginning, and he was also famous in the capital, but now when he mentions this stubble, few people are interested.
Only a famous artist like Su Shi can truly have a lasting reputation and last a long time.
Su Shi's father and son heard that the young man in front of them was Fan Ning, who opened up territory for the Great Song Dynasty, and they couldn't help but be in awe, every man has the ambition to do something big in his heart, but he may not have the opportunity and courage, so although the Su family father and son did not have that opportunity, they still admired Fan Ning for a person who had done a lot of things.
Especially Su Shi, he saw that Fan Ning was about the same age as himself, but he was successful and famous, and he was still a high-ranking official from the fifth grade, but he hadn't even taken the imperial examination yet!
Thinking of this, Su Shi felt a little gloomy in his heart.
Feng Jing hurriedly persuaded: "Everyone sit down, if you go down politely like this, the tea will be cold." β
Just as the guy brought refreshments to Fan Ning, and hurriedly dragged a chair over, Fan Ning sat down and looked at the famous literary master opposite, Su Shi is a typical Bashu person, with very white skin, delicate eyebrows, medium to upper figure, and looks not much different from ordinary literati, if you have to find something different, that is, his eyes are extremely clear, just like the stream in Kunzhou, extremely pure.
"This is my eldest son Su Shi, Zizhan."
After all, his father Su Xun has a little experience, he knows that the young man opposite is Fan Zhongyan's grandson, maybe he can get to know Fan Zhongyan through him, and if he wants to make achievements in the Song Dynasty, knowledge and connections are indispensable, so he took the initiative to introduce his son to Fan Ning.
Su Shi also hugged his fists and smiled: "Please take care of Brother Fan!" β
Fan Ning waved his hand and smiled: "Brother Zizhan should be twenty years old this year!" You're still a year older than me, just call me a good brother. β
Fan Ning also wanted to take the initiative to make friends with this bull stock with endless potential, and Su Zhe next to him was surprised: "How do you know that my brother is twenty years old?" β
Fan Ning's heart froze, he suddenly realized that he had made several mistakes in a row, the Su family's father and son were far from being famous now, and he shouldn't know them, Fan Ning immediately secretly warned himself that he couldn't make any more surprising words.
However, Su Zhe stared at himself with wide eyes on the side, and he had to clear his doubts first.
"Erlang, don't be rude to Fan Guanren!" Su Xun reprimanded his son on the side.
Fan Ning smiled slightly: "Uncle Su, don't blame him, I was abrupt just now, I live by the sea in Kunzhou, the sea breeze blows all day long, the skin is dark and thin, and I naturally look old, in fact, I am only nineteen years old, Brother Zizhan called me Brother Fan, I know he must have misunderstood, so I asked him if he is already twenty years old?" If so, it's a year older than me, just call me Brother Xian. β
It's a pity that there is no tape recorder in this era, so he can't record what Fan Ning said just now, and now he changed his words and said that he was just a question, Su Zhe was also a little confused, could it be that he heard it wrong just now?
Su Shi didn't pay attention to such a small thing as age, he smiled and said: "It's true that I've just passed the weak crown in Xia, and I'm one year older than Fan Xiandi, so I'll take care of it and call you a virtuous brother." β
"Brother Su doesn't have to be polite!"
Fan Ning glanced at Su Zhe again, and saw that he was still pouting a little unconvinced, Fan Ning couldn't help but laugh in his heart, this Xiangguo who will be the Great Song Dynasty in the future! How can you still be like a child.
Fanning smiled at him, "I guess you're a year younger than me, right?" β
Su Zhe was suddenly relieved in his heart, people guessed, although they guessed, it didn't mean that they had the ability to predict the future.
He was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly picked up the tea and said: "Replace wine with tea, and make amends to Brother Fan!" β
A small age turmoil has warmed up the relationship between everyone.
