Chapter Seventy-Two: Come Out, Cigarettes
"That's not a good name." Su Shi felt that he couldn't understand it.
"Hey, we don't care about our age, we only look at ability. The old man has always been very respectful of capable people, hahaha. Okay, when a man stands between heaven and earth, he should be open-minded, and what he calls is just a subsection, isn't it Su Xiaoyou, Brother Su. ”
Pang Ji with a smile on his face, this time the folds were all over his face, Su Shi really couldn't resist this enthusiasm, so he had to respond, "In this way, I will call you Brother Huge from now on." ”
"Haha, that's right? Don't worry, you will be my brother in the future, if you have anything difficult, just ask, and the eldest brother will definitely help you. Pang Ji patted his chest and said with a big bag.
Although Pang Ji hung up the official position of Zuo Zhiyi, he was actually an observer envoy in Yanzhou, and this time he was just accompanying the Western Xia delegation to Beijing, and once the task was completed, he still had to go back. He didn't think that he would still be able to stay in Jingshi, so naturally he couldn't talk about helping Su Shi.
Saying these things is just throwing a blank check and appearing to be very righteous.
However, Pang did not know, but Su Shi knew that after he returned to Beijing this time, he would stay here and be promoted to the position of governor and secretary of the Ministry of Labor. is about to become an important member of the court.
And since then, Pang Ji can be said to have risen to the top, promoted all the way up, and finally served as the prime minister.
This is definitely a thigh, and now this leg is actually handed to him on his own initiative, how can he not hold it.
"Okay, if the eldest brother says so, the younger brother will take it seriously." Su Shi said excitedly.
"Of course, the eldest brother doesn't have any other skills, just talking counts, hahaha." Pang Ji just thought that Su Shi had been deceived, so he continued to laugh, and after laughing, his face began to change dramatically, "Oh, Brother Su, the eldest brother doesn't hide it from you, I am poor in Yanzhou, where I have been fighting all the year round, and the only money I have is subsidized to the sergeants below, otherwise, if I recognize a capable person like you as a junior brother, the eldest brother always has to get some decent meeting gifts, but now..."
It is a sigh and a complaint, and its meaning is self-evident.
Su Shi finally figured out the meaning of Pang's origin.
Su Shi just said? Although he has also made some fame recently, he still knows too few people, and Pang Ji is just a foreign official, why do you go on the pole to have a relationship with yourself? The roots of his feelings are here, and he wants to make money.
There is nothing wrong with Pang Ji wanting to make money and live a better life, everyone has the right to pursue a better life. Besides, when people come, they put their posture so low, compared to those hypocrites who are arrogant, but are actually male prostitutes and female thieves in their hearts, and are extremely filthy, Su Shi prefers real villains like Pang Ji.
Don't you just want to make money?
There is no other way here in Su Shi, but there are many strange things, and if you take out the same casually, you can make money, or make a lot of money.
The person who gives such a thing to the one who is full of benevolence and morality, but in fact doesn't know what he thinks in his heart, it is better to cooperate with Pang Ji, at least cooperate with such a person, you don't have to worry that he will deal with you behind your back.
When everyone has a common interest, moving you is equivalent to moving the whole team, and you are naturally much safer to stay in it.
After thinking it through, when Su Shi raised his head and looked at Pang Ji, he replaced it with a smile on his face, "Brother Pang, where are you talking about this, can you think of my brother, this is my honor, how can I continue to let my eldest brother break the bank, come and smoke a cigarette." ”
As he spoke, Su Shi had already taken out a box of cigarettes and handed it to Pang Ji.
"This is..."Pang Ji, who had never seen this thing, was confused, and he didn't understand how to turn around and come to this matter.
"Brother Su, this is a cigarette, it is for smoking. It can relieve boredom, worry, and fatigue. Especially when you're thinking about something important, it's one of the best things to help you with. Of course, after the fact... No! Smoke one after the meal, it will be more pleasant. ”
Su Shi introduced as he took out two cigarettes from the cigarette box. One was put next to his mouth, and the other was handed to Pang Ji. Then the lighter suddenly appeared, and then the fire suddenly appeared like a trick, which lit the cigarette in his mouth.
After taking a sharp breath, Su Shi showed a very comfortable appearance, and then looked at Pang Ji who was still stunned and said, "Come, big brother, little brother will give you something." ”
As he spoke, the flame appeared in front of Pang Ji, which caused him to come back to his senses, and nodded again and again: "Oh, good." ”
As if he was curious, and as if he didn't want to show his timidity, Pang Ji lit a cigarette with the fire in Su Shi's hand, and then took a sharp breath, and then the sound of a huge cough came out.
"Ahem, ahem... Okay, what is this? Obviously, the first time I smoked, I was a little unaccustomed to it, so I wanted to throw the lit cigarette to the ground.
"Big brother, don't. This thing is like this, it is like this for the first bite, but once you get used to it, you will know how wonderful it is. Two more bites? Su Shi said in a demagogic tone.
Cigarettes, in later generations, are basically the standard things on men's bodies. Statistics show that at least two-thirds of the world's men smoke, and about one-seventh of women smoke.
The box is printed with words that are harmful to health, but why are so many people still flocking to it? In the final analysis, it is because it can refresh the mind, and in many cases, it can also quickly bring the relationship between the two people closer.
With such an influence in later generations, Su Shi believes that it will not be too bad today. As for the damage it will cause to the body, to be honest, how many people actually die from smoking? Not to mention, the average life expectancy of the Great Song Dynasty is less than forty years old, at such an age, all aspects of the body's functions are good in the future generations, but they still died, and the more reason is caused by the social environment, because of the underdevelopment of medical technology, such as the harm that can be caused by cigarettes is very limited.
The important thing is that this thing is really profitable, and this thing also has a certain psychological dependence, which plays an extremely important role in enhancing the influence and importance of Sushi. Besides, even if Su Shi doesn't get this thing, it will still be made out by the Spaniards in the future, rather than this, it is better for Su Shi to do it, at least he has the money and can do a lot of beneficial things for the Great Song Dynasty.
In a word, Su Shi decided to get the cigarettes out, and the harm to the body caused by the cigarettes produced by the system has been minimized, but the benefits that can be brought to him are absolute, and I am really sorry for the system if such a good thing is not moved out.
Under Su Shi's persuasion, Pang Ji finally finished a cigarette, although it was far from the level of addiction, but it was not as uncomfortable to smoke as the first puff.
"Brother Su, you said this thing is called a cigarette, why have I never seen it before?" Pang Ji also thinks that he has traveled from south to north and has seen a lot. But why have you never heard of anything like this?
"Hehe, Brother Pang, have you seen Rencha before? Have you ever drunk a burning knife? ”
"None of these are any, but are they all different now? And it's selling very well. ”
"The world is changing, and human beings are the smartest creators, and it is because of our human intelligence that there are more and better things. And if we humans stop moving, I'm afraid we are still eating raw meat. ”
Listening to Su Shi's theory, Pang Ji nodded as if he didn't understand, but one thing he knew was that this cigarette could also be as hot as Rencha and burning knives. "Brother Su, do you mean that this thing can make money?"
"Yes, not only to make money, but also to make a lot of money. Brother Pang, didn't you just say that you refused in your hands and didn't have a greeting gift? Then this is the little brother's gift to the eldest brother, with this thing, the eldest brother will not be short of money after keeping, hahaha. Su Shi laughed very confidently.
This smile infected Pang Ji, he seemed to have seen a lot of silver money in his pocket, and immediately said to Su Shi with an obscene look: "Come, Brother Su, have another one." ”
After a while, Pang Ji swallowed the clouds and spit out three fogs, and when he tried it for the first time, he felt a little nauseous, so he stopped.
"Brother Pang, this thing is not like tea and wine, everyone has been drinking it for many years, and it takes a process of adaptation. In this way, you can take this cigarette back first, smoke it slowly, and when you know how good he is, I will look for it, and then we will discuss how to cooperate. ”
Su Shi knew the truth that if you want to hurry, you can't reach it, so she didn't say it in a hurry.
"It's okay, it's okay, the eldest brother still has government affairs to do, and when the two days are over, I'm coming to see you." Pang Ji knew it was time to leave. Although he doesn't know much about cigarettes now, he just recognized a younger brother, and he got so many benefits, no matter how you look at it, it's worth it.
Su Shi smiled and said, "Brother Pangda is a person who does big things, you go and get busy with you." Take away the cigarettes, and this lighter will be given to you, so it's a welcome gift for the younger brother. "A pure copper fire, delicate and unique, is definitely a precious thing in the world, but in the system, it can be exchanged for only two points, which is really nothing.
"Okay." Unceremoniously stretched out his hand to take over the pure copper firer, Pang Ji's face narrowed into a slit, and at this time he saw Su Shi becoming more and more pleasing to the eye.
The arrival of Pang Ji was a bit sudden for Su Shi, but it was also an unexpected joy.
As far as Su Shi knows, Pang Ji is very good at figuring out the emperor's heart, and what he does and what he says is also very much in line with the appetite of Renzong Zhao Zhen, otherwise, how could he have been promoted to become the prime minister later?
Such a person is a friend with himself, not an enemy, of course, a good thing, and Su Shi can't ask for it.
