Compete for the Song Dynasty

Wang Pang talked about the Baiyang wine vividly, and it could be seen that the drunken man was already salivating, and he had a good time talking about the good wine and food. Wang Pang, Cai Xiang and Ouyang Xiu drank heartily this day.

On the way back to the mansion, Cai Jing asked puzzledly: "Young master, you are really amazing! Speaking of Shi Shishi's inscription, he actually led An Guogong to talk about Qin Shilang giving incense cakes. How do you know that Qin Shilang gave An Guogong a gift? "

"Didn't you tell me?" Wang Pang pretended to be stupid.

"Me? When did I tell you?" Cai Jing was baffled by Wang Pang's words.

"The other day we went to the coal yard in Shuimen in the northwest. You went to inquire and came back and told me to give gifts this year, not jewelry and emeralds, but incense cakes." [

Cai Jing thought for a while, and there seemed to be such a thing: "But I didn't say who gave Anguo Gong away?"

Wang Pang laughed secretly, this kid is sometimes smart and sometimes confused, but it is normal for him not to know, An Guogong must have accepted the incense cake, but it was not from Qin Minzhi, but someone gave it to An Guogong in the name of Qin Minzhi house.At such a sensitive time, for such a commodity in short supply, the year-end assessment is approaching. An Guogong is also the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and he is in charge of the official assessment.But now in Bianjing city, who else can send hundreds of catties of coal to An Guogong's mansion, except Qin Minzhi?No matter how stupid An Guogong is, he can still think of Qin Minzhi first.

When the two returned to the mansion, the lights in the hall were still on, and everyone was waiting for Wang Pang to come back to discuss matters.When Lu Shenyan saw Wang Pang, he pulled Wang Pang aside and asked in a low voice, "Master? Yu Danian quietly sent you two carts of coal. You sold one cart to Ruan Xing. Where did you get the other cart?" I've gone, I haven't been here for two or three days, what are you fussing about?!"

"A gift!"

Lu Shenyan almost jumped up when he heard it, "Gifts? Sending them by car?"

"Hush" Wang Pang made a booing gesture to Lu Shenyan: "Boss Lu, what's wrong?"

Lu Shanyan frowned and said in a low voice: "My lord, our family is different now. If you resign and you don't even have a salary, and you close the tea shop, you can't support this big family by pointing out that the Jinxiu Building can't support you. You can't be like before. It’s so extravagant. I’ve calculated, like our current expenses, you can spend three to five years tighter, if you spend extravagantly again, this person will be fed by horses, and my housekeeper will be too good for me.”

Seeing Lu Shenyan's nervous look, Wang Pang laughed and said, "I'm not extravagant, so you are a clever woman who can cook for me?"

"Huh?" Lu Shenyan let out a beep, as if he was caught by Wang Pang's question.

"My lord, what are you mumbling about?" Jiao Deyou asked loudly when he saw Lu Shenyan holding Wang Pang muttering.

"Brother Jiao, if there's nothing else to do, let's all rest. Let's talk about it tomorrow morning!" Wang Pang said to Jiao Deyou.

Everyone greeted each other and dispersed, Tong Xiao pulled Wang Pang: "Daddy, Guan'er has been waiting for you all night, Daddy should tell Guan'er a story!"

"Tong Guan!" Seeing Tong Xiao calling herself Guan'er, Wang Pang shouted unconsciously. "Guan'er is here!" The child agreed quite smoothly.

Wang Pang was both angry and funny: "What's wrong with calling it, it must be called Tong Guan. If you become a high-ranking official in the future, don't call me your godfather!" Wang Pang said angrily.

"Okay! Guan'er just say that you are my own father!" Tong Guan didn't understand what Wang Pang meant by saying this, so he readily agreed.

Wang Pang took Tong Guan back to the bedroom, thinking all the way, this is his own life, but right now this is a ten-year-old child, the name must have been decided by the Queen Mother, it is not so easy to change, but it is not seen. There was nothing to do, and he went back to the bedroom and said to the king: "Your name is Tong Guan, that's fine too. Did the Empress Dowager say that you will decide whether to enter the palace after you become an adult?"

"Yeah, Daddy, I don't know when Guan'er will have to wait?!" Tong Guan suddenly closed his eyes, as if he was still a little bit regretful.

Wang Pang thought for a while and asked: "What's so good about entering the palace, but you can't marry a wife if you enter the palace?!"

"Dad, don't you know that you can marry a daughter-in-law when you enter the palace. I knew that Yang Jian had a teacher?!" Tong Guan said unconvinced. [

"Hey, that's a decoration! It's useless!" As soon as Wang Pang finished speaking, Rou'er walked into the room with warm water for washing.

Seeing Rou'er come in, Tong Guan said, "Daddy, can you arrange someone who can serve you?"

I can't explain it clearly, and I can't explain it any further. I can't talk about physical hygiene with Tong Guan. If you say that the ancients got married early, they were not as precocious as modern children, not to mention that Rou'er was inexplicably Looking at myself, I seem to be asking: What decoration?

"Okay, stop talking nonsense! Go to bed early!" Wang Bang ordered.

Tong Guan pursed his lips and said unhappily: "I have heard of Feili and Woxin, but I have never heard of Feihua. Guan'er didn't say much."

It was troublesome to communicate with the ancients, and it was even more troublesome to communicate with the ancients who were still children, which made Wang Bang even more frustrated.

Wang Pang's kindness has only just appeared. If he is still as cautious as he was when he just traveled, he will naturally not encounter this problem. Although he has shown wisdom that is too ordinary, he is mostly cautious in his words and deeds, not to mention costume dramas and dramas. I have read too many books, and I know a little about ancient things, but if I completely let go, no one will be able to keep up with Wang Pang's thinking.

Wang Pang comforted Tong Guan to go to bed earlier, but he couldn't fall asleep. He thought about what Lu Shenyan said. It was not without economic crisis in the past, but this time it was absolutely true.Firstly, there is no royal reward, secondly, there is no sponsorship from the adoptive father, and thirdly, he himself has no salary, plus the closure of the business and the confiscation of the public.Even if Jinxiulou can be brought back to life, it is not enough to maintain this big family.

Wang Pang's mission to Koryo, Liao Kingdom this time, in his hands were Koryo food coupons worth several million taels, and the debts of Japanese slaves, which seemed to be a lot of taels of silver.Although it is possible to hijack Korea's economy, currency circulation and exchange are not linked at the moment. These are far from being able to quench the thirst of the near, and far from being able to be discounted.

Now it is different from the past, it will take three or four years until Zhao Zhongzhen ascends the throne, and he must not die before dawn.Wang Pang was thinking about what to do next.

That night, Wang Pang was in a daze. He slept until the middle of the night and dreamed of the moonlight.Yuexia held the Yuejin stone, smiled to herself and said, "Husband, now that I have this stone, maybe we will meet someday."

Wang Pang woke up from the dream all of a sudden, he sat up, thinking about his dream, it was not unreasonable.If there is such a stone under the moon, even if it is more than today, it is still a time travel. Maybe the moon has traveled through several dynasties, but it may only be a day or two, or three or five years, it is not certain.

Thinking of this, Wang Pang smiled helplessly, and went back to thinking about something.Looking at the other bed in the room, Tong Guan was sleeping soundly.I must have drunk a lot of wine yesterday, although I clearly remember drinking and talking with Cai Xiang and Ouyang Xiu, and I also remember returning to the house intermittently, but I don't remember when there was an extra bed in the room.I must have forgotten to ask yesterday, maybe this child is too willing to get along with me, so it is possible to add an extra bed to Rou'er, not to mention that the child is over ten years old, and he can't sleep with him.

Wang Pang lay down again, he was in a daze and didn't sleep much, he was woken up by Tong Guan, and seeing the light of the sky, he didn't know that he was sleeping so deeply. have no idea.

The father and son practiced in the courtyard as usual. According to the time, it was six or seven o'clock in the morning. The servants and maids of the mansion woke up one after another, going in and out to clean the courtyard or prepare breakfast.Suddenly saw Lu Shanyan coming to the garden, followed by a young master and a follower.

"My lord, how about you practice? I'll take this lord to see him." Lu Shenyan greeted Wang Pang.

Wang Pang felt a little strange, but since he didn't come looking for him, maybe it was Lu Shenyan's relative, Wang Pang ignored it.After a while, Lu Shenyan sent the two of them out again.Then Lu Shenyan went back to the garden and stood there watching the king practice his sword.

Wang walked around Xingyi Swordsmanship, and then stopped and looked at Lu Shenyan who was freezing and stomping his feet in small steps: "Steward Lu, what do you want me to do?"

"That's right, young master, the one who came here just now was looking at the house. He said that your house costs 500 taels of gold, which is too expensive. Let me discuss it with you. I won't wait for your reply." Lu Shenyan didn't stop walking.

"Huo, looking at the house so early? Sincere enough, where is he now?" Wang Bang laughed.

"Waiting in the hall, do you want to go over and have a look?"

"Let's go, let's have a look!" After Wang Pang finished talking to Lu Shenyan, he turned around to see that Tong Guan was practicing vigorously, and thought to himself that this kid is so brave in the future, and looking at it now, he is indeed a good material for martial arts.It's a pity that I'm afraid I can't teach him this skill. [

Wang Pang thought to himself, but he didn't stop, and he and Lu Shenyan came to the hall of the front yard one after the other.A table has been set up in the hall, with several bowls on it, and the cook is putting a large bowl of porridge on the table.This is the breakfast for Wang Pang and the others. Besides porridge, there are pancakes, scrambled eggs and some pickled vegetables.

Originally, the family did not expect that there were guests in the hall, and the breakfast was ready and served on the table, but today's breakfast was unusual.Although the Song Dynasty did not have tofu and deep-fried dough sticks, people in the Song Dynasty also ate some water rice and snacks for breakfast.When Wang Pang returned to the mansion, he naturally invited the chef to cook what he wanted.

This big bowl of porridge is not ordinary water rice, it is preserved egg and lean meat porridge specially taught by Wang Pang to cook.The hot and fragrant porridge was placed on the table, and the son who came to see the mansion stared at the big plate.It is estimated that the two of them visited the house so early, they must have had no breakfast.

Lu Shenyan stepped forward and said, "Mr. Su, this is my Mr. Wang."

The young master surnamed Su hurriedly regained his senses, cupped his hands and said to the king: "My lord is polite, my surname is Su. Yesterday I saw a notice for the sale of the mansion posted outside your mansion, so I came to bother you today. I don't know if the price you quoted is still good." Is there room for negotiation?"

Wang Pang looked at this Mr. Su and his eyes lit up. If this is a man, he is really young and handsome. Wang Pang secretly smiled in his heart. A little girl came to make trouble early in the morning, but there is no need to expose it. Why not tease him, so he asked with a smile : "There is no rush to discuss, Mr. Su, have you had breakfast? Didn't you eat a piece?!"
