A great man of the Northern Song Dynasty

The most popular restaurants next to the pier are wine shops. Once the passenger ships dock, dozens or hundreds of people are doing business, making a lot of money!

Shen An and Zhao Zhongzhen were sitting in the wine shop. They ordered tea soup and some dry dishes.

"Why don't you just find something for his father to do?"

Zhao Zhongzhen said confidently: "It's so hard to work as a coolie, his father will definitely agree."

Shen An said noncommittally, "You can try it."

The cargo on the ship had been almost unloaded, and Zhao Zhongzhen stood up and walked over with strong steps.

As soon as he stepped forward, two men who were drinking at the table next to him looked over. One of them was Zhang Ba8en.

Zhang Baibian came over and sat where Zhao Zhongzhen had just been, with a ghostly fire in his eyes, and asked: "I thought you would give him advice."

Shen An picked up the tea cup and took a sip, frowning slightly and said: "This is an opportunity for him to see the market. Why should I interfere with him?"

"experience?"

Zhang Baibian reached out and picked up a piece of dried fish, his lips moved slightly, "People in the world forget about kindness when they see benefits, and when they see the benefits, will Su Yi not take it?"

"He certainly won't take it."

Shen An's words made Zhang Baibian smile, a very charming smile.

"What if he takes it?"

Shen An took a sip of tea, and then regretted it, "I really don't like drinking tea paste!"

He put down the tea cup and said, "If you take it, I will donate five thousand guan to Futian Yuan."

"good!"

Zhang Baba said coldly: "If you don't take it, I owe you a favor."

"Your love... is nothing, but it's still worth five thousand guan."

Shen An wanted to say it wasn't worth it, but in the end she gave him some face.

The favor of the Imperial City Secretary is not small, and it can save lives at critical moments.

…

After finishing the work, my whole body was sore. Now I was sitting on the ground, with a bucket of cold water next to me, and everyone started drinking.

Su Yan drank a bowl of water, ate two cakes with his father, and then took out a book to read.

Only when he found that there was someone else around him did he remember his agreement with Zhao Zhongzhen.

"sorry……"

"fine."

Zhao Zhongzhen sat next to him, smiled at Su Yi next to him, and said, "Father and son have to work hard here. If there is an easier job..."

Su Yan was still a little confused, but Su Yi smiled and said: "Thank you..."

This is about agreeing to it.

Zhao Zhongzhen felt that this was an easy job, so he smiled slightly.

"It's just that little people are used to it."

Su Yi's words made Zhao Zhongzhen's smile gradually stiffen. He felt a little incredible, and even thought it was embarrassing, so he said: "It's just a small matter. As long as you agree, you can go tomorrow and the money will not be small."

Su Yi glanced at his son and said, "Thank you very much. Although it's a bit hard here, it's peaceful."

He tried to persuade him several times, but Su Yi just shook his head and declined.

What does it mean?

Is it playing hard to get?

Zhao Zhongzhen went back with a confused look on his face.

"Brother An Bei, why didn't he agree? The benefits of sending it to your door...and after a certain person told him his identity in private, Su Yi refused even more firmly."

Zhao Zhongzhen was a little annoyed and shouted: "Bring me some wine."

"Take a shit!"

Shen An stopped the waiter and cursed: "Something makes you want to drink away your sorrow? What a waste!"

This was probably the first errand that Zhao Zhen gave to Zhao Zhongzhen, but he failed.

That sense of failure makes people depressed, and they want to get drunk to relieve their worries.

"If you want to figure this out, you have to figure out people's hearts first. Get out of here."

Shen An drove him away, and Zhang Baibian sat over again.

"Just now, a certain person asked someone to...seduce Su Yan with money, but the young man turned a blind eye...really treats money like dirt. No wonder the officials value him."

Zhang’s eight years of analysis resulted in laughter.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Shen An laughed so hard that he finally hit the table and burst into tears.

Fortunately, there were no customers at the moment, so the shopkeeper didn't interfere. However, the waiter came over to check the table as usual. If it was damaged, he would definitely claim compensation.

Zhang Baibian's face was ashen, the will-o'-the-wisp in his eyes turned into wildfire, and the anger was gradually building up.

"What are you laughing at? Is it funny?"

Shen An gasped: "It's ridiculous... I thought you at least had some understanding of human nature, but I didn't expect you didn't know anything about it..."

Zhang Baba said coldly: "You know that human nature is cowardly. In front of someone, a seemingly strong person will only cry and beg for a quick death. As for the human heart... the human heart is as vicious as an animal."

Shen An looked at him and said regretfully: "You are black from the inside out. If a certain teacher saw you, he would definitely say that something bad happened to you when you were a teenager, so you have an extreme personality..."

"Go out and talk!"

The two of them left the wine shop and walked side by side.

"Your teacher...could someone like this fall into his eyes?"

Even the most ruthless people have their own aspirations and weaknesses.

Shen An didn't know what Zhang Baibian's weakness was, but it was obvious that he also admired capable people.

"I'm afraid it will be difficult."

He said casually: "The teacher never cares about ability, he cares about means. He often says that people who can use the simplest means to solve problems are geniuses, and those who use very gorgeous means to solve problems are admirable. People are fools...For example, if someone is a person, the teacher will say that someone is a fool."

He looked at Zhang Baba and said: "You don't understand the thoughts of the people at the bottom, so you use what you think are gorgeous methods to seduce Su Yan. If he agrees, you will feel proud and despise him at the same time. But he didn't He agreed, but you were at a loss and speculated on your own that his thoughts were probably malicious..."

If your good intentions are not accepted, you will naturally get angry, and then you will speculate: There is something wrong with this person's brain!

Zhang Baibian looked at him and said coldly: "What you like most is to figure out people's hearts, so you are close to Bao Zheng and Ouyang Xiu. You would rather get close to the Zhe family than to get close to Sima Guang... Back then you You could have gotten close to Sima Guang, but you refused. Did you feel bad after trying to figure them out? So you alienated them."

Shen An smiled dryly and said, "Nothing."

He didn't like Sima Guang because he couldn't stand the way this man put on airs, and he couldn't stand the viciousness of his attitude of scrapping all the innovations of Shenzong and Wang Anshi as soon as he came to power...

"The gentleman respects him and is willing to associate with him. But the hypocrite is particularly disgusted."

As Shen An mounted his horse and left, a subordinate said to Zhang Bianba: "Everyone knows that Sima Guang is a famous gentleman..."

Zhang Baibian glanced at Su Yan and his son who were starting to carry out the work again, and said: "A gentleman...yes! They say he is a gentleman."

He returned to the palace all the way, and Zhao Zhen was already waiting for him.

"It didn't work?"

"yes."

"Why?"

Zhao Zhen thought they were not doing their job well, so he was a little annoyed.

Zhang Baba lowered his head and said: "Zhao Zhongzhen said he would find an easy job for Su Yi, but Su Yi refused. I sent someone to seduce Su Yan with money, but he avoided her like a snake...I am guilty."

He knelt on the ground, but Zhao Zhen smiled.

"Why is this? Is it fear?"

He glanced at Zhang Baba and said, "The people you sent are vicious? But Zhao Zhongzhen is not. Why is that?"

Zhang Baibian lowered his head and said, "I don't know. Shen An seems to know, but he refuses to tell."

Zhao Zhen scolded: "Stubborn, call him!"

Then Shen An was called into the palace.

"I want to know the reason."

Are you preparing to cultivate Su Yan?

Before an emperor wants to focus on cultivating a person, he must figure out his character.

Shen An originally thought it was a big deal, so he sighed: "Your Majesty, it's just a few words... Buns will not fall from the sky; you sweat your own food and eat your own food."

Zhao Zhen shook his head and said: "Nonsense!"

He just thought about it and then ordered: "Go away alone. I have to ask Su Yan to have two friends in Taixue. Ask them to ask. If you can't ask questions, don't come back."

The emperor was angry, and Zhang Bian immediately went to arrange the matter.

Shen An wanted to leave, but Zhao Zhen didn't agree.

He was talking nonsense with Chen Zhongheng outside, and felt that Zhao Zhen was just looking for trouble.

Don't you just think that these ministers are not honest? Then you find a simple and honest young man who is good at giving yourself a Taixue steamed bun to eat, so you go online and insist on cultivating that young man.

You can cultivate them as long as you want. The emperor's suspicion still makes you want to find out the character of their father and son. If you are vain and can be easily moved by money, this matter is probably going to go to waste again.

The emperor is insane!

It would have been fine if Su Yi had agreed before, but Zhang Baibian clearly took Zhao Zhen's hint and used money to seduce Su Yan to see if he was firm in his stance.

If you are determined, I will cultivate you. If you are not determined, you will go back and forth.

Emperors rarely value anything because they feel it is not worth it.

But once he values ​​​​him, he is afraid that the other party will betray him.

Driven by this mentality, Zhao Zhen's methods inevitably had some flaws, which were spotted by Shen An.

Zhao Zhongzhen was worried that he had failed in his job, but Zhao Zhen also failed.

Su Yan and his son actually defeated the emperor and the future emperor...

Shen An just wanted to laugh and then get drunk again.

Zhang Baibian came back again. Shen An had already had lunch and was sitting outside taking a nap.

"Your Majesty... those two people are gone. Su Yan said that Shen An taught you that no reward will be given for no merit... Buns will not fall from the sky..."

"Did that kid ruin my business?"

"No, Su Yi said that he works hard to earn money to eat, so that he can feel at ease. Otherwise, he will not be able to sit still, eat well, sleep well..."

"Is it that simple? Well...this is not what Shen An said..."

"Sweat your own sweat, UU read books www.uukanshu.net and eat your own food."

"Yes, how does he know what the people at the bottom think?"

"I guess it's... talent."

"Talent...why are there so many greedy people?"

"Yes, Su Yan is honest, Su Yi is true, but he is rare."

"Yes, if this kind of people are common, why should I value them? Hahahaha!"

Shen An heard these words, and Zhao Zhen called him in later.

"You have to keep an eye on Su Yan's studies. Also, how do you determine that Su Yi and his son are unwilling to agree?"

No matter how benevolent the emperor is, he is also the darling of the suspicious.

Shen An said: "Su Yan has passed the examination, so he is a serious scholar. In ordinary people's homes, most of these people do nothing but study to prepare for the exam. But Su Yi is willing to let him do hard work. It can be seen that He is not a person with a strong sense of vanity... If his vanity is not strong, he will naturally not be willing to receive salary without merit."

"Is it that simple?"

Zhao Zhen was still suspicious.

Shen An smiled bitterly and said: "Officials, please don't underestimate the common people. They also have their own dignity. Under those flattering smiles, they are just compromising on life."

Zhao Zhen fell silent...
