Chapter 426: The Old Man Won't Give Money

In the corner of the room were several large bundles of thick arrows, powered by gunpowder. After calculating the length of the lead, it can be used as an earthen missile, and then it can be blown up with a clay pot bomb.

He found a crowbar, pried open a few wooden floors, and removed a large plank underneath, revealing a blackened hole......

This is the tunnel that the villagers dug up for a long time, leading to the courtyard of the house across the street. In order to transport the dirt out without being noticed, the Shen family's cart went back and forth under the pretext of supplying supplies, and it was not until last month that the dirt was transported.

Shen Anpan went out for a long time, but Guoguo was waiting outside.

"What's going on?" Shen An asked with a smile.

Guoguo looked very entangled, lowered her head, raised her head slightly when she heard the sound, and muttered, "Brother...... I was wrong......"

The little girl stood there very weakly, and she looked up from time to time to glance at her, and when she saw that her brother was just smiling, the guilt in her eyes gradually turned into grievances.

"Know it's wrong?"

Shen An walked over, his right hand hung down, and Guoguo also habitually grabbed his brother's sleeve, nodded and said, "Well, brother, I know it's wrong." ”

"If you don't eat vegetables, you'll become a little black girl...... Would you like to? ”

"I don't want to."

"It's not enough to eat all vegetables and vegetables, and it's not enough to eat all meat, so we want half of it......"

"Good!"

……

"I heard that Shen An's heart is still quite broad-minded, and he is extremely patient......"

"Who said that?"

"He treats those people very kindly, it can be seen that this person is a soft and not hard person in his bones, as long as we say some good things, can he still stand up?"

"Yes. How many cities can a young man have? Submit a little softly, and that's it. ”

The magnates are considered to have poured blood mold today, and they have been pumped several times in a row, which is simply painful.

So a few people who were active thought of testing Shen An, so that they could solve their children's attaching qualifications first.

Most of the people in this world are soft and not hard, so they think that this trip will go well.

All the way to the Shen family, after knocking on the door, Zhuang Laoshi raised his head high, his eyes were almost on the top of his head, he looked down on them like this, and said arrogantly: "Wait." ”

"How arrogant is this man?"

"How dare a little butler despise me? Licentious! ”

After Zhuang honestly entered, several powerful people were furious, but they knew the truth of being able to bend and stretch, so they just complained.

As long as this matter is resolved, it will not be a matter of hand-to-hand capture to clean up a housekeeper in the future?

So they complained for a while, and when they saw Zhuang Laoshi coming over again, they all showed a reserved smile.

"My family Langjun doesn't have time to see you."

Zhuang honestly didn't wait for them to get angry, and said, "Close the door!" ”

Boom!

The door closed, and several dignitaries looked at each other, and then anger gradually rose. After leaving Yulin Lane, he scolded all the way and went to the restaurant to drink.

"This is getting carried away!"

"Who said he had a big heart? What else do you say about being soft or hard...... This kid doesn't eat hard or soft! ”

"Damn! This person is ruthless enough, more ruthless than all of us! ”

"I'm afraid it won't be here, huh! Who's that? ”

"Yes...... Zeng Gongliang? ”

"Zeng Gongliang has returned to Beijing, tsk! How long has Shen Andu been here? He just arrived, this is a compliment all the way. ”

“……”

Just when Shen An slapped the magnates into dizziness, Zeng Gongliang returned to Beijing.

Some people say that he praised his achievements all the way and was triumphant, but the moment he saw the city wall of the capital, Zeng Gongliang's face became more cold.

Screaming will only make people lose their alertness, and they will lose the battle.

Han Qi, the old man is here!

He went all the way into the palace and found that the people were all looking at him.

Has the old man become more and more personable again?

He touched his face, but only dust.

In order to deepen the impression of being dusty, he has not washed his face for three days.

When he saw Zhao Zhen, Zeng Gongliang said with emotion: "Your Majesty, you have lost weight." ”

Zhao Zhen touched his face and said happily: "No wonder I feel lighter recently." ”

He rejoiced for a moment, and then sighed: "Zeng Qing is ...... dark."

Chen Zhongheng felt that this way of condolence after returning from a long trip was a little unacceptable and tasted wrong.

The monarchs and ministers disgusted each other for a while, and Zeng Gongliang talked about the battle of this trip as usual, as well as the subsequent disposal.

“…… Those captives were handed over to Guangnan West Road, and Xiao Gu and they wanted to build the road, saying that they wanted to build the road to Bianliang wider and smoother. ”

After Zeng Gongliang returned from this trip, Zhao Zhen found that he was more calm.

Is this a calmness that kills people?

He was still thinking about Zeng Gongliang's murder, but Zeng Gongliang began to praise Shen An.

“…… The official family, this son is talented in the battle array, and he was the first to detect the two turns and was able to deal with them in time, which led to the failure of the ambush of the Jiaozhi people. In the end, he even rushed into battle in person...... Your Majesty, the minister is thinking that in twenty years, there should be one more young and handsome man in the political hall. ”

Shen An is now seventeen years old, and thirty-seven years later will be thirty-seven years old, according to Zaifu's age structure, he can be called a juvenile seal.

When he returns from this trip, his goal is the second phase, so he must have a mind.

Besides, I am sixty years old, and I have to go home if I don't die in twenty years, so I will give Shen An a personal favor at this moment, and I will be able to do some benefits to my descendants in the future.

Zhao Zhen stroked his beard and smiled: "That's right." It was not easy for Zeng Qing to kill the enemy with a sword...... When I heard this, I was worried! ”

What rice?

Zeng Gongliang only felt a buzz in his head, and then forced a smile; "The official family has an overreputation."

Didn't the old man explain to Shen An and ask him not to tell him about it?

It is a heresy for a civilian official to kill the enemy, but the key is that the old man did not kill anyone with a sword, and he was almost killed by someone......

Shame on you!

Zhao Zhen said approvingly: "Zeng Qing is humble, you have made great contributions to this great victory in the southwest, and go home to rest for a few days, and there will naturally be a reward later......"

He nodded meaningfully, Zeng Gongliang was happy in his heart, and he bowed and retired.

After leaving the palace, the entourage asked, "Ah Lang, but do you want to go home?" ”

Zeng Gongliang shook his head: "Go to the Shen family." ”

That kid cheated the old man, and the old man was unhappy if he didn't trouble him.

After arriving at the Shen family, Shen An went to Izumokan.

……

Izumokan is now a steelmaking site, with several 'furnaces' in unison, flames looming, and a pungent smell in the air.

"Brother Dao, please take a look."

She Hui picked up a steel rod and slashed with a heavy long knife.

There are quite a few marks left on the steel rods, but the traces are not deep.

She Hui is getting darker and darker, but she is in good spirits.

Shen An praised: "It seems that there has been a lot of progress!" I'm afraid someone is coming back to the Privy Council. ”

"It's already here."

At the mention of this, Shehui shook her head, not in the mood.

She coughed dryly and said, "Brother Dao, Ouyang Xiu has been here...... After seeing the steel, he gave it to the formula......"

"Given?"

Shen An almost wanted to hit someone.

She Hui said: "Give it, just give it, but the junior brother said that he would wait for the Daoist brother to call the shots, and it was useless for Ouyang Xiu to threaten him......"

He said dissatisfiedly: "Brother Dao invested a lot of money and food, and the Privy Council wanted to take it without giving a penny, but Poor Dao felt that it was inappropriate......

"It's not appropriate."

Shen Anxin was relieved and praised: "That's it, when Ouyang Xiu comes back, let him go to Shen's house." ”

……

Ouyang Xiu's arrival was faster than Shen An had imagined.

Just when Shen An was thinking about whether he would be cleaned up if he violated the lockdown order when he went out, Ouyang Xiu came.

The sun hung brightly in the sky, and everything turned white.

Amid the sound of cicadas, Ouyang Xiu said angrily: "This is for the sake of the Great Song Dynasty, with such good steel to build swords and guns, the Great Song Dynasty will have more chances of winning in the face of foreign enemies." This is a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people, and you have been saying that you are willing to give up everything for the sake of the Great Song Dynasty...... Why is this reluctant? ”

Old Ouyang slapped the table with a crackling sound, and his angry appearance could scare people.

"Ouyang Gong...... What should you give? ”

Shen An said very indifferently: "That Izumo view steelmaking is a certain amount of money and grain, and most of the steel that comes out is given to the third division...... What else is there to give? Formulation? ”

"Yes, Recipe."

Ouyang Xiu was waiting for Shen An to repent, in his opinion, if the Great Song Dynasty needed it, he Ouyang Xiu would be willing to give it to his family, but now it was just a recipe, Shen An was making a mistake.

"Why?"

Shen An asked: "A certain is not bad for that money, and a certain is not a miser, which can be guaranteed by those donations." But if it is given like this, then dare to ask, who will dare to think about these things in the future? ”

"Narrow-minded!"

Ouyang Xiu's vision is definitely not long-term enough, otherwise he would not have been a pig teammate back then, so he was very angry.

"The old man has never seen a young man as smart as you, your future is limitless, but you must first learn to be humble and learn to take the overall situation into account, otherwise the better your talents, the more dangerous your future will be......"

"Isn't virtue worthy?"

Shen An asked.

The so-called virtue is not matched, and history abounds. According to idealism, your virtue is not worthy of your current status, and if you don't repent quickly, something will go wrong sooner or later.

Ouyang Xiu was stunned, then nodded slightly, and then said, "The old man won't give money!" ”

He left angrily, and Zhuang was a little worried.

"Lang Jun, if Ouyang Xiu is angry...... His friends are all over the world! ”

No one wants to offend Ouyang Xiu to death, because they are afraid of his connections.

Old Ouyang has made a lot of good fortunes over the years, and if he really wants to scare people, that person will probably have to be prepared for infamy.

Shen An didn't care about this at all, "What are you afraid of?" I refused to give money at the beginning, and at this time I wanted to pick peaches, how could there be such a good thing. ”

……

Ouyang Xiu went to find Bao Zheng angrily, Lao Bao was naturally a representative figure who helped his relatives and did not help, and the two quarreled.

He went to find Zeng Gongliang, who had just returned to Beijing.

Lao Zeng had just taken a vacation and was holding the corpse at home, and when he heard that he was coming, he came out in his underwear to greet him.

"The ancients greeted each other upside down, and today there are people who have undressed each other to entertain guests, and the old man is honored."

Ouyang Xiu's words made Zeng Gongliang a little embarrassed, and after sitting down, Ouyang Xiu said the process of negotiating with Shen An, "...... The young man got into the eye of the money and disappointed the old man...... Zeng Xiang, you have to come forward...... You have a friendship with him in the Southwest, and you have to go to this matter, otherwise where will the Privy Council find this money? ”

It's not that Old Ouyang refuses to give money, but the current Da Song is a half-crippled man with holes, and some money has been leaked out of these holes, which is not enough.

Zeng Gongliang was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Uncle Yong, you misunderstood this matter. ”

Ouyang Xiu said angrily: "What did the old man misunderstand? The old man said he wouldn't give him money......"

Zeng Gongliang said with black lines on his face: "It is a business for the Privy Council to ask for the formula, and he Shen An is half-private and half-public when he subsidizes Izumo, if he doesn't give money, he will take it...... The old man on this trip to the southwest knows a little about Shen An, if he doesn't give money, he will definitely lose the Izumo Temple, who cares about it. ”

Ouyang Xiu asked, "Why?" ”

He really didn't understand, and he was very dissatisfied.

Co-authored my old Ouyang to save money for the Privy Council?

Zeng Gongliang said in a deep voice: "Rules! ”

"Rules?"

"Yes!"

Zeng Gongliang explained: "Originally, the Privy Council didn't give money, but now he wants to take benefits, according to a certain understanding of Shen An, he will be angry, and if he forcibly takes it, he will not stop it, but after that, Izumo Guan has nothing to do with him." ”
