Goodbye You Shixiong, Yang Huairen felt that the old man was much older, and the difference between fighting and working hard and recuperating at home was too great.

In this Song-Xia War, although he didn't have to go into battle to kill the enemy in person as the head of the horse infantry army, Lao You was a more serious person, and the deployment of soldiers and horses, and the logistics preparations were done carefully, so the three or four months of hard work seemed to have taken his life for three or four years.

Other people are always white, little by little, there is always a process of black and white, originally Lao You was like this, but after a war, Lao You's hair is really a hell.

I didn't say that I was worried about working until I turned white overnight, but what does it mean to have gray hair?

You Shixiong saw Yang Huairen staring at his head in a daze, and a mouthful of wine mist sprayed over, "Boy, what are you looking at?" Count the old man's hair? You can't count them, haha. ”

Yang Huairen and You Shixiong are very close, they are old friends, Yang Huairen naturally respects him when he gets along, but every time he is destroyed by Lao You in a way like an old naughty boy, so he has become neither big nor small.

"Old man! Who counted your hair, I think your old man's hair is very strange, you are either white or black, you gray and not a few pieces, what's the matter? ”

You Shixiong laughed, "Want to know?" Haha, originally, the old man's hair was almost all white, but this time he won the battle, and the old man was happy, so they had to turn black again, but before they had time, they only turned halfway, so they were gray. ”

"Haha", Yang Huairen laughed, "It's because you were promoted that you are so happy, right?" ”

"Nonsense!"

You Shixiong said, "The old man is almost sixty years old before he mixed up with the Zhilong Pavilion and led Qinzhou, your kid is older than the old man at a young age, and you still have the heart to entertain the old man?" ”

"You pull it down, my official will listen to the big, in fact, Mao's actual power is not there, how can it be compared? By the way, this time, the official family gave you the title of Tao County Gong, and divided a lot of land, right? ”

You Shixiong made a tiger face, "You know better than me where in Taozhou, that place is more remote than Huanzhou, how many food can you have?" It's amazing that you've been crowned the king of the north, aren't you, Lord Yang? ”

Yang Huairen also pretended to make a straight face, "I always hear that you old man is scolding me." You know what I'm going to do when I want it, and I'll have to rely on you to take care of it in the future. ”

You Shixiong laughed, "You donated money to build a private school in Qinzhou, and the things that the old man promised you will naturally not be counted, not to mention that the holy decree has been issued, do I dare not cooperate?" ”

"All the decrees have been issued? I really don't know. ”

"The old man can also see it, you don't have to worry about anything now, and you can rest assured that you will be the king of leisure. You're living comfortably, but you're tired of a few ladies in your family, and they're all doing it.

Although the holy decree has only come down, they have done a lot of preparatory work before, and your family has a well-known human, material and financial resources, not to mention building a town for foreign trade business, even if it is to build a city, it is a matter of a year. ”

"Alas......"

Yang Huairen sighed, "I don't count what I said, a few ladies can do it, what do you say?" ”

"It's you, right?" You Shixiong glared at Yang Huairen with contempt, and then shook his head helplessly, "Forget it, you kid is a blessed person, even the Khitan princess you can deceive, the Khitan emperor can't catch you, do you say that there is still someone in this world who can cure you?" ”

Yang Huairen said in his heart, where is this? Saying that I deceived the Khitan princess is really ridiculous, obviously the Khitan princess deceived me, okay?

But this kind of thing, you can't tell an old man, and saying it can only make people look down on you more, so Yang Huairen simply acquiesced.

It's just that he suddenly remembered that the old man You Shixiong happened to live to be sixty years old, and thinking that there were only two or three years left until now, Yang Huairen looked at You Shixiong's happy appearance, and he was regretful and worried.

You Shixiong saw Yang Huairen in a daze, and came over with two bowls of wine, "What do you want?" Drink bars! ”

Yang Huairen took it and drank it all, and the old and the young turned over the bowl at the same time to show each other.

"Rejoice! Ahem......"

You Shixiong covered his chest, pulled Yang Huairen under his seat, and went to grab the wine jar to pour the wine.

Yang Huairen blocked the wine bowl, "Lao You, I didn't say you, you are not young, you don't have enough wine when you see it, this is not good, it is still important to be physical." ”

You Shixiong seemed to have known it for a long time, nodded and put down the wine jar, "Do you think I didn't count it in my own heart?" Life must be happy, not to mention such a happy thing, I, an old man, may have experienced such a thing once in my life. ”

"What's this?" Yang Huairen bragged, "Destroy Western Xia this year, and drive the Khitans to Saibei next year!" ”

"Yes, you!"

You Shixiong said this, but his heart was happy, although he knew that Western Xia and Liao were not the same thing, Western Xia was usually a little sideways, but in terms of national strength, it really couldn't be compared with the Great Song Dynasty, if it wasn't for the Khitan people to make a balance, the Great Song Dynasty was not afraid of Western Xia at all.

But the Liao State is different, on the whole, the Song and Liao are both big countries, but when it comes to fighting, the Song Dynasty is obviously not the opponent of the Liao State now.

"You just married the Khitan princess this year, and next year you plan to go to the table of your father-in-law's house?"

Yang Huairen disagreed, "Maybe next year is unlikely, but ten years later, Lao Tzu said that it will be lifted, what can he do with Lao Tzu?!" ”

You Shixiong slapped Yang Huairen's head, "Bragging is guilty, you kid can die 800 times a day." Who are you good at fighting?

Let me tell you, even if your foreign trade base is successfully operating, and you make ten years of money, it is not enough to fight a month's war, you are so smart, you should understand when I mention it. ”

Yang Huairen naturally understood, and said that this Song-Xia War used a lot of manpower, material and financial resources, and it can almost be said that it took the power of the whole Song Dynasty to destroy a Western Xia, and almost a year's tax revenue of the imperial court was smashed in it.

Although Yang Huairen is rich, compared with the annual income of the imperial court, it is nothing but a small matter, and the individual and the country are not of the same magnitude after all.

Winning now is worth it, and if you lose, the results will be catastrophic. So no matter which dynasty or generation, foreign wars are a double-edged sword, everyone is happy when they win, and they dig their own graves when they lose, how many dynasties have fallen and died that didn't start with economic collapse?

Whether it is natural disasters or wars, or corrupt officials and corrupt officials who run rampant to make a name for themselves, it is all after a country's economy cannot support the needs of a huge population, which leads to the collapse of the entire national edifice.

However, Yang Huairen felt that You Shixiong still underestimated the money he could make in foreign trade trading, of course, it was also Yang Huairen's drinking words to use war to confront the Liao State, and he had a better way not to use troops in his heart.
