Chapter 84 A capable person

Businessmen received news very quickly. Three days later, Cheng Wenying looked at the letters from several parties and said with a smile: "No wonder, a capable person has come to Yizhou Prefecture."

Ba Niang was very curious: "Who is it?"

Cheng Wenying brushed his beard and said with a smile: "Zhang Andao, Zhang Fangping."

Su You was very happy. After being beaten by Su Shi for so long, someone who could beat him finally came. He couldn't help but smile and said, "I heard he is a child prodigy."

Shi Dongxiu smiled and said: "It's just a child prodigy. Is Meishan still missing?"

Cheng Wenying waved his hand and said: "Don't say that. This gentleman is really extraordinary. The young man is extremely smart. His family is so poor that he can't afford to buy books, so he borrows them from others. The three histories were returned in only ten days. The master asked

Why, he said he had read them all."

Su Shi was writing next to him and couldn't help but mutter: "How is it possible? It's just echoing..."

Cheng Wenying said with a smile: "Zizhan, don't be dissatisfied. Duke Zhang sent Khitan back and appointed him to make imperial edicts and to act as governor of Kaifeng Mansion. There were many trivial matters in the government, and his predecessor used a writing board to record them all, but he only had to memorize them silently, and he never made any mistakes.

Wrong. His memory is really not that legendary."

After he finished speaking, he sighed again: "This man is a pragmatic man and is very knowledgeable. Xiaoyou, if he sees you, he will definitely be very happy. You are an old man and a young man, and your temperaments are quite similar."

Banniang said: "Master, tell us something."

This is also a traditional project of the Jiangqing family, to comment on the current affairs of the DPRK and China.

When the eldest Su and Xiao Su were young, Su Xun explained to them the situation in the DPRK and the personalities of the characters. Su Dongpo also wrote an article praising Fan Zhongyan. Su Xun liked two of the sentences very much and pointed them out and said: "These two sentences

Keep it for now, don’t give it to Lao Fan, we will use it ourselves later.”

This is one of the reasons why children from aristocratic families become officials and have an advantage over those from poorer families.

Cheng Wenying said: "Before Yuan Hao prepared to rebel, he wrote a letter with arrogant words. He wanted to force the Song Dynasty to break off diplomatic relations with him, so as to take the opportunity to provoke the party members to support him."

"Zhang Gong's suggestion is to be patient for the time being so that Yuan Hao has no reason to openly rebel. Then he will seize a year to select soldiers, build horses and troops, build cities, and form an invincible trend."

"His reason is that if a small country uses troops, as long as there is no victory or defeat for three years, the country will be self-defeating. At that time, the Song Dynasty will take the opportunity to attack again, which is a sure way to win."

"It's a pity that the imperial court was in its prime at that time, and even I thought that Zhang Gong's suggestion was too weak, and that it tolerated traitors. What everyone thought in their minds was that those who openly offend a strong man will be punished no matter how far away they are; but they forgot to rely on their own invincibility.

But the basic principle of waiting for the enemy to win is to underestimate the enemy..."

"After that, the government recruited archers from various places and selected their strongest and bravest ones to form the Xuanyi and Baojie armies. Zhang Gong also wrote several times to object, but it was still not accepted."

"As a result, the two armies were so arrogant that the more than 200,000 troops, just like the common people, could not fight at all."

"Everything that happened after that was exactly as Zhang Gong expected."

Everyone was speechless when they thought of the several wars between Song and Xia at the beginning of the founding of Xixia.

Cheng Wenying regained his composure and said, "That's a long way off. Later, this Duke was appointed as the Third Secretary. Wang Gongchen and Prime Minister Wang proposed that the salt administration in Hebei should be changed to a government-owned and unified management system. In fact, it was a change to Jue affairs. Zhang Gong asked the officials what they were doing.

What's the basis? Officials say it's decided by the newly enacted tax law."

Su You smiled and said: "That thing is just a fishing bait. The maintenance of such high-end knives requires a lot of equipment, which is not something that the Erlin Department can complete. In the future, every time it is polished, it has to be sent to the Shijia Ironworks. Over and over again,

The connection has become closer. Are the graphite crucibles and stamping molds we need ready? The next step is big business."

Shi Dongxiu and Cheng Wenying both nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, this is a source of wealth. Your Shi family will be a spring here. But hurry up."

Shi Tong stood up: "I'm going to prepare now. I hope they come back in half a month and bring something different."

After everything was agreed upon, Cheng Wenying said to Su You: "It's the end of the year, but over there in Longli, Xiaoyou, you should go back. After you go back, study peacefully at home and don't do anything random. I will come to pick you up after spring.

When you enter the city, you will be officially admitted to the Enlightenment School."

"Remember, remember to study peacefully. Of course, if you have some elegant interests, you might as well do it. But for those who are farming savages, don't follow the example of Mr. Zhong Xiangong. It is better to have less contact and less contact."

Cheng Wenying didn't explain the reason for this pretentiousness, and Su You couldn't ask in detail in front of so many people, so he had to agree first: "Then I will go to the Tutu Temple to explain, and then return to Kelongli. I have been out for a while, so

I don’t know how my uncle is doing."

Everyone looked at Su You with smiles, which made Su You's suspicious character appear again: "Is there something you are hiding from me?"
