Wang Pang talked about Aries wine in a lively manner, and it was obvious that the drunk man was already salivating. He was enjoying the good wine and food, and Wang Pang, Cai Xiang, and Ouyang Xiu drank to their heart's content that day.

On the way back home, Cai Jing asked in confusion: "Sir, you are so awesome! When talking about the inscription of Shi Shi, you actually led An Guogong to talk about Qin Shilang sending fragrant cakes. How did you know that Qin Shilang sent gifts to An Guogong? "

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

"Me? When did I tell you?" Cai Jing was confused by what Wang Pang said.

"That day we went to the coal field in the northwest water gate. You went to inquire about it and came back and told me that this year's gifts would not be jewelry and emeralds, but fragrant cakes."[

Cai Jing thought for a while, and it seemed that something was going on: "But I didn't say who sent An Guogong as a gift?"

Wang Pang secretly laughed in his heart. This kid is sometimes smart and sometimes confused, but it is normal for him not to know. Duke An Guo must have received the fragrant cakes, but it was not sent by Qin Minzhi, but someone sent gifts to Duke An in the name of Qin Minzhi. At such a sensitive time, such commodities are in short supply, and the year-end assessment is coming soon. An Guogong is also the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, which is the person in charge of the official assessment. And now in Bianjing City, how many people can be sent to An Guogong's palace? Who else could have a hundred pounds of coal but Qin Minzhi? No matter how stupid Mr. An was, he would think of Qin Minzhi first.

When the two returned to the house, the lights were still on in the hall, 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: "Young Master? Yu Danian I quietly brought you two carts of coal, and you sold one cart to Ruan Xing. Where did you take the other cart? I haven’t been here for the past two or three days, so what are you doing?!"

"Give me a gift!"

Lu Shenyan almost jumped up when he heard this, "Gifts? Car after car?"

"Shhh" Wang Pang made a shushing gesture to Lu Shenyan: "What's going on, Mr. Lu?"

Lu Shanyan frowned and whispered: "Sir, our family is different now. If you resign and you don't even have a salary, and you close the teahouse, then you can't support this big family in Jinxiu Tower. You can't be like before. Such lavish spending. I have calculated that with our current expenses, if you are tight on money, we can survive in three to five years. If you continue to be lavish, this person will eat what the horse feeds, and I, a clever housekeeper, will not be able to make rice out of rice."

Seeing Lu Shenyan's nervous look, Wang Pang laughed and said, "I'm not lavish, but you are a clever woman who can make a living with rice?"

"Huh?" Lu Shenyan snorted, seemingly stuck by Wang Pang's question.

"Sir, what are you muttering about?" Jiao Deyou asked loudly when he saw Lu Shenyan holding Wang Bian muttering.

"Brother Jiao, it's okay. Everyone, please rest. We'll talk about anything tomorrow morning!" Wang Pang said to Jiao Deyou.

Everyone said hello and dispersed. Tong Xiao pulled Wang Bian: "Dad, Guan'er has been waiting for you all night. Daddy, please tell Guan'er a story!"

"Tong Guan!" When the king saw Tong Xiao calling himself Guan'er, he shouted unconsciously. "Guan'er is here!" The child agreed quite smoothly.

Wang Pang was both angry and funny: "What is the wrong name? It has to be Tong Guan. If you become a high official in the future, don't say that I am your godfather!" Wang Pang said angrily.

"Okay! Just tell Guan'er that you are my biological father!" Tong Guan didn't understand what Wang Pang meant by this, so he happily agreed.

Wang Bian took Tong Guan back to the bedroom, thinking to himself all the way, this is going to cost his life, but now this is a ten-year-old child, and the name was decreed by the Queen Mother. It is not easy to change it, but it is not seen. Seeing no other solution, he returned to the bedroom and said to the king: "Your name is Tong Guan, that's fine. Did the Queen Mother say that you should decide whether to enter the palace after you become an adult?"

"Yes, daddy, Guan'er doesn't know how long it will take?!" Tong Guan suddenly closed his eyes, seeming a little regretful.

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

"Dad, don't you know? You can also marry a wife after entering the palace. I knew Yang Jian had a master wife?!" Tong Guan said unconvinced.[

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

Tong Guan saw Rou'er coming in and said, "Dad, can the decoration be used to serve people?"

I can't explain it no matter how I explain it, and I can't explain it if I continue to explain it. I can't tell Tong Guan about physical hygiene. It can be said that the ancients got married early, but they were not as precocious as modern children. What's more, Rou'er is inexplicably... Looking at myself, I seem to be asking: What decoration?

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

Tong Guan pouted and said unhappily: "I've heard that it's laborious and troublesome, but I've never heard of laboriousness. Guan'er didn't say much."

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

Wang Pang's frustration has just emerged. If he was still as cautious as when he just traveled through time, he would naturally not encounter this problem. Although he has shown wisdom beyond ordinary people, he is mostly cautious in his words and deeds, not to mention costume dramas and I have read too many books and understand some ancient principles, but if I completely let go, I am afraid no one can keep up with Wang Pang's thinking.

Wang Pang comforted Tong Guan to go to bed early, but he couldn't fall asleep. He thought about what Lu Shenyan said in his mind. There had been economic crises in the past, but this time it was absolutely true. Firstly, there was no royal reward, and secondly, There was no support from the adoptive father, and thirdly, he had no salary. In addition, the business was shut down and confiscated. Even if Jinxiu Tower could be revived, it would not be enough to maintain the family.

This time Wang Pang was on his mission to Korea, the Liao Kingdom, and he had several million taels of Korean food stamps and Japanese slave debts, which seemed to be a lot of silver. Although it could threaten the Korean economy, the current currency circulation and exchange was still limited. None of them are linked to each other. These are distant water that cannot quench the near thirst and are far from being able to be discounted.

Today is different from the past. It will take three or four years until Zhao Zhongzhen ascends the throne. He must not die before dawn. Wang Pang is thinking about what to do next.

That night, Wang Pang was in a daze. He slept until midnight and dreamed of Yuexia. Yuexia held the Yuejin stone and smiled to himself and said: "Husband, now that I have this stone, maybe one day we will We will meet."

Wang Pang woke up from his dream all of a sudden. He sat up and thought about his dream. It was not unreasonable. If there really is that stone under the moon, even if it is more than today, it will be a time travel. Maybe under the moon, it has traveled through several dynasties. , but maybe it’s just one or two days, or three or five years, that’s all uncertain.

Thinking of this, Wang Pang smiled and thought about what he was thinking about. Looking at the other bed in the room, Tong Guan was sleeping soundly. He must have drank a lot yesterday, although he clearly remembered drinking with Cai Xiang and Ouyang Xiu. We talked freely, and remembered the intermittent events when we returned home, but I couldn’t remember when there was an extra bed in the room. I must have forgotten to ask yesterday. Maybe this child was too willing to spend more time with me, so he bothered Rou’er to add an extra bed. It's possible, not to mention that if Tong Guan is over ten years old, he can't sleep with him.

Wang Pang lay down again. He was drowsy and didn't sleep much before he was woken up by Tong Guan. Looking at the light, he didn't realize that he was sleeping so deeply. If he was leading troops to fight, the enemy would probably rush into the camp. have no idea.

The father and son were practicing in the courtyard as usual. According to the time, it was currently six or seven o'clock in the morning. The servants and maids of the house got up one after another, going in and out to clean the courtyard or prepare breakfast. Suddenly, Lu Shanyan came to the garden, behind him There was also a young master and an attendant.

"Young master, where are you practicing? I'll take this young master to his house to have a look." Lu Shenyan greeted Wang Pang.

Wang Pang felt a little strange, but since they were not looking for him, they might be Lu Shenyan's relatives, so Wang Pang ignored him. After a while, Lu Shenyan sent the two people out again. After Lu Shenyan returned to the garden, Standing there and watching the king practice his sword.

The king took a look at Xingyi Swordsmanship, and when he had stopped, he looked at Lu Shenyan, who was stomping around because of the cold: "Butler Lu, do you have anything to do with me?"

"Yes, sir, the man who just came here is the housekeeper. He said that your house costs five hundred taels of gold, which is too expensive. Let me discuss it with you. I haven't waited for your reply." Lu Shenyan did not stop walking.

"Huo, you are looking at the house so early? You are sincere enough. Where is he now?" Wang Pian laughed.

"We are waiting in the hall, would you like to go over and have a look."

"Let's go take a look!" Wang Pang said to Lu Shenyan. He turned around and saw that Tong Guan was practicing vigorously. He thought to himself, no wonder this kid will be brave in the future. Looking at it now, he is indeed a good material for martial arts. It's a pity that he is afraid of his own skills. I can't teach him.[

Wang Pang was thinking in his mind, but did not stop. He and Lu Shenyan came to the front hall one after another. The table had been set up in the hall, with several bowls on it, and the cook was placing a large basin of porridge on the table. This is breakfast for Wang Pang and others. In addition to porridge, there are pancakes, scrambled eggs and some pickles.

At first, the family did not expect that there would be guests in the hall, and breakfast was put on the table as soon as it was ready, but today’s breakfast was unusual. Although there were no tofu and fried dough sticks in the Song Dynasty, people in the Song Dynasty also had breakfast. Eat some rice and snacks. When Wang Pang returned to his house, he naturally asked the chef to make what he wanted to eat.

This large pot of porridge is not just ordinary rice. It is preserved egg and lean meat porridge that Wang Pang specially taught the cook to make. The hot and fragrant porridge was placed on the table. The young master who came to see the house stared at this porridge. A big plate. I guess these two people must have missed breakfast when they visited the house so early.

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

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