Chapter 42 The Dream of Song Gaosheng

"But it's not okay"

Hearing what Wang Pang said, Xiao Lu felt as happy as if he had won gold and silver, "Look at your status, you don't think it yourself, but from the perspective of us common people, you are already on a higher level. We are still worried if you can listen to us.

I offended you by saying the wrong thing."

He looked at the expression on Wang Pang's face, and continued without any displeasure: "The old man is here to save Mr. Bao's face, and he seems to be here to intercede with the robbers. You are also a young master, you are so slovenly."

He looked at Wang Pang and looked at him: "Everyone looks sloppy, but they are obviously not slovenly."

Xiao Lu changed his mind and said: "Yes, this old gentleman, no matter how rich he is, he is just a commoner, not to mention Master Di is still your mentor."

Wang Pang seemed to understand what Xiao Lu meant: "You mean, he left half of his words to see if I respect him and listen to him?" [

"Yes, yes, the young master summed it up well!" Xiao Lu agreed.

It seems that Zhang Yi wanted to see if he was sincere, so he came to visit him personally. When Helibao came back, Xiao Lu changed what Zhang Yi said to Wang Pang. Helibao said unhappily, "

Then, what should I do with Master Di’s revenge?”

"As a teacher who never forgets the past, at least let's remember Master Di's lesson first, and then we can rectify Master Di's name in the future!"

When He Libo saw what Wang Pang said, he immediately said that what Wang Pang said made sense, but he still couldn't figure it out. Xiao Lu asked from the side: "Brother He, I asked you that day, did you follow Song Dynasty?"

Fight against Liao, or follow Liao and fight against Song. How do you answer?"

He Libo thought about what he had said, so he remained silent. Wang Pang explained that he and he had been waiting at home for the past few days to hear news from the county government, and that he would be out for a few days. He Libo and Lu Shenyan looked at each other, thinking

I know that the king will definitely look for Zhang Yi.

Wang Pang came to see Zhang Yi with a generous gift, not gold and silver, but a sincere heart.

The terrain in the northwest of Chenzhou is lush and looming like a mountain. Here is the famous mansion of Chenzhou Zhizhou Zhang Yong, which is known as "Xiyuan" to later generations. There are several families near the West Garden, and the size of the courtyard is naturally larger than that in the West Garden.

The garden was very different, but it also showed that the family had a rich family and was not an ordinary family. Compared with the house that Wang Pang thought he was satisfied with, it was much inferior.

There was a house with the gate wide open, and occasionally people came in and out. Wang Pang stood outside the door and hesitated for a moment. The people inside didn't seem to pay much attention to anyone coming in. There were old people and children in the house, and the old ones were sitting there basking in the sun.

, children were playing in the courtyard, and it looked quite leisurely, but these people all wore similar clothes. Although there were patches, they were basically clean. Two or three women were talking in the corridor while holding needles and threads.

When the king saw this, he was wondering when a six or seven-year-old child ran up to him and asked, "Who are you looking for, sir?"

Wang Pang said to find Zhang "Tuantou" and the boy took Wang Pang's hand and said, "Here, I will take you there."

The child led Wang Pang from the Moon Gate to the inner house. As he walked, he asked Wang Pang: "Are you here with Mrs. Ya? Are you here to find a relative?" Wang Pang shook his head.

The child shouted in a very crisp voice, "Grandpa, someone is looking for you." After the child finished speaking, he left Wang Pang in the inner house, turned around and ran out to play again.

Zhang Yi walked out of the room, and when he saw it was Wang Pang, he laughed and said, "My nephew is looking for me so soon?"

Wang Pang said, "I came here to see you sir and ask for advice."

Zhang Yi smiled and said, "Look, I'm just a mortal, how can I give you any advice? It's up to you to make the decision."

Wang Pang said something that made him regret: "If you, old gentleman, are willing to help, I will definitely ask the court to reward you."

Zhang Yi is clearly a person who is not interested in being an official. If he wanted to be an official, he could have invited him long ago. As for his little Wang Pang, he came to use this expression. After Wang Pang finished speaking, he knew something was wrong.

All along the way, I was just thinking about how to solve Nan Jifeng's problem, but it turned out that I didn't get off to a good start when I came to meet the old gentleman.

As he expected, Zhang Yi smiled and said nothing, said a few more polite words that didn't hurt, and then turned around and went back to the room.

Wang Pannai, go back to the front yard. Just go back like this? That is absolutely impossible. He simply sits with those old people and inquires about the nature of this "tuantou".

During the conversation, I realized that these people in the front yard were old and weak beggars. Zhang Yi stepped down to the front yard to give the beggars a temporary shelter from the wind and rain. For those who were young or had physical strength, Zhang Yi contacted the "Agency Dental Sister".

If the disabled person really has to beg to survive, he should naturally beg in designated places according to the rules.

Zhang Yi and his wife lived in the inner house. Their daughter married young and her son was also engaged in business. However, his daughter-in-law couldn't stand the beggars in Zhang Yi's yard, so she moved out and built a new house. His wife took care of the beggars who sponsored them and gave them all the money.

For everyone. The people in the front yard also try their best to be self-sufficient and not trouble Zhang Yi. Occasionally, they help with housework, and Zhang Yi gives some wages.

What impressed Wang Pang even more was that there were orphans in the courtyard, just like the child who showed him the way. Those who were looking for relatives were taken away, and those who were not adopted were taken away. Zhang Yi would also teach some poetry and calligraphy in his spare time.[

Wang Pang was even more ashamed of his previous persuasion, so he returned to the inner courtyard for the second time and stood respectfully in the corridor, waiting for Zhang Yi to see him.

Finally, he did not repeat the three visits to the thatched cottage. Zhang Yi came out and said: "My dear nephew, if you are a self-responsible official, you will be safe."

Wang Pang said: "I'm not here to ask about this matter. I'm here to sincerely become my disciple."

Zhang Yi smiled: "What do you want to learn from my apprenticeship?"

Wang Ben knelt down on one knee and said, "I will learn whatever Master wants to teach me. Anyway, I won't leave."

This is not what Wang Pang meant to say. In terms of being a human being: doing good deeds for decades is beyond the reach of others; in terms of business: Zhang Yi seems to be frugal but he is already rich and can support so many people; in terms of knowledge: the affairs of the world

It was no less than what Shen Kuo knew. The most rare thing was his objective evaluation of Nong Zhigao. Not to mention these, Lord Bao also told Wang Pang to ask Zhang Yilai to master the swordsmanship, but Wang Pang had to wait for Zhang Yi to approve him.

.

How could Wang Pang be content with Zhang Yi casually teaching him a few sword skills in honor of Master Bao?

Zhang Yi was naturally happy to see Wang Pang's sincerity. He let Wang Pang enter the room, and the two of them sat down. Wang Pang respectfully listened to Zhang Yi's teachings.

Zhang Yi said: "I said those two roads, what do you think?"

Wang Pang said: "If I am an official in the court, I will not do anything to protect myself. If I am an official in the court, I will learn from Di Qing. If I am not given a way out, I will learn from Nong Zhigao."

Zhang Yi smiled and said: "Since you have this ambition, let me ask you. What do you think is the highest state of military strategy?"

The king replied: "An army can be fought without bloodshed."

Zhang Yi nodded: "How to drive away the enemy's troops without fighting?"

Wang Pang explained that after all, he had not experienced a real battlefield. Zhang Yi asked him to think for a while and said: "Although I am not an official in the court, I still know a little about the big and small things in the court, and the officials in the surrounding prefectures and counties here also respect me. That's it.

Even the robbers in Longhu want to give me some face. Do you know why?"

Zhang Yi continued: "After many years in business, I only know one thing: money! It can save your life, but it depends on whose money you use!"

Wang Pang was very surprised. It felt too conflicting to say these words from the mouth of this god-like person. Zhang Yi pointed to the house outside.

"As your righteous father said, if he doesn't achieve this status, how can he love the people? Today my teacher tells you, if I don't achieve this wealth, how can I help people? If you have both, what are you afraid of?

Why did Xixia commit crimes repeatedly, and why did the Liao Kingdom live in peace? Is it just a matter of geography? There are small and big money, and the same is true for merchants."

Wang Pang had an epiphany. He had only been a rich man and an official for a few months. He wanted to worry about food and clothing. But when he was just about to show off his talents in court, he realized that this officialdom was like a battlefield and could kill him at any time. "Master, can I understand it this way? I will pay you to do it."

Officer, you will listen to me!"

"If you are smart, you are a fool if you donate your own official position."

"What if I pay for someone else to be the emperor?"

Now it was Zhang Yi's turn to be surprised. What was Wang Pang thinking? Wang Pang was shocked when he saw Zhang Yi. He knew that he would not understand the Rothschild family, let alone Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley. But anyway, he was dead.

If you wear it again, just go back to being like Goldman Sachs in the Song Dynasty. It’s not like you have no experience in doing business. Anyway, if you don’t want to be the emperor, then be a consortium.

Zhang Yi just took it as what Wang said casually, and he said: "I am young, and my son only cares about making a living in front of me. If you don't have this vision, since you are sincere today, I will accept you. First, learn some Heavenly Escape Sword Techniques from me."

Self-defense and business skills need opportunities to be honed slowly. Now that you are somewhat famous, it will not be difficult for you to become a success in time."

Zhang Yi asked again: "How do you plan to deal with the suppression of bandits?"
