"Isn't this a bad title?" Su Shi felt a little confused.
"Hey, regardless of age, we only look at ability. I have always respected people with ability, hahaha. Well, men stand between heaven and earth, so they should be more open-minded. Calling them nothing but trivial matters, yes
No, Su Xiaoyou, Su brother."
Pang Ji, who was smiling all over his face, had wrinkles all over his face. Su Shi couldn't resist the enthusiasm, so he had to agree, "In this case, from now on I will call you Brother Pang Pang."
"Haha, is this right? Don't worry, you will be my brother from now on. If you have any difficulties, just ask, and I will help you if I can." Pang Ji patted his chest and said as if he was taking care of me.
Although Pang Ji held the official position of Zuo Jianyi, he was actually still the Yanzhou observation envoy. This time he only accompanied the Xixia delegation to Beijing. Once the mission was completed, he would still have to go back. He did not think that he could still stay.
In the capital, naturally there was nothing to help Su Shi.
Saying these words is nothing more than throwing out a blank check to show that you are being righteous.
However, Pang's status was unknown, but Su Shi knew that after returning to Beijing this time, he would stay here and be promoted to the post of Councilor for Political Affairs, and was awarded the title of Minister of the Ministry of Staff. He would soon become an important official in the court.
And from then on, Pang Ji could be said to have risen through the ranks, being promoted all the way and finally assuming the position of prime minister.
This is definitely a thigh. Now this leg is actively handed to him. How can he not hug it?
"Okay, if the elder brother says so, the younger brother will take it seriously." Su Shi said with excitement on his face.
"Of course, big brother has no other skills than keeping his word, hahaha." Pang Ji just thought that Su Shi had been deceived, so he continued to laugh, and after he finished laughing, his face began to change.
With a sudden change, he said, "Oh, brother Su, I won't hide it from you. I am poor in Yanzhou. There are wars there all the year round. The little salary I have is used to subsidize the sergeants below. Otherwise, I will admit you."
For such a talented person to be his younger brother, the eldest brother always wants to receive some decent greeting gifts, but now..."
It's both sighing and complaining, and its meaning is self-evident.
Su Shi finally understood what Pang Ji meant.
Su Shi just said that? Although he has gained some fame recently, there are still too few people who know about it. Pang Ji is just a foreign official, so why does he use the pole to have a relationship with him? The emotional root is here, he
Want to make money.
Pang Ji wants to make money and live a better life. There is nothing wrong with this. Everyone has the right to pursue a better life. Besides, when people come, they lower their profile so low. Compared to those who
He looked arrogant, but in his heart he was a male prostitute and a female thief, a very dirty hypocrite. Su Shi preferred a true villain like Pang Ji.
Don’t you just want to make money?
There is no other way here in Su Shi, but there are many strange things. If you take out any of them at will, you can make money, or make a lot of money.
If you give such a thing to someone who talks about benevolence, justice and morality, but actually doesn't know what he is thinking in his heart, it would be better to cooperate with Pang Ji. At least if you cooperate with such a person, you don't have to worry about him dealing with you behind your back.
When everyone has a common interest, moving you is equivalent to moving the entire team, and you will naturally feel much safer if you stay in it.
After thinking about it, when Su Shi raised his head and looked at Pang Ji, he had a smile on his face and said, "Brother Pang, what are you talking about? It's my honor for you to consider me my brother. How can you return it?"
If you want to continue to make big brother spend money, let’s have a cigarette before we talk.”
As he spoke, Su Shi took out a box of cigarettes and handed them to Pang Ji.
"This is..." Pang Ji, who had never seen anything like this before, was at a loss. He didn't understand why his words suddenly changed to this matter.
"Brother Su, this is a cigarette, it is for smoking. It can relieve boredom, relieve worries, and relieve fatigue. Especially when you are thinking about some important things, it is one of the best aids. Of course, like afterwards,
...No! If you smoke one after a meal, it will make you feel more comfortable."
While introducing, Su Shi took out two cigarettes from the box. One was put to his mouth, and the other was handed to Pang Ji. Then the lighter suddenly appeared, and then the light sight appeared like a magic trick.
This lit the cigarette in his mouth.
After taking a deep breath, Su Shi looked very comfortable. Then he looked at Pang Ji who was still there and said, "Come on, brother, I'll light some for you."
As he spoke, the flame appeared in front of Pang Ji, causing him to come to his senses and nod his head repeatedly: "Oh, okay."
As if he was curious, and as if he didn't want to show his timidity, Pang Ji lit the cigarette with the fire in Su Shi's hand, and then he took a deep breath, and then a loud coughing sound came out.
"Cough, cough... It's so choking. What is this?" Pang Ji, who was obviously smoking for the first time and was not used to it, wanted to throw the lit cigarette to the ground.
"Brother, don't. This thing is like this. It's like this the first time you take a bite. But once you get used to it, you'll know its beauty. Try two more bites?" Su Shi said in a bewitching tone.
Said.
Cigarettes are basically a standard item for men in later generations. Statistics show that at least two-thirds of men around the world are smokers, and even about one-seventh of women are smokers.
.
Although there are words harmful to health printed on the box, why are so many people still flocking to it? In the final analysis, it is because it can refresh people's mood, and in many cases, it can quickly bring two people closer to each other.
It has such an impact on future generations, Su Shi believes that it will not be too bad today. As for the harm this substance will cause to the body, to be honest, how many people actually die from smoking? Not to mention,
The average life span of the Song Dynasty was less than forty years old. At this age, all aspects of the body's functions will be good in future generations, but they still died. The more reason is the social environment and the advancement of medical technology.
The main reason is underdevelopment, and the harm caused by things like cigarettes is very limited.
The important thing is that this thing is really profitable, and it also has a certain degree of psychological dependence, which plays an extremely important role in increasing Su Shi's influence and importance. Besides, even if Su Shi doesn't come up with this
If things come, they will still be taken out by the Spaniards in the future. Instead of doing this, it is better for Su Shi to do it. At least he has money and can do many beneficial things for the Song Dynasty.
In a word, Su Shi decided to get out the cigarettes. The harm to the body of the cigarettes produced by the system has been reduced to the minimum, but the benefits it can bring to him are absolute. He will not bring out such good things.
I really feel sorry for the system.
After Su Shi's persuasion, Pang Ji finally finished the cigarette. Although it was far from addictive, it was not as uncomfortable as the first puff.
"Brother Su, you said this thing is called a cigarette, why have I never seen it before?" Pang Ji also thought that he had traveled all over the country and had seen a lot. But why had he never heard of such a thing?
"Haha, Brother Pangda, have you ever seen Rencha before? Have you ever drank Shaodaozi?"
"None of these existed, but now they have appeared? And they are still selling very well."
"The world is changing, and human beings are the smartest creators. It is precisely because of our human intelligence that we have more and better things. If we humans stop moving forward, we will still be at the stage of eating raw meat.
Cut it off."
Listening to Su Shi's theory, Pang Ji nodded in understanding, but one thing he knew clearly was that this cigarette might be as popular as Rencha and Shao Knife. "Brother Su, what do you mean?
Say, this thing can make money?"
"Yes, not only can you make money, but you can also make a lot of money. Brother Pangda, didn't you just say that you are short of money and don't have a meeting gift? Then this is the meeting gift that the younger brother gave to the elder brother. With this thing, the elder brother will not be in need after keeping it.
Money, hahaha." Su Shi laughed very confidently.
This smile infected Pang Ji. He seemed to have seen that a lot of money had been put into his pocket, and he said to Su Shi with a wretched look on his face: "Come on, Brother Su, here's another one."
Within a short time, Pang Ji puffed up three cigarettes. When he tried it for the first time, he felt a little nauseous, so he stopped.
"Brother Pang Pang, this thing is not like tea and wine. Everyone has been drinking it for many years. It requires an adaptation process. In this way, you can take this cigarette back first and smoke it slowly. When you know how good it is,
Come and find me, and we will discuss how to cooperate when the time comes."
Su Shi knew that haste makes waste, so he spoke calmly.
"It's OK, it's OK. Brother, I still have government affairs to take care of. I'll come see you when I'm done with these two days." Pang Ji knew it was time to leave. Although he didn't know much about cigarettes yet,
But just recognizing a younger brother, and getting so many benefits, it's worth it no matter how you look at it.
Su Shi smiled and said: "Brother Pang Pang is a person who does big things. You go and do your work. Take away the cigarettes and give you this lighter. Just treat it as a meeting gift for my little brother." A pure copper lighter.
Exquisite and unique, it is definitely a precious thing in this world, but in the system, it can be exchanged for only two points, so it is really nothing.
"Okay." He reached out unceremoniously and took the pure copper lighter. Pang Ji's face narrowed into a slit. At this time, he looked more and more pleasing to Su Shi.
Pang Ji's arrival was a bit sudden for Su Shi, but it was also an unexpected surprise.
As far as Su Shi knew, Pang Ji was very good at figuring out the emperor's heart, and what he did and what he said was very in line with Renzong Zhao Zhen's appetite. Otherwise, how could he be promoted to the prime minister in an unusual way?
It is of course a good thing for such a person to be his friend, not his enemy, and Su Shi can only dream of it.
