Pang Shiwu followed Feng Jiuxiao, "Brother, is Big Jinya talking so well now?"
Feng Jiuxiao smiled and said: "Don't forget, he is the emperor's brother!"
The emperor's brother, his sign is very tough!
Pang Shiwu sneered, "Then Li Yu has to recognize him! Li Yu respects him as big brother, and he is a relative of the emperor. If Li Yu doesn't take him seriously, he is just a grandson. Who will treat him as a dish?
?”
"Hey, I haven't seen you for a few days, so I'm going to look at you with admiration. I've learned a lot!"
Pang Fifteen groaned, "Stop laughing at me!"
Feng Jiuxiao smiled and said: "What you said actually makes sense. If the emperor doesn't give in to him, he is a piece of shit! But people's hearts are so different from each other. You think so, but others may not think so! We are all ordinary people, who dares to point fingers at the royal family?
? Even if Li Yu has any thoughts in his heart, he will never reveal his inner thoughts to others. It is the emperor's skill to be indifferent to emotions and anger! No matter what his attitude is towards the golden tooth, others dare not speculate!
Even if Li Yu criticized Da Jinya in public, do you think these ministers would dare to bully Da Jinya?"
Wang Sheng interjected: "These ministers certainly don't dare! The power of God is unpredictable! Who knows what the emperor's attitude towards the Golden Tooth is! Just after he finished scolding him, he rewarded him heavily. If those who are following the trend are half too slow,
Isn’t it flattering to the horse’s feet? I don’t know how he died by then!”
Pang Shiwu said: "I feel that Li Yu definitely doesn't like Da Jinya! Da Jinya is too smart! If I were Li Yu, I would definitely find a chance to kill Da Jinya!"
Duan Muyan disagreed with his point of view: "If I were Li Yu, killing the golden tooth would do no good at all. It would only prove that I am narrow-minded and have no magnanimity! Only by keeping the golden tooth can I highlight my image of caring about the world and loving all living beings.
!If that’s the case, why not do it?”
Feng Jiuxiao said: "Yes, I think your point of view is closer to the truth. So I judge that Da Jinya's current condition is not bad. He can still pull the tiger's skin and raise the banner! He can still prosper and prosper, and the whole South
Who dares not to give him three points of thin noodles?"
Pang Shishi said: "I'm surprised. I feel that Li Yu obviously hates the big gold tooth, but he has to show a generous look. Doesn't he act like this all day long and get sick? If it were me, he would have to be depressed.
And you can’t die!”
Feng Jiuxiao said seriously: "Brother, for a person who is good at acting, they can do this kind of duplicity and duplicity with ease, and they are not panicked at all! They have long been accustomed to it! Li Yu wants to be in the courtiers
To show the supreme majesty of his words in front of the people, to show the generosity and love of Yao, Shun and Yu Tang in front of the people, to show the most sincere care in front of the ministers, to talk to others and to tell ghosts, Li Yu can definitely be called
Excellent! You can’t even imagine his happiness!”
At this time, Duan Muyan noticed that the big golden tooth disappeared from the wall, and he should have come down to greet everyone. He said in a deep voice: "Do you think Li Yu has ever thought of killing him?" Of course he was referring to the big golden tooth!
Feng Jiuxiao said: "As long as Big Jinya does not care about political affairs and does not interact with the military, Li Yu will easily not touch him! Li Yu's foundation is not stable now. If he starts massacring his brothers and eliminating dissidents at this time, it will inevitably make people chill!
If he really does this, the entire Southern Tang Dynasty will be in turmoil, and everyone will be in danger! His position as the new king may also be on the rocks!"
Duan Muyan frowned and nodded: "Well, if you don't let your brothers go, this is equivalent to sending a very dangerous signal! Those generals with heavy troops will naturally feel that they are also doomed, and they are under heavy pressure.
In order to survive, it is very likely that you will take risks and raise troops to rebel!"
Wang Sheng said: "So this big golden tooth has actually become a weathervane of the situation in the Southern Tang Dynasty! If he is alive, everyone will feel a little more at ease. If he dies, the Southern Tang Dynasty will immediately be in chaos!"
Everyone walked and talked, and soon approached the city gate.
Big Gold Tooth is waiting at the city gate with a smile on his face.
"Master Feng, are you okay?" His smile was not tight, and he showed the big gold teeth in his mouth, which shone in the sun and were very dazzling!
But when everyone looked at the big gold tooth, they actually felt kind of friendly! Apart from being a bit naughty, there really wasn’t anything annoying about the big gold tooth!
Feng Jiuxiao clasped her fists and said with a smile: "Very good! How is Brother Li doing?"
Da Jinya deliberately smiled obscenely and said, "Young master, your kidneys will be fine! Brother Yu, you're fine!"
Seeing his expression, Feng Jiuxiao knew that he had made a homophonic joke, so she laughed and said: "Is it possible that Brother Li's kidneys are not good recently? That needs attention. I know a little about medicine, how about I help Brother Li feel his pulse now?"
Saying that, he reached out his hand!
Da Jinya laughed and immediately ducked away: "No, no, my kidneys are good too! My kidneys are pretty good! Please come in!" There were so many people here that he didn't want to stay here for a long time. Feng Jiuxiao also laughed and said, "Please!
"
The two walked side by side towards the city.
When he entered the city, Da Jinya winked to the left and right, and several soldiers came over to take over the reins. Some led the horses, some drove the carts, and followed the crowd. Naturally, they kept a certain distance from Da Jinya. These people all
Looks like you are well trained!
After entering the city gate, there was a clicking sound behind them, but the city guards turned the winch and pulled up the suspension bridge again. Feng Jiuxiao thought to herself: These soldiers have a very strong sense of prevention! They did not relax for a moment!
The city gate was filled with infantrymen wearing armor and strong weapons. They were all young men who were brave, high-spirited, and murderous! You can feel their power by looking at them!
They looked at Feng Jiuxiao and his group with sharp eyes, as if they were looking at spies from an enemy country, and they were on high alert!
Feng Jiuxiao thought to herself: "Fortunately, all the women are sitting in the carriage, otherwise we don't know what kind of trouble it would cause!" Once these young soldiers saw Xiong Mengyan, they were afraid that they would not be able to turn their eyes away and their noses would bleed!
The street is very wide and clean, and the road is even paved with marble slabs. It seems that the whole street is covered!
Wang Sheng cursed in his heart: What a luxury! Even Chengdu is much more luxurious! Standing here, human beings feel extremely small! You can imagine how huge the scene was during the construction of the project!
Feng Jiuxiao stood with her hands behind her hands and said: "The roads here are really wide. There are at most four lanes in Dazhou, and most are two-lanes. Here you have at least four lanes, and most are six lanes! And the road is paved.
When it comes to marble, is it necessary to make it so majestic? Don’t you think it’s a waste?”
Da Jinya laughed and said: "What a waste, it's very common here in Southern Tang Dynasty!" He was quite complacent!
Feng Jiuxiao sarcastically said: "The businessmen who undertook this project back then could have made a lot of money!" Although the government has specialized craftsmen, it is generally difficult for the court to send people to undertake such projects in local areas, so it is normal to outsource them to private craftsmen.
Something! Some businessmen who undertake civil engineering projects came into being!
Da Jinya laughed loudly and said: "You only see people making money, but you don't see the hardships they endure. You won't be jealous of those businessmen who work like others, right?"
Feng Jiuxiao smiled and said: "Isn't jealousy a human nature? From what you just said, it seems that there is no story about corrupt officials and profiteers, but it does reveal a lot of bitterness and blood and tears!"
"Don't tell me, this is really a history of bitter blood and tears!"
"Oh? Tell me."
Several people even walked and talked, Wang Sheng, Duan Muyan and others also became interested, and they all took a few steps closer to the big golden tooth.
Da Jinya said: "Many years ago, the roads here were too dilapidated, which affected people's travel, so the governor here followed the public opinion and reported to the court to build roads. The prefect at that time was also named Li, and he reported to the late emperor, saying
It was necessary to build a road. The emperor said yes, let's build it! Li Taishou said that since it was necessary to build it, he should build it better and wider. He said that in a few years the area would develop very fast and the population would also increase dramatically. The narrow road was not enough.
Based on past experience and practices, we will definitely not be able to keep up with future development needs. Anyway, there are many reasons. At that time, the late emperor also happened to have the ambition to revive the glory of the Tang Dynasty, and he just waved his pen to achieve it! But the premise was that only a part of the money was given.
You can deal with the excess by yourself! With the emperor's imperial edict, Governor Li started to have fun! He directly set the road standards. The passages between counties were two-lane, and the distance between Changzhou City and the counties under its jurisdiction was four-lane.
All the main roads in the country were paved with six lanes! You must know that only the streets in Jiangning, the capital city, had six lanes at that time. There were few states and prefectures in the world with even four lanes. Almost no one dared to build roads with more than four lanes. Prefect Li was so courageous and
The courage makes me heartbroken!"
Feng Jiuxiao said: "There were not a few businessmen who wanted to take over the project at that time, right?"
Da Jinya said: "That's not the case! The rich, the powerful, the powerful, the people with backgrounds are all here! If not a hundred, there are eighty! The key is that the meat is too fat! Prefect Li had expected it.
This matter was difficult to deal with, so he set up an arena to select horses in a race, and the winner won the bid!"
Feng Jiuxiao couldn't help but his eyes lit up: "This idea is very novel! What else can it compare to?"
"Of course it's better than building roads!"
"How does this compare in the ring?"
"Haha, it's not the arena you were thinking of! The so-called arena is to randomly select a few of the poorest villages and towns around Changzhou, use their main roads as test subjects, and distribute them to businessmen who are willing to undertake the project, and let them perform the prescribed tasks
Build a good road within time! One hundred people's representatives will vote beans to determine whether the road is well built, and the ranking will be determined by the number of beans! The more beans, the higher the ranking!"
Feng Jiuxiao's eyes flashed, "This is an interesting idea! This Prefect Li is so smart!"
Pang Fifteen said: "Brother, what's going on?" He felt that the person whom the eldest brother admired must be awesome, but he didn't know where this person was so awesome!
Feng Jiuxiao smiled and said: "On the surface, the prefect took the poorest village as a test subject, but in fact he took those businessmen as a scapegoat and took advantage of them!"
Wang Sheng smiled and said: "I understand. Regardless of whether these businessmen won the bid or not, they will build a road for free for the local people first!"
Pang Shiwu suddenly realized, "Damn it! This official is so awesome!"
