Chapter 94 Reunion of Old Friends
Strictly speaking, Chen Dong is a begling.
The once dream of repaying the country and the once full blood have been ruthlessly broken by reality again and again. He can't go back, because his home has been sealed up by the government, and the Tai Academy has already removed him. If it hadn't been for the help of several blood classmates, he might not have been able to get out of the capital, and the government is looking for him everywhere.
After leaving the capital, he didn't know where to go, but he heard that many places such as Jiangnan were revolting. It seemed that only Dengzhou was relatively calm, and he also had an idea that he would leave the land of the Song Dynasty forever and never come back overseas.
Chen Dong himself has no savings. It is a miracle that he only went to Dengzhou without starvation with the help of his classmates, but there are still two silver boats to sail to sea?
Now he also understands that his fucking bookishness and human dignity are all bullshit. Only filling his stomach and living is reasonable.
It was under the domination of this thought that he became like this.
With ragged clothes and beards, he squeezed together with a group of beggars to grab the leftovers from others.
Is he the vigorous Chen Dong at the beginning?
Song Qing can hardly recognize him.
For a moment, he walked into the roadside teahouse, found a corner to sit down, and then asked Shi Xiu to find Chen Dong.
Chen Dong looks like a beggar in front of a beggar because no one knows him. But when he saw Song Qing, he turned around and left, but of course he couldn't get out. As soon as he turned around, Shi Xiu stopped him.
However, it was Chen Dong's move that made Song Qing see that this person was still saved, at least he still had a sense of shame.
"Brother Chen, why don't you know me as soon as you say goodbye to the capital?"
There are changes in Song Qing, but they are not very big. Except for the more powerful and dark skin, the rest are still the same.
Chen Dong didn't leave and couldn't help sighing: "I didn't expect to see Brother Song in such a place. Since this is Brother Song's subordinate, what happened in the capital must have been planned by Brother Song."
Chen Dong obviously recognized Shi Xiu and said so. He glanced at the guards such as Song Qing and Hammer, and suddenly smiled and said, "If you guess correctly, you are Song Qing and Song Erlang, who is in the limelight now?"
Song Qing looked at Chen Dong with a smile and said, "Go on, what else can you see? That's right, I'll invite you to be the governor of Dengzhou Prefecture."
Denzhou Prefecture.
Chen Dong couldn't help but light up and be able to govern one side, which was what he once dreamed of. But I didn't expect it to be so easy now.
You should know that Tai College is the highest university in the Song Dynasty, and many senior officials have gone out from there, so Song Qing can't take the exam if he wants to consider Chen Dong, but Chen Dong is now thinking about whether to work for Liang Shan.
What does Song Qing do? From Chen Dong's hesitant eyes, he guessed what he was thinking now.
"What? Are you still thinking about working for the Zhao family?
The Zhao family is the surname of Song, and Song Qing has acquiesced that he is going to rebel. If Chen Dong is willing to get on his boat, then they will be their own people from now on. If Chen Dong refuses, Song Qing will not be difficult for him. After all, it is impossible for him to rise up with his current situation.
In a moment, Chen Dong made a decision. This kind of thing is an opportunity for him. If he can't catch it, he is likely to be a beggar for a lifetime. Is this what he wants? Fuck the Zhao and Song Dynasty! He was full of blood, but in exchange for what he is today, he has already hated the rotten Zhao dynasty in his heart.
Looking around and seeing that there was no one else in the teahouse, he said, "If the guess is right, the chief manager wants to sit and watch the world rise, and then reap the benefits of the fisherman, right?"
"Haha! Well said, Chen Zhifu, can you take office with me now?
Chen Dong's words really speak to Song Qing's heart and watch the world rise. Didn't he choose to develop along the coast just because he didn't want to get in the chaos of the Song Dynasty?
Chen Dong has vision and ability, which is the talent that Song Qing urgently needs, and there are deeper reasons for Song Qing to send the magistrate without hesitation.
That is, with Song Qing's current identity, it is too difficult to recruit talented people, but Chen Dong's joining is likely to change this situation. He is a talented student from a famous university. Can he not have some classmates like him who are enthusiastic but have no way to serve the country?
Although Chen Dong only found one person for Song Qing, Song Qing was very satisfied.
Chen Dong felt as if he had a dream, looking at the rags on his body, looking at his former friends who were begging together in the corner of the wall in the distance, and then looking at Song Qing sitting in front of him.
Is all this true?
Song Qing could understand his mood and turned to tell Shi Xiu to take Chen Dong to bathe and change clothes. He wandered around the street casually.
The Song Dynasty has attached great importance to coastal development, but it is in the south. Dengzhou is located at the front end of the Shandong Peninsula. Although it has great geographical advantages, it has not been utilized.
Therefore, compared with the state capital in the mainland, Dengzhou looks much more shabby. There are no decent buildings on both sides of the street. There are many shops, but there are not many people coming in and out, which is a depressed scene.
The appearance of a city, which shows the economy of the region, can even reflect the will of those in power.
When he first entered Dengzhou, Song Qing had decided to completely transform the appearance of Dengzhou, not only to become the second Liangshan old camp, but also to build it into a metropolis integrating commerce, politics and military.
This matter has been put on the agenda, and Song Qing has also had some communication with Ma Tao, hoping that their Ma family can provide more help to drive the economy of Dengzhou.
Ma Tao, also called Mingyuan, is the second son of the Ma family, a giant merchant in the south of the Yangtze River.
Song Qing used practical actions to prove that he was definitely a person who could let the Ma family bet, so Ma Tao fully supported Song Qing. While fulfilling his previous promises, he also gave two 5,000-dan sea boats to Song Qing.
The action is two 5,000-dan sea boats. I'm afraid their Ma family is more rich than Liangshan, right?
Now Song Qing believes that Chai Jin told him that what Ma Tao said is not bragging. As long as they don't have the business they want to do, they can't do it.
There was an east wind, but Song Qing still lacked a person to lead the east wind. At this time, Chen Dong appeared.
It can be said that Song Qing has high expectations for Chen Dong. If Chen Dong can live up to Song Qing's expectations, Song Qing will give him greater authority in the future.
Several streets were turned around in a while. Before Song Qing wanted to return home, the bodyguards in the house came over.
"The general manager of the newspaper, two people who claim to be your old friends come to visit you"
Old friend?
Song Qing was a little puzzled. He knew many people, but there were not many people who might be called old friends. He even thought, "Isn't it Yue Fei coming?"
Thinking of Yue Fei, Song Qing's heart couldn't help warming up and accelerated his pace to walk to the house. But when he saw someone coming, he couldn't help but be stunned.
Wan Yan Baokang, Wan Yan Keer. Zhu Fu had found out the information of these two people and handed them over to Song Qing before his death.
These two people are obviously aunts and nephews, but they are regarded as brothers and sisters, which makes Song Qing despise them very much.
This time, neither of them did hide it. Although they were not wearing golden clothes, they were also gorgeous clothes, showing their grace and nobleness.
They owe themselves 10,000 war horses and 200,000 yuan of food, but they still dare to come to them. They are really brave. Is it possible that they really come to pay the bill?
Song Qing knew that they were really ordered by A Gu to pay the accounts, but the price of these things was Song Qing's loyalty to Dajin.
Wanyan Keer is still so beautiful. Among the women she came into contact with by Song Qing, she is undoubtedly the most beautiful. But Song Qing always looked at her with a look at wood, which made the little girl really hurt, and the deeper the resentment against Song Qing in his heart became.
Although Song Qing did not think of paying off the debt, he could guess their intention.
Of course, Song Qing can't do it like last time and lock them up again. Song Qing is becoming more and more convinced of the strategy. I ordered someone to bring tea to the two nephews.
He said with a smile, "Are you two so interested in coming to my state? Isn't it a special trip to see me?"
Wanyan Baokang has now admired the emperor's vision. The emperor asked him to come to Dengzhou to see Song Qing. At the beginning, he did not believe that Song Qing would go to Dengzhou, so he came out with a play mentality. But I didn't expect Song Qingzhen to lead troops into Dengzhou.
Wanyan Keer was secretly brought out by Wanyan Baokang.
The two have been in Dengzhou for a few days. When Song Qing entered Dengzhou, they had been hesitating whether to come to see Song Qing. The emperor had an order, and Wanyan Baokang did not dare to disobey, but what if Song Qing still detained them like before?
In the end, Wanyan Keer made a decision. She could not disobey the emperor's will and had to come to see Song Qing, so they came. As for Wanyan Keer's true thoughts, I'm afraid only she knows.
Looking at Song Qing's smiling face, Wanyan Keer resisted the impulse to beat him and sneered, "Are you very fragrant? Do we still have to make a special trip to see you? After saying that, she blushed a little and didn't want to see Song Qing. What did she do?
Wan Baokang hurriedly said, "The last time, Director General Song raised his hand and let us go back. My father was very grateful and asked me to express my gratitude to General Manager Song. At the same time, he wanted to make an agreement with General Manager Song on how to accept my original commitment to the General Manager."
Keep your promise?
Song Qing thought he had heard it wrong. At the beginning, the lion opened his mouth and shouted out 10,000 war horses and 200,000 yuan of grain ransom, but he didn't think that he could cash it.
Song Qing never believed that pie could fall from the sky. Wanyan Baokang came all the way. Obviously, it was not as simple as fulfilling his promise. However, war horses and food and grass are what Song Qing really wants.
nodded and said, "I heard that female heroes are the most reputable. When I saw her today, it was true. Since Brother Wanyan has this sincerity, if Song refuses again, he will seem to be pretentious. I will send someone to contact you and ask you two to go down to rest first. After a while, I will set a drink to pick up the wind and wash the dust for you two."
Wanyan Baokang saw that Song Qing's attitude had loosened, and he was immediately overjoyed. If he could complete the task assigned to him by the emperor, the emperor would not pursue his last mistake, and even reuse him.
Wanyan Keer, who wanted to say something, also went to rest under the guidance of the bodyguard.
Looking at the back of the two, Song Qing smiled silently.
