Chapter 96 The reputation has been raised

Make an appointment with three or five friends in Bianjing City. It is both decent and fashionable to drink tea in Yunxuan. It is not much money to drink camellia in Yunxuan. What's more, in this scientific examination, Yunxuan sponsored the candidates to drink tea in the examination room.

If it weren't for the scientific examination, it would be a very serious matter for the attention of the whole country. Wang must put up a big banner in the examination room, which said: "If you are afraid of getting angry, drink Yunxuan tea. Yunxuan is a special sponsor for this scientific examination!"

At the same time, it should also be noted that Yunxuan, who has the opportunity to live in the top three scientific examination, provides you with a free VIP silver medal throughout the year. Pay attention to Yunxuan tea and pay attention to the scientific examination............

It's off topic. Although Wang didn't do much, Yunxuan's fame is not only famous for providing tea for scientific research, but also because Yunxuan has become more famous since Wang Yanjun won Sanyuan in a row. What's more, the "Taste picture" with Wang Yansuo's inscription hung in Yunxuan.

On the three days of Yunxuan's opening to the public, before dawn, there will be some rich people who will send family members or book boys to line up for their masters; some people hire people to queue up. They really don't have so much money, so they simply get up early in the morning to queue up by themselves. On the opening day, some people often leave with regret because they came late and were not qualified to enter.

These people can enter Yunxuan. In addition to seeing the famous poems and paintings in Yunxuan, or making an appointment with friends to show their value, there is another way to leave a word in Yunxuan. Maybe this word will be picked by the emperor in the white dragon and fish suit one day, so that even if they miss the three best, they still have a chance to be remembered.

For these words, the king ordered his men to keep them properly. In fact, it may not really be given to the emperor, but who knows which calligraphy and painting in it will be worth a lot of money in the future. What's more, for Wang Bian, a person who came to the Song Dynasty, even a piece of paper, a pen or a plate and a bowl, anything that can be brought back to modern times is priceless.

Every time the king talks to Yuexia, his fantasy is actually Wang's experience in modern times, such as houses, cars, mobile phones, computers, Yuexia will hear it brightly, and even Wang himself thinks that if he has the opportunity to take Yuexia back to modern times. No wonder Wang thought so. In ancient times, in addition to reading at night, he seemed to have nothing to do except reading and talking in the dark. Especially now that he has the moon, it is even more impossible to sing at night.

People who leave home will be homesick, not to mention that Wang has been in the Song Dynasty for three or four years. Although he has adapted to the living habits of the ancients, after all, he knows the legend of wearing ancient and modern stones, and he will always have some ideas in his heart.

The time has not stopped, and Wang is about to leave after the autumn exam. The news came from Zhang Yi's beggar gang: the white stone god of Xixia appeared. However, the content of the news is that Liang, the queen of Xixia, gave birth to a son and was regarded as a white stone god by the Xixia people. Wang Bian decided to inquire about it in person.

When Wang was in Yanzhou, he had seen the Xixia people take Yuexia as a white stone god, but he knew in his heart that the ability of Yuexia to perceive other people's thoughts was given by the white jade. The stone under the moon has been smashed. Are there any other similar stones?

What he wants to solve at the present is the problem of buying horse money. Since Li Enxi told Wang Bian that the actual funds of Meyer's mansion were not as Wang Bian imagined, Wang Bian realized that he had a mineral, a total of the capital tea industry, plus a restaurant and a tea shop, so many business turnover funds were only more than 1,000 taels of silver, accounting for the flow of 3 to 500,000 yuan in modern society. Funds.

Since Wang thought of this, he knows much more about the concept of money. Thirty-500,000 yuan is really not much. What's more, the cloud pick has been pressed by the court for a few months. The more the "cloud pick" is released, the more money Wang's side will be suppressed.

Besides, raising horses is not a trivial matter. Even if it is a hundred hectares of land, the land for raising horses is mainly Longyou and Youyun. However, in the Northern Song Dynasty, Longyou was occupied by Xixia, and Youyun was occupied by Liao. Even if horses are used in wartime, most of the horses will be lost on the road or when they arrive on the battlefield. Although the profits of the horses supplied to the court are quite high, if the survival rate is low when they are used, I'm afraid that the king can't eat them. These things can't be solved by Wang's recruitment or design a membership system.

However, the good news also came over time. The cloud extract with the recruitment was distributed. In less than ten days and a half months, there were Caozhou, Puzhou and Jeju on Jingdong West Road; Zheng, Cai, Ying and Ru on Jingbei Road; and Xiang, Ding, Xing, Huai, Wei and other states on Hebei West Road. There are rich local businessmen who want to join.

These states are relatively close to Bianjing, and the reputation of Jinxiu Building has long spread to these places, and these places are also the fastest to get news. Among them, there are six or seven companies that meet the requirements of the king, so the temporarily overturned silver is slightly more abundant.

Take time for Wang to visit Wang Anshi and Bao Zheng. Wang Anshi is fine over there. Lord Bao has been ill since the beginning of summer. Wang has visited him several times, but he is still worried. After all, Lord Bao treats himself well. Regardless of the world's evaluation of Lord Bao, the king still gets along well with Lord Bao. What's more, Lord Bao protects the king everywhere, so that the king can have today.

Wang Bian had so many things in his heart. He selected the best tea from the teahouse and was about to visit Lord Bao. Suddenly, he heard the messenger coming and Zhao Wang to meet him, and he was in a hurry. The king hurriedly changed his clothes and entered the palace with the edict officer.

The king saw Emperor Renzong sitting on the dragon chair, frowning and looking at the imperial table in front of him. The king thought that Emperor Renzong didn't think that the imperial meal was not suitable for his taste and let himself cook in person, right? In that case, you'd better leave the capital early, otherwise you will really become a royal chef.

He came forward to see the emperor of Renzong. Hearing the emperor say that he was flat, he stood next to him respectfully. At ordinary times, Renzong had something to ask him. Today, Renzong didn't say anything. Wang stood like this, and there was a silence in the room. Renzong waved his hand, and the people on both sides retreated, pointing to the seat next to the table.

The king understood that Emperor Renzong was in a bad mood today. He took a look at the dishes on the table. The dishes were relatively simple. It was the dream of all chefs to be a royal chef, but it would be a blessing to be the imperial chef of Emperor Renzong. Renzong is the most simple emperor in the legend. He not only eats simple meals, but also never adds meals.

There is a story in the palace that Renzong was hungry once and endured it all night. The next day, the queen asked him why he didn't let the imperial dining room cook something to eat. Renzong replied that if he asked the imperial dining room to do it this time, the imperial dining room would prepare for him every day in the future, which would not only waste but also affect the rest of the chefs and palace attendants in the imperial dining room. This incident and the old dragon robes that Renzong wore in private every time the king saw Renzong were very moved.

After a long time, Renzong sighed: "Mr. Wang, which of these two dishes in front of me is better?"

In front of Renzong, there is a colorful "su assorted", which is the "beautiful rivers and mountains" that the king once made for Renzong in the Jinxiu Building, and Renzong admires them endlessly. Another dish is a wooden barrel of mutton, named "unification of the country", which is the same word. This mountain is naturally the mutton to deal with.

Wang looked around and saw that Renzong was not necessarily entangled because of the smell of mutton or assorted vegetables. The emperor was entangled with the names of these two dishes, so Wang said, "Your Majesty, these two dishes seem to be edible at the same time. I don't know why the emperor didn't move his chopsticks for a long time?

Renzong shook his head: "Which emperor is not fishy, but if he wants to unify the country, I'm afraid that this beautiful rivers and mountains will inevitably be ruined."

Wang side smiled and said, "Then you have to choose one. If it's cold and both of them are tasteless, it's better to choose one. Or you can have both."

Renzong still didn't move his chopsticks. He pointed to the table and said, "I allow you to eat with me. You choose the same."

The king picked up his chopsticks. This wooden barrel of mutton is his favorite. In particular, the material made in the imperial dining room is definitely high-quality lamb. The heating of the wooden barrel keeps the meat delicious. The beautiful country can be made by himself. At ordinary times, he will definitely start with the unification of the country.

But the king's mind turned. The emperor was so eager to recruit himself into the palace. It should not be just because he didn't know what to eat. And now the dish is still hot. It should be arranged by the emperor on purpose.

The king is not stupid, and he is not stupid in his previous life. What's more, after so many years in society, he said, "The grass people like to cook this dish for the emperor. I also want others to cook this dish for the emperor. Is it better than the grass people?"

Renzong frowned and stretched a little. He looked at Wang and asked, "How is it better than you?"

Wang said that he put down his chopsticks and said, "The ingredients of the imperial dining room can't be compared with the small restaurant, but the grass people are naturally more careful. This can't be compared."

Renzong laughed when he heard Wang's words. He knew that the king was shrewd. Since there was such an important thing, he was relieved, especially the border between the two countries. Now he knows that the king did not want to peep into the unification of the country.

He saw that Wang was staring at him, so he said, "Xixia has repeatedly committed harassment, which is related to their salt production. Although our country prohibits smuggled Xixia salt trafficking, if someone smuggles salt across the border. Some people were arrested at the border, both Song and Xixia, which have not been dealt with for the time being. I don't know if Xixia deliberately sent troops for this reason.

When Wang listened, he knew that Renzong had something to do with him, but it was not his turn to take care of the border, so he listened to Renzong and continued, "Originally, it was enough for the border garrison to execute according to the order, but you have also heard the words of Emperor Shangao Yuan. I think it is so rampant here in the private salt trade. It must be There is a secret. I'm going to send you to check it.

When Wang heard about this, he would go there anyway, so he said, "The people are willing to investigate this matter for the emperor"

Renzong nodded and continued to say, "There is another thing. The State of Xixia sent an envoy to say that there was a young Confucian merchant in our country, and this food and tea were original, and he also invented incense cakes, inviting you to teach." This Xixia person has been harassing and sending envoys since Li Yuanhao claimed to be emperor.

No wonder the emperor wants to try himself. If he wants to peep into the country, it will be troublesome to go back and collude with the Xixia people. However, the king really didn't plan to do that. The emperor was also too superstitious. In this case, he would take the order. Anyway, I also want to go there. I didn't go to the name first, and I don't know if Xixia is too special because of Wang's identity. He is not an official and has to be favored and is still young. I want to see what's going on.

The king is already a famous crane. When he opens the door of Xixia Tongshang, he must take advantage of this, and he must make himself famous.
