Chapter 300 Yangzhou Fireworks Ground
Wang and Shen Kuo were close to a thousand cups of wine. During the banquet, Shen Kuo repeatedly mentioned his student named Li Jie, and said that Wang Feng also wanted to see this person named Li Jie.
For two days in a row, Shen Kuo came to Wang after busy business. Wang saw that Shen Kuo came alone, and he was a little puzzled but difficult to ask more questions. On this day, he finally waited for Li Gefei to Yangzhou. Wang and he had not seen him for many years. Naturally, he was particularly intimate when they met him. There was no need to talk about the past. I heard that Wang said that Wang wanted to Opening banks and other businesses in Yangzhou, Li Gefei patted his chest to guarantee that his three-year term had just begun. As long as Wang began to do this in Yangzhou, he would definitely help.
When the date of departure was set, Wang Bing went to the magistrate Hu Su one by one, and judged Wang Gongchen to say goodbye,
I heard that Shen Kuo and Li Ge insisted on giving him to Wang in Wangchunlou. The little sister bowed her head and said nothing. When Wang side tidied up her clothes and wanted to go out, she blushed and told him, "Husband, don't drink less and don't touch flowers and grass."
The king immediately understood what the little sister meant. Yangzhou is a place of fireworks. This place of fireworks has two meanings: one is the beautiful spring scenery, and the other is the geisha. Wangchunlou is the most famous restaurant in Yangzhou. Naturally, there are official prostitutes selling wine and beautiful geisha. He deliberately teased the little sister and said, "My wife's words are good. It's not right. When Song Taizu released the military power with a glass of wine, he publicly encouraged the ministers to 'buy more songs and dancers'. How can you sing the opposite tune with Zu Xun?
Of course, Su Xiaomei knew that what Wang said was a joke. She said coquettishly, "Bah, you have many reasons. The Taizu is to beat down the country and encourage the ministers to 'buy more songs and dancers' in order to let the ministers enjoy comfort and not want to make progress. Take this as the imperial edict." The little sister was so coquettish that he made Wang laugh,
Wangchun Tower is located in the west of Changchun Lake in Yangzhou. This Changchun Lake is the moat of Songcheng, and also the water flow to the canal of Shugang Mountain. It is said that the descendants of Changchun Lake may not know it, but when it comes to the Slender West Lake, it is a famous beautiful scenery in later generations. The Hongqiao Range Rover and Changdi Chunliu by the lake, and the Wangchun Building is even more beautiful in spring, singing and accompanying. The singing prostitutes of the wine are beautiful. Wang secretly thinks that there are many beautiful women in Yangzhou. No wonder the little sister wants to tell her,
In the elegant room on the second floor, Li Gefei and Shen Kuo have been waiting there for a long time. They are bowing their heads and saying something, and their expression is still very serious. Seeing the king coming in, Shen Kuo stopped talking and said, "Today, we are going to give our brothers a walk. We won't be drunk."
As Wang, he wiped his hands with a wet towel, he asked, "Why are you giving it to me? Isn't Brother Shen going back to the capital?"
Li Gefei said, "The case in his hand can't be settled. I don't think he can go back."
Wang thought that when Shen Kuo introduced him to the magistrate and the judge that day, he revealed that the case was a little troublesome. The case has not been closed until today, and it seems that it is not very smooth, so he asked with a smile, "What case makes Brother Shen so troublesome? It must be settled before he can take office."
Shen Kuo looked at the side of the king: "It happens that you can help me think about this. I have a big head. There is a family of people in Yangzhou who rented the house to a Gentile. The head of the family saw that the man had a box of gold and had a crooked mind. When the man left the house, he pretended to be a thief and entered the house and stole the box of gold. Did the family borrow it before? With less debt, he took the gold to pay off the debt. As a result, it was found that the gold was fake, so he sued him to the government. He confessed the tenant again. Guess what, the tenant did not admit that the fake gold was his.
After listening to Shen Kuo's words, Li Gefei shook his head and said to the king, "If nothing, is our brother Shen too stubborn? This is not a big case. The man admitted that he stole and sentenced him to stealing. As for the debt he owed, he had to pay it again. If the Gentiles didn't admit it, then If you don't pay him back, is it possible that you are still worried about other cases here, which will involve other cases? Isn't it even more impossible to leave?
Shen Kuo curled his lips and said, "What the Gentiles say are all mumbling. We can't understand. It's not impossible to conclude this case, but you know my problem. This fake gold is made like the real thing. The color is like softness without saying it, and it's also true. I don't leave late, I just want to ask. How did he do it?
When he said this, Wang Bian could definitely understand that Shen Kuo had to study what he was curious about. Not to mention that Shen Kuo couldn't let go of this matter, even Wang Bian was interested in it.
"Why, isn't there a translator in the state government?" The king asked puzzledly,
Shen Kuo replied: "Translator, that's the official of the court. Yangzhou is connected in all directions, and there are many foreign countries. If it is completely different, there are not so many translators. Local businessmen in Yangzhou are proficient in some, but they are all in business. Buy or not, sell or not, how much silver... Ask them to translate, and the result can What I understand is that the foreigners will say: noisy, noisy, the translator said that he just doesn't admit that the box is his. As Shen Kuo spoke, he learned from the expression of foreigners waving their hands,
Noisy, noisy, Wang looked at Shen Kuo's expression. Will he say no? Is it Europeans and Americans? Did the Song Dynasty already have maritime trade with Europe and the United States? Wang is more and more interested in "What does this foreign country look like?"
Shen Kuo stretched out his hand and said, "Big tall, yellow hair, that face, white and scary"
Wang was beating his heart. He knew a little English. Although he couldn't talk about CET-4 and CET-6, he still didn't ask questions about the simple dialogue. Should I care about this? He listened to Shen Kuo sigh and said, "Why is there something I can't think of?"
Li Gefei looked at his meditative appearance and said with a smile, "Os, I think it's you. Other people's trial is for fame and promotion, and you are trying to think about strange things."
Shen Kuo said unconvincedly, "Of course, you have to think about it, and then everyone will be fooled."
"The alarmist and alarmist." Li Gefei didn't take what he said to heart,
Wang looked at Li Gefei and thought that this guy was in charge of Cao Si now. Although he was full of poems and songs, he was a little idiot for money. He smiled and said, "Brother Li, this fake gold is not a small matter. Spending fake gold is a fraud, and if fake gold and silver are popular in the market, it will disrupt the money market. That's a lot of trouble."
"Why don't you two talk about it together? Brother Shen, you should try your case quickly. Your prince, you should handle your bank quickly. Oh~ I know. No wonder you care so much about this matter. If someone takes this fake gold to deposit it in the bank, the prince will lose a lot. Haha," Li Gefei turned the topic to Wang, and his heart He said that the prince was still involved in his business, not to mention that this matter had something to do with him, but then again, Li Gefei certainly hoped that Wang would help Shen Kuo figure out this matter. The three of them talked to the table full of wine and vegetables while eating,
"Uncle Wen is right." Hearing Li Gefei say this, Shen Kuo seemed to be inspired: "King Zhennan, you have to help me think about what to do about this."
Wang Zan thought to himself that he had just thought about this matter, and suddenly he put it on his head, "Haha, what's the big deal? I left two days late to help you figure out this case."
"If you can make it clear in two days, then I won't waste such a long time~" Shen Kuo said unconvincedly,
Wang side smiled and said, "Just two days, tomorrow you can show me the case file first, and then take me to the stranger's residence. In short, I will give you the result in two days."
It was probably a little hot just now. Shen Kuo ordered people to open the window, and the elegant room was next to the window. Outside the window, you can see a bridge made of white jade, elegant and beautiful, and the pedestrians on the bridge. Wang knew that this was called the twenty-four bridge by later generations. He asked Shen Kuo with a smile: "Brother Shen is so serious, but you know why the bridge outside the window is called. Twenty-four bridges."
"Twenty-four Bridges, I haven't heard of it... There is evidence that he called Twenty-four Bridges." As he spoke, he thought hard,
Originally, isn't this bridge called the twenty-four bridge now? The king can't admit defeat: "It is said that Emperor Sui Yang once borrowed twenty-four maids here** on the moon night, so it is called the twenty-four bridge. I have Tang poems as proof. On the bright moon night of the twenty-four bridge, where can the jade man teach to play the flute?"
Wang Bian felt that what he said was quite reasonable. Unexpectedly, Shen Kuo smiled forward and backward: "Brother, you are so funny. If you want to say that there are 24 bridges in Yangzhou, I believe that the westernmost side is the Zhuohe Tea Garden Bridge, followed by the East Daming Bridge; there is the Jiuqu Bridge in the West Water Gate, followed by the east is the south gate of Shuaiya, the Xiama Bridge, and the east. The workshop bridge, the east river of the bridge turns to the south, there is a washing bridge, followed by the south bridge..." He really counted more than 20 bridges in one breath,
This Shen Kuo is really a little energetic. Wang just wanted to praise him. Shen Kuo's words turned around: "Ten years of Yangzhou's dream, won the name of the brothel. Thinking of Du Mu in the Tang Dynasty, who has won the reputation of whoring customers for ten years in Yangzhou. Brother, taken out of context, should be twenty-four Jiao, especially from Du Mu's work, and more The word blowjob makes people fantasical, hahaha"
The three of them laughed together. Wang thought to himself. Fortunately, he didn't bring Su Xiaomei, otherwise Shen Kuo, who didn't have a door to speak, would make the little sister blush. Wang remembered the person recommended by Shen Kuo, so he asked, "Brother Shen has been in Yangzhou for several years. I'm afraid he hasn't gained as much as Du Mu, but you have finally got good students. Why haven't I seen it yet?
Shen Kuo was embarrassed for a while: "This, this, my student is more serious than me. He said that he just wanted to be a teacher, but he heard that the king of Zhennan was only in his early twenties. I don't know what you can teach him..."
Hey, this is interesting. Wang Bong has been rejected to Yangzhou twice since he was born. Once it was Qin Guan. The child was still young, and Wang Bong did not care about him. Moreover, Wang Bong's impression that Qin Guan is also talented in literature. At present, the most indispensable thing in the Song Dynasty is the literati. Li Jie actually took a hand. If he left like this, he did not Don't let people underestimate it. Wang's strength is coming up. Now he really wants to take this person from Yangzhou. "Oh, where does this Li Jie live? Brother Shen will take me to have a look tomorrow..."
Shen Kuo thought that this king was nothing more than a joke. How could a king of Zhennan go to see a craftsman?
