Chapter 138 Jia Changchao: Does the prince need internal support from civil servants?

——

Zhao Shi didn't quite understand,

In fact, he and these old foxes were still far behind in their skills. However, Zhao Shi did not think about it for too long or was afraid of anything. He just paused for a moment and then naturally got into the sedan. This was a very simple sedan.

The person carrying the sedan chair was very steady.

swaying,

swaying,

Zhao Shi arrived at the place without feeling any discomfort. Then Di Yong came over and opened the sedan curtain for Zhao Shi. Zhao Shi got off the sedan and looked up: "Alum Tower?"

Alum Tower again?

Zhao Shi seemed tired of watching it.

"no."

There was an old man next to him who was probably older than Bao Zheng. He shook his head with a smile and said: "Everyone thinks that Fan Lou is good, but I only like the tea shop in the alley behind Fan Lou. I would like to have you forgive me."

.”

Zhao Shi was startled,

It's not that he didn't expect this man who was two years older than Bao Zheng to be Jia Changchao, but Zhao Shi didn't expect that he would take the initiative to greet him.

Just like Zhao Shi said before,

The literati of the Song Dynasty paid great attention to the so-called integrity of character, and they probably had some thoughts of using the emperor and princes to gain fame. Therefore, let alone the ministers, even the middle and upper ministers with the power to know the Kaifeng Mansion would hardly be able to take the initiative to invite them, and also invite them.

Greet you warmly outside.

He is afraid that scholars will say that he has no spine.

But Jia Changchao,

Although Jia Changchao now seems to be seeking the position of Privy Councilor instead of being a down-and-out official, in fact, he has already achieved the position of participating in political affairs and Privy Council a long time ago. It is just because Ouyang Xiu and others can't stand it, and he was led by Ouyang Xiu.

Several censors in the country used the excuse that the locust plague came from the sky as an excuse for the husband's inaction, and they killed him abruptly. However, he still bore the title of Pingzhangshi under the Zhongshu family, and he could still be punished.

Someone calls out: Mr. Xianggong.

And a husband,

Not only did he take the initiative to want it, but he even took the initiative to wait outside to greet him. It was really...

The dough is thick enough.

What Zhao Shi thought in his heart was different from what he said on his face. In his heart, he felt that the other party's bottom line was lower than that of ordinary officials, but on his face, he looked moved. The conductor said politely: "My junior Zhao Shi, how dare you trouble me to greet your husband?"

Jia Changchao smiled carelessly,

Returned a gift,

Then he took Zhao Shizhen around the Fan Building and entered the alley behind. What people didn't expect was that the Fan Building was in front of him, but in this alley there were tea shops and restaurants everywhere. Jia Changchao turned around

Asked: "Mr. Sir, do you know why this is?"

Zhao Shi hesitated for a moment,

He replied: "Ordinary people think that Fan Lou is a big restaurant. The closer you open a store near Fan Lou, the more money you will lose. But in fact, if you change your mind a little, you will understand that it is precisely because Fan Lou is a big restaurant.

As a big restaurant, it will also attract more guests, and not all of these guests can afford the expenses of the restaurant. Moreover, if they can afford it the first time, they may not be able to afford it the second time.

Although the Fan Tower is large, it can only accommodate so many people every day, so instead, it is easier for the restaurant to survive by opening a tea shop near the Fan Tower."

Jia Changchao was slightly surprised and even gave a high-five: "My husband's knowledge is far beyond that of ordinary people."

Zhao Shi looked at the already busy street...

You don't have to,

Praise me so hard.

certainly,

Maybe Jia Changchao did it on purpose. He just deliberately praised him so bluntly, so that Zhao Shi could see in advance that he had something to ask for. Then Jia Changchao led the way and continued walking in, while shaking his head and saying: "It's just that opening a store like this will make it easier to make money."

, but after all, he is just picking up people's wisdom and can live a good life. However, it is almost impossible to become a Fanlou again."

After saying that,

After walking another two or three hundred steps, Jia Changchao stopped, pointed at a dilapidated restaurant in front of him and said, "Do you know how many years this restaurant has been open?"

Zhao Shi shook his head,

He really doesn't know this.

"Nearly a hundred years ago, it almost opened together with the Alum Tower, but..." Jia Changchao shook his head: "The gap is like clouds of mud."

Zhao Shi took a look at the store, but had a different opinion: "I think otherwise. The reason why Fanlou can stand for a hundred years is because it has been making money and making progress. This store is obviously not that profitable, but it can still stand for a hundred years. Isn't that right?

Does it mean that it actually has more to explore than Alum Tower?"

Jia Changchao was startled,

He couldn't help stroking his hands: "The gentleman's knowledge is indeed different from ordinary people." Then he pretended to invite Zhao Shi into the store. The area of ​​the store was by no means small, but there was only one table, and the man behind the counter was in his thirties.

The woman looked lazy and didn't greet people when they came in. She just watched them stand for a while and then asked lazily: "But do you want something to eat?"

"yes."

Jia Chang nodded, and then waited for the woman to go to the kitchen to cook, then he leaned into Zhao Shi's ear and said, "What Lang Jun said hit the nail on the head. This store has stood for a hundred years. Except for the shopkeeper's obsession, that's all."

The cook was also passed down a hundred years ago and her skills are excellent."

Say it!

He took the initiative to pour a cup of tea for Zhao Shi, and Zhao Shi hurriedly took it with both hands.

I have to say,

Although Zhao Shi is a student of Bao Zheng, in terms of the feeling of getting along with each other, Jia Changchao is obviously better than the two of them who are about the same age. He can hardly speak with a cold face and said with a smile: "Also, this family

The tea in the shop is also excellent, you might as well try it."

Zhao Shi nodded,

Be kind and follow the flow,

Then drink it in one gulp,

I have to say,

Although the Song Dynasty can be said to be the most embarrassing dynasty in history, it has almost reached the pinnacle in terms of culture, enjoyment, small details, etc. Zhao Shi couldn't help but said: "It tastes good." He has never drunk such good tea in his later generations.

Of course, it may be that Zhao Shi was just an ordinary student in later generations, but now he is among the top students.

Jia Changchao then laughed and said: "This tea is called Big Buddha Tea. It is said that the tea saint Lu Yu spent several years to find it specially for his teacher. It is sweet and mellow in the mouth and has a long aftertaste. A bowl of this tea costs ten thousand dollars."

.”

Ten strings?

Zhao Shi hurriedly drank two more sips, then shook his head and said: "Jia Xianggong is very knowledgeable. Even if I live eight more lifetimes, my juniors will not be able to match him. Therefore, if Xianggong has something to discuss, you might as well say it directly."

Jia Changchao was startled,

Then he slowly shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It's because the husband has been unable to compare with me for eight lifetimes. It's obviously because I'm getting older, but I lack Lang Jun's indomitable vitality. Whatever! Since the husband is straightforward, I will also be straightforward.

Go back..."

Said,

a meal,

Then Jia Changchao stepped forward and asked, "Does Mr. Lang need civil servants to support him?"

puff

Zhao Shi almost spit out a bowl of ten-cup Buddha tea in one gulp, but he didn't have to be so straightforward!

Then,

Zhao Shi raised his head and looked at Jia Changchao, but saw that the other party seemed to be very sincere and nodded. Zhao Shi frowned and asked: "Ruling a country requires the assistance of civil servants, and civil servants are not one person or two people. Why did Jia Xianggong say this?"

Jia Changchao shook his head with some disappointment: "Mr. Lang made me feel energetic again. Now that I am angry, why does Lang Jun seem to be getting older? He hesitated. Even though I was once an official, everything I did was unsatisfactory.

, I thought that now that I am getting old, I really want to do something."

I believe you ghost,

Zhao Shi stood up slowly and said with emotion: "Jia Xianggong, old man Fufeng, is really a role model for our generation. Zong Ji worships him."

Jia Changchao twitched the corner of his mouth slightly, then stood up and said: "Why do you have to be so self-effacing? Your husband suddenly gained power, but he was not impatient or impatient. He did things first and then gained power. That's why he was so humble."

"Although I am many years older than you, I still admire you endlessly!"

Said,

He was about to bend down to salute. Zhao Shi hurriedly walked over to support him, and then helped Jia Changchao sit down. Jia Changchao's face was slightly bitter, and he asked unwillingly: "Lang Jun really doesn't need me to provide some advice among the civil servants."

?”

Zhao Shi's hands trembled, and he hurriedly and even panickedly explained: "Where did Mr. Jia hear this rumor? Civil servants are the foundation of governing a country. Why should I dare to think like this?"

Jia Changchao then remained silent,

Then,

The food was served, and it was indeed good. However, neither the old man nor the young man had any intention of talking. After eating in a hurry, Zhao Shi took Di Yong and his two mothers to say goodbye. Jia Changchao looked at Zhao Shi's back and wiped his mouth quietly.

He said: "Our husband is indeed very ambitious."

"Um?"

The woman behind the counter raised her head and said in surprise: "The shopkeeper said..." But she only said these few words. Jia Changchao gritted his teeth again: "And he looks down on me."
