Chapter 997

The group of people all kept their postures motionless, watching Su Dongpo, the old driver, from sitting and chanting, to slowly standing up, with his big hands on his back, and wandering around the stove unsteadily, with the words in his mouth Still mumbling.

At this moment, Mr. Wang couldn't help feeling a little flustered, and subconsciously pulled Zong Ze who was sitting next to him. "Lord Zong, how much did Prime Minister Su drink?"

"It should, it shouldn't be a lot, I guess it's only about a catty, what's the matter, Mr. Wang, are you worried..."

"Well, I'm a little worried. Is this old man suffering from alcohol poisoning?" Wang Yang raised his hand and scratched his chin, but it didn't seem like it. After all, the symptoms of alcohol poisoning should be coma.

But what is Su Dongpo's strange situation?Pre-stroke?Unlike, Alzheimer's?Hmm... that's getting too far.

"You brat, don't talk nonsense and arrange old man, believe it or not, I will beat you..." Su Dongpo, who was worrying about the country and the people, was thinking about the country's major affairs, and was almost kicked by Wang Yang's nagging conjectures. past.

"Hey, Uncle, as long as you are fine, my nephew is concerned about you..." Wang Yang laughed a few times, and he was secretly relieved. He was really afraid that this old man would go off by worrying about the country and the people. Obsessed.

"The old man has an idea, hahaha..." After angrily scolding Wang Yang just now, perhaps because of his clear thoughts and quicker thinking, Su Dongpo suddenly burst into laughter.

"Su Xiang, what idea did you come up with?" Zhong Shidao, who was silently collecting experience points in internal affairs, couldn't help asking.

"Of course it has something to do with this kid." Su Dongpo pointed at Wang Yang like a sword and said proudly.

"Me?" Wang Yang looked dazed, maybe the old driver was thinking about something crazy again.

"I'm afraid I won't be staying here for long on Shaanxi Road, but I'm also worried that your temper will be unstable, so I will fight with the newly appointed Shaanxi Road Manager, so I decided to spend some time here."

"But if you stay any longer, you won't be able to stay for long. The court will eventually choose someone to come over." Having said this, Su Dongpo couldn't help but sighed softly.

"The three prefectures of Yan, You, and Hong have a bright future under your management. However, the three prefectures of Yin, Shi, and Long, which have just been merged into the territory of the Song Dynasty, have just suffered from wars, and most of the people have died. With the defeat of Xixia troops and leaving the land of the three states, there are very few people left."

"It can be said that all industries are withering, and all wastes are flourishing. At such a time, if an unfamiliar official is allowed to deal with it, do you think he can let you, the economical pacifier of the three states, extend his hand to the three states? to go?"

Wang Yang looked at Zongze, and Zongze also glanced at Wang Yang and nodded sadly. "What Su Xiang said is very true. I am afraid that when the time comes, we want to ask Mr. Xiao Wang for advice, but we will offend the immediate superior. This is a trivial matter, but if the superior interferes and suffers so much for the migrating people, then it will be a big deal." Big.”

Wang Yang's complexion couldn't help but gloomy, and he set his eyes on Su Dongpo.These are all practical problems. Could it be that Su Dongpo, an old driver, has thought of a good way to deal with it?
"So, the old man is going to ask the court to play. Since Beiliao dared to set up a Hedong Road in the north of us, why can't we set up a Shaanxi North Road here?"

"Shaanxi North Road?" Wang Yang was taken aback for a moment before he realized it. "You mean to combine the lands of Yan, You, Hong, Yin, Shi, and Long into one Shaanxi North Road?"

"That's right, that's what it means, and the old man will recommend you to the court to be the appeasement envoy of the North Shaanxi Road Economic Strategy."

Hearing these words, Zhong Shidao and Zong Ze couldn't help but their eyes lit up, and their eyes fell on Wang Yang.

And Wang Yang's eyes were also shining, he quickly stood up, and bowed solemnly to Su Dongpo. "Stick what you want, don't dare to say goodbye."

"If it really succeeds, then Wang will definitely do his job conscientiously, and make this land in northern Shaanxi another rich and prosperous town in the Song Dynasty."

Su Dongpo stroked his long beard, patted Wang Yang on the shoulder, and said with satisfaction. "Yes, this is Wang Wushan whom I am optimistic about. He is always hypocritical and rises to the challenge."

"If it can be done, then Zong will be much more relaxed. In the future, he will definitely have to walk this way more..." Zongze couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief. With this Lord Xiao Wang who recommended him as his boss, it is inevitable Things are much smoother.

"This boy, it seems that no matter where he has been, as long as there are new things that are useful, he can find a way to make the best use of them. These things are really real enough. The stuffing inside should be warm and tight..."

Gao Taotao looked at the young eunuch in front of him, and this eunuch was Zhao Xu's confidant eunuch Ma Shang and Eunuch Ma.His body was dressed like a cotton ball man.There is a cotton hat on the head, a cotton coat on the body, cotton trousers on the lower body, a pair of cotton shoes on the feet, and of course a pair of cotton gloves on the hands.

It's just that this kind of thick cotton gloves does not have five fingers, only the thumb is separated, and the other four fingers are set together, which is quite similar to the boxing gloves of later generations.

Emperor Zhao Xu circled around this guy with great interest, but after wandering around for a long time, he finally noticed something was wrong. "The emperor's grandmother is right. Hey, you kid, you didn't scare you or yell at you. Why are you sweating all the time?"

"Your Majesty, servant girl, servant girl, this is for heat...Please allow me to take off this body..." The Ma Shang Ma Gong said with a sad face.

"Is it so hot?" The emperor looked back at the faintly red copper furnace not far away, and then he was relieved. "Hurry up and take it off..."

Ma Shang happily agreed, and hurried to the side to quickly take off this thing. To be honest, he couldn't put on a stick of incense, and the clothes inside were almost soaked in sweat. All.

There is no way, after all, this is a winter coat worn outside, and its warmth retention is naturally excellent. However, it is as warm as spring in the Spring and Autumn Palace. Ma Shang will only feel worse than death when wearing this thing, and will not feel warm.

"Such a set of equipment that can withstand the cold outside the house in the bitterly cold place in northern Saibei is actually only four to five hundred yuan, which can indeed be regarded as high-quality and cheap." The emperor Zhao Xu picked up a brand new cotton glove from the side, and put it on. Shaking his hand, it was very novel and authentic.

"No wonder Wang Wushan kept talking about selling wasteland and earning a lot of money before. I thought this kid was fooling around. As a result, those lands that cannot grow food can actually grow this kind of land that can be woven into cloth or stuffed. The cotton for heating is really, really beyond my expectation..."

"That's true. In the past, although cotton cloth was strong and durable, the price was really not acceptable to ordinary people." Gao Taotao said deeply. "I remember that when Aijia was young, he used to hang out in the cloth shop. I still remember that the price of cotton cloth at that time was comparable to that of mid-grade silk."
