It was drizzling and drifting with the wind. It was wet everywhere, and the heat did not fade away, making it very uncomfortable for the body to stick.

There was nothing wrong with Xu Ping, Gao Daquan, Sun Qilang and Sang Yi gathered around a stove to eat hot pot.

There was also this kind of hot pot for eating around a pot, but the hot pot I eat now was brought by Xu Ping, and according to the style of his previous life, he made a hot pot.

Xu Ping himself didn't like hot pot, and it was just a whim when he made it. In order to miss his previous life, Gao Daquan and Sun Qilang fell in love with him. They had nothing to do and made a small hot pot in their room to drink. Today's pot and vegetables were also the same.

The three of them clinked the cup, and Sang Yi looked at the continuous drizzle outside and said, "It has been raining for three days. Yesterday we came back from Qianlongdong. The road was still dry and refreshing. The newly built road is really wrong."

Xu Ping said: "This kind of light rain is not a problem. I am afraid of heavy rain. If there is a mountain torrent, there is no way to go. The terrain here is like this, so this is really a headache."

Sang Yi smiled and said, "Is there any human power to resist the matter that God controls! If you build the road like this, Yun Xing, you are already the best parental official that the people of Yongzhou have met in the past years."

Xu Ping picked up the glass and said, "Drinking. It's okay if we say this by ourselves. I'm a little thick-skinned and I'll continue to praise myself. Don't say that when you go out, it's a joke."

After drinking, Sang Yi said, "What's the embarrassment about this? The people outside praise you so much. I have been there many places these days, and I don't know how many people say you are their reborn parents!"

Xu Ping just smiled and shook his head, and didn't respond.

The people of this era are simple, and officials are really good at doing something for them, that is, they are located in a remote place. Without the habit of the Han area in the Central Plains, otherwise Xu Ping's temple would have been erected.

But in Xu Ping's previous life, no matter how stingy this sounds, Xu Ping's mentality cannot be changed.

When he was gossiping, Sang Yi said, "Yunxing, I'll ask you something."

Seeing Sang Yi's serious look, Xu Ping quickly put down his wine glass and said, "We are our own people. Just say something. Why do I feel strange when you suddenly look like this?"

"I went to the sugar sugar business near Taiping County and Guwanzhai these days, and saw the way you built. I also heard Qilang say that you organized the village soldiers in the sugar sugar business, but I have been practicing. I am frank, according to my opinion, it is no problem to organize a 20,000 or 30,000 troops in a month. Do you still want to fight against Jiazhi? You must know that it is to fight against Guangyuanzhou and Jiadong, and Yongzhou has enough troops now, so what kind of army is needed?"

Xu Ping was stunned for a moment before shook his head: "You think too much, how could I have that kind of thought?"

"Why organize so many rural soldiers? Not only does it mean that money and goods are used, but it also consumes a lot of energy."

Xu Ping thought about it and said, "Go to it, let's talk about so many soldiers, it's a pity that they don't organize."

"Habit? Do you still have this habit?"

"Yes. It's a habit." Xu Ping didn't think about this question, but he just felt that things should be like this. He did it naturally. Sang Yi asked, and Xu Ping thought it seriously and could only answer it with habits.

What impressed me most in the history class in my previous life was that, as a unified dynasty, the Song Dynasty was defeated almost every battle in foreign wars, and it set a precedent for the unification of the country by other nations. This was a weak dynasty. Even if I came to this world and knew that there were many reasons for the incident, the deep-rooted impression in my previous life could not be changed. No matter what the identity was, I almost instinctively strengthened my military strength.

In the past, he was a small landlord in Zhongmu, and Xu Ping organized Zhuangke as a militia. Now when he arrived in Yongzhou, he also organized his subordinates to be a village soldier, and he also tried every means to get a team and a squad.

Nothing else is just a habit.

Xu Ping had a rural memory in his previous life. Although it was beyond recognition in his generation, the villages and towns were clearly distinguished, and militias were widely organized. It can even be said that this organization once formed an unprecedented military mobilization capability in human history, so Xu Ping naturally copied it to the sugar sugar business.

"Sang Xiucai, do you remember that I had organized a shopkeeper in Zhongmu Manor? At that time, it was to prevent thieves. Now the sugarcane family is a big business, and it is simply a mountain of gold and silver for the court. In Yongzhou, there is Jiaozhi to the south and Dali to the west, which one is not jealous? Without these rural soldiers, I can't sleep."

After hearing this, Sang Yi nodded and said, "This is a good thing. If you don't talk about it in Dali, Jiaozhi and Guangyuanzhou have been making a big fuss in the past two years, and they are always jealous of red sugar sugar business."

"I will fight anyone who makes trouble! More than 10 million jin of silver coins a year, sugar-friendly wealth is comparable to a country! Yongzhou is now more than 7,000 troops, and when will it take action to level Guangyuanzhou first!"

After half a pound of wine, Xu Ping's alcohol also came up, and he said it out of caution and carelessness. How many people in Guangyuanzhou are there? Relying on the advantage of the terrain, Zuojiang Road has calmed down. Now the one who causes trouble for Xu Ping is here.

To attack Guangyuanzhou, you must first go to Menzhou. The road there will be convenient to reach Guangyuanzhou. The Nong family has been making trouble for many years, and the Song Dynasty could not do anything to him. Later, they even left it with them. There was no way, and there were not enough people on that road to fill it in. On the contrary, Jiaozhi won once and once. If it weren't for the loss of gunpowder this time, Nongcunfu would have to be caught. It was not because they had the advantage of territoriality.

While talking about the situation in Yongzhou here, a personal soldier came to report that a young man outside came to look for Xu Ping and also brought a letter.

Xu Ping took the letter and found that it was written by Zhao Xu and Zhao Xiping, his Jinshi in the same year. Zhao Xu and Xu Ping were both first-class Jinshi and compiled a record of the same year in Xu Ping's courtyard. He had a very good relationship in the middle of the same year. Xu Ping was assigned an official position as the Tongzong of Yongzhou, while Yue Xu was the Tongzong of Fuzhou. The two of them also had letters to live in, but they did not break off contact.

The letter said that Zhao Xu was fully appointed and changed his official position to the judge of the Ministry of Revenue in the Three Departments. He was considered to have entered the central government from the local government, which was smoother than Xu Ping's career. The judge of the Ministry of Revenue was in a complicated and had higher requirements for his abilities and required him to be long-term. There were many people who worked for ten or eight years, and his official position remained unchanged. It was just that his position was promoted.

I said some gossip in the letter, and also said that the Beijing City would help Xu Ping take care of his family. Finally, it was mentioned that when he was serving as the Tongzong of Fuzhou, he discovered a young man from the Jianchang Army of Linjun. He was smart and studious since he was a child. Now he is an adult and wants to study around. He usually admires Xu Ping very much and asks himself to introduce him. He is willing to come to Yongzhou to study for Xu Ping for a while.

Xu Ping was stunned for a while when he held the letter. Although he was a first-class Jinshi in high school, he really couldn't say that his knowledge was in this era. He had knowledge in his stomach, but it was not in line with the times. He had little fans.

After thinking about it, I came from afar with my letter from the same year, and I had to see you. When I really talk about learning, I would like to think of a way to fool you.

After putting away the letter, Xu Ping asked the soldiers to take the people to the flower hall. He went back to change his clothes first. People who are engaged in Confucianism nowadays attach great importance to etiquette and will not neglect others if they are more serious.

Just after Sang Yi and his friends said that they had something to do, they went back to change into a regular shirt and robe before Xu Ping moved to the flower hall.

In front of the flower hall was a young man in his twenties, of medium figure and thin, looking so dirty that he had been rushing far away. He was holding a paper umbrella in his hand. He was already worn out and could at least block the rain. He stood there respectfully.

His body was wearing a green robe, but it was not old, but clean. I thought that in order to see Xu Ping, he had washed it and changed it to him. He was wearing a bag on his back and looked nothing on the flat ground.

This outfit, and there is not even a servant around, looks like a poor person.

Xu Ping did not dare to neglect. Young scholars could not look at dressing up. No matter how poor his family was, he might have gone to the capital next year to win the top scorer. At that time, it would be too late to find friendship.

Therefore, many young scholars in this era studied abroad. Most local officials were delicious and served, and they even gave away travel expenses when they left. This is the use of the ministerial warehouse. Anyway, they did not use the money in their pockets.

Because Xu Ping is in the south of the world, he occasionally comes to study and still comes from Fujian to get into sugar sugar business. He has never met a young man who is a regular student.

Everything is strange for the first time, and Xu Ping also attaches great importance to his first time as a teacher.

After walking forward and asking questions, Xu Ping said, "In Xu Ping, Xia Kaifeng Prefecture, I wonder where the scholar came from? Are you safe along the way?"

The man hurriedly saluted: "Student Jianchang Army Nancheng people, my father taught me to read some poetry and books since I was a child. I was lucky to be appreciated by Zhao Tongzong of Fuzhou. I often talked to my students about my husband. The husband was profound in knowledge and profound in knowledge, and the students have always admired him. This year, the great filial piety has been eliminated. My mother is lucky to be healthy. The ancients said that reading thousands of books and traveling thousands of miles. The students took the liberty to come to Yongzhou to ask for advice. I just hope that it would be a blessing to serve my side sooner or later, and that I could get a teaching of one word."

Xu Ping was stunned for a moment, thinking about how he thought that his poems and essays were only what he did during the imperial examination, and no other masterpieces were circulated. This brother didn't seem to be polite and sincere, but what he saw was that he was very knowledgeable and he really couldn't afford it.

The rain was still falling. Xu Ping saw that the broken umbrella in Li Wei's hand was already wet with his clothes because he saw that Xu Ping did not dare to hold it above his head. He hurriedly let him into the room.

After entering the room and sitting down, Xu Ping ordered the soldiers to serve tea, and the two of them chatted for a few more gossips.

Xu Ping couldn't help but feel curious and asked Li Xu: "What did Zhao Xiping say in front of you? You came here to see me from afar? I know that I really haven't done anything over the years."

Li Xu said: "The sage said it but did not write it, and the articles are just small matters. Mr. came to Lingnan to build sugar sugar affairs and practice the method of placing Ding. These are all acts to enrich the country and safeguard the people. What articles can be compared? When Zhao Tongzong talked about Mr. Zhao's youth, he once wrote a poem: 'When beggars had two wives? There were many chickens in the neighbor's house? At that time, there were Emperor Zhou, so why did they say Wei Qi?' It's a pity that people who study now regard Mencius as sages, but instead lost the original intention of the sage. Who can see Mencius clearly like Mr.?"

After hearing this, Xu Ping stayed there for a moment.

Why is he also a Jinshi now? He has read too much poetry and books, and his vision is not comparable to when he first came to this world. This thing is also poetry? It is hard to be considered as a limerick, right? Not to mention the content, even Lin Wensi didn't even look down on him back then. Jin Yong didn't know what he thought when he wrote the The Legend of the Condor Heroes. He made such a poem and it was stumped by Dali's top scholar. Isn't that a fool?

The student Xu Ping, who came, looked at him, was unreliable. But when he thought of Zhao Xu, he was knowledgeable and honest, and he didn't seem to be a random recommendation person.

There is no way to do this, so I can only blame Xu Ping for reading a few books in his previous life. I don’t know that Jin Yong’s poem was copied from others, and now the master has come to the door.

This original poem comes from notes, which tells the story of Li Taibo in the Imperial Academy. Because his knowledge is not Meng, a scholar wrote this poem to him to cheat food and drink. Sure enough, Li Taibo treats him.
