Chapter 31 Our steamed buns are very soft
Li Bangyan is a traitor who is not as famous as Qin Hui, but his actions are no worse than Qin Hui.
In the second year of Jingkang, Jin soldiers surrounded Bianliang City. Li Bangyan, as the prime minister, strongly advocated ceding land and seeking peace. Li Gang and Zhong Shidao, who were in charge of war, were removed, and the defenders who dared to resist were beheaded by him as gifts to the Jin camp. In the end, the city of Bianliang was destroyed and the Northern Song Dynasty was destroyed.
It is said that Cai Jing was a treacherous minister, but when Cai Jing was the prime minister, he was not a surrender faction. He also vigorously promoted the social relief system, and at the same time restored the establishment of medicine and founded junior colleges such as mathematics, calligraphy and painting. It can be regarded as truly doing useful and practical things.
But what did Li Bangyan do? He suppressed dissidents, flattered and flattered. He knelt down on the Jin people and sought peace, and asked for peace in Bianliang City, and sent them to the Jin people at a discount.
Because of her outstanding reputation, Emperor Maode was targeted by the Jin people early on. It was Li Bangyan who lied to her and sent her to the outside of the city torture by the Jin people until the valley road broke and died of humiliation.
All kinds of disasters have emerged one after another in the dynasties, but those are called disasters, national disasters, etc. Only Jingkang of the Great Song Dynasty was called a shame!
This shame, even if it was raised a thousand years later, still made the Han men cover their faces and mouths cover their faces and mouths, and they were extremely sad.
The demise of the Song Dynasty was also internal and external troubles.
The external troubles are undoubtedly the Jin people who rose up in the white mountains and black waters, but the internal troubles are not the bandits that are rising from all over the world, but the big headscarfs that think they share the world with the Zhao family!
In the eyes of the big turbans, as long as they can maintain their wealth and glory, there is no shame in changing their masters. Every time foreign tribes invade, the Kong family, as the spiritual leader of the big turban, is the first to kneel.
Wang Xiao lowered his head and closed his eyes, hiding the flames in his heart.
He opened his eyes and looked up again, Wang Xiao's expression was as calm as water. "It's Meng Lang, don't blame Master Li."
Li Bangyan, who has a good face, stroked his long beard, "I heard that you have been here for three days in a row, so this sincerity is okay. Well, just come in."
Watching Li Bangyan walk into the house, Ximen Qing stepped forward and whispered to contempt, "This old guy is pretty good at pretending. Could it be that he came so early and lived here last night?"
Wang Xiao knew that Li Bangyan could not spend the night here, because Zhao Ji would not be able to let him go.
The reason why I came so early is nothing more than trying to show my face in front of Zhao Ji with the pillow style.
"Who knows?" Wang Xiao stepped forward. "Don't look at him, he is handsome, but he may be as handsome as Li Shishi."
Ximen Qing, who didn't know Li Bangyan's identity, subconsciously regarded him as a big family member in Bianliang City. Seeing that he could take the lead, his sense of Li Shishi instantly turned into a level where he could enter the Gu Zhibin if he had money.
When you walk into the room, you will see a beautiful screen of a lady. Just looking at it, you will know that it is a jade shelf.
There are many paintings of famous artists hanging on the walls around them, and Song kiln porcelain bottles are placed on the tables in the corner of the wall. If you can take them back, it would probably be no problem to take them for hundreds of millions of dollars.
There was a bead curtain partition on the inside of the room, and there were several table tables outside. Li Bangyan had already sat down in front of the table table at this time. The maid with a jade pendant hanging on her waist and a bead flower on her head was pouring wine for him.
"No wonder there are so many people entering the door." Ximen Qing whispered to himself, "The beads on the bead curtain are all full and round, and the size is the same. A bead must be worth several cents of money."
There is no aquaculture these days, and pearls are all relied on fishing. Being able to collect so many beads of almost the same size and color as bead curtains, this wealth can really make your eyes blind.
Wang Xiao ignored him and his eyes fell on the figure behind the pearl curtain.
The person inside was wearing a lotus-colored long skirt, with a graceful figure, and his fluffy hair was simply tied up with a jade hairpin, which looked like he had just woken up before.
Although I can't see the appearance clearly, this shady environment gives people a different kind of stimulation.
The sound of swallowing saliva came from beside him, and Wang Xiao walked away calmly, so as not to be considered as the pervert who was looking straight at him.
"Please sit down, two young men."
The person behind the pearl curtain was naturally Li Shishi. Sitting on the couch, he called Wang Xiao and the others to sit down like a crisp valley.
"I dare to ask where are the two young men? The surname Gao?"
Li Shishi, who was lying on the couch, reached out to pinch a grape from the plate. Her every move seemed lazy but had a different style.
Wang Xiao was not interested in Li Shishi, so he picked up the wine glass and gave Ximen Qing the opportunity to show off.
After waiting for a while, there was no sound around me. I looked up at me in confusion and saw that Ximen Qing looked like a pig and was almost drooling.
Wang Xiao was also puzzled. Ximen Qing was not short of beauties, so why can’t he even say something when he got here.
"We are from Shan Dongyanggu County. In Xiawusong, he is Ximen Qing. This time we came to Bianliang City to do business. The great official of Ximen has admired the Shishi girl for a long time, so we came to visit him."
Wang Xiao was preparing to use Li Shishi's hand to solve Ximen Qing, so he himself was not willing to intervene too much. The so-called introduction also mainly highlights Ximen Qing.
"Miss Shishi, we are here this time to open a steamed bun shop in Bianliang City. If Miss Shishi is interested, she can earn some money from the stock."
Ximen Qing finally came alive and hurriedly promised the benefits.
Li Shishi didn't say anything, but Li Bangyan, who was sitting opposite him, laughed loudly, "You really are a country man. Do you know that the income of a girl Shishi's tea surround and playing a song is enough for you to spend a year. A mere steamed bun is profitable for makeup, but the country man has no knowledge."
Ximen Qing's white face turned red, and he wanted to turn his back on his face as soon as he clenched his fists.
But he remembered that this was Bianliang City, not Yanggu County. The old man in front of him looked extraordinary, and maybe he was still a person. In a hurry, the bully of Yanggu County could not move forward and retreat for a moment.
Wang Xiao slowly picked up the tea cup and took a sip, exclaiming, "Good tea."
After putting down the tea bowl, he smiled calmly and said, "Food is the most important thing for people. No matter how much you make in a grain business, you will eventually make a profit. Northerners love noodles, and Bianliang City is a place where wealth gathers in the world. If you operate properly, selling steamed buns may not make a lot of money."
Li Bangyan looked at Wang Xiao carefully, and his rightful and well-founded remarks made him look up at him.
"But a lot of people buy steamed buns in Bianliang City." Li Shishi, behind the pearl curtain, asked curiously, "You have come from afar, why do you ask the people of Bianliang to buy your steamed buns? Is your steamed buns unique?"
Wang Xiao smiled and applauded, "I am worthy of being a Shishi girl, I hit the nail on the head. Our steamed buns are indeed unique."
"Sensationalism." Li Bangyan sneered disdainfully. He often does this kind of thing that relies on novel narratives to attract attention.
Wang Xiao smiled without saying a word and picked up the teacup again.
Li Shishi was instead attracted by interest and sat up from the couch and asked curiously, "Tell me how it is different from others."
Li Bangyan didn't get angry and drove Wang Xiao and the others out. Li Shishi talked happily with her. The most fundamental reason was of course not the entry fee they gave. But because Wang Xiao was so majestic, Ximen Qing was also considered a young man in Yushu.
The Song Dynasty was an era when people who really looked at their faces. People who were not good at looking were really hard to move forward here.
If Wu Dalang had come here, the disciple would never dare to collect money. Li Bangyan directly sent him to Kaifeng Prefecture for destroying trees. Li Shishi directly said that I had disappeared before I woke up.
To be honest, neither Li Shishi nor Li Bangyan were interested in the so-called steamed buns. The reason why they kept talking was simply to pass the time by bored and joking.
With their wealth, how could they be interested in steamed buns?
Wang Xiao also knew this, so he chatted and joked with each other. After all, in this era without a mobile phone or the Internet, it is boring to not have to pass the time for people who are worried about food, clothing, housing and transportation.
But some people don’t understand, such as Ximen Qing.
"Miss Shishi doesn't know anything." Ximen Qing, who came to his senses from the atmosphere that would never be seen in Yanggu County, began his peacock-like performance, trying to attract Li Shishi's attention. "Our steamed buns are different from other families."
Ximen Qing waited for Li Shishi to ask what the difference was, but after waiting for a while, no one felt uncomfortable talking.
I was secretly annoyed and saw how the master whipped you, the little girl, but I smiled and said, "Our steamed buns are all white all over, and they look like they are yellow and brown than other people. Moreover, our steamed buns have no sour taste and tastes sweet and delicious. What's important is."
Speaking of this, Ximen Qing showed a wretched smile, "Our steamed buns are very soft and they feel like they are when they pinch them."
Wang Xiao moved a little away without hesitation, and he was determined not to be considered a person who was with Ximen Qing.
Although he thought so in his heart, such words are not suitable for saying them in front of women. Perhaps Ximen Qing thought that Li Shishi was a famous skill, and saying these ambiguous words would help turn the atmosphere to the "right way".
Li Bangyan opposite looked at Ximen Qing with contempt and muttered, "It's so silly that he can't get on the table."
As for Li Shishi behind the bead curtain, he was not angry, but laughed like a bell, "Then how do you make this white, soft and delicious steamed bun?"
Ximen Qingxin said that if I knew how to do it, I would have kicked Wang Xiao away and made money by myself. Isn’t this a embarrassment for me?
Wang Xiao changed the topic, "The method of making white flour steamed buns is exclusive technology, and it cannot be circulated outside the world. If a girl Shishi wants to know, she has to spend money to buy the technology."
Li Shishi asked curiously, "How much does that cost?"
Wang Xiao looked calm and said, "It's very expensive, very expensive."
Li Shishi remained silent, Li Bangyan squinted his eyes as if he was thinking something, while Ximen Qing lowered his head and annoyed that Wang Xiao was always stealing his limelight.
After a while, Wang Xiao smiled and looked at Li Shishi, "I heard that Shishi's skills in playing the piano are the best in Bianliang. I wonder if we are lucky enough to learn about it?"
He has a good appearance, outstanding temperament and can speak. This is the common impression of Wang Xiao by Li Shishi and Li Bangyan.
As for Ximen Qing on the side, they were their comments. If Wang Xiao hadn't been there, he would have been driven away long ago.
Maqian Street is not a place where all cats and dogs can come.
Li Bangyan sneered, "There are so many people who want to listen to Shishi's playing the piano. Everyone wants to listen to it. Why can you impress Shishi's playing the piano?"
Wang Xiao was about to speak, but Ximen Qing, who felt neglected next to him, couldn't wait to jump out and show his wealth. "The young student is willing to offer thirty coins of money."
In Ximen Qing's opinion, thirty cents are already a huge sum of money, and buying a little girl in a famine year is only a price. Now I'm just listening to a song, which is a big deal. Maybe Li Shishi saw that he was so generous, so he could only kiss Xiangze.
