MTL - Wei and Jin Cooks-Chapter 766 Golden Buddha (Welcome Moyan)
Zhao Hanzhang sighed: "I'm not thick-skinned enough. After all, I only got one state, so I have to return some benefits."
Zhao Ming glanced at the boxes being loaded, nodded and said: "You want to change a state for the money of these cars? Shameless!"
After finishing speaking, he turned and left.
Zhao Hanzhang touched his nose, and hurriedly chased after him, "Uncle Ming, you can send money to His Majesty, what do you want to give Gou Xi?"
Zhao Ming pulled his sleeve back, smoothed it, and said: "The gift to His Majesty is because of a guilty conscience, why is the gift to Gou Xi? You want to rob him of Yanzhou?"
"Don't talk nonsense, it's daytime now, it's not good if someone misunderstands it," Zhao Hanzhang said: "I want to repair the relationship with Gou Xi, after all, they are officials in the same dynasty, or mutual It’s better to help each other.”
Hmph, you can’t say it during the day, but you can say it when it’s dark?
Zhao Ming signaled her to continue.
Zhao Hanzhang then said: "There is news from Youzhou and Jizhou that there are locust plagues in some counties and counties. I am worried that the locust plague will expand and it will affect Bingzhou at that time."
Zhao Ming's face was serious, and the relaxation and joy around him disappeared, and he began to emit black air, "Are you worried that Liu Yuan will send troops once the locust plague spreads to Bingzhou?"
Zhao Hanzhang nodded.
"Ordinary people and virtuous people encounter disasters, and they think about dealing with the disaster first and then fighting, but Liu Yuan is not an ordinary person, nor is he a virtuous person," Zhao Hanzhang said: "There are many internal conflicts in the Han Dynasty, and now Liu Yuan is just trying to support him. If the locust plague spreads to Bingzhou, in order not to disintegrate internally, he is likely to raise troops and transfer the conflict to the outside."
As long as there is a war, the internal contradictions of Han must be put aside first, otherwise, the locust plague is likely to make their internal contradictions get out of control.
Zhao Hanzhang said: "Once there is a war, even if Gou Xi can't trust his back, I hope he won't hold back and share some of the pressure with each other."
So taking advantage of the meeting at Jitian, she wanted to repair the relationship between the two of them, and after this difficulty was over, it was fine for them to fall out again.
Zhao Ming was speechless for a long while, then nodded to her vainly, and said: "Gifts, of course, are things that people like. Gou Xi loves beauties, and also loves gold, silver and colored glaze. You can choose from these."
Zhao Hanzhang made a decision, "Let's send Liuli."
Zhao Ming: "...Have you given him little colored glaze these years? Don't you feel neglected to give colored glaze every time?"
Zhao Hanzhang looked serious, "I don't think I'm very sincere in giving gifts."
Zhao Ming: "Does Gou Xi think so too?"
Zhao Hanzhang stopped talking immediately. If someone gave her a spear every time she gave gifts, even if the spears were different every time, she would feel that the other party was careless and perfunctory.
It would be nothing to an ordinary person, after all, she would be very happy to receive a gift, but the relationship between her and Gou Xi is not ordinary.
Most of the time, the relationship between them is a colleague with fierce competition, but a few times, they need to cooperate sincerely. In order to complete the performance, Zhao Hanzhang has to repair the rift between the two due to fierce competition.
A perfunctory gift is obviously not enough to express her sincerity.
Zhao Hanzhang reluctantly said: "Then I will give him gold!"
She said: "I remember my grandfather once had a golden Buddha. Although Gou Xi didn't believe in Buddhism, he wanted to show it off. This is gold. He must be happy to give him the golden Buddha."
It's just that my heart hurts too much. The value of that golden Buddha is comparable to the few carts she gave to the emperor.
Compared in this way, the emperor's gift is a bit cheap.
Zhao Mingdao: "Compared to the Golden Buddha, Gou Xi should love beauties more, especially beauties with knowledge."
Zhao Hanzhang waved his hand indifferently and said: "Forget it, the beauty I sent, even if it is dusty, he won't use it, so why waste people?"
Besides, Gou Xi is harsh and not a good boss, even Ming Yu has come to her, how could she be willing to send a beauty to Gou Xi?
Zhao Hanzhang made up his mind, "Just send the Golden Buddha."
Zhao Changyu's inheritance is not much, and Zhao Hanzhang basically used all the cash, and the rest, which is easy to realize, was also spent, and the rest were things that could be handed down or not easy to sell. .
Zhao Hanzhang asked someone to search the storeroom and Wang knew it. When she saw the golden Buddha held by Tinghe, she was so sad that she couldn't speak, so she hurriedly followed behind to find her daughter, "This golden Buddha was given to your grandfather by a merchant from the Western Regions. It is very valuable, when your grandfather accepted it, he said that it should be left to Erlang, and he will be in ruins in the future, breaking off a piece from this golden Buddha can support the family, you want to sell it now?"
She said: "If you need money urgently, I still have some here, Aniang. I'll give it to you. Can you give me this golden Buddha?"
Zhao Hanzhang said: "I took it as a gift. Since it belongs to Erlang, I'll write it down first. I'll give him another one when I get rich. But don't make it look like a golden Buddha. It's not easy to break, and it won't hurt if you break it. Looks good, when the time comes I will beat him into a golden tree, the leaves, fruits, branches and leaves on the tree are all made of gold, if he is really down and out, it's easy to break, no matter which part is broken, the rest will not be ugly. "
Wang: "...Who do you want to give it to?"
"Gou Xi." Zhao Hanzhang asked someone to weigh the Golden Buddha, and asked Tinghe to put it in a box after he wrote it down. She hugged Wang's shoulders and my takeaway, "Aniang, don't go with the new one, the old one Don't come, don't worry, Ting Han is already looking for gold mines. I can't make money casually with the copper in this copper mine, but it's different when I find gold mines. Let me build you a golden Buddha, and then you can put it in your room to watch, how about building a golden tree for Erlang?"
Mrs. Wang was pushed to go out, chattering endlessly: "You just coax me, sweet talk to me every time, you promised me that Erlang's marriage will be handed over to you, you must choose a good wife for him, and it turned out It’s been almost a year since you’ve all been filial piety, don’t talk about marriage, he doesn’t even see a girl, he stays in the barracks all day, thinking about military training…”
Zhao Hanzhang apologized again and again, and coaxed her into the courtyard to hand over to Aunt Qing. Just as she was about to slip away, Mrs. Wang suddenly grabbed her, squinted her eyes and said, "Not to mention Erlang, when will you and Ting Han get married?"
She looked around, pulled Zhao Hanzhang to her side, and asked in a low voice, "Tell my mother the truth, you and Ting Han's marriage has not been mentioned for a long time, is it because your fifth uncle and uncle Ming don't want you to marry outside and want to regret the marriage?" ? Or are you in love with someone else?"
"No, no, you're overthinking, Aunt," Zhao Hanzhang said hastily, "Ting Han and I are too busy. You see, he hasn't returned to the city for three days. When he returns to the city, I may have to go back to the city again." Going to Yuncheng, so busy, how can we get married?"
Mrs. Wang pursed her lips, "There are endless things in the world, and getting married doesn't take much of your time. How about this, you just nod your head and I'll do the rest. You just need to send someone out on the day you get married. How about it?" ?”
Mrs. Wang took her hand and said: "I know, you are very capable now, and you are different from other girls who care for your husband and teach your children. I just want someone close to you to share some of the burden for you. They were busy until the third watch before turning off the lights, my mother felt distressed."
She and Fu Tinghan are not married, but now Fu Tinghan has shared the burden for her. Even if they are married, it is impossible for him to do government affairs that he is not good at. She still has to deal with those matters.
Zhao Hanzhang met Wang's eyes, nodded and said: "Okay, I will listen to you, you can go to work."
When Wang heard this, she became happy, "Then I can go."
"go Go."
Ms. Wang left happily, forgetting about the Golden Buddha that she missed.
