Chapter 406: Jiehe Commercial Market

In the northwest of Kaifeng Prefecture, on the Jinshui River, a small Taoist temple called "Huaxian Temple" has now become a well-known landscape. Many talented and beautiful women, officials and merchants in Kaifeng Prefecture like to take a pleasure boat and carriage and ride the warm spring breeze to visit here.

They did not come to the Taoist temple to burn incense, but to appreciate the beautiful murals in the temple and the famous calligraphy and paintings that are exhibited in the Painting Fairy Temple from time to time.

The murals in the view are all made by Wu Haogu, Mi Youren, Zhang Zeduan, Du Wenyu, and even Zhao Ji, who is a pseudonym Zhao Xiaoyi, including Taoist gods, landscape pictures of Yuntai Mountain and Yanshan, as well as beauty pictures of Wu Haogu and Zhao Ji. One of them is the oil painting version of "The Dance Picture of the Mo Niang", which is simply an artistic treasure!

The calligraphy and paintings exhibited in the Huaxian Temple are all sold by Christie's, and they are all fine products that are publicly sung and sold. They will be exhibited in the Huaxian Temple for a period of time, and then sung and sold. The place where the singing and selling is also in the Huaxian Temple.

The two "high-rise buildings" that have just stood on both sides of Huaxian Temple are also quite eye-catching, especially the four-story Republic Store Building. Although the renovation has not been completed yet, the "viewing platform" on the fourth floor has been opened.

It is a great place to enjoy the scenery of western Beijing. Invite three or five friends, bring seven or eight beautiful girls, climb the Republic Building, enjoy the beautiful scenery, and sing and dancing to help the poetry. That is so elegant and elegant!

However, the person who climbed the tower today seemed a little strange. He was not a literati, but a son of a general who was preparing to go to the northwest or Hebei army.

Because outside the Gonghe Tower and Huaxian Temple, there were more than a dozen tall and strong horses parked on the newly built gravel road. Judging from their shoulder height, you will know that they are not ordinary horses, but war horses that can be rushed to the battlefield. Moreover, the backs of these war horses are naked and not even saddles are added. This shows that they are not used to ride on the road at all.

In front of this team of war horses, there were dozens of horses, all with saddles. Some of them were hung with arrow bags, horse bows, arches and rifles on their saddles, and carved leather armor and luggage on their butts, which seemed to be a complete set of elite cavalry equipment.

Next to these horses, twenty or thirty strong men were all dressed in their clothes, sitting on the ground one by one, holding the wine and meat taken out of the Huaxian Temple, and eating and drinking in the juice.

There are also several very simple carriages, and I don’t know whether they were for the female family or used to carry luggage, so they parked at the end of the team.

It seems that some military officers were traveling far away today. Someone borrowed the Gonghe Tower to buy wine to give the military officer a farewell.

On the fourth floor of the Republic Building, a shed was set up on a platform facing the southeast. Thick brocade curtains were hung around the shed. Six people sat in the curtains, namely Wu Haogu, Wu Haowen, two Taoist men from Huaxian Temple, Guo Jing, Liu Wuji, and Mr. Murong and Zhao Zhong from the Military Academy of the Privy Council. They did not ask the singer to accompany him, but just set up a table of wine and food.

Old Man Murong took a sip of the wine fairy and looked around, "Who would have thought that this was seeing off the boss of the "Courtessy" album? If I knew, the courtesans in Kaifeng Mansion would come to accompany him."

Wu Haogu chuckled when he heard this, "Mr. Xiangshan, do you think a certain family is soaked in the powder pile every day? Some family and those courtesans are just business dealings, so you can't bother others to accompany you."

When Wu Haogu said this, Guo Jing and Liu Wuji looked at each other and were both smiling dullly.

Wu Dalang is becoming more and more hypocritical now. He is taking two beauties on the way! One is Bai Feifei, the head of Xiefanglou, and the other is his female apprentice Du Wenyu.

Now these two women are in the Huaxian Temple, and Guo Jing and Liu Wuji's wife are being entertained, but they have not come out to drink.

Brother Zhao Zhong didn't know that Wu Haogu was "hypocritical". He pointed to Wu Haogu's growing body shape and said, "Teacher, look at his body, and you know that it was not hollowed out by wine and sex."

Old man Murong smiled and said without saying a word, Wu Haogu took over the topic and said with a smile: "I am busy rushing today, so I am always simple... I don't know if I don't become an official. The welcome and sending in the officialdom is really a waste of time. I am now the confidant of the official family, and I don't know how many banquets I'll go to for dinner along the way. If I weren't simplified, I wouldn't have been to Jiehe Market for two months."

Guo Jing smiled: "Dalang, you are really diligent... But you have done a lot of things over the years. No ordinary civil servant can compare with you? It would be better to take the Jinshi exam in the next subject, so that you can become an official with dignity and avoid being said behind your back as a lucky person."

It seems that many people said that Wu Haogu is a lucky villain in Wu Haogu's Painting Immortal View and Gonghe Building, and they were heard by Guo Jing.

Wu Haogu smiled: "You can only do things in recent times. If you really pass the Jinshi and change your literary talent, you will not be so convenient."

Fortunately, I was despised by Qingliu! But I am an agent of the official family. I don’t have to be as cautious as a civil servant.

Not to mention anything else, if Wu Haogu's father kicked his feet to meet Wu Zetian tomorrow, Wu Haogu's close fortune can win the close fortune, but loyalty is greater than filial piety! But Wu Haowen has to go home honestly to be a filial son and be a filial son for three years.

Recently, Li Jie (the author of "Creating French Style")'s younger brother, Li Jian, wanted to use the excuse to build a tomb for Emperor Zhezong to seize love, but was criticized and fought. Not only did he have to continue to dress at home to pretend to be a filial son.

In addition, Wu Haogu is now holding so much money. If civil servants and officials do not impeach greed, they will have ghosts, and they will not be able to operate legally! The rule of the Song Dynasty was "Civil officials do not love money, and military generals are not afraid of death." It is not impossible for civil servants and officials to make a little profit, but they cannot make so many! However, there is no problem with military officers and officials in the near future. According to the ancestral system of the Lao Zhao family, they should be greedy.

Therefore, after Wu Haogu truly understood the rules of the game in the officialdom of the Song Dynasty, he gave up the idea of ​​becoming a civil servant.

If he really turned his articles from the closest family, businessman and military officer, he would probably immediately become a public enemy of the Shilin and the officialdom.

Wu Hao Gu paused and said, "But there should be one Jinshi. I can't do a Jinshi in the literary world. You can have one Wu Jinshi. Because I also want to set up a college in Jiehe Commercial City, it is more convenient to have a Wu Jinshi."

When Wu Haogu heard that he wanted to run academy in Jiehe, Wu Haowen immediately thought of "preaching"... No matter how you look at this, it's wrong! In the end, you won't be scolded by scholars all over the world as a dog, right?

Moreover, when Mr. Wu Haogu compared Confucianism with religion, it was a bit unrelated. Can Confucianism really spread like religion? Can academy really send a doctoral group to spread Confucianism? It seems that this has not been done from ancient times to the present.

But how did Confucianism spread?

Wu Haowen fell into deep thoughts...

"Mr. Murong," Wu Haogu pointed to the big guy Zhao Zhong, "When I start working in Jiehe Academy, you have to send me a few students to be teachers in the academy, and Brother Zhong must send me."

"My student?" Old Man Murong was stunned, "Most of them are in Liao Kingdom."

"What's wrong with the Liao Kingdom?" Wu Haogu smiled, "Isn't Jiehe Shang City just between Song and Liao Kingdom? The academy wants to teach not only Song people, but also children from aristocratic families of Liao Kingdom.

And isn’t you in charge of the Military Academy of Privy Council now? You will also go to Cangzhou to preside over the Military Academy soon, and the students of the Military Academy are also your students.”

Brother Zhao Zhong interrupted: "Shouldn't students from the Military Science Department be appointed as officials? How could they go to Jiehe to teach?"

"Appointment?" Wu Haogu smiled bitterly, but just shook his head and said nothing.

If Zhezong was still there, he would be able to be appointed as an official to the students of the Military and Education Department, and then he would be able to use them to organize the new army to attack Yanyun in the Northern Expedition.

But now, Song Huizong took the path of disturbing each other by different theories. He had to use Kaifeng generals, famous old party members and cruel officials of the new party, and had to mix them up together. The dangerous path of training military will sooner or later be ruined. Some of the students from the Military Academy, who have a way out can probably get official positions, while those who have no way out have to find a way out.

At that time, they will be sent to the Border River and stuffed them into the Doctorate Order... to be professional missionaries! This matter must be professional, and there must be an institution like the Vatican to organize them, pay them salaries, so that they can be promoted step by step. Only in this way can the Doctorate Order become a group that spreads Confucianism and defends Confucianism.

...

Ji Yi, who was finally recovered from the prime minister's mansion in Kaifeng Prefecture City (actually there was no injury), was here to go on a blind date today. The other party was the daughter of Zhang Dun's eldest son, the eldest son of the Chaofeng doctor Zhang Ze. Zhang Ze himself was not in Kaifeng Prefecture, but was an official in another place, so Zhang Dun acted as an elder and presided over the blind date.

Of course, blind dates are satisfactory. Zhang Dun's granddaughter is well-educated and dignified. Ji Yi is also a good man with a good appearance and a good appearance, and Tanhualang. Naturally, she has a crush on him!

After reading each other, Zhang Dun did not ask Ji Yi to talk about his granddaughter about his ideals in life, but instead called Ji Yi and his son Zhang Yuan into the study.

"Remember, your mission will come down tomorrow." Zhang Dun didn't say nonsense and just got on the topic. "Cangzhou Judicial Army will join the army. After the marriage is over, hurry up and go to the post."

"Okay, I will get on the road as soon as possible."

Zhang Dun touched his beard and frowned, "When you arrive in Cangzhou, my penis will come... It's time to hire a county. But you don't have to worry, Zhang Shangying, the Hebei East Road Transport Author, is my husband, and he will take care of you.
