As soon as he heard Wei Tongnian's words, Pang Gang, who was still a little worried at first, immediately relaxed. He knew that the matter was already inseparable.
Sure enough, Wei Tongnian's tone began to soften next, pointing at Pang Gang's nose and laughing and scolding: "I thought you were an honest person when we last met, but I didn't expect you to be so cunning. I haven't promised you yet.
Well, even the IOU has been handed over to me first! That’s it! Madam Rou, go and withdraw a thousand taels of silver from him, so that this shameless guy won’t say that I don’t mean what I say!”
"Yes!" came a soft reply from the side, followed by a graceful figure getting up and walking out.
Wei Tongnian's behavior will inevitably be despised by our comrade Pang Gang in his heart. It's obviously your brother who gave you money, but he still pretends to be so noble, as if he has suffered a big loss. It's so fucking hypocritical.
.
Although Pang Gang was cursing in his heart, he was also secretly happy. Since Wei Tongnian agreed to lend him money, it meant that he could use the name of the prefect as a sign to open a cement factory. It seemed that he was still gross.
Grandpa is right, the power of sugar-coated bullets is infinite.
When Pang Gang was a little distracted, Wei Tongnian's voice came from next to him, "Pang Baihu, you should also sit down. Since you are a guest from afar, there is no reason to let the guest stand."
"Thank you, Sir!" Pang Gang was not polite, looked down and sat down on a wooden bench next to him.
Probably because he saw Pang Gang eagerly giving him money, but he felt a little sorry for the sarcastic remarks just now, Wei Tongnian's expression became more relaxed, and he pointed at the twenty-eight-year-old beauty next to him and smiled at Pang Gang.
Said: "Pang Baihu, I would like to introduce to you, this is my only daughter Man Ting! Man Ting, this is Pang Gang, Pang Baihu, who defeated the Hound Tooth Mountain bandits the day before yesterday!"
Pang Gang quickly stood up, bowed his hands to Wei Man Ting and said loudly: "Pang Gang has met Miss Wei!"
Wei Man Ting quickly stood up and put her right hand on her left waist to return the gift. Her pretty face turned red and she said, "Man Ting has seen Pang Da Ren. Wish you all the best!"
Wu Jiao Pavilion was not big to begin with, but the distance became even closer after the two stood up at the same time. Pang Gang's nose had a faint and soul-stirring fragrance floating in it. This fragrance was not the fragrance of plum blossoms in full bloom, nor was it the fragrance of rouge powder.
It was the natural body fragrance of the girl. When Pang Gang saw Wei Man Ting outside the pavilion just now, he already felt that the prefect's eldest daughter was as beautiful as a flower. When he looked closer, he felt a suffocating feeling rushing over his face.
Seeing that she spoke like pearls, her voice was soft and crisp, and extremely beautiful, I took a closer look at her, and saw that she had an innocent expression and flushed cheeks. Although she was young, she had a beautiful face, an elegant demeanor, and she was serious.
She is even prettier than the people in the painting. I think our Comrade Pang Gang spends all day in a remote village like Wanghaibao. The women he has seen are either rough-handed women or village girls with sallow faces and skinny muscles. How have he ever seen this before?
Such a beauty.
"I didn't expect that Old Man Wei would have such a handsome daughter in his family. She is so handsome that she doesn't even need to put on makeup if she goes to shoot a cosmetics commercial." Pang Gang thought to himself, but today he was not here specifically to admire beauties. He took a long breath.
After calming down, they both sat down again.
At this moment, a pair of bright hands stretched out from the side and placed a cup of hot tea in front of Pang Gang. Pang Gang nodded slightly: "Thank you, Miss, for the tea!"
"You're welcome!" Wei Manting smiled shyly and sat back down.
At this time, Wei Tongnian said with a smile: "Pang Baihu, did you go to the commanding officer's office just now?"
Trying to calm down, Pang Gang answered with a straight face: "That's right, I just came out of the commanding officer's office! Your Excellency has a sharp eye, I admire you."
Wei Tongnian smiled slightly but did not answer. He thought to himself that it would be weird if you, as a member of the Wanghai Fort Hundred Household, did not go to see your immediate superior first when you came to Qingzhou Prefecture.
Seeing that Wei Tongnian didn't speak, Pang Gang was moved in his heart and said: "Beizhi came here specially to change the house. Wanghai Fort is really poor. So this time, the commander of the Song Dynasty gave Beizhi a thousand taels. Mr. Wei
You gave me another thousand taels, so that the mine and cement workshop can start construction!"
Sure enough, Wei Tongnian immediately made a sound of surprise, "Well, a mine?"
"Exactly, I discovered an iron mine in the Wanghaibao area the day before yesterday. I had no silver to start construction, so I used 30% of my shares as collateral to borrow a thousand taels of silver from the commander."
Hearing this, Wei Tongnian still didn't understand Pang Gang's purpose of coming to Qingzhou this time. It turned out that he and Commander Song had been dragged into the water by this kid. It seems that this kid is not simple, and he would actually borrow it from himself and Commander Song.
It's powerful. But it doesn't matter. Since I have taken over other people's shares, I should speak up for them. Otherwise, if people rush to give me money when they are full, isn't that a disease?
Looking at the young Baihu who was sitting upright in front of him, Wei Tongnian felt a slight movement in his heart and asked: "Pang Baihu, I heard that you did a decent job in farming at Wanghaibao. Is it true?"
Pang Gang nodded slightly, "Your Majesty, please inquire. Until last month, I had been working at Wanghai Fort to gather more than 300 refugee military households, with a total of more than 1,200 people. This year, I have collected more than 3,000 shi of grain, which is enough to fill my stomach.
"
"Oh!" Wei Tongnian couldn't help but feel moved. Since Pang Gang's military households were not under the jurisdiction of his prefect, he didn't know much about the affairs of Wanghai Fort. Now he heard that Pang Gang was able to
The ability to grow so much food in an originally barren land is truly remarkable.
"Pang Baihu, I am indeed right about the person. You did a good job at Wanghai Fort!" It is difficult to fake something that can be known at a glance. Wei Tongnian nodded happily. All officials like it.
The money is true, but they also hope to live and work in peace and contentment within their jurisdiction, so that they can get a lot of extra points in the civil service evaluation that happens every three years at least.
Hearing Wei Tongnian's praise, Pang Gang just smiled and said nothing. He would just forget about this kind of useless praise. If he took it seriously, he would be a fool.
Just when Pang Gang and Wei Tongniang were talking to each other, Rou Niang came back, and she brought back a silver note with a denomination of one thousand taels. She gently placed the bank note in front of Pang Gang and then sat back to her husband.
Next to me, Wei Manting and I were quietly listening to the conversation between the two grown men.
After Pang Gang got the banknote, he chatted with Wei Tongnian for a while and then said goodbye to Wei Tongnian. Wei Tongnian didn't stop him, he just nodded and called a servant to send Pang Gang out.
As soon as Pang Gang left, Wei Manting and Rou Niang started laughing again.
"Dad, this Pang Baihu is really interesting. He actually uses such a method to give you money. My daughter's eyes are really opened."
Wei Tongnian snorted coldly and said: "He must give away this silver. If he doesn't give it away, my father can be sure that his mine and cement workshop will be swallowed up to the ground in less than three months. You know the city
Those wealthy squires here are not vegetarians, they have very good noses."
Rou Niang always maintained respect for this savior, "It's really hard for him. He came to Wanghai Castle almost alone to start a business from scratch, but he was hampered in everything he did. It's not easy for him! Sir, can you help me?
Help him!"
Wei Tongnian smiled bitterly, "Young lady, it's not that I don't want to help him, but he is a garrison man. If my husband interferes too much in garrison matters, Commander Song will feel resentful."
"well......."
A gentle sigh came far away from the pavilion...
