Most of the restaurants outside the pass are owned by bannermen, but the dishes are inclusive of both the north and the south, and are not limited to dishes from outside the pass. [ ]. Zhao Qiang has enough money with him, and he is hosting a banquet for the deity from an unknown temple.
Naturally, he can't be stingy and shabby. Let the clerk pick up the expensive ones and don't save them for him. Anyway, these extraneous things are not earned by him, but looted from the bodies of Rakshasa and people of all races.
I don't feel distressed at all.
It was not the time to have a meal, but it was rare to meet such a generous owner. The shopkeeper was so happy that he fiddled with the abacus very quickly. A large stove was also fired in the kitchen behind, and the side dishes were stir-fried. No.
After a while, the two private rooms were filled with all kinds of dishes, and a stove was set up in the middle. Spicy mutton was stewed in the stove. After one bite, it was so fresh that it almost made people bite their tongues.
"The proprietor has spent a lot of money. If Gao is to be the proprietor in the future, please return the proprietor!"
After a few glasses of wine, Gao Shiqi's face turned slightly red, and with the door closed tightly, the heat was rising in the room, and it became a little hot before he realized it. When Zhao Qiang saw this, he hurriedly asked Ge Feihu to put the door down.
Open a crack and let some wind in. The cool breeze blows on your face, which immediately wakes you up and makes you energetic.
Eunuch Chen also became affectionate towards Zhao Qiang. He was really short-handed and soft-spoken. It turned out that Zhao Qiang was from Sauron, so Eunuch Chen always thought that this Sauron barbarian was not worth getting close to, and he just met by chance, so he couldn't say anything.
What kind of friendship? If it weren’t for the fact that Academician Gao had to go with these Sauron barbarians, he wouldn’t be willing to humble himself and lose his status. Now that we have good wine and good food, even the ignorant people know how to greet them with a smile. Here Ge
Under Zhao Qiang's instruction, Feihu toasted Wansi wine and said some words of excitement. In this way, Wansi had no choice but to give others face. You drank one glass and I drank one glass, and the atmosphere in the box immediately changed.
Get lively.
The more he drinks, the more he talks. Gao Shiqi knows that he has a drinking capacity and is definitely not someone who can drink too much. However, Zhao Qiang insists on respecting him. He also has the intention of recruiting this person, so he does as he pleases.
, let him go, but there is still a bottom line, that is, you must never let yourself get really drunk. But who in the world really knows how much wine you can drink and how drunk you need to be before you are drunk. In addition, when the atmosphere becomes lively,
Gao Shiqi was confused and didn't know how many cups he drank. He only knew that his tongue seemed to be getting bigger.
Seeing Gao Shiqi's blushing face, Zhao Qiang was secretly happy, thinking that when you are sober, you can hide yourself without revealing any flaws, but when you are drunk, you may not be able to control yourself and tell the truth after drinking.
This is not entirely true.
After another cup, Gao Shiqi took a piece of mutton and stuffed it into his mouth. After chewing a few times, the juice dripped down his chin. At this time, he didn't care about anything and just wiped it with his sleeve. Eunuch Chen on the other side was stunned.
I was so happy. How could I normally see such a famous scholar Gao lose his temper? But now I have opened my eyes. This wine is worth it, absolutely worth it!
Finally, Gao Shiqi knew that he could not drink any more. If he drank any more, he would probably fall unconscious and miss his return journey. On the pretext of going to the side to sober up, he staggered to the side. It was not too cold, so he checked into the house.
Fully opened, looking at the pedestrians coming and going on the street, he suddenly felt something and said: "Pedestrians on the street are in a hurry, but I don't know why they are in a hurry, and why are they so eclipsed?"
After hearing what he said, Zhao Qiang ignored the meat he was chewing and laughed "haha" and blurted out: "Why? It's not just for fame and fortune."
"Oh?" Gao Shiqi was startled when he heard the words, and seemed to have some realization. He turned sideways to Zhao Qiang and asked with great interest: "But I don't know what is fame and what is profit in the eyes of the proprietor?"
"What is fame and what is profit? You need to judge for yourself. The common people down here have very little knowledge. How dare you talk nonsense? I'm afraid that if you say it, you will make shopkeeper Gao laugh." Zhao Qiang put down his chopsticks and raised his head to Gao Shiqi.
Watch his expression carefully.
"Hey, why not, we are both outsiders, and it is fate that we meet each other. Wouldn't it be nice to have a drink and talk freely today?"
Gao Shiqi became more and more interested in Zhao Qiang. He thought he was a good talker and had some knowledge, and he was a rare Sauron man. He was not as good as those Han people who deceived the world and stole their reputation, so he wanted to hear what this Sauron man was like.
In fact, he didn't think this Sauron man could say anything, but even if he could say the word "fame and wealth", he still wanted to listen to his wise words.
"Since the shopkeeper wants to hear it, I'm not afraid of showing my embarrassment." Zhao Qiang stood up and said with a smile: "It's like the braid on the back of your head. You can have it trimmed for one copper, but if you spend a few more coppers, it can be wrapped in oil.
Cloth, please decorate it more and make it more beautiful, so that others can see it. This is fame and fortune. If you don’t do it for this, why do you need several copper plates to do something that can be done with one copper plate?" After a pause, he pointed to the full table again.
The person at the wine table said: "The same goes for these wines and dishes. In fact, why did I order these good wines and good dishes? It was not just to show off myself in front of shopkeeper Gao, just to make a name for myself. The shopkeeper of this restaurant has provided us with so much."
The good wine and food are just for profit. The world is so big and bustling with people, and everything they do is for fame and profit. If not for this, then why? Just like me who went all the way to the capital and stayed here with the shopkeeper.
Leaving seclusion in the cold weather is just for profit, it's just so simple, but it is also the most difficult thing in the world. Once you understand it, you will naturally figure it out."
"Once you understand it, you will naturally figure it out!"
As soon as Zhao Qiang finished speaking, he saw Gao Shiqi coming straight to the table, picking up the wine glass and toasting himself, but he said in an indifferent voice: "Everyone is bustling, it's like enjoying the prison, like climbing on the spring platform. I am alone.
It is not a sign, if the baby is not yet born, he will return home if he is riding. Everyone has more than enough, but I am the only one left behind. My heart is like a fool! It is chaotic! The common people are enlightened, but I alone am dim; the common people look at it, I am alone.
I feel dull and depressed all of a sudden. It seems to be dark and silent. Everyone has it, but I am stubborn and despicable. I am different from others, and I look to my mother for food."
Hearing these words, Zhao Qiang and Eunuch Chen felt dizzy, and they all looked at Gao Shiqi with their mouths agape. They didn’t understand what he was reciting, and what did he mean by reciting it? It was really disappointing. Didn’t he know that he was so full of joy?
Isn't there anyone in the house who is as knowledgeable as him?
Seeing Gao Shiqi read to himself meaningfully, Zhao Qiang sneered: "Shopkeeper Gao is very knowledgeable and knowledgeable, and I really admire him for hearing this." This is the truth. He really doesn't know what the man surnamed Gao is reading.
It sounds very confusing.
"Haha, I'm afraid the proprietor may be upset after hearing this. He thinks Gao is as bitter as that student."
Gao Shiqi was very happy, knowing that Zhao Qiang didn't know what he meant, so he smiled and said: "It doesn't matter if the owner of Mi doesn't understand, it's just some trivial things, but as the owner said, the word fame and fortune, once you understand it, you can
I feel relieved. After listening to the proprietor’s words, Gao was suddenly enlightened and benefited a lot. Come on, let me toast the proprietor again!”
When Gao Shiqi was about to raise his glass, he suddenly heard a noise outside. A man shouted: "You are wrong. You must know that corrupt officials are a blessing to the country! As the saying goes, corrupt officials in the country are lucky to win!"
"
As soon as this person finished speaking, someone scolded him: "Nonsense, what kind of truth is this? Corrupt officials are a disaster to the people and a disaster to the country, how can they become a blessing to the country? Are you, Pan San, deceiving us as illiterates?"
, are you deliberately fooling us?"
The man named Pan San didn't refute after hearing this, but just asked: "Then let me ask you, how can a country be established?"
The person who scolded didn't know how to answer the question, so he asked him back: "What do you think?"
Pan San chuckled: "Of course we have to use officials to govern the country. Otherwise, this country is so big. How can we govern it without officials? Is it possible to let the common people govern the common people?"
When the people next to him heard this, no one could refute Pan San, but after thinking about it carefully, what he said was wrong. The man who had just scolded Pan San immediately shouted: "What you said is certainly good, but the world's official
There are so many officials. If they are all corrupt officials, wouldn’t it be a disaster to the country? How can you say that corrupt officials are a blessing to the country?"
Pan San looked around at the crowd and said leisurely: "This is because you don't understand as well as I do. What I just meant is that to govern a country, you must use corrupt officials, and use corrupt officials to fight against corrupt officials. This is the blessing of the country."
As soon as Pan San said this, there was an uproar outside. It sounded like a lot of people were gathered around. Everyone was reprimanding Pan San for talking nonsense. Maybe because there were so many people reprimanding him, Pan San didn't dare to offend the public.
He stopped talking nonsense, and gradually, the crowd's voice became quieter, as if the people outside had dispersed.
It was the first time Gao Shiqi had heard such a strange theory, and he felt it was funny. He thought it was the son of an official from some Shengjing city who came to the restaurant with his friends and friends to have a good time. After drinking too much, he said this shocking thing.
He was so aggressive that he attracted the attention of others. He didn't take it seriously at the moment, but when he saw Zhao Qiang stopped smiling, he ordered the strong man beside him:
"Go and invite Pan San, whom I just talked about, to come over and tell me I'll buy him a drink."
