Chapter 410 Pound Persuades Wang Ping
Chapter 413 Pound Persuades Wang Ping
"My lord, don't be joking, there is no inn where Xiao Er wears such fine clothes."

Wang Ping thought that this person was joking with him, so he said immediately.

"I'm not joking. The biggest boss behind this Yingbin Building is our General Ye. In addition, most of the guests here are businessmen from other places. General Ye asked us to dress finely and provide enough clothing for foreign businessmen. respect."

"But listen to what you said, this is your first time in Chang'an, right? Then I will give you a handbook after you settle in later, so you can learn about the current situation of Chang'an and some rules in Chang'an city, so as not to make mistakes."

Xiaoer looked at Wang Ping with a smile, Wang Ping was once again proved by Xiaoer's words, Wang Ping has been shocked for the first time today, since entering Chang'an, everything made Wang Ping feel that he has fallen behind. Times, even Wang Ping was wondering whether he had been eliminated by the times.

In fact, not only Wang Ping, but also Peng De. He called himself a son of a noble family and thought he had enough arrows, but he didn't expect to be shocked by this incident in Chang'an today, and couldn't control himself for a long time.

Soon Xiao Er brought them to the room, and then Xiao Er ordered the people around him to lead Pound's servants to a warehouse and let them put the goods in the warehouse.

On the other hand, Pound lived in the same room as Wang Ping. The classical atmosphere of the room and the decoration on the table made Pound confirm that he was in Dahan at this time.

"Master, I won't say anything else. Based on what we saw today and the people who live in this inn now, I think this Ye Xiao is not an ordinary person."

It turned out that because Wang Ping was curious, he asked Xiao Er how the inn was made when he was on the road. Naturally, Xiao Er felt nothing, so he told Wang Ping that the inn was made of concrete.

As for the ingredients of the concrete, Ye Xiao came up with it based on his working experience on the construction site in the future market. Of course, the concrete here is not as good as the concrete in later generations, but it is more than enough to build a house.

"You're right, I only have eight characters for coming this way."

"I don't know which eight characters it is."

Hearing what Pang De said, Wang Ping stepped forward and asked.

"The way of a saint is nothing more than that."

Although Wang Ping came from a humble background, after following Pang De, Qiu read a lot of these eight characters, which shocked Wang Ping's heart. He did not expect Pang De to have such a high evaluation of Ye Xiao.

"Young master, now that things have happened, I feel that all the princes in the world except Ye Xiao are rubbish."

What Wang Ping said was very straightforward, but Pound didn't find it harsh when he heard it, because it was because of Wang Ping's straightforwardness that Pound appreciated it.

"Although what you said is correct, we are after all Tianshui people and heaven, and water is Cao Cao's territory after all. If we take refuge in Ye Xiao like this, will he not accept it?"

Pang De said what he was worried about, but Wang Ping suddenly laughed when he heard it. Seeing Wang Ping laughing beside him, he asked in surprise.

"Why are you laughing?"

"Master, I've followed you for so many years, and you always said that I have short-sightedness and lack of vision, but now you are short-sighted than me. If you seek refuge with Ye Xiao now, Ye Xiao will not reject you, but will open his eyes wide." On the contrary, if we don't take refuge in Ye Xiao, we will even regret it."

Wang Ping stopped laughing, looked at Pang De and said.

"Why is this?"

Pang De poured a glass of water and sat beside Wang Ping, handed him the glass, then poured himself another glass, looked at Wang Ping and asked.

"There are three reasons. First, Ye Xiao receives foreigners, but he is polite to them. It can be seen that this person is a corporal, and he does not have the short-sightedness between scholars, farmers, businessmen."

In ancient society, it can be said that there was an insurmountable gap between scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, especially between industry, commerce and scholars.

Before the ancient Sui Dynasty, if you were a farmer, as long as you studied hard and respected your parents, someone would honor you as filial piety and let you be an official. After the Sui Dynasty, as long as you worked hard to become a farming and studying family, you can also Be an official.

Merchants and craftsmen were often hereditary, and many dynasties even clearly stipulated that the sons of merchants were not allowed to be in politics. In the Ming Dynasty and even Zhu Yuanzhang, merchants were not allowed to wear silk.

This kind of class gap is something that feudal rulers can never bridge, and Ye Xiao's reception of merchants made Wang Ping see that there is no such class gap in Ye Xiao's eyes. , then nothing else is a problem.

Wang Ping took a sip of water and continued.

"Secondly, Ye Xiao managed the city of Chang'an in an orderly manner, so it can be seen that this person is an extremely rule-abiding person. In short, this person is honest and trustworthy, and a promise is worth a thousand gold. One point is that very few people can do it, and it is precisely because of this point that it can be seen that his opponents are also equal to a bowl of water."

How difficult it is to level the opponent's bowl of water, because whether it is in the entire army or in the court, there are always one or two people who are related to each other.

From Wang Ping's point of view, Ye Xiao made so many rules, especially the rules on carriages. From Wang Ping's point of view, it was aimed at those rich and noble families. In the area, the royal relatives and relatives came out of the Han Dynasty, that is Ye Xiao and his clansmen.

"Thirdly, when we came all the way, we could see people coming and going. Countless people were smiling. When we went out to eat, we also found that the business of the store was never lacking."

"I even went to ask other people after eating, and learned from them that since Ye Xiao entered Chang'an, their lives have been continuously improving, so much so that there are surplus food left at home every year."

"There are also the clothes of the common people. Although they are mainly made of coarse cloth, they have not appeared to be naked. How many people in the world are like Ye Xiao who can make the common people eat and cover their bodies with clothes?" Woolen cloth?"

"Based on the above three points, we can see that Ye Xiao is a fair, virtuous, corporal, and kind person. If we don't take refuge in such a person, wouldn't we regret it for the rest of our lives?"

After Wang Ping finished speaking, he kept silent, and Pound also kept silent after hearing Wang Ping's words. He was thinking about what Pang De said just now.

Pang De knew very well how difficult it was to get the people of a city to wear clothes and have enough food, and he also understood very well that what Wang Ping said was the truth. , Pound finally got up slowly.

"Let's go to Yuzhou after handling the goods."
