Dad, this seems to be the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 113 Cao Bin
"My subject, Sun Yue, pay my respects to Lord Chengzhi."

"Hahaha, little Sun Yue, little prodigy, get up, get up, sit down, I've heard of you a long time ago, I didn't expect you to help me this time, by the way, I have some homemade drinks here, My kids love to drink it, you are about the same age, try it and see if you like it."

Sun Yue really felt a little flattered, and her impression of Cao Bin improved for a while. She secretly looked up at him and saw that Cao Bin was thin and lean with a small goatee. His face looked quite white, although he was 30 years old. But it still gives people the feeling of a little fresh meat. Anyway, he is handsome, and his words are very friendly.

Most people in later generations who have not learned about Song history in detail will think that Cao Bin is a military general, but in fact he is an out-and-out civil servant. It seems that there has never been a pure military general as a privy envoy in the Northern Song Dynasty. Supervisor, Jinzhou Dujian, Pingyang Supervisor, even in the future when he was in Pingshu, he was actually a supervisor. The eunuch's one.

Seeing Sun Yue happily drinking the drink and saying it was delicious sincerely, Cao Bin smiled and asked amiably, "You made the suggestion from the Military Commission?"

Sun Yue quickly said: "No, no, no, it's just an idea on paper, and it's just a start. It's up to the officials and my master to perfect it and make it a real strategy."

Cao Bin smiled and said, "You are quite modest, not bad."

Cao Bin is actually very satisfied with his new assignment. Although it is only called the Military Commission Secretary now, he knows that sooner or later it will be changed to the department hall level. The chief of this yamen is also a genuine prime minister. After this job is done, I dare not say that I will be the top leader in the future, and a second-in-command is still inevitable. Deputy Prime Minister, this is almost a sky-high pursuit for a literati.

After briefly doing some handover matters, Cao Bin said, "Is your lord free recently? I would like to treat him to a light meal and talk about the affairs of the Luoyang cement factory."

Sun Yue said with a smile: "Since it's Mr. Chengzhi's invitation, you have to be free if you don't have time. How about this? It's almost noon now. My father and son invite you to Fengle Building to try your handicrafts?"

Cao Bin laughed and said, "That's just right. Everything is good in your Fengle Building, but the food and drinks are too expensive. Usually, I don't want to eat it easily. I like your West Lake vinegar fish the most."

Sun Yue said: "But it's not time to go on business yet."

"If you have good wine and good food, you don't care about the time of day. I'm the most responsible for Chengzhi. I said it's a errand." Cao Bin pulled Sun Yue up and left, as if the glutton in his stomach had already hooked him Can't wait for the same.

When we arrived at Fengle Building, before the dishes were served, we saw Sun Chunming coming, sweating profusely. Just as Sun Yue thought, once he heard that Cao Bin personally invited him, he had to let go of the big things.

"Emissary Sun Zhi, I have admired your name for a long time."

"Don't dare, Cao Chengzhi's invitation is my blessing."

After a polite meal, the two of them finally sat down as the host and guest, and began to eat and drink.

"Sun Zhishi's cement is very good. With this magical tool, building bridges and paving roads is like a god's help, and building camps and cities is even faster. Over the barracks, they are all eagerly waiting for the goods in Sun Zhishi's hands. What's more What is rare is that Sun Zhi envoy is holding such a chicken that lays golden eggs, but he does not use it for profit, but instead uses it to supplement the lives of the soldiers, Cao admires it, come, I will respect you."

"Chengzhi is being polite. Sun is often taken care of by the two kings on weekdays. It's just a way to show his innocence. Selfishness is more than public. It's really not worthy of Chengzhi's respect. On the contrary, Gouzi will work under Chengzhi in the future. There is something wrong with this child. There are quite a few, so it is inevitable that you still need to be taken care of by Chengzhi, this bowl of wine, let me respect you."

Both of them are masters at the wine table. After a while, they talked a lot of polite words and drank half a jar of wine, but they didn't say a word of business. They just flattered each other there and boasted about business. What's the matter, when Sun Yue was almost full from eating, the two of them didn't move their chopsticks when they looked up, so they probably had to drink the moon out in such a way of drinking.

Don't these two people have to work in the afternoon?
Couldn't help it anymore, Sun Yue pointedly said: "Father, Chengzhi took over the errand of the Military Commission of the Inner Temple Squad, and will be responsible for the daily life of the soldiers on duty in the Inner Temple Squad. This time, I want to know more about you The situation of those military relatives and retired soldiers at the Luoyang Cement Plant."

Sun Chunming nodded and said, "Understood, I understand, what Chengzhi wants to know, the next official must know everything."

Cao Bin smiled wryly and said: "But I don't know anything about cement, and I don't even know the basics of businessmen. To be honest, even if you ask me, I don't know where to start. That's it, Cao here I have an unfeeling request, and I hope Brother Sun can help."

When Sun Chunming saw Cao Bin calling him a brother, he naturally beat a snake and followed the stick and said, "Brother Cao, if you have something to do, just tell him to do it. It can't be called helping."

Cao Bin smiled and didn't say anything, he recognized the two of them as brothers, and said: "That's right, before I officially take up this job, I want to go to Luo*** to have a thorough look at the scene there. Let’s talk about the situation, I wonder if Brother Sun can accompany me during his busy schedule?”

Sun Chunming wondered: "This..."

"Oh, if Brother Sun can't get away, it's okay to let others go with me."

Sun Yue stomped on Sun Chunming secretly under the table, and kept giving him winks. He knew that Sun Chunming was really busy with the affairs of the subordinates recently, but he didn't know which one was the most important. ?When can't work, this is Cao Bin, the number one general in the Northern Song Dynasty.

Cao Bin has always been praised for his good character in history, and he has always been rewarded for his kindness. He is no better than Murong Yanzhao who has not lived for a few years. He lived until the reign of Zhenzong before dying. He lived better than Zhao Guangyi They are all long, why don't you hurry up and hug such big thick legs?
Sun Chun knew what Sun Yue was thinking, Luoyang was not far away from Feng after all, and it would not take a few days to go back and forth, so he could only say, "Alright, when is Chengzhi going to leave?"

"Just three days later, I still have some business to deal with."

"Okay, then it's settled."

After finishing their business, the two finally moved their chopsticks. The West Lake vinegar fish on the table was cold, but the two of them seemed to be eating with gusto, and they continued to brag about their business.

At this moment, they heard a commotion from below. It seemed that someone was causing trouble. After all, this was their own business, so Sun Chunming pleaded guilty, and they went downstairs. A man covered in bruises and bruises was carried into the lobby of Fengle Building, where dozens of strong men were clamoring with sticks in their hands.

Sun Chunming hadn't asked about business matters for a long time, and Lao Cao asked, "What's going on?"

Lao Cao frowned and said: "It should be to find fault. The man drank too much in the building yesterday and molested the girl who served me. I had someone beat him up and throw him out."

"Hit so hard?"

"How is it possible? It's not the first time this kind of thing has happened. The brothers have measured their actions. They are all flesh wounds. They can only lie in bed for a few days at most. His injuries are definitely made up later."

Cao Bin wondered: "In Kaifeng City, there are still those blind people who dare to make trouble in Fengle Tower? Which kind of fairy is this?"

Sun Chunming smiled wryly and said, "Most likely they came for me. Recently, I was in Kaifeng Mansion to rectify the subordinate officials. Maybe I was forced to rush, and let Brother Cao see a joke."
