Chapter 258 The circle of friends has expanded again
"This is..." As the nosebleeds dripped down, Tang Xu thought of Jia Ping'an's words.
A certain body is actually weak?
He panicked.
When the body feels extremely strong, the man at this time is confident and proud.
They feel that everything is urgent, and nothing in the world can stop them.
But when he learned that his body was deficient, the loneliness, emptiness and coldness made people despair.
ah…
Tang Xu's face turned reddish, very sad.
Cheng Da knew very well that this was a difficult time for Tang Xu, and it was even considered a scandal for a man.
It's better not to be there for other people's scandals...
The second rule of the old fried dough sticks clearly records...
"Someone went to see the brothers." Cheng Da went out.
Before going out, he took a look and saw that Shao Peng didn't move, which he understood. But Jia Ping'an didn't even move, what does that mean.
Young people are always full of enthusiasm and full of hope for the world, so they never worry about anything.
But I have witnessed other people’s scandals, no, this is a scandal caused by Jia Ping’an’s medicine, why don’t you leave and wait for the food?
Cheng Da went out, Shao Peng sighed, and said in that kind of pitiful tone: "Someone said that you will have trouble going to the brothel all day long, look, now your body is weak... Hey! Go and have a look."
Tang Xu blushed, and the humiliation that a man couldn't do made him want to find a crack in the ground.
But... Men have to be tough!
He said lightly: "Someone is just worrying about Baiqi's affairs recently, and is a little restless."
Look, how perfect this explanation is.
Recently, the manpower sent by Baiqi to the foreign domain has sent back news intensively. Jia Ping'an has a lot of things to do.
Clearing up the news is a hard job, and the clerks have to distinguish the news worthy of attention from many news, and report it immediately.
Jia Pingan will conduct a review again.
"Join the army, look at this."
Meng Liang delivered a message.
Jia Ping'an glanced casually, and then couldn't take his eyes off.
According to the news, Ashina Helu is constantly merging tribes, and his strength is getting bigger and bigger.
Damn it!
This guy will rebel in the future.
Jia Pingan was melancholy, thinking how to make the court believe in him?
He dropped what he was doing and went to find Liang Jianfang.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
I don't know where the good news came from, but Liang Jianfang laughed wildly when he saw it.
"Xiao Jia!" Old Liang was quite happy to see Jia Ping'an, "Just now, the news came that more than a thousand people from Tubo came to try it out, but Longyou slapped them back, and the Tubo people lost most of them, hahahaha!"
Tuban smoked again?
Jia Pingan thought about it, and felt that it was not possible.
The only explanation is that…
"This is because Lu Dongzan can't control the people below." Liang Jianfang said disdainfully: "Look, there will be a few years of chaos in Tubo. In the past few years, the Tang Dynasty has just cleaned up the northern grasslands. If it is possible in Liaodong Do it."
Old Liang glanced at him, "Your boy will go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, so tell me, why are you here looking for this old man?"
Jia Pingan laughed dryly, "General, I just received the news that Ashina Helu's strength is growing more and more. I am worried that he will rebel."
Ashina Helu was a general who was appointed as the governor of Yaochi to take in those scattered Turkic tribes.
"Ashina Helu..." Liang Jianfang frowned, "Many people in the court say that he is docile..."
If you are meek, you can't be whipped, so as not to make Fan Jiang renounced. Jia Ping'an knows this truth.
"You shouldn't let him be in the north." Jia Pingan has never understood the intention of letting the general be in the north. If you want to use the prestige of the general, that prestige is a double-edged sword. While suppressing the north, it can also make the general breed ambition.
This is like a company in the later generations was acquired, and then the head office did not doubt the employment, and still sent the boss of the original company to manage the company, and did not interfere, and his subordinates did not move... The most terrible thing is, the acquisition agreement It didn’t say how many shares the acquirer owns…
The original boss took over the old department, and gradually became full-fledged. When I saw the contract, I went, and I didn’t care about it? Then there is nothing to say, I immediately went to the old department to discuss it, and everyone agreed that the head office is an idiot, so let's reverse it.
When the branch rebelled, the head office wanted to punish it, but found it very difficult.
In the branch, they don't mix manpower, and the management is still those people; second, the branch uses the name of the head office, the market is bigger, the capital is expanded...their strength is awesome.
Then do it?
But the head office took a look at the acquisition contract, what the hell! Te Niang, who drew up the contract?
Only the responsibilities of the head office are written on it, but what about the responsibilities and obligations of the branch offices?
Where did it go?
This is not an acquisition, it is clearly a charitable donation!
At this time, the head office became angry, so it dispatched troops to suppress the branch from the market.
This is the process and result of Ashina Helu's rebellion.
Liang Jianfang said with a smile: "Xiao Jia, the Turkic people we fought back then were terrified, and Ashina Helu was also one of the defeated generals. Don't worry, he must not dare."
Jia Pingan said sincerely: "General, people who have no long-term considerations must have near-term worries! Just ask, He Luyuan is in the north, and his subordinates are all Turks. Who will restrain him? If no one restricts him... Think about it, general. No one cares about you in Zuowuwei, you can do whatever you want, and your subordinates obey orders..."
Phew!
Jia Ping'an lowered his head, and the teacup flew over his head.
Old Liang scolded: "You **** want to say that this old man is planning to rebel? Little bastard, watch!"
Jia Ping'an was kicked out.
Liang Jianfang sat alone for a while, then went to the palace to see the emperor.
"Is there something wrong with Liang Qing?" Li Zhi is always more patient with these veterans.
"Your Majesty, Ashina Helu is now strong and strong, and I am worried..."
Li Zhi hummed, feeling that the words were familiar, "I remember who mentioned this last year?"
Liang Jianfang wanted to hide Jia Ping'an and take care of things by himself, but at this moment he could only laugh dryly: "Your Majesty, you are an old minister!"
Not right.
Li Zhi thought for a while, "It's Jia Ping'an."
Liang Jianfang, who was slapped in the face by the emperor, covered his forehead, "Hey! This old minister's memory is really getting worse."
This shameless old thing!
Li Zhi's eyelids twitched, "Someone from Baiqi is looking for news in the north, but what did he say?"
"Your Majesty is wise." Liang Jianfang said: "Jia Ping'an said that Ashina Helu is collecting tribes everywhere, and his power is huge, and he is afraid that he will not lose his tail."
"The tail is too big to lose." Li Zhi smiled, "After mentioning this matter last time, I sent someone to warn Yibi Shekui. In addition, I also sent an envoy to see He Lu. Let's wait for the news."
Later, Liang Jianfang convened a group of veterans to discuss the matter and talked about it.
"I think He Lu dare not dare." Su Dingfang was very calm.
"The old man also felt the same way. When the Turks were beaten and disabled, Yipidulu was defeated and fled. He Lu was his subordinate. After witnessing the defeat, he was very respectful to the Tang Dynasty, so His Majesty sent He Lu to Appease and take in those tribes, now that he has taken in the tribes...does he dare to show his teeth at Datang?"
Jia Pingan was in the corner, listening to the confident analysis of the veterans, feeling very helpless.
Datang is very good at writing, there is no doubt that once these veterans go out, they will be bloody. What Bpidulu is not a dish. But they have a problem, that is, they think too well of the foreign domain, that is, they are too confident.
Whether it was the Turks or the later Silla, Datang thought the situation was too good after the big victory.
Then the reality gave Datang a slap in the face, Turks and Silla, who had lost the threat, turned against Datang.
After the discussion between the veterans, Su Dingfang saw that Jia Pingan was silent in the corner, so he smiled and said, "Xiao Jia, let's talk."
Liang Jianfang gave him an appreciative look.
These veterans were able to win the emperor's attention, not just because of their ability to fight and fight, but because of their dedication to cultivating future generations and nurturing backup generals for the Tang Dynasty.
For example, Su Dingfang is currently cultivating Pei Xingjian, a famous general of the Tang Dynasty, in the left guard.
Jia Pingan got up and said: "Someone feels that... a huge force without restraint will definitely rebel!"
He looked at the stunned veterans, nodded slightly, and then retreated.
Whether it is He Lu or An Lushan, the reason for their rebellion is that they have huge power and no one restrains them.
There was a burst of laughter inside.
"Young man speaks out loud! Hahahaha!"
Several officials in the yard cast a sympathetic glance at Jia Pingan, thinking that this man was really brave, and dared to confront those old guys.
"Is this Jia Canjun?"
An official suddenly came out to say hello.
Jia Pingan cupped his hands, "Exactly."
The official has a white face and a short beard. When he smiles, he looks very kind, no, he looks gentle and elegant.
"Zuoweicang Cao Canjun Pei Xingjian met Jia Canjun."
Jia Ping'an nodded, and was about to leave when he suddenly felt something was wrong.
Jia Pingan looked at him carefully, and suddenly said with a smile: "I have heard that Su Lang will mention you, you are indeed a great talent."
It is no secret that Su Dingfang cultivated Pei Xingjian, but no one knew that this gentle-looking man would become a famous general of the Tang Dynasty who would shake the world in the future.
But this future boss is still dormant at the left guard.
Pei Xingjian knew about Jia Ping'an, so he was ready for a casual acquaintance, but he didn't expect...
"Brother Pei, why are you here? If nothing happens, go drink with someone."
Pei Xingjian is in his early thirties and looks well-proportioned, which is completely different from the civil servants of Song and Ming Dynasties. He was a little surprised by Jia Ping'an's friendly attitude, and just about to speak, a group of veterans came out.
"Observe the contract?" Su Dingfang came out first and asked, "But what's the matter with Zuo Wei?"
Pei Xingjian nodded, "The general is looking for you."
Su Dingfang saw that he and Jia Pingan were talking, and said: "Old man, go yourself, this is the first time you and Xiao Jia met, go outside, drink and drink, young people, don't imitate me, wait all day long." stay in the room."
Pei Xingjian took a look at Jia Pingan, "But a certain one hasn't asked for leave yet."
Liang Jianfang, who sent them out, scolded: "Say a fart, Lao Su said it, and whoever dares to criticize you just say it later, Lao Su will kill him."
Too ferocious to be offended.
Jia Pingan and Pei Xingjian went to Pingkangfang, thinking that going to Chang'an canteen was too high-end, and the first time was not good, so Jia Pingan chose Yanqinglou.
Standing in front of Yan Qinglou, Pei Xingjian praised: "This restaurant has heard about it, saying that it is a new stir-fried dish, but it's just that a certain person has been busy recently and has never eaten it."
Entering the lobby, Pei Xingjian went to negotiate.
"No more." The shopkeeper Gu Chen said with a wry smile, "It was fully booked before, so please come back later."
Pei Xingjian felt a little regretful, turned around and said: "Jia Canjun, there is no empty seat here, let's change to another place."
Gu Chen snorted, and then said: "Yes! Yes, yes, yes!"
Pei Xingjian was startled, turned around and said, "Why did you say no earlier? This is a dishonest person, no matter how good someone is, he won't eat it."
At this time, the people of Datang were so forthright.
Gu Chen clasped his hands behind him, "I've seen Jia Canjun." Then he said to Pei Xingjian: "The guest has misunderstood, the room is gone, but Jia Canjun is here, so someone will make room."
Then I went to a quiet room. It didn't look like a place to eat, but a place to read and think.
"This is the place where Mr. Lang is here, and he doesn't show it to others. At this time, Jia Canjun is here, and no matter what, he has to make room for it."
Pei Xingjian felt puzzled, and asked casually, "Why?"
Gu Chen laughed and said, "Without Jia Canjun, where would such a good business come from?"
Pei Xingjian was originally an extremely intelligent person, and immediately said in surprise: "Then Jia Canjun made the stir-fried vegetables?"
Jia Ping'an said very calmly: "I was poor before, so I made this to exchange money, which is ridiculous and generous."
He told his original background very frankly, and Pei Xingjian secretly admired it.
The two of them had dinner, and Pei Xingjian talked about what the bosses discussed in the morning.
"The Turks should be overwhelmed, right?" This is the consensus of the entire Tang Dynasty today.
Jia Pingan shook his head, "It's not far away."
"Why?" Pei Xingjian is now learning the art of war with Su Dingfang, but he is not as demeanor as a Confucian general in the future.
Jia Pingan looked at him, thinking of the future.
The powerful family of the Tang Dynasty is too powerful. If he wants to live a nourishing and chic life, he must expand his circle of friends.
He has been making friends with all kinds of people in silence, from the Qinghe Cui family to these old men, and he has even taken precautions to win over a group of younger brothers, such as Cao Yingxiong and others.
Where do contacts come from?
Come from your ability.
If you have no skills but want to make friends with all kinds of people, you are either humiliating yourself or being fooled by others.
Only when your strength is strong, others will respect you and make friends with you seriously...
Why?
Because others see value in you that can be used.
And so are you.
You said that some people regard money as dung and make friends with those ordinary people.
But you overlooked one point, what can he get from those people?
Superiority?
then what.
For example, if someone makes friends with a foreigner, he is regarded as a wild crane, saying that he has been far away from the world and interests, which is not elegant.
But he can get novelty, tranquility, and spiritual relief from outsiders.
These are benefits.
Human beings have always been unprofitable creatures. There are noble people, but they are rare.
The future boss in front of him is waiting for Jia Pingan's analysis.
"Simple, the greater the power of Ashina Helu, the higher the possibility of rebellion."
This is the result of analysis from the perspective of human nature.
Pei Xingjian squinted his eyes, raised his head and took a sip of his wine.
"But Ashina Helu... Isn't he afraid of being defeated again?"
The monarchs and ministers of the Tang Dynasty were so confident that they felt that He Lu would definitely not dare to rebel.
"Why do gamblers go bankrupt?" Jia Pingan said flatly: "To win money, but also to get the comfort of winning money. Why do businessmen take the risk of beheading to make money? It is also to make money, Get that kind of comfort... Ashina Helu has a large army in his hand, and more and more tribes under his command, he is a gambler and a businessman, when he is faced with the temptation to dominate, let me give you an example."
Jia Pingan raised his glass and took a sip, then said slowly: "If you are the servant of the household department, the minister is incompetent, and the entire household department is supported by you, and all the officials are fighting for you, thinking that you should serve as the minister. You can’t control the Ministry of Households, you can make the minister empty, you can use means to drive him away, you may resist this kind of temptation? Hold back for a year, two years? How about three or five years?”
This is the simplest way of thinking, but it removes the mask of hypocrisy from the root of human nature and points directly at people's hearts.
What kind of gentleman, he will show his gentle and jade-like side to you if he does not violate his core interests.
Pei Xingjian only felt that something was cracked in his mind. He had learned the art of war with Su Dingfang for a long time, but he had no chance to actually fight. At this moment, Jia Pingan analyzed the relationship between countries from the perspective of human nature, which made him suddenly enlightened.
He put down his wine glass, with joy in his eyes, and subconsciously stretched out his hand...
wipe!
Jia Pingan, who was holding his hands, felt depressed, wondering which family's rules this is?
What he doesn't know is that in this day and age, shaking hands as an expression of intimacy is the norm in aristocratic families.
"Jia Canjun's words made someone suddenly realize." Pei Xingjian couldn't hide his joy and said: "When looking at foreign feudal clans, you should not look at loyalty, but at benefits. If the temptation to rebel is strong enough, no one can be trusted!"
Thumbs up!
That's what I mean.
Jia Pingan couldn't help laughing and said, "What Brother Pei said is true."
"What do you mean by what a certain person said?" Pei Xingjian raised his glass, "Without your words, a certain person still wouldn't understand the mystery. The important thing is, these words..."
Pei Xingjian got up and said solemnly: "This is Jia Canjun's knowledge. If I hear about it today, I will definitely not let it out."
Learning is the most valuable these days, and this kind of thinking method for analyzing things is a secret of the aristocratic family.
Jia Pingan was stunned for a moment, and then said lightly: "Brother Pei hit it off right away, is Brother Pei going to have an affair with someone?"
I acted so aggressively, what would Lao Pei do?
First: be cautious, this is because Pei Xingjian was born in the Pei family in Hedong, and the children of aristocratic families have many rules and are more cautious.
Second: Thanks, this is the initial friendship.
Jia Ping'an was not in a hurry, he thought it would be 1:50.
So he calmly raised his glass to invite a drink, in a mess of free and easy.
Pei Xingjian saw that he didn't have the slightest intention of making friends with him, so he couldn't help but think of the teachings that the Pei family of Hedong gave to his children.
There are many kinds of friends. You should be cautious when making friends. Why? Because if you are not careful, the friends you make will be notorious in the future, or you will use the reputation of the Pei family and the names of the children of the Pei family to do some shameful things, which will damage the good reputation of the Pei family.
So the children of aristocratic families are very cautious in making friends, some are reserved, but most of them are worried about trouble.
He looked at Jia Pingan carefully.
There was no impurity in that smile, and the hand that raised the glass remained motionless.
What a tiger riding a hundred horses!
If this kind of people don't make friends, they will definitely regret it in the future!
Thinking of this, Pei Xingjian drank his glass in one gulp, "That's how cheeky I am."
Jia Ping'an was taken aback.
Jia Pingan said that you can use this way of thinking casually, and you can pass it on to anyone. He estimated that Pei Xingjian would decline, or say that he would not pass it on to anyone.
But he never expected that Pei Xingjian would agree to it heartily.
What about the reservedness of the children of the family?
What about the rules of the powerful family?
He glanced at Pei Xingjian, cupped his hands and said with a smile, "I've met Brother Pei."
Pei Xingjian cupped his hands and said seriously: "I have seen peace."
The two laughed at each other.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Pei Xingjian...I am really happy to be friends with a sincere person like Xiao Jia!
Jia Ping'an...My brother's circle of friends has grown a bit, congratulations!
