Chapter 900: 900
Chapter 900 Chapter 900, Banquet
Xiao Mansion.
The officials sat in the living room somewhat cautiously, thinking that Xiao Yeyang was just asking them to eat, but he did not expect to call them over.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little low, there was an official who was very mindful and smiled and asked for a word: "Master Xiao, I don’t know what is installed on the windows and roof of your mansion? This winter, there is no light in the house, so it’s the same. Bright hall."
Western Liang is cold in winter. In order to prevent the cold wind from infiltrating in, heavy curtains are hung on the doors and windows. As a result, the light in the house is very dim.
Xiao Yeyang smiled and said, "That's glass."
Fan Tong’s eyes lit up: “This is what the Xiangyang Glass Factory just built outside the city produces?”
Xiao Yeyang nodded: "When you leave, you will bring a few pieces back. The glass factory hasn't been built for a long time, and there hasn't been much production. After the spring next year, there should be some for sale in the city. ."
After hearing this, everyone looked happy, and they all opened their mouths to thank them.
Fan Tong was more courageous. He stood by the window and knocked on the glass. He smiled and said, "We have a lot of wind and sand in Ganzhouwei. With this glass, we don’t need to change the window paper frequently in the future."
An official immediately followed and said: “Since Master Xiao came, our life in Ganzhouwei has improved a lot. Let alone other things, just talk about briquettes, which has benefited the people a lot.”
"Now that we have glass again, we can imagine that our days will get better and better in the future."
Others quickly met: "That's it."
Xiao Yeyang smiled and chatted with everyone. It didn't take long for Defu to walk in: "Master, the food is ready, and the wife said it's time for dinner."
Xiao Yeyang stood up and said, "Everyone, let me go to the dining room for dinner." After finishing speaking, he walked out of the house first.
The officials sat down in the dining room one by one, and soon saw the maids come in with plates of various vegetables.
Ganzhouwei is too cold in winter, and the food will soon be cold as soon as it is out of the pot. The rice flower simply does not cook and entertains the officials directly with the hot pot. This is simple and convenient, and there is no need to worry about the food being cold.
Looking at the green vegetables on the table, many officials were moved.
In Ganzhouwei, it is really difficult to eat fresh vegetables in winter.
I didn’t expect Master Xiao to value them so much. These vegetables must have been delivered from outside by the Xiao Mansion, right?
Fan Tong is a favorite. Looking at the vegetables that are still on the table, he quickly said: "Master Xiao, you are too expensive, we can just eat something."
Xiao Yeyang also knew the preciousness of fresh vegetables in his heart, and said with a smile: "I have been in Ganzhouwei for a year. I have never invited everyone to dinner because of my busy business. This is the first time I have invited everyone to the mansion. How can it be casual?"
"This is a hot pot ingredient specially prepared by my wife. Taking into account your tastes, there are two flavors of spicy and non-spicy. Let's try it with your chopsticks."
Everyone thanked them, and then they picked up the chopsticks one after another, and then they were out of control.
Dong Yuanxuan and Su Hongxin sat at a table with Xiao Yeyang. Looking at the dining room that became lively in an instant, Su Hongxin smiled and said, “It’s a good idea to sit around and eat hot pot in winter.”
Dong Yuanxuan: "This is a prerequisite, there must be enough side dishes." If they invite hot pot, it is estimated that they can only eat meat.
Su Hongxin immediately looked at Xiao Yeyang: "Where did the younger brothers and sisters get to talk about fresh vegetables like that?"
Xiao Yeyang smiled and said, “She built a warm room with glass on the Zhuangzi that was reclaimed from wasteland.”
Su Hongxin hurriedly said, "Then I will take some back to eat when I leave."
Xiao Yeyang squinted his eyes and said, “The temperature here is too low, and the yield of vegetables is not high.”
Su Hongxin stopped talking: "Then I will eat more now."
Xiao Yeyang shook his head, and when Su Hongxin and Dong Yuanxuan left, they still filled them with a basket of tomatoes, cucumbers, and eggplants.
As for the others, there are only a few pieces of glass.
That's it, everyone is quite satisfied.
After sending away the officials, Xiao Yeyang went back to the room.
When Daohua came back from her busy schedule, she saw Xiao Yeyang lying on the kang, smiling and asking, "How are your people eating well?"
Xiao Yeyang sat up and leaned on the head of the bed: "You took out so many delicious foods to entertain them, and you ate them all with greasy mouths."
Daohua smiled and sat down on the edge of the kang: "This time you entertained your colleagues and congratulated you on your promotion to the commander. I will naturally prepare more abundantly. Otherwise, wouldn't it be discrediting the palace?"
Xiao Yeyang smiled and put the rice flower in his arms, sniffing the sweet fragrance in her hair.
Daohua leaned against Xiao Yeyang's arms and smiled: "After you have done both soft and hard this time, the officials in the Weisuo should all obey you, right?"
Xiao Yeyang laughed: "If you want to continue doing what Wei is doing, it will stop."
"That's good."
Seeing Xiao Yeyang with fatigue between her eyebrows, Daohua took off her shoes and got on the kang: "You get down, I'll give you a massage."
Xiao Yeyang looked at Daohua: "You have been busy for a long time, aren't you tired?"
Ina Flower: "Compared with your running around every day, I am nothing."
Xiao Yeyang smiled and lay down on the kang.
Daohua waited for Xiao Yeyang to lie down and sat down on him and began to massage him.
Xiao Yeyang showed an expression of enjoyment on his face: "I really want to stay at home and not go out."
Daohua: "Danhe has taken it back. You should be able to rest for a while, right?"
Xiao Yeyang shook his head: "Do you remember that Ma Teng?"
Ina Flower nodded: "Remember, what happened to him?"
Xiao Yeyang: "That guy is a bit capable. I asked him to pay attention to the movements of the people in Xiliao. Not long ago, he spread the news that the people in Xiliao were also training soldiers in the past two years."
"The frontier army on Xiliang's side is scattered with sand, so the combat capability will not be mentioned. Because of the incompetence of the guards, they can't even eat food. Can such an army count on them to fight?"
Speaking, paused.
"In addition to being promoted to the commander of Ganzhouwei this time, Uncle Emperor also handed me the Tiger Talisman that can mobilize the Xiliang Border Army."
"There are four guards on the border between Xiliang and Xiliao. Uncle Huang meant that the other three guards will also be like Ganzhou Guards and establish a military center."
Daohua's face collapsed: "Then you are going to be busy again?"
Xiao Yeyang nodded helplessly: "It is convenient to build a major military town. On the other hand, I have to inspect the defense zones of the other three guards."
Daohua was silent for a moment, and said with some worry: "Didn't you say before that most of the commanders in the nine guard posts in Xiliang are all commanders. Will they cooperate with you?"
Xiao Yeyang snorted: "I have a tiger charm, and the frontier army dare not obey the order." He frowned, "If the guards don't cooperate, it is indeed a trouble."
The rations for the frontier army are provided by Wei. If Weisuo really wants to take the opportunity to be embarrassed, it will be enough for him to have a headache.
Xiao Yeyang sighed: "There are too few people in my hands. They are all people who stretch their fists when they don't agree with each other. There is a lack of counselors who can coordinate the relationship between all parties."
Ina Flower: "What should I do? Write back to Beijing and ask my grandfather and uncle to help introduce how many people?"
Xiao Yeyang thought for a moment: "It can only be this way. The education in Xiliang is too backward. Nine and a half of ten people don't know a single word. It is too difficult to find a scholar who understands the local situation. NS."
These rice flowers can't help Xiao Yeyang, and can only say: "Maybe we haven't been here for a long time. You can ask Jin Lingwei to ask more."
Xiao Yeyang had no hope: "Even if there is, it has been gathered up. I'll write to Jingcheng later."
