There was no more crickets to fight, and a bunch of old guys scattered. Luo Zhang was not in a hurry, found a stone bench and sat down. He pulled his right hand around his waist, and he pulled off a gourd, and then pulled another one from his waist. He took out a small bamboo cup from a cloth bag hanging on one side and placed it on the stone table nearby.
Opening the gourd, the aroma of wine suddenly hit his nostrils. Luo Zhang glanced at the old guys around him, smiled slightly, took the gourd and poured himself a glass of wine.
The gourd contained nothing else but Erguotou. Luo Zhang originally planned to bring it with him in case of emergencies, but he didn't expect it to be used.
Picking up the bamboo cup, Luo Zhang pretended to smell the aroma of the wine, nodded intoxicated and said: "Good wine, really good wine. It's boring to only taste this kind of wine, it's boring!"
Hua la la, a group of old guys who originally scattered around immediately surrounded Luo Zhang. Their noses were twitching, and the expressions on their faces were extremely happy. They still only smelled the fragrance. If they drank this wine, I still don’t know what these old guys will be like.
Before Luo Zhang drank, he heard the sound of gulping saliva. He felt a little funny in his heart. He finally discovered that people in the Tang Dynasty were fond of wine, and they also liked to drink strong wine. The stronger the wine, the stronger the wine. For example, Sanlejiang was the best wine in the Tang Dynasty. There were so many people who wanted to drink it, but because the price was too high, few people could afford it, so they could only drink some inferior wine. Although the price was It's cheap, but it's not strong enough, and there's nothing you can do about it.
The wine Luo Zhang brought out was not only high in alcohol content, but also had a mellow aroma that could be smelled even from afar. It was very attractive to the people of the Tang Dynasty, such as the King of Wei, Li Xiaogong, and everyone else. , not to mention these old guys who can't afford Sanlejiang on weekdays.
snort! Aren't you ignoring me? Aren't you trying to get angry with me? What's wrong? Are everyone surrounding me wanting to drink? There are no doors!
Thinking of this, Luo Zhang seemed to have not seen these old guys, and drank by himself.
Although there are no appetizers, being able to drink Erguotou in Datang is not something that everyone can enjoy, so even if you just drink it, it will be a different experience.
Seeing that Luo Zhang didn't pay attention to them at all, but just drank a glass of wine, a bunch of old guys laughed bitterly.
They deliberately ignored Luo Zhang just now, but they didn't expect retribution to come so quickly. Luo Zhang doesn't ignore them now. What should they do?
Several old guys looked at each other, and the oldest one coughed and said, "Um, sir..."
Just as the old man was about to speak, Luo Zhang interrupted: "Don't, I'm not your grown-up. Don't yell. It's not good if you yell by the wrong name!"
The old man's face turned red, and he took a deep breath and said, "Sir, it was all our fault just now. Please, sir, please don't argue with us!"
Luo Zhang rolled his eyes, glanced at the group of old guys and said, "Do you still know that I am an adult?"
"Sir, we are too angry, that's why we treat you like that, sir, who is..."
"Ahem..."
"Ahem..."
"What's wrong? Your throat doesn't feel good? If you don't feel well, go see the doctor. Why are you coughing so hard? Let him tell you what's going on?" Luo Zhang said with a straight face.
The one who just spoke was the youngest middle-aged man here. When he heard Luo Zhang's words, he looked up at the other old men. Seeing that they were silent, he gritted his teeth and said, "Sir, you told us to go find Yan." Your Excellency asked for money to repair the Dockyard Department's building, but up to now, we haven't given a penny to us. We went to the superintendent to ask for it, but they not only refused to give it, but kicked us out. What's even more annoying is that Mr. Yan passed down In other words, the Dockyard Department will be canceled from now on and let us all go home. If we want money, we won’t have it!”
Luo Zhang poured himself a glass of wine again, glanced around the old guys, and said calmly: "Is everything he said true?"
A group of old guys seemed to have been greatly wronged and were crying to their parents. They all nodded, and some of their eyes were even a little red.
It's no wonder that they have been friends with shipbuilding all their lives, but now they are told to disband and go home. This is tantamount to a thunderbolt for those who make a living by shipbuilding.
These people are so old, what can you do if you let them go home? Farming? I'm afraid that land has been abandoned for a long time and is used to build ships? They don't have the strength. They just want to live till old age here, and at least have some money to support the family.
Luo Zhang was calm on the surface, but in his heart he was already filled with rage. You Sun Deheng, you Yan Liben, and that Yan Lide, you are all good people, how dare you do this to me?
Do you think that labor and management will die in prison and not be able to get out?
Huh, brother, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you. Not only did you come out, but you're also alive and kicking. You dare to assassinate me, and you dare to attack my people. I won't let you look good, and I won't believe you!
"Okay, stop pretending to be like me, you are already a boss and you are still acting here!"
"Look at yourself in the mirror one by one and see how cowardly you are. Disband if they say they want to disband? This is the Dockyard Department, an yamen under the imperial court, not his Yan Lide's yamen. To disband, three provinces and six ministries are required to disband. The abolition document, what Yan Lide said is just to scare you and ask you to leave on your own. Once you leave, there will be no one here. Then he can write to the three provinces and six ministries to abolish this place. I don’t know that you are all so old. How can you live without any brains, and you have lost such a big age in vain!" Luo Zhang mocked unceremoniously, without caring about the age of these old guys. In the officialdom, age is not important, but it depends on who has the highest official position. , to see who gets the favor.
After being furiously criticized by Luo Zhang, all the old guys' faces turned red with embarrassment. Thinking about it carefully, what Luo Zhang said did make sense. This is the Shipyard Department, the yamen of the imperial court. Could it be that he, Yan Lide, disbanded it when he said it should be disbanded? They were also confused for a moment, but they didn't expect this, and they seemed to realize it after Luo Zhang said it.
"Okay, you don't have to worry about this matter. I will handle it. Do whatever you need to do. If I see you playing with things and losing your mind again, get out of here. Labor and management don't have idle people here. At worst, I will recruit another group. It’s just people, six-legged toads are hard to find, but there are plenty of two-legged people!" Luo Zhang waved his hand.
But Luo Zhang found that after he finished speaking, these old guys were still surrounding him and did not leave. Following their eyes, they were all staring at the wine gourd on his table, which made Luo Zhang smile bitterly. , shook his head, stood up and left.
Naturally, the wine gourd was not taken away.
After Luo Zhang walked out of the gate of the Dockyard Department and got on his horse, he couldn't help but think about how to solve this matter.
In fact, whether this matter is big or small depends on how he operates it. The easiest way is to report this matter to His Majesty. Your Majesty will not make it easy for Yan Lide if he knows about it.
But Luo Zhang didn't want to do this. If he went directly to His Majesty to solve the problem, it would make Yan Lide's life difficult, but for him, he couldn't bear to do anything. Only the interests he got were his own. Let Your Majesty handle the matter. Not getting any benefit.
Thinking of this, Luo Zhangji took it seriously and showed a smirk on his lips. If Li Xiaogong were here, he would definitely say, what evil are you holding back?
Without any delay, Luo Zhang rode directly to the general prisoner. When he appeared in front of Sun Deheng, Sun Deheng was so shocked that he pointed at Luo Zhang and said without hesitation: "Ghost!!! You...don't Come to me, I didn’t harm you!”
"boom!"
The workshop where Sun Deheng worked was not just him, there were more than a dozen people here. They were all shocked when they heard what Sun Deheng said. What did Sun Deheng mean?
Did he let someone harm Luo Zhang? But isn't Luo Zhang doing well here? Has he lost his mind and gone crazy?
Some people who understand can see the strangeness in this at a glance, and they also know very well about the grudge between Luo Zhang and Sun Deheng. If it weren't for Luo Zhang, Sun Deheng would have taken the position of a member of the Ministry of Industry. Sun Deheng held a grudge against Luo Zhang. Otherwise, Sun Deheng wouldn't have blocked Luo Zhang at the gate and ridiculed him the day Luo Zhang first arrived. Who would have thought that he would be punched away by Luo Zhang and be humiliated.
Now that Sun Deheng actually said such words, he must have done some unknown things, and now he would be having fun.
