Chapter 1656 Poet Anecdotes

"Hahahaha, that is really a great poet!" Lu Jiaju, Sun Mingzu, and Jia Siya were stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter at the same time. Zhang Zongchang was born as a bandit and had no culture, but he liked to be arty and made many jokes.

"I can recite this poet's works!" Sun Mingzu shook his head and recited on the spot, "If you want to ask how many women there are, I don't know how many; yesterday a child called my father, but who is his mother?... Oh, There is another song, Baotu Spring, Spring Baotu, three eyes as thick, three streams of water, light gurgle, gurgle gurgle light gurgle... Hahaha, how is it? Am I reciting it right?"

"It's really a good poem, a good poem!" After reading these two classic poems, Lu Jiaju and Jia Siya laughed so hard that they couldn't straighten up. .

In fact, Zhang Zongchang’s classic works are not limited to these. For example, there is a poem about lightning, "Suddenly saw a fire sickle in the sky, and it is suspected that the Jade Emperor wants to smoke. If the Jade Emperor does not smoke, why is there another fire sickle"; Snowy, "What things fly in the sky, piles here and there; Could it be that the Jade Emperor built a golden palace, sifting lime and sifting lime." It is really hilarious to read.

There is also a song Zhang Zongchang wrote to the Jade Emperor when he was begging for rain, "Grandpa Jade Emperor is also surnamed Zhang, why do you embarrass me, Zongchang? If it doesn't rain within three days, first smash the Dragon Emperor Temple, and then bombard your mother with cannons." This song is a bit interesting.

When they were almost laughing, Shen Long said, "Speaking of poets, when I went to Shanghai before, I met a foreigner in a foreign company and said that he liked a great patriotic poet in China. Zhuang Zhuan, he asked the Chinese present if they knew anything, and everyone said they didn’t know, so this foreigner read the poet’s works.”

"The distant Taishan shows a dark figure; the thick foundation supports the shallow high-level; if one day, someone turns the world upside down; the old tradition will inevitably suffer from landslides; this is what he saw after reading English poems. He himself translated it into Chinese; he said it was not the original text, but the meaning should be similar, and later said that this poem contained a very profound meaning, expressing his patriotic feelings of wanting to overthrow the old system and build a new country.”

"I don't understand these things, but the cultural people who drank together at that time thought this poem was very good; then it was strange, why don't we know who such a good poet is?"

"Then the foreigner began to tell anecdotes about the great poet, saying that he lived a dissolute life and had affairs with many women, but he respected women very much. Not only did he not He also paid them travel expenses and let them go; he also said that he was very filial, his mother abandoned him and remarried when he was young, and when he became a high official, he not only didn't hate his mother, but even found her on purpose, and took her and his stepfather to him Take care of your life."

"When I heard this, I began to feel that something was wrong, and then the foreigner said that the poet was actually a general, the governor of a certain province in northern China! I immediately slapped my thigh, isn't that what we are talking about in Shandong? ? This poem is actually "Looking at Mount Tai from a distance, it looks black, but the top is thinner and the bottom is thicker; if Mount Tai is turned upside down, the bottom is thinner and the top is thicker, right?"

"Pfft..." This time, Lu Jiaju directly sprayed the water out of his mouth, Sun Mingzu beat the table desperately, Jia Siya couldn't breathe from laughing, and the guests around looked at them strangely, it was really Can't figure out why they are successful like this.

However, this is not over yet, Shen Long shook his burden again, "The foreigner also showed me another poet's masterpiece he translated, ',,;, beingpoked they will jumparound', which translates into Chinese as 'Daming Lake Yanbo The vast area is vast, and the lake is full of blooming lotus flowers, and the graceful elves are constantly dancing in the lotus bushes."

"This original text is probably the song 'Daming Lake,

Ming Lake is big; there are lotus flowers in Daming Lake, and there are toads on the lotus flowers, poking and jumping up', right? "This time Lu Jiaju would rush to answer, telling the origin of this poem in no time.

"Sixth Brother, Sixth Brother, I beg you, please don't talk anymore, if you keep talking, I'll die laughing!" Jia Siya hurriedly begged for mercy.

I'm afraid it won't happen, right? I looked at your waist, but it was very good. Didn't you see what Jia Kui looked like when he came out of your room that year? Shen Long muttered secretly in his heart.

After laughing, Lu Jiaju frowned, "I said Sixth Brother, why did you go to Jinan to find Zhang Zongchang? He has a bad reputation. People in Shandong scold him. Don't go to see him." Get in trouble!"

Zhang Zongchang squeezed the people too much, and people from all over the country made up folk songs to scold him. The most famous one is the one in Guanxian County, "There are also onions and garlic, cooked in a pot by Zhang Duban; there are also onions and ginger, cooked in a pot." Zhang Zongchang, Zhang Zongchang, eat the meat first, then drink the soup."

"For business matters, Brother Miao doesn't want to see him, so I'm the only one who went? Anyway, when I was begging for food, I dealt with such people a lot, so I can handle it." Shen Long said with a smile .

In fact, it is not only a business matter, but mainly to find a way out for the Liuzi Gang; the next day, Shen Long sneaked to Laoshan and met the Liuzi Gang, "Brother Liu, when I come back from Jinan this time, you guess You can become a brigade commander!"

"It's not a good thing to be a soldier under Zhang Zongchang!" Although they are also bandits, the Liuzi Gang looks down on Zhang Zongchang as a colleague.

"I won't let you go to Jinan to serve as a soldier, and I will set aside a piece of land for you at that time, so why don't you just take care of the villagers?" Shen Long wanted Liu Zibang to go to Jinan, but not now.

Before leaving, Liu Zibang wanted to give him money. He knew that Zhang Zongchang was greedy for money and wanted to get an official position for himself. It would be impossible without spending money, but Shen Long didn't want it. We still need it for our business?

After arriving in Jinan, I went to Miao Handong's place first as usual, and then went to see their Sanyuan dyeing factory with brothers Zhao Dongchu and Zhao Dongjun.

When I returned to Miao's house in the evening, Miao Handong's face was a bit uneasy, "Sixth brother, if you didn't know your temperament, you would definitely not do bad things; otherwise, I would definitely not do this for you. It's already settled, you can go to the mansion to see him tomorrow! He will hold a meeting at home tomorrow, sing opera and play cards, what is the most useful thing to tell him at this time!"

So, the next day, Shen Long went to Zhang Zongchang's mansion, and with Miao Handong's help, he soon met the poet.
