my brother champion

Chapter 111 Goodbye Yan Yu!time to pick cotton

Huo Guang narrowed his eyes slightly, staring at the businessman named Tian Jia in front of him fiercely, thinking, should he be arrested and interrogated?
To know!
Among the four groups of people, scholars, farmers, businessmen, and merchants, the status of merchants is the lowest.

Besides!

The relationship between Tian Jia and Zhang Tang, the imperial historian, has broken down.

Even if Huo Guang really catches him, he doesn't have any worries.After being arrested, if the person who leaked the secrets of the imperial court can be tortured out of it, maybe he can get a meritorious service from Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty!

of course.

These, just think about it.

Most of the ancient merchants were clever and cunning.If you don't have any brains, how can you make money in the feudal society where you are ashamed and drink your blood?
Look at Huo Guang's appearance!
Tian Jia already sensed that something was wrong, and immediately pretended to be nothing, laughed calmly and said: "Huo Yilang, what is there to care about, you are going to build four new cities around Chang'an City, those in the city Rich merchants know it."

"I'm also a businessman. It's not surprising to hear them say this!"

"and."

"Here you are enclosing land, digging soil, lighting fires and building furnaces, all doing strange things."

"It has long been reduced to a joke in the wealthy business circle of Chang'an City!"

In Chang'an City, those guys in the wealthy circle know about this?
Good guy!
Who the hell spread the news.

Huo Guang frowned slightly, looking at Tian Jia with some doubts in his eyes.

Although he was not sure whether what he said was true, but he also dispelled the idea of ​​arresting the other party on the spot.

He only glanced at Tian Jia twice more.

He replied indifferently: "Laugh as long as you laugh, and they will cry soon."

Tian Jia frowned slightly, and asked, "Crying? What does Huo Yilang mean?"

"This is not something you should know!" Huo Guang waved his index finger at Tian Jia, and finally made a gesture of silence.

Then!

He even called the workers to come over and blasted the Tian Jia away.

Since all the merchants in Chang'an knew what they were going to do, it was useless to grab Tian Jia and ask him.

after all.

He said that he heard the news from the wealthy merchant circle in Chang'an City.

Of course!
Huo Guangda could investigate this matter without hesitation, but the process was too time-consuming and meaningless.

Originally, building houses by enclosing land was a matter visible to the naked eye.

Paper can't contain fire.

How can we stop everyone's mouths in this regard?
What's more, he will have to find a way later to trick the rich and corrupt officials who have made money into buying houses.

Now there are wealthy business circles spreading the news to him for free, isn't it good?

And this Tianjia, after being blasted away by Huo Guang.

He glanced thoughtfully at Huo Guang's mountain-like blast furnaces, frowned slightly and thought for a long time.

finally.

Still showing a look of not understanding, after sighing, he returned to the mansion of Tatian's family in Chang'an City.

First take a shower and wash.

Subsequently.

Tian Jia got into the carriage, went to Sang Mansion, and knocked on the gate of Sang Mansion.

When the people of the Sang Mansion saw him, they said very familiarly: "My lord has already prepared food and wine in the house, and is waiting for you to come over for a gathering!"

"Well, please lead the way."

Of course Tian Jia knows the way to Sang Mansion, after all, this is not the first time he has come here.

But let the master's servant lead the way, this is out of etiquette.

The guests do as they please, and the servants should lead the way.

How can someone who is a guest in someone else's house directly barge in? Isn't that turning the guest into the master?

After hearing the words, the servants of the Sang family nodded and said, "Okay, please come with me."

then.

Under the guidance of the servants of the Sang family, Tian Jia finally met Sang Hongyang, the owner of the Sang mansion.

After Sang Hongyang saw Tian Jia, he said politely: "Oh, brother Tian, ​​you are finally here. I have been waiting here for a long time for my younger brother. I am afraid that if you don't come again, I will send someone to the Ni mansion to pick you up." .”

"Sang Shizhong has a heart." Tian Jia then clapped his hands back.

Sang Hongyang nodded, stretched out his hand to the tables and chairs beside him and said, "Brother Tian, ​​take a seat here."

Tian Jia looked at the height of the tables and chairs, frowned slightly and said, "Hey, Minister Sang, why do you use such tables and chairs in your house? Isn't this the style of your restaurant?"

At this time.

Sang Hongyang said with a smile: "Brother Tian was doing business some time ago, and he just came back recently. Of course, he doesn't know about the changes in Chang'an music customs."

"Because of the emergence of the style of restaurant tables and chairs."

"now."

"Many wealthy families in Chang'an used this kind of tables and chairs."

"It's called elegance."

Tian Jia sat on the long table and chair, although he felt a little uncomfortable, he still asked: "Since there is such a culture in Chang'an, is Sang Shizhong willing to contribute money with me to set up a shop dedicated to selling this kind of food?" Tables and chairs, you can make a lot of money!"

Say a thousand words and ten thousand!
Businessmen are always profit-oriented. When they see the rise of anything, they will first consider whether it is profitable.

Of course.

People who pursue profit will call this kind of thing a business opportunity.

And when Tian Jia said this.

Sang Hongyang was telling his maidservant: "Xiang'er, go and call your wife, younger sister and Qian'er out to eat."

"promise."

After the servant girl responded, she withdrew and called Mrs. Sang.

At this time.

Sang Hongyang turned around and said to Tian Jia: "Brother Tian doesn't know that long-legged tables and chairs have been sold by carpenters in the city. The earliest tables and chairs in the Le Restaurant here were in the carpenter's shop. Bought here."

"The carpenter's name is Li Hong, and he is the best carpenter in Chang'an City."

"If you and I still open this shop now, I'm afraid that the land and even the capital will be in vain."

"Carpenter Li Hong?" Tian Jia frowned slightly, and asked, "Where did this carpenter get the money to open a shop in Chang'an City, where every inch of land is expensive? Moreover, with their craftsman's elm heads, they can actually grasp Such a business opportunity?"

Seeing Tian Jia's skeptical expression, Sang Hongyang immediately smiled and said, "Brother Tian, ​​don't believe me, do you know who is employed in this carpenter Li Hong's shop?"

Tian Jia asked suspiciously: "Who is it?"

Sang Hongyang immediately said: "It's the young man who proposed to let the officials donate money for disaster relief, the younger brother of General Hussars, Yilang Huo Guang!"

Hear this.

"Oh." Tian Jia immediately felt relieved, and said, "It turned out to be him, so it's no wonder. This Huo Yilang is a genius. He opened a restaurant, sold tables and chairs, and toilet paper, all in Chang'an It's all the rage in the city."

"of course."

"I think the most powerful thing about this boy is turning toilet paper into book paper."

"Don't say anything else."

"Book paper is so convenient for keeping accounts."

Sang Hongyang immediately sighed, and said: "Although I don't want to admit it, but to be honest, this kid is really smart, but sometimes he is too irritating!"

Speaking of annoying.

Tian Jia thought of the fact that Huo Guang sent people to blow him away from the suburbs of the city today, and immediately nodded, agreeing with Sang Hongyang's opinion.

And in the conversation behind the two.

The servant girl finally called his wife, Sang Qian and Sang Mei over.

When the three of them were seated, they were still chatting about something interesting, which made Sang Hongyang frowned and said, "Ma'am, there are guests here! Why have you been like Qian'er and my little sister these two days?"

Mrs. Sang was scolded by her husband.

Immediately, I couldn't help but blush, and said apologetically, "Don't blame my husband, I was too obsessed with playing that card game with Qian'er and my younger sister, and I lost my sense of proportion."

"Two children fighting adults?" Sang Hongyang raised his eyebrows slightly with his left eye, and glanced at his wife.

Here.

Before Mrs. Sang could speak, Sang Mei rushed to speak for her mother: "Father, it's not that. We've been playing Warring States Kill these two days. It's fun."

"Warring States Kill, what is this?" Sang Hongyang frowned suddenly.

In an instant.

He felt that there was a problem communicating with his two children, and he couldn't understand what was said.

then.

I had to rely on Sang Qian to explain: "It's a set of cards that I asked Huo Guang to come to Huo Guang when I left the Le Restaurant last time!"

"Huh? That?"

Sang Hongyang remembered the embarrassing incident when his son asked Huo Guang for a card that night, and almost beat up Sang Qian on the spot without getting angry.

Immediately.

There was no good look on his face.

And his wife said at this time: "Yes, my husband, it's fun. After we finish eating, let's play together?"

"Ma'am, aren't you sensible!"

Sang Hongyang immediately murdered his wife, and the family seemed to have a disagreement.

At this time.

Tian Jia frowned and asked, "Sang Shizhong is talking about Huo Yilang?"

"What else is there to kill the Warring States, the card."

"Why can't I understand a word, are you talking about business?"

Sang Hongyang just waved his hand and said, "No, no, we didn't talk about anything, it's just commonplace. My wife is ignorant, so I hope Brother Tian will forgive me."

talking.

After Sang Hongyang glared at his wife, he said to Sang Qian and Sang Meiren, "Qian'er, little sister, your Uncle Tian is here, why don't you shout."

however.

Hearing this, Sang Qian squinted his gaze into the distance.

It's like I don't want to shout.

But Sang Mei, who never shouted at anyone, yelled obediently to Tian Jia at this time: "Hello, Uncle Tian!"

"Hello, hello." Tian Jia laughed.

Sang Hongyang scolded immediately: "Qian'er, why don't you shout?"

"Why should I shout?" Sang Qian looked like he had a grudge against his father.

This way.

An angry Sang Hongyang stood up and wanted to beat him up, but Tian Jia hurriedly stopped him and said, "Servant Sang, what are you doing? At your son's age, some tempers are normal, so it's okay."

"Let's talk about business!"

"A few days ago, why did you suddenly let me stare at Huo Yilang? Is there any reason?"

Sang Hongyang nodded immediately, and said, "Huo Guang has been pulling some useless slag from the ironworks recently, and he's pulling more and more. I guess he must be up to something again!"

Huo Guang is indeed doing something magical.

this point.

Tian Jia has seen it with his own eyes.

Therefore, when he heard Sang Hongyang's words, Dang even showed a look of surprise, and said: "Today I followed Huo Yilang to take a peek, and I found some good things. But I'm even more curious, did Minister Sang guess these things just because Huo Yilang took away some useless slag?"

In this regard.

"Of course!" Sang Hongyang smiled mysteriously, and said, "Sang was born in a Luoyang merchant family, and he has heard such a sentence since he was a child."

"If you want to find a toilet in a strange place, just follow the flies; if you want to pick flowers, just watch the bees; if you want to make millions, just follow the example of those who made tens of millions. To; of course, if you just want to beg for a bowl of food, then follow the refugee team!"

"What do you think, Brother Tian?"

Tian Jia nodded immediately after hearing the words, "What the ancestors summed up always makes sense."

"but."

"Tian still doesn't understand why Sang Shizhong asked me to investigate secretly. You are more familiar with Huo Yilang. If you go, won't you be able to ask questions better than me?"

Hear this question.

Sang Hongyang didn't answer, just smiled and raised the wine glass in his hand, and first had a drink with Tian Jia.

The fine wine of the Han Dynasty was brewed from coarse grains, not the alcohol mixed with water in modern technology.

and so!
Drinking it does not hurt the body, and people are not so easy to get angry.

After three glasses of wine.

Sang Hongyang then said: "I forgot to say the most important point, Brother He Tian, ​​what I said above, there is another sentence, that is, you must not let the people in front know that you are following him."

"otherwise."

"Don't talk about making money, maybe the people in front will harm you, and you have to lose money to go in."

Tian Jia nodded immediately, and said, "No wonder the family that Sang Shizhong belongs to has a thriving business!"

"To do business from generation to generation, you must manage well." Sang Hongyang smiled.

At this time.

Sang Meiren, who was eating, heard that Huo Yilang was mentioned in the chat between Sang Hongyang and Tian Jia, and asked curiously: "Father, are you talking about Huo Guang? What's so good about this bad guy?" Yes, what to learn from him?"

Listen to what your daughter said.

Sang Hongyang and Tian Jia looked at each other, and they immediately burst out laughing.

Subsequently.

Sang Hongyang glared at his daughter and said, "Little sister, don't interrupt when adults are talking."

"Oh." Sang Mei then grabbed Sang Qian's arm and said, "Come on, Dad won't let us talk, let's play cards!"

Watching a pair of children leave.

Sang Hongyang said to Tian Jia again: "Brother Tian, ​​can you tell me what you saw today?"

Tian Jia immediately replied: "Okay, but, I don't know where to start. Is it okay to say 'road building'? This kid led people to build a magical road."

Sang Hongyang showed doubts in his eyes, and said, "Building roads? Isn't he going to build a house!"

"What road to build"

"."

a few days later.

Huo Guang started from Le Restaurant normally, and was going to go outside the city to see how the foundation of the house was being built.

But before he got into the carriage, he was stopped by a woman.

Look back.

Good guy!
Huo Guang's eyeballs were almost hooked out by the opponent's proud figure.

boy!
Over time, the resistance to certain things will gradually decrease.

It's not shameful.

Because this is a biological instinct, the instinct to pass on the family line.

just.

For some reason, every time he saw this girl, four words popped up in Huo Guang's mind involuntarily.

Tolerance is a virtue!
"It's Miss Yanyu, what can I do for you?" Huo Guang asked politely, cupping his hands.

Yan Yu immediately nodded and said, "Huo Yilang, the baidiezi fruit has opened and cotton has been spit out. My father doesn't know whether to pick it at this time, so I asked you to come over."
