Champion brother? Any tokens?
As soon as the slave heard this, he knew that he was in front of a person who could not afford to offend.
then!
He replied respectfully: "Please wait a moment, I will go and ask for instructions from my husband first!"
"Okay." Huo Guang smiled and nodded.
The words fell.
The servant quickly ran back to Sang Mansion and handed the jade steel bow to Sang Hongyang.
"Mr. Lang, there is a man in front of the house who claims to be the champion brother. He said he came specially to see you. He also took out this Gangmao and asked me to hand it over to you."
Sang Hongyang was sketching on the slips at the moment. Hearing the slave's words, Sang Hongyang slowly stood up and took the piece of jade steel.
present.
His eyes lit up and he said: "Quickly, go and invite the champion brother here, don't neglect it!"
The words fell.
He called his maid Xiang'er over again and said, "Xiang'er, go to the kitchen and ask someone to prepare food. Guests are coming today."
"promise."
The servant Xiang'er followed the master's words and went to work.
Sang Hongyang looked at the jade Gangmao, sighed slowly, and said, "After waiting for a few days, it's finally here."
After finishing speaking.
Carefully holding Gangmao in his hand, he waited for the slave to welcome Huo Guang in.
Soon.
He saw the servants coming with Huo Guang, so he stepped forward and complimented him: "I have heard that General Hussar has a younger brother. Not only is his talent and intelligence different from ordinary people, but he also has the face of Duke Xu, which is enviable!"
"See you today!"
"As expected..."
Huo Guang glanced at Sang Hongyang and thought that he was too flattering!
I am only thirteen years old this year!
Eh...
He is worthy of being a political opponent who can arm-wrestle with him in the future. With his ability to flatter him, no one can harm him once Emperor Wu reigns.
To this!
Huo Guang could only smile and reply: "Don't dare, Sang Shizhong's words are too embarrassing for me."
"I'm here today to ask for something!"
"I also hope that Mr. Sang will not hesitate to help."
The words fell.
He also glanced at Sang Hongyang, but unfortunately the other party did not agree and just returned Gangmao.
Subsequently.
Sang Hongyang said with a smile on his face: "We'll talk about this later. Huo Alang, please keep Putian's friend's token and don't drop it."
"Ahem."
"Actually, if you want to visit Sang, you only need to give Huo Qiaoqi's name immediately. There is no need to add another token!"
Huo Guang put away the Gangmao that Sang Hongyang handed him, but he was thinking about how to talk to him.
Let me mention something about the restaurant.
Sang Hongyang's official position was not high.
But as a close minister of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, his rights were not small.
"Master Sang, I have a clever idea to give you, which can help..." Huo Guang thought for a while and tried to change his statement.
However.
Before he finished speaking, Sang Hongyang interrupted: "Hey, don't be in a hurry. Sit down first, and we'll talk while we eat."
Said.
Sang Hongyang took the lead and sat down on the floor, kneeling next to the food table, and motioned for Huo Guang to follow him.
In response, Huo Guang frowned.
To be honest, he doesn't like to sit on his knees. Although there is a seat for support, your knees will still hurt if you kneel in this position for a long time.
But now, aren’t we asking for help from others...
He could only do as he pleased, and he also knelt down and sat down.
After waiting for a while.
The maid heated up the food and brought it over. Sang Hongyang shouted again: "Where's the wine? I don't see any guests here!"
Huo Guang quickly waved his hand and refused: "No, no, Mr. Sang, I haven't done the crowning ceremony yet, so I can't drink."
However.
Sang Hongyang laughed and said, "I know you can't drink wine, don't worry, I've prepared fruit wine for you."
Fruit wine?
It is wine made from fruits. In ancient times, it was very suitable for those who couldn't bear to drink. I heard it tastes like juice and is not intoxicating.
have to say!
The Sang family, who was born as a businessman, is so rich that they can actually afford to invite guests to drink fruit wine.
Most people don’t have enough to eat!
After the slaves brought the fruit wine, Huo Guang drank two small bowls. It feels a bit like grape juice.
At this time.
But when he was tasting the fruit wine, Sang Hongyang suddenly asked: "Little friend, you said earlier that you wanted to ask Sang for something. What's the matter?"
"It's not a request, it should be said that it is a good thing that is beneficial to both you and me!" Huo Guang said lightly.
Hearing this, Sang Hongyang still maintained his smile and said, "Please tell me."
then.
Huo Guang told everything related to the restaurant, which was generally consistent with what Pu Tian described last time.
However.
After hearing this, Sang Hongyang frowned and sighed: "Oh, this is not good!"
Not so good?
Huo Guang raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "What does Sang Shizhong mean by this?"
Just listen to Sang Hongyang's explanation: "Huo Alang must have heard of toilet paper. Your Majesty is now only thinking about promoting toilet paper across the country to increase national fiscal revenue."
Toilet paper?
Huo Guang glanced at Sang Hongyang suspiciously, and then asked: "But I heard that the suggestion to promote toilet paper was brought up by you and the emperor!"
Sang Hongyang shook his head.
Then.
He replied in an affirmative tone: "It is indeed my suggestion, and your Majesty has already adopted my suggestion."
Adopted?
Huo Guang frowned, looked at Sang Hongyang and said, "But what does this have to do with my restaurant?"
"I didn't say it had anything to do with it!" Sang Hongyang smiled slightly and said: "The suggestion to promote toilet paper was made by me. The problem is that I can't make toilet paper and I don't know how to make toilet paper. So, now His Majesty is interested in promoting toilet paper." I’m already very dissatisfied.”
"You should be able to understand that in my current situation, I dare not make any further suggestions to His Majesty!"
"If you talk too much, trouble will come."
"Of course, if my friend can write down the recipe for making toilet paper and I present it to His Majesty, then it will be done. I can't say that Your Majesty is very happy, your suggestion is really accurate."
The previous words sounded fine to Huo Guang. But after the last sentence was spoken, everyone was stunned.
How did Sang Hongyang know he could make toilet paper?
strangeness!
Frowning, he thought for a moment.
Huo Guang suddenly spoke and asked, "Did Pu Tian tell you?"
Sang Hongyang smiled slightly.
He didn't say yes or deny it, he just held the fruit wine, tasted it carefully, and then said: "Is my fruit wine okay?"
Fruit wine?
At this time, I asked what kind of fruit juice!
Seeing him like this, Huo Guang felt disappointed for a moment and said directly: "Actually, toilet paper cannot increase the fiscal revenue by 10%. You are overestimating it."
However.
Sang Hongyang still had the same smile on his face and said calmly: "If a farmer can get a hundred yuan a day with your production method, that's really not possible."
"and!"
"Forage, tree materials and bamboo, these raw materials are not valuable either!"
"The only cost is time. After all, a production cycle takes three months, right?"
As soon as these words came out!
In an instant.
Huo Guang felt like he was being stripped naked on the street. Why, everything has been figured out by the other party.
present.
Huo Guang frowned and asked, "Did you send people to follow me a few days ago? You also went to the east of the city to investigate the place where I produce toilet paper?"
Sang Hongyang stopped smiling, looked at Huo Guang, and said calmly: "There is no way, little friend. Your toilet paper is too profitable."
"Your Majesty needs it."
"Over in Luoyang, the family I come from also wants it."
"Huo Alang, you are very smart. In order to prevent others from cheating on you, you actually arranged for each farmer to participate in only one step."
"But this method cannot prevent malicious people."
"Actually, if I, the Sang family merchant, are given a little more time, I can produce toilet paper."
Huo Guang heard this.
Frown slightly!
His eyes were fixed on Sang Hongyang at this moment. But soon, I felt relieved.
Afterwards.
He also took out a slip from his arms, showed it to Sang Hongyang, and said with a smile: "Hahaha, Sang Shizhong, I think smart people should communicate directly!"
"You want it?"
"If you want it, just say it. How will I know you want it if you don't say it?"
