Seeing Sang Hongyang's unwillingness, Huo Guang smiled faintly and said, "Sang Danong is really a clean figure in the officialdom of the Han Dynasty. I believe he will also be a good and honest official in the future, right?"
"Haha, tell the truth!"
"I never thought about making poor people's money in the first place."
Sang Hongyang frowned and asked, "Didn't you just say that you would lend money to those poor people? Money begets money and so on? If you don't make money from the poor, whose money will you make?"
When Huo Guang heard this, he shrugged slightly and said, "Whoever has money can earn it!"
"Then what's the point of money begetting money?" Sang Hongyang asked quickly.
Huo Guang immediately laughed and said: "This is to attract others. First, it will give the people of the Han Dynasty a habit of buying a house first and paying back later. Later, it will induce the rich to borrow money and buy more expensive houses."
"As for the price, it has gone up."
"The huge profits from the real estate business will inevitably attract more businessmen to join the business. By then, more houses will be built, and those businessmen will have to lower their prices when they want to sell their houses."
"Furthermore."
"The price of a house will also vary depending on the area."
"The places I have selected have already occupied four good places near Chang'an, the southeast, northwest and northwest."
"So the house I built."
"From the beginning, it was targeted at wealthy people or officials in court."
After some conversation, Sang Hongyang also understood Huo Guang's intention.
only.
He was still mumbling to himself: "Huo Yilang, will the price be different in different regions?"
"This sounds interesting."
"Then Huo Yilang, when do you want me to advise His Majesty?"
Huo Guang shook his head at this moment and said, "This needs to be done a little later. Now His Majesty is determined to send his troops north to fight with the Xiongnu who are far away in Mobei."
"The money from the national treasury can only be used for military consumption."
"I don't recommend mentioning the rest of the things at this time. According to what I think, at least until the war is over, the treasury is depleted, and Your Majesty is not fighting, the idea of increasing taxes will not be so obvious. At that time, I will delegate the power to you. This is what the big farmer ordered."
"At that time, if you give advice, it will be the most effective thing."
Listening to Huo Guang's lucid analysis, Sang Hongyang couldn't help but feel a little surprised on his face.
The two drank and talked about things.
Maybe I drank too much fruit juice and felt a slight urge to urinate for a while.
So Huo Guang raised his hand and said to Sang Hongyang: "Sang Danong, you drank too much. I need to go to the toilet. Where is your Chang'anle toilet?"
Sang Hongyang was still thinking about what Huo Guang said before, so he casually pointed to the small courtyard behind the restaurant and said: "After leaving the box, go to the left. In that small courtyard, there is the toilet."
"Oh, okay."
After Huo Guang nodded, he left the box and went to the toilet.
To say that the only place in Chang'an happiness that is different from his happiness here is this place.
Dirty and messy.
The toilet is not even clean, it is a complete trap.
If you want to go big here, you would call it a squat, which is absolutely correct.
Like the toilet in his Leli.
Since the invention of cement, Huo Guang has hired someone to renovate it, similar to the flushing toilets in the public toilets of the school in his previous life.
This is much cleaner than the toilet in Chang'anle.
Huo Guang untied his clothes and was about to release the water comfortably.
suddenly.
A figure slipped in, stared at Huo Guang blankly, and said with a choked voice: "Sir, Leya wants to go back to Leya here, do you think it's okay?"
"I'll wipe it!" The sudden voice frightened Huo Guang and quickly lifted him up twice before tying up his clothes.
Look back.
He looked at the singing diva and suddenly felt a little annoyed.
This is the men's room!
Is this a place where you, a woman, can come in?
Huo Guang was very angry, probably because he was startled just now.
The singer who called herself Leya still said to herself: "Master, if you don't want me to come back here to have fun, how about sending Leya back to Pingyang Mansion?"
Le Ya was one of the several singers who fled from Here Music to Chang'an Le. Because of her good looks, Huo Guang initially promoted her to become Here Music's "top" singer.
Just like the so-called oiran in movies and TV shows.
such a pity!
These beautiful singers came to Chang'an for the first time and couldn't resist the temptation of prosperity and luxury.
then.
Under the instigation of Sang Hongyang, he followed several sisters and fled to Lelai, Chang'an.
But Huo Guang is kind-hearted.
Huo Guang didn't think about pursuing the affairs of these singers. Even when Princess Pingyang came last time and asked if she wanted to help "capture" these singers, Huo Guang just forgot about it.
Now?
Why are you begging yourself again and saying you want to go back?
Is it possible?
Seeing his relationship with Sang Hongyang, he was afraid that he was looking for trouble, so he begged for mercy first?
Huo Guang wasn't sure why, so he frowned and said, "This is the men's room. Why did you come in? I don't like talking here. As for you wanting to go back to Pingyang Mansion, that's impossible."
"When I was happy here, I said, I can come and go freely here."
"But if I leave, I can't let you come back."
"As for you wanting to go back to Pingyang Mansion, hey, even Princess Pingyang doesn't live there anymore, why do you want to go back?"
Although I don't know what happened to Leya in Chang'anle, which made her want to go back here.
but.
Sometimes, once you take a step forward, there is no turning back.
so.
Huo Guang mercilessly rejected Leya's request to return here.
However, when he refused, Leya knelt down on the dirty toilet floor with a bang and said, "Sir, please take Leya back!"
"In the past, in Pingyang Marquis Mansion, I only had to serve the Marquis."
"Now here, I have to serve countless men every day. If I don't serve them well, I will be beaten."
"Those nasty court officials would even ask us to dance in their houses privately."
"And what to actually do."
"Sir, you should understand that Sister Xia'er didn't want to, so she was humiliated and beaten by them. Leya can't stay in Chang'an Leli for a moment longer."
Huo Guang glanced at Le Ya, who was kneeling on the ground without feeling dirty, and just snorted lightly and said, "It's none of my business!"
The words fell.
He stepped over her and walked straight out of the toilet.
There is a difference between a kind-hearted person and an honest person!
Treating your own people well is called being kind-hearted. Seeing the pity of passers-by and giving them some money to buy naan is called kindness.
But what if she was a singer who stabbed her in the back?
If that's the slightest bit pitiful, they are all honest people and deserve to be stabbed in the back.
After returning to the box.
Huo Guang wiped his hands with a new tissue from Qingfeng Xiangyin, then smiled and said to Sang Hongyang, "I suddenly remembered something and wanted to ask Sang Danong."
Sang Hongyang also smiled and said, "What do you want, Huo Yilang?"
When Huo Guang saw this, he asked, "How did Sang Danong deceive the popular singers from my music here to come to Chang'an Le?"
After hearing this, Sang Hongyang burst into laughter and said, "Is Huo Yilang still angry about this?"
angry?
If not for meeting Leya.
He had forgotten about it and was so angry!
so!
Regarding what Sang Hongyang said, Huo Guang shook his head disdainfully and said, "What am I angry about? I'm just curious about how much money you paid."
, just deceived some of my top singers? With the respect I have for those singers here and the money I can afford, there is no reason to come to Chang'anle, which is even worse than yours! "
"Worse?" Sang Hongyang seemed a little sensitive to these two words, but thinking that the two of them would cooperate in the future, he had to say: "Forget it, let's not worry about this, let's answer your question!"
"Does Huo Yilang think respect and money are enough?"
"The human heart is always greedy."
"Greed is nothing more than money, fame, profit, power, sex, etc.!"
"The people at the bottom always think about only one thing, and that is to have enough to eat and keep warm clothes."
"The money and respect you give to those singers is nothing more than letting the people at the bottom have enough to eat and clothes to wear."
"This."
"At most, it can only earn you temporary gratitude."
"When people at the bottom have food and clothing, they will have all kinds of desires."
"When I recruited some of your top names from Chang'anle, I naturally told them some things that could arouse their desires. Even, I'm not afraid to tell you that when they came here, I didn't even ask them to pay them, so they ran away voluntarily. coming."
You didn't even say you wanted to give the money, and you just came here?
is it possible?
Huo Guang immediately didn't believe it and asked, "Sang Danong, please tell me directly. I am all ears."
See this.
Sang Hongyang, who had failed to take advantage of Huo Guang several times, immediately said proudly: "I told you that His Majesty will come to our Changanle to drink. In addition, there will be princes, generals, and people from the court." All the Gonggun princes often come to support me."
Speaking of which.
Sang Hongyang's words stopped abruptly and he said no more.
This made Huo Guang quite curious and asked, "Is it gone?"
"Gone."
Sang Hongyang nodded.
Huo Guang was immediately puzzled and asked: "What desire can this sentence arouse? Sang Danong, don't tease me!"
However.
Sang Hongyang replied with a smile: "You are a man and a champion brother. Now you are more favored by His Majesty, so naturally you have no feelings about this sentence."
"You have to think about it, where do these singers you invite come from?"
"Pingyang Houfu!"
"Where is the Pingyang Marquis Mansion? It is the place where the current queen and the young phoenix live in the forest."
"And this singer of yours comes from there."
"This means, haha, Huo Yilang, you taste it, you taste it carefully..."
Good guy, it’s true that since ancient times, I can’t keep my affection, only tricks can win people’s hearts!
A few words from Sang Hongyang.
He deceived those good-looking singers back then. What could Huo Guang do?
Huo Guang even thought about getting some anti-fraud slogans for his restaurant to warn his people not to be deceived by guys like Sang Hongyang again.
but!
Just think about it.
Not to mention Sang Hongyang's clever method, even in modern times, when information is transparent and the routines are already out of date, wouldn't it still deceive many people?
"Why!"
Thinking of this, Huo Guang couldn't help but sigh.
When Sang Hongyang saw him sighing, he asked, "What's wrong with Huo Yilang? Why does he look so sad all of a sudden?"
"No, no!" Huo Guang shook his head, and then said to Sang Hongyang, "I learned a lesson today."
later.
The two chatted for a while.
We were going to continue chatting, but for some unknown reason, a fire suddenly broke out in Chang'anle Restaurant, and there was a lot of smoke.
In the past.
You can imagine how serious a fire is for a house with this kind of wooden material structure as its main body.
So Huo Guang could only say goodbye to Sang Hongyang and returned to the restaurant.
at the same time.
He also ordered Bu San,
Pay attention to fire prevention here. After all, the structure of his Here Le Restaurant is also made of wood as the main body.
If it burns.
I'm afraid the fire will be as difficult to put out as Chang'anle.
While it was still early in the day, Huo Guang called some servants, carrying wooden barrels, to the garden where Sang had moved the animals.
here.
What was once a desert land is now run like a zoo.
Thanks to Sang Qian's contribution.
but.
For Huo Guang, the small animals in this garden are not important.
He wants it.
It was the earthen walls that supported the shed, which he had splashed with excrement on both sides.
Huo Guang ordered the servants to scrape the two sides of the earth wall with a shovel, and white mold-like objects grew up, and at the same time he scraped off the earth with it.
that's all.
After collecting ten buckets of soil, Huo Guang asked his servants to pour all the soil into jars of different sizes, fill them with water, soak them, and remove any dirt floating on the water.
All that remains to be done is to wait quietly for the night to pass.
On the second day.
Huo Guang then took out the substance and boiled it in a pot. When the water dries up, the phenomenon of nitrification will be discovered.
"Tiangong Kaiwu" says that the one that floats up is Glauber's salt, the one with long awn is Horse's salt, and the one below is Pu's salt. Purify it again and pour it into a basin. If it crystallizes into white snow over time, it will be called basin salt.
When making gunpowder, the functions of tooth salt and basin salt are the same.
This is the ancient method of making saltpetre by local methods.
certainly.
This technology definitely did not appear in the Han Dynasty, and even the concept of saltpeter did not exist yet!
so.
Huo Guang was definitely the first person in the Han Dynasty to produce saltpeter!
Now there is saltpeter.
The only difference is sulfur. To make sulfur, the method described in "Tiangong Kaiwu" is to use pyrite as the raw material, wrap the ore with coal cakes, pile them up and put them in a furnace for calcination. .
The furnace is easy to work with.
Coal cakes are also easy to make.
Is this pyrite? It’s not easy!
As long as the ores are related to "iron", under the official policy of Yantai Iron and Steel Co., Ltd., we should try to stay away from them.
otherwise.
Maybe one day I will be killed by His Majesty, and I don’t know why.
Huo Guang was thinking about these things.
Unexpectedly, Mr. and Mrs. Wei came over and stared at Huo Guang with a look of extreme dissatisfaction.
This made Huo Guang a little puzzled. He touched his face and asked, "Is there something dirty on my face?"
"No!"
Mr. Wei said loudly.
"No, no, why are you shouting so loudly!" Huo Guang frowned, then cursed: "Stop staring at me, go and stay, I'm busy."
The words fell.
He pushed Mr. and Mrs. Wei away.
To this.
Little Fatty was even more dissatisfied and said angrily: "Why did you come back alone yesterday and you didn't even ask me to come back with you, right?"
Huo Guang said calmly: "His Majesty ordered me to enter the palace, and all the eunuchs came to find him. I can't resist the order and disobey it, right?"
"Oh, right."
"Old cousin, can you think of a way to get me some pyrite?"
