Seeing that his father was planning on him, Huo Guang immediately said: "No, Dad, you were right just now. What I said was all bragging about myself. In fact, I have no money and I have not done any successful business. It’s all my fantasy.”
"Um."
"Right, that is it."
Of course you have to spend your own money to buy clothes for your wife!
Why should Huo Guang, as a son, suffer this loss?
When Huo Zhongru saw his son like this, he immediately cursed and said, "You little white-eyed wolf, your father has worked so hard to raise you so big, and this is how you repay him?"
For dad’s rant.
Huo Guang put his hands behind his back and whistled, completely ignoring it.
At this moment.
The elder brother Huo Qubing called Sun Ying over and introduced him to the two elders: "Dad, Mother Huo, this is the wife I want to marry, Sun Ying."
The words fell.
He hurriedly said to Sun Ying: "This is my father, and this is Huo Niang, call me."
Sun Ying called her parents at Huo Qubing's request.
Mrs. Huo saw that Sun Ying was so well-behaved, so she smiled and said, "Okay, after the wedding, you will be the wife who is cured of the disease, and you will also be our Huo Guang's sister-in-law. We are all a family."
"Um."
Sun Ying snorted like a mosquito, and instantly her face turned red to the depths of her neck.
When the two elders first came to Chang'an, Huo Guang gave them a simple welcome banquet.
At the banquet.
Naturally, there is only Huo Guang’s family.
Because he took leave to go home to pick up his parents in Chang'an these days, Huo Qubing was delayed a lot of time. There was no training for new recruits in the army, so after dinner, I was anxious to go back to the army to check on the situation, so I went back to the army in advance and asked Huo Guang and Sun Ying to accompany their parents to visit Chang'an.
Chang'an is not big.
Even a little small.
after all.
Nearly half of the city's area is occupied by His Majesty's three behemoth palaces.
It's precisely because it's small.
So Huo Guang really didn't know where to go shopping with his two elders at the moment.
At this moment.
Huo Guang had no choice but to ask first: "Mom, Dad, where do you want to visit? Chang'an is such a big place, and the bustling place is actually just this one street."
Isn’t Chang’an prosperous?
So prosperous!
Compared to the small and rundown place in Pingyang County.
Chang'an City was extremely prosperous, but Huo Guang was a time traveler after all. From the perspective of someone who had been there, all the prosperity here was nothing more than this.
When Mrs. Huo heard what her son Huo Guang said, she did not reply to Huo Guang immediately. Instead, she asked Sun Ying first, "Where do you want to go?".
Sun Ying shook his head and said awkwardly: "I don't often live in Chang'an. I used to accompany the general in training and take care of his daily life."
"Huo Niang."
"For this, you'd better go to Huo Guang, he's much more familiar with me than I am."
See this.
Mrs. Huo then turned her gaze to Huo Guang and said, "Guang'er, then you can arrange where we go!"
Good guy.
The ball was kicked around and finally came back to him.
but.
This is also something that can't be helped.
Seeing this, Huo Guang could only take the two Mrs. Huo to visit this shop and then that shop.
at last.
They even went shopping and came to a jewelry store. Huo Guang led the two Madams Huo to look inside the jewelry store.
A woman.
Naturally interested in jewelry.
and.
Mrs. Huo deliberately wanted to give Sun Ying something as a meeting gift, thinking that it could bring her closer to him.
then.
She began to pick up those expensive but beautiful hairpins.
only...
The consumption level in Chang'an City is obviously beyond Mrs. Huo's understanding.
After she selected the jewelry items and Sun Ying said she liked them, when she paid, she was told that it cost 18,800 yuan.
This made Mrs. Huo look embarrassed.
A piece of jewelry from Chang'an City is actually worth Huo Zhongru's annual salary.
How can she take advantage of this?
Sun Ying was very smart and saw the embarrassment on Mrs. Huo's face, and immediately said: "Forget it, Madam Huo, actually I don't like this hairpin very much. There is no need to buy such an expensive thing."
When Mrs. Huo saw Sun Ying talking like this, the awkward look on her face suddenly disappeared.
immediately.
He wanted to hand the hairpin back to the person in the jewelry shop.
But Huo Guang suddenly stopped and said, "Mom, if you want it, just take it. You don't need to pay for anything here!"
As soon as these words came out.
Mrs. Huo was surprised and said, "Guang'er, what nonsense are you talking about? How can you buy something without paying for it!"
Sun Ying also didn't understand.
But she knew obviously more than Mrs. Huo, so she didn't speak, but quietly watched what Huo Guang had to say.
pity...
It was obvious that the people in the store didn't know the champion brother-in-law very well.
After hearing what Huo Guang said, he immediately said: "Hey, this can't be done. You have to pay for everything in the shop!"
Huo Guang glanced at the handyman cleaning the shop and asked immediately, "When did you come here to work?"
"This month!" the handyman said immediately.
Huo Guang nodded and said, "Then it's normal that you don't know me, but Liu Lingling knows, right?"
"Ah, I know, she is the shopkeeper in charge of Qingfeng Xiangyin's shop, but she is not in charge of our jewelry shop." The handyman said blankly.
Huo Guang shook his head lightly and said, "I know Liu Lingling is not responsible here. The main reason for mentioning her is because I really can't remember the names of her other two sisters."
Huo Guang could remember Liu Lingling's name mainly because Mr. Wei often took her to play with her.
It’s been a long time.
Naturally, I knew the name.
At that time.
Huo Guang originally planned to send the three sisters who were too young back to Princess Pingyang.
Later, Wei and his wife stayed because they begged for mercy.
But too young in age.
Huo Guang had no intention of letting them work as singers, which was not good for their reputation. He also put Wei and his wife in charge of paper towels, jewelry, clothing, etc. for the shop that Huo Guang had opened.
This restaurant is very profitable.
But to build houses outside the city, make cement, etc., the money spent on hiring workers alone is an astronomical figure.
and.
Huo Guang was very generous to his employees.
Although it is said that all businessmen cannot get rich without women, Huo Guang really can't do the kind of fat head and big ears that he feeds himself. He also said nonsense that he did not raise wages for workers because he was afraid that he would be too strong and overwhelm other businessmen.
so.
A series of reasons are superimposed.
The money earned from this Le Restaurant alone is far from being able to support Huo Guang's financial consumption.
then.
In private.
On the streets of Chang'an City, the popular commercial shops that have suddenly popped up in the past two years are actually all created by Huo Guang.
The employee who was looking after the jewelry shop suddenly thought of something when he heard Huo Guang calling himself Yilang and what he had mentioned before. His eyes lit up and he asked in a low voice, "Are you Huo Guang, the champion brother-in-law?"
"Um."
Huo Guang nodded.
The employee immediately said, "I'm sorry for my ignorance, but your family will take the jewelry in this shop for free."
"but..."
"I really don't know how I should explain to the shopkeeper when I reconcile the accounts at night?"
Huo Guang frowned and said, "Can't you just say I took it away?"
But the employee immediately said with a wry smile: "The rules of this store are that the accounts must be kept privately. Every jewelry is numbered before it is sold. Today's sales will be reconciled in the evening. I'm afraid the private account won't be able to be used!"
Upon hearing this.
Huo Guang had a headache because this was a rule he had set.
so.
You can't entirely blame the employee.
The so-called smuggling is what he demands. No matter how much is sold during the day, the total amount of money must be consistent when the accounts are reconciled at night. Whether it was lost, missed, missing, or the shopkeeper gave it away as a favor, anyway, you must receive the money you deserve.
If less.
The shopkeeper will have to make up for it.
have no choice.
Huo Guang could only sigh and said: "Forget it, let's give you the money!"
Spare a big circle.
Huo Guang still could only choose to pay in "cash".
There's nothing you can do about it, rules are harmful.
But if there are no rules, you can't make a square or a circle.
What a headache.
Huo Guang's series of actions can be regarded as blinding Mrs. Huo and Sun Ying.
I got the hairpin and left the shop.
Mrs. Huo frowned at this time and asked in confusion: "Guang'er, I heard what you meant just now. You opened this shop, but why do you still have to pay?"
"Oh, mother, because I don't completely own this store, there are people on top." Huo Guang didn't want to explain, so he rambled on.
Mrs. Huo usually only lived in a small place in Pingyang with Huo Zhongru, so she didn't understand it, but she was still curious, so she asked again: "What does this mean? How can you open a shop and still have someone above you? Who is above you?" ?」
"Mom, listen clearly, I whispered."
Huo Guang then leaned into Mrs. Huo's ear and whispered, "It's Your Majesty."
"Your Majesty?" Mrs. Huo was suddenly surprised.
She had no idea that her son's boss was actually the current emperor.
Immediately.
Mrs. Huo looked at it with a smile, thinking that her son was doing well in Chang'an.
Someone who can have a relationship with His Majesty.
Are they ordinary people?
But Huo Guang suddenly hissed: "Mom, keep your voice down."
But at this moment, Mrs. Huo felt a little proud and said: "Son, aren't you already a doctor? What are you afraid of!"
"Hey, mother, you don't know that Yilang is just a low-level official with no rights. Compared with my brother, I am nothing. Didn't you listen to what the person in the shop asked me just now if I was the champion brother? Isn't it Huo Yilang?" Huo Guang shook his head.
really.
No matter how well you are doing in Chang'an at this time.
foreign.
Huo Guang's name will always be the champion brother.
Without this reputation.
It is impossible for any of his shops, including this Le Restaurant, to continue operating in Chang'an.
It is even less likely to receive special care from His Majesty.
If it were anyone else.
Can we enclose the land outside Chang'an City if we want to, open restaurants if we want to open restaurants in Chang'an City, and open shops if we want to open shops?
What's more.
He also gave Huo Guang the identity of Yilang.
can only say!
His Majesty's preference for the champion hussar general is unique. What's more, the love for the house and the bird has spread to his own champion brother.
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Huo felt that this was also the case and said on the spot: "Yeah, Guang'er, you and your brother should get along well in the future. Outside, elder brothers are like fathers, so don't make your brother angry."
"Ah, I know."
"......"
...
Two days later, in Weiyang Palace.
After Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che checked Prince Liu Zhi's homework, he came back with a displeased face.
Maybe it's because of the influence of Gu Liang's biography.
Or maybe it was because of his rebellious thoughts towards the powerful Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty that Liu Zhi actually discussed with him today about Da Nong Ling Yan Yi.
Prince Liu Zhi thinks.
Zhang Tang, the imperial censor, was a sycophant, while Yan Yi, the great farmer, was an upright man.
Although he did not directly say that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty believed that women were sycophants and harmed Zhongliang.
But since ancient times, emperors have been suspicious, especially towards their own princes. You know, since ancient times, due to the instigation of some jesters, emperors have even regarded their princes and princes as imaginary enemies.
"How did Dong Zhongshu teach the prince and let him learn from Gongyang? He just wanted the prince to be as tough as me. Is that his business if a good and loyal girl acts like a sycophant? He has not yet become the emperor!" Han Emperor Wu was furious in the palace.
Yan Yi was executed, and everything passed through Zhang Tang's hands.
But what he did was ordered by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
Those words of the prince.
It was undoubtedly a loud slap on Emperor Wu of Han's face.
At this time.
Han Shuo, who had been following His Majesty, said: "Your Majesty, please calm down the anger. The prince is young and can only tell stories from hearsay. How can one tell the difference between a loyal daughter and a daughter? Looking at the future, it must be Dong Zhongshu who has confused the prince with his nonsense."
Dong Zhongshu has restored his status as a scholar.
But there is no doubt about it.
At this moment, he is the best candidate.
Plus.
The man surnamed Dong had learned from the past. When a fire broke out in the imperial mausoleum, Dong Zhongshu actually wanted to write a letter to reprimand His Majesty, and even tried to control the imperial power through telepathy.
And so on.
But after hearing this, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Dong Zhongshu, he should not dare to talk nonsense again!"
Say it.
Liu Che shook his head again and said, "Please help me keep an eye on the prince and see what's going on."
When Han heard this, he immediately nodded and said, "No."
then.
In the main hall, a deathly silence suddenly fell.
After a while.
Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, who was sitting in a high position, put his hand on his forehead and asked Han Shuo: "I'm almost mad. Is today the wedding day of my hussar general?"
"Yes!" Han Shuo nodded and continued: "His Majesty has sent a pair of mandarin duck jade as a congratulation to General Hussar's wedding."
"oh..."
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty pondered for half an hour.
Living in the palace for a long time has become unbearable.
The playful attitude of his childhood was aroused again, and he said: "The wedding of General Xiuqi should be held in Wei Qing's mansion, right? I heard that even Huo Xiuqi's biological father who was far away in Pingyang was invited. It should be quite lively. Tell me, do you want me to join in the fun?"
"General Hussars and General Wei are Your Majesty's ministers. It is a great honor for Your Majesty to go and participate." Han said flatteringly.
only.
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty said: "No, no, I don't want to raise an army and stir up a lot of people when I go this time. I want to go under the title of Pingyang Marquis."
As soon as Han Shuo heard this, he immediately expressed his position: "Your Majesty, General Hussar's wedding is going to be attended by a large number of people and there are many fish and dragons mixed together. It is very dangerous for Your Majesty to go there. It is better to go with your ministers and have a protector." answer."
After hearing Han's loyal speech.
After Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty looked him up and down, he immediately said movedly: "Han said, I know you are loyal, but let's forget it this time?"
"I have General Hussars and General Wei, do I still need your protection?"
"Moreover."
"There are too many people who know you. If you follow me, even a fool will recognize me. That would be boring."
"So this time, I am going to take Prince Consort Jin Rixi with me."
