36. National engineering
Staying overnight in Rihua Palace, experiencing the scene of the college entrance examination sprint that year, the sound of reading aloud does not stop until late at night, and the hard work of the students makes Han Yan touch the scene, and there will always be more emotion.
He came to Hejian not only to sell paper, but also wanted to ask Liu De for some Confucian scholars, so that after buying real estate all over the country, someone would take care of the industry, someone would popularize cultural knowledge for the people, and someone would love newspapers and be able to distribute publications.
It's a pity that Liu De treats these Confucian students as treasures and refuses to let go of any of them.
On the morning of the second day, Han Yan wasted his tongue repeatedly, and Liu De gathered everyone to inquire about it because of his feelings, but no one was willing to leave Rihua Palace at all......
There is food and drink here, there is no need to worry about life problems, you can indulge in research, and occasionally you can get a lot of rewards, who wants to put down the status of a noble scholar and become a lowly businessman?
In the end, Han Yan was helpless, as the saying goes, good things are grinding, and nothing is so easy to succeed, so you can only slowly figure it out.
"Senior brother, let me take you to Hejian City for a walk, and see the scene of the people living and working in peace and contentment without closing their doors at night." Liu De held the ancient scroll he had just received in his hand, loved it and was in a hurry to read it.
"Come on." Han Yan said goodbye with interest.
Accompanied by Liu Buxian, the two went out of Rihua Palace together, without escorts, because they were confident that no one would dare to find trouble or offend in this land.
"Yan Shizi, it is said that you have a relationship with King Yan?"
"Well, I went to Yan Country on an errand, what's wrong?" Speaking of Liu Dingguo, Han Yan thought of the fact that this girl wanted to give Dan Dan plastic surgery, and he didn't know if this girl was tidy or not......
"Have you heard about King Yan's childlessness?" Liu Bushen asked mysteriously.
"Well, I heard that."
"It is said that in order to break the myth that he can't have children, it has recently been rumored that he and his three daughters have got into a relationship, and they will be slept together......"
"What?" Han Yan was stunned. scolded in his heart, the three daughters must be the three girls who are incompatible with blood and blood type, Liu Dingguo thought that there was no blood relationship and wanted to play exciting, but the people didn't think so, they just thought that he was inferior to beasts, and even his daughters slept ......
Liu Buxian pursed his lips and was very disdainful of King Yan's actions, "My uncle has gone crazy in order to get a son, ruining the reputation of my Han family, and not even letting go of his daughter, which is intolerable." ”
"Actually, this matter ......" Han Yan thought about it, fortunately, he had a little friendship with Liu Dingguo, so let's help him explain.
So he told Liu Buxian what happened, which made Xiao Liu cry and laugh, and secretly scolded the pervert, you are both livestock, chicken feathers tied to the tail of the mouse, not a good bird, Lao Tzu will have to stay away from you in the future.
The two chatted all over the world, Liu Buxi likes to play around, and he has seen and heard a lot, and he talked about the recent iron price turmoil.
Due to the low output, the iron price of Dahan has remained high, perennial high, after all, the market demand is very large, but recently the iron price has suddenly collapsed, without warning of each stone drop of 100 yuan, will make a group of iron merchants want to cry without tears, pain and life.
Liu Buxian told the hearsay: "It is said that Luoyang has a great talent, named Sang Hongyang, known for his mental arithmetic, Luoyang is only eleven years old this year, and the businessmen say that the collapse of iron prices is what he did. ”
"Impossible, right?" Han Yanhu was suspicious, and he didn't believe that an eleven-year-old child had this ability to play the country's important resources to collapse, "Is this Sang Hongyang with a very powerful background?" ”
"What background does he have...... Liu Buxian sneered: "It's just a despicable merchant family, making money by opportunism, and not in the eyes of the heirs of our princes." ”
"Then how did he break the iron price?"
"It is said that it is to collect iron at a high price and sell iron at a low price, but I don't know very well."
"Sell high, sell low?" Han Yan stared, dumbfounded, and secretly swayed, there was such a economic means two thousand years ago?
Another day, I have to find a chance to meet this Sang Hongyang, the ultimate financial genius......
"What is buying high and selling low?" Liu Buxian didn't understand and asked curiously.
"Hmm...... This, that, I don't know very well. Han Yan didn't want to answer, this thing can't be talked nonsense, otherwise the harm will be endless, so he had to change the topic and say: "That Sang Hong sheep got rich, right?" ”
"It is said that he is very rich, almost monopolizes the price of iron, and is as rich as the country, but I don't think he will be rich for long."
"Why?"
"Merchants are rich and rival the country, isn't that looking for slaughter? Unless Your Majesty opens Chrysostom and allows you to get rich, the people below will not touch you, or at least there are princes and kings as backers, otherwise how can corrupt officials live. In the previous dynasty, there was Deng Tong, and Emperor Wen allowed him to mint money and give him a copper mountain, so that he could get rich and no one dared to move. There is also the Yan Shizi of the current dynasty, and His Majesty allowed him to monopolize paper......"
"......" Han Yan rolled his eyes, you pulled on me to make wool.
The two talked about the world, bragging nonsense, in order to suppress Liu Buxian's limelight, Han Yan could only show off his knowledge, even the seven continents and four oceans, and the so-called gods, ghosts and gods are just beliefs, no one has seen them, but Liu Buxian is an ancient, but he believes that there are immortals, and he also broke the news that he secretly found someone to make alchemy and study immortals without the knowledge of the king of Hejian, and wanted to engage in immortal medicine......
More than ten meters behind the two of them, the three brothers, Biao, Pig and Dolphin, were all dressed as farmers, carrying hoes on their shoulders, hanging and listening from afar...... In fact, they didn't know why they followed, but when they saw that there were no guards to follow, they came to find out the situation with the intention of beating a stick.
The brothers listened to Han Yan's bragging with their ears wide open along the way, and listened to Liu Buxi's intermittent revelations about private affairs, but the distance was a little far, and most of them didn't hear clearly.
"Pig, what kind of immortal did Han Yan say just now?" Bi used his little finger to pick at the ear hole, dug out the ear wax and arched his little finger to play at the brothers.
"I didn't hear clearly, vaguely talking about the elixir, what island countries outside the Han Dynasty, the Byzantine Empire, the Mule and Horse Empire, ......" Pig tried to listen with his ears sideways, and involuntarily shortened the distance, and the back of his head was slapped before he quickly fell away.
"National engineering, gods, get rich?" The dolphin muttered in his mouth, and said with envy: "These princes' heirs are different, and the level of contact is all something that our little people can't understand." ”
"If you can understand, you won't come out to be a ranger." complained sourly, only he knows the sadness of being a ranger.
"There's no way for us to follow like this, right?" Pig looked at the sky, and before he knew it, it was noon, and Han Yan and Liu Buxian were also looking for a wine house to eat.
Yi: "Look at this situation, the Hu people shouldn't come out, it's really impossible to go back to find Jisang, let's just say that we will take turns to monitor in the past two days, and the Hu people haven't left the Rihua Palace......"
Pig: "Yes, yes, yes, he didn't leave the Rihua Palace, otherwise this ranger would have dismantled him a long time ago." ”
Dolphin: "Babble...... Look at my mace! "Playing the short stick, Huo Huo is angry.
……
The three brothers, Biao, Dolphin, and Pig, did not give their strength, and went back to complain to Sang in a gloomy manner, and were ready to be reprimanded, but Sang was unexpectedly calm, and kindly poured tea for his brothers, which flattered the three and trembled......
"In the past two days, there have been people from the Gonggaohou Kingdom, I have inquired, when the Gonggaohou Kingdom sent sixteen people to catch Han Erdan, the three of you must have gone and never returned when you meet him, so if you don't have an accident, I will be relieved."
According to Sang's right arm, which was sandwiched between two wooden planks and hung on his chest with a white cloth, he was pleasant, not like a dispute with others, but the more he did this, the more worried his brother became.
"The three of you have been with me for the past two years, life should be quite nourishing, there are 100 acres of fertile land to raise, I pay for food and drink on weekdays, and I pay the poll tax for you."
Yu hurriedly responded: "It's quite moisturizing." ”
The dolphin nodded like pounded garlic: "It's very moist and moist......"
Pig hugged his fists and saluted: "According to Xia, we are as kind as a mountain." ”
According to Sang: "That's good, as the old saying goes, it takes a thousand days to raise a soldier, and now is the time to use you." Han Yan dared to connive at the Huns to commit murder on the street, which has already caused the anger of the rangers, and Luoyang will come tomorrow, it is my uncle's subordinates, plus the rangers I have gathered in the past two days, there are more than 100 people who are willing to clean up Han Er's eggs together and get back the lost national integrity, but they must leave the Hejian country before they dare to act, so we need someone to find out the news and pass us the route and foothold he is going to take, I think the three of you will definitely be competent. ”
"......" When the brother heard this, he cried and mourned, and his heart was so bitter that his bile was about to overflow.
There are plains outside the river, and the roads are wide, and it is difficult to go out of the city to follow Han Erdan without being discovered, and if you are not careful, you will lose your life.
"Oh, there's another thing......" According to Sang's sudden thought, he said: "If you are discovered, you are not allowed to mention my name, only that you heard that the Huns in Hejian have committed murder, so you have come to fight against me." ”
Brother: "......"
Yi: "That...... According to Xia, Ah Weng called me home in the past two days, saying that my grandfather is about to die, let me see the last side, you look at this ......"
According to Sang, he was surprised for a moment, but he also understood that the matter of death could not be delayed, so he said: "If you have something, you can go back and take care of the old man first, this is three hundred yuan, buy some things for the old man, and bring my greetings." ”
Yu Daxi said: "Thank you for your kindness, thank you for your kindness." ”
The other two brothers looked at it and scolded secretly, you picked a son and ran away and had money to get, but we were going out to die, and we couldn't help but scold in our hearts, saying that we would go to Baitou together, but you secretly baked oil, brother of the dog.
Dolphin: "According to Xia, my grandmother ......"
Pig: "According to the ...... of chivalry"
"Huh?" According to Sang, he frowned, his face sank and said, "Don't tell me that the two of you are dead in your family, so you can't go out of the city to help me with errands, so what's the use of me raising you?" ”
After being debunked, the dolphin and the pig were speechless, so they had to keep their heads down and think hard about how to survive outside the city.
