Chapter 111 Goodbye Yan Yu! Time to pick cotton

Huo Guang narrowed his eyes slightly and stared sternly at the businessman named Tian Jia in front of him, wondering if he should arrest this businessman and interrogate him?

To know!

Among the four types of people: scholars, farmers, industry and merchants, merchants had the lowest status.

Besides!

The relationship between Tian Jia and the imperial censor Zhang Tang has already broken down.

Even if Huo Guang really catches him, he won't have any worries. After being caught, if he can torture out the person who leaked the secrets of the imperial court, he might be able to gain a favor from Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty!

certainly.

Just think about these.

Most of the people who were doing business in ancient times were smart and cunning. If they didn't have any brains, how could they make money in a feudal society where people were treated like hair and blood?

Look at Huo Guang's appearance!

Tian Jia had already noticed something was wrong, and immediately pretended to be nothing, laughed calmly and said: "Huo Yilang, what is there to care about? You want to build four new cities around Chang'an City. What are the things in the city?"

All the wealthy businessmen know this."

"I'm also a businessman, so it's not surprising to hear them say this!"

"and."

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

"It has long been reduced to a joke among the wealthy businessmen in Chang'an City!"

Do all the wealthy people in Chang'an City know about this?

Good guy!

Who the hell spread the news?

Huo Guang frowned slightly and looked at Tian Jia with some doubts in his eyes.

Although I am not sure whether what he said is true, I have given up the idea of ​​arresting him on the spot.

He only took a few more glances at Tian Jia.

He replied nonchalantly: "Just laugh, 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 made a final gesture of silence.

Then!

He even called the workers over and blasted away the Tianjia.

Since all the merchants in Chang'an knew what they were going to do, there was no point in grabbing Tian Jia and asking him questions.

after all.

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

Of course!

Huo Guangda could investigate this matter in detail, but the process would be too time-consuming and meaningless.

Originally, the construction of houses on enclosed land was something visible to the naked eye.

No paper can cover the fire.

How can we stop everyone from talking about this?

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 is a circle of wealthy businessmen spreading this news to him for free, isn’t it great?

And this Tian Jia, after being blasted away by Huo Guang.

He glanced thoughtfully at Huo Guang's blast furnaces, which were as numerous as mountain peaks, and thought for a long time with a slight frown.

finally.

Still looking like he didn't understand, he sighed and returned to his Tian family's mansion in Chang'an City.

First, take a shower and wash yourself.

Later.

Tian Jia then got on the carriage, went to Sang Mansion, and knocked on the door of Sang Mansion.

When the people from the Sang Mansion saw him, they said in a familiar manner: "My husband has prepared wine and food in the house and is waiting for you to come over and get together!"

"Well, please lead the way."

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

But it is a matter of etiquette to let the master's servant lead the way.

A guest follows the host as he pleases, and a servant is expected to lead the way.

How can you be a guest in someone else's house and rush in directly? Then why don't you become a guest?

After hearing this, the servant 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 family.

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. I am afraid that if you don't come again, I will send someone to pick you up from your house."

.”

"Sang Shizhong is interested." Tian Jia immediately returned his hand.

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

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

At this time.

Sang Hongyang laughed and said: "Brother Tian was away on business some time ago and only came back recently. Of course he doesn't know the changes in Chang'an's customs."

"Because of the emergence of the restaurant table and chair style."

"now."

"Many wealthy families in Chang'anle use tables and chairs like this."

"It's called Ya."

Tian Jia sat on the long table and chair. Although he felt a little uncomfortable, he still asked: "Since there is such a trend in Chang'an, is Mr. Sang willing to jointly contribute money with me to open a shop specifically to sell this kind of food?"

Tables and chairs, you can definitely make huge profits!"

Say a thousand words and ten thousand things!

Businessmen always pursue profit first. When they see the rise of anything, they will first consider whether it is profitable.

Of course.

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

And when Tian Jia said this.

Sang Hongyang was giving instructions to his maid: "Xiang'er, go and call your wife, my little sister and Qian'er out to eat."

"promise."

After the maid 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 in carpenters' shops in the city. The earliest tables and chairs in Le Restaurant were sold in carpenters' shops.

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 we will lose the land and lose all our capital."

"Carpenter Li Hong?" Tian Jia frowned slightly and asked: "Where does this carpenter get the money to open a shop in a place where land is so valuable in Chang'an City? Moreover, with the elm heads of their craftsmen, they can actually grasp

Such a business opportunity?”

Seeing Tian Jia's suspicious expression, Sang Hongyang immediately smiled and said, "Brother Tian, ​​don't believe me. Do you know who is employed by carpenter Li Hong's shop?"

Tian Jia asked in confusion: "Who is it?"

Sang Hongyang immediately said: "It's the young man who suggested that all officials take the lead in donating money for disaster relief, Yilang Huoguang, the younger brother of General Hussar!"

Hear this.
