Chapter 048 Uncle, I want to use your family power to meet someone(1/2)
Uncle Wei Qing was scolded in the palace? Huo Guang really didn't know about this.
but!
Huo Guang is now more curious about another question, how did Pu Tian know?
"Uncle, how do you know this? This is a matter in the palace. Most people won't know about this, right?" Huo Guang stared at him and continued to ask: "You want to say that you are not an official, but I don't believe you?"
Pu Tian smiled faintly and said, "You forgot, your uncle Wei Qing and I are good friends. He told me this personally."
Forehead...
All right!
I forgot, they both know each other.
Thinking of this, Huo Guang shrugged and said, "Then why did your majesty suddenly scold my uncle? Didn't it mean that your majesty prefers generals?"
"Who told you that His Majesty prefers generals?" Pu Tian glared at Huo Guang, and then explained: "The Emperor scolded General Wei. I heard it was because of that thing called Qingfeng Xiangyin."
"Qingfeng Xiangyin?"
Huo Guang's voice suddenly became louder.
Pu Tian, who was just talking, was startled. He immediately stared at him and said, "What are you doing!"
"Oh, no..." Huo Guang waved his hand quickly and said, "I want to ask, what does this thing have to do with my uncle? Also, it's just a piece of toilet paper, does the emperor want to scold the general?"
"It's just a piece of toilet paper? Do you know the value of this thing?" Pu Tian snorted, and then said: "Your uncle has been obsessed with money by this thing. The emperor asked him for the recipe for making paper, and he is still there.
Pretend to be confused. Do you think you can avoid being scolded?"
injustice!
What an injustice.
Uncle Wei Qing is simply more unjust than Dou E!
If my uncle knew about this papermaking technology, how could he not dedicate it to the emperor?
Thinking of this, Huo Guang quickly shook his head and said: "Uncle, why does the emperor want this recipe for making toilet paper? If the palace needs it, can't he buy it directly?"
"This Qingfeng Xiangyin is expensive, though."
"But there's no way the palace can't afford it!"
Huo Guang thought that the palace also wanted to buy this kind of thing.
However.
Pu Tian shook his head and said: "It is said that someone mentioned it to His Majesty. If this toilet paper is popularized, it will be the same as the Yantie official business, and it will increase the national fiscal revenue by at least 10%!"
Increase by 10%?
Isn’t this just bullshit!
Huo Guang frowned and asked directly: "Who said this?"
"It seems that he is a close official of the emperor, serving Sang Hongyang!" Pu Tian replied.
Sang Hongyang?
Is it the later imperial censor Sang Hongyang?
Huo Guang narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking that according to historical records, this guy was his later political enemy!
You have to be careful.
After thinking for a while, Huo Guang asked again: "Uncle, do you know this Sang Hongyang?"
"We know each other, we have some friendship." Pu Tian nodded.
However.
Huo Guang said at this time: "Then please tell him, if you don't understand, don't talk nonsense. Toilet paper is not salt and iron, how can it be improved by 10%!"
But what Huo Guang said.
Pu Tian had doubts and asked: "Why not? Do you know that Sang Hongyang is famous for his calculations. People have already done the calculations and said that it can achieve the effect of increasing the finance by 10%."
"Ah..."
Huo Guang sneered and asked: "Then does he know how toilet paper is produced? Has he considered the problem that Chang'an City is many times richer than other places?"
"Toilet paper sells well here not because it is something people cannot live without."
"It's because all the people living in Chang'an City are powerful families, and there are no poor people."
"Look at the farmers outside Chang'an who don't even have enough to eat. Do they care whether their buttocks are clean and comfortable?"
Huo Guang refuted Pu Tian's statement!
To know!
Why did he continue to set up "Goulan Listening to Music" non-stop after he established the toilet paper business?
Of course it’s to make money!
There are only about 30,000 residents in Chang'an City, and the toilet paper business has reached a saturation level.
If you want to make more money.
So!
Just find another way.
After listening to Huo Guang's words, Pu Tian nodded in understanding and said: "What you said is quite reasonable, but Sang Hongyang was originally a businessman, and he is good at calculation and eloquent words."
"Is it possible that he, an adult, is not as good as a young man like you?"
"Why do you dare to conclude that toilet paper cannot be promoted?"
Why do you decide?
Upon hearing this, Huo Guang stood up without saying a word and straightened his coat.
Later.
He lowered his voice and replied in a very precise manner: "Because, this toilet paper business is my business!"
Pu Tian, who was sitting on the chair, was stunned for two seconds.
In an instant.
He remembered that when they first met, the little guy seemed to have said he wanted to do some toilet financing business.
But soon.
Pu Tian's expression turned cold and asked: "Did you do it? I think Wei Qing produced the toilet paper and asked you to be responsible for it, right?"
"No, no, no!" Huo Guang quickly explained: "It has nothing to do with my uncle, and by the way, it has nothing to do with my brother either. I am the only one doing this business."
"oh!"
"That's not right, there should be three people, and the Marquis and Wei of Yichun."
Has nothing to do with Wei Qing? But has something to do with his son Yichun Hou?
These words!
Pu Tian didn't quite believe it, but still asked: "Aren't there just two people? Is there another one?"
"You are not human!" Huo Guang suddenly blurted out.
For a while.
Pu Tian didn't react. He slammed the table and said angrily: "What did you say?"
The words fell.
The singing and dancing singers also stopped.
Huo Guang waved his hand and asked them to leave, then explained: "I mean, uncle, you are the third person in our toilet paper business."
"Have you forgotten?"
"I deceived you back then... ah no, I persuaded my uncle to invest the capital."
I heard Huo Guang explain.
Only then did Pu Tian realize that he was one of the businessmen in the toilet paper business after such a long journey.
He also scolded Wei Qing.
Why...
Thinking of this, he confirmed with Huo Guang again: "Your uncle Wei Qing, really doesn't know about this toilet paper business? Didn't you and the Marquis of Yichun tell him about it?"
"Of course not. If there was, with my uncle's character, I wouldn't have contacted His Majesty earlier!" Huo Guang shrugged.
Secretly I was glad that I didn't tell my uncle about this.
Otherwise, if the palace finds out, and the court intervenes, his business will be ruined.
However.
To be continued...
