Chapter 94 The granary of the world! The granary of the capital!
The big farmer ordered Yan Yi's daughter to come to him? It must be about Bai Diezi's matter!
besides.
Huo Guang couldn't think of any other reason.
Shaking his head, he looked at the maid who was talking to him in the general's house and asked, "What about Yan Yuren?"
The maid replied: "She has been waiting for a long time, but she left before she could wait for you."
"okay, I get it."
Huo Guang nodded, then waved his hand to indicate to the maid that she could do her thing.
The guard next to him also heard the maid's report, so he said: "Who is it, old cousin, why are you here?"
Huo Guang shrugged and said half-jokingly: "She must be the daughter of Da Nong Ling. Your Majesty asked me to work with Da Nong Ling. She probably came to me to ask me to farm. Otherwise, you can go for me tomorrow.
One trip?”
Mr. and Mrs. Wei immediately shrank his neck and said, "Farming is a joke. How can I, the noble Marquis of Yichun, do that? If I don't go, I won't go."
Huo Guang was just joking to tease him.
How can we really let him do this?
Moreover.
It is impossible to actually farm, but to discuss how to grow cotton.
I thought it was getting late now, so I couldn't talk about anything if I went to Yan Yina. If I wanted to go, I would have to wait until tomorrow. There was something I couldn't talk about tomorrow.
then.
In this way, Huo Guang took a rest after washing up.
There was no entertainment at night in the Western Han Dynasty, so Huo Guang slept until dawn the next day.
I wanted to practice martial arts.
Unexpectedly.
Early in the morning, the maid came to call him, saying that Yan Yu, the daughter of the great farmer Ling's family, was here.
Huo Guang felt a little strange, but he still went to see Da Nong Ling's daughter.
I saw that the other party was wearing very simple clothes, which did not look like the clothes worn by the children of official families at all.
"You are Yan Yu. Didn't you come to see me yesterday? Why are you here again so early today?" After Huo Guang came over, he said hello to Yan Yu.
During the conversation.
He secretly looked at the other person, and it seemed that the other person was already fifteen or sixteen years old.
At such an age, one can already perform haircut ceremony.
certainly.
These are not important. What is important is that after seeing Yan Yu's figure, Huo Guang inexplicably remembered the words of Yuan Keli in the Ming Dynasty, "Modernness is the only way to benefit, and greatness comes from tolerance."
Um.
The last two words are more important.
Yan Yu saw Huo Guang talking and immediately said: "Father asked me to take you over to discuss Bai Diezi's matter. I didn't wait for Huo Yilang yesterday, so naturally I have to come earlier today."
"oh"
Huo Guang paused and then said: "Why don't you go back first? I will practice martial arts later. After sweating, I will take a shower when I come back. Don't worry, I will visit the big farmer today.
Ordered."
However.
Yan Yu shook her head and said, "Then I'd better wait for Huo Yilang. If Huo Yilang doesn't want me to stay in the General's Mansion, I can wait outside the mansion."
"Well, I don't mean that." Huo Guang frowned, then shrugged and said, "Then it's up to you."
Is this Yan Yu afraid that she will run away?
Shake his head.
Huo Guang ignored her and practiced the six arts with his brother as usual. After breaking out in a sweat, he came back to take a bath.
Wait until you change your clothes.
When he came out to take a look, he found that Yan Yu was still waiting for him.
Seeing that Huo Guang had changed his clothes, Yan Yu asked at this time: "Huo Yilang has nothing to be busy with now, right?"
Huo Guang sighed and said: "I have a lot of things to do. Of course, now I can go with you to visit the Da Nong Ling."
Yan Yu nodded after hearing this and said, "Then please Huo Yilang come with me!"
"Walk?"
Huo Guang frowned and asked, "Isn't there a carriage?"
"No." Yan Yu said calmly: "It's not far. Walk faster. We'll be there soon."
Walk faster?
As soon as I heard it, I knew that the distance was not very short.
Huo Guang frowned and said, "If you don't mind it, squeeze into the carriage with me. The carriage in our General's Palace is quite spacious inside."
Yan Yu heard it.
He blushed slightly, but still nodded in agreement.
Later.
The two of them crowded into the same carriage.
At this time, Huo Guang asked: "Don't you have a carriage in Yan's house? As the daughter of a great peasant, you must have a carriage when traveling, right?"
Hear this.
Yan Yu said: "My father often bluntly contradicts His Majesty, so naturally he is not favored by His Majesty like Huo Qiaoqi and the General. Although he is in the ninth rank, his family does not own any real estate, and it is normal not to have a carriage."
There isn’t even a carriage!
All right
Huo Guang frowned, feeling that this was another honest official.
Previously, he thought that honest officials like Zhang Tang, the imperial censor, were already honest enough.
Unexpectedly.
There is also Yan Yi, who is even more strapped for money. He is a good fellow and is a member of the ninth rank, but he doesn't even have a carriage in his house.
Mr. Zhang's family is a bit poor.
After all, there is still a carriage to drive!
Huo Guang did not speak to Yan Yu for the rest of the day until the carriage left the city and came to an area where a large number of officers and soldiers were stationed.
"This is the Capital Cang?" Huo Guang frowned slightly as he looked at the destination the carriage had arrived at.
A warehouse is used to store grain.
The so-called capital warehouse is the place where grain is stored in Chang'an City.
at the same time.
It is also the largest grain processing place in Chang'an City, with many rollers that can grind rice into rice.
Because this is the capital warehouse, there are a large number of soldiers guarding the warehouse, so you can hear the sound of plain drums similar to folk art here.
And because you can hear the sound of shipping boats here, you can also hear sounds similar to the old-style opera that is unique to later generations.
Huo Guang didn't expect it.
Yan Yi actually called him to this place.
But that's right.
Although cotton seeds are not considered food, it is normal for such an important thing to be kept in a granary for guarding.
Huo Guang and Yan Yu got out of the carriage, were interrogated by the guards, and then let in.
now.
The great farmer Yan Yi is leading his subordinate officials to manage the food issue.
Yan Yu stepped forward and said, "Dad, Huo Yilang is here."
"Yes." Yan Yi nodded, then looked at Huo Guang and said with a serious smile: "Huo Yilang, please wait a moment. Several colleagues and I still need to deal with the food accumulation problem first."
