The big man has a living father

Chapter 152 (Big Chapter) The Huo Family Has a Successor
Time flies, and it’s already July.

The autumn harvest is approaching.

What Huo Hai didn't expect was that God would be so kind to him and he had such a bumper harvest.

So far, there have been no weather anomalies.

As long as there is no continuous heavy rain during the cotton and wheat harvest period, the agricultural innovation will be considered a success.

However, Huo Hai has no time to take care of these things recently.

Because of his previous bad mouthing, Princess Wei Chang asked Huo Hai to confess his love once a day, or write or say a love word, and he had to come up with something different.

Huo Hai is also very good at fighting for it. How can he say it in vain? After saying it every day, he must be able to hug, kiss, hug and lift up high.

In this way, this matter becomes a hobby between young lovers.

Today is the time to prepare again.

Liu Xijun was standing by and clapping her hands in boredom: You couples are doing these weird things, why do you bring me along? What, am I also part of your play?
Huo Hai said, "I am tone-deaf and can't hear the notes accurately. I don't even know if the things about musical instruments are accurate. Please help me keep an eye on them."

Who told you that you have musical talent?
Huo Hai cleared his throat: "A hit like this with the bamboo board..."

Before they started practicing, Huo Qubing and Huo Zhongru passed by the courtyard.

Huo Zhongru had always been in Pingyang County.

He is the least suitable person to come to Chang'an.

Because now Wei Shaoer is Chen Zhang’s wife.

What does it mean for Huo Zhongru to come to Chang'an?
However, this time he had to come because Huo Qubing's concubine was about to give birth.

Last winter, one day Huo Hai saw Huo Qubing entering the house with his arms around a maidservant affectionately. From that day on, the maidservant became Huo Qubing's concubine.

And her belly was getting bigger and bigger.

The woman was pregnant with the first child of the third generation of the Wei and Huo families.

If it were in the past, when Huo Zhongru got the news, he would have estimated that the baby would be born soon, and if he had rushed over, the baby would have been able to crawl by the time he arrived.

Now, thanks to Pingyang County Transportation Company, both information and travel are very fast.

It only takes two or three weeks to get from Pingyang to Chang'an.

Then Huo Zhongru had no choice but to go to Chang'an.

Besides, Wei Shaoer wasn't actually angry with him, it was just that Chen Zhang needed to worry about him now that he was here.

Therefore, it is best for Wei Shaoer to stay away from Huo Zhongru during the two days he is here.

In fact, it is good for the family for Huo Zhongru to visit his eldest grandson.

Huo Hai and Huo Qubing both wanted to build houses in the new city.

Because Xincheng is much closer to the imperial palace than Lingxian.

However, the king's palace was 100 acres, and the general's palace was 80 acres, which fixed the specifications of the palace.

Therefore, Huo Qubing and Huo Hai discussed it and decided to repair it separately.

Just fixing the house together.

After Huo Zhongru arrived, he used his status as an elder to persuade the two brothers for the first time that the mansions must be built together and cannot be separated.

Once the family splits up, they will be separated.

Huo Hai and Huo Qubing were very capable in Chang'an and no one dared to tell them how to live their lives.

But the two of them still carefully considered what Huo Zhongru said.

Finally, after hearing about it, Liu Che solved the dilemma.

Liu Che issued an imperial decree, saying that the crown prince was old and needed to interact with people, and built Bowang Garden to be used for the crown prince to interact with people.

It is built beside the canal, which is a popular waterfront area in the new city, and occupies an area to the west of the planned new city.

The planned scale of the palace construction is larger than the current Crown Prince's Palace.

In order to protect the prince's safety, the West Guard Mansion, the East Huo Mansion and the North Gongsun Mansion were built next to Bowang Garden to ensure the prince's safety.

The West Guard Palace was given to the Wei family, the North Guard Palace was given to Gongsun He, and the East Guard Palace was given to the Huo family.

The specifications are all 200 acres.

Once this order is issued, there is nothing more to say, after all, it is for the future crown prince.

The crown prince was the son of Wei Zifu. The three families of Wei, Huo, and Gongsun were all in-laws of the Wei family. It was very reasonable for the three families to support the Wei family.

The other princes wouldn't say anything either.

Besides, who doesn't know that Liu Che has too much money to spend now, and he is looking for ways to spend it everywhere, and pass the money on to the people in the form of wages? When the people have money, the nobles can make more money, so who would stop him?

After this matter was resolved, Huo Zhongru said that he would hurry back to Pingyang County.

The reason is simple.

Huo Zhongru had been in Chang'an for less than a month, and he met beautiful women on the road every day.

It is said in Chang'an that Huo Zhongru's crops are good and should not be missed.

If it were in the past, Huo Zhongru would have just smiled and of course faced the challenge head-on.

But now, Huo Zhongru dared not do that. What if he offended his eldest son because of his unruly behavior? How could he live in the future? He finally lived a life of nobility and wealth, but he wanted to kill himself?

Besides, if you have money, you can marry any wife. Why do you have to come to Chang'an to have another wild affair?
But Huo Zhongru also knew that he could not withstand it with his own strength.

So, Huo Zhongru decided that it was time to go back.

As for why I didn’t wait for my eldest grandson to be born, of course I couldn’t wait.

Because Wei Shaoer wanted to see the birth of his eldest grandson, if Huo Zhongru was there, Wei Shaoer would not be able to see it, so Huo Zhongru had to leave in advance.

I have been looking at my daughter-in-law through her belly for a month, which is not a short time. One should not be too greedy.

Before leaving today, Huo Zhongru wanted to decide one thing with Huo Qubing, which was to give their eldest grandson a name.

When he arrived at the courtyard, Huo Zhongru looked at his second son, still somewhat incredulous.

A year and a half ago, when I first met Huo Hai, he was still a dark and thin boy who couldn't read a single word.

A year later, Huo Hai became a well-known literary giant, second only to Qu Yuan throughout the ages, and slightly comparable to Sima Xiangru, and even better than Jia Yi.

That’s not all. Huo Hai also led the entire Chang’an to great development. Although his official position was not high, everyone knew that he was Liu Che’s right-hand man.

Once this large-scale experiment in Chang'an County is completed, he will definitely be promoted to at least two thousand stones, comparable to the Nine Ministers.

In fact, who in Chang'an City didn't know that Huo Hai was dating Princess Wei Chang? He would be her future husband.

However, what comforted Huo Zhongru was that although the two children he did not raise were both outstanding people, the ones he raised were also not bad. Now they are the most trusted young officials of His Majesty the Emperor and he is with them every day.

Huo Zhongru used to work in the mansion of Marquis Pingyang. He knew very well that if one could live around important people, even if one was a complete loser, one could eventually hold a high position. Besides, his third son was not a loser.

Being able to accompany His Majesty the Emperor without making him feel unhappy is definitely a great skill.

Every day he spends with the emperor is his political capital, and no one will be able to match it in the future.

Huo Zhongru still couldn't believe that his three sons were all outstanding people and were doing so well.

Thinking of this, Huo Zhongru felt that his belt was more valuable than the key to the safe at home.

Liu Xijun performed the quick-paced song while Huo Hai rapped the lotus flower song, and Huo Zhongru and Huo Qubing did not disturb them.

After listening to it, Huo Zhongru gave a thumbs up and said, "My son has a great talent for music!"

"Great!"

"The princess will definitely like it."

Huo Hai laughed.

Huo Qubing: "Father is going back."

Huo Hai was surprised: "Ah? So fast?"

Huo Zhongru nodded and said, "It's time to go. I am still the deputy general manager of Pingyang County Transportation Company. The warehouse here has been built and put into use. I should go back to Pingyang County to keep an eye on it."

Huo Qubing: "Before I leave, there is one thing I need to confirm, and that is the name of his eldest grandson."

Huo Hai: “What do you mean?”

Huo Qubing: "Generally speaking, people like to find allusions in ancient books and classics when naming. But we have a cultured person like you in our family, so shouldn't you help?"

Huo Hai thought for a moment and said, "Just give it a name, right?"

Huo Qubing and Huo Zhongru both stared at Huo Hai, wanting to see what name Huo Hai would come up with.

Huo Hai pinched his chin: "Let me think about it."

Huo Hai, who was not good at naming, thought for a long time and said, "If it's a girl, I'll call her Huo Yunjing."

When Huo Zhongru heard this, he began to praise: "What a nice name, it sounds nice. It's like the "Yun" in "white cloud" and the "Jing" in "clean", right?"

When Huo Hai heard this, he realized that his father was much more educated than himself.

Huo Hai was bad at naming, so he couldn't think of a good name. Huo Hai thought of "He Yun Jin, which means... when we raise pigs at home, we always say, 'Have the pig food mixed evenly' when we feed the pigs every day."

Huo Zhongru was stunned. He didn't expect Huo Hai was joking.

Huo Qubing: "Where's my knife?!"

"He Yun Jin, right? Is the boy's name He Cement?"

Huo Hai laughed loudly and ran: "No, according to me, the boy's name is Huo Yuanjia."

"Just kidding, stop chasing me!"

Huo Zhongru thought about it seriously: "Huo Yuanjia, Yuan means the beginning of all things, Jia is the first of the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches, what a good name!"

Huo Qubing didn't continue to pursue: "Can't you be serious?"

Huo Hai: "Brother, when your son grows up, I heard that his name was given by me, not by you. Is that appropriate?"

Huo Qubing: "What's inappropriate about that? You are a great writer."

Huo Hai: "You are also a great educator and a great scholar. Your image and Confucius' image are hung side by side at the gates of many schools."

"What did you name him?"

Huo Qubing: "Huo Xian, the one with the female character."

Regardless of whether they are men or women, they are all Huo Xian.

Huo Hai remembered that his eldest brother’s son was indeed named Huo Shan.

Liu Xijun finally couldn't help but interrupt: "Is it the Zen I was thinking of?"

"嬗" has only one meaning, which is the "zen" in "fengshan", and is a homophone of "zen".

The original meaning can also be said to be abdication, change, transmission, and inheritance.

But isn’t this name a bad one?

Feng is called "sacrifice to heaven" and Zen is called "sacrifice to earth".

It’s for the emperor only.

Huo Qubing: "His Majesty said that if I could flatten the desert, he would allow me to perform the Fengshan ceremony in the desert on his behalf."

"I thought about it and it seems not a good idea for me to go to Fengshan. If this day really comes, I will only offer sacrifices to the heavens, not the earth. The name Huo Xian will be a commemoration of this promise. It is also a goal I set for myself. Within five years, I will flatten the desert."

Huo Hai shook his head.

The research on revolvers, rifles, and flintlocks had been completed long ago.

If it is enough to be usable, then the flintlock rifles produced two months ago are enough to build modern firepower.

And now the first phase of research on these three things is coming to an end.

Once these three things come out, combined with his elder brother's ability to lead troops, it will not take five years to pacify the desert.

Fifty days is too many.

Huo Qubing thought Huo Hai nodded his head because he thought the name Huo Xian was not good: "You think it's not good? Then change it a little bit so that the commemoration is not so obvious?"

Huo Hai: “For example?”

Huo Qubing: "For example, Huo Kun?"

Qian represents heaven and Kun represents earth. Wouldn't it be better to change the word "Xian" (sacrifice to the earth) to "Kun"?
Huo Hai poked his head out: "I suggest not to!"

If his name is Huo Kun, he will face another disaster in 2,100 years!
Huo Qubing tilted his head: "Why?"

Huo Hai: "Uh...uh...as the saying goes, Heaven is Father and Earth is Mother, Kun means female, right? How can a boy be named Huo Kun? It would be even worse to name a girl Huo Kun. I suggest that she should be named Huo Xian."

After going around for a long time, I finally got back.

Huo Qubing: "Then it's Huo Xian, it's settled."

Huo Zhongru: "Now that this matter has been decided, I will go back to Pingyang County."

Huo Hai waved to Xiang Xu who was waiting for orders nearby.

Xiang Xu hurried forward: "Sir."

Huo Hai: "Pick two people from the cooking class and take them to Pingyang County."

When Huo Zhongru came to Chang'an, his biggest impression was that there were so many delicious foods in Chang'an.

When I learned that they were all invented by Huo Hai, I was very surprised and liked eating them even more.

He had to go back. After all, he was his biological father, so Huo Hai had to show his appreciation by sending two cooks over.

By the way, pass on the new catering culture.

Huo Zhongru chatted with Huo Hai and Huo Qubing for a while, but there was nothing he could do about Huo Guang.

Huo Guang is on duty today and is not at home.

Huo Zhongru had to set off alone.

After the people left, Huo Hai asked, "Who went there?"

Xiang Xu: "Most of the chefs have bought houses in Chang'an New City and are unwilling to go even though they are paid a high salary. Only Wang Erzhu and Lei Sansi are willing to go."

Huo Hai didn’t know other people, but he knew everyone in the cooking class.

Because Huo Hai often suddenly thought of a dish and asked them to make it.

It has been nine months since the pigpen reform. Recently, new pigs have been slaughtered in large numbers and we can finally eat meat with peace of mind. Huo Hai often asks them to cook, so they all know each other.

"Wang Erzhu and Lei Sansi?"

These two guys are not good at cooking, but they are great at making pastries.

It was fate, right?

Huo Hai ignored this and said, "Let's go. I've made an appointment with the princess to visit the tiger park today."

The reason I went to the tiger park was because the white and purple fur grew so fast.

At this point, the two little guys probably don’t need a second bite to kill someone.

When they are about the same size as dogs, they can be kept. But when they grow too big, even if they have no tendency to hurt people and their eyes are very clear, Huo Hai will not let them roam freely.

Even if they were just playing around, they could easily break the servants' arms.

Therefore, Baimao and Zimao have been sent to Shanglinyuan Tiger Park.

We planned to visit the tiger park today to see if they have adapted well to the new environment.

Along the way, the roads became better and better, and the entire Chang'an County was turned into concrete roads.

But when you reach Wannian County, there is no such good thing.

It seemed as if in an instant, we returned from the industrial age to the agricultural age.

The amount of people on the road is less than one-tenth of that on the streets of Chang'an County.

The neighborhood is enclosed by high walls.

There is neither scenery nor people to be seen between the fields.

There was only a muddy and damaged road after the rain.

Fortunately, to get to Shanglinyuan, you only have to walk a short distance from Wannian County to get to the ranch main road.

Xiang Xu commented as he drove: "I don't know what Wannian County is rebelling against. Could it be that they intend to surpass Chang'an County on paper when the one-year term is up?"

Huo Hai shook his head.

In fact, the per capita tax in Wannian County is higher than that in Chang'an. Because Wannian County does not encourage commerce, small vendors are also taxed, and the proportion collected is one-thirtieth, and slightly larger vendors are taxed 15%.

Moreover, people who do business in Chang'an County and live in Wannian County have to pay taxes twice.

Although many people moved away directly from Wannian County because of this policy.

But because housing prices in Chang'an County are too high, many people cannot leave.

Can only be taxed twice.

They also want to make more money and move out of Wannian County as soon as possible to Chang'an County or Xincheng.

But the problem is that the more taxes they pay, the less likely they are to accumulate their first pot of gold, and the less likely they are to move away.

So many people's lives are neither up nor down.

I watched as my peers who were doing the same business as me began to grow their assets, while I remained where I was.

Liu Xijun: "Since the blood draw in Wannian County is so serious, why don't they run away?"

"Even if we move to Ling County and rent a house, it's better than living in Wannian County."

Huo Hai: "Do you know how much the rental prices in Chang'an County and Ling County have increased because people from Wannian County have moved out?"

“They have nowhere to go.”

"However, the new city has already started handing over houses. The handing over of houses in the new city means that a large number of people in Wannian County will move away."

It is true that many people have spent money to buy houses in the new city, but now the houses are still in the pre-sale stage, and they have nowhere to live after buying the houses, so they can only move when they are able to move in.

I have been staying in Wannian County and have been sucked.

Liu Xijun: "But in this case, Wannian County's tax revenue will not be any worse than Chang'an County's. How will we determine the winner then?"

Huo Hai smiled: "The more they don't want to lose, the more they want to suck blood."

"If they suck blood secretly, no one will notice it."

"But they let go and everyone could see it."

"Do the book results matter? Don't forget that when Yi Shuo released the statistical data, he specifically mentioned the top ten data illusions."

Zhang Tang is now in charge of taxation in Wannian County.

Zhang Tang and Zhao Yu are different.

Zhang Tang did not do anything beyond the boundaries, but under the law, he did everything to the limit and squeezed everything to the limit.

In fact, if we only look at the accounts, Zhang Tang did achieve an economy that was not inferior to that of Chang'an County.

After all, the average amount of money collected is about the same.

Although people have been fleeing Wannian County.

But the problem is that Chang'an's population is growing explosively and there are simply not enough houses.

In Chang'an County, some people have started to rent a room instead of a yard.

Even so, Chang'an County still cannot accommodate so many people.

These people can only live in Wannian County.

Therefore, no matter how hard the people of Wannian County tried to escape, they could not fit in. It was as crowded as Chang'an County.

why?

Because even though Wannian County is not as good as Chang'an County, its economy is much more prosperous than Guandong and other places.

Even if taxes are collected, you earn 500 coins a month in Luoyang, so what if you don't pay taxes?
If you find a job in Chang'an that pays two or three thousand, even if you deduct 3%, 6%, or even half of the tax, it will still be higher than the salary in Luoyang.

Therefore, being able to live in Wannian County is a huge benefit that people in surrounding cities cannot ask for.

Zhang Tang saw this clearly, so he held on to taxation.

He knew that he could make the account data look better than Chang'an County!
At the same time, in terms of educational statistics, just as expected at the beginning, the enrollment rate of children in Wannian County can reach a terrifying one-tenth.

But, this can't be compared with Chang'an County.

The school enrollment rate of children in Chang'an County was much higher than the one twentieth that Shi Qingyi had initially imagined.

Now it has reached 70 percent!

Even in Chang'an County, the adult enrollment rate has reached 10 percent!
Once night falls, there are night schools everywhere.

In the past, many people could not see the blackboard clearly at night, so what they learned was in vain.

But once Huo's Jewelry began to offer mirrors, it soon provided schools with a new device.

Night School Lens.

The lens has two sides, one side is a mirror, a concave mirror, which can reflect all the light from the back of the fire to the front direction.

The front of the lens is a transparent convex mirror, which can refract all the light from the front of the fire to the front.

If you put two of these lenses, you can illuminate the entire blackboard just by using large candles or oil lamps.

This thing was originally used in lighthouses in the previous life. Huo Hai saw that people from the Academy of Sciences were researching new equipment to provide lighting for night schools, so he helped them improve it.

You should know that even modern spotlights use this structure.

This refraction and reflection has put almost all the knowledge beyond the optical spectrum in front of researchers, so there have been more and more research results on optics recently.

With the night school lens, the night school enrollment rate has greatly increased and the educational efficiency has also improved.

Therefore, Wannian County really has no way to compete with Chang'an County in terms of education.

As a result, Zhang Tang tightened his control over taxation.

However, the tighter he held on, the more clearly the officials in the Han court saw.

Now, Zhang Tang has accepted his own opinion and continues to collect taxes wildly to help Shi Qing suppress Huo Hai.

Huo Hai ignored them.

The reason for this is that after the early stages of commercial development, Wannian County's system was indeed more suitable for the Han Dynasty.

Even taxes will have to be increased.

Otherwise, the fruits of industrialization will always be concentrated in Chang'an and will not spread to the four borders of the empire.

Because the money the court now uses is actually Liu Che's personal money.

This is because the companies under Liu Che's control occupy the majority of the market.

But this proportion is too large. As long as business takes off, even if Huo Hai and Liu Che are worked to death, they cannot account for more than 5% of the country's assets. Even 1% will be difficult, let alone the current situation of more than half.

Even if the imperial court established a state-owned enterprise, it was still a state-owned enterprise, and it was still different from a private enterprise in which Liu Che personally held shares.

Therefore, with the development of commerce, Liu Che had to collect commercial taxes.

But, at least not now.

When Zhang Tang implemented this method, there were many bugs and loopholes that needed to be fixed.

What he is mending now is precisely what he is doing in preparation for future tax laws. Why should Huo Hai stop someone from taking the trouble to prepare these things?
After the carriage got onto the main road built inside the ranch, the road towards Shanglinyuan opened up.

The concrete road to Shanglinyuan was built with Liu Che's own money.

It's just to make it convenient for him to have fun and spend money at the same time.

The road on the ranch side is used for ranch transportation.

At present, the ranch is like a green belt dividing the new city and the old city.

The luxury residential area that is being built madly is the other half of the green belt. The two together form the canal green belt, dividing the two sides.

Not only that, a huge underground water channel that people can pass through is now being built in the original No. 2 River Valley.

In the future, the main underground water channel will also be greened.

Before the construction of the railway, this place was the second green belt.

From now on, Chang'an will be from north to south.

New Wei River.

New dense residential area.

Groundwater, green belt.

Open living area.

Villa area, ranch.

Old city Chang'an County, Wannian County.

The main city of Chang'an (the palace complex in the imperial palace area).

The reason why Huo Hai planned two green belts in advance was to separate industrial pollution.

During the wave of industrialization, major cities did not anticipate the serious pollution that would follow.

When Chang'an was first built, Huo Hai was behind the planning. Although pollution was inevitable for development, at least it would not cause such great harm to the residents.

After the road from Shanglinyuan began to climb, the carriage slowed down.

As soon as the carriage stopped, a man came over and spoke to Xiang Xu.

Huo Hai and Liu Xijun were preparing to get off the car, but when they got off, the people left.

Xiang Xu reported to Huo Hai: "The old man has boarded the boat and is heading to Pingyang County via the canal."

Huo Hai nodded.

Xiang Xu: "The person seeing him off reported that Her Royal Highness Princess Wei Chang sent a team of people to see him off, and also sent a shipload of various products from Chang'an."

"He said the old man was very happy."

Huo Hai nodded: "Got it."

In the Tiger Garden of Shanglinyuan, on the arrow tower, Liu Che leaned on his elbows and looked down.

I watched Huo Hai and Liu Xijun get off the carriage.

Liu Che wanted to slap himself.

Chun Chun had previously arranged for Liu Xijun to follow Huo Hai because she wanted to separate Princess Wei Chang and Huo Hai.

As it turns out, the separation is inevitable, and the third party might have been arranged by me as the father myself.

But Liu Che couldn't stop it.

For Liu Che, it would be best for Huo Hai to marry Liu Xijun after marrying Princess Wei Chang.

Even marry more women, the more the better.

Because Huo Hai is too rich now.

According to Sang Hongyang's calculations, Chang'an's current wealth is astonishing, reaching more than five hundred times that of Chang'an three years ago.

It’s even skyrocketing.

If the amount of wealth is calculated in terms of money, then Huo Hai occupies 8% of the wealth of Chang'an City, and Liu Che occupies 65%.

If calculated by product output, that is, the output of means of production, Huo Hai occupied 24% of Chang'an City's wealth, and Liu Che occupied 51%.

This number is too exaggerated.

You know, Huo Hai can spend money to build Chang'an and continue to invest money in projects that will develop Chang'an and the Han Dynasty.

Where is Huo Hai’s son?

Where is the grandson?
Huo Hai's wealth was a hundred times more exaggerated than those princes and nobles who troubled Liu Che fifteen years ago!
As for how to deal with it, the only way Liu Che could think of was to issue a property version of the Enfeoffment Order.

But what if Huo Hai only has one child with Princess Wei Chang?

In the future, this child will have no fewer resources than Liu Ju.

How does this work?
Therefore, Liu Che, considering his status as an emperor, hoped that Huo Hai would marry more wives so that he could have more children and the property could be completely divided. As long as the scale was reduced, it would not be so scary.

However, considering the identity of Princess Wei Chang's father, Liu Che hoped that Huo Hai would never know another woman in his life.

So Liu Che was very conflicted.

At this time, Huo Hai and Princess Wei Chang had already met.

Liu Xijun was playing the clapperboard next to them.

Huo Hai used the rhythm of the fast clapper: "The main board is hit like this, we won't praise anything else."

"Praise us, our Han princess."

"This princess of this big man is beautiful and kind. If you don't believe me, go and see. Hey, go and see the cotton fields all over the mountain..."

Princess Wei Chang was amused by Huo Hai's funny performance and burst out laughing.

Liu Che on the arrow tower had his hands bruised while holding the railing: "The husband is singing and the wife is following, and you are still laughing!"

"fool!"

When Huo Hai finished his rap, Princess Wei Chang said: "I didn't expect that your singing is bad, but you are actually good at singing while talking."

Huo Hai: "Nonsense, rap doesn't need rhythm."

There are three consensuses in the music industry: first, percussion instruments do not require music notation; second, rap does not require tuning; and third, no one will know if a bassist goes off stage to eat hotpot during a performance, and it will not affect the performance fee.

The main board is percussion instrument, and the lotus flower is rap.

Playing the fast-paced lotus flower dance is like playing music that is unreliable and out of tune.

Huo Hai chuckled: "Satisfied? Give me a kiss if you're satisfied?"

Princess Wei Chang blocked Huo Hai's face and said, "Not satisfied."

Huo Hai continued to lean forward: "You can give me a kiss if you are not satisfied."

After Huo Hai succeeded, Princess Wei Chang pulled Liu Xijun and said, "Let's go and ignore this guy."

Liu Xijun: Is it really necessary for you two to bring me along when you two are flirting and talking about love?

On the arrow tower, Liu Che gritted his teeth.

The key point is, these two little ones don’t avoid people.

Everyone knows that Huo Hai is romantically involved with Her Royal Highness the Princess every day.

Many people are learning.

Why don't you learn how to chase girls?
Did you know that His Majesty has issued an order prohibiting marriage between close relatives?
Many marriages of nobles who were arranged to be married at birth fell through.

If you catch up with her, you won't have to struggle in this life. Do you understand that you won't have to struggle for eight lifetimes?

Even if you are not doing this, if others are learning from Huo Hai to pursue girls, how can you make a profit if you don't learn from him?

Therefore, all the young people in Changan now learn from Huo Hai.

Don’t think that Huo Hai was just being funny by doing the clapper talk, but there are many people around him who are learning with notebooks in their hands!
In order to write quickly and not miss anything, these guys still use quill pens and pencils.

These two things are high-tech equipment that researchers at the research institute have only recently started using.

They recorded it.

This means that everyone in Chang'an knows how Huo Hai and Princess Wei Chang are in love!
However, the silver lining in this unfortunate situation is that Huo Hai was not labeled as a romantic genius or a romantic guru.

Instead, Sima Xiangru, who was already old and had served as the Minister of Industry and Commerce, suddenly became famous in Chang'an City and was called a love saint.

The reason was that when Huo Hai was looking for a master, he told Liu Che that he wanted to learn how to make money and pick up girls from Sima Xiangru.

At first, everyone laughed at it and said that Huo Hai had found the most powerful scholar in the past two hundred years to teach him how to use a spear.

Now I know that Sima Xiangru is a real teacher! Look at Huo Hai, in Chang'an, no, in history, is there anyone who is better at making money than him?
What Bi Gan and Fan Li? Move back a little!
Looking at Changan, who is better at picking up girls than Huo Hai?
Doesn’t this show the value of Sima Xiangru’s reputation for making money and picking up girls?

Sima Xiangru gave the middle finger: Although I don’t know what it means, Huo Hai would give the middle finger when he encountered such a situation, so I did the same.

On the arrow tower, Liu Che looked for a long time and found that Wei Zifu was coming from the other side.

Only then did I remember that I had made up an excuse to go to the toilet and slipped away, and it has been a long time now.

He hurriedly got down from the arrow tower.

Seeing Liu Che in such a hurry, Wei Zifu thought that Liu Che hadn't found the toilet: "Can't find the toilet? There is a new toilet over there."

Liu Che: "Found it, found it, solved it."

As they were talking, on the other side, Huo Hai and Princess Wei Chang came over happily, hand in hand.

(End of this chapter)
