"What's wrong? It's very vivid, a horse as hot as the sun."
"Well..., it's pretty good."
"It is said that the Dayang Horse has two forms, black and white."
"I generally understand, Master, no need to explain."
The more Huo Guang listened, the more he felt something was wrong. Looking at Gan Fu's serious look, he realized that he was not joking with him.
"Master, can I see the process? The process of making mechanical creatures."
Gan Fu hesitated for a while and said: "Tomorrow, I will prepare it today. Before each production, I have to fast and bathe to gather my energy. Come over tomorrow morning, I will prepare it now."
Having already agreed to teach Huo Guang, Gan Fu did not hold anything back and taught Huo Guang everything he knew and did.
Huo Guang was a little excited. Tomorrow he would be able to see the whole process of making the steel war horse.
Gan Fu went to prepare. Once it came to making mechanical creatures, he was very serious. Only with such an attitude can he become an excellent stylist.
Sang Jin took the little girl Sang Zi from the servant. Sang Zi reached out for Huo Guang to hug her, but Huo Guang had no choice but to hug her.
"Abba, Abba." The automatic father recognition function is still as skillful as ever.
"Ah Guang, we are about to leave for Luoyang. We expect to leave in a few days."
Huo Guang didn't know what to say for a moment. Anyway, he couldn't tell what Sang Jin was looking forward to, so he simply said: "Is there anything you need my help with?"
Sang Jin shook his head: "We will go back to Luoyang first, and then we should go to Chang'an around the New Year. By then, Aguang, you should also be in Chang'an."
"I guess so. My eldest brother should be back soon."
When Huo Guang returned home, he skipped three steps and was in a great mood. However, as soon as he got home, he saw an uninvited guest, the Li family of Zhao County, Li Yi.
Ever since he found out about the conflict between Huo Guang and Li Yi, Huo Zhongru treated Li Yi as a distinguished guest before, but now if he didn't maintain his dignity, he wouldn't even bother to let him in.
There were many gifts placed in the courtyard, but they remained intact. Although Huo Zhongru basically accepted all the gifts, he still had principles. He could clearly distinguish between what should be accepted and what should not be received.
Chu.
When Li Yi saw Huo Guang coming back, he quickly stood up and said, "Brother Huo."
"Brother Li, why are you here today?"
"I just wanted to come and see Brother Huo. I sold some gifts. I hope Brother Huo accepts them if it's not disrespectful."
"No reward for no merit, Brother Li, I dare not accept this from you."
Huo Guang walked into the house as he spoke. Li Yi had long lost the arrogant demeanor of a scholar when they first met. He chased Huo Guang and said in a hurry, with a hint of flattery: "Brother Huo, it's just some ordinary small gifts.
"
"My father taught me to take care of my own things and don't take other people's things."
"Brother Huo, don't you know what my purpose is these days? It's just for pearl salt. You see, pearl salt sells so well in Hedong County. When it is shipped to our county, it can be sold at a high price. Our family has been here for generations.
We have a near-monopoly on the salt industry in Zhao County, so Brother Huo can definitely make a lot of money by working with us."
Li Yi has been running around for this matter these days. He had heard about a salt shop that sells salt out. He also thought about selling salt through this route, but he didn't expect Huo Guang to serve him a pot without mercy.
The salt shop was in turmoil, so I only dared to sell my own share, at least I could still make money.
Li Yi committed a crime in his family, and this time he came out to pay for his crime, because his family has been running the salt industry for generations, and it is very large. They have their own salt field, business gang, and salt shop. Now the emergence of pearl salt has hit them hard.
They looked for opportunities from all directions.
The Sang family had a competitive relationship with theirs, so there was no way to get through it. There was no way to get the production method from the salt farm for the time being, so they finally placed their hope in Hedong County. Li Yi recommended himself and said that he was acquainted with Zhang Jiabo, one of the four great talents in Hedong County.
, the Zhang family was also a big family in Hedong County, so they were appointed to come to Hedong County to look for pearl salt.
He has a cautious personality, but who would have thought that he would offend Huo Guang as soon as he arrived, and Huo Guang has full control over the pearl salt. If he doesn't handle things well this time, he will be looked down upon by others even if he goes back.
To look down on him is an understatement. He has no chance of failure. Once he fails, he will definitely be abandoned by his family. A big family like theirs has never lacked outstanding successors.
So no matter what, he had to deal with Huo Guang and the origin of the pearl salt.
Huo Guang sat down to drink tea, and he stood aside, like a banker who had not completed the performance by the end of the month to get a loan, and said in a low voice: "Brother Huo, what conditions do you have, let us discuss it."
Li Yi, who was as sweet as brown sugar, made Huo Guang a little helpless. No matter what, the pearl salt must not be leaked out now.
Huo Guang said casually: "Well, brother Li, you teach me your Qi armor, and I will share the pearl salt with you."
"Ah?" Li Yi's face was full of astonishment, and Qi Kai started to tell their family's secret.
Huo Guang's move was to get him to retreat and stop bothering him. After all, Gan Fu said that the use of Qi Kai and the form of Qi were the secrets of the Li family in Zhao County. How could he exchange this for pearl salt.
As expected, Li Yi's face was full of embarrassment: "Brother Huo, Qi Kai is a secret of my family and cannot be passed on to others. Please change the conditions. Gold and treasure are all fine. As long as I can get it, I will not be stingy."
Huo Guang stood up and waved his hands and said: "No, no, no, I want Qi Kai. If you don't want to, brother Li, please go. Qiuxiang, see the guests off."
After finding an excuse, Huo Guang directly issued an order to expel the guest, impatiently wanting him to leave quickly.
Li Yi wanted to say something else, but Huo Guang didn't listen at all. He was pushed to the door by the Huo family's groom. As the groom was about to close the door, Li Yi shouted resolutely: "Wait a minute."
"I'll change!"
Li Yi seemed to have made up his mind, staring directly at Huo Guang with his eyes widened.
Damn it, is this kid so bottomless? Family secrets can be used as a condition of exchange.
Huo Guang didn't know what happened to Li Yi that allowed him to do this, and he had no interest in exploring it, but he dared to exchange the family's secret Qi armor, and Huo Guang was even more afraid to cooperate with him.
Although Huo Guang wants Qi Kai very much, pearl salt cannot be exported now. He cannot break his own rules. Secondly, people who have no bottom line cannot cooperate. This is what Huo Guang has always thought. Such people will give
You bring unimaginable trouble.
He has no bottom line, which means that he can break his vows at any time, and his words do not count, and he may even stab you in the back when you least expect it.
Another thing is that Huo Guang looks down on him.
Huo Guang saw him more clearly and looked at him with slight contempt.
