Chapter 117 The Great Farmer Can Choose!Huo Guang does not shy away from others

Sang Hongyang, who is good at calculating and eloquent, has already seen the ingenuity in Huo Guang's question.

But Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che's arithmetic was obviously not as good as Sang Hongyang's, and he didn't see the problem with the chess pieces in their hands for a while.

and so.

Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, continued to ask: "Huo Guang, you have fourteen chess pieces, and Sang Hongyang only has seven. How can you say the same thing?"

Huo Guang heard this, and said to Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty: "Your Majesty, don't worry, let me explain to you."

"My first sentence is to say that I have as many chess pieces as he has in his hand!"

"Look, I have seven chess pieces, but the number is not the same."

"In the second sentence, I have two more chess pieces than him. Look, if I take out two more chess pieces, it will correspond to it, right?"

"In the end, all the remaining chess pieces were given to Sang Shi. His seven chess pieces, plus the five I gave, is exactly twelve. This exactly corresponds to my last sentence. "

While Huo Guang was speaking, his hands were not idle, and he gently pushed the five extra pieces on the chessboard to the side of Sang Hongyang's pieces.

Emperor Wu of the Han frowned, although he already knew that the opponent's chess pieces were now twelve.

But I couldn't help but count it again.

Then found out.

Sang Hongyang's chess pieces really turned into twelve pieces!
This time, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty showed a curious and amazed expression on his face, clapped his hands and said: "It really is twelve chess pieces, seconds!"

"Huo Guang, don't you know how many chess pieces are in Sang Hongyang's hands?"

"Quick, tell me how this is done?"

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che liked novel things since he was a child. Now that Huo Guang gave him such a trick, he immediately became interested.

Huo Guang then explained: "Your Majesty, to put it bluntly, it's just arithmetic."

"Arithmetic?" Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che squinted at Sang Hongyang.

To say arithmetic.

Sang Hongyang is very powerful.What, he didn't see it?
At this moment, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was very curious.

And Huo Guang also explained at this time: "Your Majesty, you see, in fact, this is the problem of the difference in quantity between the two sides. I have fourteen chess pieces in my hand, and in Sang Shizhong's hand, no matter how many pieces he grabs, as long as Less than twelve, I can make his final result become twelve!"

"It probably means that fourteen minus two equals twelve."

"Twelve minus the number left in his hand is the number of my extra chess pieces."

"The sum of the numbers is equal, and the difference is the remaining number."

"If your Majesty still can't understand, you can remove the middle step and the two extra pieces."

"The total comes to twelve."

"I have twelve chess pieces in my hand. As long as Sang Shizhong is less than twelve, I will subtract the two numbers from each other. If I give him the extra number of chess pieces, it will still be my original number of twelve."

After Huo Guang's explanation.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was enlightened immediately, shook his head and said, "Hey, it's just such a simple arithmetic problem, Sang Hongyang, you didn't see it."

Listen to His Majesty's reproach.

Sang Hongyang looked very embarrassed, and said: "Your Majesty, I have followed Huo Yilang's way. He deliberately used those words to confuse me, otherwise, how can I not see the problem."

Good guy.

Sang Hongyang's mouth is really hard!
Huo Guang raised his eyebrows, glanced at him, and said lightly: "Master Sang, if you lose, you lose. How can there be so many excuses!"

"Humph."

Sang Hongyang snorted, expressing that he didn't want to pay attention to Huo Guang.

At this moment.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty looked at the two people who were having an unpleasant quarrel, waved his hands immediately, and said, "Okay, I asked you to come here today, not to listen to your bickering."

"Among the Nine Ministers, there is still a vacancy in the position of the Da Nong Order!"

"Talk about it, the two of you, who is more suitable for me to arrange to fill this official position?"

Shizhong, Langzhong, Yilang, Zhonglang, etc. are all close ministers around His Majesty, and are the think tanks around the emperor.

Sometimes His Majesty encounters unsolvable matters, and will hold an inner court meeting to discuss solutions.

And the inner court meeting.

It was these close ministers who participated and made suggestions.

and so.

It is normal for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to ask Yu Huo Guang and Sang Hongyang about the candidates for promotion.

Hearing His Majesty's question, Sang Hongyang immediately said: "Your Majesty, I think that Zhuang Qingzhai is feasible. This person is now serving as Yushi Zhongcheng and Prince Taifu, and he is competent!"

When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty heard about Zhuang Qingzhai, he immediately shook his head and said, "Zhuang Qingzhai should let him teach the crown prince. The Da Nong Order is a very busy job, so don't get distracted!"

See His Majesty rejected this proposal.

Sang Hongyang immediately said: "The minister pushes the former crown prince and Taifu, Shi Qing, can your majesty take a look?"

The former prince and Taifu?
When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty heard this, he still shook his head.

The Shi family was so famous that during Emperor Jing's reign, Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty called it the family of Wan Shijun.

There is no other reason.

From the father's generation to the four sons of the Shi family, they are basically officials with a salary of two thousand shi, all of whom are high officials.

If it was during Emperor Jing's reign, of course there would be no problem.

But now that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che is in power, with his suspicious mind, it is naturally impossible to hand over such an important position as the Da Nong Order to the hands of the Shi family and his son.

Sang Hongyang saw that his recommendation was rejected twice in a row, so he didn't dare to say it at the moment.

I'm afraid that talking about someone who His Majesty doesn't like will make Emperor Wu of Han angry.

then.

He turned his finger on Huo Guang and said, "Your Majesty, I can't think of any good candidates for now."

"but!"

"Looking at Huo Yilang's appearance, he should have recommended someone in his heart."

"Your Majesty, why don't you listen to Huo Yilang's suggestion first?"

Good guy.

You can't recommend a suitable candidate yourself, so why blame me?

Huo Guang suddenly felt helpless.

Hanwu Emperor Liu Che, who was on the side, heard what Sang Hongyang said, so he turned his gaze to Huo Guang and said, "Huo Guang, tell me who you think is suitable to fill the vacancy of the Da Nong Order!"

Huo Guang frowned immediately, and asked, "Your Majesty, let me just say one thing. If you don't like what you hear, don't be angry!"

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che said immediately: "But it's okay to say it. If you really don't like it and don't accept your suggestion, that's all. How can you be angry!"

Hear this.

The tension in Huo Guang's heart suddenly eased, and he said quickly: "Your Majesty, the Da Nong Order controls the country's money, grain, goods and other financial revenue and expenditure. For such an official position, you should find someone who is good at juggling arithmetic problems!"

"And such a person?"

"Isn't it far away in the sky, right in front of you!"

Far in the sky, close in front of you?

When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Sang Hongyang heard this, they both stared at Huo Guang in unison.

And Sang Hongyang even stopped him by saying: "Your Majesty, you can't, Huo Yilang is so young, he hasn't even performed the coronation ceremony yet. If you let him be a big farmer and spread it, wouldn't it be laughing at me that there is no one in court? "

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty heard the words.

He also nodded again and again, and said: "Sang Hongyang's words are not unreasonable, Huo Guang, you are still too young. The problem of income and expenditure of money, goods and goods is not a simple game of arithmetic."

It was said by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

Huo Guang suddenly felt a little bit pained, and after sighing a little in his heart, he said, "Your Majesty, I didn't say it was me!"

"I said so."

"Your servant, Sang Hongyang!"

now.

Both Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che and Sang Hongyang couldn't believe their ears. What did Huo Guang say just now?
He says!

Recommend Sang Hong sheep as a big farm order?
Aren't they against each other?

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che was very puzzled, so he asked: "Huo Guang, tell me why you recommend Sang Shizhong!"

Huo Guang said indifferently: "We all know that Sang Shizhong is good at calculating, speaking profitably, and that the big farmers command the world's money, grain and goods. These are just right. Besides, Sang Shizhong even assisted His Majesty in the previous policy of salt and iron government camps." Da Nong ordered Yan Yi to implement this measure."

"Compare the two."

"In the entire imperial court, I am afraid that there is no one who is more suitable for the official position of the Da Nong Order than Sang Shizhong."

Hear this.

Emperor Wu of the Han took another look at Sang Hongyang, thinking how he missed him!

Why was Emperor Wu of Han dissatisfied with Zhuang Qingdi, Shi Qing and others?

Because these two people are not his confidantes, if he takes any action, it is hard to guarantee that he will not object like Yan Yi before.

But if Sang Hongyang took office as Da Nongling.

Don't say anything else.

I will definitely not object to any financial measures I want.

Moreover.

Sang Hongyang's talent is also enough to take up the post of Da Nong Ling.

After some thought.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che finally showed a smile on his face, and said: "Huo Guang, actually, I also have the same meaning, and you want to go with me."

"I'm just curious, aren't you two right?"

"Why do you mention Sang Hongyang?"

Huo Guang immediately said: "Your Majesty, there is a saying that one should not avoid relatives when one is a virtuous person. I just thought, if you don't avoid relatives, you should avoid resentment."

"So the minister's selection of Sang Shizhong is entirely due to his talent!"

"At the same time, this can also well show that the minister has no selfish intentions in electing Sang Shizhong this time."

When Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty heard this, he burst out laughing and said, "What a selfless one, Hongyang, look, Huo Guang is not very old, but his mind is much bigger than yours, you have to study hard. "

Sang Hongyang nodded immediately and said, "I am ashamed."

Thereafter.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che closed his eyes slightly, as if he was closing his eyes to rest his mind, or thinking about something.

After waiting for a while.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che didn't open his eyes, but he asked slowly, "Oh Hongyang, you have been with me for 20 years, right?"

Sang Hongyang quickly replied: "Your Majesty, I have accompanied Your Majesty to study since I was 13 years old. It has indeed been twenty years."

"It's been 20 years!" Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che sighed. I don't know whether he lamented how fast time passed or Sang Hongyang had been buried by his side for 20 years. Then he said, "It's time for you to be promoted. From now on, You should take over the position of Da Nong Ling first!"

"Chen Sang Hongyang, thank you for your majesty's favor!"

When Sang Hongyang heard the words, he burst into tears and fell to the ground.

No idea!

To be among the three lords and the nine nobles, is this the lifelong pursuit of many big men?

the other day.

Sang Hongyang was still at home lamenting that he spends most of his time with His Majesty, and as he grows older day by day, his official career may be hopeless.

Unexpectedly.

Today, he has reached the sky in one step, ranking among the three princes and nine ministers.

This is so exciting.

After a thankful meal, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che chatted with Huo Guang and Sang Hongyang, and then asked them to retreat.

After bidding farewell to the emperor, the two withdrew from the palace.

Huo Guang stepped out of the hall first, so he walked in front.However, before leaving the palace gate, Sang Hongyang chased after him.

Sang Hongyang said politely at this moment: "Huo Yilang walked a lot slower than usual today, is he waiting for me on purpose?"

"Master Sang, ah no, why did Sang Da Nong know what he was asking!" Huo Guang said, and then cupped his hands to Sang Hongyang: "I'm here to congratulate Sang Da Nong first, congratulations for being promoted!"

Sang Hongyang immediately laughed, and said, "Thanks to Huo Yilang's suggestion, otherwise, His Majesty might ignore Sang's existence again."

In terms of seniority, Sang Hongyang followed Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty for more than 20 years.

In terms of intelligence, Sang Hongyang is good at calculating words and interests!
In terms of experience, Sang Hongyang had always assisted the previous Da Nong Ling Yan Yi to carry out His Majesty's policies.

It was appropriate for him to be the Da Nong Order.

only!

Huo Guang proposed Sang Hongyang to be the big farmer, is there really no selfishness?

of course not.

otherwise.

He wouldn't deliberately slow down and wait for Sang Hongyang to catch up.

Looking at Sang Hongyang who was blushing after being promoted, Huo Guang showed a sly smile and said, "Hey, Da Nong Sang, since you also said it, thanks to my suggestion, I became a Da Nong Order. In view of this , then should you give me something in return?"

"Return?" Sang Hongyang frowned slightly, and said, "I can't come up with the second 50 yuan!"

This old man is still struggling with the past 50 money!
Huo Guang then shook his head helplessly, and said, "No, no, what do I want your money for. The return I'm talking about refers to the slag from those ironworks. After you become a large farmer, don't stop me from transporting this thing back."

Of course Sang Hongyang knew about this, and immediately frowned and asked: "Oh, speaking of this, Sang is also curious, what does Huo Yilang want these things for?"

"Hey!" Huo Guang sighed, put on a disappointed look, and said, "Sang Danong, we are all smart people, so why pretend to be confused! Don't you know what I'm going to do? Don't tell me anything else. , the businessman you sent, Tian Jia, probably already told you about the cement!"

When Huo Guang said this.

A surprised expression suddenly appeared on Sang Hongyang's face.

obviously.

It never occurred to him that he even knew about sending Tian Jia to spy on him.

subconsciously.

Sang Hongyang couldn't help frowning, squinted his eyes at Huo Guang and asked, "How did Huo Yilang know that Tian Jia is related to me? Oh, it must be those rangers!"

Question and answer room.

Sang Hongyang immediately thought of the reason.

Ranger today.

Huo Guang has turned it into an organization called Jinyi, which is quite a force.

There is this connection.

Huo Guang can easily grasp any troubles in Chang'an area.

Haoshang Tianjia went to Sang Hongyang's house as a guest in those few days, how could he escape Jinyi's stalking?

Seeing that Sang Hongyang had guessed right.

Huo Guang smiled faintly, and said, "Sang Danong is amazing, he guessed it right. In this case, let's talk about the iron ore slag."

"As it was,"

"The iron ore slag produced by the ironworks every day will continue to be transported away by me."

"Is it okay, Danong Sang?"

However, facing Huo Guang's request, Sang Hongyang shook his head noncommittally, and said, "This is not possible!"
