If Majestic Hero remembered correctly, the man in front of him was his father-in-law, Hua Yongchang, who was also Hua Ningshui's father.
But why was his father-in-law at his house?
As mentioned earlier, Hwa Xiong's wife's family was the owner of a big restaurant in Luoyang. Because Boss Dong burned Luoyang, Hua Yongchang's family was forced to move to Chang 'an and temporarily attached themselves to Hua Xiong's residence.
Majestic Hero quickly walked up and greeted,""This little son-in-law greets father-in-law!"
Majestic Hero's action immediately made Hua Yongchang stop in his tracks. Hua Yongchang was puzzled! When did this son-in-law of his become so polite to him?
Scholars, farmers, merchants, and businessmen were the distinction between noble and humble occupations in ancient times. Especially in this chaotic world, although merchants had wealth, their status was not high. On the contrary, a fierce man like Hwa Xiong was the one who deserved to be conferred the title of Marquis.
Hua Yongchang was also old, he calmed down after a moment of absent-mindedness. He asked Hwa Xiong,"What are you doing? You want to hang them up?"
"Father-in-law doesn't know. These two brats are always causing trouble outside. This is a small punishment! Father-in-law, please don't interfere, lest you interfere with my discipline!”
When Hua Yongchang saw this situation, he knew that he couldn't do anything about it today. However, his heart still ached when he saw his grandson suffer. He could only plead,"Good son-in-law! Even if the two of them were in the wrong, it would be fine if they reprimanded them. Wouldn't such a heavy punishment damage his body?”
"Don't worry, father-in-law!" Majestic Hero smiled. I know my own son best. These two brats are in good health! By the way, I just returned home yesterday and haven't met father-in-law yet. Please forgive me! Father-in-law, please. Let's go to the backyard and talk!”
"This-"
Hua Yongchang looked at Hua Wenhua and Hua Wu, then looked at Majestic Hero's harmless smile. He knew that he could not save his grandson.
He could only sigh and walk to the backyard with Majestic Hero.
Along the way, Hua Yongchang glanced at Majestic Hero in confusion."Son-in-law seems to have changed a little this time. His attitude towards me is obviously much better! He even shaved his beard! Could it be that he had really changed as his daughter had said?”
After the two of them entered the back hall and sat down, Majestic Hero ordered tea to be served. Then, Majestic Hero began to ask about Hua Yongchang's situation in Luoyang.
Although Hua Yongchang felt that it was strange, he could not figure out what Majestic Hero was up to at the moment. He could only tell Majestic Hero everything.
It all started with the burning of Luoyang. This historic event was not as simple as Majestic Hero had imagined. In order to prevent the allied forces from plundering Luoyang, Dong Zhuo brought millions of Luoyang citizens to Chang 'an while burning Luoyang.
The consequences of Dong Zhuo's actions were very serious. Tens of thousands of people lost their homes, and most of their wealth was plundered by the imperial army.
These people who had lost their homes and money flooded into Chang 'an, but no one cared about their safety.
Even if these people had to sleep on the streets, they could not do so because the army in Chang 'an did not allow them to. They could only gather in the most barren places in Chang' an and use their meager ability to do the most lowly work.
Only those rich merchants who had already received the news or were involved with the government were spared from the disaster. They could safely take their savings and settle in Chang 'an.
Hua Yongchang was one of them.
When he received the news that Luoyang was on fire, he immediately left his restaurant and went to Hua Xiong's house with his two sons and family savings. He arrived in Chang 'an safely as an official's relative.
Majestic Hero nodded after hearing Hua Yongchang's words, thinking,"Although Chang 'an has no external threats, it has serious internal problems." There was a shortage of supplies, and the people were in dire straits due to the rise in prices.
But on the other hand, all this might be an opportunity for Hero Hua. Majestic Hero pondered for a moment and asked,""Then I wonder what Father-in-law plans to do next?”
As a businessman, Hua Yongchang indeed had his own plans. However, at this moment, he was hesitating whether he should say it or not.
Hua Yongchang, who had lost his business, only had many years of savings. Although it was enough for him to make a comeback in Chang 'an and open a restaurant, it was not something that could be solved by money alone.
As the saying went, people were unfamiliar with the place. Hua Yongchang would never dare to open a restaurant rashly without understanding the situation in Chang 'an. The first thing he thought of was to ask his son-in-law, who was an official, for help. However, his son-in-law had always looked down on businessmen. If he said it was useless, he might as well not say it!
Majestic Hero took a sip of tea and waited for Hua Yongchang's reply. He was analyzing the situation in Chang 'an.
Sigh, although he knew the history of the Three Kingdoms, he was unable to stir up any waves in it. Instead, he was forced into a state of confusion by the environment and people here step by step. Now that he thought about it, he was lucky to be alive until now. That was because he had not become the focus of all parties.
"I'm just an ordinary person! It's too difficult for me to overthrow the three kingdoms. I'll see if father-in-law can help me with my business!”
While Majestic Hero was lamenting, he was also anxious about Hua Yongchang's hesitation." Tell me, I'm your son-in-law. Do you have any business secrets about me?!"”
At that moment, footsteps could be heard from outside the hall. Majestic Hero and Hua Yongchang looked at the door in unison.
Hua Ningshui walked in wearing a purple dress. She was stunned when she saw Majestic Hero and Hua Yongchang. She had heard from the servant that the old master had shaved his beard, so she had specially rushed over to take a look.
She did not expect Hua Yongchang to be here as well. She could only bow and say,"Greetings, father and husband! Husband, father came to Chang 'an with me, and I didn't have time to tell you yesterday. Please don't blame me!”
Majestic Hero stared at Hua Ningshui.
At this moment, Hua Ningshui was even more beautiful than yesterday. Her tender and smooth face was slightly flushed, making people want to kiss her. Her bright eyes seemed to have a seductive charm, emitting an intoxicating and hazy color.
Hua Yongchang nodded slightly and looked at Majestic Hero. He wanted to see how Majestic Hero was treating his daughter.
Majestic Hero praised in his heart,'Women really need to be nourished by love.' He said,""What are you talking about? What's wrong with that? Father-in-law is like my father. It's only right for him to stay! Come, sit down first! Really, why do I feel that you're prettier than yesterday!”
When Hua Ningshui heard this, her pink face turned even redder. She gave Majestic Hero a reproachful look and said," Daddy is here. What nonsense are you talking about?!"”
When Hua Yongchang saw this situation, he secretly nodded. A family was always a family! It was no big deal to say it out loud.
The hesitation in his heart disappeared in an instant. Hua Yongchang said,"Virtuous son-in-law, I want to reopen a restaurant in Chang 'an, but there are some places that I might need your help with."
When Majestic Hero heard this, he was delighted and secretly sighed at his good character!
Although he was happy, Majestic Hero had a thoughtful expression on his face. He said,""Father-in-law, please elaborate! I've been interested in doing business recently.”
Majestic Hero's words shocked Hua Yongchang and Hua Ningshui.
Majestic Hero, who had always only known how to fight wars and looked down on merchants, was interested in doing business. This was something that surprised the two of them.
In the eyes of merchants, most officials would ask merchants for things they wanted.
Hua Yongchang looked at Majestic Hero in disbelief. He could not see the man in front of him.
"Husband, you mean you want to do business too?" Hua Ningshui asked tentatively.”
"Ah! That's right! What was the problem? Why are you looking at me like that?"
Majestic Hero noticed that their expressions were not normal, and he could not help but touch his own face.
"N-nothing!" Hua Ningshui said.
Majestic Hero asked Hua Yongchang to continue.
"With the help of my son-in-law status, I was able to safely arrive in Chang 'an with my two sons and family savings. However, without all the businesses in Luoyang, we also lost a lot of relationships. If he wanted to reopen a restaurant in Chang 'an, he would have to pay more money to the officials of Chang' an. But even so, with the current complicated situation in Chang 'an, he was afraid that he would not be properly taken care of. Therefore, I would like to ask your son-in-law to help me, firstly to save some money, and secondly to ensure peace in the future.”
When Majestic Hero heard this, he immediately understood that he wanted to protect both the legal and illegal sides! Why make it so complicated?
