Yang Hao rolled his eyes. What magical treasure? Even he himself was surprised to meet this old man. How could such a coincidental thing happen again if he missed it, let alone find another one for his father?
For a moment, Yang Hao couldn't help but look at the old man curiously.""Old man, what does your family do?”
Li Yuan's heart skipped a beat. He only wanted to ask Yang Hao for help, but he didn't think about how to answer this question when it came. He muttered,
"My family…"
"Hmm…"
"It's that kind, do you understand?"
Yang Hao was shocked. Not only was he shocked, but his father, Yang Jingming, who was sitting next to him, was also shocked. Who could understand what you were saying?
The old man's face turned red. He thought to himself, how should I answer this question? Could it be that I don't want to do business with the world because the world belongs to my family? Wouldn't that scare Yang Hao and his son? They wouldn't be able to chat with Yang Hao in the future.
He couldn't reveal his identity for the time being!
He had to pretend!
Now was not the time to lay their cards on the table!
"Old man, your family doesn't have a salt and iron business, right?" Yang Hao suddenly smiled.”
The old man's eyes lit up. He could not wait for someone to give him a way out. When he heard this, he quickly nodded and said,"Yes, this is it!"
Yang Hao stared at the old man in front of him. I was just casually saying. Are you really doing this? Who was Meng Te?
Yang Jingming glanced at Yang Hao, then at the old man. Finally, he turned his head nervously and whispered to Yang Hao,"
"Yang Hao, I heard that selling salt and iron is a major crime. If the imperial court catches you, the salt smuggler will be beheaded, and all those related to him will be punished. In my opinion, we shouldn't eat this meal for now.”
The old man was speechless.
Yang Hao said angrily," Dad, which salt and iron seller doesn't eat a lot? Look at the three wrinkles on this old man's head. It's obvious that he works hard. He doesn't look like someone who does such a big thing. He's bluffing us!"”
Yang Jingming looked at the old man suspiciously. He was still a little worried. After all, it was better to be safe than sorry. He wasn't afraid of being scammed. He couldn't let this old man scammed Yang Hao. He only had one precious son.
"Jing Ming! Are you at home?"
Suddenly, a strong male voice sounded from outside the door.
"It's Chang 'an Magistrate Yang Zuan!" Yang Jingming's eyes lit up. He quickly got up and walked out. He was glad that he had come at the right time. If that old man was really in the salt and iron business, Yang Zuan, as the magistrate of Chang 'an, would definitely know him!
Yang Hao also got up curiously and followed him out, leaving the old man sitting there alone with his heart thumping once again.
Chang 'an Magistrate Yang Zuan?
Wasn't this Yang Xuqing, whom he had met once a few years ago and then promoted to Imperial Censor, who had just become Chang 'an Magistrate this year?
At this moment, Yang Hao followed his father to the door and saw a middle-aged man wearing a brocade robe and a bun. He was waiting outside the door with a kind smile.
Beside him was a young man with a big belly.
Yang Jingming quickly bowed and smiled." The flowers are suspicious of the night, and the four lights are like spring. I've finally waited for the Chang 'an order to come. Please come in!"”
"Scholars talk differently.”Yang Zuan smiled and nodded." I like dealing with people like you. This is your son?”
"Greetings, Uncle Yang." Yang Hao smiled and bowed slightly.”
"The way you address me as uncle is pleasant to the ears." Yang Zuan laughed and patted Yang Hao's shoulder."" You are the same age as my son, so you should call me uncle. If you need uncle in the future, just send someone to tell me. I can't speak in other places, but in Chang 'an County, there are still people who have to listen to me!”
Yang Hao smiled and nodded, but he did not mind.
These words sounded nice, but the word "police" had already made his meaning clear. After all, who could send someone to report his family background?
"Uncle, why are you talking so much to them?”
At this moment, the fat young man standing next to Yang Zuan wiped the sweat from his forehead and said impatiently,"
"You're just giving them too much face. They're just two poor father and son. Can't you just give them some benefits? Was it worth it to drag his nephew over? Didn't they already agree to buy new tools for their families? They were the ones who were worth it!”
New tools for abandoned fields?
Yang Hao's eyes narrowed. No wonder his father's words felt strange. He was just teaching the son of a county magistrate. Was he worth Yang Zuan's attention? So this was the problem. He was targeting his family's land!
The smile on Yang Jingming's face also disappeared. He looked at the fat young man and then at Yang Zuan, who looked a little embarrassed, and said seriously,""County Magistrate Yang, what do you mean? What do you mean by exchanging new tools for abandoned fields?"
Yang Zuan stammered, unable to speak for a long time.
The fat youth beside him became even more impatient and shouted,
"Can't you understand the simple meaning of replacing abandoned fields with new tools?”
"To think that you're still a scholar. Where did your books go? Didn't my uncle tell you yesterday that he wanted to buy new furniture for your house? Do you know Hu Deng? Do you have any good wood at home? Was there a screen? Is there a wooden cabinet? To think that you still have the nerve to call yourself a scholar. Why can't I find any of these things that scholars use in your house? I'll give you a chance now. You won't lose out if you exchange that piece of abandoned land behind your family!”
When Yang Jingming heard this, his lips trembled in anger. He turned his head to look at Yang Zuan again, but he saw that Yang Zuan had his head lowered and was silent. He felt angry and said,
"The Book of Rites. Tan Gong says,"I will not eat the food given to me by others, so that this is the case." Back then, even a beggar had such a backbone. He would rather starve to death than accept charity from others. I, Yang Jingming, have it too!”
The fat young man sneered." Oh, I didn't know. You're almost a starving dog, yet you still say such words. It doesn't matter if you starve to death, but what if your puppy starved to death? Even if you don't think about yourself, you should think about your son…"
Phew--
Before he could finish his sentence, a gust of wind suddenly blew. The fat young man's eyes widened as he saw a hand holding a stone approaching from afar. He quickly wanted to dodge it subconsciously, but he suddenly felt a pain in his crotch. He could not help but scream and bend over.
"Ah!"
Yang Hao's face was cold. After a kick to the groin, he saw the fat young man scream and bend over. He raised his hand that was holding the stone and smashed it heavily on the fat young man's head!
