Chapter 135 as high-profile as possible
As the name suggests, the West Garden is a garden located in the west of Luoyang City. It was originally the garrison of the imperial guards. However, after Liu Hong ascended the throne, military affairs were abandoned. Not to mention the full sect of the imperial guards, even half of them had never been there.
The terrain here is flat and suitable for horse racing, so Liu Hong regards most of the places as his horse racing club and often plays here.
After Huo Hai and his group entered the West Garden, they instantly became the focus of the place. There were no reason. There were many Han soldiers who returned after being cured by them last year.
When the savior comes, he will naturally welcome him.
Of course, more people came to watch the fun under the leadership of their own generals.
I have long heard that the Rising Wind Cavalry in Heishan Village is the strongest cavalry in the world. In addition to seeing the style of Rising Wind Cavalry, they also have to look at the equipment of Rising Wind Cavalry. A little learning can also improve their own combat power a lot, although the imperial court does not have a built-in cavalry unit for the time being.
Therefore, it caused the scene of Huo Hai and his group of people entering the West Park, and tens of thousands of imperial guards in Luoyang crossing the road to greet each other.
Liu Hong has not yet established the eight lieutenants of Xiyuan to distribute He Jin's military power, so in a sense, this place is still He Jin's territory. The situation here is soon reported to He Jin.
"Hmph, it's just a bunch of bandits who can't get on the table. When you arrive in Luoyang, it's not their turn to be awesome. He will come to the mansion to meet him tomorrow and set him a last seat for him to put him in the right position." He Jin told his aide.
"promise."
After the staff retreated, Yuan Shao, who had held a meeting in the family, asked to see him again. After a while, He Jinzhun met, Yuan Shao brought more than a dozen waiters into the hall of the general's mansion.
"What's the point in this at first?" He Jin pointed to the waiter holding the tray behind Yuan Shao and said.
"Some good things are to be presented to the general." Yuan Shao smiled.
Seeing that Yuan Shao was here to give gifts? He Jin's face suddenly improved a lot. He waved, "Come on it!"
Soon? More than a dozen waiters behind Yuan Shao lined up? Waiting for He Jin to check before the case, Yuan Shao pointed to the first tray. "This is the latest white paper produced in Heishan Village, as white as snow? It is most suitable for writing and painting."
"Is it white paper? A few days ago? Someone has already given a lot of them, so it's not a good thing." He Jin said with a slightly disappointed expression on his face after looking at the first thing close by.
"It's not expensive. Now the one on the market in Luoyang is only ten yuan? The one that I sent here is only two hundred pieces of paper? It's only two thousand yuan. However, there is very little white paper on the market, and even if you have money, it's hard to buy more. The general is worried that the general will give more orders on weekdays? The cost is too high, so he specially bought some more to deliver it. In case of emergency needs. If Heishan Village can transport more white paper to Luoyang every time, the general will not worry about it." Yuan Shao explained to He Jin.
Hearing this, He Jin frowned and asked, "I heard that hundreds of cars of white paper are transported to the city for sale every month? Can they be sold out every month?"
"Just a hundred cars? Why do you need a month? They will sell them all in three days at most. After all, each car is only 10,000." Yuan Shao continued.
"What? You said there are ten thousand pieces of white paper in a car? Isn't that worth 100,000 yuan?" He Jin said in a daze.
"Yes!" Yuan Shao nodded and confirmed.
"Isn't that more than one hundred cars more than one million yuan? And it's every month?" He Jin said again.
Yuan Shao seemed to know that the number was relatively large at this time, so he nodded again, "It's indeed a lot."
At this time, regardless of Yuan Shao's words, He Jin's eyes began to turn around. He was a butcher who sold meat. How could he not know that doing business is for profit. Heishanzhai could earn at least millions of dollars a month for tens of millions of dollars.
Yuan Shao deliberately did not take his psychological activities into consideration, but asked the second person to bring it to the tray, which was placed on it with a sweater with a soft and comfortable texture.
"This white sweater is also recently produced by Heishan Village. It is soft, comfortable and warm. Just put on one piece of underwear and put on a robe and armor on the outside. Even if you walk in the wind and snow, you won't feel cold. By the way, there are pants that can keep your legs warm and also facilitate horse riding.
However, there are few for sale on the market in Luoyang now, and one set is priced at least 3,000 yuan. The last general also asked his friend from Yecheng to get a few sets. He specially chose the one with the best coat color and pattern and presented it to the general."
Yuan Shao unfolded the sweater, and the ball dragon pattern that was different from this era was displayed. Compared with ordinary sweaters without patterns, this is indeed a high-end product.
"A piece of clothing made of wool, three thousand yuan?" He Jin looked at Yuan Shao in disbelief.
Nowadays, clothes made of silk are probably the only price.
"Yes, and even if you have money, you can't buy it, because it is indeed the warmest clothes on the market at present, and no other clothes can match it." Yuan Shao nodded and confirmed.
Before cotton was planted in large quantities in the Central Plains, what clothes could compare to the warmth of clothes made of this defatted wool?
Of course, there is another type, which is the down jacket that Heishanzhai is currently researching. However, if you want to see the finished product, you may wait next year or the year after.
"What else can I bring it up together." He Jin, whose eyes were slightly red, waved.
At his core, he was still a pork vendor. It would be strange if he didn't jealous when he saw such a huge profit.
Yuan Shao knew that his purpose had been achieved, so he clapped his palms. Soon, more than a dozen servants lined up in front of He Jin. He saw at a glance that there was a glazed product as big as a head in one of the trays. Although it was not as big as that in the palace, its carvings were far superior to those of them.
It was a glass tiger with a patterned fur color that was almost the same as the real tiger's body. It was placed on the table and looked from a distance, just like a living tiger looking at him.
The thing that the general gave orders was the tiger talisman. There was no reason why he didn't love tigers. It was just such a thing. Even if it was worth a million yuan, He Jin was willing to pay for it.
Sure enough, Yuan Shao spoke, "This thing is amazing, worth three million yuan! There is also a glass tiger exactly the same size as the real tiger in Heishan Village. Unfortunately, the price is too high, and even if my Yuan family wants to buy it, it will be a bit difficult."
"How much do they want?" He Jindao, who was breathing heavily.
There is a glass fish in front of it, now there is a glass tiger, and there is a large glass tiger. If Heishanzhai had not mastered the technique of firing this kind of glass, He Jin would not believe it even if he died.
Once you have a craft that can be sold for millions or tens of millions of dollars like this, wouldn’t Heishan Village make a fortune?
"Little tiger has three million yuan, big tiger has three million yuan." Yuan Shao deliberately compared three fingers and said in an exaggerated voice.
What does it mean to have 30 million yuan? The prefect who buys two thousand stones can buy three.
Of course, they didn't know that Huo Hai also prepared something more coquettish to ask Guo Tu for official position. It was a glass Chinese dragon with a length of ten feet and a variety of bright colors.
Not to mention this thing, even in this era, it is a handicraft worth thousands of yuan. It was made by Ge Xuan and a group of craftsmen based on Huo Hai's requirements and took a lot of effort.
I believe that once this thing comes out, no matter how much resistance there is in the court, it will not stop Liu Hong from giving Huo Hai a large reward.
As for the mirrors, bottles and other things in other trays, He Jin doesn’t need to look closely, and he knows that they are valuable, and they all come from Heishan Village.
"Huo Zhe has so many treasures, which is very easy to make money and win people's hearts. If this continues, it will definitely lead to a national harm and it must be eliminated early." He Jin looked at everything and looked at Yuan Shao with murderous intent.
Cai Jin was moved. He Jin originally wanted to give Huo Hai a warning and hit the eunuch behind him. Now, he really had a murderous intention, and Yuan Shao was ate him so hard that he was eaten by him.
"The general is right, and Shao Zheng has this intention. However, there are three million people in Heishan Village and some outliers who help the Huo thief, so it is not that easy to kill." Yuan Shao said with a embarrassed expression.
"Did you forget that this is Luoyang? Here is a dragon, and it has to be trampled on me." He Jin gritted his teeth.
"But he is a meritorious minister whom His Majesty has just awarded him. If the general acts rashly, he will be afraid that he will harm His Majesty and make the situation more passive." Huo Hai is so wise and wise. Yuan Shao doesn't want to see He Jin do it blindly. It would be bad if he ruined his plan to cause him and the eunuch group to suffer both losses.
"What did you think I should do at first?" He Jin frowned and asked Yuan Shao.
Yuan Shao waved his hand, and all the waiters who came into the house to deliver things retreated. He himself talked with He Jinmi in this hall at dusk before he got up and left.
When Yuan Shao and He Jin were having a secret conversation, Huo Hai and Cao Cao were naturally not idle either. They first ate a meal with good wine and meat, and then started talking about the situation in Luoyang.
Zhu Jun retired, Lu Zhi returned to his hometown to teach, Huangfu Song was also entrusted with a false position as a general of chariot and cavalry. The military departments of the Sili Department are now in the hands of He Jin alone. The soldiers and horses of all states in the world are basically transferred by He Jin.
If Huo Hai had such a good name, he could even change the dynasty directly, or offer the emperor as a decoration, and he would be regent and be in power.
This is also why one or two years later, Liu Hong would try his best to divide the military power in He Jin's hands and set up the eight captains of Xiyuan.
As for the fact that he and the eunuch group fought for local personnel power with one punch and one kick, Huo Hai was actually not very interested. Most of these local officials were idiots and had no use at critical moments.
Huo Hai was only interested in the powerful people and strangers in Luoyang.
For example, what is the situation of Wang Yue, who is known as the Sword God, and whether he can visit him.
For example, where is Cai Yong and Cai Boyi's mansion? What disciples are currently there under his disciples, etc.
Cao Cao, who had been the commander of the northern Luoyang, naturally knew these things well and told them one by one. He also promised to help Huo Hai introduce them. Anyway, Liu Hong would not hold a court meeting until the first day of the second month. Huo Hai still had several days to search for talents and make friends in Luoyang.
At night, after the banquet, Huo Hai asked Guo Tu, Tian Feng, Chu Yan and Zhao Yun to enter their exclusive barracks and began to arrange tasks for everyone.
Of course, when they arrived, there was already another person in the room, Zuo Ci, who had arrived one step earlier in the crane.
"Before leaving, I tell you that we are here to pretend to be Boyi this time, so from tomorrow on, the tone of our actions is to be as high-profile as possible.
Because, in the eyes of those court officials who know the truth, we are all rebels who have just surrendered and cannot be on the table. Only when we show a certain strength can they look at us directly.
Only in this way can they bet in our Heishanzhai and get more support from people. Our big ship will be more stable when it moves forward. After all, our opponents are not ordinary people." Huo Hai reminded everyone.
"I'm afraid from tomorrow on, you can't be too high-profile!" Zuo Ci smiled at Huo Haidao with a smile.
