Chapter 645: Extravagance
Zhao Hu directly waved his hand and said: "Frugality is not suitable for me. You don't need to mention it again. My life is only a few decades long. Why should I wrong myself? It's okay if I don't have money. I am rich. If I make money, I will It’s for flowers, otherwise what would you do with it?”
He said: "Just like your grandfather, he has been frugal all his life, but the money he saved ended up being advantageous to you and Zhao Zhongyu."
"If you had spent the money on yourself and Erlang, he would not have lost any money he saved. But you used it to raise soldiers and rescue refugees. They were all strangers and ate up all the money he saved one by one. , if he knew, he might be very angry."
Zhao Hanzhang: "...I think my grandfather will be happy if he finds out, right?"
The money was originally saved for the Zhao family, and she used it to raise soldiers for the Zhao family.
But Zhao Hu didn't think so. He used himself to save others and snorted loudly: "I'm so happy. If Zhao Cheng dares to give my money to irrelevant people after I die, I will be so angry that I jump out of the coffin." Come out and settle the score with him!"
Zhao Hu paused and then said: "But he really might do that, so I can't leave him too much money. I have to spend it. The more I spend, the better, so that there will be less money left."
Zhao Hanzhang was speechless.
After a while, she said with some ulterior emotions: "Then spend it. It's best to spend it in front of Uncle Cheng."
Zhao Hu also wanted to use money to annoy his son, but he actually left immediately and took his grandson to such a dangerous front line. He couldn't forgive him easily no matter what.
He asked Zhao Hanzhang: "Where can I spend money in Luoyang?"
Zhao Hanzhang was secretly happy in his heart, but his face was calm, and he suggested seriously: "A house shop?"
Zhao Hu frowned. He didn't really want to buy property in Luoyang. If there was peace in the past, he would have loved it. But now that the Luoyang faction is withering, not even the emperor is here anymore, and he may start a fight with the Huns at any time, so he doesn't want it. Buying property here.
Zhao Hanzhang looked unforced and smiled and said: "It's fine if the seventh uncle doesn't like it. I was thinking that His Majesty would move the capital to Yuncheng. The eyes of the world will be fixed on Yuncheng. Now Luoyang is in depression, but in a few days There will always be a counterattack in the year of Jin Dynasty. If we can regain control of the world at that time, Your Majesty will definitely move the capital back. After all, Luoyang is the best in the world, and it has natural dangers, making it more suitable to be the capital than any other place. "
Zhao Hu pondered, hesitating a little, and asked: "Are shops and houses in Luoyang expensive now?"
Zhao Hanzhang said cheerfully: "It's not expensive, just like cabbage."
Zhao Hu looked at her suspiciously.
"Really, I don't know the specific price. If the seventh uncle is interested, I will ask Yaren to come over later," Zhao Hanzhang said generously: "No matter which houses or shops the seventh uncle likes, I will take a small discount on the price." become."
"10%? This is too stingy," Zhao Hu counterattacked directly: "30%!"
Zhao Hanzhang: "...Seventh Uncle, please go and ask about the current housing prices in Luoyang and the previous housing prices. If it is 30% less, this house is almost like giving it away for free."
"You can't sell it, and which shops are yours?" Zhao Hu said: "You have taken them all by force. You can earn money by selling one set. Otherwise, you will just get a few rubbish shops in your hands. Not only will you not be able to make money, If you get money, it will get worse if you keep it.”
The two parties bargained for a while and finally succeeded in closing the deal at a price that was 20% cheaper.
It was difficult for Zhao Hu to win, but he was very happy. He was even happier than Zhao Hanzhang before when he agreed to the ratio of his old money to new money. He felt that he had taken a big advantage.
Seeing that he was happy, Zhao Hanzhang silently shook his head.
If it wasn't for his happiness, I could actually give him 30%.
What Zhao Hanzhang lacks now is the money to sell his shop and house?
No, what she lacks is people who can open the shop and the goods to put in the shop.
Zhao Hu negotiated the price first, and then decided whether to buy it or not.
After all the important matters were agreed upon, Zhao Hu served the guests tea and said, "Where is your big kitchen? Let me ask my servant to fetch hot water."
Zhao Hanzhang immediately stood up and left, "I'll make arrangements right now. Uncle Seventh has been tired all the way, so let's rest first. When Uncle Cheng and the others come back, we'll have dinner together."
Zhao Hu snorted and agreed.
As soon as Zhao Hanzhang left, he took a bath, washed his hair, and asked his maid to trim his beard. Then he leaned on the couch and squinted for a while. When he woke up and heard that his son and grandson were back, he carefully selected the clothes he was going to wear and wiped them. Fragrant powder, handsome and fragrant, just lift your feet and go out.
As soon as he stepped out of the door, he couldn't help but frown. He thought of Zhao Hanzhang's coarse cloth clothes, and a flash of disgust flashed in his eyes. He called him to follow him and said: "Open the box to find some brightly colored fabrics. Sanniang is out now." Are you filial?"
The person who followed him counted with his fingers and said quickly: "Young man, it's a filial piety."
"Then give her the fabric, find two pieces of fabric suitable for men, and give one to Tinghan and Erlang. It would be a waste of their great years not to dress up, especially their faces."
He agreed with a smile, turned around and went to look for some fabrics.
Zhao Hu brought some things with him when he came from Xiping, especially since he wanted to see his son and grandson, so he brought a lot of good things, so he came out with an armful of cloth after a while.
Zhao Hu raised his chin and went to see his son and grandson calmly.
There were many people sitting in the hall. Zhao Hanzhang was listening to Zhao Kuan's report. Zhao Cheng sat aside and interjected a few words from time to time. Even Zhao Zheng, who was still young, could give some suggestions. As soon as Zhao Hu came, The tone of the conversation immediately changed.
Zhao Kuan and other cousins saluted Zhao Hu, "Seventh uncle\uncle."
Zhao Hu's eyes first glanced at his son and grandson, and then fell on Zhao Hanzhang. He saw that she had changed into a set of clothes, but they were still just fine linen.
He frowned, asked his attendants to bring up the fabrics, and said: "These are for you to make clothes for, Sanniang, you are a daughter of a noble family. Even if you insist on being frugal, you can't be too rough."
He said seriously: "This is bad manners and indecent."
Zhao Hanzhang: ...Why did she molest her?
Unexpectedly, Zhao Cheng, who had always been opposed to Zhao Hu, actually nodded.
Zhao Hanzhang felt very tired and explained: "Seventh Uncle, I wear burlap clothes because I have to train soldiers. Today I planned to see the construction of a water mill. Maybe I will have to help. The clothes are light and stain-resistant, but they are broken. I don’t feel bad about it anymore, I can sew it up and wear it again.”
Zhao Hu's eyes widened, and the fairy spirit he pretended to be in front of his son immediately dissipated, "You actually want to wear patched linen clothes?"
Zhao Hanzhang also looked at him heartbrokenly, "Seventh Uncle, if you don't want to be like Emperor Hui, why don't you eat minced meat? Although the cloth is coarse, the clothes are really good."
Zhao Hanzhang expressed again: "I have no money."
"Your grandfather left you so much money..."
Zhao Hanzhang: "Flower!"
