Chapter 159 Chatting (Please subscribe and reward)

"Bang bang bang ~ lord, bang bang ~ lord!"

Huo Shan buried his head in the quilt and waited for a while, but before Sun left, Huo Shan clenched his fists, lifted the quilt and shouted towards the door:
"You are going to die, can you let me sleep well!"

Sun Shang touched his nose outside the door, feeling a little embarrassed.

"My lord, the general has been waiting for quite a while."

"Okay, I got it, get out!" Huo Shan cursed impatiently.

But how well Sun Shang knew Huo Shan, he could guarantee that Huo Shan would fall asleep again after he left.

"Bang, bang, my lord, get up quickly, bang, bang, my lord, get up quickly..."

Huo Shan clenched his fists, lifted the quilt, picked up the lancet and looked around, then covered himself in the quilt and drew out the knife.

This was to prevent Sun Shang from hearing it. He had just returned from the battlefield, and he was definitely very sensitive to the sound of the sword being unsheathed and the bow and crossbow being wound.

Then Huo Shan picked up the scabbard and tiptoed to the door.

When Sun Shang finished yelling and was about to knock on the door, Huo Shan immediately opened the door, and Sun Shang stumbled in.

Huo Shan picked up the scabbard and pumped it on Sun Shang's buttocks, gnashing his teeth while pumping it back:
"I asked you... slap... to disturb my sleep, I... slap... finally... slap... sleep well, slap, I haven't had a good night's sleep for months..."

Sun Shang bent down and covered his buttocks with his arms, and ran out quickly, not daring to cover it with his hands, which hurt even more.

Huo Shan stood by the door, looked angrily at Sun Shang who ran away, and looked at his bare feet:

"Come back to me!"

Sun Shang stood in the distance and shook his head repeatedly.

After such an encounter, Huo Shan was already awake, and couldn't fall asleep anymore, turned around and walked into the house, shouting as he walked:

"Wash up."

.........

After Huo Shan took a long time to wash up, half an hour had passed.

Then came to the front hall, where he now lives in Wei Qing's small courtyard.

As soon as he entered the front hall, he saw Wei Qing drinking tea.

"Granduncle."

After a salute, Huo Shan sat down opposite Wei Qing, poured himself a glass like flowing water, picked it up, sniffed it, and put it down.

"It's still the tea I sent you, uncle and grandpa, you don't know how to change it."

Wei Qing smiled and stroked his beard:

"The fragrance of tea from Zihou, after drinking Zihou's tea, I can't drink anything else!"

Huo Shan glanced at the lounge chair by the door and said:

"My uncle has good tea. I told him several places that produce good tea, but he just kept it from you!"

Wei Qing immediately regained his spirits:
"Zihou's words are serious?"

"That's natural."

Wei Qing nodded, squinted his eyes and stroked his beard, thinking about how to get a little out of Liu Che.

"Uncle, I'm going back to Chang'an tomorrow, do you want to come together?"

Wei Qing's eyebrows twitched:
"Come back tomorrow?"

Huo Shan nodded.

"I'm going to make some arrangements today and return directly tomorrow."

Wei Qing thought for a moment, then nodded:
"Okay, you go back first, you are too fast, my old bones can't keep up, I will stay for a while, and I will go back when the Huns bring the rest of the things, you leave me two sets of you. flag."

Wei Qing couldn't help sighing when he said this, he really didn't expect that Huo Tan would want so many things.

"Your battle, the scourge plus compensation, almost emptied half of the Huns."

Huo Shan chuckled, and then said:

"It's almost half of it. The Huns are definitely in pain. It won't be relieved in ten years, but in terms of injuries, it's not that big."

Wei Qing smiled and shook his head, sighed and said:
"Oh, it's already pretty good, you're much better than me and Qu Bing'er.

Qubing'er fought hard and spent a lot of money, so I'm better off.

You not only do not spend, but also earn, not a small profit, but a big profit, we are not as good as you. "

Huo Shan was a little embarrassed to be praised.

"By the way, what do you think of the Western Regions?"

"Western Region?"

Huo Shan showed surprise on his face: "Can't we fight this year?"

"It's the middle of June now, and it will be July when I return to Chang'an. It will take at least two or three months to prepare. By then, it will be September and October. I will march on the road until the Western Regions have entered winter. What's the deal? ?”

Wei Qing also nodded:
"It's true that we won't be able to fight this year. As far as I know, the caravan from the Shaofu is already rushing back. If we want to fight, we will fight next year, but..."

Huo Shan narrowed his eyes, waiting for Wei Qing's next words.

"However, someone wants to compete with you for a job in the Western Regions!"

After Wei Qing finished speaking, he looked at Huo Shan with a smile.

And Huo Shan instantly relaxed, he thought it was a big deal.

Huo Shan scratched his neck, and finally couldn't hold back and asked:

"Granduncle, which family does it belong to?"

Wei Qing took a sip of tea and said lightly:

"Longyou, Beidi, Weihuo and so on basically have them."

Huo Shan immediately rolled his eyes, this is not grabbing an errand, this is obviously a drunkard's intention to drink.

It was obvious that they wanted to grab his position, but in fact their purpose was definitely to grab the qualification to follow Huo Shan.

Huo Shan just said, apart from him, it is impossible to use anyone else to fight the Western Regions.

Don't talk about the relationship between Hexi and the Western Regions and his Huo family, just talk about Huo Shan's current prestige, they can take it away?

Not to mention Liu Che.

"Uncle, don't worry, my uncle will definitely keep it for me. He can't give this job to others!"

Wei Qing nodded and said jokingly:

"Well, I just want to tell you that I want you to be prepared. When you return to Chang'an, I'm afraid that the threshold of your Huo Mansion will be trampled to pieces."

Huo Shan waved his hands carelessly:

"It's okay, don't be afraid, there are children from their families in my Habayashi Army, they won't talk to me, they will only go to my uncle.

Moreover, if it bothers me, I will stay in the palace or the barracks, and I will let them come and find it. "

Wei Qing nodded to Huo Shan, dumbfounded:

"You ah you!"

The two chatted for a few more words, Wei Qing stood up, and Huo Shan also stood up.

"You are busy with your work, and the officials of your young mansion are waiting, I will go and see the Habayashi Army and those envoys!"

The Habayashi Army and the Xiongnu envoys were all in the barracks more than ten miles away from the south gate of Yunzhong City.

Huo Shan wanted to return to Chang'an, but the Huns couldn't let the Huns know about this news. If they knew, what would they do if they didn't give the compensation later!
So for the sake of leaving Yunzhong, and for the envoys to leak the news, they are all in the military camp outside the city.

The military barracks is an important place, so it is not allowed to investigate, so after Huo Shan leaves, arrange some people to live in it.

As long as Huo Shan's championship flag stands in Yunzhong City, it means that Huo Shan has never left.

In the land of my big man, it is not easy to hide the whereabouts of the Xiongnu.

.........

"Sun Shang."

After Wei Qing left, Huo Shan yelled, and then pointed to the lounge chair by the door in the hall.

Sun Shang immediately moved the deck chair to a cool place under the eaves.

In mid-June, when the weather was hot, Huo Shan didn't have any idea of ​​basking in the sun.

Huo Shan was lying on the recliner with a cattail fan, looking at Cang Ye who ran over and lay at his feet hot with tongue sticking out, Huo Shan patted his head with the fan.

"Go find Xiao Hei!"

Cang Ye turned around and left, he naturally knew where Xiao Hei was.

Well, where else is the freezer.

Huo Shan swayed here leisurely for a while, and after a while, people from the Shaofu came.

"Chen Shenning pays homage to the little prince!"

"It's you who came this time, sit down, Sun Shang, move a stool!"

After Shen Ning sat down, he began to respond to Huo Shan's words with a smile:
"Back to Xiaojunhou, this opportunity is something I managed to grab!"

Huo Shan looked at his aging face:

"You are over 50 this year. Isn't it good to take care of yourself at home? You have to run around!"

Shen Ning smiled and said nothing, he also wants to retire!

In the final analysis, it was for his children and grandchildren. After his death, his children and grandchildren would naturally enter the Shaofu. Now he is helping Huo Shan with some things. After he leaves, Huo Shan will remember his affection and protect him a little bit.

He is already 52 this year, and he won't be alive for a few years, so what he seeks is different from Wang Wei's.

Wang Wei is begging for himself, he is begging for his children and grandchildren.

"I don't know what the little prince needs to arrange?"

Huo Shan thought for a while and asked:

"These cattle and sheep are under the jurisdiction of the Shaofu?"

Shen Ning nodded:
"Yes!"

Huo Shan nodded, and then said:

"You should understand that the 40 cattle, sheep and horses of the Xiongnu Rebels, as well as the more than [-] war horses, are all mine!"

Shen Ning nodded, he asked Zhong Gan in the middle of the night last night, so he knew the details very well.

So today he just came to ask to see if there was anything he could do.

Shen Ning is an old man in the officialdom, of course he knows about important people.This thing cannot be decided by itself.

You think you're doing a good job, but in fact, it may be the opposite, and the flattery hits the hoof.

And he can show his face in front of Huo Shan by the way!

"You probably will stay in the Northland for a while, I won't talk about the rest, you can handle it yourself.

The Xiongnu Yi Cong Department is raising all my things, you help me take care of them and arrange them, if anyone wants to tamper with them, push them back to me, don't be afraid. "

Shen Ning stood up and bowed:
"The minister knows!"

"Sit!" Huo Shan pressed his hand.

"The more than [-] horses, keep [-] for use, and the rest of the Shaofu will be taken away, and the official price will be used!"

"promise."

In fact, if the war horse is to be sold, it can be sold at several times the official price, but Huo Shan does not lack this money.

The price of horses in the Western Han Dynasty was very high, and a good horse among stallions could sell for hundreds of gold!
But there is a big problem. Ordinary people are not willing to raise horses, because horses eat too much, and they have to eat well. Their daily labor is not as good as that of cows and donkeys.

So I am not willing to raise horses. If Liu Che hadn't ordered the people to raise horses, there might not be many people raising horses.

Therefore, the price of horses is very high, and ordinary people can hardly sell them, they can only sell them to big families, but Huo Shan is unwilling to sell them to big families, so he can only sell them to Shaofu.

A good horse costs a hundred gold, but it is a good horse.

The official market price of Huo Shan's Hun war horses is estimated to be five to ten gold.

The Xiongnu war horse has never been able to stand on the table of the big man, mainly because it is short and not beautiful, and there are tall horses like the Qin horse, so naturally they look down on the Xiongnu horse, but in fact this kind of horse is really good.
