"Hey, Hu Kuan is here, okay!" Chen Xu threw down the chopsticks in his hand and stood up and strode out.

"Brother Wuya, who is Hu Kuan?" Zhao Qing put down his chopsticks in confusion and stood up and asked.

"Hu Kuan is the manager of Qinghe Store!" Yu Wuya stuffed a piece of hot beef into his mouth, then lifted the iron sword and walked out while talking.

Sure enough, when Chen Xu walked to the gate of the Hou Mansion in snow, he saw more than 30 carriages lined up, with their tails lined up outside the street. Hu Kuan led more than ten children, Shi Xuan and Bo Daocheng, two music masters whom Chen Xu called for him to bring, dozens of helpers, grooms driving the car, and soldiers escorted. A large group of one or two hundred people stood around the door and looked nervously waiting.

"Mr. Marquis!" Seeing Chen Xu come out, Hu Kuan was overjoyed and quickly bowed to salute.

"I've seen the Marquis!" Shi Xuan, Bo Daocheng, the soldiers and the lieutenant all bowed to Chen Xu together.

"Kowtow to the Marquis!" A slightly older child shouted, and more than a dozen boys and girls knelt in the snow and kowtowed to Chen Xu together.

"Why kowtow, get up quickly, go in and wash and roast the fire for dinner!" Chen Xu pulled up the two children in front of him, looked at the snowflakes on his hats and clothes, and ordered Huangfu Que, the manager who followed, to quickly bring a group of trembling children, Shi Xuanbo Daocheng and others into the mansion.

After a group of children entered, Chen Xu looked at the car full of goods and said with a smile: "It's good to come. I've been hoping for you for a long time. It's snowing and slippery on the road, so it must be difficult to leave, right?"

Hu Kuan quickly bowed and smiled and said, "Fortunately, the county magistrate arranged for a school soldiers to escort along the way, and the convoy was also equipped with flags from the Marquis' Mansion. Along the way, many caravans took the initiative to give way, and also arranged for work slaves to help push the carts. Therefore, it went very smoothly. Although the ice and snow blocked the road, it only took half a month to go, hoping that the marquis's big affairs would not be delayed!"

"It's snowing outside, so I'll get all the carriages into the Marquis' Mansion first. The grooms, helpers and soldiers are all washed, eaten and drunk, and then slowly do it!"

After Chen Xu finished speaking, he gave a few instructions. The housekeeper and guards who were following behind him were all busy and directed the coachman to drive all the carriage into the yard.

"By the way, Marquis, we were on the Southeast Road this time. When we were passing by Luoyang, we met someone. I heard that we were Marquis' caravans. He wanted to visit Marquis. I saw that he had a good conversation, so I brought him. Do you want to meet?" Hu Kuan asked carefully.

If you have good conversations, you will naturally be a scholar. Chen Xu is still interested in this kind of person, so he smiled and said, "Since you come here to see him, just bring him here!"

"Okay!" Hu Kuan turned around and quickly brought a young man in a fur coat and a fur hat, with a familiar appearance.

"Hey, Chen Ping!" Chen Xu was stunned for a moment.

"Chen Ping pays homage to the Marquis of Qinghe! Unexpectedly, after more than a year of separation, the name of the Marquis had already resounded throughout China!" Chen Ping respectfully bowed to Chen Xu.

"Mr. Marquis, you know each other!" Hu Kuan was surprised.

"Haha, I've known each other for a long time. Brother Chen is a famous scholar in Daliang and has a reputation. It just so happened that we were eating hot pot. We walked in and talked while eating~!" Chen Xu's face was about to laugh, and he enthusiastically pulled Chen Ping into the mansion. Hu Kuan followed behind with confusion.

When they entered the room, they ordered the maid to fetch water to wash Hu Kuan and Chen Ping, and then sat down together around the hot pot, giving Zhao Qing and Yu Wuya each introduced each other before they picked up the chopsticks and continued to rinse the hot pot.

Hu Kuan naturally had eaten hot pot, but like Zhao Qing, he had never thought of it so rich, and never thought of it. When he was still following Ma Teng in Wancheng, although he was not short of food and clothing, he would only have enough food and clothing. Gambling money is a gambling bill of several dozen yuan. It has only been better since he lived with Chen Xu. Now in Wancheng and even in the entire Qin Dynasty, Hu Kuan has a great reputation. Since Qin Shihuang watched a play at the Qinghe Theater in Wancheng, the sign of Qinghe

The reputation is getting better and better. If you go anywhere, you will be the target of merchants who are competing with each other. Not to mention that Chen Xu became the Marquis of Qinghe. Many merchants who know many inside stories are respectful to the people of Qinghe Group. No, the reputation of Qinghe Marquis is too great. In just over a month, Chen Xu's reputation has resounded throughout China, and almost everyone knows it. The identities of Hu Kuan and others who have been with Chen Xu are naturally rising, and gradually there are signs of a wealthy family.

However, for Chen Ping, it was the first time he had seen hot pot. Not to mention the novelty of the way to eat, the dishes were definitely luxurious. I don’t know how much savings from poor families have to be eaten for several years. However, Chen Ping would not consider the feelings of the poor. Compared with Chen Xu’s wealth and status, he was also a poor peasant. This meal was enough to broaden his horizons, let alone such a large marquis’ mansion.

He had heard that this marquis' mansion was the prime minister of the former prime minister Lu Buwei, and there were only a few people who could live in the world.

A group of people gathered around the hot pot and ate it. After eating a few cups of Qinghe wine, everyone became familiar with each other and slowly opened up their conversation, laughing and drinking, and the atmosphere became more and more lively.

"Brother Chen, since you are here in Xianyang, don't look for other places anymore. I know that you are talented. If you just buried it, you will waste all your studies. How about staying to help me in the future?" Chen Xu said to Chen Ping with a smile while talking about food and drink.

"The Marquis invites you, but Ping dares not refuse. After leaving Qinghe Town with Yingbu last time, Ping returned to Daliang and spent the rest of the year in a daze. A month ago, I heard that you were invited to Xianyang by Master Fusu and named the Prime Minister of the State and the Marquis of Qinghe by His Majesty. Ping thought about it over and over again, and wanted to come and defect to the Marquis, hoping that all you have learned can be used by the Marquis!" Chen Ping quickly put down his wine glass and chopsticks and bowed.

"Haha, that's great. With your help, I'll be like an arm!" Chen Xu started happily and raised his glass and said, "Come on, drink a drink for Chen Ping's!"

"Damn~" Several people who were blushing and drinking raised their cups one after another.

"In Luoyang that day, I felt that Brother Chen was talking well. I didn't expect that Brother Chen and the Marquis were old acquaintances. Since they were both their own people, if they were sent, they would definitely support them with all their orders!"

Hu Kuan is now in charge of five Qinghe hotels in Wancheng, Daliang, Xinzheng, Handan, Luoyang, etc., and the daily income of money cannot be described as the speed of making money. Now the Qinghe shop account of Huaxia Money House has exceeded 10 million yuan, and it is still increasing every day. The account of Qinghe shop is specially arranged for people to manage it separately, and can be arranged to use it at any time without having to go to the counter to handle the deposit and withdrawal procedures. Therefore, Hu Kuan is now rich and no one dares to ignore his existence in the Daqin business community.

"Brother Hu praised Chen Ping, who was a humble family, had a poor family since childhood, but liked to study and travel, so he had to rely on his brother to take care of his parents at home. Now Ping is not diligent in all four bodies and is not divided into grains. He originally wanted to go home to help his brother farm and support his family, but his brother taught me that if he learned a lot of knowledge and still did low-level things like farming and chopping wood, wouldn't he be ashamed of the people in the world? Ping had no choice but to think about it and felt that only the Marquis could surrender in the world, so he prepared to come to Xianyang..."

Chen Ping was straightforward and roughly explained the causes and consequences of his own experience. At the end, he said blushed: "What Ping Zhi learned is quite mixed, he has a lot of classics, history, and collections. However, he is not proficient in business management, does not know how to calculate, and does not know whether he can help the marquis, so he was quite nervous."

"Haha, businessmen's affairs are simple, you can learn it once, and calculation is even more a bit of a clever way. But the so-called "one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-all-one-do-do-all-one-do-do-all-one-do-do-it-all-one-do-do-it-all-one

"Thank you for your appreciation!" Chen Ping stood up excitedly and bowed.

"Congratulations to Brother Chen, with the recommendation of the Marquis, Brother Chen's future will be smooth sailing in the future!" Zhao Qing couldn't help but bow to congratulate him.

"By the way, Brother Chen knows that Yingbu is also in Xianyang now!" After some politeness, Chen Xu sat down again, and said while eating.

"He is here too?" Chen Ping was stunned for a moment, then stopped chopsticks with a deep expression.

"Haha, in March this year, when His Majesty was traveling southeast, he came to join me in Wancheng. He is now in charge of safety affairs in the factory outside the city. He has been named the captain by His Majesty. You are old acquaintances and you can meet in a few days!" Chen Xu nodded with a smile.

"Mr. Marquis, Yingbu..." Chen Ping hesitated for a moment and was about to speak.

"One time and another time, Brother Chen doesn't have to worry too much. The so-called people go to the high places and water flows to the low places. Ying Bu is just as you think, just because he is just afraid of burying his martial arts. If you work together in the future, don't be irresistible!"

"Yes, Marquis!" Chen Ping bowed.

It can be said that today is a day of double happiness.

Not only did he get the news that the merchant's steel smelting was successful, Hu Kuan also brought him a resourceful Chen Ping. Chen Xu was extremely happy and accidentally drank too much. Five people drank more than ten bottles of Qinghe wine. The fifteen-year-old little body couldn't stand it, but just when several little maids were helping him to go to bed and fainted for a while, the manager Huangfu Que ran in again and shouted in a series of yelling.

"Marty, Marquis~"

"What's the matter?" Chen Xu asked in a daze, half open his eyes and asked unhappily.

"A personal eunuch comes to pass the order, Your Majesty asks the marquis to enter the palace immediately!"

"Uh!" Chen Xu couldn't help but burp, and his alcoholic spirit was reduced by three points in an instant. Although it was a little confused, he still quickly asked someone to change his clothes, and hurriedly washed his face and brushed his teeth to clean it up, and then got on the carriage and called the guards to escort out the door.

Sure enough, a luxurious carriage was already parked outside the Marquis' mansion. The palace servant who announced the order was standing under the car and waiting. When he saw Chen Xu coming out, he quickly bowed and said, "Marty Qinghe, Your Majesty has something to summon him. Please come to the palace quickly!"
