From Zhou to the early Western Han Dynasty, Luoyang has a rich collection of humanities and the legendary deeds of many sages deeply touched Sang Hongyang in his childhood.

The historical facts of Su Qin's slaughtering the thighs and embraced the six kingdoms, which left a very deep impression on Sang Hongyang. The idea of ​​becoming a general and becoming a general, and becoming a title of officials has always firmly occupied Sang Hongyang's mind, and he was deeply moved by the view that "relatives are afraid of wealth and honor, and relatives are afraid of poverty and humbleness."

At the same time, Jia Yi's political proposition of "non-harmonyism; the importance of accumulation; non-introduction and minting theory (unified currency system)" was also accepted and inherited by Sang Hongyang.

The unique social environment in his hometown has a subtle influence on Sang Hongyang's thoughts. Under the influence of his family's primary education and the influence of his parents, Sang Hongyang had a strong interest in mathematics and business since childhood. Sang Hongyang was well versed in arithmetic and business methods in his youth, and was able to help the family carry out some financial management activities.

In the late years of Emperor Jing (about 142 BC), Sang Hongyang, who was only thirteen years old, became famous for his "proficient in mental arithmetics". By 140 BC, he was fifteen years old, and his fame also expanded from Luoyang to surrounding areas.

But what he didn't expect was that His Majesty actually knew how his fame spread to Chang'an City? How could the emperor, who was busy with trouble, be interested in a little famous son of a merchant like him?

In this era of extremely low status of merchants, in addition to having money can make the devil push, when encountering bolder people, such as holding a grudge against merchants, as long as they seize their handle and go to the government to file a complaint, the county magistrate will also pay special attention to finding evidence of the crime, because in the eyes of the government, merchants are all under the jurisdiction of the untouchables, so it is easy to be defeated.

I originally planned to leave my family and go to Chang'an City to find a job, but now it seems that there is no need. It is better to follow the emperor's edict and move your family to Chang'an City.

He asked the county magistrate, and only knew that the person who came to pass the imperial edict was not in his official position, but he was one of the closest people to His Majesty.

Ma Zhiyu was also very curious about this young man who was only one or two years younger than His Majesty. He lived at Sang Hongyang's house for a few days and showed the mighty and fierce moves of a military general in front of him.

To Sang Hongyang, getting along with Ma Zhiyu, was like opening the door to another world. He knew that in addition to the boring arithmetic and business methods, there were many wonderful things, in Chang'an City, the brightest Weiyang Palace in the Han Dynasty.

Under the lights of Weiyang, there are books in the palace as vast as a sea of ​​smoke, and there are sharp pens of civil officials and military generals, so there is also a chance to let the sky be wide.

The journey went smoothly, and the family gave Sang Hongyang great support. When Sang Hongyang learned that His Majesty was going to raise his son, Sang Hongyang's father was even more ecstatic. He sold his property in just ten days and made every effort to help his son develop in the capital.

I can't help but feel nervous when I see the emperor. Although Sang Hongyang knew that His Majesty was not much different from his age, he had just arrived at the magnificent palace garden and thought of the emperor's majesty, and he couldn't calm down at all.

The place where Liu Che met Sang Hongyang was Chengming Palace, which usually does not work. It will only be opened to the ministers as a resting place after major court discussions to facilitate the discussion of national affairs.

It is obvious that Liu Che treated Sang Hongyang as a future minister, which made Sang Hongyang more careful and followed the Huangmen without saying a word...

At this time, the emperor must be asked to break the silence. After all, he was invited by Liu Che.

After looking at the handsome and healthy boy, he noticed the panic in his heart. Liu Che chuckled and said, "Sang Hongyang, I know you are very strange. Why did I look for you, but I won't tell you why, because you believe in destiny, and sometimes I also believe in destiny! This is destiny, and you will definitely be my right-hand man in the future!"

"Caomin is a commoner, and he is so fond of His Majesty. He is so frightened that the Caomin cannot repay him. He is willing to serve His Majesty for the rest of his life!" He knelt on the ground, Sang Hongyang's lips trembled slightly, and he said in a slight manner.

"Lifelong? Hahaha, Sang Hongyang, you said this too early now. I don't want to have your whole life. As long as you do your best to do your best for me in the future, it's enough!" Liu Che turned sideways and looked at Sang Hongyang with a smile.

At this time, the seat recruited by Liu Che also went to Sang Hongyang through the yellow gate. Under the expectation of the master, he also stood up and sat up hesitantly.

With his right hand restlessly holding the handrail and sitting upright, Sang Hongyang said, "I don't know where Your Majesty will use the grass civilians in the future. Let the grass civilians know, so that they can study it as soon as possible to help Your Majesty solve his worries in the future!"

"There is no rush to do this. You should start with the ministers first, so that the ministers can accept you in the future. I can only tell you that I will launch a great war in the future, and I don't want the world to be financially tight and people's livelihood to be difficult!" Liu Che walked down the steps, walked slowly towards Sang Hongyang, looked down at him, and said in a deep voice.

Your Majesty has come to him. If you don’t get up at this time, when will you get up? Sang Hongyang bent down and pulled open the chair, then straightened his body and said: "I have been learning "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" since I was a child. I have learned how to manage my father and think I have great talent. If Your Majesty is willing to use me in the future, I will give me ten thousand courage, and I will not dare to take a step back!"

With the corners of his mouth curled up, Liu Che sighed sincerely: "You are a smart person!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he would appoint him as the minister, Sang Hongyang called himself a minister and threw away the humble title of Caomin. Liu Che felt that Sang Hongyang was smart enough, reacted quickly enough, would show loyalty, and would also be very conscious of the general!

Seeing that Sang Hongyang was just smirking and not talking, Liu Che made an invitation and signaled him to sit down again.

When he heard the name of "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic", he was very curious. Liu Che asked Sang Hongyang and said, "Is "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" widely circulated?"

"Ah? "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic"? Well, "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" is also called "Nine Chapters", I don't know who wrote it. The predecessors included Zhang Cang, the Marquis of Peking and Geng Shouchang, the Chief Agriculture of the Grand Secretary, added and revised it. Because it was too obscure and difficult to understand, it was not widely circulated. I also accidentally read it from my grandfather's study." After a brief reaction, Sang Hongyang explained in detail.

"Now there are households with a height of more than 6 feet and eight inches, and the two corners are about one meter apart. Ask the households with height, how big is each?" Liu Che directly asked Sang Hongyang about the nine chapters of arithmetic that had tortured him in the past.

"The door is nine feet and six inches high, and two feet and eight inches wide!" Although Liu Che asked abruptly, Sang Hongyang replied immediately after a few breaths.

Even now, Liu Che only has an outstanding memory and is still very difficult to answer questions such as arithmetic.

Obviously,

Sang Hongyang's reaction speed,

He was really shocked...
