Chapter 241 A Starved Camel (1/2)



Chapter 241

However, Huo Yunxuan still felt a bit uneasy after hearing Lan Huaiwang's words, after all, his attitude was completely different from before.

As for the reason, Huo Yunxuan knew it too; this person probably thought he had no more use to him.

Because today, the Emperor has decreed that all of his property be confiscated.

As expected, once someone leaves, they become cold and indifferent. He hadn't even left yet, but this person had already changed their attitude.

"Sir, have you ever heard the saying, 'Even a starved camel is bigger than a horse'?" Huo Yunxuan said, suppressing his dissatisfaction.

He knew that this was his only chance; otherwise, after he was exiled three thousand miles away, he would not have time to decide these things, and this person would never see him again.

At that time, although the Huo family could make a comeback, it would be different. He, a mere merchant, understood why this person wanted so much silver.

All I wanted was that chair.

Originally, he didn't agree, but he also wanted to try his luck and get an official position like Li Tianyou. Unfortunately, that emperor didn't know how to cherish this opportunity.

It's no wonder he sought other paths.

"Oh?" Seeing Huo Yunxuan's confident look, Lan Huaiwang hesitated again. After all, since this man could own such a huge family business as Jiyun Manor, it was hard to guarantee that he might have some businesses that others did not know about.

If that's the case, then he really needs to consider whether this person can stay.

"I can help you make a comeback, but I have one condition," Huo Yunxuan said, looking at Prince Lan Huai.

"What are your requirements?" King Lan Huai looked at Huo Yunxuan. If he could really help him and become his money bag, he would agree to even ten requirements, let alone one.

"I have three older sisters. I hope you will take good care of them. You need to marry my third sister." Huo Yunxuan knew that the person in front of him was of extraordinary status. If he became emperor, his third sister would be a concubine. At that time, his Huo family could also climb higher and further.

As for Huo Yunzhi, the Chen family she originally wanted to marry into was completely unimportant compared to power and influence.

"You should know that with my status, it's impossible for me to be unmarried." King Lan Huai didn't expect Huo Yunxuan to make such a request. As for the suggestion of marrying his sister, King Lan Huai didn't take it to heart. He had many women in his harem, and it wouldn't be impossible for him to marry one or even three at the same time.

However, she could only be a concubine.

"Then I'll ask for the position of a concubine!" Huo Yunxuan hadn't really expected this man to marry his third sister as his principal wife, but the position of a concubine shouldn't be too much to ask, right?

King Lan Huai hadn't expected that Huo Yunxuan had such a big appetite, asking for the position of a concubine right off the bat.

He does have one more concubine position, but it depends on whether the person offers enough incentives.

"Then it depends on whether Young Master Huo's sincerity is enough for this old man to take Miss Huo the Third as his concubine!" Since King Lan Huai thought this way, he said it truthfully.

"This is a gambling den owned by me in the capital, which I will use as part of my third sister's dowry." Huo Yunxuan deliberately added this to the dowry.

This means that from now on, anything given to me can only be given through Huo Yunzhi's dowry.

"Yuanxin Gambling House?" King Lan Huai was surprised to find that the largest gambling house in the capital belonged to Huo Yunxuan.

Thinking about this person, who had no background in the capital, yet was able to open the largest gambling den in the capital, he must have some ability.

Therefore, King Lan Huai believed Huo Yunxuan's words to some extent.

“In that case, I agree to your request. I will marry Ms. Huo on a chosen day.” King Lan Huai thought to himself, since he wanted his sister to stay by his side, he would grant his wish.
