At that time, someone was knocking on the door outside the small courtyard.

Gu Yiyi was doing the last step of the balm inside. When she heard the noise outside, she rushed to open the door.

Unexpectedly, it was shopkeeper Jin.

He carried some eggs and meat and handed them to Gu Yiyi with a smile: "Madam."

"What kind of wind brings Shopkeeper Jin here?"

After saying that, he invited him in with a smile. Shopkeeper Jin looked at the small courtyard. There were a lot of medicinal materials dried in the center of the courtyard. It looked no different from an ordinary small courtyard.

He couldn't help but sigh: "My wife has such a financial background, but now she is willing to live in this kind of house. She has a high level of thinking."

Gu Yiyi joked: "As long as the place you live in can provide shelter from wind and rain, what else can you live in?"

"A humble house has its advantages. Come on, Shopkeeper Jin. There is no need to say those roundabout words between us. Why did you come to me today?"

Shopkeeper Jin smiled slightly. Seeing that she had already made it clear, he was too embarrassed to beat around the bush.

He simply said it bluntly.

"Madam, you guessed it right. I came here to see Madam for something, but it's nothing serious. I just came to see how Madam's balm is doing."

After speaking, I sniffed again and smelled a very special smell. I was sure that I was making ointment, and my eyes suddenly opened up.

"Ma'am, is she making ointment?"

Gu Yiyi smiled and nodded.

"Since I promised Shopkeeper Jin to make some ointment to test the water, I will not break my promise. When the ointment solidifies in three days, I will send someone to deliver it. But this batch of goods is not much, how to sell it, it depends on you Yes.

I want a good deal, I'll get 60%. "

Shopkeeper Jin agreed very simply: "That's natural!! Madam, I actually want to tell you today that I think our four or six points are quite good. If you are willing, I will give you all your balms from now on." Sixty percent, if you can give me better products, then thirty or seventy percent is no problem!"

He knew Gu Yiyi's ability, so as long as she was willing to supply him, he could be sure that he would be replaced by no one in the imperial city.

Naturally, the things he sells are unique. When the price rises, no one can compete with him.

With Gu Yiyi, he didn't pay any attention to Yuanyangfang.

Gu Yiyi is also a troublesome person. A rouge shop like this needs to accumulate a certain number of customers before it can be established.

If she were to start from scratch, it would mean that she would have to stock up a lot of goods and invest a lot of energy and time, which would be quite troublesome in comparison.

So I would rather just supply goods and get a 60-70% dividend, which is still very profitable.

Seeing that Shopkeeper Jin had said so, she agreed very readily.

"That's fine, then it's settled. Does Shopkeeper Jin want to draw up a deed?"

Shopkeeper Jin stopped and said with a smile: "That's not necessary. I believe in your character, madam. Since you promised me, you can definitely do it. As long as you say this, I can sell with confidence!!"

When Gu Yiyi saw him coming, she planned to give him some duck food to try, but just when she turned around and was about to go to the kitchen, another voice came from outside the courtyard.

"Is there anyone?"

It was a middle-aged woman's voice that sounded repeatedly at the door of the courtyard.

Shopkeeper Jin signaled, and Gu Yiyi went to open the door.

As soon as I opened it, I saw an old woman in green clothes looking at Gu Yiyi with a smile.

Gu Yiyi saw that this face seemed familiar, but for a while she couldn't remember where she had seen it.

In the end, the old woman was surprised and said: "Yiyi, you don't recognize my aunt??"

After hearing these words, some memories hidden deep in Gu Yiyi's heart suddenly came up.

It turns out that this face is so familiar, it is actually the aunt of the original owner who moved away from Jiangjia Village long ago.

The original owner, Gu Yiyi, was still young at the time, and her family moved to the imperial city because of her uncle's promotion. Since then, contact with her family has been cut off, and Gu Yiyi has never been in contact with her again.

I didn't expect that she actually knew his whereabouts and came to find him. It was really strange.

Seeing her confused look, the old woman seemed to have guessed what she was thinking and told her with a smile.

"It was Dachuan who sent us a message! He said that you came to the Imperial City. We are all relatives, so we naturally have to take care of each other. What's more, since you are new here, of course I have to come and see you, aunt."

At first, Gu Yiyi thought she was kind-hearted and agreed a few times. Even shopkeeper Jin on the side was very polite to her.

"It turns out that she is madam's aunt. Hello, old madam. I am the shopkeeper Jin of Fanggui Tower."

When she heard that it was the shopkeeper of Fang Gui Lou, the old woman's eyes widened instantly and she quickly bowed.

"Oh, Shopkeeper Jin! I'm glad to meet you. I didn't expect you to have such a good relationship with my niece. I used to go to your house to buy jewelry."

"Really? That's such a coincidence. If you come over again in the future, you can pick whatever you want!"

"Really? Thank you so much!!"

The old woman was smiling. Shopkeeper Jin could tell that they had something important to talk about, so he didn't stop here any longer: "Madam, I'll come visit you another day and I'll be waiting for you to get the best balm."

Gu Yiyi hummed softly, watched him leave, and then politely asked the old woman to come in and sit down.

Unexpectedly, before she could speak, the old woman had already walked into the yard by herself.

She looked at the courtyard with some disgust, frowned and said: "Yiyi, you already have such a big net worth, why do you still live in such a simple thatched house? Why not buy a wealthy courtyard in the city?

But...is it because your boss, Chesou, doesn't let you spend money randomly? "

Gu Yiyi's eyebrows moved and she just said: "I want to live in it myself. This kind of house is comfortable to live in."

"I'm afraid you're used to staying in the countryside. There are many good courtyards in our imperial city. You treated so many people in Pingshan Town and opened a shop. You made a lot of money, right?"

Seeing that she wanted to inquire about her net worth, secretly or covertly, Gu Yiyi realized that this relative was afraid that she was coming with bad intentions.

He just said: "With that few dollars, it is naturally not as good as my aunt's family."

In my impression, the eldest uncle rose through the ranks when he was an official in his early years. He found a medium-sized official position in the imperial city, and the whole family became wealthy.

But since then, there has been no contact with Gu Yiyi and the others.

At least when her family was in trouble, when she was about to be sold by Gu Dachuan to be someone else's mistress, she wrote to the imperial city to ask for help, but she didn't get any mercy.

As those memories came back one after another, Gu Yiyi's impression of this aunt became more and more profound.

The old woman also felt that their own family must be better off than Gu Yiyi, so she raised her chin superiorly and said, "If you have anything you don't understand in the imperial city in the future, just come to Auntie, I will definitely be able to help you." .”

"Thank you, auntie, but...I don't need help with anything."

The old woman thought that Gu Yiyi was just being modest and said with a smile: "How could we predict this in advance? Maybe there will be a day when you need my help?"

After saying that, he coughed a few more times before returning to the topic.

"Actually, Yiyi, my aunt asked Dachuan for news about you this time because she wanted to ask you to do her a favor."

Sure enough, there is nothing wrong without going to the Three Treasures Hall.
