I was transformed in ancient aristocratic waste
Chapter 31 The spring breeze is mixed with wine and their Gu family is big enough to attract the win
"Hey, where did you get this kid?" Yu Chiyuan, who worked hard like a long-term worker, finished his cleaning work behind him, and finally carried out the finale coral beads, and saw Gu Zhu in the yard following him. A strange boy was standing together holding hands and talking, he quickly walked over, asked, raised his eyelids up and down, and looked at each other.
Gu Zhu couldn't wait to blink his left eye at Yu Chiyuan, and introduced: "Ahem, this is a guest from Erfang. I just met him too. He said he came with Sisan, who came back from Erfang's boat. I thought he was bored, so I asked him to come over to our place first, to see if there is anything we like, and buy one or two, by the way, his surname is Bai, call him..." Ah Wan...
Before Gu Zhu could finish his introduction, Bai Wang who was beside him took the end of the sentence, bowed to Young Master Yu Chiyuan, and said flatly: "Bai Wang, people call him Young Master Bai."
Naturally, Yu Chiyuan also saw all kinds of expensive accessories on Bai Wang's body, and immediately understood why the little bastard Gu Zhu was so kind to this person: "I am the Yuchi family of Yangzhou, Yuchiyuan."
"So it's the Yuchi family, I've heard of it a long time ago." The young man said compliments in vain, but his expression did not have the slightest hint of flattery or compliment.
Yu Chiyuan saw a little bit of Bai Wang's indifference towards him, and the arrogance in his bones would never allow him to pester Bai Hua like Gu Zhu, and even tugged on Gu Zhu's sleeve, and leaned over to whisper something Displeased: "I don't think he's a good person, don't play with him after slaughtering him."
Gu Zhu patted Yu Chiyuan's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I know it myself."
At the stall where the young masters were talking, Guanshi Guo rang the bell and asked his servants to carry out a beautiful coral bead, that is, a fist-sized night pearl lying in the middle of the red jade coral.The red coral is carved from blood jade, and a crowing blood bracelet has only a trace of red band, and it is worth thousands of gold. Naturally, when such a red coral is launched, it will shock the audience!
Gu Zhu listened to the admiration of the wealthy businessmen and officials around him with satisfaction, and he was in a good mood.
On the stage, the patriarch Taki was introducing the origin of the coral beads. Gu Zhu's beautiful eyes looked around and saw that many people had already come to make an offer. It was sent this year, but we don’t need it, and we are willing to give it up to those who like this coral bead, so as not to put it in the warehouse at home. Dust, you said you want to take a look, what do you like? I can give it to you A friendly price."
Gu Zhu didn't know what kind of families the rich merchants in Yangzhou had, maybe there was a surnamed Bai, if Bai Wang was really the son of the rich merchant's family, then it would be a trivial matter to buy the coral beads for 100 million taels.
Did he know that those wealthy businessmen send more than one or two million taels of silver to various government offices every year!
The young boy Bai Wang was urged twice by Zhuzhu, and he already understood what the little guy called him to come here. He couldn't help but smile and curled his mouth. : "Zhuzhu, is your family short of money?"
Gu Zhu thought for a while, and didn't intend to lie, but modified it a bit: "I'm waiting for an urgent use."
"No wonder, I don't know how much is missing. I saw that the cash register in your housekeeper's account has received 200 million taels in one morning. Although that red coral is rare, it is not a rare treasure. It is the only one. The price in the world is about At 50 taels, but you are auctioning with such an undisclosed bidding method, you must not be satisfied with 50 taels." Young Master Bai said slowly.
Gu Zhu's little trick was exposed by Fat Sheep, she didn't blush, and boasted with a smile: "You are so smart, Ah Wang."
Young Master Bai lowered his eyes, walked to Guanshi Guo's accounting office, took out a note, picked up a pen and wrote down the word 'million taels', then pressed his fingerprints, and handed the note to Gu Zhu, Yun Danfeng Said softly: "Zhuzhu, look at the number filled in the front."
Gu Zhu took the note, which was simply an ancient version of a bad check!This classmate Ah Wan, are you sure you can get it out?
Yu Chiyuan, who was closely following Gu Zhu, was the first to express doubts, and then he opened his mouth and said to Bai Wang, "May I ask Mr. Bai what kind of business does your family do? Who is the official in the family? Hehe, it's really big." Do you think Zhuzhu is stupid? Do you still trust your blank note?"
Young Master Bai didn't explain, just said: "Zhuzhu, I'm very sorry, just now I accidentally saw the quotation book of Guanshi Guo's red coral beads, the quotation on it is much lower than 50 taels. Presumably someone Let's work together to pick up the cheap price of your general's mansion, but the spare money in the hands of the buyers here has been spent on the previous things. Now if you want to buy coral beads, there is no money to come up with, so you simply write a minimum price. The price, such as 1000 taels, 500 taels, so your final coral bead is likely to be bought by a member named Hu over there at a price of 500 taels."
Gu Zhu was stunned for a moment, her little face turned serious, and she ran nervously to Guanshi Guo to check the registered quotations. The more she looked at her face, the worse her complexion became, and she said to Guanshi Guo, "Uncle Guo, what's going on?"
Guanshi Guo looked unruffled, and said in a low voice: "Let people continue to keep accounts here first, and I will talk to Lord Wu, or we will withdraw the sale of this red coral directly, or we will lose a lot! Those in the front Small pieces earn 200 million taels, but they are actually only 50 taels higher than the market price. If our red coral is really sold at a low price of 500 taels, then it is meaningless to hold this auction Alright, busy work for nothing."
Gu Zhu didn't expect such a thing to happen. He said that there was a red coral bead as the finale, so it was impossible for such a group low price to really appear!Someone is definitely fishing in troubled waters, seeing that the emptiness inside and outside of their house is not worth being afraid of, so they made a special trip to pick up the leaks!
"No, I'll ask my friend to help you quote a high price. You can just announce that he got the red coral beads in a while. You don't need to go to daddy for this kind of thing." After Gu Zhu finished speaking, he immediately went back and was vainly grateful to his new friend He smiled and said, "Thank you, I'll just fill in this number, and I'll call it your family in a short while, but how about not counting it?"
Young Master Bai didn't know what the General's Mansion was going to do with this play, but wouldn't it be difficult if they were short of money?The most important thing in his family is money.
"It's so troublesome and secretive, and it's not good for your family's reputation." The young man said flatly, he simply took the pen, paused for a while, and finally filled in a five, "I saw it just now, the bead Zhu, you and I are predestined, and both have a money pendant with five blessings. When I first came to the house, my father often taught me that I should go to the house of the person I like, and you should not empty your hands. "
Gu Zhu's brat heard a few thought-provoking words, so he couldn't help but look at Bai Fan a few more times. Bai Fan looked at him, and within two seconds, he moved his eyes away first, and was afraid that he might say something wrong. After talking, she explained: "When I saw Zhuzhu, I felt kind and wanted to have a long-term relationship. It's just that you have a family like yours and my status, so I really don't know what else I can give you other than money. Please don't refuse."
It's not the first time that Gu Zhu meets young masters and young ladies who are rushing to give him things. He never refuses anyone, and treats everyone well, not to mention this white man in front of him who relieves his urgent needs!
He likes the way he spends money in vain.
"I also got close to you as soon as I saw you, as if I knew you in a previous life. Don't talk about your status and family background, my dynasty still values civility over military affairs, and the general's mansion is nothing. It doesn't even have the taxes and fees paid by the merchants who travel to and from Yangzhou for ten miles to Daxing. There are many." Gu Zhu guessed that Bai Wang's family was in business, Daxing didn't do much to suppress business, but the royal family and aristocrats couldn't openly compete with the common people for food, and officials were not allowed to do business.
"Ah Wan, you don't know how happy I am to meet you. I really wish I could meet you sooner." Once Gu Zhu was happy, she spoke in a friendly way, and she was always fond of acting like a baby. Shaking, "Since you said that we all have Wufu coins, why don't we exchange them for Dai? It also makes us look closer, doesn't it?"
Young Master Bai was shaken by his arms, unable to refuse at all, standing in the corner of the Ming Garden, under the eyes of many people, exchanged the copper coins made of gold at his waist with the rumored pampered and spoiled young master Gu Zhu. Character.
As soon as Gu Zhu got the Wufu money from other people, he asked Ling Geer to tie it up again. He couldn't tie it himself. "I don't look good in my own, but I look good in Ah Wang's. I have to let my father see it too."
After all, the little lord flew to find his father with a fluffy little bird. Tie Zhu, who had been with Gu Zhu every step of the way, didn't care about anyone, and quickly chased after him. Brother Ling and Wei Chiyuan, the son of Yuchi's family, didn't catch up. , wait in place.
However, the three of them had nothing to say.
Although Brother Ling is not considered a servant, but a child of a poor relative far away married to his wife, but what he does is the work of a servant. Yu Chiyuan disdains to be with such inferior people, and will never tell Brother Ling Half a sentence of superfluous gossip.
But Yu Chiyuan held back his anger inexplicably, glanced at the Wufu money worn by Bai Huang's waist, his head was hot, and for some reason, he felt that the general's mansion didn't want to stay any longer, so he turned around and left .
Brother Ling was afraid that the young master would ask questions in a while, so he hurriedly chased after him and asked, "Master Yuchi, where are you going?"
Yu Chiyuan turned his head and kicked Liu Ling who was chasing up, right at Liu Ling's fragile wound: "Get out! None of your business!"
Young Master Bai watched from the sidelines that the arrogant Yu Chiyuan kicked the servant, and the servant shrank silently on the ground, his mouth seemed to be bitten by his teeth in pain, but he seemed unwilling to let him The guests in the yard saw the joke, and quickly climbed out of the yard, not knowing where to go...
Young Master Bai didn't intend to get involved, he just watched indifferently, while playing with the tassels of the Wufu coins he exchanged, he looked in the direction where the young master ran away, thinking, when Zhuzhu would come back again. return.
"Oh! Young Master Bai, why are you really here? This is... what are you doing here?" Suddenly a familiar voice came from the gate of the courtyard, and this person shouted loudly, attracting many dignitaries. The nobles and wealthy businessmen stared openly.
The young Bai Wang is used to standing in any line of sight, without any discomfort, and continues to hold the tassels of Wufu money by himself, looking at the people who are walking towards him - the second child of the Gu family, Gu Siting.
Gu Siting ran the boat in the wind and rain, his face was rough, but his facial features supported the face of the general's mansion, so that he would not be stunned.
On the way from the gate to the courtyard, Third Master Si greeted many acquainted officials one by one, many of whom used to have a good relationship, but now they just nodded slightly to him, obviously knowing that their second room is now separated. After the family went out, he, the concubine of the second room, has nothing to do with the general's mansion, the son-in-law, and the prince, so he is so snobbish!
Third Master Si endured this different treatment from the past, walked straight to Young Master Bai, and smiled flatteringly to Young Master Bai: "It's easy for me to find, I heard from the servants in my yard earlier that you and Zhu The younger brother ran away, so it was a joke."
Bai Wang is also extremely indifferent to this third master Si, this third master Si is not an important figure to their Cao Gang, it is just a matter of mutual benefit, but this mutual benefit relationship seems to be coming to an end, Bai Wang is in the general The mansion has heard that the second room where the third master Si lives has nothing to do with the general's mansion. In the future, if Gu Siting wants to get money from their water gang to hire people and boats empty-handed, it won't work. Either leave a hand.
"Well, Mr. Si." Young Master Bai nodded slightly. He didn't have any extra words. Today he came to the General's Mansion just to obey his father's order, and to come with him to see if he can still use the name of the General's Mansion and all levels Dealing with officials, secretly exempting some shipping taxes and fees, now it seems that Gu Siting is useless, so naturally there is no need to bother.
Gu Siting couldn't see anything from Young Master Bai's attitude, after all, this Young Master Bai has always been so indifferent to everyone, so he continued: "Here, Young Master Bai, there is nothing wrong with my family, why don't Don't just stand here, there are some things, I hope to discuss with the old gang leader, I don't know when the young master will return to the village, so he can take me in with him."
The Cao Gang is a collection of coolies along the Grand Canal near Yangzhou. They used to be water thieves, and later they became a freelancer. They recruited all the water thieves and strong men who earned money by working hard on the docks. , forming the basic manpower for water transportation that is indispensable to Daxing today, and even cooperates with the government.
Gu Siting and his uncle's north-south freight business did not have any shops, no ships, and they were stingy about renting ships, so they used the name of the General's Mansion to exchange for free shipping. What, it wouldn't be such a big bad thing if you think about it, it's just that Cao Gang wanted to use the favor of the general's mansion to exempt some ship taxes.
In the past, Gu Siting and the second head of the Cao Gang made a good promise. As long as he uses the boat of the Cao Gang for a day, the Cao Gang can mention his name. He is from the General's Mansion, and those officials, big and small, from other places, look at the General's Mansion's face , Always be polite to Caobang customers.Now that the deal was over, Gu Siting thought that if he had to think of other ways, he couldn't cut off the connection with the Cao Gang, otherwise his business with his uncle would be over!
Gu Siting just bought a large amount of tea from his uncle's spring tea at a high price, and sold it half-and-half. This time, all the losses from previous years have been filled, and by the way, I feel proud.
At this juncture, how can we separate from the Cao Gang?Do you want to spend money to buy a boat?
Gu Siting was in a hurry to transport tea, but since the second leader of the Cao Gang knew about the division of his family, he hadn't seen him, only the first leader asked Young Master Bai to come over and take a look, what are you looking at?Didn't they see that their families were divided?
"Master Bai, look, it's getting late, how about finding a restaurant and I treat you to authentic Huaiyang cuisine?" Gu Siting said in a low voice.
However, Young Master Bai was not interested in this, he waved his hand and said: "No, I have my own arrangements." Bai Wan also thought about inviting the young master to a meal, but he didn't want to bring anyone else.
Gu Siting smiled wryly, and wanted to say something to rescue him, but he didn't want to open his mouth before he saw Young Master Bai waving in one direction. Gu Siting looked up and saw that it was the plump fifth uncle holding him in his arms. The young master like a golden boy immediately looked at Young Master Bai suspiciously, and couldn't help but said: "I wonder why Young Master Bai didn't want to talk to me, it turned out that he had climbed a high branch, but don't blame me for not reminding me." But you, my fifth uncle, is the most impatient to deal with people in your profession, and he doesn't like to use his name to make foreign money. If you follow the path of my brother Zhu, it is even more impossible, even though he is younger than you You're only two years old, but unlike you who have been exposed to the affairs of the Cao Gang early on, Brother Zhu just cares about everything and only eats."
"Also, don't try to get my fifth uncle to help you by approaching the young master. The fifth uncle seems to have a good temper, but if your Cao Gang dares to use the young master, the fifth uncle can take over your Cao Gang Believe it or not?" Gu Siting actually didn't know about Fifth Uncle's ability, but he heard that Fifth Uncle had a personal relationship with Huainan Jiedushi, and was also referred to for a book, so he decided whether he was true or false, and made alarmist remarks.
Who knew that Young Master Bai's pitch-black eyes glanced at Gu Siting, frowned slightly, and said, "It's too vulgar." He and Zhuzhu made friends, and he had absolutely no intention of gaining the slightest advantage.
Gu Siting was evaluated by these four words, and he was a little embarrassed for a while, and he couldn't hold his face, but it was impossible for him to run away in anger because he was scolded as "vulgar". How dare you go on tea transportation?
Here the third master Si shut up like a quail, while the son-in-law Gu Jinchen walked in front of 'Fat Sheep Ah Wan' holding his jewels, 'Fat Sheep Ah Wan' is the nickname given by the little guy, Gu Jinchen felt coke when he heard it, and saw that the little guy said he was a new friend, and also saw that the little guy's new friend gave him a sum of 500 million taels of silver.
I heard that his surname is Bai.
The Bai family in Yangzhou has never heard of such ability.
Gu Wuye also heard from Little Zhuzhu that he had exchanged five blessing money with his new friend. This five blessing money is something in the palace, but the scope is too wide.
When Gu Wuye approached, he saw that the third son of the second room was also there, and the well-known young man named Bai Huang had a faint smell of water on his body, so he understood it, and smiled, "The son of Cao Bang Baiye?"
Bai Wang looked at Zhu Zhu in the big fat man's arms, always felt that the scene was quite impactful: "Exactly, I have seen the son-in-law." Bai Wang said, bowing at the same time.
Gu Jinchen didn't shout, and glanced at the third child in the second room with his phoenix eyes, as if he suspected that the third child brought this person to get in touch with his treasure, suspected that there were some ulterior secrets in it, suspected that the young master of the Cao Gang sent 500 million There is a prerequisite for two silver coins, and there is a need for something in return...
If it is really what he thinks, then the 500 million taels of silver is not acceptable-they take care of their family, and they are big enough to attract the wind.
But Gu Zhu, who was held in the arms of Dabing Daddy, heard the word Caobang, and still didn't quite understand the twists and turns in it, but felt that Dabing Daddy was a little distant and polite to Ah Wang, so he couldn't help whispering Big pie daddy asked, "What's the matter?"
Gu Jinchen shook his head, the countless conspiracies and intrigues in this world are not willing to pass on to his Gu Zhu.
So Gu Jinchen put the little guy down and said, "Didn't you mean to go out to eat out with your new friend? Go ahead, I'll let Guanshi Guo follow. Gu Siting, come here for me."
Gu Siting didn't dare not to go, and walked with Uncle Wu with his tail between his tails in a dejected manner, while Gu Zhu touched his chin, looked at Daddy's back, pouted his mouth, and expressed that Daddy had started to exclude himself from all problems again Habit.
He wanted to know why Dabing Daddy was not happy when he saw Ah Wan was the buyer of the big fat sheep.
However, regardless of any embarrassing things in the middle, as long as Ah Wang can get 500 million taels of silver, any difficult things will be easy!Could there be anything more important than repaying his family's debts?No!As long as he is not allowed to commit crimes, all problems will not be difficult for this young master!As long as the money is in place, everything is fine.
"So, Ah Wan, would you like to invite me to eat Huaiyang cuisine? I know a restaurant where the eight-treasure duck is very tender." Gu Zhu still insisted on her policy of hugging her thighs, "By the way, the red coral beads are also given to you." You wrap it up, you can give the banknote anytime, I'm not in a hurry."
Young Master Bai glanced at Gu Zhu, who was holding his hand and smiling beside him, and felt that today's spring breeze seemed to be mixed with Nurhong. He drank Nurhong, and after only one cup, he felt hot, and said simply: " How about now?" In case there are always people who suspect that he is threatening benefits with money.
——He took his own private house and never touched the money from the Cao Gang.
——Money is something that will always come back.
——Today’s February will never come again.
Gu Zhu couldn't wait to blink his left eye at Yu Chiyuan, and introduced: "Ahem, this is a guest from Erfang. I just met him too. He said he came with Sisan, who came back from Erfang's boat. I thought he was bored, so I asked him to come over to our place first, to see if there is anything we like, and buy one or two, by the way, his surname is Bai, call him..." Ah Wan...
Before Gu Zhu could finish his introduction, Bai Wang who was beside him took the end of the sentence, bowed to Young Master Yu Chiyuan, and said flatly: "Bai Wang, people call him Young Master Bai."
Naturally, Yu Chiyuan also saw all kinds of expensive accessories on Bai Wang's body, and immediately understood why the little bastard Gu Zhu was so kind to this person: "I am the Yuchi family of Yangzhou, Yuchiyuan."
"So it's the Yuchi family, I've heard of it a long time ago." The young man said compliments in vain, but his expression did not have the slightest hint of flattery or compliment.
Yu Chiyuan saw a little bit of Bai Wang's indifference towards him, and the arrogance in his bones would never allow him to pester Bai Hua like Gu Zhu, and even tugged on Gu Zhu's sleeve, and leaned over to whisper something Displeased: "I don't think he's a good person, don't play with him after slaughtering him."
Gu Zhu patted Yu Chiyuan's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I know it myself."
At the stall where the young masters were talking, Guanshi Guo rang the bell and asked his servants to carry out a beautiful coral bead, that is, a fist-sized night pearl lying in the middle of the red jade coral.The red coral is carved from blood jade, and a crowing blood bracelet has only a trace of red band, and it is worth thousands of gold.

Young Master Bai didn't intend to get involved, he just watched indifferently, while playing with the tassels of the Wufu coins he exchanged, he looked in the direction where the young master ran away, thinking, when Zhuzhu would come back again. return.
"Oh! Young Master Bai, why are you really here? This is... what are you doing here?" Suddenly a familiar voice came from the gate of the courtyard, and this person shouted loudly, attracting many dignitaries. The nobles and wealthy businessmen stared openly.
The young Bai Wang is used to standing in any line of sight, without any discomfort, and continues to hold the tassels of Wufu money by himself, looking at the people who are walking towards him - the second child of the Gu family, Gu Siting.
Gu Siting ran the boat in the wind and rain, his face was rough, but his facial features supported the face of the general's mansion, so that he would not be stunned.
On the way from the gate to the courtyard, Third Master Si greeted many acquainted officials one by one, many of whom used to have a good relationship, but now they just nodded slightly to him, obviously knowing that their second room is now separated. After the family went out, he, the concubine of the second room, has nothing to do with the general's mansion, the son-in-law, and the prince, so he is so snobbish!
Third Master Si endured this different treatment from the past, walked straight to Young Master Bai, and smiled flatteringly to Young Master Bai: "It's easy for me to find, I heard from the servants in my yard earlier that you and Zhu The younger brother ran away, so it was a joke."
Bai Wang is also extremely indifferent to this third master Si, this third master Si is not an important figure to their Cao Gang, it is just a matter of mutual benefit, but this mutual benefit relationship seems to be coming to an end, Bai Wang is in the general The mansion has heard that the second room where the third master Si lives has nothing to do with the general's mansion. In the future, if Gu Siting wants to get money from their water gang to hire people and boats empty-handed, it won't work. Either leave a hand.
"Well, Mr. Si." Young Master Bai nodded slightly. He didn't have any extra words. Today he came to the General's Mansion just to obey his father's order, and to come with him to see if he can still use the name of the General's Mansion and all levels Dealing with officials, secretly exempting some shipping taxes and fees, now it seems that Gu Siting is useless, so naturally there is no need to bother.
Gu Siting couldn't see anything from Young Master Bai's attitude, after all, this Young Master Bai has always been so indifferent to everyone, so he continued: "Here, Young Master Bai, there is nothing wrong with my family, why don't Don't just stand here, there are some things, I hope to discuss with the old gang leader, I don't know when the young master will return to the village, so he can take me in with him."
The Cao Gang is a collection of coolies along the Grand Canal near Yangzhou. They used to be water thieves, and later they became a freelancer. They recruited all the water thieves and strong men who earned money by working hard on the docks. , forming the basic manpower for water transportation that is indispensable to Daxing today, and even cooperates with the government.
Gu Siting and his uncle's north-south freight business did not have any shops, no ships, and they were stingy about renting ships, so they used the name of the General's Mansion to exchange for free shipping. What, it wouldn't be such a big bad thing if you think about it, it's just that Cao Gang wanted to use the favor of the general's mansion to exempt some ship taxes.
In the past, Gu Siting and the second head of the Cao Gang made a good promise. As long as he uses the boat of the Cao Gang for a day, the Cao Gang can mention his name. He is from the General's Mansion, and those officials, big and small, from other places, look at the General's Mansion's face , Always be polite to Caobang customers.Now that the deal was over, Gu Siting thought that if he had to think of other ways, he couldn't cut off the connection with the Cao Gang, otherwise his business with his uncle would be over!
Gu Siting just bought a large amount of tea from his uncle's spring tea at a high price, and sold it half-and-half. This time, all the losses from previous years have been filled, and by the way, I feel proud.
At this juncture, how can we separate from the Cao Gang?Do you want to spend money to buy a boat?
Gu Siting was in a hurry to transport tea, but since the second leader of the Cao Gang knew about the division of his family, he hadn't seen him, only the first leader asked Young Master Bai to come over and take a look, what are you looking at?Didn't they see that their families were divided?
"Master Bai, look, it's getting late, how about finding a restaurant and I treat you to authentic Huaiyang cuisine?" Gu Siting said in a low voice.
However, Young Master Bai was not interested in this, he waved his hand and said: "No, I have my own arrangements." Bai Wan also thought about inviting the young master to a meal, but he didn't want to bring anyone else.
Gu Siting smiled wryly, and wanted to say something to rescue him, but he didn't want to open his mouth before he saw Young Master Bai waving in one direction. Gu Siting looked up and saw that it was the plump fifth uncle holding him in his arms. The young master like a golden boy immediately looked at Young Master Bai suspiciously, and couldn't help but said: "I wonder why Young Master Bai didn't want to talk to me, it turned out that he had climbed a high branch, but don't blame me for not reminding me." But you, my fifth uncle, is the most impatient to deal with people in your profession, and he doesn't like to use his name to make foreign money. If you follow the path of my brother Zhu, it is even more impossible, even though he is younger than you You're only two years old, but unlike you who have been exposed to the affairs of the Cao Gang early on, Brother Zhu just cares about everything and only eats."
"Also, don't try to get my fifth uncle to help you by approaching the young master. The fifth uncle seems to have a good temper, but if your Cao Gang dares to use the young master, the fifth uncle can take over your Cao Gang Believe it or not?" Gu Siting actually didn't know about Fifth Uncle's ability, but he heard that Fifth Uncle had a personal relationship with Huainan Jiedushi, and was also referred to for a book, so he decided whether he was true or false, and made alarmist remarks.
Who knew that Young Master Bai's pitch-black eyes glanced at Gu Siting, frowned slightly, and said, "It's too vulgar." He and Zhuzhu made friends, and he had absolutely no intention of gaining the slightest advantage.
Gu Siting was evaluated by these four words, and he was a little embarrassed for a while, and he couldn't hold his face, but it was impossible for him to run away in anger because he was scolded as "vulgar". How dare you go on tea transportation?
Here the third master Si shut up like a quail, while the son-in-law Gu Jinchen walked in front of 'Fat Sheep Ah Wan' holding his jewels, 'Fat Sheep Ah Wan' is the nickname given by the little guy, Gu Jinchen felt coke when he heard it, and saw that the little guy said he was a new friend, and also saw that the little guy's new friend gave him a sum of 500 million taels of silver.
I heard that his surname is Bai.
The Bai family in Yangzhou has never heard of such ability.
Gu Wuye also heard from Little Zhuzhu that he had exchanged five blessing money with his new friend. This five blessing money is something in the palace, but the scope is too wide.
When Gu Wuye approached, he saw that the third son of the second room was also there, and the well-known young man named Bai Huang had a faint smell of water on his body, so he understood it, and smiled, "The son of Cao Bang Baiye?"
Bai Wang looked at Zhu Zhu in the big fat man's arms, always felt that the scene was quite impactful: "Exactly, I have seen the son-in-law." Bai Wang said, bowing at the same time.
Gu Jinchen didn't shout, and glanced at the third child in the second room with his phoenix eyes, as if he suspected that the third child brought this person to get in touch with his treasure, suspected that there were some ulterior secrets in it, suspected that the young master of the Cao Gang sent 500 million There is a prerequisite for two silver coins, and there is a need for something in return...
If it is really what he thinks, then the 500 million taels of silver is not acceptable-they take care of their family, and they are big enough to attract the wind.
But Gu Zhu, who was held in the arms of Dabing Daddy, heard the word Caobang, and still didn't quite understand the twists and turns in it, but felt that Dabing Daddy was a little distant and polite to Ah Wang, so he couldn't help whispering Big pie daddy asked, "What's the matter?"
Gu Jinchen shook his head, the countless conspiracies and intrigues in this world are not willing to pass on to his Gu Zhu.
So Gu Jinchen put the little guy down and said, "Didn't you mean to go out to eat out with your new friend? Go ahead, I'll let Guanshi Guo follow. Gu Siting, come here for me."
Gu Siting didn't dare not to go, and walked with Uncle Wu with his tail between his tails in a dejected manner, while Gu Zhu touched his chin, looked at Daddy's back, pouted his mouth, and expressed that Daddy had started to exclude himself from all problems again Habit.
He wanted to know why Dabing Daddy was not happy when he saw Ah Wan was the buyer of the big fat sheep.
However, regardless of any embarrassing things in the middle, as long as Ah Wang can get 500 million taels of silver, any difficult things will be easy!Could there be anything more important than repaying his family's debts?No!As long as he is not allowed to commit crimes, all problems will not be difficult for this young master!As long as the money is in place, everything is fine.
"So, Ah Wan, would you like to invite me to eat Huaiyang cuisine? I know a restaurant where the eight-treasure duck is very tender." Gu Zhu still insisted on her policy of hugging her thighs, "By the way, the red coral beads are also given to you." You wrap it up, you can give the banknote anytime, I'm not in a hurry."
Young Master Bai glanced at Gu Zhu, who was holding his hand and smiling beside him, and felt that today's spring breeze seemed to be mixed with Nurhong. He drank Nurhong, and after only one cup, he felt hot, and said simply: " How about now?" In case there are always people who suspect that he is threatening benefits with money.
——He took his own private house and never touched the money from the Cao Gang.
——Money is something that will always come back.
——Today’s February will never come again.
