Farming with the get rich system

Gu Yuqiu, like the villains in all goofy dramas, had an extremely miserable childhood.

As the bastard son of the Gu family, his birth is not even the icing on the cake for this family, it's like the hen in the yard has laid two extra eggs.It's a joy to behold, but it's also so commonplace that it's nothing to celebrate.

From childhood to adulthood, her mother who was a concubine said to him the most every day that she scolded him for being worthless. It would be better to give birth to a daughter. If she was a daughter, she would be able to get a dowry. Twelve points of effort, but not a penny of family property.

Gu Yuqiu grew up to be six years old, and the mother who nagged him every day to make progress was suffocated to death by a rare lychee stuck in her throat. Before eating this lychee, she was born in a small family. My mother has never even seen a bigger watermelon, let alone such a precious fruit.This lychee was brought back by my father when he went out to Lingnan, and it was considered as a birthday present for her. She held it in her hand and looked at it carefully for a long time. Turning white, he fell to his death.

After the mother died, the attention of the father and the aunt was always on the older brother Gu Yuchun who was ten years older than him. He lived in this family since he was a child like a weed that no one cares about. Only that person is tall and tall. The burly second brother rides on his head all day long, domineering and robbing him of clothes, toys, books, whatever he can.

So from then on, Gu Yuqiu encouraged himself that sooner or later he would replace his elder brother, the eldest son and grandson, as the head of the family. This cold wait.

For all of this, he did not hesitate to steal, rob, cheat, try his best to lose his morals, and even if he had his life on his hands, he wanted to trick the Gu family into his hands. Now he was only one step away from the success he wanted in his heart. The little bastard in the wilderness suddenly appeared, once again took away the position that should belong to him, and pushed him completely into the abyss.

At the end of autumn and the beginning of winter, the coldness of the year is approaching.

Gu Yuqiu stood in his own warehouse with his hands behind his back, looking at the brightly colored silks and satins in the warehouse, ready to go, looking forward to the days that had been planned in his mind for nearly 30 years.Although that brat Gu Nanting paid out of his own pocket to temporarily relieve the urgent needs of the Gu family, but this year the price of mulberry silk is expensive, and the price of silk and satin has also risen accordingly. As long as he and Wu Liang get rid of the silk and satin in their hands, the silver they earn will be at least as much as usual. three to four times.

As long as the money is in his hands, and he manages it properly, sooner or later he will take the deteriorating property of the Gu family into his pocket. At that time, let alone that brat Gu Nanting, even if his elder brother Gu Yuchun comes back to life I am not afraid anymore.

"It's not good! It's not good! Why are you still here when the disaster is imminent!" Gu Yuqiu's longing was quickly interrupted by Wu Liangsha's beautiful call.

Gu Yuqiu turned around, with a smile still on his lips: "It's all right, brother Wu, what are you busy with? What's going on?"

"What's the matter! It's not that damned little bastard of your Gu family. He has launched a large number of cotton fabrics three days before us. The price is only one-fifth of silk, and it is more warm and cold-resistant, strong and bright. Now the same The merchants we negotiated with are going to return the list and go to grab the cotton cloth." Wu Liang cursed out of breath: "I told you a long time ago, I told you not to put all these goods in your hands. Stock up on rare things, what timing are you waiting for! Now it’s ready, and you can’t sell a single one! Tell me, that little bastard has lived under your nose, what is he doing? Don't know how to be on guard?"

"Cotton? You mean cotton?" Gu Yuqiu couldn't believe his ears: "I know this little brat has grown a large area of ​​cotton, but the price of cotton weaving is not much cheaper than silk, and the color is also different. Far less gorgeous than silk, how could he sell so many cotton cloths at such a low price at once?"

"You ask me, who do I ask? I told you that this little bastard is not an ordinary person. If he has no skills, how could he squeeze out the property of my ancestors for several generations? How could those lipsticks and soaps be ordinary? Things made by people? Just such a person, why don’t you just make him? It has become a disaster today!” Wu Liangyue became more excited as he spoke, and involuntarily picked up Gu Yuqiu’s collar: “Say it! Are you colluding with that little bastard to harm me! Tell me! Tell me!"

"How is it possible? You know that I have always been at odds with my elder brother. Besides, even though cotton is cheap, silk is still silk. How could this group of people just say no to it?" Gu Yuqiu's brain was spinning rapidly. Did not come up with a reason.The silk in his hands was woven with great difficulty by a weaver who spent a lot of money. If he can't sell it now, the weaver's money, the large sum of money paid to Gu's family earlier, and the ransom for that singing girl Yunyan In order to put all his eggs in one basket, he also mortgaged the house he lived in when he separated to the bank. If the money does not come back, he will have nothing at all.

"You are also in business, don't you understand? Those bastards did it on purpose to keep the price down! I thought you were a sensible person, so I did this business with you. I didn't expect you to be an idiot !" Wu Liang punched Gu Yuqiu on the left side of the face: "Get out now! Get out and find a way! If you can't get rid of this batch of silk within ten days, I'll drag you to the officer immediately. "

Gu Yuqiu was punched for no reason, his mind went blank, he was pushed out by the exasperated Wu Liang, and walked down the street in a daze.

It turns out that it only takes a moment for a person to fall from the top to the bottom.

Just now, he was still thinking about how to wait for these silks and satins to be taken off his hands, so that his own family would be able to fight against the Gu family.

Just now, he was still admiring his seamless plan.

Just now, he was still thinking that he had lived up to his biological mother's expectations after all.

As Gu Yuqiu was walking, he was bumped head-on by a hurried porter. When his body hit the ground heavily, he suddenly woke up and calmed down quickly.

Those words just now were just Wu Liang's one-sided words. He was kicked out before he had time to argue with others. Now is not the time for him to be so decadent.

It is easy for a person to be blinded by a little setback when everything is going smoothly.

He has been planning for so long, and he doesn't believe that God will treat him so unfairly, let him fall short, and he must still have a chance to survive.

Encouraged by himself, Gu Yuqiu got up from the ground, turned his head and walked back to the warehouse where he was driven out just now, raised his hand to salute Wu Liang, and pointed at Wu Liang. The nose said: "It's not about me alone. Instead of you and I fighting for both sides, it's better to find out the reason seriously. The slap just now is equal to you and me. If you want to see the official, I don't care. The big deal is you. I'll go into the classroom together."

After Gu Yuqiu said that, he asked Wu Liang for the orders of those merchants, and was going to go door to door to find them.

***

In the past few years when Gu Yuqiu set up his own business to do business abroad, he also made several friends and connections. Wu Liang was one of them, and there was another named Shen Jiang. After several times of contact, both of them feel that they are very close to each other.

Among the people who returned the order this time, only Shen Jiang only asked to reduce the order quantity by half, which is already the utmost benevolence for friends in the business field.

When Gu Yuqiu took those orders and asked everywhere, only Shen Jiang accepted his invitation.

In the private room on the second floor of Xinghua Building, Hong'an Street, Water Source City.

The round table was filled with sumptuous food and wine, and Gu Yuqiu held out a cup as a toast, indicating that he wanted to have a drink with Shen Jiang: "Brother Shen is able to come to the banquet today, brother Yu is very grateful, come, come, I will toast you."

Shen Jiang also picked up the wine glass, but shortened the wall of the glass to express his apology, raised his head and drank the fine wine in the glass, and said straight to the point: "Brother Gu Xian is so kind today, brother Yu knows what it means, and I don't want to share with you here. Brother Gu Xian is going around in circles, I only hope that you and I will look at our past friendship, and after the matter is over, you and I can still be like today."

"Brother Chen, what are you talking about? No matter what the situation is, I will treat Brother Shen as my own brother." After Gu Yuqiu finished speaking, he poured two more cups of wine, and talked with Shen Jiang again. Chopsticks of fresh and tender fish.

"In that case, then I'll be blunt." Shen Jiang drank a glass of wine, looked up and said: "Your little nephew is really not an ordinary person. He has been in this Xinghualou since autumn He booked a house and invited all the cloth merchants on Jiangnan Road to have wine one by one, and he never refused to come, regardless of the size of the order. I also came to eat once, and I signed three times when I saw that his samples were really good. An order of [-] horses. Later, he didn’t know where the news came from, and he heard that the imperial court would conscript soldiers in the coming year, so he donated a batch of cotton cloth to the military camp on his own initiative, saying that the cotton cloth he made was cheap, warm and strong, and the most suitable It was worn on the border guards. The army over there was overjoyed when they saw the cotton cloth. For a while, the eunuch who repaired the book praised his work. The eunuch then turned to play, saying that the cotton cloth made by your nephew is simple and unpretentious. It is both beautiful and good. People's livelihood. Today's aristocratic families rely on the prosperous times to make great achievements, advocating silk and satin and other things, so extravagant and popular, there will be civil disturbances over time. Today, the prefect is praised for being able to know how to live in peace and prepare for danger, and specially ordered the palace The Zhongneifu will halve the amount of tribute satin this year, and allow cotton cloth to enter the palace, so as to promote thrift."

Shen Jiang sighed while talking, and patted Gu Yuqiu on the shoulder: "Nowadays, these rich households in Jiangnan count as one, and they all prefer cotton and abandon satin. No one dares to buy silks wantonly, so those Merchants will return your silks and satins one after another and buy cotton cloth instead. I am afraid that the silks and satins in your hands will not be easily sold within three to five years. Right. There are many and many silk merchants who have lost money like you this year, and everyone's life is not easy, so my brother, let's think about the future."

Holding the wine glass, Gu Yuqiu felt a coldness in his heart.

Silk and satin are innocent, and neither is cotton.

But once these two things are connected with national affairs and people's livelihood, then what is right is also wrong, and what is wrong is also right.

Kings want to be thrifty, so no one cares about expensive silk.

Now, it is really a situation where he can never turn over no matter how prepared he is.

"Actually, if you want brother Yu to tell you, brother virtuous, it's better to intercede with your little nephew. After all, you are also a family, and one family does not speak two different languages..." Shen Jiang's voice did not As soon as it fell, Gu Yuqiu with a cold face on the side immediately overturned the table, and the cups, saucers, and delicacies all returned to the ground.

Gu Yuqiu stood up, spared Xiaoer who came to check the situation when he heard the loud noise, and walked towards Gu's house with his eyes fixed.

***

Compared with the gloomy clouds and mist on his side, Gu's house is preparing for the winter solstice festival, the maids and servants are busy, and the courtyard of Gu's house is full of lights and festoons, which is very lively.

As the price of cotton cloth kept rising and the market was getting better and better, Gu Shen received more than 40 taels of payment in just one month, and many cloth merchants directly signed a five-year supply list with him.

Now, the entire Gu family has to rely on Gu Shen's support to survive, and Gu Shen has become the head of the Gu family without a title.

And those elders and relatives who are like grass on the wall are also thinking about how to formally welcome Gu Nanting, the serious young master of the Gu family, back to the family, and let him be the master of the family in an upright manner.

In the front hall where people come and go, the first person who noticed Gu Yuqiu was the little fat guy Gu Nanzhou. At that time, he was sitting on Su Yan's lap and honestly helping the big maid Cuicui to fold the red paper for window grilles. .

During Gu Fang's illness, he was always by Su Yan and Gu Shen's side.

Without Gu Fang's frequent beating and scolding oppression and uncontrollable doting, this little fat man became much more sensible than before, and his knowledge also improved a lot.

Seeing Gu Yuqiu's face sinking like water, Gu Nanzhou shrunk his neck instinctively, lay down next to Su Yan's ear and bit his ear: "Sister-in-law, third uncle is here."

Su Yan raised his head in response, and Gu Yuqiu happened to come close. He immediately put down the little fat man on his knees and stood up, calling respectfully and distantly: "Third Master, are you here?"

"Where's Gu Nanting?" Gu Yuqiu's tone was not kind, and the look in his eyes was even more frightening.

Cui Cui, who was cutting the window grilles, also stood up, protecting the fat guy Gu Nanzhou behind her.

"Third master, the young master is talking to the elders of the Gu family in the inner hall. If you want to see him, you may have to wait for a while." Su Yan stood upright in front of the unfriendly Gu Yuqiu, and there was nothing in his eyes anymore. old cowardice.

"You, a slave bought by my Gu family for a few taels of silver, are also rushing to block my way? Gu Nanting didn't teach you the rules in the past, did you?" Su Yan grabbed his wrist.

"Third master, I am the wife's room left by my wife to the young master. Even if I haven't saluted, I still have the fate of my parents. Now the young master has the final say in the Gu family, and the rules that the young master gave me are no rules. If the third master can't see it If you are used to it, then you can stop walking around here.” Su Yan let go of Gu Yuqiu’s wrist and took a step back, walked up to the little fat man Gu Nanzhou and touched Gu Nanzhou’s head: “You lied to my step-wife earlier, which made my step-wife Now I am still lingering on the sick bed, young master Kuanren, I have never argued, I never thought that you would come to the door by yourself."

"You! You unruly beggar! I must teach you a lesson for Gu Nanting today!" Gu Yuqiu has suffered enough anger in the past few days, and he never thought that the most inconspicuous little beggar Su Yan would actually He even dared to make him angry, he said he wanted to get back all the face he lost in the past few days on Su Yan.

"Third Uncle! Who are you trying to teach your nephew?" The noise in the front hall finally spread to the back hall. Gu Shen, who was talking to the elders, turned out of the blocking screen and walked to the front hall. In front of Su Yan, there were several other elder relatives from the Gu family who came out with him.

"You finally came out." Gu Yuqiu sneered and said, "I don't know that you are in charge of the Gu family now? Are you the elder of the whole family? Are you going to die?"

"Third Uncle, have you forgotten that I, Gu Nanting, is the eldest grandson of the Gu family. Now that my parents have passed away and my stepmother is sick, if I am not in charge of this family, is it possible that Third Uncle is also in charge?" Gu Shen said. Taking a step in Gu Yuqiu's direction, his scorching gaze created an invisible sense of oppression towards the opposite side.

"Little thing, you were the one who did the cotton cloth thing. Your father is my biological elder brother. Could it be that you have to push me to a desperate situation before it's over?" Gu Yuqiu's aura weakened after all: "Forcing me to death What good does it do you?"

"Third Uncle, when did your memory become so bad? Back then, you drove the Gu family to a desperate situation, and then my nephew rescued himself. Now what does Uncle San want to tell me about blood relatives? Forgive me for disagreeing. "The sneer in Gu Shen's heart was a hundred times colder than the one on his face, why in the world would there be such a shameless person who would blame all his mistakes on others.

"Don't agree? Okay! If this is the case, then you can't blame me." Gu Yuqiu issued an ultimatum to Gu Shen, and Gu Shen also hugged his shoulders and waited quietly for what he could do next.

Not wanting Gu Yuqiu to wipe his face, he suddenly pointed at Gu Shen's nose and yelled, "He! Gu Nanting! I'm so mad at my father! I have already been expelled from my Gu family! How can such a person be the head of the house!"

"Fathers, elders of the clan! Gu Nanting went out to spoil the family tradition by messing around with flowers and grass! It is a big taboo of my Gu family! My elder brother Gu Yuchun also died because of him! It has only been two years since the first Patriarch's bones are still not cold. How can someone be the head of the family! How can he regain control of the whole family! My brother’s life! I take care of the family tradition! Can it be changed just because of a few taels of silver?!”

Gu Shen hugged his shoulders and watched Gu Yuqiu's performance quietly. He thought about how to pour dirty water on his opponent when he really had no other skills. If he still had room to fight back, he would definitely It's impossible to pin your hopes on bringing down this man's reputation.

"I prove it! The young master didn't kill the master!" A firm female voice suddenly interrupted Gu Yuqiu's immersive performance, attracting everyone's attention.

The eldest maid, Cuicui, stepped out of the crowd in good time, her hands clenched into fists, as if she had made up her mind: "Everyone, I am the step-wife's personal maid. I have served by my step-wife for many years. It proves that the master did not die in a hurry because of Young Master Ting, but was killed by the conspiracy of the third master Gu Yuqiu and his step-wife! The young master is innocent! He is qualified to be the head of the family!"
