Traveling through ancient times

Passing by a small flower bed, a woman wearing colorful clothes, holding a round fan, frowned and said:

"Busy, busy, always busy, Xiao Cui, go ask the adults when we can have time to go out. I'm almost bored to death!"

He looked up and saw three people coming over here. He didn't avoid them, but stared at them with his eyes wide open:

"...Gu...Gu Dalian..."

His legs were faster than his mouth. He had already rushed up to them, holding a round fan and stretching it forward, blocking the way of several people!

"Gu Dalian, it's really you, you're dressed neither male nor female, what are you doing here?"

Gu Dalian cursed inwardly: What a disgusting dog!

With a smile on his face, he said, "What does it have to do with you that I'm here?"

He caught up with the person leading the way, holding a round fan!

Gu Damei looked angry and said to a maid beside her:

"Go, follow her and see what that damn girl is doing in Fucheng?"

The maid hesitated: "...Auntie, Master has ordered that you are not allowed to ask anything about Master's affairs!"

With a "slap!" sound, the maid was slapped in the face:

"You little stinky girl, you are what the master says. You are mine now, and you dare to talk back? Hurry up and leave, or I will let the master sell you out!"

The maid covered her red face with her hands, tears in her eyes. She didn't dare to say anything more and hurriedly bowed and rushed towards Gu Dalian and the others!

"What a bitch, she only ran away after being pulled and beaten!"

Gu Damei cursed, with jealousy and resentment in her eyes!

My father has become half disabled, and my mother was almost half dead due to the abuse of my mother. If I hadn't been useful and had been tricked by my fourth uncle into becoming his concubine, I would probably still be a commodity to be appraised!

"Why can Gu Dalian and the others break off the relationship? And now they are getting better and better. I will step on their shoulders and make money desperately. In the future, I will definitely take away everything from them!"

Thinking of this, a cruel light flashed in Gu Damei's eyes, which frightened the maid serving beside her!

Meanwhile, Gu Dalian and others finally met Lord Guo!

"I, Gu Dalian, pay my respects to Lord Guo!"

Gu Dalian didn't dare to be presumptuous. In this imperial society, one must be polite and kneel down to show respect!

"We are family, no need to be polite, please stand up!"

Guo Jing hurriedly extended his hand to help, and Gu Dalian took the opportunity to stand up, smiling, and silently said in his heart:

Damn it, it’s so uncomfortable to be inferior to others!

The two sat down, and Guo Jing said:

"I received a letter from Brother Lin a few days ago. You are his adopted sister, and therefore also Guo's adopted sister. If you need any help, just let me know!"

Gu Dalian bared her teeth, beckoned Qi Huli and Yuzhu to hand over the things they were carrying, and said:

"I found some good stuff in the mountains and wanted to give it to you, brother!"

These food and drinks don’t count as bribes!

Two boxes of various canned foods, two cans of Laobai Fen, and two boxes of Yuzhenzhai snacks!

When Guo Jing passed by Shannan County, Lin Shiyu gave him two cans of canned pears and treated him to a drink during dinner. The taste is still unforgettable to this day. When he looked at the packaging, he knew they were from the same family, and he felt even happier!

The speech is much softer!

"I heard that Miss Gu came to Shannan County to do business. Have you found a good shop?"

Gu Dalian was happy that she didn't have to beat around the bush. She leaned forward and said:

"Thank you for your concern, brother. I have already found two shops, but I need your help for the other one!"

"Oh? Which shop?"

"It's the silver shop that was just confiscated... The price is a bit high. I want to use Brother Yi's connections to see if I can get a lower price."

Guo Jing raised his eyes. He didn't expect that the girl in front of him, who was only thirteen or fourteen years old, could be so generous. No wonder Brother Lin valued her so much. He couldn't help but become more serious!

"I know this silver shop!" Guo Jing thought about it and then matched it:

"I was in charge of this case. If you want it, 100,000 taels will be enough. Any more will be suspected of favoritism and corruption!"

In fact, the price quoted by the government was one hundred and five thousand taels, and two thousand less would do. However, Zhang Yaren thought that since the bid had just been put up, there should be someone who would offer a higher price, so he falsely quoted five thousand!

"I'll write you a receipt. You can take it and there will be no problem!"

Guo Jing didn't hesitate and immediately wrote a receipt, stamped it with his private seal, and gave it to Gu Dalian!

Due to the busy schedule, after just a short chat, people came to ask for instructions on various matters. Gu Dalian stood up and said goodbye, saying that he would treat his brother to a drink when he had time!

After leaving the government office, the three drove directly to Nanxi Yahang, met Zhang Yaren, handed him the receipt, and frightened Zhang Yaren so much that he almost bit off his tongue!

I didn't expect that this noble person had such a powerful background. Thinking that he probably already knew that I had raised the price without permission, I couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat!

"...Um... hehe... please forgive me, sir... I don't know how to recognize a piece of gold and jade. Let's go and complete the formalities right away!"

Trembling with fear, he took a car with the other three to the government office and went directly to find Zhang Sikong!

Zhang Sikong saw that it was an acquaintance from yesterday, with a bright and cheerful face and a smile:

"Miss Gu is here, what are you doing today?"

Gu Dalian pointed at Zhang Yaren and said:

"Sorry to bother you, Lord Sikong, to get the silver building red deed with Zhang Yaren!"

Zhang Sikong was secretly astonished in his heart. This little girl was really generous. She spent more than 10,000 taels yesterday, and directly spent 100,000 taels today. He couldn't help but smile even more sincerely!

"Okay, okay, congratulations to Miss Gu, it's a great location, you will definitely make a fortune every day!"

"Thank you for your good words, Lord Sikong!" Gu Dalian hurriedly took over the words. With good words, our business will surely prosper!

Because of Mr. Guo’s receipt, they only collected 2% of the stamp duty, and the total amount paid was 102,000 taels of silver!

Gu Dalian was very happy after getting the red deed. Now she had a foothold in the city!

He also asked Yuzhu to give Sikong twenty taels of silver notes, took the key to the silver shop, and then parted ways with Zhang Yaren!

Zhang Yaren was sweating all over at this time, not because of the heat, but because of fear!

Let’s talk about Gu Dalian going back. It was only about ten o’clock in the morning. After thinking for a while, she changed into a more festive outfit, invited her second brother and Gu Lun, and went straight to Li’s Mansion in East Third Lane, Hongning Street in the east!

When you arrive outside the Li Mansion, you’re struck by a sense of low-key luxury!

There are several steps in the courtyard, white walls, a red gate, and a very high threshold!

Yuzhu walked forward and knocked on the door knocker. After a while, someone opened the door. It was an old man dressed like a servant. I guess he was the gatekeeper!

"Who are you looking for?"

You are quite polite when you speak!

Yuzhu hurriedly handed over the name card in her hand and said:

"Please inform the old man that my master, Gu Xiangjun from Shannan County, is here to visit Old Madam Feng!"

The old man looked at Gu Dalian who had just gotten off the carriage and felt that she looked familiar, so he said:

"Wait a minute, I'll go deliver the invitation!"

Yuzhu bowed and said, "Thank you!"

The old man closed the door again and then went to deliver the invitation!

After waiting for more than half a minute, there was finally movement. The door opened and several people walked out. Leading them was actually Aunt Avi!
