Chapter 80 The So-called Little Kid
In the next few days, after the brother and sister fulfilled all the details they had listed that needed to be inquired, they did not stay in the Yan family for long. When Yan Ming, who wanted to cultivate their relationship, came back from outside, the two had already left the Yan family, which made him feel quite disappointed.
Where did the Gu Xixian siblings go? Of course, they went to Tong Mansion. Since they planned to go to Northern Frontier, they brought forward their year of companionship. The two did not reveal anything and lived their daily lives as usual.
Yin Xiao, who had already learned the news from Yin Wei who stayed in the Gu family, didn't know what the two did at the Yan Mansion, but seeing that they returned from there unharmed and there was no change in their behavior, he did not investigate further. After all, the foundation of an old family like the Yan family was not something they could easily touch.
But he didn't expect that the two little guys really didn't treat him as an outsider. Not only did they tell him in detail about their own relationship with the Yan family, they also told him everything about Ning Anwei. While he was moved by their trust, he was also amazed that his uncle was a real blind cat that caught a dead mouse and made a fortune.
"Brother, can you tell us in detail about the situation in the Northern Frontier over the past ten years?"
Yin Xiao, who was still immersed in the happiness of his uncle's luck, came back to his senses when he heard Gu Xihao's question. He thought about it for a while and figured out the little guy's intention. He frowned and said, "You two want to go to Northern Xinjiang in person?"
The two nodded affirmatively. As they said before, if you want to hold the kite firmly, you have to hold the kite head in your hand. If you have never seen it with your own eyes, how can you put your own safety in danger in the future?
Yin Xiao did not raise any objections. As the son of the Zhenguo Mansion who made his living by martial arts, he even thought that this was a matter of course. What was the point of taking risks? Life is full of dangers. Strong grass cannot be grown in a greenhouse.
The three of them were already in the study. He took out a map from the bookshelf and spread it out, inviting the two to take a closer look. He pointed to a deep red line in the north and said, "This is the northern border of our Daling. As the border between the two countries, it has never been peaceful there. Frictions between the two countries often occur. It is a real mixed place. But at the same time, it is indeed the best hiding place. Your ancestor was a great talent, so it is reasonable for him to think of dispersing his troops here."
Then he told them in detail about the major and minor events in Northern Xinjiang over the past ten years. The two listened and nodded, memorizing all the precautions. Chaos is full of dangers, but it is also the easiest place to survive.
"Grandfather once guarded the Northern Frontier for eighteen years. So, although our Zhenguogong Mansion is now stationed in the Southern Region, there are still people available there. There has been constant news from the Northern Frontier. If you set a date, I will let your cousin Yang bring the previous few Yin guards to accompany you." Seeing that the two wanted to refuse, he waved his hand to signal to listen to him: "Although you two are not my aunt's biological children, my aunt and her family love you as much as her own children. I know that you two are also truly filial. We are not blood relatives, so there is no difference. Even so, being too polite is awkward."
"Then thank you, cousin Prince." Gu Xixian thanked him generously, and secretly thought in his heart, if he was not afraid of being accused of being too greedy, he really wanted to take those Yin guards in. After all, they are quite convenient to use.
"Come on, little cousin, didn't you pay Yin Shiyi and the others too much for running errands? You've made everyone in Yin Weiying panic." Yin Xiao suddenly changed the subject, and Gu Xixian was stunned on the spot. She said blankly, "It turns out that men are also so talkative."
After saying that, he quickly covered his mouth, then smiled and explained to his two brothers with embarrassment: "I'm not talking about you, it was just a slip of the tongue."
"Sister, the more you explain, the worse it gets." Gu Xihao reached out and tapped her forehead, then said to Yin Xiao, "Brother, I didn't mean what I said, so please don't take it to heart."
Yin Xiao glanced at him and said, "Brother Hao, you are being so formal. She is your sister, and even more so my sister. Relax a little."
He patted his shoulder and turned to Gu Xixian: "Xiaoxian, did you really pay Yin Shiyi and the others 10% for their errands?"
Gu Xixian nodded, then counted on his fingers for him to hear: "It's reasonable for Uncle Yin Shiyi and his men to take this 10%, because it includes several expenses. The first is the hard work of running back and forth, the second is the protection fee for protecting the goods, and the third is the marketing fee for finding buyers. If we hire people for each of these separately, the risk is not only high, but the expenses are also inevitable."
"It is their job to work for their master." Yin Xiao still felt jealous. This was a huge commission.
Gu Xixian disagreed, "Brother Prince, not to mention that Uncle Yin and the others only belong to the Duke of Zhenguo Mansion, protecting us is an extra thing. Even if we reluctantly regard ourselves as proper masters, they are also normal people. Who doesn't have their own little thoughts, and who doesn't like to have their own little money. We can make them happier and more willing to protect us within our capabilities. Isn't this killing two birds with one stone?"
Yin Xiao nodded: "You have a point. Then let them follow you from now on."
Gu Xixian: Do you think I'm a big shot? I'll use my money back to appease Yin Wei's heart...
Her heart was beating fast, but she said, "That's great. By then I'll be familiar with them and it will be easier to command them. Brother Prince is really thoughtful. Brother Prince is really a good boss who cares about his subordinates."
Looking at her typical insincere speech, Yin Xiao secretly laughed. It was fun to tease a little girl. "I still have to thank Sister Xian for providing me with this good idea. Sister Xian is really the best sister in the world."
Gu Xixianyan... Don't think that I won't blame you in my heart just because you praise me, you stingy person, huh.
Gu Xihao... Sometimes my sister is extremely smart, but sometimes she is very childish. My cousin, the prince, is obviously teasing her, but she still gets angry. I had no choice but to interrupt their conversation to prevent my sister from getting really angry: "Brother Prince, I hope you don't tell the teacher and the teacher's wife about this, so that they don't worry."
Yin Xiao nodded and agreed: "Don't worry, I'll keep this secret from my ears."
After all, this was the Gu family's business, and it also involved the Thirteen Protectors' family affairs. Apart from giving some protection, no one else could interfere. However, he still admired the two's ability to hide things. For such a big thing, the two of them managed to remain indifferent and didn't reveal any wind. If they hadn't confessed to him today, he would never have thought that the two of them had hidden such a big thing. These two people are not big, but their hearts are really big. Is this what they call a little devil.
