Destiny Koi, I'm cheating after rebirth

Lin Ruoyu couldn't help but look at her father with expectant eyes.

Mr. Lin felt a little uneasy and decided to do as Ji Wen Zheng said and find someone to find out the true identity of Mr. Li.

However, when he actually investigated, he found that the truth was much worse than he had imagined.

It turned out that the man was not only a dandy who was only interested in eating, drinking and having fun, but also a person of bad character and corrupt morals. When Mr. Lin learned the truth, he felt extremely heavy.

He realized that if his daughter really married such a man, her life would be ruined.

Mr. Lin felt extremely desperate and helpless, and didn't know how to help his daughter overcome her current predicament.

However, this is a story for another day.

Nowadays, Mr. Lin still has some doubts about Ji Wenzhen’s words.

But Lin Ruoyu was different, because she instinctively disliked Li Yang and was unwilling to marry him.

The appearance of this person in front of her might be a hope for her.

"Thank you, sir, for telling us about this today.

Could you please tell me your name, sir?"

Ji Wenzheng smiled gently and replied, "My surname is Ji, and my name is Wenzheng."

The woman nodded slightly, showing a shy smile, and said softly:

“My surname is Lin, and my given name is Ruoyu.

If this is true, Mr. Ji saved my life.

I will thank you very much in the future."

Ji Wenzheng waved his hand, "Madam Lin, there is no need. You two, I am sorry for being so rude today. I will say goodbye now!"

Ji Wenzhen stepped out of the cubicle and walked briskly to the entrance of the restaurant.

Gu Yan and his sister had been waiting for a long time, and when they saw Ji Wen Zheng coming out, they all smiled.

"Cousin Ji!" Gu Lin was the first to greet him, his eyes full of anticipation and excitement.

Ji Wenzheng responded with a smile, in a good mood.

Gu Lin couldn't help but give him a thumbs up and praised: "Cousin Ji, you are awesome!"

After the group went downstairs, Ji Wen Zheng was still a little worried.

He asked Gu Qingzhi softly: "Cousin, is it okay to say this?"

Gu Qingzhi nodded slightly to show her affirmation.

She lowered her eyes slightly, fell into deep thought for a moment, then looked up at Gu Yan and said seriously:

“Brother, if we want to take over this pastry shop and continue to run it, we must carefully investigate the father and daughter of the Lin family.

After all, we still have to find someone we can trust to help us run our business.”

Gu Yan understood his sister's thoughts, and he also thought it was necessary.

So, he nodded in agreement.

Not long after, the four of them arrived at the dental clinic.

Manager Yu, the broker, was already waiting at the door. When he saw Gu Yan and the others, he stepped forward to greet them enthusiastically.

"Mr. Gu, let's go out of town and visit the manor now.

It takes nearly two hours to go back and forth." Manager Yu reminded.

Gu Qingzhi felt a little helpless. She had just entered the city yesterday, but today she had to take a bus out of the city again.

And this time he left the city from the east gate.

The mule cart slowly drove out of the city, and the shaking body of the cart made people drowsy.

Gu Qingzhi looked at the scenery outside the window and prayed silently in her heart that she could successfully find the manor she liked this time.

Manager Yu told Gu Yan and the others about the general situation of the farm outside the city. After all, he had taken people to see that farm before, and it was not the first time.

The location of that village is a bit remote, with not many good farmlands, and it is backed by mountains, unlike other villages which are mostly flat land.

This is not the first time that the Zheng family wanted to sell this farm. They asked their brokerage firm to sell it a few years ago, but they failed to sell it after several rounds of attempts.

This actually shows that the location of this village is not good enough, otherwise it would have been sold long ago.

This time the bundled sale looked even more precarious to him.

If no one wants it after a while, he will have to talk to his superiors about it.

This muddy road was very difficult to walk on, and Gu Qingzhi was shaken all over.

Fortunately, she had prepared a medicine bag beforehand, and she took it out and smelled it when she felt unwell.

The four men who were traveling with her looked normal, and Gu Yan even took out a water bag from time to time to give her water to drink.

Seeing my sister looking so miserable, I was powerless to do anything.

Finally, when he heard Manager Yu say that they were almost there, Gu Yan seemed to hear the sound of nature.

When they arrived at the gate of the villa, Manager Yu got out of the car first to negotiate with the gatekeeper.

Gu Yan helped Gu Qingzhi get off the mule cart and walked slowly forward.

The two saw a magnificent manor in front of them. The vermilion gate was closed. Above the door hung a plaque with the four large characters "Izumo Villa" written in a flamboyant style.

Gu Yan looked up and examined the plaque carefully. The words on it were very well written, with vigorous and powerful strokes, and full of personality. He couldn't help but admire it for a while longer.

At this time, Manager Yu came over after the negotiation and told Gu Yan: "Mr. Gu, I have already negotiated with the guards in the manor. We need to wait here for a while. The manager of the manor will come to greet us soon."

Gu Qingzhi asked curiously, "Manager Yu, how many people are there in this village now?"

Manager Yu explained in detail what he had learned before: "The manager of this manor is named Zheng, and he is a distant relative of the owner of the manor.

After the farm is sold, he and his family will follow the owner to Hongzhou.

The rest were indentured slaves, a total of 249 men, women, and children.

The owner of these people said that they don't plan to take them away. If you need them, you can buy them together with the villa.

Otherwise, they will be exiled to the market and sold.”

Gu Qingzhi didn't know much about the slave market, so she asked, "What price can these people get in the market?"

Manager Yu shook his head and replied, “These are just hard labor and are not worth much.

These young and strong slaves in the village can be sold for around 700 wen to 1 guan of money, but this is already the most ideal situation.

As for the other servants, they are all subject to this standard."

Speaking of this, Manager Yu couldn't help but feel a little bit of pity in his heart.

He then added, "If Mr. Gu is interested in purchasing this manor, can you consider buying these slaves as well?"

After all, they are innocent people too.

When Gu Qingzhi heard this, her heart moved slightly.

She felt that there was something else behind Manager Yu's words, and there seemed to be some deep meaning hidden in them.

However, Gu Yan did not express his opinion easily, but just said: "If you really want to buy this manor, I will naturally consider it."

When Manager Yu saw that Gu Yan did not directly refuse, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Although he was very dissatisfied with Manager Zheng, he still had to complete the task first.

He knew very well that the fate of these people was in Gu Yan's hands, so he hoped to give them a chance of survival.

Everyone waited outside the door for a long time, and finally the manager of Zhuangzi arrived.

Manager Yu's face looked very ugly, and he cursed in his heart: What are you putting on such airs!
