Taming beasts starts with understanding bird language

Seeing that Gu Chan couldn't explain it, Yuan Jie couldn't help but ask, "Shopkeeper, aren't you the sworn brother of the Ninth Prince, and the future Seventeenth Prince of Tiancang? How come you don't know anything about your own royal relatives?"

"I used to be active in the border and Central Plains areas and had nothing to do with the royal family. It was this Ninth Prince's sworn brother, and it was that brat Xuanyuan Qing who deceived me. Do you really think I can be the Seventeenth Prince of Tiancang Kingdom?" Gu Chan said unhappily.

Dry!

It would be fine if she didn't mention this, but she gets angry as soon as she does.

If Xuanyuan Qing had not tricked her in the first place, there wouldn't have been a mess like that where the prince tricked her into going to Jiangnan to raise 5 billion taels of silver.

Five billion taels of silver!

She had never seen so much money in either of her previous life, which was in modern times, or her next life, which was in ancient times.

Do you think she is angry?

Ma Zheng said at the right time, "Okay, don't mention the matter of the Ninth Prince's brother, lest the boss gets upset again. Let's think about what we should do first after entering South City tomorrow, right?"

"In my opinion, we should first find a more secluded place to live, and then do some business in Nancheng to make our caravan famous. This way, we can escort more goods to Jiangnan, and it will also be convenient for us to do business in Jiangnan in the future." Yuan Ying said.

Gu Chan's eyes lit up and she said, "I never knew you have quite the business sense, just like my young wife."

"Thank you for the compliment, boss. I just learned some business skills from my father when I was a child. Besides, it is not a good thing for a woman to do business." Yuan Ying said shyly.

"That's not right. Men can do business, but women can't? I tell you, I will change this idea in the future. Anyway, my young wife is a business talent. Now all the business of my family is handed over to her. I think that although women are not good at fighting, doing business is not a big deal." Gu Chan patted Yuan Ying's shoulder and said.

She is a woman herself, so naturally she should stand on the side of women.

Women have a low status in this world. She cannot save all women in the world, but can she not save those smart women around her?

Yuan Ying and Yuan Jie looked at each other and both cast grateful glances towards Gu Chan.

As the saying goes, there are many good horses, but there are few good horse trainers.

Over the years, there are very few people who can truly appreciate the abilities of the two sisters. Most of them either look down on them or covet their bodies because they are girls.

How many people are there like Gu Chan who truly appreciate their abilities?

Thinking of this, Yuan Ying immediately clasped her fists and said, "Boss, thank you for valuing us women so much. In the future, we two sisters will definitely work hard by your side and live up to your expectations of us."

"Yes! If you give us instructions in the future, as long as we can do it, we will do our best." Yuan Jie also said.

Gu Chan thought about it for a while, and suddenly an idea came to her mind. "Then how about this, after you move into South City and live there tomorrow, don't sit around and go around South City to see if the women here usually use menstrual pads. Then you can find a way to sell them menstrual pads and see if they can accept them."

"Boss, are you planning to sell menstrual napkins in the Jiangnan area?" Yuan Ying asked curiously.

"Nowadays, menstrual napkins have been widely available in the Central Plains. Most women have abandoned expensive menstrual sticks and switched to cheap and easy-to-use menstrual napkins, so it is time to expand the market," Gu Chan explained.

Yuan Ying and Yuan Jie nodded repeatedly after hearing this.

They now carry sanitary napkins with them, so they naturally know that this thing is indeed more useful than a sanitary stick.

If we can really expand the market for menstrual napkins here as Gu Chan said, we will definitely make a lot of money in the future.

After Gu Chan arranged this matter for the two sisters, she looked at Cheng Hao and Di Lin and said, "Tomorrow, the two of you should not be idle. Go and find out who this Southern Wise King is. By the way, check his background and what kind of person his son is."

"Yes, boss." The two responded in unison.

Gu Chan nodded, then looked at Ma Zheng and said, "You keep an eye on the other eight people in the caravan. The task of leading the caravan is left to you, and I will find a way to deal with the Seven Stars Sect. Anyway, Qi Xingtong has been beaten up now, and the matter has been exposed, so we have to face it."

"Okay, I'll listen to you, boss. I'll take good care of the people in the caravan." Ma Zheng promised, patting his chest.

Gu Chan smiled with satisfaction. After arranging all these things, she let the five people go back to their rooms to rest.

Then she also lay down on the bed, holding the little white fox and prepared to go to sleep.

But at this moment, the little white fox huddled in her arms and said, "Master, I feel that there is a very strong aura of a mysterious beast hidden nearby, and this aura seems to be staring at us all the time."

"Really? Are you so sensitive? How come I didn't feel anything?" Gu Chan said in surprise.

[I can’t be sure either, but I just feel it’s very powerful.] said the little white fox.

Gu Chan suddenly got up without any sleepiness, put on a thick robe, and quietly went out with the little white fox in her arms, walking towards the outside of the post station.

After walking around outside the post station, the little white fox said with certainty, "Yes, I can now confirm that there is indeed a strong aura nearby that is locking onto us."

"Damn it, could it be that Qixingtong asked her mysterious beast to stay nearby and keep an eye on me?" Gu Chan said with a frown.

[Master, why don’t you catch a nearby mysterious beast and ask it, maybe you can get something out of it.] The little white fox reminded.

Gu Chan's eyes lit up, and she immediately put the little white fox on the ground and let it catch the mysterious beast.

The little white fox ran out quickly, and after a while, it came back with a toad in its mouth and put it on the ground in front of Gu Chan.

Gu Chan squatted down, stared at the toad and said, "I'm really embarrassed to have caught you here in the middle of the night, but don't worry, I won't hurt you. I'll let you go after asking you a few questions."

[Bah! Damn two-legged beast, you can kill me or chop me up as you please, I will never yield to you.] The toad lay on the ground and cursed.

"Hey! Damn it, you don't want to accept my toast, so you want to drink the penalty wine, right? I explained it to you nicely, but you didn't listen. I have to use some force on you." Gu Chan suddenly became angry and shouted coldly.

Then, she let the little white fox hold the toad in its mouth and follow her into the inn and walked towards the kitchen.

When the waiter saw Gu Chan coming in with a toad, he hurriedly asked, "Sir, what are you doing with a toad?"

"I'm hungry. Let's have some midnight snack." said Gu Chan.

"Ah? Sir, although we southerners eat everything, we don't like to eat toads! They are ugly and poisonous, and they don't taste good." The waiter hurriedly reminded.

Gu Chan waved her hand and said with a wry smile, "It's okay, it's the same even if the skin is peeled off, I'll lend it to your kitchen!"

After saying that, she led the little white fox and went straight into the kitchen with the toad in its mouth.

The waiter stood at the door, swallowing his saliva as he watched. He really wanted to taste what the toad tasted like.
