Taming beasts starts with understanding bird language

At noon, Gu Chan slowly brought the white fox back to Wanyuanfang.

Originally, during this trip to Nifeng Valley, she made 30 million taels of silver from the Chang family in one go, and she was quite happy.

But as soon as she came back and sat down in the room, she was no longer happy.

It was because at that time, only Yuan Jie came to see her, and Di Lin had disappeared. Yuan Jie sat in front of her with her head down and a gloomy face, not saying a word. It was obvious that something was wrong with her.

Gu Chan glanced at her and said, "What's wrong? Why don't you say something?"

"Boss... I..." Yuan Jie lowered her head, unable to speak due to embarrassment.

"I'm telling you, I'm in a good mood now, don't force me to slap you." Gu Chan said coldly.

Yuan Jie was so frightened that her body trembled. Then she looked up and said, "Boss, please punish me! I am so useless. I failed to protect the imperial sword. It was stolen during the few days you were away."

"Ah?" Gu Chan jumped up and screamed in surprise.

Yuan Jie was terrified, her face turned pale as paper.

"boom!"

Gu Chan was so angry that she raised her hand and slapped the table in front of her, causing a deafening bang.

The next second, the table shattered and scattered all over the floor.

Yuan Jie was so frightened that her legs went limp. She knelt down in front of her and cried, "Boss, I deserve to die. You can punish me severely, I accept the punishment! I just beg you not to be angry, or you will get yourself into trouble. That would be terrible!"

"Where's Di Lin? Tell him to come here." Gu Chan roared angrily.

"He...he can't come, you have to go to his room to see him." Yuan Jie said crying.

"This is really outrageous. After such a big thing happened, he didn't come to see me on his own initiative, but asked me to go to see him. I must kill him." Gu Chan cursed angrily.

Then she stormed out angrily and headed towards Dillin's room.

Yuan Jie quickly stood up, wiped her tears and followed him out.

The two of them walked one after the other and soon arrived at Di Lin's room.

However, when they stood in front of Di Lin's bed, Gu Chan could no longer get angry.

It was because at this time, Di Lin was lying on the bed with wounds all over his body, unable to move. Not only that, he had more than a dozen deep wounds all over his body, and in some of the wounds, you could even see the bones inside.

It can be said that he was dying and was just holding on to his last breath waiting for Gu Chan to come back.

Seeing that Gu Chan had finally returned, he tilted his head and stared at her with wide eyes, saying very weakly, "Shopkeeper... I'm sorry... I was useless... I failed to keep the Imperial Sword..."

"Okay, stop talking and rest well." Gu Chan said softly.

"Boss, please take good care of Yuan Jie for me from now on. I don't think I can make it anymore..." Di Lin said painfully.

"Snapped!"

Who would have thought that at such a emotional moment, Gu Chan actually raised her little hand, pointed it at Di Lin's pale face, and slapped him in the face.

Yuan Jie stood aside, completely stunned.

Di Lin was beaten so hard that he was completely confused. He wanted to die but he was still breathing. He didn't want to die but he felt sorry for Gu Chan. One can imagine how embarrassed and conflicted he was at this moment!

Gu Chan angrily scolded, "What's wrong? This is just a small wound, not as serious as the one I got when I was beaten up by the spirit beast in the Nifeng Valley! Look at your lack of ambition, you don't take care of your future wife, and you let me take care of her for you, are you sick?"

"Ah... this... I... the shopkeeper..." Di Lin was dumbfounded and didn't know what to say at all.

Gu Chan sighed helplessly, and could only reach into the bag on her waist, take out the water bag, open it, and pour a drop of spirit beast blood into Di Lin's mouth.

After Di Lin took this drop of spirit beast blood, the wounds on his body healed immediately at a speed visible to the naked eye. He was originally dying, but with the help of the powerful spiritual energy of the spirit beast blood, he was able to nourish his body and save his life.

Seeing this, Yuan Jie finally breathed a sigh of relief and cried with joy, "Boss, it's all thanks to you! Otherwise, I don't know what to do."

"How dare you say that? What did I tell you when I left? I told you to protect the Imperial Sword. Now you know what's going on! If we lose this treasure, we'll be in big trouble." Gu Chan said angrily.

Yuan Jie could only lower her head and remain silent, not knowing what to say.

Gu Chan waved her hand and said, "Forget it. There's no point scolding you now. Just stay here and wait until he recovers. I'll find a way to investigate the matter of the Imperial Sword myself."

"Boss, I've already found the young master and told him that our things were stolen, but I didn't tell him it was the imperial sword. He will send his people to secretly search for us in Jiangnan City tomorrow. Why don't you go ask him?" Yuan Jie said in a low voice.

Gu Chan rolled her eyes at her in annoyance and left in anger.

After she left, Yuan Jie sat down beside the bed and took care of Di Lin.

On the other side, in Wan Peng's room.

At this moment, he was sitting behind his desk doing the accounts.

"boom!"

Gu Chan kicked the door open from outside, startling him. He looked towards the door and cursed, "Who is it? How dare you kick my door?"

"Why, no one dares to kick your door?" Gu Chan said coldly as she walked in.

Seeing that it was her who kicked him, Wan Peng quickly put on a smile and said, "It was you! I'm sorry for what happened just now! I didn't know you were back."

"Thirty million taels of silver will be delivered later. Please help me keep it safe." Gu Chan walked to the desk and sat down and said.

Wan Peng widened his eyes in shock, and could hardly believe his ears.

You know, Gu Chan had only been in Jiangnan City for a few days! Her Yao Duoduo Caravan had not officially started the medicinal materials business yet, so how could she make 30 million taels of silver in one trip?

At this moment, he felt that Gu Chan was bragging.

Gu Chan glared at him and said, "Didn't you hear me?"

"No, you've only been out for a few days? Did you really make so much money in just one go?" Wan Peng said in surprise.

"That's right. Don't you see who I am? It's so easy for me to make money from the wealthy families in Jiangnan City like you!" Gu Chan said proudly.

"Then which big investor did you make so much money from?" Wan Peng asked.

Gu Chan said indifferently, "Don't worry about this. Just help me collect the money later. I came to you now to ask if your people have found out who the thief is who stole my things?"

"Are the things that were stolen from you important?" Wan Peng asked curiously.

"It's not very important, but my things are always stolen when I live with you, and I feel very unhappy!" Gu Chan changed the subject.

Wan Peng suddenly felt like he was electrocuted. His body shuddered and his face turned ugly.
