When the wealthy people saw this scene, they all showed excitement on their faces.

They have spent so much effort just for this drop of spirit beast blood, and now they have finally got what they wanted. How can they not be happy?

Yan Xishan looked confused, "What do you mean?"

"Lord Yan, you just watch here for me. If anything goes wrong with this batch of silver of mine in the Jiangnan area, the emperor will cut off your head." Gu Chan said sternly.

Yan Xishan's face froze, and a hint of fear flashed in his eyes.

Gu Chan ignored him and said directly to the wealthy people, "Everyone, the water bag I put in this bag is the blood of the black unicorn and the big black bear. It is a mixture of the blood of two mysterious beasts. As for the effect of this blood, Master Chang has proved it to you. I will not say more. The price is still the same, 10 million taels of silver per drop. Hurry up if you want to buy it."

"I'll buy it. Give me a drop first."

"I arrived the earliest in the morning, so I should be sold first."

"Fuck you, I arrived earlier than you in the morning, so you should sell me first."

As soon as Gu Chan finished speaking, the wealthy people began to quarrel, and then they all squeezed forward, wanting to be the first to get the blood of the spirit beast, so that such a precious thing would not be bought up by others.

Chang Wei naturally stepped forward and began to manage order at the scene for Gu Chan.

Soon everyone started lining up and came up to Gu Chan one by one to buy spirit beast blood.

Without exception, after selling the blood of the spirit beasts, Gu Chan asked them to send the silver to Chang Mansion, which was then counted and managed by Chang Wei.

Wan Feiyan and her brother felt extremely uncomfortable watching this.

Originally, such a large amount of silver should have gone to the Wan family, but the Wan family was a small family in Jiangnan City, and it was still very stressful for them to manage such a huge cash flow.

On the other hand, Chang Wei of the Chang family does not have this problem.

So now, they could only watch helplessly as so much money flowed into the Chang family, feeling envious.

Yan Xishan stood aside and watched in astonishment.

He could never have imagined that Gu Chan could actually sell the blood of a spirit beast for ten million taels of silver per drop!

He really couldn't get so much money even if he wanted to, but when it came to Gu Chan, these wealthy people lined up to give her money.

This made him extremely envious and jealous of Gu Chan.

An hour later.

Hundreds of wealthy people who came here each bought a drop of spirit beast blood and took it away. At this time, there was only a little spirit beast blood left in Gu Chan's water bag.

Gu Chan shook the water bag, weighed it carefully and said, "You can't sell it anymore. There should be less than ten drops left in it. You have to save your life."

After saying that, Gu Chan quickly plugged the mouth of the water bag and put it into the bag around her waist.

After doing all this, Gu Chan said to Chang Wei, "Mr. Chang, thank you for your great help this time."

"I'm just repaying you for saving my life. You don't have to be polite." Chang Wei said nonchalantly.

"Then I'll have to trouble you to help me collect these ten billion taels of silver." Gu Chan said.

Chang Wei smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry, in the Jiangnan area, no one dares to owe my Chang family money. I will definitely help you collect this money."

"After collecting all the money, please help me hire a team of good escorts and have them deliver the money to Wuheng County on the border." Gu Chan ordered.

Chang Wei didn't ask any more questions. He nodded in agreement, then immediately said goodbye to Gu Chan and left.

As soon as he left, Yan Xishan began to tremble all over as he stood there.

Because he knew very well that the imperial envoy was going to the south of the Yangtze River on the orders of the emperor to raise silver for relief for the border. The original order given by the prince was that the imperial envoy must raise 5 billion taels of silver within half a year.

No matter how you look at it, this is something that is simply impossible to accomplish. However, Gu Chan and his team have only been here for less than two months, and they have already raised 1 billion taels of silver in the first batch!

If this continues, I'm afraid the imperial envoy will really be unable to complete his mission. By then, once the border rises and becomes the fiefdom of the Ninth Prince, he will inevitably grow into the biggest threat to the Crown Prince and the Second Prince.

But the Jiangnan area is the fiefdom of the Second Prince. He, the Chief Censor of Jiangnan, is unable to stop the Imperial Commissioner from making money in his territory. If the Second Prince gets to the ears of this, won't he be killed?

So at this time he began to feel fear, and he truly understood that the little ghost in front of him was far from as simple as he had imagined.

Gu Chan did this in front of Yan Xishan, naturally for the purpose of shocking him.

Seeing that he had turned pale, she immediately walked up to him and said, "Master Yan, I don't need to remind you what the purpose of the imperial envoy's visit to Jiangnan is. You know it very well. Now I have raised the first batch of 1 billion taels of silver for border relief for my master. Later, I will ask Master Chang to send someone to deliver this money to the border."

"I understand." Yan Xishan nodded.

"I still say the same thing as before. It's up to you to handle it. If anything goes wrong with this first batch of silver, you'll lose your head." Gu Chan said with a grim face.

After saying that, she turned around and left with Wan Feiyan and her brother and Yuan Jie.

Yan Xishan stood where he was, watching the four people get on the carriage and leave. Then he reached out to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead, quickly ran to the other carriage, and hurried back to the mansion to report the matter in a secret memorial to the Second Prince.

In the late afternoon, Gu Chan and three other companions returned safely to Wanyuanfang.

After returning, Wan Peng asked someone to prepare a table of good wine and food, and then the four of them called Wei Xing and celebrated in a side room.

After drinking for more than thirty minutes, Wei Xing said, "Little Boss, this time the Ninth Prince will probably be so happy that his face will break. The first payment is 1 billion taels of silver, which is enough for him to spend for a while."

"I hope he is still alive. He was assassinated last time. If this continues, I'm afraid he won't be able to bear it." Gu Chan said worriedly.

It has been nearly half a month since Xuanyuan Qing was last assassinated, and there has been no news from Ren Yin and Ma Zheng, who helped him in the past.

Needless to say, how worried Gu Chan was at this time.

Wei Xing said with a relaxed look, "You don't have to worry about him. The Ninth Prince is even worse than you. I would never believe that he would die on the border."

"It's hard to say. That kid is a little too arrogant sometimes." Gu Chan shook her head.

Wei Xing was about to speak when there was a knock on the door.

Then the door was pushed open from the outside, and a waiter came in and reported, "Young Master, Miss Xiao is here again, and she said she wanted to see Manager Gu."

"Hey! This woman is really difficult to deal with. Why is she here again?"

"Yes! She has no shame. She left in broad daylight so grandly, and now she comes back with a shameless face."

Wan Peng and Wan Feiyan said with disdain.

The two of them thought of Xiao Xiang's arrogant look when he left in anger during the day, and they almost burst out laughing!
