Taming beasts starts with understanding bird language

Time passed quickly, and half a month passed in the blink of an eye.

During this period, with the help of the Five Golden Flowers, the Great China operated smoothly on the Jiangnan River.

The common people in the Jiangnan area all knew that Gu Chan was suppressed by everyone in the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce this time and was forced to run the Yaoduoduo shop on the water, so everyone supported her and went to the mountains to collect herbs to sell on the Great China.

The problem of out-of-stock at Yaoduoduo store was thus successfully solved.

Of course, Gu Chan did not cheat anyone. She did as she said before. She bought the herbs at a reasonable price, processed them, and sold them at a low price. She also insisted on the principle of buying at a high price.

For a time, ordinary people in the Jiangnan area began to accept this new business model. Not only that, even people on merchant ships traveling on the Jiangnan River and everyone on the flower boats went to the Da Hua Xia to buy medicine.

In just half a month, Gu Chan had achieved promotion and profitability of the business model of buying by the dozen.

Unfortunately, due to the low selling price, the profit is naturally thin. The money earned by the Great China in half a month is not as much as what a regular pharmacy in Jiangnan City earns in three days.

Therefore, it is simply impossible for Gu Chan to use this method to earn an astronomical amount of money for border relief.

Inside Wanyuanfang.

That night, Gu Chan was looking at the account book and calculating the accounts in her room.

At this time, there was a knock on the door from outside. Wan Peng rushed in and sat opposite Gu Chan and said, "Oh no, something big has happened."

"Why are you in such a hurry?" Gu Chan said without raising her head.

"Now no one in Jiangnan City is willing to cooperate with you. Even my Wan family's business has been affected! No one has gone to my Wan family's gambling house to gamble in the past few days." Wan Peng said with a bitter face.

Gu Chan paused, slowly raised her head, and looked at Wan Peng with a stiff face.

At this moment, she was no longer in the mood to look at the account book, and she even felt powerless as she was surrounded by enemies.

Although she had anticipated this situation from the beginning, when the crisis really came, the pressure was difficult for ordinary people to bear.

Wan Peng said anxiously, "Don't just stand there! Think about what to do quickly. If this continues, our Wan family will be ruined!"

"I will leave Wanyuanfang with Baihu tomorrow and have less contact with you from now on. You can also release the news to the public, saying that the Wan family has drawn a clear line between me and you." Gu Chan said helplessly.

"Then what are you going to do?" Wan Peng asked worriedly.

After spending some time together, he had already regarded Gu Chan as a real brother. In the current situation, if he ignored Gu Chan, he was really afraid that Gu Chan would have nowhere to go.

Gu Chan sighed and said, "I'm going to live with the Chang family. The Chang family is big, and the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce can't do anything to the Chang family. But your Wan family is different. It's not easy for the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce to control you."

"You're overthinking it. The Chang family probably won't dare to accept you easily. Have you forgotten that Yan Xishan sent 1 billion taels of silver to the Chang family. After the Chang family sent the silver to the border, the entire Chang family's business began to be affected? Now the Chang family can only choose to protect itself, so they don't have time to care about you!" Wan Peng said.

Gu Chan bit her lip and suddenly felt troubled.

She also admitted that what Wan Peng said was true. Previously, because the Chang family helped her transport two batches of 2 billion taels of silver in relief funds to the border, they were blacklisted by Yan Xishan and the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce.

At present, the salt transportation of the Chang family has also been slightly affected. If you don't want to go wrong, you have to draw a clear line with her. There is no doubt that once she goes to the Chang family, it is equivalent to harming the Chang family!

The purpose of Yan Xishan and Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce is to suppress her and make her surrounded by enemies and unable to move forward.

Thinking of all this, Gu Chan couldn't help but stroke her forehead and said, "Damn it! You want to suppress me and isolate me, right? Fine, I won't bow to you."

After saying that, Gu Chan got up and packed her luggage.

Wan Peng was stunned, "What are you doing?"

"I will leave tonight and never implicate the Wan family again." Gu Chan said firmly.

"Are you planning to hide in Yingchun Tower in the north?" Wan Peng asked.

"Even in this situation, can I still go to Yingchunlou? If I really go, won't they suppress Yingchunlou again? I'm not that stupid." Gu Chan said unhappily.

Wan Peng said worriedly, "Where can you go in the middle of the night?"

"Why don't I just become a beggar? I've been a beggar before, and I don't mind doing it again." Gu Chan said stubbornly.

"Ah?" Wan Peng was stunned and screamed.

He really didn't expect that Gu Chan had such a tough personality!

Obviously, at this time, she only needed to go to the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce, admit her mistake to the old president Guo Huai, and then go to Yan Xishan to give him some gifts and say a few nice words, and everything would go smoothly. But she didn't do that, and insisted on fighting this group of people to the end.

This...how could he not be dumbfounded?

Gu Chan ignored all this and continued packing her luggage.

Wan Peng quickly stepped forward and held her back, saying, "Don't be like this. When you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. Why don't you go and admit your mistake to the old president, and then go to Yan Xishan and say something good. This way, you won't have to suffer so much."

"Fuck him! I won't bow to those bastards. Even if I become a beggar, I will never try to please them." Gu Chan pushed Wan Peng away and shouted angrily.

Wan Peng sighed helplessly, he really had no idea what to do with her.

Gu Chan quickly packed her luggage, put the imperial sword wrapped in a cloth on her back, picked up the bag, and left angrily with the white fox.

Wan Peng followed him down the stairs, there was really no way to stop him!

In the end, he could only watch Gu Chan walk away, feeling extremely sad.

However, for the survival of the Wan family, he had no choice but to listen to Gu Chan and spread the news overnight, saying that the Wan family had severed ties with Gu Chan.

On the other side, in the study room in the backyard of the Censorate.

"Hahaha……"

At this moment, Xuanyuan Lie, Yan Xishan and Guo Huai were sitting together drinking wine, listening to music and laughing happily.

Bai Jingtian sat aside, looking at the three people who were so happy, and felt sad for Gu Chan.

Just now, the imperial guard he had sent out to secretly keep an eye on Gu Chan came back to report that Gu Chan had been forced to leave Wanyuanfang and had gone to live in the dilapidated temple on East Street that was rumored to be haunted.

This directly shows that under the joint suppression of the three people, Gu Chan has now reached a point where he can hardly move forward.

Given the relationship between him and Gu Chan, he naturally didn't want to see Gu Chan being suppressed like this.

But Xuanyuan Lie was his master, and he could not go against his master's wishes, so for now he could only sit here and secretly feel anxious for Gu Chan, unable to help her at all.
