055 Spend money to buy assessment
The subordinates of each court were grateful and kind, so they all came to the main court to kowtow to Gu An and Tang to express their gratitude. Both of them also accepted them with a smile.
Mingyuan lives in the Gu family. Although he is Gu Yan's master, he is old enough to be the grandfather of Tang and Gu An. It is difficult for both of them to give him red envelopes, so they have to give him porridge for a day in his name, even if they make red envelopes for him.
At night, the family had another meal. Mingyuan sat alone at the table, with vegetarian dishes on it. The servants at home kept a few vigils, and the others were bought in the kitchen to let them have a good New Year.
The servants of the Gu family had known that the Gu family would be kind and righteous, and would have rewards every New Year Festival and prepare food for them to celebrate the festival. So it was not surprising that the unexpected person was Mingyuan.
Mingyuan knew that Tang was kind-hearted, but he didn't expect that not only she was like this, but even the three Gu An were the same. The food of the servants was much better than that of ordinary families. There were sixteen dishes, chicken, duck, fish and meat, and the most rare thing was that there were vegetables on the table. It was winter now and I was in the border town. It was not easy to eat vegetables. A pound of vegetables might be more expensive than gold. Unexpectedly, Tang took them out and let the servants at home eat them. Such a host is really rare!
Gu Yan is still young, so she asked her to go back to sleep late at night. For the sake of her own health and to grow taller, Gu Yan did not refute and fell asleep early, leaving Gu An and others to stay up to the New Year.
The next day, Gu Yan got up on time to run, but this time there were not so many tails behind her, only Mo Xiang ran with her.
After running all over sweat, Gu Yan went back to her room to take a hot shower, and then went to the main room to pay tribute to Tang.
Tang and Gu An just started watching the night, and when they saw Gu Yan coming over to pay their respects, they felt quite regretful.
If I had known it, I would have pulled my daughter to stay together, so as to avoid getting up early in the morning to run. How great is it to be together with the whole family if I have this spirit!
Gu Yan couldn't care so much. She was worried about what Tang had just told her.
"Mom, are you really going?"
Tang glared at her and asked back, "What do you think?"
Gu Yan didn't say anything and looked at Gu An, "I don't want to go."
She wanted to learn to play the piano, but she never thought of living in someone else's house! Besides, she never thought of being a decathlon lady. She just wanted to save her life in this backward and pedantic dynasty. It doesn't matter whether she learned to play the piano or not.
Tang narrowed his eyes and didn't say anything for a long time. Suddenly, he didn't know what he thought of. His eyes lit up and he said, "You go to the exam, I'll give you ten thousand taels."
"puff"
"Ahem cough cough..."
"Bang"
"Oh!"
Gu An was rinsing his mouth when he suddenly heard his wife's words and immediately squirted. Gu Zhehan, who had just stepped into the door, was frightened by his mother's fierce behavior of persuading the exam and stumbled on the ground.
Gu Yan was also shocked by Tang's words. She stared at Tang's cleverness without blinking. She finally spoke under Tang's expectation.
"no."
I just want her to give up learning martial arts? There is no way!
Tang smiled and took the handkerchief and wiped the corner of his mouth, "Twenty thousand taels."
"no."
She is not short of that little money.
"Thirty thousand."
Gu Yan raised her eyes and glanced at Tang, and after a long time he replied, "No."
Tang's bidding price several times, Gu Yan disagreed. She was so angry that she gasped. After calming down, she said, "Fifty thousand taels, no more. You just go to the exam. You may not have to pass the test. I will pay so much money after I can't get enough money. Don't be more arrogant."
Gu Yan raised her eyebrows and glanced at Tang, "Sure."
The 50,000 taels of silver was enough for her to use for a long time, and it cost a lot to train the secret guards.
When the matter of cultivating secret guards was decided, Gu An told Gu Yan and Gu Zhehan that if you want to pick people from the secret guards you trained, you have to invest in the money when cultivating secret guards. The number of people you can pick depends on how much money they invest. The more you invest, the more people you choose, the less you invest, and the fewer people follow them.
The reason why Gu An did this was not to save that little money. How much did he and Tang have in the future will still belong to Gu Yan and Gu Zhehan. Sooner or later, there is no need to slap this power. He wanted to rely on their investment in to let them know that these secret guards were hard-won, so that the brother and sister would cherish the lives of those secret guards. Don’t act recklessly when encountering problems, think more, look more, and don’t end up throwing yourself in.
Gu Yan and Gu Zhehan were very unfair about Gu An’s arrangements, and they also felt that doing so was good. First, it could alleviate the pressure on Gu An and Tang’s current state, and second, it was really like Gu An said, which could make the two think more when they encountered problems. Third, after they fell in love with a certain secret guard, they could cultivate all their money. Spending all the money on one or several people can increase their loyalty and make them loyal to them. Fourth, there is competition and pressure, and each spent his own money to cultivate secret guards, invisibly divided people into several teams. If several teams want to excel, they have to make more efforts to do their best.
Of course, this method cannot be realized for the time being because there are too few people and the children are still too weak, and it is not yet that time.
The mother and mother set the transaction price while chatting and laughing. Gu An and Gu Zhehan were stunned and also secretly smashed their tongues.
My daughter-in-law is so rich, so she follows her daughter-in-law, and her daughter-in-law is a rich woman.
His mother is so rich! His mother is so partial! He is born to the same mother, so I don’t have any?
Alas! Forget it, who made me an older brother! It is really embarrassing that a real man is still calculating about such a little money with his younger sister!
Tang looked at his son's sad little eyes and covered his mouth and laughed, "Okay, I won't tease you anymore. Everyone in Tan just said that he would find someone who is in harmony, but he didn't say that this person who is in harmony must be a girl, so..."
Gu Zhehan's eyes lit up, and he immediately ran to Tang with a slut, smiling and pounding her legs, "Cough cough, that, mom, can I go too? Isn't that good?"
Of course, his son had to accept his diligence. While enjoying his son's filial piety, Tang poked Gu Zhehan's forehead.
"Silly son, can my mother be partial? They all fallen from my mother's body. Which one does not hurt? You have what your sister has. But, son, it's okay to give you money, but there is one thing. There is no good teacher in the border town to teach. If you can't get this assessment, you can go into the mountain."
Gu Zhehan was stunned, "Enter the mountain? Go into the mountain to train secret guards instead of his sister?"
It was a coincidence that he had been idle for the past six months and was about to talk to his parents about going to the mountains to train with his sister, but he was afraid that he and his sister would leave, and no one at home would miss them. Unexpectedly, his mother would mention it first.
Since his mother said that, he no longer had to silly talk about this matter, just nod to agree.
Gu Zhehan agreed to Tang's opinion and looked at Gu An. Seeing that Gu An seemed to care about everything and listen to your mother, he immediately understood that this matter was discussed by his parents yesterday.
Gu Yan didn't care whether Gu Zhehan wanted to take the exam or not. She only cared about when her mother gave her the 50,000 taels of silver.
