Chapter 493(1/2)

Gu San said again,

"It's getting late now, why don't we go order some goods?"

"Okay! Please!"

At that moment, a steward took several coolies who were delivering goods and led Gu San and the others to the warehouse. He opened the triple-locked warehouse door, invited Gu San in, and took out the delivery list.

He also cleared the shipment that he had received when he was in Beijing.

He took out the sheets and matched them one by one with the person in charge. They ordered the same ones, and the coolies came over to move one, and asked Gu San to check whether the seals and seals on it were intact. There was really a lot of this batch of goods.

, it was already midnight!

Outside, Si Lian and Mama Wang both dressed up as men and walked around on the pier with Zeng Luer for a while. Mama Wang whispered to Si Lian,

"Madam, there are many people on the pier!"

Naturally, the people Mama Wang was talking about were not the porters and coolies who were busy loading and unloading goods, nor the traveling merchants and travelers traveling at night, but those pretending to be small businessmen and hawkers, or the people who were stalking in the dark with gloomy eyes.

Si Lian nodded,

"It seems...Duan Xiongfei hasn't given up yet?"

It has been three days since the news of the death of Emperor Hongzhi came. In Tongzhou City, except for the whole city being in lockdown, all the Goulan Women's Branch closed, and the singing and dancing stopped, everything is as usual. The pier is still prosperous, except for the tall ship on the mast.

The red lanterns on the table were replaced with white lanterns, and the surrounding restaurants and teahouses became less noisy and noisy. All the diners lowered their heads to drink and spoke in lowered voices.

Silian's eyes swept across the tavern on the roadside,

"Let's go sit down!"

Si Lian asked the waiter to serve a large bowl of noodles and a plate of braised pork. Zeng Luer didn't dare to eat what the waiter brought, but Si Lian pushed it in front of him.

"Eat it!"

In the end, I was treated like that by my husband’s family!

When Wang's mother thinks of the past days, her stomach is full of bitterness. Although she is a servant today, the young lady has a gentle temper, the girls are obedient, and the eighth master respects her very much, which is a hundred times better than at home.

!

The three of them were talking for a while, but they saw a lot of people suddenly coming to the pier. They were all wearing flying fish clothes and carrying embroidered spring knives. The leader was riding on a horse. He was tall and had a heroic appearance.

Lian had never seen this person before, so she squinted her eyes for a while.

Si Lian heard the words and said,

"It turns out it's him!"

"I heard that this batch of goods is very large. I'm afraid it will take some effort to order it..."

Mother Wang was also a little confused, shook her head, thought for a while and said,

"So many of them are obviously here for Young Master Gu. Young Madam... would you like me to go over and take a look?"

"Mom, your eyes are really amazing. How did you see this?"

"Well... Don't worry, Mr. Gu, as long as you help me get this matter done, we will all be brothers, and you will be indispensable for us to get rich in the future!"

"Second Master, Gu San is missing!"

"Who is this person?"

"What do they mean? Are they planning to ask Gu Da to persuade Gu San?"

Zeng Luer was very envious of these Jin Yiwei, who looked very majestic in their bright clothes and angry horses every day. Zeng Luer was very envious. He stood on the street and watched a lot, so he naturally got to know them!

Firstly, she couldn't give birth, and secondly, her damn husband had a bad temper and was eccentric. He refused to farm the few acres of land at home, and he was so arrogant that he refused to go out to find a living. She had no choice but to go out for a walk occasionally.

, helping others to protect escorts, or acting as female escorts for young ladies who are traveling. Sometimes they go out for more than a month, sometimes for three to five days. It is very hard to sleep out and eat in the open air. The money saved is taken home to support the family.

!

Friends Yu Huai nodded. Although the Cao Gang was well-known, they didn't want to offend the Jin Yiwei. It was best not to interfere with the river. Everyone did their own things and performed their own errands, so they could have friendship with Gu San. , the Caobang would not offend Jin Yiwei for a Gu San!

Gu San naturally knew his concerns and smiled again,

It seems... that he heard the news and came to block Third Young Master Gu. Does this mean... that he hasn't given up yet?

Si Lian glanced at Mama Wang and was about to speak when she saw someone pull out from the crowd. It was Gu San's brother Gu Da. Si Lian raised her eyebrows.

"What did they bring Gu Da for?"

She didn't know it, but Zeng Luer did, and she responded in a low voice,

Zeng Lu'er blushed and scratched his head, lowered his head and ate the noodles. Si Lian and Wang's mother clinked their wine glasses to their lips, then turned to look out the window, where they could see where Gu San entered.

"Young Madam, I wonder when the Third Young Master will be back?"

The two laughed, but they had done their best to save face. They kept ordering goods until the fourth watch. They were finally done. Gu San took a sip of tea and said to the person in charge,

"You are in a hurry and wonder where the toilet is?"

After a pause he said again,

"These goods... I have to go out and call someone to move them. They won't be moved for a while, but don't worry, Mr. Er... it's just a matter of a day or two!"

Gu Da changed his clothes and tied up his hair with a hairband. The redness and swelling on his face from being slapped by Hong Tao had gone away. There was only a cut at the corner of his mouth. He had obviously taken care of it when he went out. After taking care of him, he was still the elegant and handsome young master. He was only being pushed around, but he looked a little more embarrassed.

She clicked several places in succession, and Zeng Donkey's eyes widened when she heard that.

Yu Huaiyou was surprised and asked quickly,

"Where are the two women he brought?"

"The Jinyiwei people outside have surrounded the entire pier. I sent someone to ask. They just said that they have something to see you. They just want to give our Cao Gang face and don't come here to take people. See, that's probably going to happen. Waiting for you to go out, Third Master..."

Having said this, Yu Huaiyou naturally had no choice but to say something about the situation, and immediately said with a smile,

Yu Huaiyou said,

Mother Wang sighed,

"As for women, who doesn't want to enjoy peace and quiet at home, let the men go out to earn money, and have children at home..."

When they came out, they had expected that Duan Xiongfei would probably go after Gu San. Gu San was not worried and said with a smile,

Si Lian thought for a while and said,

Mother Wang passed it on to Si Lian sentence by sentence, and Si Lian looked puzzled.

"Third Master, you are just right, but there is no need to rush at this moment. Our Caobang's golden signboard is standing there. You can pick up the goods anytime you want!"

Si Lian thought for a while and shook her head.

"Let's take a look..."

Mother Wang smiled faintly,

"It's not difficult. If you walk around the world for a few more years and develop some internal skills, then if you look at these people... you will find their movements, the way they exhale when speaking, and the strength of their legs and arms. You can tell by their posture that these people have internal skills, not to mention... look at the cake vendor, there are people who don't know how to deal with it even if they look at it. His hands are very rough, but they are not roasting in the furnace. Those who came out were trained in iron sand palm... The diners in the hall were just like us. They stared at the pier over there and looked at his legs under the table. They were thick and strong. At first glance, he showed that he was extremely skilled in lowering the plate. Stable..."

Gu San smiled and said,

"Don't worry, young lady, I'm not a fool. The mountain people will have a clever plan to escape when the time comes, and I won't let them catch me!"

Asked Wang’s mother again,

"Are those people still there?"

The three of them entered the tavern, found a corner near the window and sat down, and asked the waiter for a bottle of wine and two plates of food. Si Lian glanced at Zeng Lv'er, who was staring at the others eating his noodles and swallowing his saliva. , he was too young to be hungry, and he was injured. Even though he went out after dinner, he could see others enjoying the food, and he also became hungry.

At most it’s just smuggled goods!

"Yes, yes, sir, don't worry, I will definitely handle this well!"

The manager thought about it and said,

"The younger one led him to the toilet. I didn't wait for him to come back for a long time. When he went in, he saw that no one was there, so he hurriedly came back to report to you. Those two women... The younger one didn't pay attention. The younger one... I'll go back and look for him now. ?”

Gu Da was brought to Duan Xiongfei. The two said something. Si Lian couldn't hear clearly, but Wang's mother's ears twitched and she whispered,

"Duan Xiongfei said... Your brother Gu San'er is ordering goods in Caobang. After he receives the goods, he will ask people to move them to the Gu family's warehouse. You go over and have a good talk with him. According to the instructions in front of us, Discuss..."

"Second Master, don't worry, Mr. Gu will never embarrass you!"

"Third Master, have you committed a crime outside?"

The steward hurriedly lured him over. After Gu San went in, he didn't come out for a long time. The steward was surprised. When he went in and saw that there was no one there, he was shocked and hurriedly reported to Yu Huaiyou.

What he earned was hard-earned money. Although he got the big share of the business and Mou Biao and the others got the small share, he was the one who distributed the dividends to the brothers in the south. Even if the ship over there went out to sea, he would be beheaded. Risky!

He had spent a lot of money on the goods this time. There was no way he could let Gu Da and Duan Xiongfei snatch them away!

Over there, Gu San was ordering the goods, but Yu Huaiyou came over. His face was a little gloomy and he asked Gu San,

After Mama Wang made a comment, Si Lian and Zeng Luer looked at it without any trace. When they saw that it was just as Mama Wang said, they couldn't help but admire it.

"Mom is indeed an old Jianghu!"

Then he nodded his head with his chin,

Mother Wang nodded, pretending to turn her head and look behind her inadvertently,

"There is one in this hall..."
