Chapter 768: Stab the sore spot
Gu Youwen's family and Gu Xiaoi are very unhappy. Qian Guangzong, a loser, eats and uses his old Gu family's money. Now that they see that their old Gu family has a profitable business, he actually wants to get a share of the pie.
Gu Xiaoi said calmly: "Brother-in-law, this is my old Gu family's business. It has nothing to do with your Qian family. You should go back to your yard. You are still staying in your mother-in-law's yard this late at night. If word gets out, It doesnt sound good.
Qian Guangzong sneered, poking at Gu Xiaoi's sore spot: "Then it will be nice to hear about your widowhood?"
Gu Xiaoi was stunned, her face instantly turned black, she covered her face and cried: "Qian Guangzong, you bastard, you dare to say this, my mother will never let you go!"
Gu Xiaoi was married to Ma Qingwen when she was in her hotown, and she was no longer a girl. However, Ma Qingwen's life was not good. He was killed by a group of evil people on the way to escape, so Gu Xiaoi beca a widow.
But she was so arrogant. After she joined the Li family, she discussed with Mrs. Gu to hide the fact that she was a widower. She said that she was still a young girl who had delayed her marriage because she was running away from ho, so that the Li family would give her more money. She looks for a match. It would be best to marry a son of an official family and beco the young wife of an official family directly.
Mrs. Gu loved her youngest daughter the most, so she imdiately agreed and ordered everyone in the old Gu family not to ntion that Gu Xiaoi was married. As for Ma Qingwen, he said that he was the fiance who was engaged to Gu Xiaoi.
Qian Guangzong was not afraid of Gu Xiaoi and continued: "What I said is the truth. If you are not willing to hear it, then don't get married in the first place."
With this background, how dare the old Gu family not let the Qian family get involved in this business?
Qian Chengcai also said: "Yes, auntie, my father did not lie."
Speaking of it, you are not a **** and insist on kicking our Qian family out of this business. If you happily share this business with the Qian family, can my father expose your shortcomings?
Gu Xiaoi couldn't stop crying and imdiately went to complain to Mrs. Gu.
Mrs. Gu scolded Qian Guangzong: "If you dare to say this again and ruin my little sister's marriage, I won't be able to spare you."
He scolded Gu Xiaoi again: "Stop crying, let your third brother tell you how much money you can make from the Gu family."
Mrs. Gu is also very jealous of the Gu family's business. She wishes that this business belonged to her old Gu family... no, to her children.
Other mbers of Lao Gu's family urged Gu Youlu to quickly talk about the Gu family's business.
Gu Youlu looked proud. He walked into the main room of the courtyard with the steps of an old man. While drinking the small wine Zheng gave him, he talked about Gu's business.
But he only heard a little bit about it today and had no idea how big Gu's business was, but he knew how to brag about it, and he boasted about it so much that he directly made Gu's business the best in Chu.
"The Qi family in Fucheng can earn one hundred thousand taels of silver a year just by selling spices in Jianghuai. The uncle of the Qi family was promoted because of the spices. The food in Futai House is so delicious because of Gu. And Fu Tailou can earn thousands of taels of silver a day by relying on the spices and various vegetable recipes given by Gu."
"Hey, why is Mrs. Gu so rich?" Mrs. Zheng covered her heart and almost fainted with excitent: "If we do this business with Mr. Gu, then our family will earn over one hundred thousand taels a year." silver?"
Qian Chengcai shook his legs and said, "Third Aunt, if we can take over Gu's business, we can earn more than one hundred thousand taels a year, at least one million taels!"
"What? One million taels!" Mrs. Zheng felt her blood rush to her forehead. She counted on her fingers: "How much silver is this?"
He then asked doubtfully: "Can you really earn that much?"
Gu Youlu scolded: "Zheng, don't you believe that the business I found can make a lot of money? After we get this business, we will sell the seasonings and spices to the capital. What kind of place is the capital? There are noble people everywhere. We sell ten taels of gold and a pound of seasonings and spices, and they can buy them. How can we still make less than one million taels of silver a year?" Ms. Zheng was very afraid that Gu Youlu would give up her own. After hearing this, she imdiately flattered him and said, "My husband is very capable. Give it to us." I found such a great job."
He asked again: "We have made so much money, how should we spend it? One million taels a year, how can we spend it all?"
Gu Youlu said: "You don't know how to spend your money? Of course, you can buy a house, land, a shop, and then buy a box of jade and learn how to carve jade seals from rich people."
Zheng said: "Then I want to buy fur clothes and sets of gold-headed noodles."
Gu Xiaoi sneered and said: "Third sister-in-law, our family is so rich and you still die on the face of gold. We should buy that ruby to wear it, so that it is worthy of our status."
After hearing this, Mrs. Gu smiled and said: "My little sister is right. Since we are not short of money, we should buy so gems to wear. The noble ladies in the capital all wear gems and dongzhu, and they wear gold heads and faces. That is Its sothing only poor people wear.
Lao Gu's family is quite shaless. They took Gu's business as their own before they even found the Gu family's residence. They all talked happily about what they would buy after making money.
While they were talking happily, Mr. Gu and Gu Youfu in the back room were woken up and asked loudly: "What are you talking about at this late hour?"
Mrs. Gu said hurriedly: "I didn't say anything. Youlu and the others are back."
He waved his hands at Gu Youlu and the others again: "You go back and have a rest. I'll see your dad again tomorrow."
As he spoke, he entered the back room and smiled at Old Man Gu: "Old man, are you feeling better?"
Mr. Gu gets angry when he talks about it. Ever since he started living with the Li family, he has been sick every New Year.
Last year he felt sothing was wrong and asked the old woman to find soone to figure it out for him. She said that the Li family was too lucky, and he was born as a farr and did not enjoy this blessing, so he got sick every year.
Mrs. Gu said at the ti: "There is no way to resolve it. Master said that if our family wants to enjoy this blessing, we have to have you as the head of the family to block the disaster. The old man has worked hard for you, so you just have to suffer."
People in Dachu believe this, and Mr. Gu gave up his doubts after hearing this. But getting sick every year during the New Year really makes people feel angry.
But after Mrs. Gu sent Gu Youfu away, she told him about Gu's business.
Mr. Gu felt relieved and said with a smile: "Youlu is very capable. He has found such a good business for our family. Rember to tell Youlu so that he doesn't have to co to say hello tomorrow. Go find the Gu family quickly and start the business." .
Mrs. Gu said: "Do you still have to answer for this? We are rich and sensible now, so you can rest assured."
Mr. Gu smiled and nodded: "If our family can get this job, we won't have to live with the Li family in the future."
Although the Li family's life is good, he always feels that the Li family rejects him, and he also wants to lose face. If his family can develop on his own, why should he be angry with the Li family?
