My Whole Family's Setting Collapsed

After Gu Xin recovered from a serious illness, she discovered that her whole family had changed.

Her father, who was a gambling addict and nearly sold his wife and daughter, said he would nev...

Chapter 1158 The Gu Family of Fuzhou

Kuncheng this year is completely different from Kuncheng last year.

The streets have become cleaner, there are more people on the streets, and the people of Kuncheng are no longer listless, but full of energy.

In spring, Gu Xin planted a lot of flowers. Although the flowering season is over now, the small trees planted at intervals still have some greenery, which is refreshing to look at.

A caravan of merchants came from the official road at the northeast gate. They were tea merchants from Jiangnan. Usually, the manager was here, but this time, the young master of the family came directly.

Gu Chengyun, the successor groomed by the Gu family tea tycoon in Fuzhou, looked surprised as soon as he entered the city gate.

The last time he came to Kuncheng was when he was sixteen years old, five years ago.

He didn't believe the description of the changes in Kuncheng given by the manager here, so he planned to come before the Chinese New Year this year.

"Stop the carriage!" Gu Chengyun called out, bringing the carriage to a halt.

"What's wrong, young master?" The coachman thought something was wrong.

"It's nothing." Gu Chengyun got out of the car, straightened his clothes, and said, "You all go back to the house first, I'll take a stroll around the city."

"Okay." The driver cracked his whip and continued onward.

Gu Chengyun, accompanied by his entourage, looked at a novel building not far away, where people of all ages and genders were going in and out, hurrying in and coming out easily. He was quite curious about it.

After entering, I pulled an old man aside and asked, "Sir, this place is not very big, what is it used for?"

The old man glanced at Gu Chengyun and pointed to a sign hanging on a large tree not far away, which had been blown over by the wind: "Oh dear, the wind was strong and blew it over. This is the outhouse, the public outhouse of Kuncheng. Everyone can use it."

Gu Chengyun: "?"

The old man chuckled and said, "Young master, judging from your accent, you're not a local. You must be from Jiangnan! It's normal that you don't know. You can try it out; it's really useful. This is an outhouse, but it doesn't smell like it should, right? Hahaha, this was built by the magistrate's son! Our Kuncheng has three must-visit places. Are you in a hurry, young master?"

Gu Chengyun was taken aback: "What do you mean?"

The old man pointed to the public latrine, then to Gu Chengyun's belly.

Gu Chengyun realized what was going on: "No rush, no rush. I just came here out of curiosity because I didn't know what the houses here were used for. By the way, old man, what are the three must-visit places in Kuncheng? I came to Kuncheng a few years ago, and I only knew that the trading area was for trading with neighboring countries. Where are these three places now?"

The old man chuckled, looking quite smug: "Young man, there are three must-visit places in Kuncheng, the first being this public outhouse!"

He paused after he finished speaking.

Gu Chengyun was completely bewildered. It was just a toilet; even if it were made public, everyone could use it. Why was there any reason to go there?

The old man enjoyed watching his country bumpkin appearance and chuckled, "There's something special about this place, young man! Just remember this! You must go and see it later. The second thing is the trading area you mentioned earlier, but it's not called the trading area anymore, it's called the food street. The food on this food street covers delicacies from all over the country, even some that you can't find anywhere else in the Great Zhou. People from neighboring countries are even willing to pay ten coins to enter the city because of this food street. Not only do people from neighboring countries love to eat here, but we people of the Great Zhou love to eat here too."
