"Aqing, you are very good!"

Gu Heng looked at the string of small islands and thought that they could use them as a "retreat" for the Gu family.

As an old and experienced man, he understood his granddaughter very well: Aqing mentioned "silver mines" and she probably wanted to turn these places into the Gu family's territory.

Aqing understands the principle of a cunning rabbit having three burrows better than anyone else!

"So, there's really no comparison between people!"

Looking at his granddaughter who was becoming more and more beautiful and intelligent, Gu Heng once again thought of Gu Youyi on the other side.

Alas, they are all "ambitious" daughters of the Gu family, but the gap between them is really not a little bit.

Gu Qing wants to be ahead of everything and plans everything step by step on his own.

As for Gu Youyi, it seems that she has had some adventures as well and can always predict some things.

But she is still used to relying on others——

Externally, we rely on Yuwen Heng;

Internally, he always tried to ask Gu for help!

Yes, Gu Qing did receive some help from the Gu family.

But, Gu Qing was the first to give the Gu family "hope".

Rock salt purification, horseshoes, sugar, sea salt, etc., any one of them is enough to make a family rich and prosperous.

As for Gu Qing, he handed it over to his family without reservation.

She has the entire Gu family in her heart.

In contrast, Gu Youyi seemed to be more influenced by her biological mother, Xie.

She only cared about her own small family and did not consider the overall situation of the family.

If it is a peaceful and prosperous time, it is okay to take care of both the big family and the small family.

But it’s different now. Dynasties are changing, the North and the South are in conflict, wars are constant, and many heroes are emerging.

In such a chaotic world, if you cannot be close to and unite with your clansmen, let alone strive for supremacy, it will be difficult to even protect yourself!

It is Gu Qing's behavior that makes Gu Heng and other Gu family members more satisfied, and they are willing to give their whole family's support!

Because if that were the case, the Gu family would not be making wedding dresses for others.

Gu Youyi, haha, since she has decided on Yuwen, then she should just be content to be Yuwen's bride in the future.

"Do we need more manpower?"

Gu Heng collected his thoughts and turned his attention back to his conversation with Gu Qingcheng.

He knew that his granddaughter had the best potential for success.

Since she had set her sights on the string of islands, she already had a series of plans.

Ah Qing came to discuss with him, not just to discuss, but also to get support——

Hey, that's good!

If Aqing didn't ask her own family for help when she had problems, but instead looked for someone from another family for help like Gu Youyi, Gu Heng would be disappointed and sad.

Because if she did that, it would mean that she didn't consider herself a member of the Gu family.

Besides, going to Fusang to mine is a great thing!

Aqing is not looking for help, but to share the profits.

"Yes! Going overseas to mine is a serious matter, and we need reliable people to take charge!"

If possible, Gu Qing would like to go by himself.

However, Lingnan is also unable to move freely.

Alas, one only regrets not having enough things when one needs them.

Time is still too urgent. If she waits another three to five years, the first batch of orphans she has trained will be available for use.

But Gu Qingcheng couldn't wait any longer!

These plans must be implemented as soon as possible.

The Gu family is her foundation, and Gu Qingcheng would not really feel uneasy about using people from the Gu family.

"Or, call my uncle back!"

Gu Qingcheng looked at Gu Heng and asked tentatively.

The uncle that Gu Qingcheng mentioned is Gu Hong, Gu Heng’s nephew and adopted son.

Gu Hong was the posthumous son of Gu Heng's half-brother. He lost his biological father when he was born and his biological mother remarried.

As the head of the Gu family, Gu Heng ordered someone to bring Gu Hong to be raised by his wife.

Except that the family tree was not changed, Gu Hong was treated almost the same as Gu Heng's own son.

A few years ago, the Gu family fled north, and the Gu Yi brothers also took their younger brother Gu Hong with them.

In the eyes of Gu Heng's branch, Gu Hong is their closest relative.

But in the eyes of other branches of the Gu family and outsiders, Gu Hong is just an outsider living under someone else's roof.

In fact, not to mention others, even some younger generations of Gu Heng's branch (such as Gu Youyi) did not regard Gu Hong as their own.

Gu Youyi values ​​her own small family very much, but in order to gain the support of the Gu family, she will also share some of the benefits with the eldest house where Gu Yi is.

Since Gu Ji is Gu Youyi's biological father, he can naturally get more "advice" from Gu Youyi.

Only Gu Hong, Gu Youyi seemed to have forgotten this uncle.

Gu Youyi: ...We are not family members, and in the previous life, Gu Hong was a playboy, going to him would only make things worse!

But Gu Qingcheng wouldn't think so.

In her eyes, Gu Hong, who was raised by Gu Heng, is one of her own.

As for the fact that Gu Hong was not as good as Gu Yi and Gu Ji, and was more like a dandy who only knew how to eat, drink, have fun, and show off his bravery and fighting, Gu Qingcheng didn't care at all.

There is no absolute waste in this world. Even the best villain can play a huge role if used in the right place.

Gu Hong is eighteen years old this year and a bit rebellious at heart, so it’s a good opportunity for him to go abroad and fight for his fortune!

“…”

Gu Heng looked at Gu Qingcheng steadily, and seeing that her eyes were bright and not pretending at all, he knew that she was speaking from the heart.

OK!

This is the mind and bearing that the helmsman of the Gu family should have.

So what if they are not biological children?

As long as they have the surname Gu, they are a family.

As the eldest son of the direct branch, being able to support and make use of the side branches shows that he has the potential to become the patriarch.

As expected of his beloved granddaughter, she has a big vision.

"Okay! Then call Hong'er over!"

Gu Heng nodded slowly and agreed to Gu Qingcheng's proposal.

Of course, if you want to go overseas, you definitely can’t have just one Gu Hong.
