Su Qi's family had dinner in the side hall, and Tian Yougu, Xie Yi and Yue Qinggang also accompanied them.
Tian Yougu heard about the black market and asked a few more questions.
Gu Beiheng did not hide anything and told him about the black market. However, he concealed the source of the iron lumps, saying only that they were given by merchants from offshore.
Tian Yougu was terrified when he heard this.
"General, are these people staying in Jinyang Prefecture?"
Gu Beiheng and Su Qi looked at each other, and he thought for a moment and said:
"Zhi a few of them who are relatively young, and have them follow Dabao and Erbao from now on. The others will stay in Jinyang Prefecture and be under your charge. Remember, next door is the villa of Zhang Shuishan and the old prince Rongshan. Our people must be able to walk on the edge of a knife."
Su Qi put down her chopsticks and said, "We have to redo the defenses at the villa. We can't let anyone else monitor us."
"I understand. General and Madam, please rest assured." Tian Yougu finished his meal in a few bites and put down his chopsticks. "I will lead the troops to deploy defenses and let the black market people in."
"Tian Yougu. Don't call me General anymore. I'm no longer the Great General of the Northwest."
Whenever Tian Yougu gets excited, he always calls out "General". This is a habit for people like them.
He chuckled. "Yes, sir. I wouldn't normally be like this, but I don't know why, but whenever I get excited I can't help but call you General."
He said that and walked out.
After eating, Dabao and Erbao wiped their mouths and ran out to continue learning to read.
Su Qi told Yue Qinggang that they would be returning to Yun County in two days. Would they go back to Jiangnan or stay in Jinyang Prefecture?
Yue Qinggang and Xie Yi thought for a while and decided to open a store somewhere else.
The next day, Su Qi, Gu Beiheng and others went to Yipintang for dinner and met Mr. Zhang there.
Young Master Zhang didn't know what was going on.
All we know is that the third prince of Dongqi Kingdom and the adopted son of Prince Zhan had a disagreement and they started arguing on the spot.
It was very unpleasant.
He didn't expect that Gu Beiheng and Su Qi had such abilities that caused the royal family of Dongqi Kingdom to argue about it.
"Gu Beiheng. I didn't expect you to be so capable." Young Master Zhang knew that this man was no longer someone he could control.
Gu Beiheng looked over calmly. "Mr. Zhang, you're too kind. I'm just trying to survive."
Young Master Zhang clenched his fists, took two steps, and then turned to look at Gu Beiheng. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he found that Gu Beiheng was hostile to his grandfather.
The original purpose of inviting them to the auction was to test their strength and let them know about my connections.
Unexpectedly, the loss outweighed the gain, and Gu Beiheng became much more famous than him.
Gu Beiheng didn't stop and went upstairs with Su Qi and the two children.
Yue Jiushao was ordering dishes in the private room. "We have to order one squirrel fish, Dabao loves it. We also have one crab, Madam Gu loves it. Erbao likes sweet and sour pork..."
Dabao ran in smiling.
He threw himself on Yue Jiushao's lap and smiled. "Uncle Jiu is the best."
Yue Qinggang gave him a disdainful look, "You're just good at flattering others."
"Haha. Qinggang, you can't compare to me. We've lived and died together before."
Yue Qinggang picked up the wine flask and poured a glass of wine, then glanced at Yue Jiushao with disdain. "Just show off. We've known each other longer than you, but you can't compare."
A few people started to exchange a few words and drank a few more glasses of wine.
Gu Beiheng thought about the future.
He cleared his throat and said:
"I have a business deal to cooperate with you. I need to stabilize the grain prices in Dashun. I would like you to buy grain from other countries for me. I will take as much as you can."
This time, he made several million taels of silver in the black market.
If you have money in your pocket, you won't be worried.
Yue Qinggang said without hesitation: "I will go to Da Yue and Bei Liang to collect grain."
Xie Yi thought for a moment and said, "I'm going to Nanli Kingdom and several small countries near the South China Sea to collect food."
Yue Jiushao downed the wine in his glass. "Leave Dongqi and the East Sea tribes to me. I promise that, in addition to Dashun's grain prices, you can also stabilize grain prices on this continent in the future."
As he spoke, Yue Jiushao noticed the expressions of Gu Beiheng and Su Qi.
There was no doubt or hesitation between the two of them.
Yue Jiushao's mouth dropped open. "Beiheng, Qiqi. Don't you two want to...?"
Gu Beiheng scooped some crab-like seafood with a spoon and gave it to Su Qi. He raised his head and smiled slightly. "Nineth Master, we don't have any plans. We just want to develop our own power and survive."
Yue Jiushao curled his lips in disbelief. Isn't life just about keeping quiet and not getting out of the spotlight?
Several people finished their meal.
Su Qi and Gu Beiheng went to Prince Jing's Mansion and Prince Hui's Mansion again, and told them that they had to go back to Yun County.
Prince Jing was a little reluctant, and he wanted to find a way to make Gu Beiheng follow him again.
But after hearing about the black market, he knew there was no hope.
The night before leaving.
Su Qi placed a lot of food in the warehouse of Meilin Villa and also placed a lot of weapons and herbs in the secret room.
Gu Beiheng made some adjustments to the secret room in Meilin Villa and asked Ying Shi and the others to dig a few more secret rooms.
The back room contained weapons and herbs, and the front room also contained a lot of food.
A lot of grain seeds have also been planted, and they can start planting once the people Yue Jiushao finds come.
Su Qi also asked Tian Yougu to buy some fields in the nearby village, and rent them out to others for cultivation or hire people to cultivate them himself.
I finished all these things in detail.
Su Qi and Gu Beiheng took their two children, Ying Shi, Ying Jiu, and Ying Shiyi. Bai Zhi, Xiang He, Zeng Wuming, and Zhi Yishi all left Jinyang Prefecture.
Return to Yunxian.
The three carriages left together.
Helian and Li Hao came to the city gate to see them off and helped them leave Jinyang Prefecture safely.
The two of them made sure that Gu Beiheng took the gifts back.
Seeing their enthusiasm and chivalrous spirit, Gu Beiheng told them that if they had any difficulties, they could go to Meilin Villa to find Tian Yougu.
But I can’t help with Prince Rongshan and the others.
Helian and the other two understood and clasped their fists towards Gu Beiheng and Su Qi.
As they were leaving, a horse quickly caught up with them.
"Mr. Gu, Mrs. Gu. Please stay." The man on horseback shouted breathlessly.
Ying Shi heard the sound and stopped.
Su Qi lifted the curtain and saw a stranger.
The man rode forward and said with a smile, "Madam Gu, I am a servant of Madam Li from the Dongqi Li Mansion. She wants to ask you to return to Jinyang Mansion to treat a lady."
Su Qi frowned and said:
"Why didn't Madam Li tell you earlier?"
"Madam's friends didn't know about Madam Gu's medical skills before, but after hearing that she cured Madam Ru of Prince Jing's Mansion, they agreed." The horse-riding steward said embarrassedly.
Su Qi lowered his eyes, then raised his head again and said:
"Tell Madam Li that I have to go back to Yun County. If there is any need, they will have to go to Yun County again."
The manager said anxiously:
"Madam Gu, please return. The reward can be negotiated. That lady is also a person of extraordinary status."
"The reward doesn't matter. I have something going on at home and can't delay." Su Qi was not a walking doctor, so he naturally wouldn't serve such a timid person.
I was even more nervous when I saw her young face.
The manager wanted to say something, but Ying Shi sneered back.
"Let's go. Our lady has been in Jinyang Prefecture for quite some time. If she wanted to be treated, she would have come to us long ago. Why would someone rush back and ask us to come back?"
"Just because your friend of Madam Li said so, you want our Madam to go there? Why are you so arrogant? If you want to get treatment, go to Yun County."
Ying Shi retorted in a bad mood, and whipped the little red horse over. The little red horse kicked up its hooves and ran happily.
