Chapter 039 The Thirty-Ninth Melon
"Thank you so much this time!"
After the police car came and took Lawyer Lin and Candy away, Wu Zhou held Gu Xicao's hand, his voice trembling.
Gu Xicao smiled slightly, "You're welcome, Lawyer Wu. We are just helping each other. You have helped my friend with the lawsuit, how can I watch your family of three being torn apart?"
"Thank you beautiful sister!"
Xiaodie rushed over and hugged Gu Xicao's legs, "Sister, you are so great. When I grow up, I want to be a fortune teller like you."
Gu Xicao: “…”
She squatted down and looked at Xiaodie: "Xiaodie, you should be a lawyer like your father, or a dentist like your mother. It's not easy to be a fortune teller."
Shu Ya was stunned for a moment and wanted to ask Gu Xicao how he knew she was a dentist, but then she thought, since he could even figure out that Lawyer Lin and Candy were in collusion, there was no reason why he couldn't figure out such a small matter.
After patting Xiaodie's head, Gu Xicao said goodbye.
Gu Yue'e drove her back to Temple Street. When they arrived and were about to get off the car, Gu Yue'e took out a document from her bag and handed it to Gu Xicao: "Master Gu, please take a look."
Gu Xicao took the document. The first page of the document said that the shop was transferred. A question mark popped up in her mind. She looked up at Gu Yue'e in confusion: "Miss Gu, what does this mean?"
"Nothing. I just happened to hear that you were looking for a shop, and my family happens to have several shops on Temple Street. I'll just give this shop to you, as a token of my gratitude to you."
Gu Yue'e said sincerely.
Give it to her?
To be honest, Gu Xicao was a little moved.
There is a large flow of people on Temple Street, and every inch of land is worth a lot of money. No matter how small a shop is, it will cost at least millions.
Miss Gu Er is really generous.
"Sorry, I can't accept it." Gu Xicao shook his head and pushed the document back.
Gu Yue'e was stunned for a moment. Gu Xicao's fees were not high. She had also inquired about it. He had only been fortune-telling for a month, so the money he earned was definitely not much.
For Gu Xicao, this shop can be said to be a windfall.
She was silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled and said, "Can I ask why?"
"If you ask me why," Gu Xicao scratched his ear, "maybe I'm not thick-skinned enough. Mr. Gu has already given me money once. If I take it again, what will I be? Besides, Miss Gu, you helped me introduce Lawyer Wu, which is already a favor. Why do you need to give me such a big gift?"
I see.
Gu Yue'e suddenly felt ashamed of herself.
"I am sorry for being so presumptuous. However, if you don't want to buy it, I can always rent it to you. After all, it doesn't matter who I rent it to. If I rent it to you, at least I don't have to worry about not being able to collect the rent."
She winked at Gu Xicao.
Gu Xicao couldn't help laughing, "Of course you can."
They were both very straightforward and there was no pushing or shoving.
Wang Laoshi watched her get out of the luxury car eagerly, his mouth watering, "Xiao Gu, how is it?"
Gu Xicao sat back on the small stool, without any airs of superiority: "We have found a lawyer, and he promised me that he would do his best to help Teacher He with the lawsuit this time."
"That's good. Teacher He can finally rest assured." Wang Laoshi felt relieved for He Yiquan.
Gu Xicao hummed, and suddenly remembered something: "Oh, Uncle Wang, I asked you to help me find a shop before, but now you don't need me to. I found a shop."
"Really? Where?"
Wang Laoshi asked curiously.
Gu Xicao said, "It's just west of Temple Street. We'll go over there tomorrow to check out the situation."
"good."
Wang Laoshi agreed.
He thought to himself that there were many big shops on the west side, and these shops were always in short supply. Not to mention wanting to rent them out, people would not rent them out at all.
Xiao Gu is really capable, he actually managed to rent it.
Wang Laoshi looked at the 18-year-old girl who was making a name for herself in Temple Street at such a young age, and then looked at himself, who was still sitting at a stall at the intersection at his old age.
I couldn't help feeling sad for a moment.
The shop was unexpectedly large. I opened the iron door and turned on the lights.
This store is about three or four hundred feet in size, which makes Wang Laoshi speechless. It is estimated that this place was originally a gold shop. Now the gold and other things have been taken away, but the air conditioners, fans and televisions are left.
The room was empty, but there was a small office in the corner. When I went in, I saw a table and chairs.
Wang Laoshi looked around and came out, saying in amazement, "We can all clean it up. Open the door."
Gu Xicao stood at the door and said, "It's not that simple. We have to set it up and hire a receptionist..."
She glanced quickly at the passers-by, and suddenly her gaze paused, as if she saw someone familiar.
The other person was also very sensitive. He followed her line of sight and actually walked over: "Ms. Gu, what a coincidence?"
Gu Xicao looked at the mung bean cake in Lin Qian's hand and felt disillusioned: "Mr. Lin, what are you doing now...?"
"Oh," following his gaze, Lin Qianshi realized what Gu Xicao was surprised about and said with a smile, "This is the mung bean cake that my grandfather loves to eat. It's nearby. I happened to stop by to buy some today when I came here."
He is truly a filial grandson.
Gu Xicao smiled inwardly: "Which one is it from? Is it expensive?"
"Not expensive, three yuan a box." Lin Qianshi looked at Wang Laoshi, then at Gu Xicao: "But Miss Gu, you are now..."
"We are here to look at the shop, planning to open business here in the future."
Gu Xicao pointed to the shop at the back and said, "If you need anything in the future, you can come and help us."
"A fortune teller?" Lin Qianshi said hesitantly.
Gu Xicao smiled and said, "What else? Are we selling mung bean cakes?"
Lin Qianshi touched his nose, hesitating to speak, "Actually, Miss Gu should be studying at this age. If tuition is tight, our Lin family has a charity fund that can help."
Gu Xicao couldn't help but feel helpless and amused.
Wang Laoshi joked, "Yes, Xiao Gu, I think you should not only focus on urging Xiao Yuan to study, but also set a good example yourself."
Gu Xicao gave Wang Laoshi a fake smile.
"Uncle Wang, how about I send you to the senior citizen university first?"
Wang Laoshi immediately became obedient.
Just kidding, he gets a headache whenever he reads.
After Gu Xicao threatened Wang Laoshi, he turned around and said to Lin Qianshi: "Mr. Lin, thank you for your kindness, but I can't use it here, you can give it to someone who needs it more."
"Or just cash it out." Wang Laoshi blinked and rubbed his index fingers suggestively.
Gu Xicao gave him a glare, and Wang Laoshi tactfully closed his mouth and walked aside.
"I'm sorry, Uncle Wang is a jokester, don't take it seriously." Gu Xicao said to Lin Qianshi, "It's getting late, we should go, Mr. Lin, I won't see you off."
"Yeah." Lin Qianshi nodded and watched Gu Xicao and Wang Laoshi walk away.
The corners of his lips curved up.
This little girl is really special.
"Xiao Gu, who was that person just now?"
On the way back, Wang Laoshi did not forget to inquire about Lin Qianshi's identity.
Gu Xicao asked: "Why are you asking this?"
"Just asking, that young man is obviously born into a wealthy family. Hey, did you see his watch? It's a Vacheron Constantin!"
Wang Laoshi was envious, "A watch costs several million, this person is not an ordinary rich man."
Yeah?
Gu Xicao tried to recall what watch Lin Qianshi was wearing, but she hadn't noticed it at all, let alone recognize whether it was a Vacheron Constantin or not.
"Uncle Wang, you still have this ability, you can recognize this?"
"That's nothing. For our business, the most important thing is a pair of eyes. You have to be able to tell what price range the customer is wearing, what industry they are in, and what their mood is, happy or sad?"
Wang Laoshi chattered incessantly, talking as he walked, with saliva flying everywhere.
Gu Xicao didn't realize anything was wrong at first, but as he listened, he figured out the problem.
She stopped and looked at Wang Laoshi in confusion: "Uncle Wang, you talk a lot today."
"Is that so?" Wang Laoshi touched his nose awkwardly.
Gu Xicao confirmed it again and nodded, "Do you have something you want to ask me for?"
"No way, you..." Wang Laoshi was just about to say that Gu Xicao had just misunderstood him, when he saw Gu Xicao narrowing his eyes, smiling but not smiling, his eyes were as bright as fire.
He opened his mouth and sighed, "Okay, I'll tell you the truth, I want to take you as my master and help you. If you don't want to accept me, forget it."
To be honest, it was a bit embarrassing for Wang Laoshi, a man of such advanced age, almost fifty, to take a young girl as his teacher, but she was indeed talented and it was worth learning from her.
Gu Xicao was stunned for a moment, and looked Wang Laoshi up and down: "That's it?"
"Yes, that's what I think. Just tell me if you want to or not." Anyway, the words were out, and Wang Laoshi lay down this time, thinking it over.
"Okay."
Gu Xicao nodded without thinking.
Wang Laoshi didn't understand at first. When he saw Gu Xicao's confused look, he finally realized what was going on and stammered, "You, you agreed?"
"Why shouldn't I agree?" Gu Xicao was not stupid. Although Wang Laoshi was a little experienced sometimes, he was a nice person. What's more, the most important thing was that at least he was an expert and could handle entertaining guests.
If she were to look for someone to be a receptionist now, on the one hand, people in the industry wouldn't dare to hire her because they are most likely scammers; on the other hand, it would take at least three or four months for a layman to get the hang of it.
Gu Xicao doesn't have so much free time to train a new employee.
It is better to use cooked food than raw food.
Wang Laoshi arrived at the right time!
"But, Uncle Wang, I can tell you directly that you can't learn my fortune-telling method." Gu Xicao said directly to Wang Laoshi: "You can't learn this. If you want to learn fortune-telling from me, you will be disappointed."
"You don't have to tell me. I've already seen it."
Wang Laoshi looked around and said to Gu Xicao mysteriously, "Xiao Gu, tell me honestly, is this skill of yours called telepathy?"
ah?
What's going on?
Gu Xicao looked at Wang Laoshi speechlessly, then walked away.
Wang Laoshi laughed, he knew that Xiao Gu must be a man with great abilities, how could he hide this from him!
