Chapter 151 152. Arrangement
Jin Qianqian put away the red contract in her hand, looked at Lin Aijiao who was walking away, and inexplicably felt a sense of fighting spirit.
"This Boss Lin is not a simple person," Gu Wenheng said thoughtfully.
Jin Qianqian, "She's a good person, but it's a pity that she didn't meet a good in-law family. I just don't understand why she compromised like this given her personality."
Gu Wenheng touched her head and said, "Sometimes taking a step back is a better way to attack. It's good for her to be like this. Too much rigidity will lead to failure."
Jin Qianqian pursed her lips and said, "I hope everything is fine for her.
Actually, she is a very nice person. She could have raised the price a little, but I didn't expect her to lower the price for us. I don't know if she can explain it to those vampires when she returns."
Gu Wenheng, "Why do you think she was willing to sell the store to you?"
Jin Qianqian thought about it and suddenly realized something. Now the whole county knows that she is the wife of a scholar, and Gu Wenheng is about to be a future quasi-juren. The couple also have contacts with the county's constables. If Lin Aijiao's in-laws want to make trouble later, they will probably have to think twice.
"Sure enough, I thought things were too simple," Jin Qianqian decided to learn from the lesson and think carefully before speaking in the future. Otherwise, it would be too unfair if she fell into the trap of some old fox.
Gu Wenheng explained to her in detail the purpose of the other party's actions. "Although the store was transferred to us, it is not up to others to decide how to divide the money in her hands. Those people want to take advantage of her, and we don't know who will suffer the most in the end."
Jin Qianqian didn't expect the reversal to come so quickly. Before, Lin Aijiao was still complaining vaguely, but she didn't expect that others were playing a game of chess, and she became one of the chess pieces.
"Don't think about it," Gu Wenheng took advantage of the cover of his robe and led her home. "You should pay attention to some news these days. I guess there will be another big news soon."
Jin Qianqian: "..." I regarded you as my idol, but you became a bystander???

"It's snowing heavily, why are you coming to my place instead of staying at home?" Gu Wenheng glanced at Deng Yuanhang who was sitting opposite him without stopping making tea.
"You are really a hidden talent. You only bring out such good tea now," Deng Yuanhang sniffed the tea fragrance in the air, but his eyes were fixed on the teapot.
"I didn't get much of this tea, you should be glad that I was willing to share it with you." Gu Wenheng's smooth tea-making process stunned Deng Yuanhang.
"This tea-making skill is really good. It's pleasing to the eye. You should learn it."
"If you have a master from the south, you can also learn this set of skills." Gu Wenheng placed a cup of tea in front of him and said, "Try it."
Deng Yuanhang opened the scent cup and put it under his nose to enjoy the unique fragrance of tea. "You think this is difficult for me? Although I don't have a master in the south, I have traveled all over the country with my father since I was a child, so I do have some experience."
Gu Wenheng rolled his eyes at him. He didn't have such thoughts. "You haven't told me the purpose of your visit today."
"What's the hurry?" Deng Yuanhang picked up the teacup and took two sips. "Pack some tea leaves for me later. I came here for good things. You have to bribe me first."
Gu Wenheng, "Going to gamble on stones again?"
Deng Yuanhang shook his head. "How can gambling on stones be done often? The caravans only come and go once in such a long time. If you want to go, I will notify you when the goods arrive next time.
But I think you will be interested this time."
“……” Gu Wenheng looked at him quietly.
Deng Yuanhang couldn't stand it anymore, "Okay, okay, I'll tell you straight away, this time our escort agency has organized a caravan to go to the south, and the weather there isn't as cold as here, I want to take this opportunity to go out and study.
And there is another important thing, that is, Mr. Wang will also go with you."
Gu Wenheng, "Mr. Wang? Why didn't I hear about him when I went to the academy yesterday?"
"This was just decided yesterday. The gentleman asked me to ask you and Zhou Ping if you are interested in following him all the way south and coming back in the spring. When I got the news, the first place I went to was you."
Gu Wenheng hesitated, "Can I bring my family with me?"
Deng Yuanhang touched his nose, knowing that Wen Heng had a good relationship with his wife. "I haven't asked about this. I'll ask the caravan later. If anyone brings female relatives, we can arrange for them as well."
Gu Wenheng refilled his cup with tea and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Senior Brother Deng.
It's just that this caravan is transporting goods from north to south, or is it just a one-way trip."
"This?" Deng Yuanhang was stumped again. "I will definitely find out when I get back. But why are you asking this?"
"The round trip is so long, we can't go there empty-handed, right?" Gu Wenheng leaned forward slightly, "If this trip goes through, I should at least make some contribution to this family."
"..." Deng Yuanhang licked his lips, "Wenheng, if you take the path of the imperial examination, it might bury you."
Gu Wenheng just smiled, picked up the cup in his hand, and continued to enjoy his tea.
Deng Yuanhang ground the two taels of tea leaves he wanted, then hummed a tune and prepared to go find Zhou Ping.
As soon as Gu Wenheng told Jin Qianqian the purpose of Deng Yuanhang's visit, she stopped what she was doing.
In the past two days, she has made some ordinary soap according to the methods provided in the book.
Now she is demoulding the soaps and wrapping each piece in wax paper.
"If you can bring goods, what do you plan to bring?"
Gu Wenheng pointed to the soaps in front of him and said, "I think they are pretty good, and we don't need to bring too much. As long as we put them out there, people with foresight will come to us to cooperate."
Jin Qianqian, "But there are only so many samples now, and I don't know when they will set off."
"This will probably take some time. In addition to confirming the number of people, we also need to give everyone time to pack their things." Gu Wenheng knew that this trip was a rare opportunity, so he naturally didn't want to give up easily.
"I'll also ask Senior Brother Deng to help find out. If you can bring your family, you can travel with me then."
Jin Qianqian's face flashed with surprise, but she quickly came back to her senses, "That doesn't matter. If I really can't bring my family with me, then I'll move to the store over there and let Sister Xiang keep me company."
Gu Wenheng touched her head and said, "There should be news soon, but for this trip, the business in the store will have to be temporarily suspended."
Jin Qianqian felt a little reluctant to hear this. After all, it would be a pity to give up the few taels of silver she earned every day.
"What do you think of Xiaodongzi?" Jin Qianqian looked up at Gu Wenheng.
Gu Wenheng, "You want to..."
Jin Qianqian nodded, "Compared to Sister Xiang and the others, I am more willing to trust Xiao Dongzi."
