Chapter 568 570. Mentioning Guo Yurong Again
Ouyang Bing was anxious, "We are just chatting happily, and you haven't agreed to my request yet?"
Jin Qianqian chuckled, "It seems that Master Ouyang has been living a very comfortable life these days and has forgotten some of the taboos in life.
Although we are acquaintances, we are at most friends who are familiar with each other in business.
Why do you think I have to agree to your requests?"
Ouyang Bing remained silent. Mu Tou who was standing behind him rolled his eyes helplessly. This young man was really living in a daze. He completely forgot that when asking for help from others, one should behave in the right way.
As a qualified guard, he could only secretly tap him on the back and fulfill his duty.
"...I know you don't need anything right now, Madam Gu. Do you think this is okay? I'll give you a share of the goods I exchange for later."
Jin Qianqian, "Then I really want to thank you. I can do this by myself, but I'm still going through so much trouble with you and still have to thank you for it.
Mr. Ouyang, I really wonder how you managed to run Tianfu Restaurant?"
Ouyang Bing's face turned red. She knew that what she had just said was a bit unkind, but she also showed her full sincerity.
Feeling the constant reminders from the wood on his back, he suddenly got excited and turned around to pull the wood forward, "...Look at this wood, he is tall and strong, and has great martial arts skills. It would be a good thing for you to have him on the ship."
Jin Qianqian looked at Mu Tou with sympathy, "It's not a loss for me to follow him on the ship, but it's different for you..."
Ouyang Bing just felt that he had been doing stupid things since the beginning of the day.
He calmed down and said, "Madam, how can you let me go to sea with Mu Mu?"
Jin Qianqian looked at him with disdain, "You know I'm a businessman, and I never do business at a loss. I don't think your proposal is worth it, even if it means losing a share.
Besides, I have enough boatmen under my command now, and I don’t have any plans to hire more people for the time being. Mr. Ouyang, please come in!"
Lichun was about to send him out, but Ouyang Bing hurriedly asked, "Madam, do you still remember Guo Yurong?"
Jin Qianqian: "......" Is this to attract people to make up the numbers...
Ouyang Bing said quickly, "I have already written to Guo Yurong. I think he is also interested in going to sea. With such a skilled doctor accompanying him, will Madam refuse?"
Jin Qianqian, "Oh, stop making big promises for me. As a doctor in the hospital, I won't let you do me a favor like this.
Don't say that I am unkind. As long as you can invite Doctor Guo to come with you, I will allow the two of you to board the ship."
Jin Qianqian didn't say anything definite at this moment. He understood that having a good doctor on board would provide an extra layer of protection for the crew.
She could hire a doctor to go with her at a high price, but after all, a truly capable doctor would not take the risk.
The last time Vice Admiral Zhou and his men sailed out to sea, it was because they had a military doctor.
She is still in contact with the doctors she is looking for. Although she has offered high remuneration, those doctors are still hesitant.
Ouyang Bing was full of confidence at this moment. Having grown up together, how could he not know what Guo Yurong was thinking? Maybe she had already set off the moment she received the letter.
"It's a deal then." Ouyang Bing felt that the purpose of this trip had been accomplished and stood up to say goodbye.
When he was about to leave, Jin Qianqian said coldly, "But there is a prerequisite for this. You have to deal with your troubles and be able to walk on the street openly.
Otherwise, even if you find ten doctors from the infirmary, I will not agree."
Ouyang Bing: "..." This doesn't sound right. Why can't we just walk out onto the street openly?
Although he was hiding, he was not so shameful as to be seen by others.
At this moment, Jin Qianqian was serving tea to see the guest off, so he couldn't argue any further. He could only bow and walk out.
At night, when Gu Wenheng came back from the yamen, Jin Qianqian mentioned Ouyang Bing to him.
"You mentioned Ouyang Bing. He seemed to be a handsome and elegant gentleman, but I didn't expect him to be in such a bad shape.
If you really don't want to waste the daughter of the Zhong family's time, you should have explained it to her right away.
Now people come to him and ask for an explanation, but he is trying to evade them. Do you think there is something wrong with his thinking?"
Gu Wenheng, "These are none of our business, who knows what the contradictions are.
If it is not in the middle, we should not jump to conclusions easily. "
Jin Qianqian, "I'm just complaining a little bit. After all, the girl's youth has been wasted like this. Even if there is a real conflict, just sit down and talk it out.
Is it his bad taste to make you chase me like this?"
Gu Wenheng stopped writing and looked at her, "You haven't complained for a long time, why did you bring it up today?"
Jin Qianqian then told Ouyang Bing why he came today, "Do you think he will really invite Guo Yurong over?"
Gu Wenheng, “It’s hard to say.
He has always been Guo Yurong's external contact person. He was able to run the restaurant so well before, probably because of this convenience."
Jin Qianqian agreed to some extent. After all, no one wanted to offend a great doctor.
“I hope he can really invite someone over.
Do you think I should postpone my departure time?"
After all, with the help of skilled doctors, people going out to sea can get some protection.
Gu Wenheng, "We should still go on the scheduled date. Many people are watching us now. If there is any change, they will have several versions in their minds."
Jin Qianqian, "...then I hope Ouyang Bing can be faster.
The people that Butler Fu brought back before have now started working on the ship.
But regarding what he said about the situation in Haicheng, do you think we should write a letter home?"
Gu Wenheng didn't expect that after leaving Haicheng for such a long time, Song Xiuniang's family would still make such trouble.
Since they were able to find Butler Fu causing trouble, we knew they had been keeping an eye on the yard over there.
"I'll write a letter and talk about it later. After all, they are my eldest brother's relatives. Let him handle it himself. We shouldn't interfere anymore."
Jin Qianqian, "It's such a long journey, big brother probably won't want to take care of it."
"It's not a matter of whether he wants to take care of it or not. He is a real relative of his. It would be unreasonable for him to bring the trouble to our house.
If my elder brother really doesn't want to take care of it, I will write a letter and ask the prefect of Haicheng to handle everything impartially.
By then, what will happen to the Song family will be beyond our prediction."
Gu Wenheng felt that this was not a big deal. He thought that as a qualified elder brother, Gu Yuanjin should know how to deal with it reasonably soon.
As for the Song family, if they behave themselves, they can live in peace and stability thanks to their kinship.
