Chapter 107 This secret shocked Chu Ruohan

Gu Junze looked calm, his eyes revealing an unquestionable confidence.

Master Gu San subconsciously added, "You've been married for some time, so why don't you have a child?"

As soon as he said it, he regretted it and felt secretly annoyed in his heart. What happened to him today? Why did he say such a thoughtless thing?

This kind of thing is someone else's privacy, and it is really inappropriate to ask about it at this time.

On the contrary, Gu Junze had a calm expression on his face and acted calmly, which made him look at him with a higher regard. This child has always been smarter than the average person since he was young. It's just a pity...

Gu Junze smiled helplessly, "The time has not come yet."

Master Gu San nodded, understanding that all men should have dignity. It would be embarrassing if such a thing was publicized.

He quickly said, "I'll send someone to suppress the rumors."

Gu Junze waved his hand and said, "Third Uncle, that's not necessary."

Rumors stop at the wise. Sending people to suppress them will only make people think that he is incompetent.

Isn't this just a case of trying to cover up one's own guilt?

Once Han'er became pregnant, the rumors were naturally proven false.

Thinking of this, Gu Junze picked up the teacup and took a sip.

It's time for them to have sex.

Thinking of this, Gu Junze couldn't suppress a smile on his face.

Yingqing pushed the wheelchair, and Gu Junze personally sent the third master of the Gu family out. Along the way, the two exchanged a few words.

After returning to Hongmeng Courtyard, Gu Junze asked, "Where is the young lady?"

"The young lady took Song Ruyan and Miss Yuling out early in the morning."

Gu Junze couldn't help but frowned slightly, "Going out?"

If Song Ruyan were here, she would be so angry that she would jump up when she heard Ying Qing call her that. Yuling can be called "Miss Yuling", and she is the name.

Ying Qing really felt that Song Ruyan was just a wild girl. She was not as dignified as Yuling who was beside the young lady, nor as lively and lovely as the second daughter of the Chu family.

He hadn't seen her for a few days, and didn't know what Yue Chu and Yue Shu were doing.

Gu Junze asked, "Where did you go? Did you tell me?"

It wasn't until he asked the second time that Ying Qing came back to his senses, "Young Madam didn't explain..."

After leaving the Marquis' Mansion, Chu Ruohan went straight to Cuiyun Pavilion. This was her dowry, which was now being taken care of by Qin Fang, the son of her wet nurse.

"Master, there is indeed an iron ore under that barren mountain."

After Chu Ruohan got this barren mountain, she asked Qin Fang to secretly send people to explore it.

Unexpectedly, we made a major discovery.

"There are about 5.7 million dan (stones) under this mountain." Qin Fang continued to report, with a hint of excitement on his face.

Allen Chu couldn't help but raise an eyebrow, feeling a little surprised, and asked, "Are you sure?"

After all, this is not a small number. Such a huge iron ore reserve, if true, will have a significant impact on many things.

"It will be more, not less." Qin Fang nodded heavily, his eyes firm.

Hearing this answer, Chu Ruohan's thoughts drifted.

In the previous life, the imperial court dug out more than one million tons of iron ore on this mountain, which is far less than the quantity Qin Fang said now.

She clearly remembered that the discovery of the iron ore caused quite a stir.

The iron ore belonged to the imperial court, and unauthorized mining was a serious crime punishable by the death of nine generations of the family, so no one dared to commit such a crime easily.

In the previous life, Marquis Anyang reported the news of the discovery of iron ore, and for a time he became famous and the focus of everyone's attention.

The emperor ordered him to mine together with the Ministry of Works, and it seemed that he was secretly colluding with the Ministry of Works.

On the surface, they were mining according to regulations, but in reality, they were "openly repairing the plank road while secretly passing through Chencang", and secretly embezzled most of the iron ore.

What do they need so much iron ore for?

Iron is an extremely important resource, otherwise the imperial court would not have held it so tightly in its hands and strictly prohibited private mining by the public.

She thought about it, and suddenly an idea flashed through her mind - the battlefield.

Thinking of this, Chu Ruohan was suddenly horrified. Marquis Anyang shouldn't be so bold, right? Could he be trying to seize the throne?

No matter what Marquis Anyang wanted in her previous life, fortunately, the mine fell into her hands in this life.

"Do you want to report it to the court?" Qin Fang couldn't help but ask when he saw that she was silent for a long time.

Chu Ruohan pondered for a moment and said slowly, "No rush, let's get them out first and talk later."

This mine is now like a life-saving talisman and a great achievement.

You can't report it rashly. You have to wait for the right time and use it where it's most needed...

When Chu Ruohan came out of Cuiyun Pavilion, a reckless little beggar suddenly rushed over and bumped into her.

Chu Ruohan's body swayed slightly and she almost fell down, while the little beggar was knocked to the ground by the impact and sat on the ground in embarrassment.

Chu Ruohan quickly squatted down and helped the little beggar up, with a concerned look on her face, "Are you okay?"

However, the little beggar did not answer her. A trace of panic flashed in his eyes, and he turned around and wanted to run away.

But his movements were not as fast as Song Ruyan's. Song Ruyan was quick-witted and quick-handed, and she grabbed the back of his collar.

Song Ruyan's face was filled with anger. "Hand over the things. You are so young but you don't learn anything good. You just do these sneaky things."

Seeing that he couldn't struggle free, the little beggar's legs went limp and he fell to his knees with a thump.

He raised his head, his red and swollen eyes filled with tears, "Madam, please be kind, my father is sick and has no money to buy medicine. He is dying, wuwu..."

Chu Ruohan looked at the pitiful look of the little boy with tears in his eyes, and couldn't help feeling a little sorry.

But Song Ruyan didn't think so. She curled her lips and said, "Don't listen to him. These little repeat offenders always use the same excuse."

Song Ruyan has been in the underworld since she was a child and has seen all kinds of people. She is already used to this kind of trick.

As she spoke, Song Ruyan snatched the purse from the little beggar and threw it into Chu Ruohan's arms.

A purse is a woman's personal belonging.

When the little beggar saw his purse was taken away, he cried even harder. He cried and said, "I really didn't lie. Daddy is really sick."

His tears kept flowing, wetting his little face covered with dirt, and the tear marks on the dirty face looked particularly glaring.

Chu Ruohan looked at the pitiful appearance of the little boy, opened her purse, took out a silver ingot and handed it to the little beggar.

"Here are twenty taels. Go and see your father first. If you have any difficulties, you can come to Anyang Marquis's Mansion to find me."

The little beggar raised his head, a hint of gratitude flashing in his eyes.

He hesitated for a moment, but still reached out to take the silver, then kowtowed heavily to Chu Ruohan and said, "Thank you, I will repay you."

After saying that, he turned and ran, quickly disappearing in the crowd.

Song Ruyan rolled her eyes as she watched the little beggar leave.

"Even if we give him this money, he won't be able to keep it. It might be snatched away by other thugs before long."

Seeing the little beggar disappear around the corner, Chu Ruohan frowned and said, "Let's follow him and see."
