"Miss Jiang is lively and likable." Ye Qianning said with a smile in his eyes.
"It's rare that you can praise me." Gu Shuo himself didn't even catch the girl's eye back then.
"Who said that? I was just talking to Young Master Jiang about Dad. Didn't you see that their worship for Dad is like a surging river?"
"I saw it, and I even got called dad for nothing." Gu Shuo chuckled.
Ye Qianning thought of Jiang Yue's expression at that time and chuckled.
Gu Shuo placed the rice paper in his hand on the table: "Just now, the steward of the old prince Feng came. Nanyuan is willing to pay for the purchase of the port. The contract has been signed. Here are all the gold deposit notes."
Ye Qianning looked at the stack of gold banknotes and said, "Old Prince Feng is really rich."
"The Fengwang Mansion has been in charge of business for many years, and its wealth is comparable to the national treasury. Feng Zhen, the eldest son of Fengwang, is brave and good at fighting. Emperor Nanyuan values him very much and has turned a blind eye to the old Fengwang's wealth accumulation." Since Nanyuan became rich, many people in the court have changed.
The capable ones will be given the position, and it all depends on their ability. Nowadays, those who can sit in the court of Nanyuan are not ordinary people.
"No wonder Old Prince Feng dares to be so arbitrary. I wonder if he dares to make the decision about Xianhai Tower." Ye Qianning didn't want to wait too long: "Dad, have someone pass the message to Nanyuan, Dongyi, and Beili. If there is no response within seven days regarding the sale of Xianhai Tower, it will no longer be sold."
Gu Shuo nodded: "We do need to put some pressure on you."
"I still have the IOU with Li Mu's stamp, and the IOU with Sang Zhi's stamp as a birthday present to Master. I have asked someone to cash it in at Beili Bank." Ye Qianning took out the IOU from the space and handed it to Gu Shuo.
She was afraid that Beili would decline and all the money would be wasted.
"Okay, I'll have someone take it to Beili later... What is this?" Gu Shuo reached out to take it, and his eyes turned to catch a glimpse of the furry thing that suddenly appeared under Ye Qianning's feet.
When Ye Qianning was taking something out of the space, Dun Dun came out of the space, hugged his legs, and stared at Gu Shuo with his big eyes.
"It's a white ape."
"White ape? I've never heard of such an animal. Where did you find it?" Gu Shuo had never heard of this before.
"It has been living on the island. The white ape is very spiritual. Besides the Taoist priest, it has been the only one who has taken care of me for the past ten years."
"This thing is so small, and it can take care of people?"
"Dad, don't underestimate it. Maybe it's older than you. When it comes to taking care of people, I'm not as good as the white ape." Ye Qianning bent down and touched Dun Dun's head, his eyes soft.
Dun Dun likes Ye Qianning to touch his little head the most, he is very well-behaved.
Gu Shuo's eyes were filled with surprise: "It's bigger than me?"
Its body shape is similar to Bai Ling's, and judging from its appearance, it is obviously a juvenile.
"Well, the Taoist said that Dun Dun was on the island when he was young, and now the Taoist is over a hundred years old." Ye Qianning felt that the Taoist should be at the age of an old goblin.
Many of the things he occasionally talked about happened hundreds of years ago.
Gu Shuo thought of the old Taoist priest back then. Although his hair was white, he didn't look very old. "Is he really a hundred years old?"
"more than."
"Um?"
"On the island, time seems to be frozen except for the sunrise and sunset."
"Frozen?" Gu Shuo heard the most shocking word in his life.
"When I woke up, it seemed that the animals and birds on the island were all there. There was no new life, and no death. Time had not left any trace on the animals. Dun Dun was this big many years ago, and it's still this big today. Even it didn't know how many years it had lived on the island."
