Liu Demiao stood in the flower hall, looking around at everything, and was very shocked.
He never expected that the Chi family would be willing to spend several hundred taels of silver to buy such a courtyard!
"Oh my, Mr. Liu is a rare guest. It's good that you told us in advance so we could prepare the food and drinks properly."
Old Man Chi smiled when he saw Liu Demiao.
This is a very important person to their family!
Although it's a business transaction where the money and goods are exchanged, it's not their first time doing business. Boss Liu is really generous.
"Brother, what are you talking about? What kind of relationship do we have? Do we need to prepare in advance? I'm not here to catch up with you today, but because I have a clue about An'an."
"Clang!"
"Bang!"
"Ouch, Mom, what happened to you?"
"Are you alright, old woman?"
"grandmother."
Amidst the chaos and confusion, everyone gradually recovered from their shock.
The family surrounded Liu Demiao, constantly asking him about An'an.
Liu Demiao didn't keep anyone in suspense and quickly told them what he knew.
It turned out that after the Chi family asked Liu Demiao for help, Liu Demiao painted many portraits of An'an and gave one to each of his workers.
He promised that if the portrait worker brought it back and put it up at home for a month, he would get a certain amount of money; if he put it up for three months, he would get another amount of money; and if he could find it, he would get another amount of money.
Although Liu Demiao didn't have many workers under his command, through word of mouth, more and more people learned about An'an's situation.
It was also a coincidence.
Liu Demiao had a manager whose daughter-in-law's younger brother had contracted a lot of land in Pinghe Town to grow vegetables.
Because he was diligent and conscientious, and truly a master at growing vegetables, many high-ranking officials and nobles in the capital sought his services to deliver vegetables.
This includes the Yongchang Earl's Mansion.
The younger brother had seen An'an's portrait at his brother-in-law's house. One day, he happened to be delivering vegetables to the Yongchang Earl's Mansion and chatted with someone about An'an.
It was because of his loose tongue that he learned of An'an's whereabouts.
The people in the kitchen also said that they bought a little boy about half a year ago, also named An'an, who was about the same age...
What a coincidence?
The younger brother then took note of the situation and slipped some silver to the cook, saying that he would bring the portrait to take a look next time he came.
With money in hand, the cook would naturally get things done.
An'an usually doesn't associate with people, but when he learned that someone was looking for him, he came along.
The portrait matched the real person, and her younger brother also mentioned that the Chi family was looking for someone. Only then did An'an realize that her family had never given up on her! She immediately became excited and her eyes reddened.
Sure enough, as soon as Liu Demiao received the message from the shopkeeper, he rushed over to the Chi family.
"...I think I should make a trip there. It's such an important matter. It's better to talk about it in person so that it can be explained clearly."
Liu Demiao smiled kindly.
However, he didn't voice his own thoughts.
If you say it to my face, the gratitude will naturally be even greater.
The Chi family and the Princess's residence have such a good relationship. I don't seek to benefit from it, but as long as we get along well, I'll have more options if I encounter any difficulties in the future.
Liu Demiao, a self-taught individual with no connections, rose from a small vendor to a successful businessman, even managing to do business with officials of the Beiyang government. His success was solely due to his kind and benevolent nature!
Anything Liu Demiao happens to encounter, no matter how small the favor or how little money, is no problem.
Even if there's no reward.
What if you help someone ten times, and only one person repays you in the future?
When things really get tough, that's when it can save your life!
In fact, whether Liu Demiao said it or not, the Chi family understood and comprehended it.
Why should someone who's not related to you help you?
"Boss Liu, you are a great benefactor to my family! Sanhe, please kowtow to your Uncle Liu! This is a huge favor!"
Aunt Chi wiped away her tears, and even as she smiled, tears still rolled down her cheeks.
An'an!
An'an has actually been found!
Very good!
Did God hear her prayers?
She has to fulfill her vow!
Oh, and I should give my daughter some more money so she can properly thank the gods!
Chi Sanhe was also excited, so he knelt down and kowtowed five or six times!
The sound was exceptionally loud.
In the blink of an eye, Liu Demiao had taken five or six slaps from Chi Sanhe! He immediately jumped up as if his butt was on fire:
"Hey, Sanhe, get up! Look what this is! This is recording a good deed to accumulate merit! I'm happy to do it!"
real.
Even without the princess's influence, he would still be willing to forge this good relationship.
"Really, I can't thank you enough! I'm in a hurry to find An'an now, and once I bring An'an back... Mr. Liu, you are a great benefactor to my family!"
Old Man Chi held the other person's hand, overwhelmed with emotion, and almost knelt down.
Everyone else also kept thanking Liu Demiao.
This made even someone as shameless as Liu Demiao feel a little embarrassed.
“…Let’s not delay, let’s set off now.” Liu Demiao spoke first.
The Chi family is the most anxious about this matter.
But she felt awkward about urging Liu Demiao, since he had just arrived after a long journey...
"Hey brother, you're really generous! I won't stand on ceremony with you anymore, I'm really anxious... Shall we hit the road?"
"good."
The Chi family immediately discussed who should go.
After some discussion, it was decided that Uncle Chi, Aunt Chi, and Chi Sanhe would go, along with Chi Tang.
Chi Tang insisted on going, and considering their daughter's amazing abilities, the elderly couple finally agreed.
However, in private, Aunt Chi gave her daughter a stern lecture:
