More than twenty years ago, that is, more than twenty years ago, he had already started doing business in the Celestial Empire, or rather, in the south.

I held the cup in both hands, and the temperature of the hot tea soup was ironed with cold fingers. I slowly said, "Then, is there any other goods in the business that Uncle Gui does besides the fresh things outside?"

Uncle Gui looked at me: "Miss Yue asked--"

"For example - iron tools."

Hearing the word "Iron Tool", Uncle Gui's face changed slightly, not like panic, but just like the kind of sudden loss of consciousness, but he quickly came back to his senses and said with a smile: "Do you two come to inquire about this because of the south?"

My heart moved.

Although this person looks smiling, he is worthy of being a person who has been on the sea for more than 20 years. His eyes are as bright as a gaze. He can immediately think of the chaos in the south from one of our questions. It seems that even if those weapons were not sold by him, it has nothing to do with him.

I smiled and said, "Uncle Ghost knows a lot."

Qinghan looked at him with a burning gaze: "Since Uncle Gui talks to the south as soon as he opens his mouth, I must have been involved in it."

Uncle Gui looked at us, waved his hand with a smile, and said, "Two, you misunderstood."

"oh?"

Uncle Gui smiled and said, "Your laws prohibit iron ore mining privately. I think your emperor has very strict jurisdiction over weapons. Since this is the case, how can he still touch the emperor's reverse scales and do such a business?"

Qinghan and I looked at each other.

His words are true.

He seems to be the first foreigner who comes to Beijing to do business. He naturally needs to be more cautious at the feet of the emperor. If he really involves things in the south, coming here again will be a death sentence.

Qinghan and I couldn't help but frown.

At this time, Uncle Gui said, "But, although I don't do it, someone else will do it."

When we heard this, we suddenly felt nervous and we hurriedly looked at him: "Who is it?"

Uncle Gui looked at us and hesitated a little. Qinghan immediately understood and said to him with a smile: "Uncle Gui, don't worry. The government officials asked, so they naturally took you to the yamen to ask. Since we came to the door, we were just passers-by who came to inquire about the news. Even if we heard it, we would have to say it."

He said this in ambiguously, but he also gave Uncle Gui a hint.

Actually, I think that as soon as I entered the door, Uncle Gui and the others could see that my identity was extraordinary. Even if the official lady went out, she could not bring so many followers. In addition to the questions about weapons in the south, who else had such courage?

Uncle Gui looked at me carefully, then looked at him again, and was silent for a while, and finally said slowly: "Okay, I'll tell you."
