The salt merchant surnamed Liu did not have a large share of the salt and maritime business. Although he made a lot of profits every year, it was not so coveted by everyone that he would risk his life for it. The fifth prince asked for it several times, openly and secretly.
When that failed, I stopped thinking about it and never mentioned it again.
Of course, the reason why the fifth prince gave up his thoughts so simply was because he wrote to "Xiao Yao" to ask if there was any good way to get this profit from Gu Qiancheng in an honest way.
"Xiaoyao" only replied: It's best not to. This is something the emperor gave to King Qin. Asking for too much will only make the emperor think you are too big-hearted. The emperor will like a big-hearted son, but a big heart will make people greedy.
impression.
After hearing this, the fifth prince had no choice but to stop. He had just taken over the preparations for Tianxia Bank from Qin Jiyan, and he did not let go of even this small profit. He was indeed greedy.
Without the constant pressure from the fifth prince, Gu Qiancheng finally had some free time and was about to tidy up his residence. The concierge was about to report that the second young master of the Feng family had arrived.
"Yan Chen?" Gu Qiancheng was quite surprised and sent someone around him to pick him up at the door in person.
"Sister Qiancheng, sister Qiancheng..." The younger brother of the Feng family arrived before anyone else arrived. As soon as Gu Qiancheng looked up, he saw the younger brother of the Feng family holding a little ferret, sweating profusely as he ran, and he hurriedly stood up to greet him.
Going up, "Why are you running so fast? I'm covered in sweat."
Gu Qiancheng was about to ask his servants to fetch water for the Feng family's younger brother, but the Feng family's younger brother waved his hand, "It's okay, just sit down for a while. Sister Qiancheng, don't be busy. I came to see you today for something."
"Squeak, squeak..." The little ferret started to fuss in the arms of the younger brother of the Feng family, not wanting to be left alone. Its thick neck stretched out as far as it could go, and it desperately leaned forward, asking Gu Qiancheng to hold it.
"What's the matter?" Gu Qiancheng patted the little ferret, motioning it to be quiet, and then led the Feng family's younger brother to sit down.
"Sister Qiancheng, hold it first, it's too noisy." The younger brother of the Feng family first stuffed the little ferret into Gu Qiancheng's arms, then sat down and wiped his sweat with a handkerchief.
Looking at the extremely well-behaved little ferret in Gu Qiancheng's arms, the younger brother of the Feng family became depressed and said, "Sister Qiancheng, this little thing is so noisy." He was about to go crazy from the torment.
"Noisy? Isn't it quite well-behaved?" Gu Qiancheng raised the little ferret in confusion. In order to prove that he was very well-behaved, the little ferret nodded his head desperately, his chubby little body trembled, and the eyes under his eyes
The two pieces of flesh were almost squeezing those little eyes into slits.
"This is in your hands." The younger brother of the Feng family looked depressed, "It's so noisy in my house. My eldest brother couldn't stand it anymore and asked me to send it back to you quickly." If it weren't for this, the younger brother of the Feng family wouldn't be willing to give it away.
When he came back, the little ferret made a fuss, but it was measured, and even Grandpa liked it.
"What did it do?" It made the good-tempered Feng Sijin intolerable?
Gu Qiancheng felt that she needed to formalize the little thing in her hand. This was too extraordinary.
"Zhizhi..." The little ferret bit Gu Qiancheng proudly, then jumped up and landed on the ground, its plump body still agile.
Very good. Although he has eaten well and gained a lot of weight recently, his skills have become better. It can be seen that it has caused trouble to the younger brother of the Feng family recently.
Perhaps knowing that the younger brother of the Feng family was going to sue it, the little ferret sniffed around and found that its master's scent was everywhere, so the little ferret ran out happily.
"Follow it, don't let anyone hurt it." Gu Qiancheng said to the maid beside him.
The maid did not dare to delay, so she bent her knees and retreated. She knew in her heart that except for the two young masters, everyone in the Gu family combined could not compare to the little ferret's status in Gu Qiancheng's heart.
"The little thing runs so fast." The younger brother of the Feng family said with a look of reluctance, "It would be nice if it didn't pester my elder brother so much. I really can't let it go."
Hearing this again, Gu Qiancheng couldn't help but ask: "What did it do? Make you love and hate it?"
"I only love and hate it. It's my elder brother who loves and hates it." The younger brother of the Feng family took a sip of tea and recounted the heroic performance of the little ferret in the Feng family one by one.
It would be easy to bite Feng Sijin's pen or tear Feng Sijin's book. Every time Feng Sijin was about to read a book, the little ferret would lie down opposite Feng Sijin, facing Feng Sijin on all sides, and would notice some noise from time to time.
.
Feng Sijin can still bear these things. Although the scientific examination is coming soon, it doesn't matter to him whether he can read or not now. What makes Feng Sijin most depressed is that no matter how tightly he closes the house at night, the little ferret can
Climb into his house and get into his bed.
It would be fine if the little ferret could sleep peacefully, but it happened that the little ferret mainly made trouble three or five times at night. As soon as Feng Sijin opened his eyes, he met the little ferret's shining eyes. No matter how good-tempered he was, he would still be beaten.
It tortures him like crazy. If it continues like this, he really won't be able to pass the scientific examination.
"Except for my brother, it doesn't bother anyone else. It just likes to cling to my brother. As soon as my brother appears, it can find him no matter where he is." The younger brother of the Feng family became more and more depressed as he talked, "Sister Qiancheng, what do you mean about me?
I'm so kind to it in normal times. I feed it everything I can't bear to eat, give it a bath, and make a little nest for it, but it won't bother me."
"Not only me, but my grandpa and my mother also like little ferrets. My mother has not done needlework for many years. She has been sewing for the past two days to make clothes for the little ferret, but the little thing just doesn't appreciate it. Who do you want to do?
I ignore them all, but I just like to pester my brother." The Feng family's younger brother became more and more depressed as he talked, and his little face wrinkled up. Gu Qiancheng couldn't help laughing, "Don't get angry with the little thing, it's
I'm ignorant, I apologize to you on my behalf." It looked like he was about to be sent back.
"How can it be ignorant? It is obviously very sensible. My father said that little things have become sperms and they know how to pick good-looking people." The younger brother of the Feng family said that it was not only the little ferret that hurt it, but also his family members.
he.
She is obviously his pet, but she loves him so much that it makes people fail.
The younger brother of the Feng family is already disappointed with the ferret who only cares about his face.
Gu Qiancheng really didn't know how to comfort the younger brother of the Feng family, so he had to change the subject and asked: "Didn't you say you have something to do with me? What's the matter?"
"Oh...yes, yes, I came with a mission today." When it came to business, the younger brother of the Feng family put away his depression and hurriedly took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Gu Qiancheng, "Sister Qiancheng
, to...the letter my elder brother asked me to forward to you."
"Your eldest brother?" The two families are not far apart. Do you need to write a letter?
Gu Qiancheng took the letter with a puzzled look on his face and knew after just one glance, "Isn't this the handwriting of your eldest brother?"
"Well, my elder brother handed it over to someone, but I don't know who it is." The younger brother of the Feng family spread his hands with an innocent look on his face.
Keeping in mind his eldest brother's instructions, the younger brother of the Feng family did not dare to disturb Gu Qiancheng from reading the letter, "Sister Qiancheng, read the letter slowly while I go to play with Cheng Huan. By the way, I will have dinner at your place at noon."
After saying that, he ran out quickly, not treating himself as an outsider at all...
