Guo Song was startled. This Wei Gao later served as the military governor of Jiannan and had a close relationship with Xue Tao. He actually met him in Chengdu Mansion.
Guo Song is also quite famous in Chang'an now. He has quarreled with the prime minister twice and was dismissed from office twice. Everyone in Chang'an knows it. He didn't want to get into trouble, so he smiled lightly and said: "My surname is Song and Guo. I am from Lingzhou. I am currently studying in Chang'an.
I came here especially to visit Sichuan."
"It turns out to be Young Master Song. Can you show me the beautiful jade?"
Guo Song took off the jade pendant from his waist and handed it to him. Wei Gao was born in the direct line of the Wei family in Chang'an. His family was well-off and he was also obsessed with jade. He was immediately fascinated by Guo Song's beautiful mutton-fat jade.
After a long while, he struggled to pull his eyes out of the beautiful jade. Wei Gao hesitated and said, "Young Master, can I part with this piece of jade? I'm willing to pay a high price."
Guo Song took out a piece of jade from his horse bag and said with a smile: "This piece can be transferred, but the piece in your hand cannot."
Wei Gao took the jade from Guo Song. The whiteness of this piece was slightly inferior, but it was also very warm and delicate, without any impurities or flaws. It could also be regarded as a mutton-fat jade. He reluctantly returned the previous mutton-fat jade to Guo Song.
, rubbed the last piece of jade again, and immediately felt the oil overflowing. He suddenly felt happy and asked quickly: "How much does this piece of jade cost? I want it!"
Guo Song chuckled and said, "I usually don't sell it, I only give it to people who are destined to do it. Since you like it, just give me a hundred taels of silver."
Several soldiers nearby jumped up immediately, "You are robbing money! A piece of broken stone costs one hundred taels of silver."
Wei Gao waved his hands hurriedly, "Don't talk nonsense, you can't buy this kind of beautiful jade for five hundred taels of silver. They are giving it half to half!"
He thought for a while, took out a small golden Buddha from his horse bag, and handed it to Guo Song, "I got this small golden Buddha last year. It weighs thirty taels, and I gave it to Mr. Song."
Guo Song was not polite and happily accepted the golden Buddha and said with a smile: "Wei Shijun is a righteous person and will have a bright future. It is fate to meet Wei Shijun. I hope to see you again in Chang'an if I have the opportunity!"
Wei Gao saw that he was calm and composed, neither humble nor arrogant. He was not afraid of officials at all like ordinary people. In addition, he was outstanding in talent. Wei Gao secretly marveled that this man was extraordinary and definitely not a thing in the pond. He also had a desire to make friends, so he
He took out a famous post and handed it to Guo Song, "This is my post. If Mr. Song has any difficulties in Bashu, just come to me and I will try my best to help!"
Guo Song took the post and said with a smile: "Then thank Wei Shijun for his love in advance!"
...........
Guo Song entered Chengdu County from the North City Gate. The county was bustling with traffic and people, even busier than Chang'an. Guo Song found the Chengdu branch of Jubaoge on East Street, which was opened by Zhang Lei in Chengdu last year.
Zhang Lei and Li Wenyu were both from Shu. The couple followed Guo Song's advice and bought a house and opened a shop in Chengdu to leave a way out for themselves.
They opened a large tea shop in Chengdu called Yulei Tea House. They purchased tea cakes from all over Bashu and distributed them in Chengdu. They also shipped them to Chang'an for sale. Yulei Tea House in West City has been ranked in the Chang'an Tea Market.
Top five, but they are very low-key, almost no one knows that they also have a tea house.
Jubao Pavilion Jewelry Shop opened last year and entered Chengdu’s high-end jewelry market as soon as it opened. After all, it is one of the three largest jewelry stores in Chang’an. In addition, you can also buy authentic small bottles of Meishou wine in Jubao Pavilion.
Invisibly, it has improved the quality of Jubao Pavilion Jewelry Shop.
Guo Song walked into the door of the jewelry store, and was immediately greeted by a clerk. His eyes were poisonous, and he saw the mutton-fat white jade on Guo Song's waist. The best piece of mutton-fat white jade in the store sold for two thousand yuan, which was far from what others had.
This one is good!
The waiter immediately stood in awe and greeted him with great enthusiasm, "Welcome to our store, sir!"
"Is Shopkeeper Jia here?"
The shopkeeper of the Chengdu store is the second shopkeeper of Jubao Pavilion in Beijing, surnamed Jia. He is responsible for arranging Guo Song's residence.
At this time, a short and fat middle-aged man came out. He had met Guo Song once and had a vague impression. More importantly, he received a pigeon letter from the proprietor and knew that Guo Song was coming to Chengdu. The proprietor was in the pigeon letter.
It was vaguely revealed that Mr. Guo is the real owner of Jubao Pavilion.
"Are you... Mr. Guo?"
Guo Song smiled and nodded, and the shopkeeper immediately became extremely enthusiastic, "I received a pigeon letter from the proprietor. I have been waiting for Mr. Guo for a long time. Please take a seat in the back hall."
Guo Song pointed outside and said, "I have two more followers. Please make arrangements with the shopkeeper first."
"Don't worry! I'll make arrangements."
The shopkeeper ordered the waiter to take his two attendants to rest. He took Guo Song to the back room and ordered the maid to serve tea.
"When did the young master arrive in Chengdu?"
Guo Song picked up the tea cup and said with a smile: "When we first arrived in Chengdu, the road was not easy. We actually walked for ten days."
"Then the road to Shu is difficult!"
Although Shopkeeper Jia knew that Guo Song was the big proprietor of Jubao Pavilion, he didn't dare to ask any more questions. This was also a secret in Chang'an Jubao Pavilion. Everyone knew that there was another big proprietor, but Boss Zhang didn't allow anyone to ask any more questions.
"Young master, you have worked hard all the way. I'm here to arrange food and drinks for you."
Guo Song smiled and waved his hand, "I've already eaten outside the city. Shopkeeper Jia just tells me where he lives. I'll handle the rest by myself without bothering you."
"The house is ready. Master, take a rest for a while. I will tidy up and take you there. The house is nearby."
Guo Song rested for a while and then took his two followers to the prepared house.
"My boss bought a total of three houses in Chengdu. One is behind Jubao Pavilion, which is where I and the guys live. One is in the east of the city, next to Yulei Tea House, where the shopkeeper and the guys of the tea house live. The other one is
The house we are going to is the proprietor’s own house.”
Shopkeeper Jia led Guo Song and his entourage as they walked west along the East Street for more than 300 steps. In front of them was the Chengdu East Market. They entered a neighborhood, which was extremely lively, with shops of all sizes, and carved beams and painted buildings everywhere.
Various buildings, the shopkeeper pointed to a big house and said: "That's it!"
Zhang Lei is a businessman after all, and the houses he chose are all located in the most developed commercial areas. The house covers an area of eight acres, and there is only an old couple living in the huge house to look after the house.
The house was not bad. The third person entered the big house and it was fully furnished. Shopkeeper Jia prepared bedding and other daily necessities for them. Except for eating, which needed to be taken care of outside, everything else was not lacking.
In fact, there is a restaurant dozens of steps away diagonally across from them, which is very convenient for eating.
Shopkeeper Jia left. That night, Guo Song stayed in Chengdu for the night. At dawn the next day, he left Chengdu for Jianzhou.
Jianzhou is located south of Chengdu, less than a hundred miles away. At dusk that day, Guo Song arrived at Yang'an County. Before arriving at Yang'an County, Guo Song felt something strange. He saw countless people supporting the old and the young.
As they fled towards the county town in panic, Guo Song stopped an old man and asked, "Old man, what happened?"
"I heard that Yang Zilin, the governor of Luzhou, rebelled. The army has already entered Jianzhou and will be here soon."
Guo Song was shocked and urged his horse to run towards the county town. In just a moment, they rushed to the gate of the county town. They saw that the gate was in chaos. Countless people were trying to flee. A dozen soldiers wanted to stop them, but they couldn't.
Unable to stop them, several women were pushed to the ground, crying.
"If you can't stop them, let them out of the city!"
Guo Song shouted, and several soldiers hesitated for a moment. They were immediately pushed away by the people. The city gate was like a river bursting its embankments. Countless people surged out, and more than a thousand people ran out.
Be a little looser.
Guo Song led his entourage and rode into the county town. The county town was filled with cries, shouts, curses, and shouts, and the streets were in chaos.
Guo Song grabbed someone and asked, "Where is the state government office?"
The man pointed forward randomly, broke free from Guo Song's hand and ran away.
At this time, a familiar roar came from the front, which seemed to be Kang Bao's voice. Guo Song was startled and looked intently. He saw nearly a hundred celebrities in front of him who seemed to be blocking a carriage. Kang Bao waved the iron rod and flew left and right.
Open a road ahead so that no one dares to approach, but there is a roadblock ahead and the carriage cannot move forward.
When Guo Song saw a soldier preparing to get in through the left window, he immediately raised his bow and arrow, and shot out an arrow, hitting the soldier's lower back. The soldier screamed and was kicked out of the carriage.
"Let's go!"
Guo Song drew his black sword and went to kill them. He didn't know whether these soldiers were good or bad, so he didn't kill them. However, wherever he passed, the soldiers were cut and wounded one after another, and they rushed to clear a path.
When Kang Bao saw his lord appear, he was overjoyed and shouted: "My lord, Miss Xue is in the carriage!"
In the carriage, the horrified Xue Tao suddenly saw her lover through the window. She was immediately overjoyed and she put her head out and shouted: "Guo Lang, I'm here!"
She didn't care that her mother was also in the car, and directly called out the name of the lover she had been missing for the past few months.
Guo Song galloped over, held her hand and asked, "What happened?"
Xue Tao's eyes suddenly turned red, and he held Guo Song's hand tightly and said: "Prince Zhang surrendered to Yang Zilin, and wanted to force my father to surrender too. My father refused, and he was arrested by them. When we got the news, we wanted to escape, but these are the results
The soldiers blocked our way, Guo Lang, why are you here?"
Guo Song smiled slightly and said, "I made a special trip from Chang'an to visit you."
Xue Tao was so moved that he burst into tears with excitement. He held his lover's hand and refused to let go.
At this time, Han, who was sitting in the back, couldn't help but said: "Tao'er, it's still very dangerous now. I'll leave the city first."
Xue Tao let go of Guo Song, took a deep look at his lover, and returned to the carriage.
With the help of Guo Song's two followers, Kang Bao had already moved the roadblock. Guo Song saw that the soldiers around him were just shouting fiercely, but did not dare to actually come to intercept, so he ordered: "Let's go!"
Guo Song picked up a spear next to him and escorted the carriage towards the city gate. At this time, a general from behind came galloping on horseback and shouted: "Who told you to let them go? The governor has an order.
Catch them all!"
Guo Song was furious, and with a wave of his arms, his spear drew a straight line, and instantly stabbed the general in the chest. The general screamed, flew back ten feet, and was nailed to the ground alive.
The soldiers were so frightened that their faces turned pale, and no one dared to step forward to intercept them. They watched helplessly as the carriage drove out of the city gate.
