Gu Zhirong asked the ship's helmsman to speed up and arrive in Jiangzhou as soon as possible. She thought about it carefully, and arrived in Jiangzhou a day earlier, and she just happened to do her own business. The next day was delivery time, and if she expected it to be true, a lot would have happened that day.

The big ship docked early the next morning, and the boatlady cooked the meal and brought it up. After Gu Zhirong and the others had eaten, they left the jade cicada and Mu Jin as the lining, Gu Zhirong took the bright moon and green water, boarded the carriage that had long been moored on the shore, and brought the gifts prepared by the old lady, and he also prepared one, and brought it with him, and after the counting, the three of them boarded the car and left.

Halfway through the car, Gu Zhirong asked the location of the Qingjiang Prefecture Baojian Hall, asked the coachman to turn around, and went to the Baojian Hall first. Seeing that Lu Shui looked puzzled, Mingyue explained: "Jiangzhou is a border place, where fish and dragons are mixed, and bandits are rampant. But even so, Baojiantang has stood here for a long time, proving that in this place, Baojiantang still has considerable power. ”

Gu Zhirong said approvingly: "Mingyue is right, if we want to be able to do business smoothly in various places, we really have to rely on the power of Baojian Hall more or less, and it is necessary to build a good relationship." ”

Lu Shui was stunned for a moment, and then came to his senses: "Could it be that the young lady befriended Baojiantang in order to rely on it?"

Mingyue was puzzled: "Of course, otherwise, why do you think so?"

Lu Shui laughed: "I think that although the young master of the Treasure Jian Hall does not show his true face, he is still quite good to us, just take the deposit last time." He paid us all the honorarium at once, without even frowning. I look at this person, it's really refreshing. ”

Gu Zhirong smiled faintly: "Cheerful people are not all good people. If he behaves openly. Why can't you show people for what they really are?"

Lu Shui nodded: "I understand, Miss minds that he wears that silver mask all year round." But then again, either this young master of Baojian Hall has been ugly since he was a child, or he has suffered some accident and has been disfigured, for fear of scaring others. It's hard to show your true face, so you wear a mask?"

Gu Zhirong said: "What Lu Shui said is not unreasonable, but you have to be clear. We are in business, and we usually speculate on each other's mental activities based on each other's expressions, and the sincerity of their cooperation with us. Now that we are doing such a big business with Baojiantang, we can't even see the true face of each other. If someone is trying to deceive. And if we trust each other too much, won't it be easy to be deceived?"

Lu Shui suddenly woke up: "Yes, why didn't I think of this?"

Gu Zhirong smiled: "This point is actually my negligence. But since he is unwilling to show his true face, there must be his reasons, and if we are blindly persistent, we will inevitably embarrass the other party. But if there is a trust, it's different. ”

Green Water clapped his hands and said, "Yes, it's best to have a trustworthy word." The slave maid remembered that the young lady said that the white jade pendant that the young master of the Baojian Hall gave to the young lady last time was very good. In the future, if we use this as a basis of faith, we don't have to worry about it. ”

Gu Zhirong nodded and said, "Okay." Then when I see the young master the day after tomorrow, I will ask him to go. ”

Mingyue couldn't help laughing: "What are you two talking about, other people's jade pendants must be valuable, and they are naturally worn all year round." If you ask for it for no reason, people may not be willing to give it. ”

Gu Zhirong sighed: "This is really a problem, in addition to recognizing that jade pendant is what he is wearing, I haven't found out what he is wearing." Forget it, just ask him for a jade pendant, and if you don't give it, you won't do business with him in the future. ”

Mingyue said with a smile: "Miss is playing with a child's temper again, isn't it?Baojiantang is famous all over the world, and that young master must also be an honest person, why does Miss have to make a big fuss about the mask he covers, and ask his jade pendant as a proof?"

Gu Zhirong said seriously: "Mingyue, you don't understand this. What is the basis for our Jiangnan Caoyun to stand firm for hundreds of years? It is to be cautious, my mother is like this, and so is my grandfather. ”

Mingyue said with a smile: "Okay, Miss, I can't tell you, if you really want to rely on faith, go with that young master, and it depends on what others do if you give it or not." ”

Gu Zhirong squeezed his eyes towards the bright moon and green water: "Don't worry, I will definitely get it." ”

Lu Shui immediately echoed: "Then I wish Miss a success." ”

A trace of doubt flashed in Mingyue's heart: "Miss, it's so dignified, why do you want someone else's jade pendant?"

"Believe it. Gu Zhirong said very simply, "Could it be that you think I came here, and then turned around and sold it?"

Mingyue couldn't think of why, so she smiled and said, "Miss said this, the slave really believed that Miss would sell it." Therefore, the slave maid can only pray that the young master's jade pendant will not be so valuable, and not be favored by the young lady, so as not to really have no return. ”

Gu Zhirong smiled, even if it was a priceless jade pendant, if it didn't have a usable value, in her eyes, it was no different from those worthless stones. She is so determined to want the young master's jade pendant, she has her own purpose.

I sent a gift to the Baojian Hall in Jiangzhou, which was regarded as a hello. Gu Zhirong believes that in the next two days, everything she walks around in Jiangzhou City will be very smooth, and there will naturally be someone to take care of her.

As soon as the shopkeeper-like person in the Baojian Hall saw the words of the Yuanning Marquis Mansion, his attitude immediately became respectful, and he said with a smile: "The young master has explained, the fifth lady is a distinguished guest, and she must be entertained." Although the fifth lady lives in this Jiangzhou city with peace of mind, the villain has already arranged the following things according to the instructions of the young master. ”

The rest of the matter has been arranged? Mingyue Lushui was confused and didn't understand what this meant.

Gu Zhirong said with a smile: "Then there is the shopkeeper Lao, when I see the young master, help me bring me a sentence and let him bother." ”

"Miss Fifth is polite. The shopkeeper said as he personally sent Gu Zhirong out of the door.

At the door, I don't know when a royal blue canopy folded feather tassel carriage was parked, which was extremely luxurious. As soon as he saw Gu Zhirong and the others coming out, the coachman immediately jumped out of the car, and Xun also took off the low stool and put it in front of Gu Zhirong.

Gu Zhirong was slightly stunned, and was about to ask, but the shopkeeper had already preemptively said: "Fifth Miss, you are new to the city, and you don't know the weather in Jiangzhou. It's close to Biansai, the wind is very strong, and there is frost at night. You've come from afar, and it's not good if you catch a cold. Therefore, the young master specially ordered the villain to prepare this carriage for the use of the fifth lady. And this coachman is a good handle, there will be absolutely no bumps along the way. ”

Next to him, Mingyue Lushui's eyes were already widened. Such a luxurious carriage, even the carriage exclusive to the old lady in the Yuanning Marquis Mansion is not so luxurious. What is the origin of this young master of Baojian Hall who can afford such a carriage?

Gu Zhirong pondered slightly, and then said briskly: "Since the young master is kind, then I am also gracious, okay, thank you for your young master on my behalf." ”

With that, he stepped on a low stool and got into the carriage. (To be continued......)
