Chapter 114: There is a difference between dignity and inferiority
Looking back on Anning's trip to Hu's house, Miss Hu San always works reliably, and Gu Anqing's business is hidden from the eldest master.
The Hu family has a heart, but in the end, they can't live with the big man, and the rumors have passed.
This will be the eldest lord came back, and he specially mentioned the matter, and he returned at this time of year after the winter solstice.
Gu Anqing will be obedient in the study, the eldest man is such a sister-in-law, and he is not happy to see his arm turned out.
"Now that your wings are stiff, the shop handed over to you is not well managed, but it is a bent on involving those unethical reselling businesses, and you can tell me what is going on. ”
The waterway taken by the Hu family, if they want to cross the river, is covered by the Hu family, and the so-called reselling business is just to collect some strange things from other places and go to other places.
The Hu family is now a rich party, and this business has been doing it, although it is reselling, it is like something from the south and foreign countries coming to Qizhou, and the price has doubled several times.
Gu Anqing had this thought of seeing how much he earned and how fast he earned, and he had long expected that his father would know, and after hearing this, he gave up. "The second uncle is also familiar with the Hu family, so he can't let the second uncle do this business alone, and the child also thinks about it a lot, so he found the Hu family. ”
"Confused!"
When the old man heard this, he slapped his palm and hit the desk, the startled tea cup made a sound, and the study room was even more silent.
Gu Anqing is not afraid of his own father, the eldest master has always been strict with his heirs, especially this sister-in-law will inherit the family business in the future.
"At the beginning, the Hu family mentioned to me about their business with us, but I refused, and turned my head to find your second uncle, now what are you? You are licking your face and begging for help, I don't know when the Gu family is so worried that there is no way out. ”
The eldest lord's anger is also reasonable, aside from this, this is not a joke, he is so shallow in his eyes.
"Dad, don't be annoyed. The child is also doing this to make money, what the second uncle can do, why can't we do it, not to mention that it is not still in the account. "Gu Anqing's temperament does not follow the master.
The eldest master is the heir of the Eight Classics. It has always been different from the descendants, and everything is respectful and humble.
"Shallow-eyed, your second uncle will not be in his own family in the future, and he will go out to set up his own door, if you think the same way. I'm going to follow you!"
The old man was angry, Gu Anqing heard this, and then lowered his head and said. "Dad, the child wants to find out the doorway, and now the Qizhou Canal is in the hands of the Hu family, which can be said to be covered by one hand on the water, the four wharves in the east, west, south and north, and the ones that are close to us are a lot of fat water, and the child thinks. Wait for the next year to divide the power of the canal. ”
Gu Anqing is indeed doing business with the Hu family, but this business is done with ulterior motives, how can that little business alone get into his eyes.
"You think too much about the Hu family. After listening to Gu Anqing's words, the eldest man sighed and sat down. "The Hu family has a deep foundation, our Gu family is indeed deeply favored by the emperor, and the old lady was deeply loved by the people of Qizhou when he was alive, but when our generation came to a little declined, the old lady couldn't get a piece of the Hu family back then, and now you, the younger generation, still want to fight this idea?"
Although the eldest lord disdains to have a deep friendship with the Hu family, it can be said. The Gu family's wide connections are also closely related to bureaucrats, and they only ensure their income in business, and they are not limited to their identities in the second room, and the people they deal with naturally do not ask about their backgrounds.
The Hu family's connections can be described as the north and south of the world. From this canal to Qizhou, from Qizhou to the south of the canal zone, there are countless people, rich and bureaucrats.
Especially now, the Gu family is no longer as prosperous as it was back then, and listening to the letters of the third and fourth brothers, this saint has been sick for several days. The DPRK and China are arguing about the establishment of the prince, and if the Gu family is wrong, they will suffer disasters in the future.
The eldest lord was thinking about this and would never allow his son to provoke the Hu family. "It's better for you to put away these thoughts, and you are not allowed to interact with the Hu family in the future, if your second uncle knows about this, I'm afraid you won't have the face to call him second uncle again." ”
Hearing this, Gu Anqing was a little unimpressed. "The child knows. ”
Coming out of the study and going back to the courtyard, the Rong family hurriedly greeted him, saw that Gu Anqing's face was not good, and asked questions softly. "Husband, what did Dad say?"
Gu Anqing had already sat down, so Rong poured tea and handed it over, and only listened to him after a while. "I can say more, but because of the Hu family's business, the old man asked me to stop this business. ”
"Leave this business?" Rong sat down and said worriedly. "This business doesn't look good, but it's much better than a silk shop to make money, not to mention, my father is also a little selfish, and he will take care of the third and fourth brothers with a few shops in a good area. ”
When Gu Anqing heard this, his mind became irritable at the moment. "I know what you said, but since Dad has spoken, he can't anger Daddy, so I'll just stop it. ”
"How's that going to work? As soon as Gu Anqing came to do business with the Hu family, she also had more money on hand, and she went out a little more, and the rest was loose.
At the moment, this business will not be done if it is not done, and I am not happy.
"On the surface, it is better to entrust this matter to the ninth sister, but in this way, the ninth sister will definitely eat a point, but it is better than nothing. "How can the Rong family be willing, now that there is no mother's family and no heirs, no matter how much she is the second young lady, it is not as good as the beginning.
This reward goes down, usually generous, and there are fewer rewards when there is no time, and the people below are procrastinating. ”
Gu Anqing didn't care about the business, if it was gone, it would be gone, but when he heard the Rong family mention it, he should also give it up.
Rong was very happy to see him, and in the afternoon, he asked people to prepare some pastries to take a look at Gu Anning.
After the winter solstice, Gu Anning no longer went to school, there was no screen in the house, Li's mother knew that she was afraid of cold, so she made a thick cloth curtain and hung it at the door a few days ago, and a stove was added to the house, which was much warmer.
"Look, girl, it's going to be particles. ”
Qingzhu was about to close the window, and then open it for ventilation after a while, hearing this, Gu Anning moved his sore arm to look out of the window, the particles were big, and there was a crackling sound on the roof.
"I guess it's going to snow tonight. Mother Li took the sweet potato that had just been simmered and put it hot in Gu Anning's hand.
Gu Anning felt that her hands were warm, and she didn't go out for a walk for a few days, just because it was too cold on this day, and people were panicked when they wore too much.
Although it is a thick cloak, it is still cold and lazy and unwilling to step out.
These days, Gu Anning got up later and later, as if he couldn't wake up, he slept until noon yesterday, and when he got up, he was also groggy, and he couldn't go to the main courtyard to ask for peace, so Li's mother went for a run. (To be continued.) )
