Chapter 49: The Golden Post
The fact that Gu Jiang got the invitation from the Marquis of Jingyuan Mansion quickly caused a sensation in the entire Chongyun Academy, and he was still the first academy student to have this kind of treatment.
Many students immediately came to watch because of this incident, and one of them, a second-year college with some identity and knowledge, was even more surprised when they saw Gu Jiang's invitation.
"I saw the invitation from the Hou Mansion once in the courtyard last year, but this one of yours is different from what I have seen, this one of yours is a golden post!"
"Ahh......h
Gu Jiang took the invitation to his mouth and bit it when he spoke, and asked suspiciously, "Where is the gold?"
The classmate hurriedly explained: "This is not the meaning of the golden post, if you look at the handwriting on it, it is all golden, and the meaning is even different." Ordinary silver stickers can only be seated in person, but gold stickers can bring people in. ”
In previous years, the Hou Mansion would also issue individual gold posts, most of which were people with distinguished status.
Of course, the person who receives the golden post only distinguishes his own status, and will bring a subordinate to the banquet, so there has long been an unwritten rule, in the banquet, but if you bring a subordinate guest, the identity is naturally superior.
Gu Jiang ignored these, put the invitation in his arms, and thought in his heart that he could take Luan Su and Sun Xiaoyi in to open his eyes, and by the way, get the fat girl in and have a good meal.
In fact, Gu Jiang is not stupid, when he squatted with a few spirit beasts at night, he knew that he was a pound, and the other party would never send him an invitation for no reason.
"If you want me to say, the other party must want to know why Gu Jiang's cultivation can improve so quickly. ”
Ima Hong was the first to express her opinion, and the reason was simple, but it was also recognized by the rest.
After some summarization, several spirit beasts came to the conclusion that the reason why Gu Jiang was able to improve rapidly was mainly because of two points. One is because of the unknown Nine Rank Water Spiritual Vein, and on the other hand, it is because of the various pills that have been taken endlessly during this time.
"Then what should I do? If the other party asks, what should I say?
Ima Hong hurriedly interjected and said, "This is not good, if he knows that we can refine the pill, it will be troublesome if the other party has bad intentions." It's better to confess your water spirit vein. ”
Lisabeth thought for a while and said: "The other party is not stupid, even if she knows the water spirit vein, what about Luan Su? She can't also have the Nine Rank Spirit Vein, in my opinion, it is better to admit the matter of the pill, I have a way to do this, maybe I can make a lot of money." ”
Several people discussed it for a night and made up their minds, Gu Jiang didn't worry too much, no matter how fierce that Hou Ye was, could he still compare to Mao Lanlan?
After preparing for a day, Gu Jiang was about to go out happily with Luan Su and the fat girl, but Wu Tengnan appeared out of nowhere and stopped Gu Jiang.
"You're not cooking today?"
"Get some for yourself, and I'll take them to the feast." ”
Gu Jiang replied casually, Wu Tengnan's face drooped, and he didn't say anything.
Suddenly feeling that he was a little unrighteous, Gu Jiang raised the invitation in his hand again and said, "Why don't you close the door early and go with me, I heard that this invitation can enter many people." ”
Wu Tengnan didn't care about the invitation in his hand when he saw it, but after looking at it twice, he asked with some surprise: "You are the invitation from the Marquis of Jingyuan's mansion?"
Gu Jiang nodded, but Wu Tengnan's expression changed instantly, and his face looked strange.
"No, no, go. ”
Lao Dao threw down a sentence, turned his head and returned to Wu Dao in the center.
A few people were bored, and they rushed towards the Jingyuan Marquis Mansion.
Soon arrived at the south of Guanghua City, there were more and more pedestrians on the road, and a luxurious mansion in front of it had already been lit up, and it was the Jingyuan Marquis Mansion that could be felt only from a distance.
There are no less than 1,000 people gathered outside the Hou Mansion, there are people who come to the banquet, there are many people who fish in troubled waters, there are many vendors on both sides of the road, and most of the antique calligraphy and painting sellers in the city have come over, maybe they can catch up with anyone who does not find a suitable gift, and they can also make a small profit.
When he came to the door of the Hou Mansion, Gu Jiang was not in a hurry to enter, but looked around, and soon saw Sun Xiaoyi crowding over from the crowd on the left.
"Are you all here?"
Gu Jiang asked, Sun Xiaoyi nodded and said: "It's all right, there are a total of one hundred and twenty-six people, each of whom received twenty spirit stones, and there are also some who have a good relationship and some less, I will settle the account for you when I go back later." ”
Gu Jiang nodded with satisfaction, and saw Sun Xiaoyi running towards the left, and in an alley, there was a huge team standing, all of them in the costumes of Chongyun Academy, a total of one hundred and twenty-six people.
"Pay attention to order when you enter the door, don't embarrass Gu Jiang, you know?"
The colleges nodded cooperatively, in order to make the team neat and orderly, Sun Xiaoyi also deliberately made a small red flag to hold above his head, and rushed towards Gu Jiang with everyone, looking like a tour guide.
Gu Jiang was just about to pick up the gold post in his hand, when a man with a big belly and a poop merchant who was about forty years old next to him hurriedly came over and looked at the invitation in Gu Jiang's hand with curiosity on his face.
"Little brother, you can't be a golden post, right?"
Gu Jiang nodded and said, "It's Jin Ti, what's wrong?"
As he spoke, he spread out the invitation and showed it to the man.
Surprise flashed in the other party's eyes, and he hurriedly grabbed Gu Jiang and said, "Take me in, you have several people, and you are not one of them!"
Gu Jiang didn't refuse immediately, his eyes rolled around. What the man said was right, but the other party didn't know that Gu Jiang was not a few people here, but still a hundred and ten people.
Since the number one hundred and ten people have brought it, he is not one of them.
"I can take you in, a hundred fire spirit stones!"
When he said the price, Gu Jiang was obviously a little hesitant, so that the lion opened his mouth, he mustered up a lot of courage, but if he didn't get it, he would be scolded by the other party.
Unexpectedly, instead of being angry, the merchant seemed extremely excited, and immediately nodded in agreement: "Okay! Great, I'll give it to you." ”
As he spoke, he hurriedly took a large bag of spirit stones and stuffed them into Gu Jiang's hands.
Now it's Gu Jiang's turn to be confused, is this business so easy to do?
Calling Sun Xiaoyi over, after the two of them had been for a long time, Sun Xiaoyi ran to the crowd and raised the golden post in his hand, shouting at the top of his voice: "If you want to enter the Hou Mansion, follow me, one hundred spirit stones!"
In the blink of an eye, there were more than a hundred and ten people around Sun Xiaoyi and Gu Jiang, Gu Jiang hurriedly beckoned everyone to the side, the fat girl collected the spirit stone, and Sun Xiaoyi counted the number of people.
The businessman before looked at Gu Jiang with some confusion and asked, "Little brother, seeing that your identity should be unusual, what kind of congratulatory gifts did you bring to the banquet this time, can you open my eyes?"
