I just received Mu Qiang's flying letter, and I was very excited and anxious, because he thought that this would be one step closer to the goal.

He was about to rush back to pack his things, but the boss asked him for something.

"You saw You Ji last night, didn't you?" In the hall, Boss You set out tea and asked Gu Huai while drinking.

You Ji is naturally Miss You's name.

"Ah...... Yes. Gu Huai's heart tightened, and he also took a sip of tea, and explained, "I saw him when I was in the stone carving competition. ”

He was worried, could it be that the boss came to trouble him?

But this matter has nothing to do with him, he just doesn't know where the wind is late......

"Is this a dereliction of duty on the part of the Wind Guard?" Boss You stared at Gu Huai with his eyes fixed on him when he said this, obviously wanting to see what he had to say.

Gu Huai originally wanted to tell the details, for example, he saw the guards enter Miss You's room, but after thinking about it, wouldn't it be a sale to someone if he said that, so he shook his head and said:

"Boss You, I don't know about this. ”

You Qiu waited for Gu Huai to finish speaking, and stared at him for a moment, seeing that his color had not changed, he also nodded lightly, showing a look of satisfaction on his face.

At this time, Boss You didn't say much about Yufeng, as if he was not surprised.

He changed the subject and asked:

"I also heard that you saved my daughter, but is there such a thing?"

"Huh?" Gu Huai was a little surprised, touched his head and said, "She even told you this?"

You Qiu nodded and said:

"It is needless to say that you have done good deeds with others, but you must say what you have done with me. ”

When Gu Huai heard this, he felt that it made sense.

Why can't you be named if you do good deeds?

"That one named Changqing is too dangerous, and he happened to be met by the eldest lady again......" he said to You Qiu.

Speaking of this, Gu Huai still had palpitations. That Wei Changqing was still hiding at the beginning, and he was late to fight with the opponent, and he made a vicious move, which made people afraid for a while.

You Qiu waved his hand, and didn't let Gu Huai continue, just took out a small bag made of brocade silk from his robe and handed it to Gu Huai:

"Here are ten taels of gold, as a thanks. Moreover, I know that you signed a delayed purchase deed with Wang Mazi, and it will inevitably be a little consumed when you find guests in the future. ”

Since Gu Huai received ten taels of gold from Liu Changgui, he has also been unceremonious in this regard.

What's more, he still owes a lot of money to the outside.

"Did my uncompetitive daughter tell you something?" asked Gu Huai.

"Your daughter also says you're not a simple businessman. Gu Huaiyi was so happy that he almost relayed all of You Ji's words, and suddenly thought that there would be a problem with saying this, so he immediately stopped his mouth.

"Oh, what do you mean by that?" You Qiu squinted at Gu Huai.

"Oh, oh, she said your business is doing a lot. In a hurry, Gu Huai's eyes rolled and said.

You Qiu, the old Jianghu, should be able to see Gu Huai's thoughts, but he didn't break it, sighed and said:

"Hey...... No matter how big the business is, you have to be able to survive. This Shakun City looks more and more unpeaceful. ”

That tone is somewhat similar to Liu Changgui, but it has a little more powerlessness.

Does the so-called survival refer to the life of the family, or the store of Youqiu?

Or both?

"You don't have to worry too much, the shopkeeper. Gu Huai said, "Shakun City should have already made some moves. ”

"You said Liu Zhutou?" You Qiu snorted and sneered and asked, "Didn't he himself get seriously injured last night?"

Gu Huai was speechless for a while, and he didn't know how to respond.

He originally wanted to tell Shopkeeper You that the Yamen was also doing things during this time, so that he could rest assured, after all, Wei Changqing was coming for You Ji at that time. didn't expect that Shopkeeper You even knew about Liu Changgui's recruitment.

He guessed that You Qiu must be going to talk about Mu Yuan next.

But I saw Boss You take a sip of tea, and then stared straight at Gu Huai and asked:

"What do you think of my daughter?"

This question came so suddenly, it made Gu Huai choke a little of the tea he had just drunk in his mouth.

Could it be that this Boss You still wants to be a matchmaker for himself?

He wiped his mouth and said:

"Your daughter......? She's nice, smart and empathetic......"

"Okay, okay," You Qiu waved his hand, "I still know what my daughter looks like as a father." However, it can be seen that she still trusts you more. ”

"That'...... Then thank you for the trust of the eldest lady. Gu Huaizuo said, begging his father to tell his grandmother, this boss You must not be a matchmaker for himself.

Although he didn't hate You Ji, and even liked it a little, he knew that Miss You was thinking about Mu Yuan all day long.

If Boss You wants to be this matchmaker, it's no wonder that things aren't getting more and more complicated!

You Qiu nodded with satisfaction, put down the teacup, wiped his mouth with silk, saw the small scroll of letter paper in Gu Huai's hand, and asked:

"Where are you going next?"

"Shopkeeper, I'll go to the boss of Shenmu Fangmu. Gu Huai replied, "We met in the Quicksand Islands before, and I ordered something from him. ”

"Mu Qiang, old man Mu......" After You Qiu heard Mu Qiang's name, he lowered his head and muttered, "That's right, you should be looking for him to make woodwork......"

The expression on his face was also much more gloomy, as if he was worried about something.

After a moment, he raised his head and said to Gu Huai:

"Then let Yuki follow you from now on. Shakun City is so big, it's time for her to see it. ”

"This!" Gu Huai was stunned, instinctively waved his hand, and said, "I'm a civilian, I don't know any kung fu spells, I'm afraid there will be some mistakes, Boss You!"

What he didn't expect was that the outside world was getting more and more chaotic, and Boss You not only did not strengthen control, but also released his daughter.

"It's okay," You Qiu also waved his hand, "Yufeng will be with you, too." Besides, if something really goes wrong, I don't blame you!"

The boss had already said this, and Gu Huai felt that he had no choice, so he had to clench his fists and say:

"Since the boss trusts him so much, the little one must do his best to protect the safety of the eldest lady. ”

When Gu Huai said this, even he felt funny. Just now he said that he had no martial arts, but now he swears.

"It's such a mess outside, your father really wants to open it!" Before leaving, Gu Huai said to You Ji while loading the harness.

In fact, he was also a little unhappy in his heart. If you say that this Miss You has no heart, then she has a beautiful woman to accompany her when she does things, and she is happy. However, people have been thinking about another man in their hearts, Gu Huai is so busy, isn't he still making a wedding dress for someone else?

"Miss, after last night, I'm afraid that it will be much more dangerous in this Shakun City than before, so you better stay at home, right?" Tai Lai persuaded on the side.

Where would Miss You listen, and without saying a word, she stepped on the small snail.

The carriage of the small snail was a little crowded. On weekdays, I can only do two people, but now I have four of them.

No matter how you sit in the wind, you will be very close to Miss You.

As long as he is close to Yuki, he will show some discomfort.

You Ji didn't care, looking at the world outside the car window, and asked Gu Huai and Tai Lai this and that.

At this time, Gu Huai also wanted to ask You Ji what kind of business his father would do, but seeing that the wind was late, he always felt a little difficult to speak.

After nearly two and a half hours, I arrived at Shenmufang.

"Little brother Gu Huai, why are you here now?" The wooden shopkeeper waited outside the store early in the morning, his face full of anxiety.

"Wooden shopkeeper, this is the money I borrowed from you last time. As soon as Gu Huai got out of the car, he handed two taels of gold to Mu Qiang. He thought that the things he wanted were only a few dozen taels of silver, and it would be troublesome to get change when the time came, so he returned the money first.

Moreover, it may be that he was born in a wealthy family, and he doesn't like to owe people things until he has to. If you owe it, you will pay it back as soon as possible.

The wooden shopkeeper didn't say anything after taking the gold, and invited Gu Huai and his party into the store.

Shenmu Fang is very large, and it is built by three floors of huge barrel-shaped workshops nested together.

The outer layer is mainly used to make parts, and the finished things are transported to the middle floor workshop through the passage between the two floors, and then assembled into finished products and shipped to customers.

The inner rooms have both halls and storerooms. The hall is used to receive guests, while the storeroom is used for storing and displaying finished products.

Gu Huai could see that the construction concept of the entire Shenmufang had very reasonable considerations.

For example, the number of parts and the type of finished products are more, so the space to be used is bound to be more, so the outer layer is used to make the parts, and the inner layer is used to assemble.

Because the number of visitors is never as large as the objects, and the finished products used for display are only a smaller part, the inner floor is set up as a hall and a showroom with a smaller storage function, or a small storeroom with a display function.

Mu Qiang led everyone to the hall, and along the way, there were knocking and cutting sounds around from time to time, and occasionally there were bursts of wood fragrance.

Walking to a wall, Mu Qiang stopped.

The wall, except for a statue of Pixiu next to it, is nothing special.

Ran Gu Huai and Tai Lai glanced at each other, knowing that there must be a hidden mystery in this wall.

"Boss Mu," Yuki couldn't help but ask, "where is this taking us?"

Mu Qiang turned his head, looked at You Ji, put a finger to his mouth, and said:

"Little sister, you'll know right away. ”

You Ji was called her little sister in public, and her face turned red as soon as she brushed it.

Mu Qiang pressed the Pixiu's head with his hand, and then the wall began to change a little.

The lines of the earthy sand bricks began to fade, and a door appeared.

A dark room.

"Just buy a few dozen taels of things, can you use it so much?" Gu Huai wondered in his heart.

The layout of the darkroom doesn't have much to offer, and it looks like it's used for receiving guests at most.

When I closed the secret door, I could hear the sound of a waterfall outside, and then it was very quiet after a while.

"Mana field. After Feng Xiangchi finished speaking, he clasped his hands in front of his chest and stood at the entrance, worthy of being an experienced high-level guard.

Not only is it a dark room, but it is also in a mana field, and the inside and outside are incomprehensible, what makes Boss Mu so cautious?
