Chapter 243: Jade Lock
After sending Lu Junyi away, Gu Ye inspected the various factories of the distillery, and was quite satisfied with the stewards and employees that his grandfather had found. Two catties of grain wine, steaming out one catty of five grains, the wine yield is good. Ordinary grain wine on the market, a good one or two silver and a jar, about ten catties. Like the Lu family, who is not well-known, 500 to 800 Wen a jar, the profit is extremely low.
The distillery took wine from the Lu family, and the cost of one jar of eight hundred wen and one jar of five grains was one tael or six dollars of silver. With her family's steaming process, Dongling Kingdom can not find a second one. Rare things are expensive, a jar of ten catties and ten taels of silver, shouldn't it be expensive?
Gu Xiao listened to it and thought it was true: "That floating spring wine, but it occupies the name of the imperial merchant, and the taste is not as good as our wine." The floating spring on the market, a pound costs dozens of taels of silver, and our price is close enough to the people! The word "close to the people" was something he heard his granddaughter say.
"Girl, Ling Gongzi is outside, saying that he has a business to discuss with the girl." Hua Hao hurried from outside and gave a salute, his voice soft and polite.
Gu Ye suddenly felt happy in her heart, great, Brother Chen was finally busy, she hadn't seen Brother Chen for several days. It's an exaggeration to say that I don't see him for a day, but I really miss him.
Gu Xiao snorted angrily and said, "The winery belongs to Lao Tzu!" If you want to talk about business with Lao Tzu, this little white face, the drunkard doesn't mean to drink! I chased it to the winery, it's not like words! With that, he took the lead and strode towards the outside of the factory.
Halfway through, the steward of the distillery asked him for something and said that there was a small problem in a certain factory and asked him to solve it. Gu Xiao frowned, with the degree of importance he attached to the winery, many seemingly small things, he did it himself, and this matter had to be dealt with by him.
"Ye'er, you go over first, wait for grandpa to deal with things over there, and then meet that kid!" Gu Xiao hesitated for a moment, and didn't forget to advise, "Take your two maids with you, so as not to fall into the mouth." A girl's reputation is especially important, and you are getting older...... In two days, the nurturing grandma I found for you will come, and when the time comes, you can study hard! ”
Gu Ye's originally stretched eyebrows and eyes were shocked to hear this "bad news", and immediately turned into a little bitter melon: "The matter of raising grandma, don't be in a hurry...... I'm too busy right now, where do I have time to learn those ......"
"If you don't have time, you have to find time to learn! Busy? Busy and still have time to meet with the surname Ling? Gu Xiao pretended not to see his granddaughter's sad face, and hardened his heart.
Gu Ye argued: "What's the matter, he is my injury, and he has not recovered, so his granddaughter naturally has to be responsible for him......
"Wounded? Whose injuries dragged on for four or five months and still didn't heal? I look at that little white face, I have ulterior motives for you, so I won't leave. Stay away from him in the future! A good-looking man, unreliable! Gu Xiao glared at his granddaughter and turned to leave.
Gu Ye pouted, came to the living room in the outer courtyard of the winery, and stared at Ling Juechen's handsome and dusty, mortal face for a long time.
Ling Juechen's face was full of confusion, and he asked softly, "What's wrong?" Why are you looking at me like that? ”
"My grandfather said that a man who is too handsome is unreliable!" Gu Ye sighed faintly. Indeed, this face is too good to attract bees and butterflies, and when he came to the pharmaceutical factory, there were many female workers who secretly looked at him with red faces. Walking on the street, there was also a bold little girl who deliberately dropped a veil in front of him. However, Brother Chen turned a blind eye to all this. Gu Ye's heart was sweet.
Ling Juechen couldn't cry or laugh: "Could it be that being good-looking is also a kind of fault?" I don't want to look like this...... Otherwise, I'll scratch my face to reassure my grandfather. ”
"No way!" Gu Ye exclaimed nervously, "That'...... How it hurts! I don't allow you to hurt yourself! When he said this, Gu Ye was holding Ling Juechen's handsome face, and his thumb was still rubbing restlessly on his face.
Ling Juechen's follower Dapeng had eyes as big as a bull's eye. Oh, my God! Miss Gu is taking advantage of his general? It's terrifying! But the general still indulged her actions and enjoyed it! The relationship between the two is good, and he is relieved......
Pretending to look at the sky, the earth, and counting the full moon of ants, he found Dapeng's uninteresting eyes, and glared at him fiercely - don't look at it, do you understand?
Dapeng noticed a "hot" gaze, looked in his direction, and hurriedly looked over. found that the personal maid of the future housewife was squeezing her eyebrows at him. He was overjoyed, could it be that this handsome little girl, impressed by her own masculine charm, fell under his military boots? He quickly straightened his clothes, pulled his hair, made an expression that he thought was the most handsome, and raised his eyebrows at the little girl.
The full moon is about to vomit. There's nothing wrong with this man! Why did Dianzun choose such an unobtrusive follower, and he was not afraid of losing his people!
At this time, Gu Ye and Ling Jiechen were standing and sitting. The delicate little girl who was standing gently held the face of the tall and handsome man who was sitting, and the atmosphere between them was so harmonious that there was some ambiguity. If it is drawn as a caricature, there must be flowers around the two of them......
Just as the two of them were staring at each other for a long time, suddenly a jade pendant slipped from Gu Ye's clothes and gently hit Ling Juechen's upright nose.
"What is this?" Ling Juechen pinched the lock-shaped jade pendant and looked at it carefully. The jade is delicate, and there is hardly a single flaw to be found, as if it is congealed. This is the top grade mutton fat warm jade, which is worth a lot of money. With his understanding of the little girl, she would not take the initiative to spend a lot of money to buy such a pendant. Don't...... Who sent her?
"This is a longevity lock, and my mother left it to me, saying that it would be given to me as a dowry in the future." In two lifetimes, Gu Ye, who has never experienced the love of his parents, found a loving mother with deep love for her daughter from this jade lock.
Ordinary people, with such a good jade, will leave it to their son as an heirloom, but her mother specially stated that this was left to her, and she had no brother's share. Gu Ye has never liked to wear jewelry on her hands and neck, but she has always carried this jade lock close to her. With it, it seems to make up for her longing and extravagant desire for father's love and mother's love.
Ling Juechen was suspicious: "Can I take a look?" ”
Gu Ye did not doubt him, took off the jade lock from his neck, and sent it to his hand: "This should be the most valuable thing that my mother left to me and my brother, and there are some bracelets and hairpins, although they are not valuable, they are kept as thoughts." I've almost forgotten what my mother looks like, isn't it too unfilial? ”
"When your mother died, you were young! You think of her all the time in your heart, even if you don't remember what she looks like, but your thoughts and love for her have always existed. How can it be considered unfilial? Ling Jiechen sensed the melancholy in her heart and busily comforted her.
