Yanzhou, Tingyi Lane, Gufu.

Gu Siyun held a foot-long light yellow boat in his left hand, and held a pair of fire in his right hand to the boat, sitting in the study and looking at it carefully.

This is an ivory ship transported from the Western Regions Domain, hollowed out from it, carved twelve people, three horses, seven oxen, six dogs, and also carved out carpets, silver bottles, tables and chairs, felt, grapes, pomegranates and other messy things, people wear Hu clothes, some wear the regular clothes of the Great Jin Dynasty, and some show their breasts, looking both delicate and strange.

This object is strange and strange in a rare word, if it is sold in the capital, the price of the end is more than a thousand gold.

This was originally specially found to give a birthday gift to an official in Yanzhou City, but later Yanzhou City was destroyed, and that person also gave his life, and the things were collected in the warehouse.

Except for this ivory boat, the fire Qi in Gu Siyun's hand is not ordinary.

Huoqi itself is expensive, not a rich and noble family, and it can't be used, especially this one is also inlaid with gemstones, tortoiseshell, and made of gold and silver filaments into a handle, and the glass mirror on the head is even more translucent and bright, used to see, and illuminates things big and clear under it, which is many times more powerful than ordinary Huoqi.

Gu Siyun studied the boat for a long time, it was delicious, and from time to time he took two sips of the fruit syrup drink on the table, humming a small tune in his mouth, so beautiful that he almost didn't go to heaven.

He was still enjoying himself, when he suddenly heard a chaotic sound of footsteps outside, and then a small servant leaned in at the door and whispered, "Young master, the master is here!" Hurry up and pack up! ”

Gu Siyun was so frightened that he almost stumbled, the fire in his hand was just that, after all, it was not big, just put it together, but the ivory boat was a foot long, but it was very difficult to hide, in a hurry, he had to fold it under the robe, clamped it with his legs, hurriedly adjusted his clothes, moved the books and articles on the table, dipped the pen in ink, copied and wrote on the paper, and made a serious study.

He had just set up his posture, and before he could even write a few more words, he heard the footsteps coming from far and near, and stopped in front of him.

Gu Siyun pretended to be obsessed with going to school, and only then did he raise his head, see the person in front of him, shouted "Dad" in surprise, put down the pen in his hand, and stood up and saluted.

Before he could stand up straight, he sensed something was wrong.

- The ivory boat between his legs couldn't stand his tossing like this, and his legs kept going, and he was about to fall!

He saluted awkwardly, not wanting to ask him to sit down and continue his studies, as he had done before, but approached, picked up the page on which a few words had been written on his desk, picked up the book again, and asked, "What about the article you were asked to do last time?" ”

Gu Siyun secretly screamed "fatal" in his heart, and hurriedly ordered the scholar who came in behind: "Take the article I made two days ago." ”

The scholar froze for a moment.

Isn't the young master enjoying those few new things these days, where are you doing any articles?

He was stunned.

Gu Siyun didn't dare to make any expression in front of his father, so he had to say sternly: "I asked you to put it away the day before yesterday, where did you put it?" Don't take it out yet! ”

The scholar was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and said, "The villain is so busy that he accidentally forgot where to put it!" ”

Gu Siyun glared at him and scolded: "There is not enough success, and there are more failures!" Don't go find it out yet! ”

He turned to the person in front of him and said, "Dad, the next person can't use it, why don't you wait for him to find it and send it to you?" ”

Gu Ming stood at the table and looked at Gu Siyun without saying a word.

If it weren't for the fact that there was only one species left......

He glanced coldly at his son, and the complicated look in his eyes flashed.

If you suffer a loss, you will suffer because you have a poor background, if you suffer because the eldest woman is not married, and if you suffer a loss, you will suffer because you don't have one more son to choose.

Gu Ming's family was very poor when he was young, and by virtue of his kinship, he went to vote for a brother in the clan, because he was very clever, willing to endure hardships, and willing to learn more, and won the respect of the other party, and then gradually occupied a place under his portal.

About more than ten years ago, the Gu family business he invested in became bigger and bigger, and I don't know how that clan brother did it, and he actually opened up business lines with several vassal countries in the Western Regions.

The red fire jade the size of a quail egg, the blue and blue gemstones, the thick and dense wool blankets, the silverware of different shapes, the frankincense of all colors, the rose incense dew, and the tobacco of the Western Regions, as long as they are shipped back, there is nothing that cannot be sold for a large price.

In his heyday, he and eight or nine of his clansmen were engaged in eight such trade lines, and the silver was not regarded as silver at all, but only as stone. He still remembers that when he went to the business line in the first year, he saw that the goods shipped back were sold at such a price, and the whole person was about to faint, and he really had never seen so much silver in his life.

Later, I don't know what kind of considerations the clan brother had, he cut off a few of the most profitable ones, leaving only three or four ordinary routes, and went back every two years, although he still made a lot of money, but it was no longer like before, and he deliberately pulled a few officials and relatives in Yanzhou City into the gang, and every time he went out in vain.

He was young at the time, and he didn't know what this reason, and for a while he laughed at the other party's older and less courageous he became.

How can anyone think that there is more silver!

But it wasn't until he himself was sitting in this position now that he faintly understood what the other party was doing.

There's a lot of silver, it's really hot......

But if you have some wealth, none of the officials and officials in the city do not stare at you, and you have to take care of it up and down.

Sure enough, there are no officials in the DPRK and China, and it is not easy to do business outside.

No wonder they all say that they are rich for three generations, and they also say that they want to pass on poems and books.

If there is silver, if the yamen hooks his fingers a few times, you will have to break your muscles and bones, but if there are people in the family who can read, even one of them has the right to do it, it is simply a convenient door for any place.

Thinking of this, Gu Ming was even more annoyed.

Gu Qingluan's five sons, except for the youngest one who refused to study, stupidly insisted on practicing martial arts, and the rest didn't want him to the slightest snack, and he was very provocative.

How did you get to yourself, so you don't feel at ease?!

Gu Ming pinched the book of "Analects" on his son's desk, and was almost angry.

He grew up in a poor family, and he really didn't have the opportunity to study, but he later followed Gu Qingluan, in order to let him settle accounts and manage things, so he got the show invited by the other party to enlighten a few of them in their twenties.
