"Mr. Yang, I want to marry Gu's daughter!"
After leaving Gu's Wubao, Chen Duan also returned with a full load.
There were several more carriages in his queue.
In the compartments of the carriage, some were piled with precious medicines for treating miasma poisons, while others were filled with grain and salt.
Gu Qingcheng absolutely showed the greatest sincerity——
The Gu family was able to establish a foothold in Lingnan without fear of the terrible miasma, relying on "special medicine".
Now, Gu Qingcheng did not hide anything, but gave the medicine to her hero and her god.
Chen Duan, whose heart had become as cold as steel after years of fighting, was severely touched.
The more people pay attention to interests, the more they understand the value of "interests".
If Gu Qingcheng was a little woman who only knew love, Chen Duan would not cherish her efforts no matter how valuable they were.
Because this is her nature, no matter who she is with, as long as love comes to her mind, she will do it stupidly.
Gu Qingcheng is not a lover.
She is ambitious and capable, not a little white rabbit, but a little fox.
She is cunning by nature, but she is willing to reveal her soft belly to herself——
How could Chen Duan not be moved?
In the past, he wanted to marry a girl from an aristocratic family with suitable conditions for profit.
But now, his interest in the Sanniang of the Gu family is mixed with a trace of sincerity.
Yang Wei was sitting in the carriage, holding a feather fan very pretentiously.
Well, it’s not all pretentious.
Feather fans can not only fan the wind, but also drive away mosquitoes.
In Lingnan, mosquitoes are inescapable.
Shaking the feather fan lightly, Yang Wei took a deep look at Chen Duan, "My lord, have you decided?"
If it was just for profit, marrying a daughter of the Gu family would definitely be the best choice.
However, Yang Wei was afraid that the prince was not just for profit.
The God of War does not have an ordinary heart, but once he is tempted, the consequences will be very terrible.
"...Sir, do you think Mr. Gu is not suitable?"
Chen Duan tilted his head unnaturally and avoided Yang Wei's gaze.
He didn't know whether he wanted to remind Yang Wei or convince himself, so he asked.
"It's appropriate! The Gu family comes from a famous family, and both his ancestors and father are outstanding figures in the world."
"Ms. Gu herself is talented, beautiful, and tough-minded. She is a rare mistress!"
It’s not that Gu’s is bad, it’s that he’s great!
It's so good that Yang Wei is worried that his master can't keep his heart and will perish for the Gu family in the future!
"Since it's suitable, then ask for marriage!"
Chen Duan was not aware of the "crisis" yet. He looked in the direction of Gu's Wubao and said firmly.
Yang Wei: ...Haha, you are so arbitrary and you are still pretending to ask me what I am doing?
…
Gu Qingcheng saw Chen Duan off, but was not in a hurry to leave.
She wants to make arrangements for the Linyuan Department. In addition, there is also some cooperation from Chen's side.
Gu Qingcheng stayed in Yuezhou for another month to settle everything before setting off back to Luozhou.
After entering Wubao, Gu Qingcheng went straight to Gu Heng's study.
"Aweng, I want to be engaged to Chen Duan!"
puff!
In his life, Gu Heng rarely behaved like spitting tea.
However, at this moment, after listening to his little granddaughter's words, he still spit out a mouthful of tea soup.
Gu Qingcheng stretched out her hand helplessly and handed her grandfather a handkerchief.
Gu Heng quickly took the handkerchief and wiped it on his face and front.
"Aqing, what did you just say?"
Could it be that there was too much pepper in today's tea soup, and my ears were hearing hallucinations when I sneezed?
"Aweng, I want to marry the Chen family!"
Gu Qingcheng repeated it obediently.
Gu Heng: ...There are no auditory hallucinations!
He subconsciously wanted to reach out.
Gu Qingcheng had a delicate little face, raised her hand, and blocked her grandfather's hand from reaching towards her forehead, "Aweng, I don't have a fever!"
Why are you talking nonsense when you don't have a fever?
Chen Duan!
Not to mention that he is a humble martial artist, not to mention that the Chen family has usurped the Xiao family, not to mention that he is an old widower in his twenties...
She is just her own granddaughter, but she is a person with great ambitions.
The Gu family almost devoted all their efforts to help her, just so that she could become the world leader in the future.
As a result, Gu Qing went to Guangcheng and when she came back, she said she wanted to get married!
Marry?
She is not getting married, she is clearly handing over the huge world to Chen Duan.
Make wedding clothes for others!
Could it be that Aqing was also infected by Gu Youyi?
Become a stupid woman who only cares about men?
Gu Qingcheng glanced at his grandfather who was shocked, but did not speak in a hurry.
She picked up the teapot and got herself a cup of tea.
Well, the tea soup combines many flavors and is very addictive as soon as you smell it.
Gu Qingcheng took a sip and praised: "Good tea soup!"
Gu Heng: ...when did this happen?
You girl still have time to drink tea?
The words are so shocking that they almost scare your grandfather, okay? !
"Aqing!!" Gu Heng was so angry that his granddaughter blew his beard!
Gu Qingcheng put down the tea cup, looked at his grandfather intently, and suddenly smiled.
The pink little girl has a smile as bright and delicate as a spring flower.
"Aweng, you see, even you think that I am a 'girl to the outside world' and can 'make wedding clothes for others', let alone outsiders?"
And Chen Duan is also among the "outsiders".
Worldly prejudices may not be able to help you sometimes!
Gu Qingcheng's smile was sweet, but his eyes were so calm that it was shocking.
Gu Heng looked into Gu Qingcheng's eyes. Suddenly, he thought of something and coughed violently.
"Aqing! You! You!"
This city, this scheming... He is simply a born politician who takes care of his mother.
Use everything available just to achieve your own goals.
"Ah Weng, Chen Duan is willing to give you 500 sets of armor and 500 horses as a betrothal gift."
"And I also gave him one-third of the dividends from the salt farm as a dowry."
"In addition, if the war in Jiaozhou, Huangzhou and other places is not going well, Chen Duan is also willing to 'borrow' troops to me."
Of course, the soldiers were all borrowed. As a general, it was normal for Chen Duan to help fight the battle.
Gu Qingcheng just showed his "sincerity" and gave some benefits, and then he got the right to use 20,000 elite soldiers.
Gu Qingcheng feels that his "marriage" is very worthwhile!
Gu Heng: ...I seem to have seen several famous Liu emperors in history take advantage of marriage (relying on women) to the extreme!
Waving his hand, Gu Heng said "I don't care" and let his little granddaughter do what she wants!
In addition to cooperating with Chen Duan, Gu Qingcheng conquered Huangzhou, Jiaozhou and other places in one fell swoop. He also did not forget his bet with the Huang family.
With half a month left before the one-year gambling period, Gu Qingcheng's treasure ship was successfully completed.
Huang Yannian: ...I am willing to admit defeat!
Furthermore, the Huang family did not really "lose". Not only did they receive dividends from the salt farm, they also cooperated with the Gu family in the shipyard.
Gu's daughter has Prince Liang behind her.
The Gu family's position in Lingnan became more and more stable. The Huang family realized it, and other local wealthy families also responded and allied with the Gu family.
Gu Qingcheng not only expanded his territory, but also received more help.
Huoshui: "Your Majesty, half a year has passed and you don't want to do a mission?"
Gu Qingcheng nodded graciously, "Okay, for your sake, let's do another mission!"
