When Gu Beichuan heard this, he was speechless for a while, but the person in front of him was his cheap dad, so he could only explain patiently: "Dad, I am the master of Feihong. What does it mean that I have become the master of Feihong?"
"You mean, Feihong was founded by you alone?"
"You can't say that. Some of it is due to you, dad."
When Gu Jun heard this, he suddenly became excited and said: "My credit? Could it be that my business experience in teaching you by words and deeds played a role? This allowed you to build a business across the Jianghuai County in just a few months. Huge enterprise?”
"Um, no. To be precise, Dad, you left me a good wine shop, which is the capital of my fortune." Gu Beichuan didn't want to hurt his father's self-confidence, so he could only choose his words as carefully as possible.
However, who would have thought that when Gu Jun heard this, his face immediately drooped, and he said in a faint tone: "That shop was left to you by your mother, and it has nothing to do with me..."
Gu Beichuan: "..."
The atmosphere fell into an awkward silence for a while.
But soon Gu Jun adjusted his state and said excitedly: "It is said that you are very famous in the Huainan literary world? You have also taught many Jinshi?"
"It does happen."
"Not only that, he even taught me the number one scholar." Gu Xingwen also walked over, with an inexplicable bitterness in his tone.
"Okay! That's great! Then when will you come home with me so that you can inherit the family business?" Gu Jun said.
When Gu Beichuan heard this, he became awkward and said, "Dad, how about you and Second Aunt get another one?"
When Gu Jun heard this, his old face turned red and he scolded: "How are you talking? Have you learned how to joke with dad?"
"How can I do that kind of thing again at my age?"
"No, dad, do you think it's necessary for me to inherit the family business?"
Hearing this, Gu Jun's mouth twitched twice, and he felt a little helpless.
Over the past few months, he had worked hard to preserve the inheritance passed down from his ancestors so that he could pass it on to this unworthy son.
But who would have thought... Now this unfilial son has no regard for the inheritance of his ancestors.
The key...he still has the capital!
Who can I talk to to explain this?
"Then are you going to annex all the remaining cloth merchants in Jiangnan?"
"If necessary, my father is somewhat famous in the Jiangnan cloth business community, so he can come forward for you."
"Then I'll help you, father."
Hearing this, Gu Jun finally felt comfortable.
Look, Feihong’s big boss, the famous Huainan Shijun, doesn’t he have to ask his father for help?
"By the way, after the New Year, you will be nine out of ten. Do you have a girl you like?"
When Gu Beichuan heard this, Xiang Zhirou's appearance appeared in his mind involuntarily, and he did not shirk it, but nodded generously and said, "Maybe there is."
"Which girl is it? In the past, you were uneducated and I was worried about your life-long event all day long. Now, with your reputation, you are more than enough to match any girl from any house."
"Hurry up and tell your father, and I will come to propose marriage for you one day."
As a Dagan man, you still have to pay attention to the orders of your parents and the words of your matchmaker.
However, Gu Jun was relatively open-minded and did not arrange a marriage for Gu Beichuan, but let him do it himself.
"The only daughter of the King of Zhenbei, Princess of Anyang."
boom!
As soon as these words came out, they fell on Gu Jun's heart like a bolt from the blue.
He staggered in his steps and almost lost his balance.
Gu Xingwen also had his pupils contracted and his eyes dilated, his face full of disbelief.
"Who... who?"
"The only daughter of the King of Zhenbei, Princess Anyang." Gu Beichuan had no choice but to say it again.
"You...you want to marry the daughter of King Zhenbei?" Previously Qian Tong and others thought that Gu Jun was suffering from heart failure, but now Gu Jun felt that Gu Beichuan was the one suffering from heart failure.
What family?
You can say this!
The only daughter of the King of Zhenbei, could an ordinary family marry her?
Not to mention that our family is just a family of merchants, even if it is a family of scholar-bureaucrats, or even a descendant of the fourth generation of the Yang family, we would not dare to say that we can be worthy of Princess Anyang!
"Son, we won't talk nonsense."
"Which family's daughter have you fallen in love with? Dad will come to propose marriage for you tomorrow. As for the matter of Princess Anyang, don't mention it again."
"This person is far away in Northern Xinjiang, and I can't even get along with you. How can you fall in love with me?"
"Dad, what I said is true." Gu Beichuan became increasingly helpless.
"It's true, son, if your father said something wrong to you, have you been a little distracted recently? Do you feel that you have become successful and capable, so no one takes it seriously?"
"That is Princess Anyang! The only daughter of the King of Zhenbei! In the whole world, I am afraid that only the most noble princes of the royal family can match her!"
"We are from ordinary merchant backgrounds, so marrying a well-educated and sensible woman is enough. Don't go too far."
Gu Beichuan, who had been told a lot, was helpless and simply kept silent.
On the contrary, Gu Xingwen froze on the spot. After thinking carefully, he suddenly realized: "Dad! What brother said seems to be true!"
"Huh? Erlang, dad is discussing marriage with your brother, why do you come out to cause trouble?"
"No, Dad, when I was in Qiandu, I heard someone say that Princess Anyang has been living in Prince Jing's Mansion in Huainan for the past three years."
"Besides, my brother is not a liar, so this matter is most likely true."
boom!
As soon as he said this, Gu Jun froze in place as if he was hit by thunder falling from the sky.
Then a huge surprise surged out of his heart like a wave, completely engulfing him.
After a long time, he calmed down, but he still murmured: "Princess Anyang, my son wants to marry Princess Anyang."
"Blessed by our ancestors! Really blessed by our ancestors!"
"Old Li is right. The ancestral graves of my old Li family are really well buried!"
"Otherwise, we won't be able to produce two unicorns in a row."
"If you marry the princess, Beichuan, you... won't you be the princess of the county from now on?"
"My Gu family can be considered a semi-honorable family?"
After the ecstasy passed in his mind, there were still lingering aftereffects, which made Gu Jun have endless aftertaste.
Seeing his state, Gu Beichuan couldn't bear to tell him that the King of Zhenbei was suspected by the court, which led to Xiang Zhirou being taken to Qiandu overnight as a hostage.
He had no choice but to say: "Dad, don't think like that, you haven't even written your horoscope yet."
"Hey, what did you say? Don't we have to deal with this kind of thing in a pinch?"
"Anyway, Dad is not in a hurry. You take your time."
"By the way, I heard that Member Shen said that you are going to Gandu in a few days? But to see Princess Anyang?"
"Of course, yes. After I leave, my father will have to take care of Feihong's business."
"Uncle Fu has helped me a lot these days, and I am already old and it is inconvenient for me to travel around and work hard."
"I plan to keep him in Huainan to help my father."
When Uncle Fu heard this, he immediately stood up, bowed and said, "Master."
"Afu, I haven't seen you for a while, and you are much healthier." After greeting Gu Jun, he patted his chest and said to Gu Beichuan, "Don't worry, I will take care of Feihong's business for you. It's just that You have to bring Princess Anyang back early, as your father is old after all, and he should be a grandfather."
When Gu Beichuan heard this, he was stunned and could only smile bitterly.
