After retiring the engagement, she actually married the emperor's uncle in a wedding dress

Chapter 39
The carriage arrived at Zhouji Cloth Village, and Gu Qingluo got off the carriage.

Zhou Ji Buzhuang used to be one of the top five old cloth villages in the capital, but it was burned down before she was reborn. Now only the ruins of the workshop and two storefronts remain, and they can't even drink rice soup.

The business of several generations of the poor Zhou family was destroyed by a fire.Only Zhou Ke, the youngest son of the Zhou family, and his old mother were left to stay here.

In her previous life, she was not interested in making money, so He Qinlan left the cloth village and made a lot of money to support Mu Jinchen.

He Qinlan is dead in this life, so she should have no rivals, right?

"Girl, we're here." Cui'er helped Gu Qingluo get out of the car.

The once bustling Zhouji Cloth Village is now deserted.The boss, Zhou Ke, was alone in the store with a sad face.

"Master Zhou." Gu Qingluo walked in and looked around.

In the empty storefront, there are only a few outdated old cloths, and there are no customers.

Zhou Ke looked up at her, then lowered his head and continued to shut himself up: "The shop is bankrupt, girl, please look elsewhere!"

"Shopkeeper Zhou, there must be a lot of people looking for your shop these days, right?" Gu Qingluo took a seat by herself, ready to have a long talk with Zhou Ke.

"I don't want to trade." Zhou Ke said sullenly, "The Zhou family has passed down these two shops for five generations. Even if I die, I will die here."

"Shopkeeper Zhou has both the heart of keeping the business and the skill of dyeing cloth. Do you want to make a comeback?" Gu Qingluo asked lightly.

Zhou Ke smiled wryly: "Everything needs capital, and the Zhou family is in debt now."

"Actually, I didn't come to buy your shop." Gu Qingluo said slowly, "If shopkeeper Zhou has the confidence to rise up, I can help you."

"Miss Gu?"

Zhou Ke raised his head in disbelief, hope flashed in his eyes.

But just for a moment, it disappeared.

Hou Mengui's Mansion has always disdained to make assets with merchants like them who smell like money, and Gu Qingluo must be the same.

"How much does it cost to rebuild the cloth village?" Gu Qingluo asked.

Zhou Ke was startled: "Miss Gu, are you really willing to help me?"

"There are conditions." Gu Qingluo smiled, "I will pay all the funds for the reconstruction of the cloth village, and I will take [-]% of the shares after the business."

"Really, really?" Zhou Ke couldn't believe his ears!

If he can save the Zhou family at this time, let alone [-]% of the shares, he will give [-]% of the shares!
"I've drawn up the contract, shopkeeper Zhou will take a look at it first. If it's feasible, we'll sign the contract today." After Gu Qingluo said that, Tweety presented the contract.

Zhou Ke took the contract and looked at it.

The terms are very simple, the Gu family is responsible for paying the money, and he pays for the technology and land, which is very fair.

Zhou Ke was like a dream, unable to believe that there was such a good thing in the world.

Since the cloth village was burned down, the people who came to him were either asking for debts or wanting to sell the cloth village at a low price.

He had calculated that the small amount of money for the shop would not even be enough to pay off the old debts.He couldn't eat without a plate, so he kept procrastinating.

The appearance of Gu Qingluo was like a savior.

Once the signature is signed, there will be no debts, and the cloth village will be rebuilt immediately, and the future can be expected!

"Miss Gu, why are you doing this?" Zhou Ke asked.

"I'm very interested in making money, and I believe in Shopkeeper Zhou's technology." Gu Qingluo said frankly.

She is not a saint, and the purpose of this trip is mainly to make money.

At this moment, Wang Qing broke in and shouted arrogantly: "Where is the shopkeeper? My prince wants to sell your shop..."

Zhou Ke's face changed drastically, and the hand holding the contract kept shaking.

Among all the people who came to set up shop, Prince Rui Mu Jinchen was the most shameless, and he was only given 500 taels in total!

There are more than 500 taels of land in Guangbuzhuang, let alone two street stores?
He refused several times, but Mu Jinchen didn't give up, and asked people to put pressure on him every now and then.

"Is your prince well?" Qingluan glanced over with murderous eyes.

Only then did Wang Qing notice someone.

He wanted to continue to be arrogant, but when he saw Gu Qingluo, he immediately stopped being arrogant.

"Gu, why is Miss Gu here?"

Gu Qingluo drank tea gracefully, and Zhu Feng said, "Where is my Lord Ling, can you control it?"

"Don't dare, I just didn't expect to meet Miss Gu here." Wang Qing hastily bowed obsequiously.

"Let me tell you, my master is here to discuss cooperation with shopkeeper Zhou. If you are sensible, get out, don't be an eyesore here." Qingluan snorted coldly.

Wang Qing was very surprised: "Miss Gu is also interested in cloth village?"

"Can you control it?" Zhu Feng kicked Wang Qing away, "What is it? You dare to intervene in the affairs of my Lord!"

Wang Qing turned into a parabola and flew out of Zhouji Buzhuang. Just when he thought he was about to be thrown to death, He Feng rescued him.

"Wang Qing? What's the matter with you?"

"General He, I just met Miss Gu. Her maid kicked me out." Wang Qing sighed.

I can't finish this mission today, how can I explain to the prince when I go back?

He Feng looked at the door plaque of Zhou Ji Cloth House, and asked, "She doesn't want to compete with the prince for the shop, does she?"

"It looks like it is." Wang Qing grimaced.

He Feng's face changed slightly, and he walked into the cloth house.

Zhou Ke and Gu Qingluo are already signing the contract, and there is only one last step left: using a seal.

"Luoluo." On He Feng's rough face, there was a bold smile like a general.

Gu Qingluo lowered her face in displeasure.

Just as Wang Qing was kicked away, He Feng came again, really annoying.

"Uncle He is also interested in this shop?"

"Why?" He Feng stroked his beard and smiled, "I saw Wang Qing outside just now, and I heard him say that I must get this shop, so I came in to have a look."

"Just because he wants to compete with our Lingzhu? He's beyond his control!" Qingluan sneered.

"Indeed. A guard in the palace dared to speak wild words, so I taught him a lesson." He Feng echoed while looking at the inside of the cloth house, "It's too bad. Lolo, you won't buy it. Lose money?"

"If you really lose, I will admit it." Gu Qingluo pressed her fingerprint on the contract.

Zhou Ke was afraid that people from Prince Rui's residence would make trouble again, so he quickly stamped his fingerprints.

"The contract is completed. From now on, let's change this place to Guji Buzhuang!" Zhou Ke said very self-aware.

The Gu family is a wholly-owned major shareholder, so they must change their name.

Unexpectedly, Gu Qingluo said, "No need, this place is still Zhouji Buzhuang."

"Miss Gu?" Zhou Ke was surprised.

"I'm here to invest in shares, not to seize your ancestral property." Gu Qingluo wiped off the red ink paste on her hands with a damp cloth, "I don't care about anything else except investment."

This time not only Zhou Ke, but He Feng was also stunned: "Luo Luo, this won't work! The Gu family has paid so much money, if he loses it all, or if the accounts are not clear, you will lose a lot!"

"It's okay, investment is risky, and I will admit it if I lose money." Gu Qingluo didn't care.

But Zhou Ke was concerned, and said angrily: "Miss Gu, don't worry, you save Zhou Ji from fire and water, and I, Zhou Ke, will definitely not let the Gu family's money go to waste!"
