When the prince of no descendants found out that he had a baby, he went crazy

Chapter 48 Gu Hua counted on her fingers and found that she had become a rich woman
Gu Hua and Qi Yan looked at each other, then continued watching the show with a smile.

Finally, after a discussion among the group of people, the four shoemakers' shops would sell sheepskin, cowhide, deerskin and wolfskin that Gu Hua traded back from the northern barbarian hunters...

Eight high-quality cars, two for each family.

Medium-sized fur goods require twelve carts, and a family can carry three carts.

When it comes to the purchase price for making shoes and boots, the most affordable ones are still low-grade leather goods, so the four companies bought up all of Gu Hua's low-grade leather goods.

Anyway, I can’t use it up this year, so as long as I keep it properly, I can continue to use it next year.

They in the Great Xuan Dynasty did not have such a large pasture, only a small pastoral area on the border. Their supply of goods was very tight every year. They had finally come across Gu Hua who had brought back so many furs, so how could they let him go easily.

For fur shops that specialize in selling mid- to high-end furs, they have little use for low-quality leathers, so they don't compete with the four shoemaker shops.

After the deal was settled, Gu Hua mentioned his investment in Xi's Jinyuanfang to the owners of a shoemaker shop and a fur shop, who were in the same business as him.

The obvious implication is that she will be in charge of this store in the future. Originally, people thought she was just a business traveler passing through here, but they didn't expect that she also invested in Jinyuanfang, owned by Madam Xi.

Considering that she earned 500,000 or 600,000 taels of silver from the nine families in this business transaction, she is a person that cannot be underestimated, so it is better not to offend her if possible.

Several people were very considerate and greeted Madam Xi politely, which was regarded as their recognition of her first step to gain a foothold in this industry.

Gu Hua can only help her up to this point, the rest is up to Madam Xi herself.

On the other hand, when Mr. Xi heard that Gu Hua had invited almost all the fur shop owners in Wanping Prefecture except him, he was so angry that he smashed his beloved teacup on the spot.

Boss Xi and his son, who were upset because their warehouse was burned down for no reason, contacted a relative in the Caoqing Gang again.

Gu Hua didn't know what didn't happen.

After she came back, she found Yan Minghua and Gu family’s chief steward Fu Bo’s clever youngest son Ergui and asked, “You also know that I invested in Xi family’s Jinyuanfang, and I now own half of the shares of this store.

I want to keep the two of you here to help Madam Xi run this shop, are you willing?"

Yan Minghua: "Everything is up to the boss."

"Whatever the master tells you to do, you do it."

Gu Hua looked at the innocent yet serious eyes of the fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy and said with a smile: "I will leave you in this store. You study hard and I will make arrangements for you in the future.

But you can't let your temper slacken just because you are my loved one and Madam Xi is lenient with you."

Ergui's eyes lit up. How could he not hear that the master of the family was intentionally training and using him? "I will definitely study hard here and live up to the master's expectations."

Gu Hua nodded, then turned to Yan Minghua and said, "Mrs. Xi learned that you are the accountant and decided whether you should stay in Jinyuanfang or manage the accounts."

"Yes."

Gu Hua thought for a moment and said, "Take good care of Ergui and help him grow up quickly. I plan to open a branch in Beijing in the next one or two years.

If you two are useful, I will send you two to run a store."

"This..." Yan Minghua didn't expect that Gu Hua had this intention in mind when he kept him and Ergui in Wanping Prefecture, which was close to the capital, to help Madam Xi run the shop.

This is to let them both know about the situation around the capital in advance. After all, this place is relatively close to the capital, and many people from the capital come here to play and do business. Staying here is still very helpful for understanding the capital. Yan Minghua put his hands together and saluted: "Yes, I will teach Ergui some things about the store."

Gu Hua looked at him with a smile. Yan Minghua used to be a scholar, but for some reasons he stopped studying and thought about working as an accountant to earn money to support his family.

He was fooled and cheated by the shopkeeper Ma of Gu's grocery store and worked as a front desk clerk for a long time. Later, he wanted to avenge his sister and stayed in the grocery store for many years. He should have some experience on how to run a store.

The two of them were arranged to go to Madam Xi's place.

Gu Hua then took care of the rest.

The five carts of high-quality furs and five carts of medium-quality furs that had been reserved did not require so many people to transport the goods. Gu Hua instructed Mu Feng to settle the expenses of the troops hired from the border town, and gave them some reward money to let them go back early.

Because there are not many people and goods left.

In order to get back to Jiangzhou as soon as possible, Gu Hua planned to take people and goods back from Wanping Wharf on a cargo ship. This would not only save a lot of time, but as long as he did not get seasick, riding a boat would be more comfortable than riding in a bumpy carriage.

After staying in Wanping Mansion for another day, Xia He took the initiative to ask to take a few newly bought maids to stay and take care of the four little masters who were already well fed by Gu Hua.

Gu Hua took Mu Xue to the bustling Wanping Prefecture Street to buy the supplies they and their children would need for the journey. Qi Yan and Mu Feng, who followed them, became their younger brothers to pick up the goods.

The two tall men were covered with bags. They looked at each other helplessly and shook their heads, indicating that they did not understand the joy of women shopping.

Although the winter in the inland is not as cold as in the northern frontier, winter is winter. Jiangzhou City is not located in the south of Daxuan, so it still snows in winter.

Gu Hua bought a lot of warm things for himself and his four children, and also bought a lot of high-quality smokeless silver frost charcoal to take with them for heating on the road.

I also bought two ewes that had given birth to lambs. If she had to go out for something and couldn't come back for a while, the children would need a wet nurse.

……

the next day.

The caravan led by Gu Hua was ready to set off. With the farewell of Xi Niangzi, Yan Minghua, Ergui and others, they boarded a pre-arranged cargo ship from the canal dock and left Wanping Prefecture.

Gu Hua, who was lying on the bed in the cabin of the cargo ship and dozing with her eyes closed, was silently calculating in her mind how much property she had in her space.

A pile of broken stones that were suspected to be jade, and a box of jewelry left by the original owner's parents.

Shah Rukh looted a small box of gold from the secret passage, three boxes of various jewellery, and twenty-four boxes of silver ingots.

There was also the border town governor's mansion, his favorite concubine's brother, and the bully's brother-in-law's house, who found the proceeds from the sale of her goods, a total of more than 300,000 silver coins and silver notes.

Gu Hua felt that they sold the goods that she had transported to the northern frontier at a low price. Therefore, she was not very happy. She threw the evidence of the prefect's bad deeds into the Zhenbei General's Mansion where Xiao Junlin lived.

He also set fire to the bully's brother-in-law's house.

The rest was the 580,000 taels of silver notes he had earned from the fur trade with several shops in Wanping Prefecture, which filled a box in the space.

Gu Hua counted with his fingers and found that, not including the pile of broken stones and four boxes of jewellery, there were now more than one million taels of silver in the space.
