Chapter 56 Uninvited Guests
Chapter 56 Uninvited Guests
Seeing the butler taking the thousand taels of silver from his hands, the old man smiled brightly and happily took people to buy the necessary items for the mansion.
Gu Hua also laughed, feeling that it wasn't so bad after all the effort he put into supporting these servants.
The butler had just left, and Gu Hua was just about to send away the two men in front of him who seemed to be practicing silent meditation and pretending to be deep.
She went to visit Chunlan and Dongmei who were injured last night when they tried to stop them and call for help because they discovered Qiuju and her daughter leading Gu Yuming and his gang to sneak into the small storehouse in the main courtyard to steal.
As soon as he stood up, he saw a servant hurried over and reported: "Master, the Wan family, the Song family, and several other wealthy businessmen from Jiangzhou City have come and claim that they want to see you for something."
Gu Hua raised one eyebrow, his eyes cold, "I heard that this time when I went to Saibei, not only did I not make any money to revive my family business, but I also lost the goods I transported."
“I can’t wait to see my joke and put pressure on me, the useless head of the Gu family who lost the goods and is on the verge of ruin and unable to turn the tide.
I want to buy the remaining dozens of Gu family shops at a price as low as dirt."
Su Fuying's face also sank and she frowned, "Boss guessed right, this is the purpose of their trip."
Gu Hua stood up, rolled up his sleeves, and said calmly: "Let's go, let's go meet those bastards who want to take advantage of this family master."
"Cough." Qi Yan, who had been silent all this time, clenched his fist and put it to his lips, and coughed lightly. Looking at the woman in front of him with cold eyes, he felt that whoever could take advantage of her would probably have to lose a layer of skin first.
"What? Do you have any objections to what I said?" Gu Hua glanced at Qi Yan.
Qi Yan smiled and admitted: "I dare not."
Su Fuying looked at this man who was indifferent to everyone except when he was gentle in front of Gu Hua. She pursed her lips and followed Gu Hua out of the pavilion.
Gu Hua walked slowly towards the front yard, chatting with the two of them and talking about them carefreely.
Anyway, she is not in a hurry. If those people who want to take advantage of her can't wait, she has no objection if they leave.
When Qi Yan and Su Fuying saw her like this, they knew that Gu Hua was taking advantage of those wealthy businessmen from Jiangzhou City. If she wanted to take advantage of them, why not wait a little longer?
When Gu Hua, with two men, one handsome and the other tall and burly, moved to the front yard, they saw five or six wealthy businessmen of different heights, weights and statures, dressed in gorgeous silk clothes, standing in the hall with grim expressions on their faces.
"Is this how you entertain guests at the Gu Mansion?"
Dagui walked up to Gu Hua with an embarrassed look on his face, lowered his head and said, "Master, it's not that I don't know how to entertain guests, it's just that the conditions at home don't allow it."
How could Gu Hua not know that the tables, chairs and tea sets used to entertain guests in the house had been taken away by the Gu family, so he waved to Dagui.
"It's okay. The wealthy businessmen chose to come at this time, so they should have guessed that there would be such a situation. Master Wan and Master Song, do you agree?"
They came uninvited and were the ones causing trouble to us. It was not normal for us to be treated like this.
What else could the Wan family head and the Song family head say? Could they say that they didn't know that the Gu family was looted by the clansmen, or that Gu Hua didn't know how to entertain guests?
If they said they didn't know that the Gu family was robbed by their clansmen, that would be complete nonsense. The news had spread throughout the streets and alleys of Jiangzhou City. How could a family like theirs who had people specifically looking for news not know about it?
Since they knew they were coming to disturb the host at this time, if they dared to say that the Gu family did not know how to entertain guests, I am afraid that Gu Hua would spit in their faces and drive them out.
...Knowing that it is inconvenient for others, but still going to their house, who is the one who does not know the rules? It is clear at a glance. "Humph!" Patriarch Wan and Patriarch Song turned their heads away in displeasure, not intending to continue the topic.
A wealthy businessman who knew he was in the wrong said quickly, "Don't blame me, don't blame me. It's us who are causing trouble for the current situation at the Gu Mansion."
Gu Hua smiled and nodded, "I'm glad you don't blame me."
Su Fuying resisted the urge to roll her eyes and asked, "Why don't you just say that you shouldn't have come here at this moment?"
It was obvious that the wealthy businessmen had been living a life of luxury for a long time, and they had been left alone for half an hour, so their calves were trembling after standing for such a long time.
Gu Hua smiled with satisfaction.
"Master Gu is so arrogant. Master Song and Master Wan have condescended to come to your house, but you made them wait for so long."
Among them was a businessman from one of the two major families. Seeing that Gu Hua had been waiting for them for so long without any shame, he loudly rebuked him.
The heads of the Wan and Song families obviously thought the same. The two heads gave each other an appreciative look, and the businessman who had attacked Gu Hua showed a smug expression on his face.
Gu Hua saw the big-faced businessman in front of her. She was always outspoken and not afraid of offending people, so she didn't indulge them. "If you don't want to wait, you can leave. It's as if someone invited you here."
"You..." Patriarch Wan and Patriarch Song felt humiliated and glared at Gu Hua, who looked calm. "You are such an ignorant boy. No wonder you are about to lose all your family fortune."
Among the six people, except for the one who just said that it was not surprising, the other few merchants who still had some sense of shame followed suit and said, "That's right, we are here to help you solve the problem of the Gu family's shop that is about to go bankrupt.
Not only are you not grateful, you are so arrogant to me. You really don't know what you are talking about."
"Who said my shop is going to close down?" Gu Hua said calmly, "It's definitely a rumor. How can you just hear it from others?"
"Pfft."
"hehe!!"
The two men who couldn't help but sneer looked at each other, and then quickly looked away.
Patriarch Wan and Patriarch Song were so annoyed by Gu Hua's stubborn and rude attitude that veins popped in their heads and they wanted to hit him.
So he stopped beating around the bush with her, and the head of the Wan family, Wan Jingui, said with disdain, "You thought that by arranging the silk shop before you left and making those new and beautiful women's clothing, you could revive the losing shop's business.
But you forgot the influence of the four major families in Jiangzhou City. When the news of your disappearance in Saibei came back, it would only make your Gu family business fail faster."
Gu Hua didn't care and raised her eyebrows. She didn't think those new styles of clothes could revive the shop, but she wanted the shop to have more profit until she returned from Saibei.
Who would have thought that something would happen to her in the middle of the journey? Just as her own caravan encountered difficulties, she was brought back by the young master of the Chen family who was passing by doing business.
When the news of her disappearance and unknown life and death spread back to Jiangzhou City, the wives and daughters of those wealthy families, taking into account the Wan and Song families who wanted to acquire the Gu family's shop, ordered them not to come to the Gu family to spend money. This made the Gu family's shop even worse, and now it is on the verge of collapse and can no longer be sustained.
The head of the Song family also said firmly: "While we are very willing to take it now, quickly sell the remaining 46 shops of your Gu family to us at a package price of 500 taels per shop.
Otherwise, our two families will join forces to squeeze you out and leave you with nowhere to go. I'm afraid that by then you'll beg us for five hundred taels per room, but it depends on whether we're willing to accept it."
