Prosperity: Conquering Billions of Gambling Kings

Chapter 93 The Secret of the Old House
Gu Xiaobei smiled and hummed, his eyes were like peach blossoms in full bloom in spring, bright and moving.

"Brother Huaian—"

When the two brothers and sisters were discussing, a man's hearty voice came from outside.

Turning around, Gu Xiaobei saw a man in gray cloth trotting into the store.

"Mu Qing, you're back." Gu Huaian greeted him, "How's it going?"

Gu Xiaobei blinked, and Gu Huaian was busy introducing.

"This is my sister, Xiao Bei. Xiao Bei, the friend I just mentioned to you, Mu Qing."

"Brother Mu Qing~~" Gu Xiaobei narrowed his eyes and called out sweetly.

The man smiled foolishly, nodded, looked a little shy, and then got to the point, "Brother Huai'an, I've already taken a look at the warehouse. It's on the northernmost side of Yunxi Road. It's near the wharf. It's convenient for us to get in and out of the goods. The location Well, the price is also cheap. Why don't you go and have a look?"

"Xiaobei, together?" Gu Huaian looked at Gu Xiaobei beside him.

Nodding their heads, the three of them went out, hailed a rickshaw, and headed towards the warehouse on Yunxi Road.

On the way, Gu Xiaobei also complained that Gu Huaian spent money indiscriminately.

"Brother, Yunxi Road seems to be a residential area, why is there suddenly such a large space for you to use as a warehouse?" Gu Xiaobei thought about it, still a little curious.

The location on Yunxi Road is also considered good. The land price should not be cheap. Brother Huai’an put the warehouse here, so it’s convenient for the room. Is the price a bit more expensive... I don’t know what happened to him in the bank and borrowed it so much A lot of money comes out...

"The concessions are divided so badly that the current Yunxi Road has declined, not as it used to be. People with status have moved to Nanjing Road, Huaihai Road, and the British and French Concession..." Gu Huaian explained.

Ten minutes later, the three people got off the car on Yunxi Road.

After walking a few steps, Mu Qing stopped.

"Brother Huai'an, this is the place. I have already called a few people to come over to help, tidy up the inside, it has been abandoned for a while."

Gu Xiaobei looked forward in the direction of Mu Qing's finger.

It looked like a rather large house, with tall gray and white courtyard walls, magnificent, and the gate was rusty due to years of wind and rain.

The bricks on the wall were a little loose, and some weeds grew in the gaps.

Gu Xiaobei walked into the house together behind Mu Qing. The huge yard was covered with weeds. Several workers were helping in the yard. When they saw someone coming in, they said hello.

Looking at the construction and scale of the house, the owner who lived here must have been from a good family, but for some reason, the good house has been abandoned like this.

But in the past few years, all the prominent and respected people in Shanghai have gone to live in garden houses. Who would want to live in such an old and dull-looking house.

Gu Xiaobei remembered that in the class of modern Western history, the teacher once said that architecture is the epitome of culture and art of an era, and old buildings need to be protected. Now that I think about it, it makes sense.

Perhaps, it won't be long before this kind of old-style house will become rare in Shanghai.

"It's a good place. After tidying it up, we removed the wall between the east and west rooms in front and connected it together. It's convenient to store the goods." Gu Huaian said while looking at it.

Mu Qing echoed beside him.

"Xiaobei? What are you thinking about?" Seeing her distracted, Gu Huaian gently tapped her forehead.
