Chapter 688

Who is Mrs. Chen?She was a well-known shrew in Qingfu Town, and she felt that her nephew was proud to have climbed up with Mr. Zheng's family. Could she be so mad at Boss Tian?

She immediately rolled up her sleeves and akimbo and scolded Boss Tian: "Ah bah! You said that my mother is a shrew, and where did you come from? Look at you fat head and big ears, your brain is so full of fat that you can't speak!" Let’s talk, don’t buy ham if you don’t like it. If you don’t have money, you still pretend to be a nobleman. You are a wild boar in brocade clothes. No matter how well wrapped you are, you are still a black-haired animal inside!”

Boss Tian is obese and has dark skin. At first glance, he really looks like a black wild boar.

Boss Tian trembled from being scolded, pointed at Chen Shi and said, "The shrew, you really are a shrew."

Chen didn't mind being a shrew, and thought it was good to be a shrew, and others would not dare to bully her if she was more aggressive, so she yelled angrily: "My old lady is a shrew, so are you a wild boar?"

"Pfft~" Fang Xiancheng couldn't help it anymore, he laughed out loud, and then bowed his hands at the big guy in embarrassment: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

Fang Xiancheng is very young, only 25 years old this year, and has been staying in the capital waiting for an official since he was a Jinshi in high school five years ago.Later, the case in Tianfu County became too big, and the higher-ups did not appoint the county magistrate for a long time.Originally, they wanted to transfer a county magistrate from the neighboring county, but those people were all tactful people. The court was afraid that there would be another county magistrate Zou, so they simply selected someone from their group of young and honest candidates.

He was lucky to be selected, and brought his family to take up the post. He served as the county magistrate for three years.

Gu Jinli was lying on the window of the wing room, looking at the lobby downstairs, listening to Chen's cursing words, he almost laughed out loud.Boss Tian, ​​Boss Tian, ​​it's not good for you to quarrel with, why do you want to find Mrs. Chen?This is the rhythm of wanting to be scolded to death.

Boss An couldn't sit still anymore, so he could only say, "Boss Tian, ​​sit down first, we are here to bid for ham, not to quarrel with shrews."

"Bah, that sounds really nice. Don't you want to buy low and sell high, why pretend?" Chen is very smart and has learned a lot from Gu Jinli. Buying low and selling high is what Gu Jinli often does. learnt.

Boss An swore that if this was in his mansion, that shrew who dressed like a bustard would not live until the sun went down, and would be killed by his rod immediately, but now he can only bear it.

Gu Jin'an scolded Mrs. Chen, but did not stop him. Seeing that Boss An and Boss Tian had stopped talking, he cupped his hands at the big guy and said, "Everyone, wait a moment, Mr. Gu is going to meet Mr. Zheng."

Boss An is a person who can bend and stretch, and he was the first to say: "Young Master Gu, please go ahead."

Boss Tian secretly scolded Boss An as a fox in his heart. In order to help him lose face, he turned off the fire and complimented Gu Jinan. As expected of a businessman, he only cares about profit.

Gu Jin'an smiled, and led Feng Lian to the side door of Yanfu Building, and saw two green cloth carriages as soon as he went out.

Gu Dexing got off the first carriage, followed by Zheng Ying.

Zheng Ying was very happy to see Gu Jin'an: "Brother Gu, I want to congratulate your family for having another source of income."

Since Zheng Ying has managed the family property, she knows how hard it is to make money.Aristocratic families like them can live a life of luxury and food, relying on the family wealth left by their ancestors.They would not be able to support themselves without their ancestors' huge wealth, so they felt that the Gu family could start from scratch and get rich from the things they made, which is very powerful.

Gu Jin'an said: "It's just some small fortune, it's not comparable to Brother Zheng's family property."

He also confessed: "It's really my brother's fault that you let brother Zheng go for a big festival."

Zheng Ying said, "It's okay, I just happened to be able to visit my uncle."

This family uncle is Zheng county magistrate.

While talking, two more people came down from another carriage, both of them were good-looking and extraordinary.

Coincidentally, Gu Jinan also knew these two people.

Gu Jinan smiled and cupped his hands: "Dong Dong's family, Dou Shaodong's family."

The Dong family has an excellent garden village in Jinling, and they often lend it to literati to hold literary meetings. Therefore, the Dong family is very good in the eyes of literati, and they will not look down on the Dong family just because they are merchants.

The Dou family is not from Jinling, but from the capital. Dou Shaodong's family is in charge of the Dou family's property in the south of the Yangtze River, so they have lived in Jinling for several years and met Zheng Ying.This time he will follow, just for the ham.

Dou Shaodong's family is young, but in his early twenties, and he is relatively straightforward. After seeing Gu Jin'an, he immediately said: "Brother An, the auction has started? Don't be silly, go in and have a look at the ham, and want to reminisce about the old days. Say more."

Knowing Dou Shaodong's temper, Gu Jin'an said with a smile: "It's just about to start, everyone come in first."

It's getting late now, and he also wants to get the auction done as soon as possible.

Gu Jinan led Zheng Ying and the others into Yanfu Building, and looked at Gu Dexing halfway.

Gu Dexing smiled and nodded at him, obviously the trip went well, he showed his face in front of Zheng Ying.

Gu Jin'an felt relieved, walked through the curved side passage, and entered the lobby of the restaurant.

When Zheng Ying saw Ouyang Hu, he immediately rushed over to salute: "Wan Sheng pays homage to Mr. Ouyang. I didn't expect Mr. Ouyang to be here. It's really fate."

Some time ago, Ouyang Hu went to participate in the cultural meeting of the Zheng family's painting boat, but he only stayed at the Zheng family for a few days, and then left Jinling to continue his travels. Unexpectedly, he went to Qingfu Town and Yanfu Tower.

Ouyang Hu smiled and said: "The boy from the Zheng family is here, sit down quickly and taste the ham. After you have tasted it, you will bid for it."

He also greeted Dong Dong's family and Dou Shaodong's family: "You two are also here to buy ham, hurry up, come and try and bid."

It looked like his family was selling ham.

Dong Dong's family and Dou Shaodong's family were stunned for a while, and when they came back to their senses, they took their seats in a good manner, and after eating a few slices of ham, they sighed: "As expected of a delicacy that was made in three years, the taste is really unique."

He asked Gu Jinan again: "Brother An, how long can this ham be kept? Will the taste change? How will eating it affect the body?"

Gu Jinan replied: "Ham can be preserved for a long time, and it is not a problem for a few years; as long as it is preserved well, the taste will not change with time; eating it will not harm the body."

Ouyang Hu said: "Don't worry, the old man has already eaten several dishes, and there is nothing wrong with it. The biggest problem is that I still want to eat after eating."

The Ouyang family has a very high status among the literati of the Great Chu. Although it is not as good as the Lu family in the previous dynasty, it is still a family that can have a far-reaching influence with a word. Buy the ham.

Gu Jin'an didn't waste any more time, walked up to the high platform, and said: "The base price of a piece of ham is 500 taels, and the price will increase by 50 taels each time. The higher price will win. If you want to buy it, please make an offer."

With a clang, he hit a piece of iron with a hammer, making a crisp sound, and the auction began.
