The road of the farmer's fortune and the imperial examination

Chapter 200 Strange People

By the time Gu Chengyu finished copying the answers on the test paper, the sun was already dying!
Looking at the past from the sky above the examination room, only a little residual glow can be seen.Gu Chengyu checked the exam paper and saw that there was nothing wrong.After waiting for a while, someone rang the bell.

If someone is the first to hand in the paper, it will be inconspicuous for him to ring the bell at this time.Gu Chengyu shook the small bell next to him, and after a while, two ritual books came to name Gu Chengyu's test paper.

Everything is for the examination room, Gu Chengyu only needs to walk out of the tribute courtyard easily.Suddenly seeing Jiang Zhifu sitting at the top gave him a meaningful look, and he saluted Jiang Zhifu.

Gu Wanqian and Ming Mo had been waiting outside the Gong Yuan for a long time, and when they saw Gu Chengyu coming out, they immediately stepped forward.

"My lord! I asked Yazi about the shop I went to yesterday, and he said that the owner of the restaurant can only take 20 taels less! If he doesn't want it, then he can only find another buyer!" Ming Mo had already run away yesterday. Among the many dental shops, there are only two shops that Gu Chengyu likes.

One is a large shop with three doors, located on West Street, surrounded by rouge, gouache and silk.It used to be a restaurant, but the dishes were not very novel, and it was robbed of business by another newly opened one. Seeing that the business was sluggish, the owner wanted to sell the shop and return to his hometown.

There is another one in North Street, the shop is not big, it should be enough to make a pastry shop, and the people living in North Street are all big families, and there are not many shops.Since his Yipinzhai intends to take the high-end route, the price is naturally not low.The shop is at the intersection, the location is good, don't worry about no business.

It's just that the prices of the two families couldn't agree, Gu Chengyu couldn't help feeling emotional, after all, it's a prefectural city, and the price of that shop is more than three times higher than that of the county town!The small shop asked for 400 taels, but the three-door restaurant asked for 300 taels.

Originally, he thought that some time ago, the shops in the town and the county made a lot of money, but he didn't expect that all the money he earned was put into it, and he almost made it.Today he asked Ming Mo to negotiate the price again, in order to make the master's family less.Who knew that the master would not let go after biting him to death, which made Gu Chengyu's teeth itch with anger!

"Only willing to lose 20 taels? This is ridiculous! He won't lose, and I don't want to buy it! The other one won't lose a penny?" Gu Chengyu asked another small shop, the restaurant doesn't buy it, and there will be opportunities in the future If he buys it, he can't open a restaurant for the time being, so it's better to find a suitable one later!

The pastry shop is eagerly waiting to open, because the money he earns is far from enough.Although there is a lot of gold and silver in the space, how can one earn money and use it practically?
"That one." Ming Mo scratched his head, he is really not good at negotiating prices, he is stupid and can't speak, and Manager Yu is not around, so you can't let the young master run around, right?The young master is here for the exam, how can he have the time to care about these things?
Gu Chengyu thought that yesterday he took a quick look at the shop, and today he took the exam all day, and now it's getting late, so he can't go to someone's place to discuss business at night.

Gu Chengyu also knows that Mingmo is honest, and he fulfills his orders meticulously, his martial arts foundation is not bad, and he takes care of his daily life even more meticulously.It's just that he doesn't know anything about business, so he can't let him handle business matters every time in the future, right?
Paralyzed Yu is even more incapable of splitting up, and there are still too few people who can use it!Suddenly, he turned his eyes and looked at Gu Wanqian who was standing beside him. At this time, Gu Wanqian was serious, as if he was thinking about something, so he didn't pay attention to Gu Chengyu's gaze!

"Thousands!"

Gu Wanqian was thinking about what Gu Chengyu and the others talked about just now. In fact, he had some thoughts in his heart. He would talk dryly with the seller about the price. Of course, he would not let it go. If Mingmo showed more eagerness, the seller would even insist on it. He refused to let go.In the past few days by the young master's side, he has grown eyes, and he has become more courageous, so the young master might as well ask him to try it!

Gu Wanqian was immersed in his own thoughts when he heard Gu Chengyu calling him!

"Hey! Uncle!"

"I'll entrust you with this matter? You do it to the best of your ability. If you do well, of course I will reward you; if you can't do it, then it will be a lesson for you!"

"Uncle? Me..." Gu Wanqian couldn't believe his ears, did uncle really leave this matter to him?

"Okay! That's all for this matter!" Gu Chengyu planned to give Gu Wanqian a day, and if the discussion failed, he planned to discuss it in person!

By the time Sun Xian and the others came out, it was already the beginning of the unitary hour.

"Uncle! Fortunately, this time the master forced me to study at home, otherwise I guess I could only write more than half of it. That's it, there are still two questions to be done!" After Gu Wanhua came out, he was a little worried, and he didn't know this time. Can you live in the end, how can you be so lucky every time?

"It can only be said that you are doing your best and obeying the destiny!" He Shunian also sighed aside. Thousands of candidates, it is really difficult to get into the top ranks!
"We'll find out when the case happens tomorrow! Since we've passed the exam, don't think too much about it. Let's go back quickly! I'm starving to death!" Sun Xian rubbed his belly, feeling empty .

Gu Chengyu and his group walked for more than a quarter of an hour before reaching the inn. This inn is indeed far away!
"Boss Niu! Serve us a few dishes quickly, and eat in the lobby!" Gu Wanhua was about to yell as soon as he entered the inn!
"You guys just came back now, I think they are very hungry! His mother, first pick up two of the cold dishes that were cut into plates!" The shopkeeper Niu hurriedly ordered to the backyard when he saw Gu Chengyu and the others coming in.

Gu Chengyu and the others picked a table in the corner and sat down. Not long after, the shopkeeper Niu personally brought over two dishes.

One plate is cooked pig's head meat, and the other is sauced pig's trotters. "Let's eat first, and the hot dishes will be served later!"

"The shopkeeper please cook some vegetarian side dishes!" Gu Chengyu ordered to the shopkeeper Niu.

Just as he was about to pick up his chopsticks and put them down, he saw everyone at the next table looking towards them.There was only a plate of cold cucumbers on their table, and the six of them were holding two white flour steamed buns in their hands, and they all bitten half of them. They seemed to have their eyes on their table.

Gu Chengyu took a closer look, but found that he was not staring at their dishes, but observing them!
Gu Chengyu frowned, the eyes of these people were not very friendly!It's not that there are no meat dishes on the other tables, but they only stare at their table. What does this mean?
Then Gu Chengyu took a few glances at them, and the group of people turned around and continued eating.Gu Chengyu also looked away, and I don't know if he is sensitive, but I always feel that they are making eye contact with each other!
Gu Chengyu carefully observed their movements just now, the straight back and muscular arms seemed to be accumulating strength.Compared with ordinary people, they have more fierceness!
"Go to my room after dinner, I have something to tell you!" Gu Chengyu planned to remind them that there is no harm in being cautious!I'm afraid these people are not good people!
"What's wrong?" Seeing Gu Chengyu's serious face, Sun Xian thought something happened!

The people at that table glanced over here again, and were caught by Gu Chengyu, but they didn't show any strange expressions, but calmly turned their heads and continued to eat steamed buns.

Gu Chengyu decided to inquire about the origins of this group of people with Shopkeeper Niu later. There were six of them in total, and although they were dressed as if they were carrying jobs, Gu Chengyu felt that this was not the case!
