At the end of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 239
From Bohai County to Luoyang, the eastern capital, it is undoubtedly an excellent choice to take a canal by boat. It is comfortable and comfortable, but it is a bit slow, and it is troublesome to carry a horse, so Gao Bufan finally chose to ride a horse by land.

On the tenth day of the seventh month of the eighth year of Daye, Gao Bufan and his entourage left Xunxian County and headed for Luoyang, the eastern capital. The companions included: Gao Shixiong and Gao Shiheng brothers, Gao Shou and Gao Ren, the two personal servants, the pretty maid Ming Cui, and the others. There are also a number of accompanying servants. These servants will follow Gao Bufan to Zhuojun to take up his post and take care of him in daily life, food and daily errands.

Gao Shiqing is a clear-hearted person, he knows that his two sons are average in martial arts, and their IQ is even more average. If they are not good at writing, they will not be able to achieve great success in the future. It is better to find a backer as soon as possible and hold Gao Bufan close. Even if you can't eat the meat in the end, it's good to have a drink of soup, not to mention that with Gao Bufan's generosity, he will definitely not treat the people around him badly, so when the two sons proposed to go to Zhuojun with Gao Bufan, he was very happy. He readily agreed.

Investing in original stock is undoubtedly a very smart approach, especially the original stock with great potential, which is simply a lucrative business, and Gao Bufan is undoubtedly that kind of original stock with unlimited growth potential.

As for the beautiful maid Ming Cui, Gao Bufan didn't want to take her with her at first, but his mother Chen insisted on insisting, and his father Gao Kaishan also beat and drummed, saying that it was too expensive for an official who didn't even have a maid to serve him, so Gao Bufan The young master had no choice but to follow the good example. In fact, he knew that the second elder was not interested in drinking, but just wanted to have a grandson. Speaking of men in this dynasty, there were indeed not a few men who married and had children at the age of fifteen or sixteen. But for Gao Bufan, it was really It's hard to accept, in short, before 20 years old, he will not consider the issue of having children.

No matter whether Gao Bufan accepts it or not, Ming Cui, the pretty maid, is overjoyed anyway. In order to show that she will not be held back, she insists on not taking the carriage, and insists on riding with everyone.

Gao Bufan didn't argue, he only let her ride the horse, but the carriage was still ready. Sure enough, after only riding for a long time, the pretty maid was beaten by the cruel reality and sat in the carriage obediently. It was originally the maid's order, but Got the treatment of a lady.

The pretty maid Ming Cui got into the carriage and rubbed her waist and buttocks for a long time before she recovered. She realized how hard it was to ride a horse. Master Bufan rode horses and fought side by side for several months in Goguryeo. He is also a hero among true women.

Thinking of this, Ming Cui couldn't help waking up to the wooden box that Dou Xianniang gave her to keep at the time of parting. She said it was for the daily clothes of Young Master Bu Fan, and now it was placed in a corner of the carriage.

Anyway, since she was free, she opened the wooden box to see what clothes Miss Dou had prepared for the young master. She also packed a lot of clothes before going out, enough for the young master to change and wash.

Besides, Mingcui opened the wooden box, and saw that it was indeed full of clothes, and they were neatly packed, even the underwear designed by the young master himself, probably Dou Xianniang made it herself, I really care about it.

Ming Cui rummaged through the clothes, and suddenly felt something was wrong. She tried to move the box, but found that it was extremely heavy, and she couldn't lift it at all!
Ming Cui was taken aback. It was Dou Xianniang who put the box on the carriage herself, so she didn't know it was so heavy. Obviously, there must be other things in the box, because the clothes alone can't be so heavy.

Mingcui hurriedly removed the clothes on top, and was stunned immediately. It turned out that there was half a box of gold and silver under the box, such as gold ingots and silver ingots, gold leaves, silver beans, and even gold bricks, which dazzled people.

"Ah!" The maidservant couldn't help covering her mouth and exclaiming in surprise.

Everyone on horseback outside heard this and stopped their horses suspiciously, but everyone knew that although Ming Cui was a maid in name, she was actually the son's maid, so no one came forward to check, and only waited for Gao Bufan to deal with it himself.

Gao Bufan turned his horse's head and came to the side of the carriage, and asked: "Ming Cui, what happened?"

"Young master, come in quickly." Ming Cui's voice was a little excited.

Gao Bufan couldn't help but secretly wondered, and quickly got off his horse and entered the carriage. When he saw the gold and silver in the box, he couldn't help but be stunned. Be good, these gold and silver are all converted into silver, and I'm afraid it's worth tens of thousands of taels. I'm afraid I'm going crazy, but then again, is being a bandit really that lucrative?In less than a year, so much gold and silver have been scooped up?

"Master, here is another letter, it should be left to you by Miss Dou." Ming Cui found a letter from his clothes and handed it to Gao Bufan.

Gao Bufan quickly took the letter, only to see the words "Grand Brother Gao Dear Father" written on the envelope.

"Hehe, isn't Brother Gao very surprised? In fact, Xian Niang was also surprised. I didn't expect that there were so many gold and silver treasures in my father's warehouse. Didn't Brother Gao just want to open a racecourse? It always costs money to open a racecourse. , so Xianniang "borrowed" some money from her father to Brother Gao. Hehe, Xianniang knew that Brother Gao would not accept it, so she secretly hid it under her clothes. Don't worry, Dad will give birth to Xianniang for at most one day What's more, didn't he "borrow" Brother Gao for a hundred horses? Xianniang "borrowed" some money from him for Brother Gao, and it would be evened. Brother Gao, Xianniang misses you a little bit. Zhuojun remember to write to Xianniang!"

After reading this simple and plain letter, Gao Bufan was both moved and a little helpless. It seems that he has to bite the bullet and eat this soft meal, at worst, he will give it back double in the future. Xian Niang is really a... Losing money, it is estimated that Lao Dou has already scratched the wall at this time.

In fact, Dou Jiande not only scratched the wall at this time, he even wanted to send troops to chase after him, and get back the hard-earned money he had accumulated for more than a year. It was posted to an outsider, and he was so angry that he almost vomited blood. If he knew this, he would rather not snatch Gao Bufan's one hundred horses. Grandma's, it's a big loss!

However, after all, Dou Jiande is a man of character and style, otherwise he would not be able to become the king of Xia who will dominate Hebei in the future, so he did not send troops to chase after him, but just silently recorded a sum in the account book in his heart, and put the ten cities in his mind. The dowry has become twenty, anyway, if there is one less, it is impossible for him to agree to this marriage.

Gao Bufan put away the letter and put it in his arms, Ming Cui couldn't help asking: "Master, what does Miss Dou's family do? You are really rich!"

"Maybe it's a mine!" Gao Bufan shrugged and got out of the carriage, with a look of envy on the pretty maidservant's face.

"Boss Changqing, what happened?" Gao Shixiong couldn't help asking when he saw Gao Bufan got off the carriage.

"Get rich!" Gao Bufan said casually while getting on his horse.

Gao Shou and Gao Ren looked at each other, and said in unison: "Could it be that even carriages can earn money now?"

"What do you think?" After Gao Bufan finished speaking, he clamped the horse's belly, and drove the horse to continue forward. Alas, he never dreamed that he would have a day when he would eat the soft food of Xianniang.
