Chapter 64

Song Yu said with a smile: "You came at the right time, and there is a task that we need to do."

"What task?" Gu Chen suddenly became interested.

"Copy the house." Song Yu said.

Hearing this, Gu Chen raised his eyebrows slightly, and said, "Which Jianghu power?"

Song Yu shook his head slightly, and said, "It's a Daxia official."

Gu Chen was a little surprised and said: "People from the imperial court? Isn't this the scope of the Department of Mirror's duties?"

Song Yu took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, and explained to Gu Chen: "This time the situation is special. It was originally a matter of the Department of Mirrors, but the captain died suddenly two days ago. According to information, it may be the Killed by ghosts, this is the scope of our Jing Tiansi's responsibility."

"Brother, you just came here, you are lucky, this is a good job." Song Yu looked at Gu Chen with a smile on his face, with a look of "you understand".

Gu Chen suddenly understood why he didn't understand Song Yu's meaning. He just wanted to grab some valuables while raiding the house.

Besides, they are the ones in charge of this mission, so as long as they don't go too far, there is absolutely no problem.

After all, the amount of property is not up to them.

Of course, according to what Song Yu meant, this time it was Jingtian Division and Ming Jing Division who jointly enforced the law. This situation has happened a few times, but not many times.

"When?" Gu Chen asked.

"Tomorrow, gather here." Song Yu said.

Gu Chen nodded, and after knowing some details about Jingtiansi's headquarters, Gu Chen left here.

When there is no task, Jing Tiansi is still very free, and the time can be arranged by himself, as long as he does not leave Tiandu.

"This is the benefit of being a civil servant." Gu Chen secretly sighed in his heart.

After coming out of Jingtiansi headquarters, Gu Chen wandered around the inner city for a while, bought some antiques for his second uncle Gu Chengfeng, and bought some jewelry and rouge powder for his aunt Xu Qing'e and younger sister Gu Qingyan.

The last time I came to the inner city, I only saw the prosperity of the inner city. Gu Chen didn't dare to look at a single thing, because he knew that with his annual salary of several hundred taels, he would never be able to afford such good things.

But today is different from the past. Now Gu Chen is a rich man. After the Xiexin Sect ruins, he got tens of thousands of taels of silver notes. Feng snatched thousands of taels of silver bills from him, so he was very confident.

Gu Chen looked at the wide streets, people coming and going, and the bustling inner city, and suddenly wanted to buy a property here.

But then, he shook his head and laughed again, because even if he made a fortune and wanted to settle down in the inner city, it was still not enough.

After all, he didn't live alone when he bought the house, but also his second uncle and his family, as well as the servants of the Gu family.

The better mansions in the outer city can cost thousands of taels, while in the inner city, it costs at least tens of thousands of taels to buy an ordinary house.

Living in the capital is not easy.

"It would be great if Da Xia could pay in installments." Gu Chen said with emotion.

Gu Chen, who was carrying a bunch of presents, rented a carriage, left the inner city, and returned to the Gu residence.

"The eldest son is back." Back at the Gu mansion, Zhang Bo, the concierge, saw Gu Chen with a big smile on his old face.

Gu Chen took out some gifts from the package, handed them to Uncle Zhang, and said, "Uncle Zhang, you have worked hard, you have worked hard all these years."

Seeing this, Uncle Zhang smiled even more, feeling a little embarrassed, but under Gu Chen's repeated request, he still accepted the things.

Afterwards, entering Gu's mansion, Gu Chen found that his second uncle Gu Chengfeng was stretching his body in the yard, exercising martial arts, apparently his injuries had almost healed.

After all, Gu Chengfeng is still a martial artist in the meridian state, and his foundation is there. With good wound medicine and his own internal breath adjustment, his vitality recovers quickly.

"Da Lang is back." Gu Chengfeng's eyes lit up when he saw Gu Chen.

"I have recovered from my injuries, and I haven't used martial arts for a long time. My body is very tight, and I am worried that no one will help me. Now that you are back, Dalang, it is time to compete with my second uncle. Let me see how your martial arts has improved recently."

When Gu Chen heard this, a smile appeared on his face. Since Gu Chengfeng was interested, Gu Chen would not refuse. He handed the things in his hand to the servants at the side, came to Gu Chengfeng, and played with him for a while.

Of course, in the whole process, Gu Chengfeng took the shot and Gu Chen defended. After all, with his current strength, Gu Chengfeng couldn't withstand a casual blow.

"Da Lang, why have you been defending all the time and not attacking at all, is it because your wings are stiff and you can't beat the second uncle?" Gu Chengfeng pretended to be displeased.

When Gu Chen heard this, a smile appeared in his eyes, and he said, "Second Uncle, then I'm going to make a move, so be careful."

"Just let the horse come over." Gu Chengfeng said carelessly.

boom!
In the next second, the two palmed each other, and Gu Chengfeng flew into the air, and was pushed far away by Gu Chen's skillful force.

After landing, Gu Chengfeng's eyes widened and he looked at Gu Chen with an incredulous expression on his face. He never thought that his all-out blow would be dispelled so easily by his nephew.

"Second Uncle, I've accepted it." Gu Chen said with a light smile.

"it is good!"

Seeing that Gu Chen has such strength, Gu Chengfeng laughed and said, "As expected of the seed of my Gu family, your achievement is not in vain, second uncle, I have taught you so many years."

At this time, Xu Qing'e walked over with Gu Qingyan, she gave Gu Chengfeng a white look, and said: "Master, you really know how to put gold on your face."

"Hahahaha..." Gu Chengfeng didn't care when he heard this, he just laughed, obviously very happy.

"Da Lang, you came back right after you came back, why are you still so out of touch, and brought so many gifts?" Xu Qing'e looked at the large and small parcels in the servant's hands, and gave Gu Chen a somewhat reproachful look.

Gu Chen smiled slightly, and said: "I went to the inner city just now, and I happened to see some gadgets that match Auntie and Qingyan very well, so I wanted to buy them back to have a look."

"I have a heart." Xu Qing'e pursed her lips and smiled.

"Thank you, brother." Gu Qingyan at the side also said softly.

Beauty is a woman's nature, no matter which world you are in, it is the same. Seeing the jewelry, rouge, gouache, etc. that Gu Chen bought, Xu Qing'e and Gu Qingyan couldn't take their eyes off immediately, so they tried it on in the yard .

"You two women, what's so good about these rouge and gouache, Dalang and you too, why waste your money buying these useless things." Gu Chengfeng shook his head as he watched, thinking that Gu Chen was not thrifty enough to live a good life.

Hearing this, Xu Qing'e glared at Gu Chengfeng immediately, and said angrily, "If you were half as caring as Da Lang, I wouldn't be so angry with you."

"Daddy is indeed an elm head." Gu Qingyan at the side also nodded her head lightly, agreeing very much.

Hearing this, Gu Chengfeng was immediately embarrassed.

At this time, Gu Chen said: "Second Uncle, I picked up some antiques, I don't know the authenticity, I know you are an expert in this field, you help me to identify."

"Oh?" Hearing that there was an antique, Gu Chengfeng's eyes lit up immediately, and he hurried to get closer.

He is a warrior after all, his strong body directly pushed the weak Xu Qing'e and Gu Qingyan aside.

The mother and daughter looked at each other, feeling a little helpless, Xu Qing'e punched Gu Chengfeng a little angrily, but at this moment, Gu Chengfeng only had eyes for those antiques, he couldn't put them down, and he didn't care about everything outside.

At the dinner table, Gu Chen explained to his second uncle's family the news that he had become the capital inspector. Gu Chengfeng immediately became happier. He pulled Gu Chen and started drinking, even Xu Qing'e couldn't stop him.

After drinking for three rounds, Gu Chen was fine, but Gu Chengfeng drank too much, his tongue grew big, he pulled Gu Chen, talking about the past, and when he mentioned Gu Chen's parents, his eyes turned red.

After drinking a few more glasses of wine, Gu Chengfeng's eyes blurred and he was completely drunk. He tugged on Gu Chen's sleeve and said over and over again that he was promising and grown up.

Gu Chen was a little helpless, it looked like he couldn't leave tonight, and he drank until late at night.

In the early morning of the next day, Gu Chen was dressed in black clothes, hung the Chilian sword at his waist, and headed for the inner city.
