Chapter 29 No one can stop her from making money

Gu Mingzhu was woken up by someone.

It was pitch black outside the car, except for the illuminated lanterns hung in the gates along the road.

Gu Mingzhu noticed the person beside her, resting her head on his shoulder, and asked sleepily, "Brother, where are you?"

"arrive."

It wasn't Gu Xiurong's voice.

Gu Mingzhu raised her eyes suddenly, Xu Jue was looking down at her in the dark, but Gu Mingzhu couldn't see her expression clearly.

She quickly sat upright, feeling a little embarrassed, Gu Xiurong lifted the curtain and said, "Wanwan, we're here."

In the middle of the night, Jiangling City was unspeakably cold, and there were two lanterns hanging in front of the mansion, exactly the same as before.

The six-day journey consumed too much energy, and after entering the courtyard, Gu Mingzhu soon fell into a deep sleep.

The next day.

Someone outside the courtyard was talking softly.

Gu Mingzhu woke up, she sat up, was stunned for a while, and then got up.

Open the door, the weather is fine.

"Miss."

"Miss."

When the two maids saw her, they saluted respectfully.

The garden where Gu Mingzhu lives is called Diu Taoyuan.

There are two peach trees planted in the yard, which are full of pink buds at this time, and they are shy.

Everything is the same as before.

She walked around the corridor and said, "Where's brother?"

"Miss Hui, my lord has left the house early." It was the maid Liu'er.

There was nothing to do all morning, and at noon, Chun'er and Yang Jiu also arrived.

"Miss..." Chun'er was overjoyed after not seeing Gu Mingzhu for a few days, and told her about the journey along the way, and ordered people to put all the boxes in place. After such a busy day, one day passed.

Early the next morning, the maid Liu'er came to report, "Miss, there is someone at the door asking to see you."

Chun'er is drawing eyebrows for Gu Mingzhu.

"Who can I say?"

Liu Er said: "He said his name is Guan Da."

Gu Mingzhu brushed Chun'er's hand away and said, "Please come in."

Seeing this, Chun'er didn't ask any questions, she tidied up the dressing table and said, "I'll go to the small kitchen to make some food for the lady."

Gu Mingzhu got up and left the house, just as Guan Da came into the garden, she smiled slightly: "Uncle Guan, you've been exhausted all the way."

Guan Da also said with a smile: "It's not tiring, as long as the eldest miss orders, Guan Da will do his best."

"Uncle Guan, let's sit down and talk." Gu Mingzhu invited him to the side room.

Gu Mingzhu cut to the chase and said: "Uncle Guan promised to serve me as the chef, and I invited Uncle Guan to come to Jiangling because I plan to open a restaurant here."

Guan Dazao guessed it early and said: "All according to Miss's orders."

Gu Mingzhu was satisfied with his straightforwardness, and said with a smile: "Uncle Guan is a straightforward person. Uncle Guan can draw up the recipe in a few days. As for the price, I will decide."

"Then it's settled!" Guan Dao said, "Where is Miss's restaurant going to open? Do you have any clues?"

"Getting ready to take a look."

"I'm also a half-expert in this area. If Miss is willing, it may be helpful to bring me along."

Gu Mingzhu smiled coquettishly: "Uncle Guan has helped me a lot."

Gu Mingzhu insisted on letting Guan Datong have her breakfast, and the two took Ah San with them, planning to go to Jiangling City for a while.

As the capital of the Li Kingdom, Jiangling is rich and rich, needless to say, most of the common people live in peace under the foot of the emperor.

In her previous life, she was already tired of these luxuriant things, but it was the first time for Ah San and Guan Da to come to Jiangling, so she couldn't help being a little curious.

As the sun was getting higher and higher, the three of them walked around all morning and rested in a tea house.

Ah San said: "Miss, there are quite a few places to resell, but the locations are not very good."

"Indeed." Guan Dao said.

Gu Mingzhu smiled and said, "I think the one on North Street just now is pretty good."

"North Street?" Ah San recalled for a moment, and said in surprise, "Miss, that place is the worst in the building we saw."

He didn't believe that Gu Mingzhu couldn't see it.

Gu Mingzhu said: "The location is not good, but there is a lake behind it, and I am very satisfied with the structure of the building."

"Can……"

"That's it!" Gu Mingzhu made a final decision.

Ah San and Guan Da looked at each other in blank dismay.

What should I do if I can't be persuaded?
Do it!

The owner of the restaurant is a middle-aged man in his 40s. When asked why, it turned out that the number of customers in the restaurant was decreasing day by day due to the location. In addition, he was not from Jiangling, so he made up his mind to resell the restaurant.

Ah San and the people in the restaurant talked about the resale price of 5000 taels to 500 taels. When they were about to agree on the payment of the money tomorrow, Gu Mingzhu, who had been sitting and drinking tea, took out a bank note and said with a smile: "Don't wait." Tomorrow, today can be done better."

It was also the first time that the boss paid for it immediately when he said he would buy it. He was stunned for a while, and then smiled and said: "Miss is a happy person!"

After finishing all the matters, the plaque was removed, and the three of them sat in the empty lobby.

"Miss..." Ah San said, "Is that how you bought this restaurant?"

"The land deeds are all in hand, what do you think?"

How rich!
Ah San gave Guan Da a thumbs up at the same time.

Gu Mingzhu glanced at the empty building, and said: "There are some problems with the decoration of this building. When I go back and draw a picture, you can rearrange according to it."

"Yes." Ah San said, "But most of the tables and chairs in this building are in good condition, so we can still have some expenses left."

Gu Mingzhu shook her head: "Change the tables and chairs too, otherwise the price will be too low."

Ah San had no choice but to say, "Since Miss said so, then I'll make a trip."

Guan Da dragged his chin, looked it over carefully, and asked: "Miss, have you thought of a name?"

"I've already thought about it."

The two looked at her expectantly.

Gu Mingzhu said: "Thirteen Gardens."

"Thirteen Gardens?" The two asked in unison.

Ah San asked, "Does this have any special meaning?"

"No."

Gu Mingzhu was quick to do things, and quickly decided on the name, and asked Ah San to cast a plaque. After such a busy life, it was already dark.

When I returned to the mansion, my brother had already arrived home and was working in the study.

Gu Mingzhu didn't bother him either, picked up a pen and started drawing drawings after taking a bath.

On the second day, Ah San brought an album: "Miss, here is an album of tables and chairs, see what you like."

Gu Mingzhu was scribbling carefully, when she heard the words, she raised her head, quickly put down the pen, took the booklet, flipped through a few pages, and quickly made up her mind: "Let's just do it, the money comes from me, don't let this matter get out of hand." Others know."

"Yes." Ah San quickly went to work.

As soon as he left, Chun'er hurried in on his back and said: "Miss, someone is asking to see you outside the door."

Just as Gu Mingzhu raised her pen, she stopped when she heard the words: "Who is it?"

"The three big shopkeepers of the Jiangling shop."

Gu Mingzhu frowned: "Who told them to come?"

"No one called. They said they wanted to report the situation of the store to the young lady."

"All three?"

Gu Mingzhu's eyes darkened, and she said coldly, "Just say I'm busy, see you."

Depressed, she simply threw away the pen.

The thirteenth garden is not a trivial matter, the family business also needs to be managed, and there are other things right now...

Just thinking about it, Yang Jiu, brother's bodyguard, came and brought a post: "Miss, this is a banquet post from the Wu family."

Gu Xiurong is now a military officer of the third rank, and he is still serving in the Emperor's Habayashi Army, so every banquet will definitely not miss him.

And my elder brother has just taken office, the Gu family must be considerate of these human etiquettes.

Gu Mingzhu completely lost his face, accepted his fate, and said, "I see."

She stared at the banquet poster for a while, thought for a while, picked up her pen again, and wrote a letter to Xiangbei.
