Gu Yuzhi quietly talked to Wen Shu at the temporary station, but the unmarried Guard Zhang, Guard Qi and others soon noticed that he was missing.

In particular, Guard Zhang was more sensitive. He patted his head and secretly shouted: "Oops!"

Most of the entourage who came to Mobei with His Highness were married, and their wives and children all came with them, but Concubine Taixian was unable to come.

At such a festive moment, His Highness secretly hid it. He must have been touched by the situation.

Without thinking, Guard Zhang greeted the escort and walked to Gu Yuzhi's room.

"Your Highness!" Guard Zhang stood at the door and said loudly, "Your Highness, Concubine Shu and other empresses have brought you other gifts. Do you want to see them now?"

Gu Yuzhi wiped tears from his hands, jumped off the chair, trotted to the door, and said in a hoarse voice: "You have to see what you want to see, Guard Zhang, what is it?"

Guard Zhang quickly raised his eyes to look at Gu Yuzhi and saw that his eyes were indeed red. Not only that, even the tip of his nose was red.

He sighed in his heart, but with a smile on his face, he waved to the people behind him and saw two strangers walking over.

Guard Zhang said: Your Highness, these two people are gifts from Concubine Shu to you. They are very famous craftsmen in the jewelry business. "

As he spoke, he handed over a box: "Your Highness, look at this. This is also given to you by Concubine Shu. It is a written deed for several mines."

Gu Yuzhi took the deeds in a daze and opened them. He saw that these deeds were all signed with names.

With this written deed, Gu Yuzhi's jewelry store can purchase raw materials directly from their family's mine, reducing the cost of their jewelry store.

Gu Yuzhi didn't expect that Shu Fei's sister-in-law would give him such a big gift. He was stunned for a moment and couldn't even think about the sad things before.

The two craftsmen came forward and knelt down respectfully: "Young Zuo Zhu and Dong Xiang, please see His Highness King Wen. Your Highness King Wen is a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old."

"Little Zuo Zhu is better at gold and silver jewelry."

"The young Dong Xiang is good at the inlay craftsmanship of pearls, jade and other jewelry."

Gu Yuzhi didn't understand very well, but he also knew that these two people should have a comprehensive knowledge, so he asked them to stand up and wait aside.

Guard Zhang also took out other gifts. He looked at them one by one, and finally settled on the small box in Guard Zhang's hand. When he opened it, he saw that it was made of a moist and transparent jade ruyi. .

Underneath Yu Ruyi were letters from his mother and concubine.

Gu Yu knew that he could not read anything else and hurriedly unfolded the letter. Only then did he realize that the Ruyi jade gift given by his mother-in-law had been consecrated by the abbot of the Guo Temple. It could not only protect him and put it beside his pillow, but also clear his mind and purpose. effect.

Gu Yuzhi pinched Yu Ruyi and puffed up his face: "Guard Zhang, do you know if it would be troublesome for my mother to give me this Yu Ruyi?"

He had heard the name of the abbot of the Guosi Temple before, and naturally knew that the things he had personally consecrated were hard to find outside the palace. There were also rumors that he would not consecrate them easily!

How did Guard Zhang know these details? He could only shake his head and said: "I don't know. But I think that His Highness is a prince who has made great contributions to the people of Sang Dynasty. If the abbot of the national temple knew that Concubine Taixian requested this jade Ruyi for His Highness, he would You will be filled with joy.”

Did Gu Yu know that because of sweet potatoes and potatoes, his name as King Wen had spread throughout the Sang Dynasty?

Therefore, he could not believe what Guard Zhang said that the abbot of the National Temple was full of joy.

But after he touched the jade Ruyi repeatedly, he really believed that his mother and concubine were not in trouble in the palace.

After studying with Shopkeeper Wen for so long, Gu Yuzhi was still able to distinguish the texture of this jade Ruyi. He had never owned jade of this quality when he was in the palace.

From a young age, it can be seen that the life of the mother-in-law in the palace will not be bad.

It was only then that a real smile appeared on Gu Yuzhi's face, and he couldn't put it down and touched it again and again: "My mother-in-law gave me this jade Ruyi, and I don't know if she still has it." Just as Guard Zhang was about to speak, Seeing Gu Yuzhi raising his head, he said proudly: "It doesn't matter if I don't have one, I am now a man from the mine."

Guard Zhang nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, your highness is right. You have a jade mine now, and from now on, the jewelry of Concubine Taixian and the empresses in the harem will depend on you."

This was originally just a casual remark that Guard Zhang wanted to divert Gu Yuzhi's attention, but Gu Yuzhi's eyes lit up and he listened!

He turned to look at the two craftsmen: "Can you design jewelry? Can you make it yourself? Then will you accept apprentices?"

After having so many industries, Gu Yuzhi naturally knew that if a jewelry shop wanted to operate, what it needed most was such professional craftsmen.

But if the jewelry store only has these two craftsmen, that won’t work.

So he wanted to ask these two people if they had any apprentices. If so, Guard Shen could arrange to recruit them.

If you don't bring...

Gu Yuzhi thought with a proud face, then he would have to recruit people from other places!

Zuo Zhu and Dong Xiang quickly knelt down again.

When they came to Mobei, the shopkeeper said that Concubine Shu valued His Highness King Wen very much, and asked them not to be arrogant just because they knew some craftsmanship, and to respect King Wen more.

They were filled with anxiety, fearing that they would become arrogant upon hearing that His Highness was favored...

But they didn't expect that their worries would dissipate unconsciously after hearing King Wen's childish but methodical voice.

Zuo Zhu rested his head tightly on the back of his hand and said respectfully: "Go back to your highness to take care of your apprentice."

Dong Xiang also nodded repeatedly: "The same goes for Xiao Xiao. Xiao Xiao and Zuo Zhu also brought apprentices in the capital. This time when they came to Mobei, they each brought two apprentices."

However, the apprentices they brought over were all new to the industry and were not yet qualified to start on their own.

But Gu Yuzhi didn't care about these.

When he heard the two of them saying that they would take apprentices, his eyes lit up, he clenched his fists and shouted, "Sister-in-law Shu Fei is such a good person!"

He made an upward gesture with the palm of his hand pointing upward: "Get up quickly."

After the two of them stood respectfully, he continued: "The jewelry store is not open yet, so you don't have to go to work for the time being. You can go to our mine to have a look first, and then choose an apprentice."

He is a rich man now, so he doesn't need to be so anxious about opening a jewelry store.

Zuo Zhu and Dong Xiang nodded repeatedly: "Yes, I will comply with His Highness's arrangements."

After the two men retreated, Guard Zhang continued: "The Concubine Xian sent three thousand taels of gold to His Highness, and I have already put it in the butler's treasury."

In Xie Changshi's absence, the housekeeper took on the heavy responsibility of looking after the warehouse.

It was precisely because Guard Zhang sent the money back in advance and knew that Gu Yuzhi was not in Changzhou that he took Xie Changshi and other family members directly to Xinliang.

It was really too late yesterday...
