Chapter 1053 Unpredictable Mind

In the matter of the textile guild, in the end, Gu Yun joined the guild in the name of the representative of all shareholders. After all, he has the status of an imperial merchant, and in order to attract him to join the guild, the guild agreed to give him special discounts on lint and dyes. After discussing with Bai Kou, he reluctantly joined the Textile Guild, but he was just an ordinary member and didn't hold any position. He was too busy with the affairs of the Imperial Academy.

Now that Bai Kou is on the rise, the textile guild can only lower its figure. The new president elected is a gentle and good-natured old man who just let Gu Yun do his best. The old imperial merchants in the guild only have a one-year probationary period now. , They couldn't take care of themselves, the rest were small businessmen, without anyone who could check and balance Gu Yun, they could only let him do whatever he wanted.

Entering the guild requires all kinds of entertainment. Both Gu Yun and Bai Kou are people who don't have time to spend on banquets, but if they don't attend the banquet, they will inevitably be criticized as being too disrespectful to the guild. Therefore, Wei Qian Invite an uncle from the clan. The talent of the members of the Wei family to drink like water is amazing. After drinking such strong liquor as saber wine, it is as if they have not drunk it. There is this uncle who is full-time for entertainment. On behalf of paying attention to the various news in the guild, everyone is relieved.

The new pattern of the textile industry in the capital took shape. Bai Kou opened his mouth wide and ate a lot of lint and dyes. Shi Tianmin, who started the dye business, then made a few sums of money. Although it was a drop in the bucket compared to his family's previous income, now Every penny of the money he got was his hard work, so the feeling in his heart was naturally very different. He happily asked Gu Yun out to celebrate. It was a set of noodles in an ordinary restaurant. still.

Seeing that her brother and Gu Yun are still good buddies, Shi Tianqi was overjoyed in her heart, and listened intently to her brother talking about drinking with Gu Yun, but when she heard the name Bai Kou, she felt uneasy.

At the beginning, she obeyed her grandmother's order and sent people to sneak into Bai Kou's house to poison and assassinate her but failed. She never told anyone about it. I don't know how Bai Kou escaped this catastrophe. Anyway, she didn't yell that someone wanted to kill her.

Grandma didn't say anything at the time, she just said that she would let it go, thinking that although Bai Kou didn't yell, she must have made stricter precautionary preparations. This failure will not touch her in the short term, and she will wait until the end of the year.

Shi Tianqi didn't tell the truth to her grandma. If none of the people she sent out came back, she knew that something must have happened. She had been anxiously waiting for the palace to settle accounts with her, but there was no movement. Only Bai Kou came to provoke her. With unprecedented strength, he became a cutting-edge player in the textile industry in Beijing.

Bai Kou is too capable, the palace will not allow her to have accidents, Shi Tianqi guesses that she is safe and sound so far, probably the palace still has the idea of ​​calming things down, after all, if it is made public, the harem concubine ordered the assassination of a commoner woman outside the palace, how ugly scandal.

Although thinking this way can make Shi Tianqi feel at ease, as long as she thinks that the palace has been holding back, she still can't help feeling uneasy. This is a sharp sword hanging above her head. I don't know when the rope will break and the sword will fall. Killing and hurting people made her dare not hear Bai Kou's name now, and her heart would jump every time she heard it. This kind of pain can only be hidden in her heart, and she dare not tell anyone.

Shi Tianqi suppressed the discomfort in his heart, and listened intently to his brother telling her the interesting story about drinking with Gu Yun tonight, and heard him say that the matter of the textile industry has come to an end for the time being, and facing the approaching summer, the double fight begins, Bai Kou Shareholders like Gu Yun are going to the farm to supervise the harvesting and planting, and Princess Jingyun and the emperor's grandson are also going. The palace is not afraid of heatstroke for the siblings, and has already agreed.

The once-a-year double robbing is a major event in farming. Shi Tianqi remembered that his brother and sister had never seen it once, but now he wanted to see this scene but had no chance. Their farm shares were transferred to Bai Kou, and Bai Kou took The farm is operating very well, and I believe shareholders will have a good year at the end of the year.

Imagining the scene of Gu Yun sweating profusely in the farmland with a scythe under the scorching sun, Shi Tianqi felt hot eyes and sour nose. She really wanted to stand by Gu Yun's side once, so much, so much.

Shi Tianmin looked at his younger sister's face and remained silent. He only talked about interesting things related to Gu Yun. God destined Shi Tianqi and Gu Yun to have no relationship, and it would be helpless for anyone else.

When the interesting things were finally finished, Shi Tianqi was about to resign after listening to his brother's narration, when he remembered another thing.

"Brother, I received a letter from uncle Jialingyun's cousin today."

"Huh? Does she need you for something?"

"Actually, I was looking for you."

"Then why don't you write to me directly?"

"Excuse me, it's better to tell me."

"What does she want to ask?"

"I want to ask if we can bring her sister to do our current dye business."

"Why? Uncle was just relegated to be the king of the county. The situation of our family is much better. Although the two of them have changed from the princess to the county head, they still have enough to eat and drink. Do they need to come forward to do business?"

"The two of them are the elder sisters. The younger brothers are so young and unreliable. We can only rely on them to revive the family business. Although my uncle is demoted to the county king, he still has enough food and drink, but it is far worse than before."

"How did they know we were in the dye business?"

"A few days ago they came to play at home, and you were not at home, talking about the current livelihood of the family, mother accidentally said."

"What a lot."

"Brother, don't blame your mother. If it's not easy to take them to do business, I'll write back to them tomorrow."

"This business is done with Gu Yun. You also know what they think about Gu Yun. If you take them into business, can you guarantee that they will give up on Gu Yun?"

"Brother, they can't see Gu Yun. Gu Yun is in the Hanlin Academy every day, and Bai Kou takes care of the business alone. The two of them have no friendship with Bai Kou. The business belongs to the business, so they can still do it."

"But the two of them don't know how to do business! The pride of the clan women, they never know what it means to put their heads down and pretend to be grandchildren. I didn't make it this far because I was taken care of by Gu Yun. Will Bai Kou take care of our two cousins? They There is no friendship between them! They also have ambitions for Gu Yun, will they give Bai Kou a good look?"

"Brother, can't you? They should be thinking about reviving the family business now, and they shouldn't think so much."

"Did they tell you?"

"Not really." Shi Tianqi shook his head, "Then how about doing business?"

Shi Tianmin thought for a moment, then shook his head and sighed.

"Let's go back, let's just say that we are just starting our business now, and we haven't stepped into the right track yet. The output is low and the risk is high. It's not time to bring others to make a fortune. Our two cousins ​​are not engaged. What are they thinking? We don't know, I have to tell Gu Yun to be on guard, the two sisters hit a wall with us, I don't know if they will do something else."

"With the disease that my uncle brought home, who do the two sisters want to marry in this life? Who doesn't know that heart disease can recur?"

"Gu Yun is my only good buddy, the two sisters cannot be given any chance to get close to Gu Yun."

"Well, for the sake of Gu Yun, I have to give up the sisterhood."

Shi Tianqi made up his mind, resigned from his brother and went back to his house to write letters.
