Chapter 268
Gong Changji had people keep asking the boatman at the helm about the speed of sailing, and if he could go ashore in the afternoon, he would go ashore for lunch, and if he couldn't, he would deal with it on board.

The experienced old boatman repeatedly promised that at the current sailing speed, he would go ashore no later than noon, so Bai Kou, who was sitting in the room, received the task, and the young masters were going ashore for lunch.

Bai Kou wanted to admire her foresight. She asked the kitchen handymen to set off early with the supplies. The kitchen should be set up in the past few days, otherwise they would have to drink the northwest wind when they arrived at the camp.

Gu Yun was tired from playing cards with others, and wanted to take a rest when he came back. He saw that the room was clean and tidy. All the parcels that were unwrapped after boarding the boat yesterday had been repacked, and they were just waiting to land.

Bai Kou guarded the steaming tea stove, wrote and drew on the notepad, and continued to finish what was left unfinished last night.

Gu Yun squatted in front of the luggage and found Bai Kou's rucksack, took out a pack of finger cakes from it, and poured himself a cup of tea, then sat next to Bai Kou, sipping tea and cakes to entertain himself.

After a while, Huang Bin knocked on the door again, Gu Yun just opened the door and came in as soon as he answered.

"My place is too messy, let me sit here..."

Looking at the tidy room, Huang Bin lost his voice for a moment, walked in silently, and closed the door behind his back.

"Brother Yun, your place is really clean." Huang Bin sincerely sighed.

"Of course, you know why I only bring Bai Kou alone? Her picking ability is a must-have talent for home travel."

"I totally agree."

Huang Bin walked over, took a biscuit from Gu Yun's hand and ate it, his eyes caught on to what Bai Kou had written, but when he wanted to take a closer look, Gu Yun lifted him away.

"Hey, hey, take care of your eyes, don't blindly read my business secrets."

"As for it, as for it, I can't let go of business when I'm away from home."

"Do you know how much I spent for Winter Hunting? If I don't earn it back sooner, how will I have money to spend next year?"

"If your son is so poor, why should I, the youngest son, have to beg for food?"

"To tell you the truth, I'm really poor. I just wait for the annual grain and annual salary to be distributed to the people below as annual rewards."

"Really? It's not such an exaggeration, is it?"

"No exaggeration, Master Bin."

Bai Kou closed the notebook, raised her head and interrupted.

"Really poor? Didn't make any money from the business?" Huang Bin didn't believe his cousin's nonsense, but believed in Bai Kou more.

"The tool for paper soap is extra expenses. I haven't earned back the capital yet. The little profits I made from these few businesses have been spent after changing hands. Now I just maintain no debt."

"Did you hear that? I'm not the chief manager and the shopkeeper. If she says she's poor, she's really poor."

Huang Bin took another biscuit from Gu Yun's hand, crunched it and swallowed it.

"The devil will believe that you are really poor!"

"Why don't you believe it?"

"You have no money now, I believe, but with your riding and shooting skills, and Bai Kou's cooking skills, you two can't make money during the seven days of winter hunting? When I participated in winter hunting for the first time, I didn't know anything. A poor student from a poor family?"

"You don't understand this. The bounty earned by Dongshou is private money, which can be used to spend by yourself or continue to invest in business. You know that my next plan is to open the Xianbugou head office , How much does it cost, think about it? Even if I earn bounty money, I don’t dare to spend it recklessly, so overall I’m still poor.”

"If you are so poor, won't you be asked to go out to eat in the future?"

"You don't have to call me for those boring dinners, just say that I can't call out because I don't have money."

"People will say they don't want your treat again."

"Shouldn't I invite you back after eating someone's meal?"

"That's right. Well, as long as you don't mind being called poor."

"What do I care about? I don't have the time to control other people's opinions now."

"It's changed. As soon as you start this business, people change. It's not as fun as before."

"I have grown up, I am not a child anymore, and you will be like me in a few years."

"Growing up is so boring, I don't want to grow up." Huang Bin pouted.

"That won't work, Master Bin, you can't say unkind words." Bai Kou made a cup of tea for Huang Bin and put it on a corner of the tea table.

"Why is this unlucky?" Huang Bin was still not convinced.

"A child who died young is said to never grow up."

"Bah, bah, bah!" Huang Bin jumped up immediately, clasped his hands together and bowed to the top of his head, "Tongyan Wuji! Tongyan Wuji!"

"Stop arguing here, go and see if they want to come and sit down for a while, so as not to be annoyed by seeing yourself as a servant."

Huang Bin snapped his fingers, opened the door and ran away.

Bai Kou got up and took the water bag to fill the kettle with water, and continued to boil water to make tea.

Not long after, a group of young masters poured into Gu Yun's cabin. Seeing the packed luggage and tidy room, they felt envious and jealous. Even Gu Xu and Gu Jing sincerely praised them.

"It's really worth comparing things with goods, and comparing people with others. They are all maidservants. Let's see what level Bai Kou is, and what level are my girls." Gong Changji kept tsk-tsk while holding a teacup.

"Your girl is not bad, but mine is about to start a fight. I don't have any rules in my heart. One puts away things, and the other yells about throwing them away. Do you think it's annoying?" He Jiagang shook his head and sighed.

"Girls have to re-tune well. Look at Mingzhi and Bai Kou. There are only a few packages for the two of them. Do you want to count how many packages my girls have brought? I told them to pack some unimportant ones. Let's go with the boat first, we will set off with a small amount of luggage, but they don't want to, I will see how many porters will leave my cabin later." Huang Bin's uncle and cousin Lu Zou complained a bit.

"Okay, okay, don't complain, the girls rarely take a long trip, it is inevitable that they are not thoughtful, just practice for a few days."

Gu Yun clapped his hands and acted as a peacemaker, telling everyone to sit down, drink tea and chat, and wait for the boat to dock.

Bai Kou opened his rucksack, distributed the snacks he carried with everyone, and then watched the tea stove to listen to their bragging.

The boat was getting slower and slower, and it had already entered the water branch where the pier was, and the voices in the corridor became more and more noisy. The maids called the entourage below to help carry the luggage.

Bai Kou had to go out and bring the three of Lu Doudou into the cabin. When the ship docked later, there were so many people in a mess, the three girls should not make mistakes and get hurt.

Seeing that the room was full of young masters from rich backgrounds, Lu Doudou and the others did not dare to show their anger. They put their luggage behind the corner and squeezed next to Bai Kou in front of the tea table.

In order to calm their nervousness, Bai Kou talked about lunch with them for a while and assigned them various errands, which diverted their attention.

When the young masters heard the excitement, they interrupted and teased them to talk, which made the girls nervous again. Qiqi Ai Ai couldn't speak a complete sentence, and Lu Doudou, who was the most eloquent, behaved like a cat. Just one sentence over and over again.

"We listen to Bai Guan, and we can do whatever she says."
