Chapter 230 Gu Fu is almost exposed
Gu Dajiang went to visit Shopkeeper Cheng and Shopkeeper Xu respectively.
Invite them to have lunch at Manager Cheng’s restaurant at noon.
"Hey, it's rare that Brother Gu is free today and still remembers to treat us to a meal. That's great, great!" Shopkeeper Liao, who met the two because they were traveling the same way, said with a smile.
"We have just come to Zesheng County to do business. We will have to rely on you brothers in the future!" Gu Dajiang said with a smile on his face and clasped his hands.
"Okay, okay! But just tell me if you need me." Shopkeeper Liao also responded with a smile.
"We first met in Weng County. Thanks to your family's care, we were able to come to the county and our whole family was able to escape the disaster. From now on, your affairs are my affairs. Don't be polite." Shopkeeper Xu also said.
"Brother Gu, you are being too modest. Nowadays, all the dignitaries, common people, and merchants in the county rely on the food in your shop for their livelihood. We should ask Brother Gu to take care of us!" Shopkeeper Cheng also said with a smile.
"Hey, each of you is more humble than me." Gu Dajiang smiled and shook his head with a helpless look.
Seeing his expression, several people burst into laughter. The atmosphere was very lively for a while.
After exchanging greetings, they took their seats one by one.
Gu Dajiang first thanked everyone for their support and care during this period, and then told another reason for the banquet.
"I invited everyone here this time for another reason, which is to say goodbye to everyone. I plan to build a shopping mall outside the valley next time I come."
"Brother Gu, aren't you going to stay in Zesheng County to run your business?" Shopkeeper Xu asked curiously.
"Well, there are still things to deal with at home, so it is enough to leave the manager of the family to run the business here." Gu Dajiang said.
"When is Brother Gu planning to come back?" asked Shopkeeper Cheng.
"I will come back after finishing my family affairs. After all, I still need to build a shopping mall."
Shopkeeper Cheng asked in confusion: "What is a shopping mall?"
Shopkeeper Xu continued, "Yes, I have never heard of this name!"
Shopkeeper Liao also echoed, "I guess it's a building that will make a sensation in the city. Brother Gu, why don't you tell us a little bit about it first."
Gu Dajiang nodded and said, "In fact, it is to gather all the department stores in the city in one place, making the building as prosperous as a street market. The buildings are connected, and the shops are lined up. There are treasures, clothing, utensils, food, etc. No matter who you are, you can buy the goods you need in it."
"In a building?!" Shopkeeper Liao repeated, while thinking about the feasibility in his mind.
"Yes." Gu Dajiang said with a smile.
The three of them shook their heads in unison and said, "How can this be accomplished? How can we squeeze so many categories of shops into one building?"
Several people felt that what Gu Dajiang said was undoubtedly a fantasy. It was impossible to achieve.
Gu Dajiang smiled but said nothing. Whether it is possible or not will be known after it is built in the future.
"We hope you will do us the honor of visiting our shopping mall at that time," said Gu Dajiang with a smile and a bow.
"No problem, no problem." Shopkeeper Liao responded with a fist salute.
"Of course! Of course!" The other two also responded, still unable to believe it in their hearts.
The two of them were thinking, one of theirs is an inn and the other is a restaurant, how can they operate in the same building?
No matter how much you think about it, you still have to agree to it.
They happily ate the meal and then went back home.
Miao also had lunch at Shopkeeper Mei's place.
Only Song Renjing was worried about Gu Fu being alone at home, so he went to Prince Li, gave him a brief explanation, and then returned to the shop.
Song Renjing was accustomed to using light skills when going in and out, and successfully avoided the sight of Shopkeeper Zhi.
He went straight to Gu Fu's door and said, "Fu'er, I'm back. Brother Jing will accompany you in whatever you want to do."
Song Renjing stood in front of Gu Fu's door and knocked.
But after talking for a long time, no one responded.
I listened carefully, but there was no sound of anyone breathing inside.
Song Renjing said to himself in confusion, "Didn't Sister Fu'er say she couldn't go out? Could it be that she has gone out?"
As he spoke, he pushed the door and found that it was locked from the inside.
Song Renjing was puzzled. Did he hear it wrong?
But no matter how I listened, there was still no human voice.
Song Renjing thought that he could go to the front yard to ask Shopkeeper Zhi, so he walked from the back yard to the front shop, but when he arrived, he found that Shopkeeper Zhi was entertaining guests, so he did not go up to disturb him.
I thought to myself, it seems that Sister Fuer has gone out, I should go back to my room and wait.
So Song Renjing opened his door and practiced calligraphy in the hall while waiting. He also kept an eye on the movements in Gu Fu's room next door.
They waited until Miao and Gu Dajiang came back after lunch.
Gu Fu, who was immersively painting in the space, was suddenly interrupted by Zhibao.
"Miss, the second master and the second mistress are back." Zhibao said.
"Oh. Okay," Gu Fu took a moment to come back to his senses.
I looked at the clock on the wall and found that it was already half past two.
He quickly put down the palette, stretched his body and said, "We have been in this space for so long! Let's get out too."
Having said that, he took Zhibao out of the space.
At the same time, Song Renjing, who was practicing calligraphy, suddenly heard some noise in the next room.
Two breathing sounds suddenly appeared.
Before he could react, he heard the sound of a door opening from Gu Fu's house next door.
"Zhibao, let's go. Uncle and aunt are back. Let's go out and get some exercise." Gu Fu said.
"I'm so tired after painting for so long. Zhibao, please carry me away." Gu Fu said to Zhibao in a soft voice.
"Yes, Miss." Zhibao obediently stepped forward, picked up Gu Fu, and walked towards the stairs.
To get to the stairs, they had to pass by Song Renjing's door. When the master and servant passed by, they saw Song Renjing holding a brush and staring at the table.
When their eyes met, Song Renjing's shock was suppressed a little hastily. Gu Fu also tried hard to control his eyes from widening.
I complained in my heart: "How long has it been since Brother Jing came back? Intelligent robots can be unreliable sometimes! I guess he didn't find anything."
"Brother Jing, how long have you been back?" Gu Fu asked first.
"Hehe, I just came back not long ago." Song Renjing answered quickly with some embarrassment and guilt.
"Oh." Gu Fu looked at the pile of manuscripts on the table and the half-eaten plate of dessert, and nodded seriously.
"Did Sister Fuer go out? I went to your room and knocked on the door but no one answered, haha." After asking, Song Renjing wanted to cover his mouth.
If she had gone out, I would have been able to see it myself. Sister Fu'er clearly hadn't gone out.
Gu Fu was embarrassed for a moment when he heard this, mainly because he didn't know when Song Renjing would come back. After thinking for a while, he said, "Fuer has been too tired recently. He must have slept too deeply. Zhibao also fell asleep. So he didn't hear Brother Jing knocking on the door."
