Chapter 181 Prince Zhuang Is Interested In My Family Affairs?
Soon, Gu Chen and others drove to the store location.
The store is located in the business district in the south of the city, and across the street is a grain store, owned by the man who beat the woman last time. The shop is more like a small attic. The first floor is used as a store, and the second floor can be used for living. There is also a large warehouse, kitchen and toilet behind the shop.
"Your Highness, where is this?"
Looking at the shop in front of him, Liu Yun walked up to Gu Chen and asked doubtfully.
Gu Chen said: "Weren't we worried about how to transport food before? Now it's quite suitable here, and we don't have to go out of the city."
Liu Yun's eyes lit up, "Your Highness means that everything will be shipped here by then!"
Nangong Yue heard the conversation between the two and couldn't help but ask: "What do you want to do with this shop!"
Although she is now under the control of others, she has truly earned this store. If the other party wants to do something nefarious, they should discuss it with her.
Gu Chen turned his head and glanced at Nangong Yue with an intriguing look. After a brief hesitation, he asked in a low voice, "You want to know?"
Nangong Yue frowned, "If you have anything to say, just say it. I don't like guessing riddles!"
"come here."
Nangong Yue was not afraid and took a step closer to Gu Chen.
Then, Gu Chen leaned down and briefly told Nangong Yue his plan.
Nangong Yue's eyes were startled and she looked at Gu Chen unexpectedly, "You want to steal food!"
Gu Chen didn't take it seriously, "I've done some research. Most of these grain shops in the county are owned by the magistrate of Qingshui County, and the rest are opened by people with connections like you. Instead of letting them sell grain at high prices, If you give it to the people, you might as well give it to me for disaster relief.”
Nangong Yue narrowed her eyes and cursed in her heart: "This Prince Zhuang is really insidious!"
If he opens a shop here, he will steal his house if he can't protect it! !
At this time, Gu Chen looked at Nangong Yue again and asked, "By the way, how many people did you bring this time?"
"what?!"
Nangong Yue looked at the other party warily, always feeling that the other party had some evil intentions.
Gu Chen smiled and said, "Tell me first how many people you brought?"
Nangong Yue hesitated for a moment, and then replied: "Fifty-six."
Gu Chen said: "It's almost time. When the time comes to take action, lend me your people first. Then I will steal the food and return it to you."
Nangong Yue was stunned and couldn't help but ask: "You want my people to steal food with you!"
Gu Chen nodded and said, "That's right, you shouldn't have any objections, right?"
Nangong Yue did not answer Gu Chen's question directly, but looked at the other party's mean smile. After a brief silence, she said: "I can lend you money, but you have to promise that you are not allowed to use it after returning to Kyoto." Reveal my story!"
"Can."
"etc."
Seeing that Gu Chen agreed so quickly, Nangong Yue was still a little worried and quickly added: "You have to give me a guarantee, otherwise I won't be able to trust you."
Gu Chen asked: "What guarantee do you want me to give you?"
Nangong Yue frowned, because she didn't know what could threaten the other party. But if there is no guarantee, she is afraid that the other party will immediately change his mind.
While Nangong Yue was thinking, her eyes suddenly noticed a purple sachet on Gu Chen's waist, which was almost the same as her own money bag. After a moment's hesitation, she pointed to the sachet and said, "Give me this sachet and I will lend it to you."
Seeing the sachet on his waist in the direction pointed by the other party, Gu Chen decisively refused and said, "No, I can't give you this. Please change it."
Nangong Yue also didn't expect the other party's rejection and asked: "Why not? Isn't it just a sachet? I will lend you all my people."
Gu Chen said: "He Yan helped me embroider this. I can't give it to you. Please make another condition."
Hearing Gu Chen's explanation, Nangong Yue's eyes moved and she paid more attention to the sachet. Then she spoke again: "Then give me the short knife you just gave me. If you don't abide by the agreement, I will definitely find a way to use it." I'll cut you with a short knife!"
Hearing the word "cut", Gu Chen glanced at the other party subconsciously, and after a little hesitation, he handed the short knife he carried to the other party.
Nangong Yue took the short knife and put it away.
After that, Gu Chen and her made a plan in the store, ready to start tonight.
....
At midnight.
Liu Yun and other guards and Nangong Yue's entourage all left the shop and drove their cars to several grain stores in the south of the city. Only Gu Chen and Nangong Yue were left in the shop.
In the room on the first floor, Nangong Yue was already a little sleepy, sitting lazily at the table. She gently rubbed her sleepy eyes, trying to keep herself awake.
Gu Chen glanced at the other party and reminded: "If you want to sleep, you can go upstairs to rest first. When everything is settled, I will take you back to the inn."
Liu Yun has been taking people out for half an hour, and he should be back soon.
After hearing the other party's reminder, Nangong Yue felt less sleepy and asked with a smile: "Prince Zhuang also cares about people, which is rare!"
Gu Chen ignored the other party's weirdness and asked: "Does Old Thirteen know about your visit to Huzhou this time?"
Nangong Yue smiled and asked, "Prince Zhuang wants to inquire about my family affairs?"
Seeing that the other party didn't say anything, Gu Chen didn't bother to ask again.
However, he guessed that Lao Shisan probably didn't know that the other party was coming to Huzhou because she was now helping the Prime Minister's Office sell grain.
To put it simply, although Nangong Yue is now the princess of Prince Yun's Mansion, her thoughts are definitely still in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the marriage is only the common interest of the two families.
As for what excuse the other party used to come, Gu Chen couldn't guess.
Of course, what he was also curious about was, could Lao Shisan surrender to this woman?
After all, in the original drama, she was a ruthless character who dared to send someone to seduce the prince.
Seeing Gu Chen's silence, Nangong Yue felt a little bored, but she didn't want to take the initiative to talk to him.
The scene became quiet again, and neither of them took the initiative to talk to anyone.
boom!
At this moment, the sound of horse hooves suddenly came to mind, and then Liu Yun rode back, followed by large cars one after another.
"came back!"
Hearing the noise, Gu Chen quickly stood up and walked out of the store.
Nangong Yue, who was following behind, saw the large trucks outside the store and couldn't help showing surprise, "So much food!!"
Looking at the carts of grain, Gu Chen didn't show much surprise and directly ordered: "Transport all the grain to the warehouse behind."
Everyone took the order and immediately unloaded the grain and transported it to the warehouse.
