Traveling through ancient times

Chapter 170 Liu Li as a Bodyguard

Li Huaming sent the jewelry box to the workshop, where the female workers fixed various pure-colored silks in the box, making the jewelry box look more high-end and classy!

Gu Dalian continued to move forward. Now Liu Li and Liu Daqiang, father and son, occasionally go hunting, and their income is not guaranteed!

Although this family knows right from wrong, they can't help but have a mother-in-law who is so unscrupulous!

In view of this, Gu Dalian wanted to ask them what they thought before making a decision!

Three adobe houses have been built in the yard, and the roofs are covered with tiles, so there is no need to worry about snow falling on the roofs in winter!

This was built by Gu Meihua and her daughter using the money they earned. The house is warm and the two original thatched houses have been used as a kitchen and storage room!

Gu Dalian came here only because she heard from Liu Meili that her father and brother were at home today!

"Uncle Liu, I want to ask what your and Brother Daqiang's plans are?"

Liu Li obviously didn't expect his former niece to ask this question, and didn't know how to answer for a moment:

"...I can't go to the mountains anytime soon, and I don't know what to do now!..."

Liu Daqiang is smarter than his father:

"Sister Dalian, do you have an idea when you come here today? Dad and I trust you. We will do whatever you tell us to do."

Gu Dalian: ...

In fact, it’s not Liu Daqiang’s fault for saying that. Because her mother and sister work for Gu Dalian’s family, their family life is getting better day by day!

My mother is watched over by my younger sister every day, and she doesn’t do anything naughty, so she lives a very comfortable life!

Sometimes when I buy some things to visit grandma and grandpa, we just sit for a while and then leave. We have become much more distant!

He firmly believed that following Gu Dalian, his life would become more and more prosperous!

"During this period of time, you have often come to my house and practiced martial arts with the Five Tigers. Now your martial arts skills are pretty good. I wonder if you are willing to go to the county town to be bodyguards?"

Liu Li was stunned: "Can we do it?"

"Uncle Liu, what are you talking about? When we were escaping from the famine in Yingdang Mountain, we killed wild wolves and evil men. Now, our martial arts are getting better and better, so why are you not confident?"

Liu Li smiled innocently: "That's right! These days are so comfortable that I almost forgot about the time when I was fleeing from famine!"

Liu Daqiang asked anxiously: "Can I go?"

"I'll go ask for you. After all, you're still a little young. If they don't accept you, we can make other plans!"

"I originally wanted to let you go to a private school, but you refused to do so. Even so, I won't force you. However, you still need to learn more words in your daily life, so as to avoid the loss of not knowing how to read in the future!"

"Don't worry, sister Dalian. A few days ago, you asked the teacher to teach the female workers to write for half an hour every morning. Meili gets up early every day to learn to write. She comes back in the evening and teaches me. Now I know quite a few words!"

"That's good, Uncle Liu, what do you think?"

Liu Li hesitated: "If we leave, I'm a little worried about your aunt and Meili being alone!"

"Dad, why are you worried? If we leave, we will have sister Dalian and the others to take care of us. What can happen?"

After hearing this, Gu Dalian realized that she had not considered it carefully enough. It was indeed dangerous to have no male child in the family!

This is not the socialist country of the previous life. In this era, there are too many social scums. It would be bad if the mother and daughter were targeted!

"How about this, I haven't gone to the escort agency to meet anyone yet, so only one of you two, father and son, can go, since there's a male at home!"

Liu Li nodded happily: "Okay, please help me, I will go there when the time comes, and let Daqiang take care of it at home!"

Gu Dalian agreed, and went back, with Hu Li driving her on the snow, and took some jewelry boxes to the jewelry store!

The plaque of the jewelry building has been hung and covered with red silk. The rebuilt building has four floors. The first floor is silver jewelry, the second floor is gold jewelry, the third floor is various jade articles, and the fourth floor is various coral and pearl jewelry!

After all, they had originally cleared out all the gold, silver and jade articles from the Wu family, and later on had them taken out and only let Hu Ge do the carving himself, engraving the lotus core logo on every piece of jewelry!

Gu Dalian wants the Lianrui brand to be well-known throughout the country of Dayong, and in the future, go beyond the borders and into the world!

There are twenty waiters in total on the four floors. They are not required to be beautiful, but they must be professional and everyone must have professional ethics!

The opening date has been chosen, which is December 1st. Gu Dalian specifically notified Wu Shi to come and unveil the plaque. Of course, billboards will also be placed in conspicuous places at various intersections!

A large colorful banner was put up, which read: "Lianrui Jewelry Shop, a unique shop in Shannan!"

"Lotus Jewelry, unique in craftsmanship, embellishes your beauty!"

"Lotus Core Jewelry is worth having!"

……

The overwhelming publicity has caused a sensation in the entire Shannan County. During this crucial period, the Lianrui brand has become a household name!

Lianrui Clothing Store is holding an event of giving away jewelry with every purchase. Rich people and daughters of government officials are all keeping an eye on the opening of the jewelry store!

Everyone is ready to make a move, even some concubines of wealthy families are trying to save as much private money as possible!

Everyone is proud to own a set of jewelry from Lianrui Jewelry Store!

Everything was ready for the jewelry store. Even Hu Ge and Hu Youming officially moved into the backyard of the jewelry building. Five apprentices followed suit and lived in a room with three bunk beds!

Qi Shanhu and his four brothers have all moved in. This is a real treasure house. Even Wu Haosan has been temporarily arranged to stay here!

Gu Dalian found that his business was growing bigger and bigger, but there were very few people available. He couldn't help but feel worried. Well, he decided to take it one step at a time!

Gu Dalian took some time to go to the Yuanfang Escort Agency. The person in charge was named Luo, and he had a generous and open personality. When he saw the jade pendant that Gu Dalian took out, he laughed:

"It turned out to be Miss Gu, the manager of our Yuanshan Escort Agency. She praised you like a flower. Now I think you are the fairy from Yaochi who has come down to earth!"

"Uncle Luo, you've made me so proud of yourself. If you want to praise me again, you'll have to prepare a rope to tie around my waist, or I'll fly up to the sky and not come down!"

Who doesn't like to be praised? Gu Dalian was no exception, she was in a good mood and the atmosphere of her conversation was particularly good!

"You are a good girl. With your personality, the person you recommend must be right. Ask him to get ready. There is a convoy going on and it will leave the day after tomorrow. If it is convenient for him, he can come earlier!"

"No problem, Uncle Luo, I'll go back and ask him to make preparations early. We'll meet at the entrance of the escort agency at dawn the day after tomorrow!"

After settling the matter, Gu Dalian and Qi Huli left the escort agency and prepared to return to Cuiyu Village!

The escort agency is not on the main street, but three miles away. There are still shops there, but the flow of people is not as heavy as on the main street!

After walking a few steps, Gu Dalian saw a little beggar of eight or nine years old, staring at the steamed buns shop in front of him, or to be more precise, the hot steamed buns!

The skinny little face makes the eyes look a little too big, and the head looks especially big, just like the match head on a match, which makes people worry!

"Little brother, what's your name? Are you hungry?"

The little beggar had a look of surprise on his dirty little face. He pursed his lips, said nothing, and just nodded!

"Boss, give me two meat buns!"

The shopkeeper who sells buns said with a smile:

"Girl, you really have a kind heart. This little beggar is dumb and always has to pay for copper coins. He comes to me to buy buns, but he can't bear to eat them himself. He buys the buns, puts them in his arms and runs away!"

Gu Dalian raised her eyebrows: This little beggar must have something going on!
