Chapter 88 Getting ready to leave

After the three of them left this place, they went straight to the Wo Ning Building where Yin Yi and the others were. Yin Yi and the others quickly surrounded them and said, "Xian girl, how is it? Did they bully you?"

Due to Gu Xixian's repeated requests, Yin Yi and the others were no longer so restrained and simply called the Gu siblings "Xian girl" and "Hao brother".

Although the Thirteen Eagle Guards didn't say anything, they looked over with concern.

"Uncle Yi, don't mention it. Those people are really... terrible." Yin Yang felt that there was no adjective to use and could only use the word "terrible" to describe it.

"Being bullied?" This time it was Gu Di who spoke, his stern face became even colder. Although he belonged to a shared resource, his branch was also from the Gu family. Even if he did not participate in any other affairs of the Gu family, it was undeniable that he was a member of the Gu family.

Gu Xixian shook her head. She glanced at the Thirteen Eagle Guards and asked, "Uncle Di, is Ning Anwei the Gu family's private guard?"

This is very important, she must confirm it again, her cheap ancestor only mentioned in the letter that people should be led by a command, but there was no exact definition.

Gu nodded: "At the beginning, the ancestor emperor promised that each of the Thirteen Guardians could have a private guard of less than a thousand people. Ning'an Guard is the Gu family's private guard."

"Okay, I got it. Thank you, Uncle Di." Gu Xixian narrowed her eyes, and she had a plan in mind. She didn't really give up Ning Anwei completely. Even if she couldn't use him as a personal guard, she could put him somewhere else to make the best use of him. Otherwise, why would she keep using the resources of the Gu family without paying any price? There aren't that many free lunches in the world.

"Do you need us to take action?" Gu Di asked. After so many years, his Gu family finally produced two good talents, and they were not here to be bullied.

Gu Xixian was grateful in his heart, but shook his head and said, "No, I can handle it. When I can't handle it, we will ask Uncle Di to get it back for us."

"Okay." Along the way, Gu Di got to know the brother and sister a lot. He liked them very much in his heart, but he was not good at expressing himself.

"Uncle Tian, ​​Uncle Yi, you can go for a walk on the street today to see if there are any local specialties and buy some to take back. You should always bring some small gifts for your family when you go out. We will leave here early tomorrow morning." Gu Xixian made up his mind and informed everyone of the upcoming itinerary in advance.

"Okay." Everyone was smart and agreed immediately.

Yin Wei and Ying Wei each left half of their men to protect Gu Xixian and his sister, and the rest went out. Yin Yang also followed them to join in the fun.

The brother and sister returned to the room. Gu Xihao stood by the window, frowning slightly: "Sister, what are you going to do?"

He didn't think that his sister would really abandon him, Ning Anwei. She was not someone who would give up easily.

"My brother is the one who understands me best." Gu Xixian flattered him lightly before saying, "Some people have lived a comfortable life for too long and will always forget who they are. We must make them reflect on themselves and recognize who they are."

Don't say that people who grew up under the red flag shouldn't have such deep class concepts. There is a saying that goes "When in Rome, do as the Romans do." Being a maverick doesn't mean you are different from others. Being unable to integrate into the current society only means that you don't have the ability to survive.

"That's right." Gu Xihao agreed: "What is private security? It is purely a form of personal wealth. It's not a good habit to be picky."

"That's right, brother." Gu Xixian pulled the strings in the room and called the waiter to bring some writing brushes, ink, paper and inkstone. Then he sat down, picked up the brush and wrote three pages before stopping.

"Brother, how about this?" She handed over what she had written. "If they can figure it out, they will naturally come to us. If they read this and are still indifferent, then we can only say that our ancestors made a useless move."

"It's decided." Gu Xihao looked at his sister in admiration. This little brain of his was really useful. Even if he were to do it, he wouldn't necessarily be able to do it better than this. "Let's go out for a walk. It's a rare trip to Northern Xinjiang, so we can't return empty-handed."

Gu Xixian folded the paper, put it in an envelope, stuffed it into his bag, and then took his brother to go shopping happily. He looked completely carefree and happy.

Shopkeeper Liao really couldn't figure out what these two were thinking. He came back to guard the store after Wuguan, and he didn't know what the next result would be. He saw them come back with gloomy faces, and now he saw them go out happily and greet him. He could only give a mechanical smile.

"Brother, Kashgar is worthy of being the safest city in Northern Xinjiang. Look at the flow of people and its prosperity, it is not much worse than the capital. There are countless rare things." Gu Xixian felt that his eyes were about to be blinded by the dazzling array of things on the streets.

Gu Xihao's usually mature face also showed joy, and he praised: "What a great place to hunt for novelties."

"Brother, look." Gu Xixian pointed and said, "All the things produced by our family are coming here."

Because they were still a little far away, the stall owner didn't hear her words, but seeing her expression seemed to be talking about her own products, he quickly raised his voice and greeted her:

"My dear, come and have a look. These are all good things from Shangjing City."

Gu Xixian took her brother to the stall. It turned out that most of the products were from their family. The stall was full of preserved eggs and sweet potato products. She pointed at the preserved eggs and asked curiously, "How much is this?"

The young man introduced enthusiastically: "Ah, young lady, you have a good eye. This is a rare thing in Shangjing City, called Songhua Egg, a genuine royal product. Three taels of silver for two. Although the price is not cheap, it is special."

Then he introduced to them in detail the peculiarity of preserved eggs.

Gu Xixian was shocked. She had originally set the price of one tael of silver for each preserved egg, which was a route of rare goods being sold at a high price. If it were in modern times, this price would either be criticized by consumers or fined by the industrial and commercial authorities. What is this called? This is called exorbitant profits, or huge profits. No matter how cunning a businessman is, he can't be so shameless as her. So, she later took advantage of the situation with Manager Qin and pushed it out. Because if this continued, she would be unable to bear it herself. After the royal family took over, after calculating the cost, the price was lowered to 200 coins per egg. Who knew that in this northern border, the price of this product was still so high.

She couldn't help but ask, "Shopkeeper, isn't this just food? No matter how delicious it is, can it really be dragon meat? Your price is too scary, is anyone buying it?"

The young man was not angry, but smiled and said: "Young lady, you don't know, this thing is a food, but it is also a food with cultural connotations. You can't buy a large amount, but it's okay for each person to buy one or two to try."

Well, she felt that the hole she had dug was a bit too big, and she felt very reluctant. But at the same time, it also showed that there were more rich people in ancient times than she imagined, and their consumption level was also better than she imagined.

In view of the young man's enthusiasm, the two symbolically bought a bag of dried sweet potatoes and left.
