In ancient times, she gave birth to seven daughters and was divorced by her husband's family.

"You really forgot your mother after you got married! Bai Lu isn't even your wife yet, yet you keep sticking with her."

"Mom knows that you have always blamed me for breaking you two up... If I hadn't interfered, I'm afraid you two would have been together a long time ago."

"I watched Bailu grow up, too. She and you have known each other for such a long time. Even though you two don't love each other, you still have feelings for each other... It's all my fault!! Woo woo..."

"But how could you do this to me? I'm just worried about you."

Gu Liang's face suddenly turned green!

He scolded in a low voice: "Mother, what nonsense are you talking about? What do you mean you have feelings for me... I have always been fond of Lady Bai. But Lady Bai has never responded to me!"

Gu Liang curled up a cold smile, and under Zhao Cuicui's surprised gaze, he spoke to Zhao Cuicui word by word.

"You have to know that it was always White Snake who didn't like me, not that we were attracted to each other. You are trying to separate us!"

"It's me who's been dreaming about White Lady all along!!"

"You, are also dreaming there!!"

"You think your son is such a powerful nobleman, so talented in both civil and military affairs? Now, how can White Snake be interested in a poor man like me?!!"

"...I am just an ordinary scholar, why would Lady White fall for me?!"

"You have to know that she doesn't care about the generals in the court, the wealthy businessmen around her, and the high-ranking officials..."

He murmured, "Would you please wake up!"

"You know, I, your son, am not as good as you think! White Snake... is much better than we think..."

"!!!"

Zhao Cuicui was very surprised to hear this.

Zhao Cuicui was shocked and angry, and said to Gu Liang: "How can you say that about yourself?! Son, why does Bai Lu look down on you?!"

"You are the most special. In my heart, you are the best!"

"You are my mother. In your heart, I am of course your best son."

Gu Liang interrupted Zhao Cuicui impatiently and said to her sincerely, "I respect you because you are my mother. Even if you are not my biological mother, I still respect you, like you, and tolerate you!"

"But others are not..."

"Sometimes your ideas are wrong, so don't impose them on others. It will cause trouble for others, okay?! Mom!"

Gu Liang was really tired.

I have been looking at the account books for a whole day and my vision is going dark.

"..."

When Zhao Cuicui saw Gu Liang’s pale face, she couldn’t describe the feeling in her heart. She felt that many things had changed since the appearance of Bailu.

After the arrival of Bailu, their family's life has indeed become better and better.

......But with Bai Lu, Gu Liang also forgot about his mother.

Zhao Cuicui was filled with hatred and jealousy in her heart, but after listening to what Gu Liang said, she softened her tone and spoke to Gu Liang.

"Okay, then my good son... Mommy won't look for Bai Lu anymore. Let's go home first."

"I listen to you!"

Let’s go find her later, otherwise my son will definitely be upset and will think too much about studying.

Thinking of this, Zhao Cuicui apologized to the Qingzhou prefect and hurriedly took her son back.

Looking at their backs, the Qingzhou prefect frowned, subconsciously thinking that they might come back to make trouble later.

After thinking for a while, the Qingzhou governor said to the housekeeper beside him: "Go over there tomorrow to inform Lady Bai and tell her about Zhao Cuicui."

"Also, tell Nanxing to go and play with Gu Liang whenever he wants these two days, and send his mother back to the Qingzhou Bailudong Academy where she came from, saying that it is more suitable for her to live there in her old age."

If the environment here is not very good, and there are some mosquitoes or something in the inn...

Zhao Cuicui was not used to it, but she would not take the initiative to ask the Qingzhou prefect to change places.

At that time, Zhao Cuicui would naturally be forced back to the Bai Lu Dong Academy.

"..."

The next day, Bai Lu got up very early in the morning. She looked tired, but she had to go to the store to look after it later.

However, you can catch up on some sleep in the store.

You are the boss, you can sleep in as much time as you want.

In this life, I am finally not a hard-working worker anymore.

Bai Lu smiled and looked much happier.

Moreover, they spent so much time clearing the accounts last night and finally calculated the net profit.

Bai Qingze and his team calculated the net profit to be 1 taels of silver a day, but Bai Lu himself calculated the net profit to be only two taels of silver a day.

This is all thanks to the fact that I sell a lot of luxury goods, as well as some useless pearls, crystals, and fake plastic gems...

It really makes a lot of money.

Bai Lu felt happy when she thought about how so many things could make so much money.

However, Bai Lu knew in her heart that it was impossible to sell so much silver every day.

More than 2 taels of silver in one day was simply incredible.

I guess it’s only in these few days of opening that so much money will be sold. After all, luxury goods are not bought by people all the time.

Such an expensive item may only be purchased occasionally in the future.

But even so, Bai Lu roughly estimated that after the opening boom was over, these four stores in Qingzhou City would bring him an income of around 4 taels of silver every month.

And there are other shops in Qingzhou.

If you calculate it, if these shops in Qingzhou are making normal profits without losses, they would make about two million taels a year! !

For the outside...

I only thought I would make a profit of about 50 taels.

But even if it is 50 taels, it is still a huge amount.

When the Qingzhou prefect and his friends did the math, they couldn't help but feel envious.

Of course, a lot of these profits were invested by others, such as the Queen Mother, several of his daughters, and some people in Qingzhou...

Have to give it back to them.

If we deduct some of my own investments and subtract a little from the 200 million taels, it would be around to million taels.

But even these are already very good.

You know, to earn 1.6 or 70 million taels a year, what kind of business is this? !

Bai Lu shook his head and sighed. If he continued at this rate, he would be able to become the richest man in Qingzhou in just one or two years.

But not necessarily...

She also didn't know how much money the Shangguan family had.
