Chapter 2954: Chapter 2954: Still Angry (1)
Gu Qingheng and Yang Ruxin paused for a moment, then after a brief discussion on the side, they actually accepted Jin Buhuan’s proposal and went to the Governor’s Office with him.
"We have the travel documents and identity papers, and also a supply contract with the general agent over there." Gu Qingheng said to Jin Buhuan as he walked, "With these things, it shouldn’t be a problem in any country; the rest depends on you."
Jin Buhuan nodded, "I’ve already sent someone to notify my adoptive brother. He’s the butler of the Imperial Teacher Residence and is very trusted by the teacher, so he has some connections."
Yang Ruxin understood now, no wonder Jin Buhuan could do business so smoothly. It’s said that a prime minister’s gatekeeper is a seventh-rank official, not to mention a butler, who often represents the teacher’s face.
"That’s good to know. You have no idea; I really have money, but this time I’ve invested all my silver into medicinal wine, almost my entire fortune. It took so many gifts to get the sales rights. Although not all the goods have been delivered this time, it’s enough to hurt my foundation." Gu Qingheng sighed, "I regret it to death now. If I had known, I should’ve gone to do business in Yuan Country. How could I encounter such troublesome things here?"
By this time, they had already reached the entrance of the Governor’s Office.
"I said we should go to Yuan Country, but you insisted on coming to Jin Country. Look at you now, are you happy?" Yang Ruxin couldn’t help but roll her eyes at Gu Qingheng, "If you go bankrupt, I’ll take our son and remarry."
"How dare you!" Gu Qingheng glared.
"You think I won’t dare?" Yang Ruxin’s eyes widened even more, "It’s hard to find a three-legged toad, but there are plenty of two-legged men."
Jin Buhuan quickly lowered his head and coughed softly, almost unable to hold back his laughter, which would have been rude.
Gu Qingheng hurriedly looked around cautiously, looking defeated: "Okay, wife, keep it down, we’re not at the final stage yet, are we?"
"Hmph!" Yang Ruxin snorted, then turned her head away, indicating she was still angry.
Gu Qingheng awkwardly rubbed his nose, glanced at Jin Buhuan: "Women are like this, don’t mind her, she’s just anxious."
"I understand, I understand." Jin Buhuan also nodded awkwardly, then quickly went up to negotiate with the guards.
But what they didn’t know was that someone had already witnessed what just happened and rushed inside to report it.
Gongben Hao didn’t plan to personally meet the people, because he wasn’t sure if these two were indeed Yang Ruxin and Gu Qingheng, so he needed to observe.
Little did he know, while he thought he was observing others unknowingly, they had already noticed long ago.
After Yang Ruxin and the others left, there was a slight smile at the corner of her mouth, then she exchanged a glance with Gu Qingheng, both understanding without words.
This was the County Governor’s Office in Shangjing, and this time they were received by County Magistrate Nalan Hou.
Jin Buhuan knelt down to salute, but Gu Qingheng and Yang Ruxin stood straight.
"Who are below? Why don’t you kneel when you see me?" Nalan Hou struck the court hammer.
"Sir." Jin Buhuan knelt, "I am Jin Buhuan, these two are my business partners, people from Daxuan, Shu..."
"Sir, I am Shu Heng, this is my wife from the Dong Family." Gu Qingheng cupped his fists, "We came here to ask why my goods were detained?"
"People from Daxuan? Does being from Daxuan mean you don’t have to kneel?" Nalan Hou frowned, striking the court hammer again, "Kneel."
