Chapter 374 I’m looking for you


    When Gu Fei went in, he saw several cars parked inside and some coolies were unloading the goods.


    ?Gu Fei walked quickly to the main hall and saw her father sitting inside, reading the account book.


    ??Gu Fei called her father into the house, closed the door, took out 40,000 taels of silver notes and handed them to her father, "Dad is holding this money for buying goods."


    ?Gu Zhang looked at the amounts on several banknotes, his hands trembled, and he hesitated to speak.


    The daughter just gave him 20,000 taels. This is another 40,000 taels, and this house, I don’t know where it came from.


    ?However, if his daughter doesn’t tell her, it’s hard for him to ask.


    ?Gu Zhang turned his back and put the banknote close to his body. Gu Fei then said: "Dad, I have found someone and I plan to let him go to sea with you this time."


    ?Gu Zhang asked in confusion: "Who is he?"


    "An old guy from Yinlou." Gu Fei just mentioned it to shopkeeper Zhang at Yinlou, and shopkeeper Zhang recommended an old guy to her.


    This man has been working in the silver shop for more than 20 years. Now he is not considered a clerk. He is a capable steward under shopkeeper Zhang. He is familiar with the fineness and price of various gemstones. Gu Fei chatted with him and was willing to pay three For a hundred taels of silver, he was invited to go to sea.


    ?The man hesitated for a while and then agreed.


    ?He can earn seven to eighty taels of silver a year, three hundred taels, so it is worth taking some risks.


    Gu Zhang''s eyes lit up after hearing this, "I''m just worried. Now in Fanbang, if I want to buy gems, pearls, jade, ivory, etc., I don''t know how to do it myself. I have learned some lessons from Mr. Zhou in the past two days, but there is no way here. There are too many things that can be learned in a short time.”


    “It would be great if someone could help me.”


    ??Gu Fei said with a smile: "No, dad will discuss with him what gems to buy in the future and how to buy them."


    “Besides, now that we have a silver house and precious stones, we don’t have to worry about selling them.”


    ?Gu Zhang felt reassured, "With this person, Dad won''t panic anymore."


    "It''s easy to buy goods here with Master Zhu''s family. I was worried about what to do when I get to Fanbang."


    Gu Fei thought for a while, "After going to sea, every time I stop at a big port, it''s best for dad to buy one or two people to bring back. First, teach them to speak our local dialect, and we can also learn the dialect of other countries from them, so that we can do the same thing next time we go to sea. When it comes to business, I feel more confident. This overseas business is not something we can do just once, we need to plan for the long term.”


    ?Gu Zhang nodded, "My daughter has thought carefully, and it''s done. Dad will remember it."


    "By the way, if there are good gem craftsmen in Fanbang, I''d like to see if I can buy some back. Fanbang''s craftsmanship is different from that in the Central Plains. If such a person buys it back, the silver house will also need it." Gu Fei said As I said that, I felt itchy in my heart and just wanted to go to sea by myself.


    ?Gu Zhang nodded, and the father and daughter discussed many things in detail before Gu Fei turned back to the inn.


    It was already lunch time, and the business in the inn was booming.


    ?Gu Fei sat down in front of the counter and was very busy doing calculations and collecting money.


    ?Yan''er and Fang''er felt very proud and went to greet the guests.


    At first, Yan''er and Fang''er were not used to it. They were used to staying in the deep compound and didn''t like to show up in public.


    But after a few days here, the store was bustling all day long, and everyone was chatting and laughing in their spare time. Compared with their previous lives, it was much more interesting, and the two of them gradually let go.


    After finishing the business with the customers, the guys in the store started to eat lunch. Gu Fei was sitting at the counter with a bowl of rice and saw Su Chen walking in.


    ?Gu Fei''s eyes lit up and he sucked a vegetable leaf in, "Mr. Su, I was just looking for you."
