Chapter 534 I finally have a mansion
Early the next morning.
Gu Chan got up early, washed and had breakfast. Then she called Cheng Hao, Yuan Ying and Yuan Jie to leave Jigong Temple with her and head towards the east of Jiangnan City.
According to the location written on the memorial Yan Xishan gave her yesterday, the newly built lord's mansion is located at the foot of Tianlong Mountain to the east of Jiangnan City. As for how big the lord's mansion is, she doesn't know yet and has to go and see it to understand the specific situation.
On the way there, the four of them were sitting in the carriage, talking and laughing.
Yuan Jie said happily, "That's good. Master, you have finally established a firm foothold in the Jiangnan area. As long as we can withstand the pressure from the Crown Prince in the future, we will have a good life."
"Yes! I never thought that our little boss could become the leader of a group in Jiangnan." Yuan Ying said with a big laugh.
"This is just like a dream. When we were caught before, I thought both of us were probably doomed!" Cheng Hao also felt emotional.
Seeing the three of them looking so happy, Gu Chan had a stern face and couldn't smile at all.
This lord's mansion in Jiangnan City is undoubtedly a hot potato to her. If she really moves in, the prince will definitely launch a crazy suppression against her.
Moreover, the reason why Zuo Wangfeng and Shuiyue dare not act now is only because the envoys of Diyue Kingdom are rushing to Kyoto for peace talks. Once the peace talks are over, they will be greeted by a storm, so it is hard to say whether they can withstand this wave.
Cheng Hao said at the right time, "Master, good fortune will come to those who are lucky. Don't worry too much. You should show your lord's momentum right now. Otherwise, if you don't have confidence, won't we be even more uncertain?"
"Oh! I have a miserable life. I should have done business well to make some money and live a rich life, but I got involved in so many troubles. I am so overwhelmed. I don't know when I can really live a leisurely life." Gu Chan said with a wry smile.
Cheng Hao and the other two were speechless and didn't know how to comfort Gu Chan.
After that, the four of them fell silent and did not continue to talk about these heavy topics.
After more than an hour, the carriage finally arrived at the foot of Tianlong Mountain.
The four people got out of the car, looked up at the magnificent lord's mansion built in front of them, and were all stunned.
This is because the lord's mansion is so huge that it occupies a large piece of land at the foot of Tianlong Mountain. From the outside, it looks like a huge sect, especially the tall gate and the three big words "Lord's Mansion" engraved on the gate, which are really eye-catching.
Yuan Jie opened her mouth wide, and said in surprise, "Oh my god! These officials and businessmen in the Jiangnan area are really willing to spend money! In order to please the Second Prince, they actually built such a large mansion. It's really luxurious."
"It is indeed luxurious. If I were the prince, seeing such an extremely luxurious lord's mansion in Jiangnan, I would definitely want to kill the lord!" Yuan Ying said with emotion.
Cheng Hao quickly came to his senses and said to Gu Chan, "Master, this mansion is so big, isn't it too spacious for just a few of us to live in? Are you considering hiring guards and servants?"
"Hiss...that makes sense, but at this critical juncture, wouldn't it be a bad idea for me to do this?" Gu Chan hissed, touching his chin with his hand.
"What's wrong with this? As the lord of Jiangnan, it's normal for you to recruit guards for your mansion, right?" Cheng Hao said, spreading his hands.
Yuan Ying and Yuan Jie also nodded affirmatively.
Gu Chan made a prompt decision and ordered, "Okay, then the matter of recruiting guards and maids and servants is left to you. As for now, let's go in and take a look around first and familiarize ourselves with the environment inside." "Yes, master." The three responded in unison.
Then the four of them went into the lord's mansion together and began to walk around inside.
It was during this tour that the four people realized that there were a total of eighteen courtyards, each of which was almost as big as the county government office and independent of each other. In addition, there were five gardens, three treasure houses, and a huge academy, all of which were built very luxuriously and inhumanely.
The four of them went in to shop in the morning and didn't come out until after noon.
Standing at the gate, Gu Chan's heart was pounding.
Dry!
Growing up, she had never thought that one day she would live in a place like this. Thinking back to when she was in Wuheng County on the border, she went to her godfather Shen Sanfeng's house and was envious of the luxurious Shen Mansion.
But now she doesn't have to envy anyone anymore. In front of this lord's mansion, the Shen Mansion is nothing!
Cheng Hao reminded him at the right time, "Master, let's go! Let's go back to Jigong Temple to pack our luggage and move here, and then post a notice to recruit guards and maids."
"Okay, leave one horse for me. I'm going to go somewhere else. Then the three of you go back and help me pack up and move all the things over. I'll meet you at the lord's mansion in the evening." Gu Chan ordered.
"Yes, master." The three of them responded respectfully, immediately got on the carriage and left, leaving a horse for Gu Chan.
Without saying a word, Gu Chan mounted her horse and headed straight for Yingchun Tower in the north of the city.
In the past, due to her status, she didn't dare to go to Yingchun Tower to find Wei Xing and others so openly, but now she is the boss in the Jiangnan area, so naturally she doesn't need to care so much anymore.
Just then, in the afternoon, when she rode her horse to the outside of Yingchun Tower, the guard guarding the door saw that it was her and hurried in to inform Wei Xing.
After a while, Wei Xing came out in a hurry to greet her and took her to a spacious private room upstairs.
The two sat opposite each other, and Wei Xing asked with a puzzled look on his face, "Why did you come here suddenly? Is there any trouble again?"
"I'm here to ask you to come with me to enjoy life." Gu Chan said with a strange smile.
"Little boss, please don't tease me. Since following you, we have never enjoyed a single day of happiness. As long as you don't cause trouble and don't make us follow you in fear every day, it will be the greatest blessing for us." Wei Xing said with a smile.
Gu Chan was amused by him and laughed.
After laughing for a while, she got serious and said, "Okay, no more jokes. Hurry up and ask someone to call Xue Lihua, Ren Nanshan, Cheng Yu, the four-legged snake Sogou and the gorilla over to me. I want to have a meeting with you today."
"Okay, I'll tell the servants to call them over." Wei Xing nodded in agreement.
Then he immediately stood up and walked to the door, and ordered a servant to invite Xue Lihua and others.
After doing this, he went back into the house and sat down, waiting quietly with Gu Chan.
