Chapter 333: Opportunity in Front of Us
Gu Zhang thought for a moment, "We actually have the manpower, and we can trust it. Your uncle is a real man, but he can't read."
"The village chief -- uh, it's the sixth cousin's family. Jin Sheng and Yin Sheng can read, and they are reliable."
Gu Fei glanced at Chen, "Dad, going to sea is a dangerous thing. These are all relatives. I'm afraid--"
Gu Zhang waved his hand, "I understand what you mean, but you don't understand that we ordinary people are all exchanging our lives for money."
"We don't care about the risk, as long as we can make money."
"Dad means that, first, he wants to help them, and second, only relatives can be trusted."
Gu Fei nodded. There are risks in going to sea, but it doesn't mean going to die. Besides, high risks also mean high returns.
Gu Zhang looked at Gu Fei and said, "If you really decide to buy a boat, don't go on this first trip to the sea. Dad will take a few people."
Gu Fei's face changed slightly, "Dad, it's dangerous to go to the sea, so I'll go."
Chen said anxiously beside him, "Don't go, don't go. Our family has enough money now. We couldn't even think of such a life before. Why do such a dangerous thing!"
"As long as my family can live together, I'm willing."
Gu Zhang shook his head, "You don't understand."
It's right to be content with a small fortune, but when the opportunity to change the fate of the entire family is in front of you, it's worth taking any risks.
The daughter has put the opportunity in front of him, doesn't he even have the courage to do it?
Gu Fei waved her hand, "Dad, who will go to discuss this matter? We haven't even bought the boat yet."
"Let's go to the city first. Dad and I will take people to these shops. Don't do anything yet. Just tell them that the owner has changed."
"Then buy a few literate or smart servants and train them first, so that there won't be no one to use in the future."
Gu Zhang nodded and sighed, "Our family's foundation is still too shallow."
Suddenly there are shops and land, but there is not even a useful manager.
Usually, I thought I had many sons, but when I needed them, there was only Erlang left.
Fortunately, they were taught to recognize words since they were young, otherwise they would be at a loss.
The family discussed it roughly, and Chen's objection was ineffective. Seeing that Gu Zhang and Gu Fei were going their own way, Chen was anxious and crying.
Gu Fei hugged her mother and said, "Mom, don't worry too much. Nothing will happen."
What can Chen do? Gu Zhang and Gu Fei are both out of her control.
After pacifying Chen, Gu Fei and Gu Zhang took Erlang's car into the city again.
The three of them went to the three shops of Wu's housekeeper together. One was a grain and oil shop, one sold rouge and powder, and the other was a silver shop. The silver shop was on Furong Street, not far from the inn.
Gu Zhang took out the house deed, explained his identity, and called these people to the inn.
These people heard yesterday that Wu's housekeeper was beaten to death and his house was raided.
They were just the shopkeepers hired by Wu's housekeeper. They were very nervous for a while. They estimated that the new owner was either the master of the palace or someone related to several masters. They didn't know whether they would be allowed to continue working.

Gu Fei and Gu Zhang checked the accounts for the past month. They didn't check the previous accounts. Seeing that there were no problems on the accounts and that they had made a lot of money, Gu Fei said, "Since the shopkeepers have managed this shop well, let's continue like this. Pay the bills once a month. I'll add 10% to the wages given by Butler Wu. Just manage the shop well in the future."
