Chapter 1053 Got it
It was fine if people wanted to target him before because he was a merchant, but now that he is among the nobles and a county lord, there are still people who want to target him. Do they think he is living too well?
"Okay, okay, Princess, please say so. I will go through fire and water for you without hesitation." The man in black spoke in a firm tone.
"Come on, come on. There is no need to go through fire and water. This county lady will not let you go through fire and water or do anything dangerous. Just tell the people on the street that you have got it. This is for you. You take this paper and hand it to him. He will give you the rest of the money. I can guarantee that you can get the remaining 4000 taels of silver." Gu Yao took out a piece of paper from her sleeve and handed it to the person in front of her.
When the man in black heard that he could still be saved, he forced a smile on his pale face, which looked a little weird in Guiyang's eyes.
"Thank you, County Lord. Thank you, County Lord. You are a very good person." The man in black kept kowtowed to Gu Yao.
After Gu Yao left, he told Xiao Zhen to have someone follow and find out who wanted to harm him. He was determined to find that person this time.
"Miss, don't worry, leave this matter to me. It's getting late now, you should go to bed early." Xiao Zhen believes that girls need to get more rest so that they can become beautiful.
Their young lady is pretty and needs to rest more. In the future, when people go out and see their young lady, their eyes will light up. Their young lady will be the most beautiful girl in the crowd.
"Okay, I'll listen to you. I'm going to have a good rest. I'll leave the housework to you. I've been almost mentally exhausted by the Tan family for some time. After this period of time is over, I will not let go of the Tans who picked on me."
After saying these harsh words, Gu Yao returned to her room, crawled into bed, and fell into a deep sleep.
Nothing can disturb his sleep.
Xiao Zhen stayed at home and asked Xiao Yi to go with him.
Xiao Yi and a few of his brothers hid in the dark, waiting for the men in black to come and trade.
The men in black returned to the courtyard where they lived. The courtyard was in a dilapidated state, with half of the wall collapsed. It seemed that the owner of the courtyard must be a poor man.
Xiao Yi smacked his lips. He could go to Jiangyang Avenue to work, but he didn't even clean up the yard. He shouldn't be that poor!
"Brother, where have you been? Why did you come back just now?" A little boy of seven or eight years old ran up to the man in black and said anxiously.
"It's okay, it's okay. Big brother went out to do a job moving heavy bags for someone else. He was so busy that he just came back now. Have you all eaten?" The man in black didn't take it seriously at all.
"Brother, you are lying. Why do I smell blood? Did you have a fight with someone? Our mother is in very poor health now. Please don't fight, okay?" The little boy's eyes turned red as he spoke. He looked so aggrieved and about to cry that it was heartbreaking.
"You little brat, your big brother is working and the load is too heavy, so I got a little skin rubbed off. It's okay, big brother will make money in the future, and I'll let you eat meat every meal." He now has 1000 taels of silver in his hand, and will soon get the remaining 4000 taels of silver. 5000 taels of silver are enough for their family to live on for a lifetime without worries about food and drink.
"It's good that brother didn't fight with others. In two years, I will be grown up and I can go out to carry big bags and support the family. Then your brother won't be so tired." The little boy said with determination in his eyes.
Before dawn the next day, the man put on black clothes again and left home.
Trading with people in a dilapidated temple in West City.
The man was also dressed in coarse linen clothes and did not look like a rich man, but the way he walked was not like that of an ordinary person.
The man in coarse linen clothes got the note and his mouth was almost stretched to his ears.
After seeing that there was nothing wrong with the contents, he immediately stuffed it into his chest and handed the remaining 4000 taels of silver to the man in black.
"We'll have a chance to work together again in the future. You did a great job this time." The man said and left with a smile.
Xiao Yi asked his men to continue keeping an eye on the black man, while he personally kept an eye on the man in coarse linen clothes.
He kept following the man, and no one noticed his presence.
The man knew some kung fu and could walk faster, but in Xiao Yi's eyes, it was child's play.
After following him all the way to the gate of the Tan family, Xiao Yi was sure that this person should be a member of the Tan family.
After Xiao Yi returned home, he told Xiao Zhen everything.
"It's them, they really are unscrupulous just for a little money. As long as I, Xiao Zhen, am here, I won't let them hurt the young lady."
"Boss, don't be impulsive. Talk to the young lady about the matter after you see her tomorrow morning, and then make other arrangements after discussing it." Xiao Yi felt that their eldest brother should like the young lady.
According to the eldest son's previous status, the identity of a widow is totally unworthy of their eldest son.
But now the young lady is already a county lady. Although she is a widow, the eldest sister’s current status is not good either.
It’s hard to say, maybe now the young lady in their family looks down on the eldest son in their family.
"You have another thing to say. Who do you think your boss is? You can't break the rules. Go and have a rest. I'll keep watch tonight." Xiao Zhen didn't feel sleepy at all now.
"Then I won't be polite, boss. Hehe..." Xiao smiled and went back to rest.

"How is it? Did it work?" Tan Qingyun's face was full of gloom.
"Of course it worked, sir. If I had known this earlier, I would have done it this way, and I could have saved the 2000 taels of silver for buying the shares." The butler said with a smile.
"It's okay if you have it now. Bring it to me quickly." Mr. Tan was extremely nervous.
If this thing is real, then he will really get rich.
These two recipes are simply cash cows.
After he took the prescription and saw the contents, the corners of his mouth gradually rose: "Not bad, not bad. I have seen all the steps here before. I really didn't expect that the person you found was so capable. He got it in one trip."
Tan Qingyun felt that he had spent a bit too much, 5000 taels of silver.
But thinking that he could probably earn this money in a few days, he didn't take it seriously.
Tan Qingyun waved his hand, took out 100 taels of silver from his sleeve and gave it to the housekeeper.
What the butler did for him this time was really great. He had been trying his best to get this recipe, but he didn't expect that the butler would get it directly with just one move. It was much smoother than he had imagined.
The butler took the banknote with a smile and stuffed it into his sleeve.
He deserved the reward. He was also risking his life to work for his master. Fortunately, his master was not stingy and let him earn some money.
