Chapter 357 Godfather's Good Intentions
Standing in front of the lead carriage.
Gu Chan looked at this new caravan that was emitting vitality and couldn't stop smiling.
Ma Zheng and others looked at the "Yao Duoduo" commercial flag hanging on the lead car with confusion.
Ma Zheng asked, "Boss, this name sounds weird!"
"That's right. From now on, the slogan of our Yaoduoduo Caravan will be, 'Only the cheapest, not cheaper. It's cost-effective to buy herbs in bulk.' Did you remember it?" Gu Chan said loudly.
Ma Zheng and others looked at each other in bewilderment.
Gu Chan simply raised her hand and shouted, "Come on, everyone, repeat after me, 'There is only the cheapest, there is no cheaper, it is cost-effective to buy herbs in bulk, if you want to buy medicine, look for Yao Duo Duo.'"
"It's only the cheapest, there's no cheaper. It's cost-effective to buy herbs in bulk. If you want to buy herbs, just look for Yaoduoduo!" Ma Zheng and others shouted in unison.
Gu Chan smiled widely after hearing this and felt extremely satisfied.
After shouting the slogan, Ma Zheng came up and said, "Boss, what's the point of buying it at a high price?"
"Don't ask now. When we get to Jiangnan, just do as I say and you will understand then." Gu Chan said with a smile.
The Pinduoduo business model is only understood by modern people, how could ancient people understand it?
Even though this is such an old trick, Gu Chan doesn't mind using it again. After all, there is no such business model in this world. She just needs to play with it again and make it more interesting.
With this thought in mind, Gu Chan didn't say anything more and told everyone to go down and recuperate, waiting quietly for departure.
And in the afternoon.
Just when Gu Chan was still at home thinking about how to go to Jiangnan to make money, the men sent by Shen Sanfeng finally arrived on horseback.
As soon as he entered the lobby of the clinic, his subordinate said to Gu Chan, "Second Master, it's bad. Something happened."
"What's wrong?" Gu Chan asked.
"The people the old man sent to Qixing Mountain came back with bruises and black eyes. The eldest young master and the eldest young lady don't want to come to Zhongyuan City, and they don't want to see the old man and his son!" the subordinate explained.
"Oh my god! Do these two siblings hate Shen Wuji and Shen Yao so much?" Gu Chan said in surprise.
She thought that if she waited another day or two, the eldest son and daughter of the Shen family would be back, but judging from the current situation, she was probably too optimistic.
The subordinate said, "Second Master, the old man said that I'm afraid I can only trouble you to go to Qixing Mountain in person."
"I still have to go to Jiangnan!" Gu Chan said embarrassedly.
"The Seven Star Mountain is in the South City. If you take a detour from the South City, you can also reach the south of the Yangtze River. However, it will take at least seven days longer than taking the trade route." said the subordinate.
Gu Chan lowered her head and thought about it.
From Zhongyuan City to the Jiangnan area, if you follow the trade route, it will take about half a month to arrive. But if you take the official road in the south city, it will take at least more than 20 days, not counting the time spent on the road and the time to rest after arriving at Qixing Mountain.
If she really took a detour, it would probably take a month or so to reach the Jiangnan area, and the time limit given by the prince was half a year. It would take her a month just to get there, which would be very disadvantageous to her!
Thinking of this, Gu Chan could only shake her head and said, "This is too time-consuming, which is not conducive to my going there to raise money. Why don't you go back and tell your godfather to go to Qixing Mountain in person?"
"The old man said that you should go there in person. There are many masters in Qixing Mountain, which will be a kind of training for you. As the saying goes, sharpening the knife does not delay the chopping of wood. If you go there to strengthen your strength, you will not be afraid when you go to Jiangnan again." said the subordinate.
Gu Chan's eyes suddenly lit up when she heard this.
She also admitted that Shen Sanfeng's consideration was not wrong.
Now, she only has the fifth level of physical skills, and she has been fighting all the time, so she has no time to hone her physical skills and strengthen her strength. In the past, she practiced physical skills for fun, so she took this opportunity to go to Qixing Mountain and see how the real masters practiced physical skills. In this way, she can strengthen her strength and learn from the masters at the same time, which is a good choice.
Understanding the good intentions of her godfather, Gu Chan nodded and said, "Okay, then go back and tell godfather that I will lead the caravan to bypass South City and visit Qixing Mountain."
"Yes, Second Master." The subordinate responded respectfully.
Then he immediately turned around and left, riding a fast horse back to the Shen family in the wealthy area to report to Shen Sanfeng.
After he left, Gu Chan stood up and said, "Okay, no need to wait, let's pack up and go! Our first stop is Nancheng, this time we will slowly take a detour to Jiangnan."
"Yes, boss." Everyone in the caravan responded in unison.
After that, everyone immediately packed up their luggage and left with Gu Chan, escorting three carts full of medicinal herbs.
Everyone in the clinic stood outside the gate and watched the caravan leave before going back to their own business.
Ouyang Wan'er and Zi Yue stood there, refusing to move for a long time.
Ouyang Wan'er said with reluctance, "I don't know when my husband will be back. I really hope that this time, he can turn danger into safety and return triumphantly!"
"Okay, he is still young, not even an adult yet! You don't have to rush. When he becomes successful, he will come back to take us to Kyoto to enjoy life. Don't forget, we have a big house in Kyoto! It was awarded to him by the emperor. When we move into the big house in Kyoto, we two won't have to work as hard as we do now." Zi Yue said with longing eyes.
Ouyang Wan'er nodded without comment, and a hopeful smile appeared on her face.
Then the two of them said no more, suppressed their reluctance, and returned to the clinic to get busy.
This is Gu Chan.
Since it was already afternoon when they left the city, it was completely dark after they had only walked about five miles.
The two bodyguards Cheng Hao and Di Lin who were walking in front looked at each other and then spoke to Gu Chan.
"Boss, it's getting dark. It's not safe to walk at night. Let's go find a place to rest in front!"
"There is an inn just ahead. It would be best to rest there."
"No, let's go straight forward and rest at the Chenghuang Temple in front." Gu Chan said directly.
Cheng Hao and Di Lin were puzzled for a moment. They couldn't understand why Gu Chan didn't choose a post station with better conditions to rest, but had to go to the Chenghuang Temple which was leaky on all sides.
You know, it's winter now! There's heavy snow falling from the sky, and it's extremely cold at night!
Gu Chan saw the confusion of the two and couldn't help but smile and said, "We are a caravan of merchants, not for sightseeing. We can't just think about enjoying ourselves all the time, right? Don't you think so?"
"The shopkeeper is right. We are superficial."
"Yes! Experiencing a bit of a bad environment from the beginning will be good for us later."
When the two heard what Gu Chan said, they agreed with relief.
After that, the two of them calmed down and continued to lead the way, leading the team past the post station and heading towards the City Emperor Temple ahead.
At this time, inside the post station, Zheng Shixian was getting extremely angry.
