Chapter 85: Inhumane
After the two called for a while, the door was opened a crack from the inside.
A maid poked her head out from the crack in the door. Seeing Zhou Dachuan standing outside the door, she immediately smiled and said, "Shopkeeper Zhou, you are finally here. Our old man has asked you several times. I hope you can bring the veterinarian quickly." Come here!”
"Then let's go! Hurry up, don't let Mr. Shen wait in a hurry." Zhou Dachuan said urgently.
"Shopkeeper Zhou, where is the veterinarian you brought?" the maid asked.
Zhou Dachuan immediately reached out and pushed Gu Chan forward, "That's him!"
"Ah? Isn't this a child? Shopkeeper Zhou, don't be joking! The old man has been very anxious these days. The veterinarian who came yesterday was beaten with a bruised nose and face and was thrown out." The maid reminded in time.
Zhou Dachuan laughed dryly and didn't know what to say.
Gu Chan said calmly and generously, "Don't worry, sister, I am a veterinarian who studied with my master. I will take a look today. If I can't see well, I can ask my master who is more skilled in medicine to take action."
"Is that so? That's okay. Anyway, you can make up your own mind. Don't get beaten up soon because I didn't remind you." The maid said softly with a sweet smile.
Gu Chan immediately had a good impression of her.
At least this maid is not domineering, and she is not bad either, otherwise she would not smile so sweetly.
Zhou Dachuan kept urging, "Let's go then! What are you waiting for?"
The maid nodded and opened the door.
Gu and Chan stepped in and followed her towards the mansion.
As they walked inside, Gu Chan felt that the Shen family on the border was indeed so proud.
The entire house occupies a large area, with numerous houses, rockery pavilions and pavilions. The most important thing is that as soon as you enter the gate, you will see a beautiful peach blossom forest in front of you. The wide road in the forest leads directly to the deep part of the house. And there is another door to this mansion.
In other words, the outer door is only the entrance door, and there is another entrance door inside. As for the house, it is surrounded by a peach forest, a bamboo forest, a rockery, and a lake.
This...isn't just a fucking residence! Is this just like a paradise if it is not cultivated?
"Well! The more than 178.93 million taels of silver were not wasted, and the building is indeed beautiful." After walking through the peach forest and seeing the surroundings clearly, Gu Chan couldn't help but whisper in her heart.
The maid led the way without saying a word.
Zhou Dachuan murmured in a low voice, "This is also the second time I have come to Shen Mansion. Although it is already the second time I have come in, I still can't help but be amazed every time I see the scenery in front of me!"
"Let's work hard to make money in the future! When we make enough money, we will also build a mansion like this to live in." Gu Chan began to daydream.
"Hey! Let's not think about it. Money is not that easy to make, what a fate we have!" Zhou Dachuan sighed with a wry smile on his face.
Gu Chan laughed twice and finally calmed down and stopped dreaming.
Then the two of them followed the maid into the second door of the house without saying a word, and walked towards the Shen Mansion.
After about half a stick of incense, the three of them came to a back garden on the west side of Shen Mansion.
This back garden is much larger than the county government's back garden. It covers an area as large as half a football field. All the pavilions and pavilions in it are built on a small lake below. There are many lotus flowers and a dozen big and red carps in the small lake.
Zhou Dachuan looked at the dozen or so red carp swimming in the lake, and whispered in Gu Chan's ear, "Did you see it? These ten or so red carps are all precious species of black carp, and each one is worth at least Thousands of taels of silver, just these ten pieces of red brocade are worth tens of thousands of taels of silver."
"Can this kind of ornamental carp also fight on the battlefield?" Gu Chan was curious.
It is said that the mysterious beast of Tiancang Kingdom, even a pig, has to be dragged to the battlefield to fight. How can a fish like this, which cannot live without water, still go to the battlefield to fight?
Zhou Dachuan explained, "They are usually used for water fights. Although they are fat and swim slowly, it will be different if they go to a big river. After all, people have raised them for so long. , They have been fed up and become lazy! If they return to their wild nature, they still have some abilities. "
"That's true." Gu Chan nodded clearly.
While the two were talking, they had already followed the maid outside the highest pavilion.
At this time, a thin old man with white hair, a white beard, and a white robe was standing in the middle of the pavilion, waving his hands slowly, as if practicing some kung fu.
Gu Chan raised his eyes and wondered, "Is this guy practicing Tai Chi? But why do I feel like he is playing mahjong!"
Just as Gu Chan was thinking this, the maid spoke, "Old man, shopkeeper Zhou is here."
"Yeah!" The old man responded casually and continued playing mahjong.
Gu and Chan just followed the maid and stood waiting outside the pavilion, no one dared to disturb them.
It wasn't until the old man finished a set of mahjong moves that he stopped, turned his head and looked at Zhou Dachuan and asked, "Where's the veterinarian you hired for me?"
"Old man, this is it." Zhou Dachuan pushed Gu Chan forward again.
When the old man looked at Gu Chan, he was stunned, "Is it just him?"
"Old man, don't underestimate him. I have seen his veterinary medical skills before, and they are indeed extraordinary. You might as well trust me for once and let him take a look at your mysterious beast." Zhou Dachuan vowed. answer.
The old man shook his head disdainfully, "While I'm still in a peaceful mood, you can leave! I'll pretend I've never been here."
After saying that, he turned around and left, not believing that such a handsome child in front of him could cure the illness of his beloved mysterious beast.
Zhou Dachuan was dumbfounded and stamped his feet anxiously, but he did not dare to step forward to dissuade him. He could only stand there with a frozen face, feeling extremely helpless.
At this time, Gu Chan finally spoke, "Old man, I just saw you doing that set of moves. It's very similar to a boxing technique from my hometown."
The old man suddenly stopped, turned sideways and glanced back at Gu Chan, and asked with interest, "Why, do people in your hometown know how to rub their hands like this?"
"Uh... So this is called rub... palm... Ah! Why does it look like playing mahjong." Gu Chan was stunned for a moment, and then muttered the second half of the sentence in a low voice.
The old man didn't hear clearly what she said in the second half of the sentence. He just stared at her with a cold face and shouted, "You kid, you want to get close to me, but you don't know anything else, so you use my palm skills to talk about things. Did you know that this palm technique was created by me when I was eighty years old?"
"Oh! It's a coincidence that the boxing technique in my hometown that looks like yours... was also created by an expert after he was a hundred years old. It's called Tai... Chi... …fist……"
At the end of the sentence, Gu Chan immediately stepped forward, waved her hands, and made a Tai Chi gesture on the spot.
