Chapter 227 Sure enough, someone is up to something.
After seeing off Lao Bai, the four of them, Gu Chan, returned to Liu Heimei’s wood shop.
As soon as the four of them returned outside the shop, Liu Heimei came up and asked, "How was it?"
"I bought it for three thousand taels of silver." Gu Chan said.
"This old man Bai! He really dares to raise the price! No one wants three hundred taels for his haunted house, yet he dares to ask for three thousand taels. You are really cheated by him." Liu Heimei cursed angrily and stood for Gu Chan is unhappy.
Gu Chan smiled lightly and said, "He only asked for two thousand taels. I gave him an extra thousand taels. After all, he is old and has no children. This money can be considered as a pension for him."
"You are the only one who is kind. Let me tell you, don't be too kind in Zhongyuan City. Be careful that your kindness will not be rewarded." Liu Heimei reminded kindly.
Gu Chan kept her words in mind, but didn't say much. She just changed the subject and said, "Okay, boss lady, prepare some good wood for me and send it over. We are going to start repairing that building today, and we will do it tonight." Gotta move in."
"Okay! Then be careful at night." Liu Heimei said worriedly.
Gu Chan nodded quietly, and then she led everyone out of the shop and headed towards the haunted house ahead.
On the way there, Zhou Dachuan and others were all on tenterhooks and very nervous. On the other hand, Gu Chan looked relaxed.
In her opinion, being able to spend three thousand taels to buy such a large piece of land with a big yard and a four-story building is considered a profit for her. As for whether it is dangerous or not, she will not know until she checks it out after moving in.
Thinking like this, Gu Chan felt that it didn't matter.
After a while, everyone arrived at the haunted house. Because they had to stay at night, everyone was afraid, but they still mustered up the courage to clean it up.
More than an hour later, Liu Heimei personally brought a cart full of good wood, and bravely stepped into the haunted house, commanding her carpenters to help Gu Chan repair the house.
As the saying goes, there is strength in numbers.
There are more than fifty people here in Gu Chan, plus the ten people brought by Liu Heimei, the total number is more than seventy. Together they repair the house very quickly.
When the sun is about to set, the house is basically ready for people to live in.
Liu Heimei pulled Gu Chan and said, "Shopkeeper Gu, you can only temporarily repair your house like this today. You guys can stay here tonight. If nothing goes wrong, I will bring people over tomorrow to continue to help you repair your house."
"Thank you very much, boss lady." Gu Chan said gratefully.
"You're welcome. I took your money. This is what I should do. Anyway, after two or three days of repairs, this building will basically be fine. But I'm quite worried about you. I don't know if you can Stay here for two or three days!" Liu Heimei said with a worried look.
Gu Chan smiled nonchalantly and said, "Don't worry, I'm a tough guy and I'm not afraid."
"Okay, you be careful, I'll leave first." Liu Heimei said with a smile.
After saying that, she seemed to be running away, leading a dozen carpentry masters she had brought with her, and fled quickly.
Gu Chan didn't pay attention, but waved her hand and said, "Everyone will stay here temporarily tonight and find their own rooms to live in. In order to prevent everyone from being afraid at night, during the first three days of moving in, we have to go upstairs every night. Oil lamps were lit everywhere and lanterns were hung outside, illuminating the whole building."
"Yes, from the shopkeeper." Everyone agreed in unison and immediately followed her instructions.
Soon the whole building was lit with oil lamps and lanterns were hung. Everything inside and outside the building was bright, which made everyone's fear dissipate more than a little.
After dinner, everyone went back to their rooms to sleep.
Gu Chan sat alone in the lobby, drinking tea quietly. At this time, Ouyang Wan'er came down with a cloak, put it on Gu Chan, and said softly in her ear, "Husband, it's cold at night, don't catch a cold."
"Go to sleep! I'll stay here all night, and I want to see what kind of ghost is causing trouble here." Gu Chan said softly.
Ouyang Wan'er shook her head, walked to sit next to him, tilted her head and leaned in her arms, saying quietly, "I want to stay with you, you are my husband, I'm afraid something will happen to you."
"..." Gu Chan.
Dry!
She really couldn't stand the two girls being so affectionate and silent!
However, Ouyang Wan'er was so kind to her that she was embarrassed to refuse, but if she continued like this, she was afraid that this girl would touch her.
Quickly reaching out to help Ouyang Wan'er sit up straight, Gu Chan changed the subject, "By the way, how are you doing with your menstrual towel research?"
"I was just about to tell you this!" Ouyang Wan'er said happily.
Then she reached into her pocket, took out a menstrual towel that she had modified, and handed it to Gu Chan.
Gu Chan took it and looked at it carefully, and found that after Ouyang Wan'er's improvement, the menstrual towel became thinner, and in order to make it stick to the trousers, Ouyang Wan'er also painted on the small wings on both sides. With sticky dog skin plaster and oil paper attached, it fully meets the standards of modern sanitary napkins!
Ouyang Wan'er saw a smile on Gu Chan's face. She explained at the side, "This dog skin plaster is harmless to humans. It's good to use on trousers. And I've tried it. Just use hot water. The bubble and dog skin plaster is also easy to wash off, and I also made it thinner and filled it with highly absorbent cotton, which is very easy to use. ”
"Have you tried it yourself?" Gu Chan asked.
"Yeah! I just had my period the day before yesterday." Ouyang Wan'er lowered her head and said with a blushing face.
Gu Chan nodded with satisfaction.
Now that Ouyang Wan'er has tried it herself and thinks it's easy to use, she can use it in the future too! In this way, you no longer have to feel the discomfort of inserting a menstrual stick. It is more comfortable to use this thing.
Thinking like this, Gu Chan made a decision without saying anything, "In this way, we will stay here for three days. After three days, we will make sure that there is no problem and the whole building has been repaired. Then we will start mass production of menstrual towels. "
"Yes! I listen to you, husband." Ouyang Wan'er said happily.
"Huhuhu..."
As soon as she finished speaking, strange whirring sounds suddenly sounded throughout the building.
The next second, all the oil lamps and cages inside and outside the building went out instantly.
"Ah... Husband, I'm afraid..." Ouyang Wan'er screamed in fear and jumped into Gu Chan's arms. She was like a frightened little white rabbit, being held tightly by Gu Chan.
Gu Chan's first reaction was not to be afraid, but to feel that Ouyang Wan'er was so soft and comfortable in her arms.
But just as she was thinking this, a puff of white smoke suddenly blew in from outside the courtyard, and soon filled the entire building.
Ouyang Wan'er just inhaled a puff of white smoke, then immediately closed her eyes and fainted in Gu Chan's arms.
"Hmph! Mi Yan, someone is really up to something, why don't you do this for me?" Gu Chan said with a smile on her lips.
Then she immediately secretly mobilized the spiritual energy in her body to seal her mouth and nose. On the surface, she pretended to be dazed by the smoke and fell unconscious on the chair while holding Ouyang Wan'er.
