Chapter 399 The First Shareholder
At noon the next day.
Yesterday, the news that Gu Chan had toughened the Nanxian King and killed Sun Tianding spread quickly throughout Nancheng.
For a time, everyone admired Gu Chan greatly and gave her a thumbs up in their hearts.
No one would have thought that the dignified brother-in-law of Nan Xian Wang would die in the hands of a child like this. This is indeed very sad.
At this time, Gu Chan had no energy to pay attention to the external situation.
While Prince Xian’s Mansion was still holding a funeral for Sun Tianding, she quickly gave the Nancheng County Magistrate’s official uniform, hat, and seal to Cheng Hao, and held a ceremony for him at the county government office. A simple succession ceremony was held.
In this way, Cheng Hao became the new Nancheng County Magistrate.
At dusk in the afternoon, Cheng Hao and Wuying rode their horses and sent Gu Chan and others out of the city.
At the gate of the city, both parties reluctantly said goodbye.
Cheng Hao couldn't help but his knees softened, and he knelt down in front of Gu Chan and said, "Shopkeeper, your kindness in knowing me is something I, Cheng Hao, will never forget. In the future, I will definitely be the magistrate of Nancheng County, and I will ask for orders and justice for the people." Justice, I will never live up to your high expectations of me."
"Okay, get up! This time I have completely offended King Nanxian. Yours and Yuan Ying's lives will be in danger in the future. Be careful, whether you can save your lives depends entirely on the abilities of the two of you. As soon as I leave, King Nanxian will definitely target me. He will definitely not touch you in a short time. Anyway, as long as I If you don't fall, just hold on to me." Gu Chan helped Cheng Hao up and said earnestly.
Cheng Hao had tears in his grateful eyes and suddenly didn’t know what to say.
In fact, they all understood that Gu Chan did not necessarily want to kill Sun Tianding yesterday and completely break with King Nanxian, but she still did it under such strong pressure. Isn't this obvious? She thought Will Sun Tianding be completely eradicated and pave the way for Cheng Hao to succeed as county magistrate?
The fact is just as she said, after what happened yesterday, King Nanxian will definitely kill her in the future. As long as she goes to Jiangnan, if King Nanxian wants to touch her again, he will be there in Jiangnan. Take action.
In this way, Cheng Hao and Yuan Ying had time to breathe, which was enough time for them to consolidate their status as county magistrates.
So it can be said that Gu Chan burned herself and illuminated them and all the people in Nancheng!
On this point, Cheng Hao and Yuanying had to be moved.
Gu Chan didn't care about this. She reached out and took Yuan Ying's hand and handed it into Cheng Hao's hand. She said softly, "You two should get along well in the future and never abandon each other. I believe that with your strength, as long as you work together, it will not be easy for King Nanxian to get rid of you."
"Yes, the shopkeeper," Cheng Hao and Yuan Ying agreed in unison.
Gu Chan took back her hand, waved to the two of them, and said, "Let's go! You go back to the county office and do your own things. We'll wait for someone here. If we can't wait, we'll leave on our own later."
< br>"The shopkeeper, be careful, we are going back first."
"Yes! You must pay attention to safety along the way."
Cheng Hao and Yuanying said one after another with concern.
After saying that, the two said goodbye to Gu Chan and others, jumped on their horses, and headed back to Nancheng County Yamen.
After they left, Gu Chan and others rested and waited by the city gate.
After about a stick of incense, a Baihualou carriage slowly drove out from the city gate. Stopping in front of the caravan, Yuan Baihua got out of the carriage.
Gu Chan greeted him with a smile.
When the two met again, Yuan Baihua could no longer suppress the admiration for Gu Chan in her heart, and bowed deeply to her with great respect.
Gu Chan quickly stretched out her hand to support her and said, "Master Yuan, what are you doing? Why are you so polite?"
"Shopkeeper Gu, you really did an extraordinary job to get rid of this harm to our Nancheng yesterday. , For this reason, I should bow deeply to you on behalf of all the people in Nancheng to express my gratitude!" Yuan Baihua said in a sincere tone.
Compared with her previous suspicion and caution towards Gu Chan, her attitude has now completely changed.
Gu Chan's act of righteousness yesterday had already deeply conquered her heart.
Even at this time, the look in her eyes when she looked at Gu Chan became very soft and warm.
Gu Chan really looked a little embarrassed to her, and quickly reached out and scratched the back of his head and said, "It's just a small effort for me, you don't have to be so polite."
"Shopkeeper Gu, I won't talk nonsense anymore. , I have agreed to the investment you told me that day, and I also brought 50,000 taels of silver to you," Yuan Baihua said softly.
After saying that, she immediately ordered someone to take out a small brocade box containing 50,000 taels of silver notes from the carriage and respectfully handed it to Gu Chan's hand.
Gu Chan took the brocade box and immediately asked Ma Zheng to take out the two contracts that had been prepared without looking at the amount of banknotes inside, handed them to Yuan Baihua and said, "This is It's the share purchase contract that I drafted last night. The contents written in the two contracts are exactly the same. I have already signed and pledged them both. After you sign and pledge, we will each hold a copy, so you will be Gu Chan's first shareholder. "Yes!" Yuan Baihua said with a smile.
Then without saying a word, she immediately signed her name on the two contracts with a pen, and put her fingerprint on the name.
After that, Gu Chan and her signed a contract with each other and reached a cooperation.
After Yuan Baihua collected the contract, he turned to say, "Shopkeeper Gu, I heard that you went to Jiangnan this time to raise relief money for the border for the imperial court, right?"
" It seems that Nangong Jin's scheming man has revealed all my details to you!" Gu Chan said with a strange smile.
Yuan Baihua covered her mouth in embarrassment and smiled coquettishly, "Okay, shopkeeper Gu, stop teasing me. I was just acting on the occasion that night. In fact, I have already seen through the young prince's character. I don’t have much interest in him, and now that I’m cooperating with you, I will naturally turn to your side. I will definitely go against them in the future.”
"Let me tell you, Cheng Haocai has just become the county magistrate and is inexperienced. When you are fine, remember to go to the county government office more often, have a good chat with them, teach them some experience, and help them more. Once the time comes, If the three of you join forces, there won't be many people in Nancheng who can really touch your foundation," Gu Chan reminded him at the right time.
Yuan Baihua nodded noncommittally.
She admitted that what Gu Chan said made sense. If she wanted to develop and grow in the future, she must have a good relationship with the new county magistrate.
Gu Chan didn’t want to say any more, she cupped her fists and saluted and said, "Master Yuan, let’s say goodbye then. I hope that when we meet again next time, you will have defeated Zhaixing Pavilion and made Baihua Tower the number one in Nancheng. Building.”
“I would like to give you my best wishes and wish you success in horse racing. I will also give you a tips bag. When you arrive in Jiangnan, you will open this tip bag when you encounter difficulties. To solve your urgent need," Yuan Baihua said with a wink.
After saying that, she reached into her sleeve, took out a small pink pouch, and stuffed it into Gu Chan's hand. Then she immediately got on the carriage and returned to the city.
Gu Chan smiled, put the kit into his sleeve, got into the carriage, and led the caravan on the official road to Jiangnan.
