Transmigration: From Farmer To Empress

Chapter 372 Opening a Store in Beijing (4)

Seeing that Butler Cao came back alone, he did not bring Meiniang's family back. Duke An Guo was surprised and said, "Steward Cao, why didn't my granddaughter come back with you? Didn't you pass on what I said?"

Butler Cao smiled awkwardly, repeated Caiwei's words exactly, then lowered his head and said no more.

One thousand taels!

This number really frightened and stumped Mr. An Guo. He cursed secretly that this damn girl who didn't know the heights of heaven and earth dared to be so arrogant and rampant. If it weren't for Mr. Huo, he would have taken her into the house right away. Come on, beat him half to death first, and then deal with it.

However, Mr. Huo was right in front of him, and his dissatisfaction and resentment could not be revealed at all. However, he really couldn't afford the thousand taels that the dead girl said!

If she said one or two hundred taels, he might be able to grit his teeth, sell it well in front of Huo Yuan, and reluctantly agree to it, but one thousand taels is enough to cover the expenses of the house for a month, and he is reluctant to part with it, and he can't afford it!

An Guogong was holding a teacup and pretending to drink tea. The old face on the teacup was so troubled and ugly.

Butler Cao stood aside, bowing his head and saying nothing. The men sitting on the table looked at each other with dissatisfaction on their faces, but because of Huo Yuan's face, they couldn't get angry. They just gritted their teeth and were speechless with hatred.

Seeing everyone like this, Huo Yuan smiled calmly and said, "My lord, since she has this intention, why don't you fulfill her wish so that she can live in peace of mind."

"Ahem, that's fine. I'm old and my thoughts are inevitably conservative. If I just stick to the old rules and suppress her, if this girl gets angry and refuses to come back to recognize my grandfather, I won't be in a big loss."

An Guogong was cheeky and joking happily, found a way out for himself at the right time, and showed off his skills in front of Mr. Huo, showing how much he valued his granddaughter!

Huo Yuan smiled and said: "The Duke is wise, Huo thanks you again."

After saying that, he took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and handed it over to Duke An Guo.

An Guogong took it and took a look and saw that it was a house deed located in Maoer Hutong.

Although Maoer Hutong is called Maoer Hutong, it is not actually an alley. It is a bustling commercial street. Every inch of land there is very valuable. A two-story shop as big as the one listed on the house deed can be worth at least 20,000 taels. , it can be said to be a golden area with sky-high prices!

"What...what is this?"

Duke An Guo took the house deed worth ten thousand gold and was confused.

Huo Yuan smiled calmly and said, "It's a house deed! Did the Duke forget it? Your fourth daughter is getting married, and you haven't had time to prepare a dowry for her yet. This house deed should be regarded as your dowry for her!"

Huo Yuan's generosity shocked everyone in the Duke's Mansion. No one could figure out what kind of fairy daughter Du Meiniang would give birth to, worthy of the high-minded Master Huo's efforts. Spending such a huge sum of money?

Duke An Guo put the house deed into his sleeve with mixed emotions. His granddaughter, whom he had never met before, must have some abilities and means to make Master Huo admire her so much. It seems that he will definitely win over her. Maybe that country girl can also bring a lot of benefits to the Duke's Mansion!

"Steward Cao, please go to the inn again and tell the girl that if she wants to do business, she can do it. The government will leave her alone. Let the whole family come back soon!"

Duke An Guo spoke with a kind tone and a kind attitude, as if he loved his cheap granddaughter so much!

"Yes, old slave, let's do it now!"
