Chapter 44 What are these people trying to do!
"Oh, Miss, it's your bet. It sounds like you have bet two million taels of silver. I suspect I have heard it wrong." Xia Zhi widened his eyes in surprise.
Gu Xi shook her head and said she heard it correctly.
She also heard so much money.
Gu Xi's mind was spinning rapidly, wondering what went wrong and how could he spend so much more money!
Because there were too many people, they moved slowly. After a long time, they arrived near the entrance of the gambling house.
As they approached, they saw that the door was filled with various boxes, some of which were opened, revealing the white silver inside. When they were shining under the sun, they could blind people's eyes even if they stared at it.
Xia Zhi let out a scream again, and his eyes that looked at Gu Xi turned into starry eyes, and he admired them extremely much.
Oh, you're a lady. You can get out of such a tsunami like a tsunami after you get out of the marriage.
Gu Xi held his forehead with one hand and looked at the scene in front of him speechlessly.
She knew she was very popular, but that was before her life experience was exposed, and now her reputation was broken, so were these people coming to join in the fun and humiliate her?
But soon, Gu Xi overturned the speculation because she saw Prince An and the Sixth Prince, and the people from Prince Ruyang's Mansion, these people would never come to humiliate her.
Gu Xi also saw many people from the business companies she cooperated with, especially the boxes in front of the honest business companies are the most exaggerated and scary.
Some open boxes contain not only silver, but also a lot of jewelry, jade, antiques, calligraphy and paintings.
Gu Xi was confused.
What are these people trying to do?
I feel that I have too much money, so I show off.
"Miss, what should I do now? I'll go and put some money in place too!" Xia Zhi asked excitedly.
Yesterday she was angrily trying to shout and kill people in the gambling house, but now she is not angry, but feels proud!
This is their lady's card, and she also wants to participate.
"Stop making trouble." Gu Xi glared at her lazily, feeling weak,
"I'll go to the restaurant opposite to find a room to sit down. You can inquire about the situation and then call Hao Dongjia from the honest business to see me."
"Okay, Miss, go and rest. Leave this to me. I'll make sure I'll ask you clearly." Xia Zhi said excitedly.
Gu Xi looked at her shiny eyes, and for a moment, she turned around and left.
After a while, Xia Zhi brought Hao Dong's family to meet Gu Xi with excitement.
When Hao Dong's family saw Gu Xi, they hurriedly bowed, and their attitude was more respectful than before.
Gu Xi flashed a trace of doubt, but she still smiled, lazily and authentic.
"Hao Dong's family doesn't have to be so polite, please take a seat."
"Miss. Thank you!" Hao Dongjia thanked him respectfully before sat down properly.
"Those two million taels, what they bet on is that I successfully broke the engagement?" Gu Xi asked Xia Zhi.
"Yeah, yes! I found out clearly. At the beginning, the people who bet on the Sixth Prince were 50,000 taels, and then Prince An, 60,000 taels.
Next is the 100,000 taels of Ruyang’s Mansion, which is said to be entrusted by Princess Rubao, and Mrs. Song’s 100,000 taels..."
When Gu Xi heard that the Sixth Prince and Prince An had so much escorts, he felt helpless in his heart that these two people were too disobedient and causing trouble for him.
I asked them to bet 10,000 taels, and up to 20,000 taels.
Then I heard Xia Zhi talk about the people who have a good relationship with her bets, and the warmth in my heart became stronger and stronger.
"Miss, our Hao Dong family is really rich and powerful. Other businesses have only custodged 100,000 taels, but they have custodged almost 500,000 taels!
There is also the Medicine King Valley. I heard that the purple-robed deacon appeared and entrusted 500,000 taels to support the lady!”
Xia Zhi looked at Hao Dong's family and admired him. Such a person who is good to the lady has gained her recognition and respect.
Gu Xi knew why the Medicine King Valley wanted to give him face and saved their young master.
But why is Hao Dong's family?
Three years ago, she started the rouge and water powder business, and cooperated with people from the honest business. In recent years, her business has been going well, and the honest business has helped a lot.
Before, she always thought that the other party valued the identity of the legitimate daughter of the Marquis' Mansion, but now she is not the legitimate daughter of the Marquis' Mansion.
Why did the Hao Dong family be more polite to him? It can even be said that he was respectful, as if he was his master.
strangeness.
Gu Xi looked at Hao Dongjia, and was surprised and grateful, but more of it was scrutiny.
"These money is nothing. The lady is extremely smart and has unparalleled wisdom. I believe that following the lady will definitely make money, so we invest so much."
When Gu Xi saw this, Hao Dong's family almost stood up again. While suppressing this impulse, they couldn't help but smile a little stiff.
"Thank you for your attention to Hao Dongjia." Gu Xi seemed to have not noticed his stiffness, his eyes circulated and he joked,
"If I hadn't known my life experience, I would have suspected that I was the daughter of Hao Dong's family who had been separated for many years and was so kind to me."
"Ahem, hehe, Miss, you are so good at joking! What a precious person you are. Don't say that in the future, you can't afford to take care of it..."
The Hao Dong family was almost scared to death, so they quickly stood up, bent down respectfully to salute, and said in fear and fear.
"Hao Dongjia, let's talk about it. I am no longer the daughter of the Marquis' Mansion, why are you still so respectful?" Gu Xi asked lazily,
"For the past three years, you have taken care of me in every way, so why are you doing this?"
"Of course, the lady is excellent enough, so..."
"I don't want to hear lies. If I can tell the truth, I will shake my head if I can't." Gu Xi glanced at him, and a light sentence made Hao Dong's words stop abruptly.
Hao Dongjia smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"The Hao Dong family will never harm me, so I won't ask." Gu Xi smiled lazyly.
"Miss is smart! I have too late to take care of my young lady, so I will never harm you." Hao Dongjia said hurriedly.
Xia Zhi looked at the lady and Hao Dong's family playing the game in a daze, and she was completely confused.
However, it is enough to make sure that Hao Dong’s family won’t harm the lady!
She couldn't figure out the others, so she didn't think about them anymore.
There are things she is more interested in and caring about.
"Miss, have you asked someone to invest in the money? How much did you invest?" Xia Zhi asked with a smile.
"Ten thousand taels." Gu Xi stretched out a finger.
"Oh, Miss, why do you invest such a little? You have to invest at least 50,000 taels. Miss is not without money."
Xia Zhi pouted, thinking that making a little profit would mean a big loss.
Gu Xi glanced at her, "Silly girl, she's so big, I don't know if the marriage can be refunded. Ten thousand taels of silver may be wasted."
Nearly two million taels of silver, many noble bettors, as well as the open master of the gambling house and the villain behind the gambling house, these factors are enough to turn this matter into a power clash.
It would be impossible for her to break off the engagement smoothly.
