Chapter 204 Ethereal Realm
"Shaoshangguan, I have sent these golds according to the orders of my wife. How to control it is up to the youngshangguan himself to decide."
"Thank you, Sister Chunhua, for traveling alone."
"This is what you should do. Shopkeeper, please see if the gold is moved into the house or placed in the yard. It will be bad if it rains later."
"Then please move into the house."
Chunhua immediately called the servants to carry the dozen boxes of gold into the house.
Not long after Chunhua and his men left, it started raining outside again. The heavy rain poured into the pillars. From time to time, you could hear a few roars of thunder.
Gu Shun walked to a box, opened the lid, and looked at the neatly arranged gold inside, and frowned for a moment.
It's useless to have so much gold at once. He is not interested in money, not to mention that his parents have money, and it's enough to spend the money in a place.
I heard that on the street of Fengqing, those sweet-looking birds can only redeem themselves for a few gold. Even the top courtesan of Tinghualou, known as the stunning Jiangnan, only redeem themselves for a thousand gold. With so much money, you might be able to buy half of Fengqing Street.
Thinking of this, Gu Shun quickly gave up this idea.
If he dares to do this, his own mother will not kill him.
It’s better to invest the money and buy an auction house. If you have nothing to do, you can collect some materials and martial arts secrets for yourself. As we all know, auction houses and grocery markets are the easiest places in various worlds to pick up treasures.
If he wants to integrate and create new martial arts, he needs more martial arts materials to achieve it. It would be great if he could open an auction house, conduct auctions on the surface, collect some rare treasures, and secretly do some intelligence collection work.
Just as he was thinking, the little white tiger ran out of the room timidly, came under Gu Shun's heels, and rubbed his ankle with his body.
Gu Shun immediately reached out to pick up the little white tiger, and the little white tiger screamed twice happily.
"Why should I give you a name? What should I call it?"
The little white tiger seemed to understand Gu Shun's words, and also let out a few roars, looking very happy.
"Why just call Xiaobai, be more down-to-earth. When you grow up, you can call Dabai."
When Xiaobai heard Gu Shun's new name, he was obviously stunned for a moment, and then shouted unhappily to protest. He kicked his four short legs hard, as if he didn't like the name.
"Just call it Xiaobai, this name is so good. You say you like it." Gu Shun said with a slight threat.
Xiaobai was pinched by fate's neck. The tiger was under the low wall and had to lower his head and whimper twice, expressing his agreement reluctantly.
Dongdong ~
There was a knock on the door outside the door, and Xiaobai, who was holding Gu Shun, suddenly bared his teeth alertly, revealing his wildness.
Gu Shun touched Xiaobai's tiger head, "Don't scream, this is not a bad person."
As he said that, Gu Shun walked to the door and opened the door.
As soon as the door opened, the wet water vapor was blown in by the wind. It had been raining outside for so long, and the air was already full of water vapor. If it weren't for the charcoal fire in the house, the clothes in the house might have been able to wrung out the water.
The knocking door was Chunhua, the mother's maid, who was standing outside with a lunch box, a greasy paper umbrella, and a rain boots wrapped in sheepskin.
When she saw Gu Shun open the door, she immediately said, "Young shopkeeper, this is a meal made by the wife. In addition, I have already told the kitchen to prepare for the young shopkeeper's pet to eat raw meat every day."
“Have my mother not back yet?”
"Ms. is still at the headquarters of the business bank. Recently, the business bank has a lot of business, so she won't come back for dinner. There are still a lot of business waiting to be processed at night." Qiushi returned.
I don’t have to guess that the business my mother has to deal with when she goes out is definitely related to the plan to retake the Jingzhou General Assembly.
After delivering the meal, Chunhua left again. A servant will come to collect the dishes later. This servant is either an undercover agent placed in Gu's house by the ancient gods or a secret bodyguard specially sent by his father.
Gu Shun has become accustomed to this kind of daily life.
Open the lunch box and the top layer is wrapped with lotus leaves, chopped raw meat, and a bottle of goat milk is placed next to it. It should have been prepared for Xiaobai.
Gu Shun took out the meat wrapped in lotus leaves and placed it on the ground. At the same time, he took out the bottle of goat milk. The bottle was still warm and added warm in advance.
"Eat, eat quickly." Gu Shun pointed to the raw meat placed on the lotus leaves and said to Xiaobai.
Xiaobai looked desperate, looked up at Gu Shun, then lowered his head and sniffed the raw flesh with his nose. He quickly took two steps back and screamed twice.
Looking at Xiaobai's pitiful expression, Gu Shun frowned and said, "Why, you don't want to eat raw meat. That's right, you are only two months old and shouldn't be able to eat meat, so come and drink milk."
After saying that, Gu Shun put the bottle in his hand in front of Xiaobai.
Xiaobai looked at Gu Shun with a eager look, showing a grievance expression.
"What, do you want me to feed you?" Gu Shun's speech like a father-in-law shocked the little white tiger's body. He hurriedly hugged the bottle with his two front paws and started sucking on his own.
"Is that right? You are two months old and it's time to learn to be independent."
Xiaobai glanced at Gu Shun with resentment, as if he was saying that if he hadn't been able to beat him, he would have to suffer this anger.
Gu Shun sat at the table and took out all the remaining dishes on the table. Today, there was half a split charcoal grilled lamb chop.
The lamb chops were roasted on the outside and tender on the inside, and were covered with cumin, which was fragrant.
Since the trade routes in Longxi were cut off, cumin, a spice that was already expensive, has become a luxury. The price of a pound of cumin is already more expensive than a pound of gold.
Xiaobai, who smelled the smell, immediately became energetic. He put down the bottle he grabbed in his hand, came to Gu Shun's feet happily, and shook his tail and looked at the lamb chops in Gu Shun's hand.
Gu Shun was amused by its movements, "Xiaobai, you are a tiger, not a dog, don't wag your tail at all times."
"Aowu~Aowu~" Xiaobai stopped his tail immediately, raised his claws and waved it.
"Do you want the lamb chops in my hand?"
"Ao"
"No, how can a tiger eat cooked meat? It's not good for you."
Xiaobai stared at Gu Shun with his eyes lit up, and was more interested in the lamb chops in his hand than goat milk.
Gu Shun recalled the bacon and roasted lamb in the cave, and suddenly had a bold guess, was it that the roasted lamb was for the tiger to eat.
Thinking of this, Gu Shun threw down a piece of lamb chop with meat, and Xiaobai immediately started to chew with satisfaction.
It was the first time Gu Shun saw a tiger who did not eat raw meat and cooked meat. It seemed that Bai Wuchang had problems, and his children also had problems.
After dinner, Gu Shun hugged Xiaobai and lay on the bed.
Xiaobai yawned, and Gu Shun began to check the ancient god scriptures in the hang-up practice.
Today, at my mother's Yunda Trading Company headquarters, I quit practicing and reminded him that the first level of the ancient god scriptures has been successfully practiced.
Judging from the progress of the entire ancient god scripture, although he did not even reach one percent, Gu Shun could have seen the dawn.
Gu Shun immediately mobilized his strength, recited the mantra silently, and started to operate according to the first level of practice he had learned.
Soon, he entered a state of ethereality.
Countless bubbles in front of me swarmed from the soles of my feet, and Gu Shun's spiritual world seemed to fall into a vast deep sea.
Deep in the sea, a city between illusion and reality shines with unspeakable strange light, quietly sleeping on the seabed.
In the city, countless incredibly large green stones form temples and towering flat-topped towers.
The surface of these stones looks protruding, but in fact they are sunken, and are filled with countless twisted edges and corners, as if there are sinister threats and anxious emotions hidden inside.
Against the backdrop of those bizarre and dazzling stone carvings and magnificent stone statue reliefs, a kind of uncleanness and mystery gradually surrounded Gu Shun like the darkness that swallowed the light.
