Chapter 101 Bribery (two more)
In order to verify his identity, the youth also took out a token of his house.
is not a bronze medal, but an iron medal engraved with lines.
Gu Jiao has not been here for a long time. On weekdays, she has contact with folks in the village, and she has very little contact with large families, but she also knows that such tokens have a very strict control system in Zhaoguo. .
Usually large families can only use wooden cards, and then the fish-bone cards. Only official bodies can use iron cards.
The iron plate of the official body has the emblem of Zhaoguo official mansion behind it, but this iron plate obviously does not.
There is only one possibility, although the opponent is not official, but the background may even be bigger than the official body.
”Jiaojiao?” Xiao Jingkong looked at Gu Jiao with a puzzled look. He was still young and didn't understand what was going on.
Gu Jiao touched his little head, and said to the young man: ”Okay, I'll go with you.” Then he said to Xiao Jingkong, ”Go to my aunt.”
”Don't don't!” Xiao Jingkong shook his head like a rattle. These days, I have been in private school every day, and I have no time to play with Jiaojiao. After a day off, he will become Jiaojiao's little tail!
Gu Jiao looked at him with big expectant eyes, but finally did not refuse: ”Okay.”
The young man smiled and made a gesture: ”Please!”
Gu Jiao first went to the next door and confessed to Xue Ningxiang, asking her to take care of the house, and then she and Xiao Jingkong got into the carriage prepared by the youth, and the youth himself was riding a horse to follow.
The carriage quickly arrived at the only tea house in town.
The owner of this tea shop is from the provincial capital. It is said that he has a good background. On weekdays, the people who visit the house are all famous people in the town. However, today the tea shop is empty, and it seems that he has been booked.
The other party is really generous.
Gu Jiao and Xiao Jingkong were led by the youth into an elegant and unique wing.
The youth gave the servant tea and snacks.
He seems to be very attentive to Gu Jiao. If he changes to an ordinary person, I am afraid that he will be a little airy, but Gu Jiao is very calm.
As the saying goes, everything goes to the Palace of the Three Treasures. If something goes wrong, there must be a demon. Her current status can't afford to be waited on like this.
The young man said: ”Lady Xiao, please wait a moment, I'll go and ask Mr. Zhou to come.”
Gu Jiao gave a hum.
The young man’s politeness towards him was superficial. Gu Jiao could feel the contempt in his bones, but Gu Jiao didn’t force it. Some people went blind at a young age. It was his loss and not hers.
The young man did not take a small village woman too much in his eyes, especially when Gu Jiao was so ugly, he even dismissed it.
Only the manager explained to him that he must be treated with courtesy to the talented lady, and there must be no slightest inconvenience.
The young man turned around and asked to take care of his own affairs.
Zhou manager came very quickly.
Is someone who can manage things, his expression management is much better than that of young people, at least the smile on his face looks very sincere.
Gu Jiao took a tray of snacks on the table and handed it to Xiao Jingkong: ”Go to the yard to play for a while, I will talk to someone.”
”Well, good!” Xiao Jingkong jumped off the wooden bench, took the snack plate, and slid out.
The window is open, and Gu Jiao sits in a position to have a panoramic view of the entire courtyard.
Xiao Jingkong found a small stone bench to sit down and shook her short legs while eating. Yuemo noticed that Gu Jiao was watching him, he turned his head and smiled sweetly at Gu Jiao!
Gu Jiao also smiled, he was so happy that he flew up, and continued to eat snacks.
Guan Shi waited patiently for the siblings to finish interacting with each other before stepping forward and arching his hands at Gu Jiao: ”Zhou has seen Lady Xiao.”
Gu Jiao didn't stand up to meet him, nor was she flattered, she just nodded her head in a calm manner.
Director Zhou was a little surprised. He looked at Gu Jiao up and down, as if she was just an ordinary village girl in terms of clothes and appearance, and even because of her disability, she should be more inferior and embarrassed than ordinary women.
However, instead of her, she has an illusion that she is unattainable.
Manager Zhou settled down, and said to Gu Jiao: ”Lady Xiao, I am from the Lin family in the provincial capital. Have you ever heard of the Lin family?”
”Never.” Gu Jiaoyan said concisely.
Zhou Guanshi was surprised, is this girl a local? Why haven't you heard of the Lin family? The Lin family was the Tu Emperor in Youzhou, and even Master Zhou Mu had to give the Lin family three points of face.
The Lin family was born as a salt transporter. In the early days, they sold illegal salt and set up their own salt gang. The court sent troops to attack the salt gang, but both suffered losses. Later, the court adopted the policy of recruiting security to incorporate the salt gang.
Although was incorporated, the salt gang was still governed by the Lin family, but the silver obtained from the salt transport was evenly divided with the court.
And the salt gang shall no longer bully the people, search for the people's fat, and if necessary, they must assist the court in suppressing the water bandits.
Manager Zhou explained the origin of the Lin family, and then began to wait for Gu Jiao to be surprised.
