Chapter 97

"Husband, when did you rent this warehouse?"

Seeing Gu Jinchen leading her into the provincial capital, heading straight for this alley, taking out a key and saying they could just put the eggs in here, she was truly a bit confused.

She hadn't seen him go out much, so when did he rent a warehouse?

She had planned to find a secluded place along the way to transfer them onto the carriage, just to put on a show for the villagers without revealing too much.

"Ahem, it's not rented," Gu Jinchen cleared his throat and scratched his head.

"You bought it?"

Gu Jinchen nodded silently.

Upon hearing this, Luo Ge turned to look at the courtyard, no small space, at least seven or eight hundred square meters, and being located in the provincial capital, it certainly wasn't cheap.

Luo Ge: "......"

Without a word, she took out the eggs she had prepared from her space and placed them in the warehouse, putting some in the carriage as well, silently waiting for Gu Jinchen's explanation.

"Ahem, it's not just this property..." Seeing her reaction, Gu Jinchen cleared his throat again and slowly spoke.

"???"

"There are also a few restaurants. You mentioned before that you wanted to start a restaurant business."

"All in the provincial capital?"

"There are some in the provincial capital, and some in the town..."

Seeing his uneasy and soft-spoken manner, Luo Ge couldn't sit still anymore.

She leaned in close to him, a look of confusion on her face.

"Hmm... are these businesses run by your former friends?"

She remembered that the money he had initially given her included a portion from the profits he earned doing business with his brothers during his time away.

Gu Jinchen nodded silently: "His business is doing quite well, and should be on par with Fuxin by now."

As he spoke, he took out a bundle of silver notes from his pocket, all large one-thousand-tael bills (I looked it up, and it seems there were such high-denomination bills, so let's go with that, convenient to carry).

Luo Ge gave it a rough glance, and there were probably a few dozen bills.

"Wife, you manage these."

"........." Silence once again.

That friend had been doing business for two or three years now, and when Gu Jinchen returned, he didn't have much success yet, with only a few hundred taels as Gu Jinchen's share of the profits.Visitt novelbin(.)co/m for the latest updates

But now, it had multiplied many times over.

It was only recently that he received the silver notes and letter sent by that friend that he became aware of this.

He and that brother had shared a life-saving bond, having saved each other's lives before.

Back then, due to an injury, that friend had left the military to start a business, and aside from sending some money back home, Gu Jinchen had invested the rest with him.

At the time, he didn't expect it to yield such a great return.

Luo Ge: "......"

It was common for regular eggs to break during transportation, but those from the space had an extremely low chance of breaking.

Yet when cracked open, there didn't seem to be much difference.

Perhaps this was just a small quirk of the space's products?

After all, unusual things from the space were nothing new, the space's products being unusual was the norm.

"Okay."

She had taken out quite a lot, requiring five carriage trips, and it took several trips before they were done, with the moon high in the sky by the final trip.

"Next time, we won't go this far, we can just transfer them halfway."

"One of these days, we'll find time to bring out some chicken chicks and grown chickens from the space and send them to the village. It'll be more convenient once the farm in the village is set up."

"Mm-hmm, okay."

After a busy day, Luo Ge was starting to nod off.

Listening to her murmured words, Gu Jinchen responded seriously.

By the time they returned to the room, she had fallen into a deep sleep.

After tucking her in, Gu Jinchen stepped out to find Dababao and Erhabao standing at the door, looking at him expectantly.

"Uncle, Auntie has fallen asleep?" Their voices were low, not wanting to disturb Luo Ge.

"Mm-hmm," Gu Jinchen responded, reaching out to ruffle their hair.

"Have you two eaten? Are you hungry?"

When they had returned earlier, the two little ones hadn't come back from the study hall yet, so Luo Ge had simply prepared some food and left it in the kitchen before going out again.

"Mm-hmm, we've eaten."

"We obediently ate what was left in the kitchen."

Hearing his words, the two little kids obediently nodded.

"Hmm, then let me draw some water for you, wash up and go back to sleep."

"Okay, Uncle, have you and Auntie Luo Ge eaten?"

They were all aware of Luo Ge's condition, during this period she was prone to hunger, so they had to keep some snacks on hand. After dinner, she still needed to eat something before going to bed at night.

Otherwise, she would easily get hungry in the middle of the night.

"I'll make some porridge and keep it warm, so she can eat it when she wakes up. You don't need to worry."

"Okay." Hearing this, the two little kids were reassured. After Gu Jinchen drew water for them and they washed up, they obediently went back to rest.

"Uncle, Auntie Luo Ge is pregnant, so you two shouldn't overwork yourselves next time."

Before going to sleep, the two little kids didn't forget to remind them, their hearts also thinking about it.

The older and younger babies will grow up soon, so just wait a little longer.

Listening to the two little kids sounding like little adults, Gu Jinchen was amused and his heart warmed.

"Okay, Uncle will remember."

When he was as little as them back then, he probably only ate and played, and was quite naughty...
