These people were just asking for a beating. They had to suffer a beating before they were willing to cooperate obediently. It was unknown if they were fond of being physically abused.
As expected, the boss nodded hurriedly. “Please ask.”
“Since you guys went to Gu’s, what did you find out?”
The boss swallowed his saliva. His answer was exceptionally concise. “We didn’t ask around. It was Steward Zhou from the Zhou Mansion who told us about Miss’s family.” As he spoke, he looked at her carefully. “Steward Zhou said that Miss’s family only came from a small county city below. She doesn’t have any status or background. She opened a shop in the county city called Gu’s. Now that her business has expanded, she plans to open a shop in the prefectural city.”
“Apart from these, is there anything else?”
The boss hurriedly shook his head. “No, Steward Zhou only said that Miss doesn’t have any backing.”
This was enough. Moreover, in just a few days, the information he could obtain was really limited.
At most, he knew that Gu Yundong had opened a shop in the countryside and had a few family members.
They probably did not even find out that Gu Yundong was once a refugee, right?
“Huh? Huh??”
Gu Yundong’s gaze was dangerous. “I told you to come over. Don’t worry, I won’t hit you.”
Gu Yundong narrowed her eyes when she saw that his eyes were darting around. He definitely did not intend to listen to her. “If you don’t come, I’ll settle scores with you later.”
The local hooligan was speechless. He had never seen anyone who was in a hurry to invite trouble to themselves. Was this girl crazy?
“If you come, you can still earn some money from Steward Zhou. Isn’t that good?”
When the local hooligan heard this, he realized that it made sense. Anyway, this girl had promised not to hit them. They could still earn some money. Why not?
Besides, when the time came, they would stand far away and just pretend to be there.
He was dreaming. Gu Yundong sneered and finally stood up. “Alright, our shop will open in four days. Remember to come.”
With that, she left with Tong Shuitao.
As soon as she got into the carriage, Tong Shuitao couldn’t help but ask, “Miss, the Steward Zhou that that person mentioned is the person who came to cause trouble for our shop last time?”
