Chapter 48 City Village
Then, register, get a sword, clothing, token...
After completing the procedures, Jin Buhuan patted Gu Ming on the shoulder: "Okay, today you should get familiar with the environment first. Come here early tomorrow morning, and there will be a case for you to handle."
Gu Ming responded and said, "Catcher Jin, this time I came here and brought a... little girl, so I want to find a place to settle down first."
"Little girl?"
"Yes, it's hard to describe it. Let's go back and explain it slowly."
Jin Buhuan nodded in understanding: "Well, you are not familiar with Gusu City either... Zhu Ba, come here!"
"Master Captain..." A fat and strong detective, about thirty years old, ran over quickly.
"You don't have to be on duty today, accompany Gu Bantuo out to find a place to stay."
"Yes, I guarantee to complete the task!"
As soon as he left the government office, Zhu Badun became warm.
"Hehe, Gu Bantuo, the youngest surname is Zhu and his name is Ba. I will ask Bantuo to take care of him in the future."
Gu Ming smiled: "It's easy to say."
"I heard from Captain Jin that you have solved several strange cases in Linjiang County, which is really admirable..."
"There are many cases in Gusu Mansion. I believe that Banto Gu will definitely show his skills..."
After taking a few strokes, Zhu Ba's wind turned and lowered his voice: "Gu Bantu, it's a small matter to provoke right and wrong. Some situations you just came here are still unclear... In short, you must be careful of Hou San in the future..."
"Oh? What's wrong with him?"
"Before you came, everyone thought he would be short of thousands of team leaders, but the result is..."
Hearing this, Gu Ming couldn't help but see a tall and thin man with black hemorrhoids on his face.
At that time, this guy's eyes were a little cold, and it was Hou San.
"Okay, thank you for your reminder. By the way, does he have any background?"
"He has a good relationship with Lord Zhong, who is in charge of Nanjian..."
"Yes!" Gu Ming nodded thoughtfully.
Generally speaking, most local prisoners are in charge of history, which is almost the same as the warden.
However, the Gusu Prefecture is large in scale, so the Nanshang Supervisory Supervisory Supervisory Supervisory Supervisory Supervisory Supervisor is a small official of the ninth rank.
Although he is a young official, he is a real fat man. He doesn't know how much money he has made in a year, which makes many people jealous.
"Well, Gu Bantu, just listen, just pretend that the young man has never said it..."
"Haha, I understand!" Gu Ming smiled meaningfully.
"By the way, Gu Bantu, what kind of residence are you going to find? Are there any special requirements?"
Gu Ming thought for a while and said, "It's nothing special. First, you can't be too far away from the government office. Second, you can't be too noisy. The more pure the better."
"Then...why should I take you to a place first?"
"Yes, but I want to go back to the inn first..."
After all, Mu Qianxun was still alone in the inn, and Gu Ming was not relieved.
Then, the two of them came to the inn together.
As soon as Gu Ming came back, Mu Qianxun rushed forward: "Brother-in-law, are you taking someone out for fun?"
"Well, go find your residence first, and then take you around again."
"whee……"
Qianxun was very excited and jumped out of the room holding Gu Ming's hand.
"Oh, Gu Bantu, is this... your sister?"
"Yeah!" Gu Ming responded perfunctorily, paid the house and followed Zhu Ba to the west of the city.
Along the way, Mu Qianxun looked around and exclaimed from time to time.
Although she was considered pampering since she was a child, the environment was relatively closed. Have you ever seen such a prosperous scene?
Unexpectedly, as I walked, the environment began to become desolate.
The low straw sheds, mud walls, vegetable fields, rivers, woods, chickens and ducks foraging outside... seem to have arrived in the countryside.
"That... Gu Bantu, don't mind.
It looks like a countryside, but it is not far from the government office.
The environment is also clean, and it is very convenient to eat some side dishes. Moreover, the rent here is much cheaper than in the city."
Upon hearing this, Mu Qianxun couldn't help but pout: "Brother-in-law, I don't want to live here."
Gu Ming didn't say anything, looked around, then pulled her aside and said with his ears: "Don't forget that you are still carrying a little white fox. Isn't this just right? It can still stroll in the forest for a walk."
"All right……"
Qianxun didn't insist and responded barely.
So Gu Ming smiled at Zhu Ba and said, "It's OK here, but I need a small independent courtyard."
"Some, some, follow me..."
Obviously, Zhu Ba was prepared and took Gu Ming and the others along the river for a while, then crossed the bridge to a yard with a locked door.
"Huh? Why are you, the head of the family..."
Diagonally opposite, a woman walked out with a basin of clothes. She was stunned when she saw Zhu Ba.
"Ha, osmanthus...Come here, hey, put down the basin... Gu Bantou, this is the villain's wife Osmanthus. Osmanthus, this is the new Gu Bantou..."
Guihua walked over shyly, wiped her hands around her waist, and then gave a blessing: "I have met Gu Bantu."
"Haha, Sister Guihua doesn't have to be too polite... Zhu Ba, is it true that you are planning to let me live opposite your house?"
"Well, don't get me wrong. This is a complete coincidence. You said you were going to find a quiet place, and this yard was just vacated last month."
Gu Ming smiled: "It won't be that coincidence. This yard belongs to yours?"
"No, no!" Zhu Ba waved his hand quickly: "This is the courtyard of Aunt Zhu San's youngest son. The boy went to the north with his wife. The courtyard was empty and empty, so it would be better to rent a few small money."
"Oh...how much does it rent in that year?"
"The last time the foreign customer agreed to pay three taels of silver a year. I can help with peace and harmony, maybe it can be less."
It's indeed cheap.
Although this yard doesn't look big, it is a separate courtyard after all, and is located in Gusu Prefecture City.
If it weren't for such a remote area, I would probably be able to rent seven or eight taels of silver a year.
Gu Ming nodded readily: "Okay, then please tell me."
"Ban Too Gu, you are too polite. These are all things that young people should do... Guihua, why are you still standing there? Go and call Aunt San here."
"Oh, let's go..."
Not long after, Guihua came over with an old woman.
With Zhu Ba and his wife helping to negotiate, Aunt Zhu San was very happy and finally decided to rent 2 taels and 5 cents a year, and pay it every six months.
After opening the yard gate, Gu Ming visited and was basically satisfied.
Two rooms, a kitchen, a main hall, a thatched cottage, and a patio are enough.
There are furniture, beds, stoves, etc., but there is no quilt or the like.
Pay the bank and turn the key, and the yard is temporarily under Gu Ming's jurisdiction.
Then, I went out to buy quilts and daily necessities...
At the same time, I took this opportunity to take Mu Qianxun for a long time, ate a lot of snacks, and bought some small accessories for her.
Now Qianxun is finally satisfied and stops making any comments.
However, through the influence of her, she also realized a truth: if you want to eat, drink, play, and enjoy, you must have money.
So he pestered Gu Ming to give her money and said that he would pay it back twice in the future...
Chapter completed!
