The Lucky Star is Sweet and Wild
Chapter 213: Suddenly Rich
CHAPTER 213: CHAPTER 213: SUDDENLY RICH
Gu Nian’s family in her past life ran a chain of hotels. Although she had never been involved in the management, she was definitely confident in making a restaurant successful.
Of course, the main point was that she had confidence in her family’s passed-down culinary skills, and the variety of exotic ingredients temporarily undiscovered in her space.
Gu Nian searched many places in her space, finding countless rare species and precious herbs. The animals she bred in her space each occupied a large territory.
The crux of the matter was that Qingshan Town was neither too big nor too small, and she thought it would be quite difficult to secretly exchange goods for money without her family finding out.
After all, any slight disturbance within a ten miles radius could easily be spread far and wide.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck Gu Nian’s mind.
She didn’t have money, but Nan Jin Yu did!
She didn’t have money, but she could persuade Nan Jin Yu to invest!
Such a great idea, how had she not thought of it earlier?
And if Nan Jin Yu was willing to invest, she wouldn’t have to worry about Zheng Shaochen causing trouble secretly.
Speaking of Zheng Shaochen, Gu Nian felt a gnawing frustration towards him.
The little rascal was utterly unruly. Wasn’t she recognized as a sister by Nan Jin Yu? While always claiming to admire his cousin, why was he so harsh on her?
With a plan in her mind, Gu Nian immediately took some silver and left the space.
She only thought about persuading Nan Jin Yu to invest, perhaps due to his consistent kindness towards her, it never crossed her mind whether Nan Jin Yu would actually be willing to invest.
Gu Nian arrived at the main house, where Lin Sanshui and his wife were fiddling with a box of silver, looking at it and realizing they were still far from their goal of a thousand taels.
Just as they were sighing in exasperation, Gu Nian knocked and entered, "Dad, Mom, what are you doing?"
"Isn’t it all because of you, you silly girl. You never discuss your decisions with the family first. One thousand taels of silver, how can our family manage that!" But the deposit had already been paid, not coming up with fifty taels would just be giving it away for nothing, which made Mrs. Jiang’s heart ache.
Gu Nian placed the wooden box in her hand before them, "It’s my fault, I was just provoked by that Zheng Shaochen. Don’t worry, I’m not foolish enough to buy a restaurant without any certainty!"
As he spoke, Lin Sanshui was already shuffling through the silver in the box.
The bits and pieces were what they had earned over this period. Gu Nian had about three hundred taels, but when she picked up the silver note, it dumbfounded Lin Sanshui, "Daughter, how much is this silver note for? Where did you get it?"
He had seen the silver note last time, similar to this one, but the writing seemed different, which he noticed.
Gu Nian pointed at the writing on it and said, "This is for five hundred taels. As for where it came from...who else but Young Master Nan would have the ability to pull out 500 taels at once?"
"Young Master Nan?" Lin Sanshui couldn’t help but be suspicious, "Why would he give you so much silver?"
Even if he had money, he wouldn’t casually hand out so much, would he?
"Of course... Young Master Nan has a keen eye and believes that with my culinary skills, opening a restaurant will definitely be profitable, so he invested in our restaurant!" Although she hadn’t actually asked Nan Jin Yu yet, that didn’t stop her from using him as an excuse.
Otherwise, if her family knew she had already contacted Gu Bei, it’d probably frighten them terribly.
