At the same time, he silenced the two shameful guys, and Gu Chen let out a sigh of relief.
Then he glanced at Liu Lizhen, who was still kneeling on the ground and bowing her head, and Gu Chen didn't bother to pursue anything.
Seeing that the other party seemed to have sincerely repented, he waved his hand.
'That's enough, and don't let it happen again! If you dare to do it again, don't blame us Gu family for not showing mercy!'
Gu Chen glared at Liu Lizhen and said sternly.
The two were reprimanded by Gu Chen in front of a crowd of people from the same village, but they didn't dare to show the slightest sign of displeasure.
Gu Zhigang understood very well that Gu Chen was helping him again, and Liu Lizhen next to him was also embarrassed and could only nod repeatedly in agreement.
After all, the money they had together was not even enough to pay for a single hair on Gu Chen's head.
If they really angered their third brother, not to mention 300,000 yuan, Gu Zhigang even suspected that he might be able to come up with 3 million yuan.
Gu Chen then turned around and looked at the many villagers gathered around, and his tone softened as he spoke.
'Dear villagers, I apologise on behalf of my disappointing brother and sister-in-law for the joke they have played today. However, there is one point I need to clarify. Gu Zhigang, my brother, has been cheated by a direct sales gang. He is actually a victim, and the gang has long since been brought to justice. As for the money on the ground, it is just compensation for my brother.'
Having said this, Gu Chen took out the verdict he had brought with him.
He then showed it to the villagers. He had to help his brother clear his name. After all, the village was such a small place, and you couldn't live here with a bad reputation!
Many of the villagers who had gathered to watch the fun were also amazed when they looked at the document.
In particular, the 300,000 yuan written on it made them feel envious.
If you can get this much money after being cheated once, wouldn't you be able to eat and drink without worry for the rest of your life if you could get cheated a few more times?
Everyone thought this in their hearts, but they also knew that it was thanks to Gu Chen's help.
Otherwise, not to mention being cheated every day, there would have been many more people who had been robbed, and no one would have ever been able to make so much money.
For a time, their awe of Gu Chen unconsciously increased many times over.
...
It wasn't until all the matters here had been settled that Gu Chen finally drove back to his home in Haicheng.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Ji Bianran holding the phone and talking to someone.
Gu Chen didn't disturb him, silently changed his shoes, and held his daughter and went inside to play for a while.
Then he took the vegetables he bought on the way back and went to the kitchen to cook.
After a while, Ji Bianran couldn't help but peek out of the kitchen door and look at her husband, who was busy focusing on them at the moment.
A gentle smile appeared on her face, and she said softly to him:
'Gu Chen, just now Dad called and said that the situation in Chuancheng has stabilised in all aspects.
The batch of wolfberries you sent there sold like hot cakes. They are now not only used as medicinal herbs, but have even been packaged as high-end snacks.
This time, just the sales share of this batch of wolfberries is 150,000 yuan.'
Gu Chen couldn't help but be quite surprised when he heard this. He originally thought that at most there would be 100,000 yuan.
It seems that retail profits are indeed the greatest.
But then he saw Ji Bianran's face, which had become even more beautiful and delicate because of her happiness.
He couldn't help reaching out and embracing her in his arms, before smiling and saying:
'To be honest, it's thanks to your help, Dad, and the Ji family's sales channels in Sichuan City.
Without all that, even if I tried harder, I definitely wouldn't have sold so much.
You really are an angel sent from heaven to save me.'
Ji Bianran blushed as she heard this, and pouted.
'You just say nonsense to please me, I'm not some kind of angel.'
Gu Chen couldn't help but laugh out loud at this.
Ji Bianran's heart was both sweet and shy, and she couldn't help but give his chest a little tap before continuing.
'Dad said on the phone that he'll be in Haicheng in an hour, so don't forget to pick him up.'
Gu Chen froze for a moment upon hearing this, as if he hadn't expected his father-in-law to be so decisive.
The two of them had only talked about this on the phone a few days ago, and yet when they called again, he was almost about to get off the plane.
Although there was originally no need to make any extra preparations, Gu Chen's heart was still inevitably a little nervous.
Ji Pianran had always been extremely clever, and as soon as he saw Gu Chen's expression, he had already guessed his mood.
He couldn't help but say something to comfort him.
'Come on, my father is actually a very nice person. Usually, he treats you, his son-in-law, better than he treats me.
This time is just a simple meal, there won't be any other problems.'
Gu Chen couldn't help but scratch his head when he heard this. He felt that what his wife said was indeed the case.
And to be honest, they already have a daughter together, so there really wasn't anything to be nervous about.
Afterwards, they had a simple but warm lunch at home, and waited until everything was tidied up.
Gu Chen got into the car and drove with Ji Bianran and their daughter, Tang Tang, towards the airport.
When they arrived, it happened that Ji Guangsheng's plane had just landed.
Gu Chen got out of the car and hurriedly went up to greet him, while Ji Bianran followed behind him, holding their daughter, Tang Tang.
The three of them walked all the way to the entrance of the passenger plane's gangway.
When Ji Guangsheng walked out of the cabin door, his eyes fell almost immediately on Ji Pianran, and his eyes were full of love.
Seeing his father-in-law walk out, Gu Chen also smiled and greeted him.
'Dad, you're here.'
Ji Guangsheng patted Gu Chen's shoulder with a look of relief. In fact, at the beginning,
he was not satisfied with this peasant son-in-law, but now he has seen that it only took a few months for him to
and has saved up such a family business in Haicheng, which has made him change his impression of Gu Chen quite a bit.
Moreover, the batch of wolfberries he sent to Chuancun before also helped the Ji family establish a reputation in the Chinese medicine market in Chuancun.
This made him even more satisfied with Gu Chen's performance.
'Grandpa, it's Grandpa~'
And after seeing Ji Guangsheng in Ji Pianran's arms, Tangtang also suddenly exclaimed excitedly.
Then she jumped out of Ji Pianran's arms and ran all the way to Ji Guangsheng's arms, cooing like a baby.
'Ouch, ouch, ouch,
He felt in his heart that his granddaughter was indeed the most well-behaved, cute, and lovable!
Then, with a slight force in his hands, he directly embraced his granddaughter, who was as delicate as a piece of jade.
He then waved his hand behind him, and immediately, an attendant from the Ji family walked forward.
He gave Tang Tang the gift that Ji Guangsheng had prepared earlier.
