章 455: The First Winter (II)

When Gu Xin brought his men and left, he did not just take the tea sets of glassware, a batch of accessories and hair decorations. He also left with a gift Jiang Pengji had prepared for Liu She. The gift wasn't expensive, but won in its heart-felt significance. For instance, there were a few sets of woollen sweaters and trousers to weather the winter, a powerful set of steamboat, a set of two in one tools for barbecue and roasting, and the recipes she copied for the soup base and sauces.

Upon seeing these items, Gu Xin's expression became somewhat passive.

If it weren't for troubled times, the young master would probably supersede the old master in becoming a successful businessman.

Not only would she rise to be Dongqing's richest, perhaps even become the head of five nations, expanding her businesses across the entire nine prefectures and four seas.

What a pity, that the current times were not optimal for this.
