Chapter 701: Unable to Accept the Result of a Broken Egg

ad even bought wine back, she was furious."We don't even have clean water to drink at home, and you still have the heart to buy wine"Old Madam Wu was woken up early by the commotion. Seeing her son be...Gu Liu Sheng did not hide the disappointment in his expression.

Zong Yu's face darkened a few points, Fang Jinxiu could only privately keep rubbing his palm, constantly comforting him.

Unexpectedly, the auctioneer turned out to be a young master, and he looked...well, quite dashing. At first glance, you could tell he was a charming sort.

Well, isn't that right She only got into that single room on the second floor because of her looks.

Zongyu understood his daughter-in-law's meaning, and no matter how annoyed he was with the other person's flippant attitude, he didn't lose his temper.

He merely glanced away.

Gu Liu Sheng watched every move of the two people opposite him, a slight upturn at the corner of his mouth.

It's been a long time since I've seen such an interesting couple.

"Madame Zong, please tell me first why you have come to see me."

Gu Liu Sheng's directness actually put Fang Jin Xiu at ease.

Mr. Gu, actually I had the maid pass along a message asking you to come here because I want to make a deal with you.

As soon as Fang Jinshui's words fell, a burst of gasps and murmurs erupted from the audience below the auction platform.

The person on stage suddenly dropped a hammer, his voice even more excited than usual.

"The VIP bidding for the No. 1 single room is one million taels!"

Even Fu Ming, who was used to large crowds, couldn't help but frown. "To be able to call out like this..."

Fang Jinxiu raised an eyebrow, eh, the difficulty has increased again.

These days, it's really hard to make a living.

But the auction bidding is not yet over.

There's just not much time left for her.

Therefore, Fang Jinshu decided to strike quickly and decisively.

"Mr. Gu, are you looking for a skilled doctor"

Gu Liu Sheng raised an eyebrow, "Continue."

Although he didn't show any particular emotion on his face, a storm was brewing within him.

His search for a renowned doctor had always been kept secret. How did this woman in front of him know about it

"Though I exaggerated when I told the maidservant that my medical skills could revive the dead and turn bones back into flesh, my abilities are actually quite good."

"The deal we've made will result in no losses for Mr. Gu."

Gu Liu Sheng's smile widened, interesting.

"What does Madam Zong want from Mr. Gu"

He glanced down at the audience, "Could it be the 100,000 stones of grain on stage"

Fang Jinshi was not surprised that Gu Liusheng had guessed her, and instead nodded frankly.

"Yes, I'll take this."

"Gu Liu Sheng laughed twice, "Zong Nizi is really good at making jokes."

"An auction house has its own rules, and once something is on the auction block, even I have no right to take it down."

"Besides, listen to the price being offered. It's already over a million taels! Just because of your unsubstantiated claim that it can cure death and revive flesh and bone, why should I give up such a huge sum of money"

Fu Ming was also speechless.

He still thought Fang Jinshu had some kind of trick up her sleeve. One million taels, what was that concept

In this huge Muzhou City, three or two silver coins can buy a life. Does she think she's some renowned divine physician Treating someone's illness warrants a million taels of silver

If he were Gu Liusheng, he wouldn't agree to Fang Jinxiu's absurd deal.

Although Gu Liusheng showed a rejecting attitude, Fang Jinshu didn't get discouraged but instead smiled quietly.

"As I just said, this deal will not result in any losses for Mr. Gu."

"If I cannot cure Mr. Gu's illness, I will pay for all the silver from the sale of the 100,000 shi of grain."

As soon as these words left his mouth, Fu Ming's jaw nearly dropped to the floor.

Who just said she didn't have that much money Is Fang Jinshu crazy

Even Zongyu, who usually believed in his daughter-in-law and remained calm, slightly frowned and looked at his daughter-in-law with worry.

"Splendid."

At this moment, Fang Jinxiu's expression was incredibly relaxed. She raised her hand, her fingertips pressed against Zong Yu's lips.

With a hint of coquettishness, she said, "Husband, remember we agreed you'd listen to me this time."

Zongyu nodded.

Even though my heart is filled with a hundred worries and doubts, I can only choose to believe in Jinxiu.

Gu Liu Sheng shifted his gaze between the two, a smile playing on his lips. "If that's truly the case, then this deal isn't impossible to make."

"That's all."

He hesitated for a moment, his gaze fixed on Fang Jinshu with a more playful glint in his eyes.

"Lady Zong, are you certain that you can come up with one million taels of silver Gu is a businessman and cannot accept an outcome where everything falls apart."nged a glance with her son, as if this was a rule.Elder Cao and the eldest wife had taken so many valuables from here before, let alone supporting him and Mrs. Wu, even with two more people to support...
