Chapter 1146
1146 Chunnan city
September passed by quickly and Gu Xin and Gu SI’s accounts were almost cleared.
The two sisters were free again.
The weather in kun city in October was similar to that in Qing Province in October. Uncle Gu was still not used to it when he came back. The weather was very good over there where he was farming.
Gu shouxin had already officially marked the new city. On the day uncle Gu returned, the family sat down for a meal. Gu shouxin also called for more money and grain.
Huo Junhao and Huo Yanyu usually ate at the Gu residence, but Qian Liangduo and Hu Liang had to settle their own problems. They were too embarrassed to always eat at the Gu residence.
The main reason Gu shouxin called for money and grain was to discuss the name of the new city.
The people who were building the city had all arrived there. In the future, they couldn’t call each other that way. They had to have a name.
The Gu family did not have the rule of not speaking when eating or sleeping. The whole family started talking at the dinner table, and even Gu Ren also gave his opinion.
In the end, after one round, there was always someone who was not satisfied.
After a few bowls of rice, uncle Gu was almost done. Hearing that everyone was not satisfied with what they said, he also had the heart to voice his own opinion.”I think the weather there is very good. I’ve been there since the first month of the lunar year and the temperature hasn’t changed much. It wouldn’t be too much to have spring all year round! There’s another river over there, and the southern border is called Nanhe. Why don’t we just call it chunnan city? It was very appropriate! we are just ordinary people. We can understand it easily, unlike little rat and little pincer, who are so refined. We are a city. How can we not understand it without some knowledge? ” Isn’t that specially built for you scholars? This city was built for the common people. Chunnan city, how nice it sounds! In the future, when second brother developed kunzhou and chunnan city reached a certain population, it would become South County. How nice would that sound? I don’t think there’s anyone with the same name in the entire great Zhou!”
Everyone at the table looked at uncle Gu.
Well, we’re not used to you talking so seriously.
Uncle Gu,”what?” No way? If it didn’t work, then forget it. Forget I said anything. I’ll continue eating, you guys can continue talking!”
With that, uncle Gu started to eat again.
“I think it’s okay,” Grandpa Gu looked at Gu shouxin.
“Yes,” grandma Gu replied.
“&Uncle Gu, you’re right!” Huo Junhao agreed.
Gu Xin: ” it’s nice. It’s appropriate!
Gu shouxin said,’alright, then I’ll name it this way! Huo Junhao, let’s try to turn chunnan city into South County as soon as possible. So, in the last few months of this year, the two of you will take turns to keep an eye on the progress in chunnan city!”
“Yes, my lord.” Qian Liangduo replied solemnly. This official will do his best!”
Huo Junhao glanced at the money and food pile and replied gloomily, ” “Zhenzhen is, my Lord.”
Second uncle was really too much. He could have just let old Qian go alone! Old Qian is such a pitiful man. He has no father, no mother, no brothers, and no assets. You should give him more opportunities to do practical things so that he can be promoted faster!
Calling me along, isn’t this asking me to take the credit? There are too many high-ranking officials in the Huo family, I’m not one of them!
Of course, Huo Junhao only dared to complain in his heart. He did not dare to say it to Gu shouxin. The last time he muttered this, Gu shouxin heard him and arranged a job for him. After that, he almost broke his legs from running around for half a month. So, he remembered that he could not say what he was thinking in his heart in the future.
His second uncle was no longer the uncle from the village. He was now his direct superior!
