Chapter 1209: Gilding His Own Face

Scraping together, it took three days, and Gu Yiyang finally scraped together five thousand taels of silver.

According to his own confession, he also found fox friends and dog friends to turn around more than a thousand taels of silver, and he had to hurry up to repay the money after getting out of prison.

Chen Guanlou let it go in the left ear and out the right ear, completely not taking it to heart, and not sympathizing with the other party.

People are sitting in prison, and they can borrow more than a thousand taels of silver just by opening their mouths; what is there to sympathize with. Ordinary people encounter difficulties, want to find someone to borrow money to turn around, and can't even borrow a tael of silver.

When he first wanted to work in the Heavenly Prison, he dug three feet into the ground at home, scraped together, and almost went to sell himself, before he barely scraped together ten taels of silver to send gifts. For this, he ate porridge for half a month, so thin that he could see the bottom of the bowl.

The difference between people is even greater than the difference between people and dogs.

After taking the money, things have to be done.

One thing doesn't bother two masters, still looking for Wang Hai. Anyway, he was familiar with the road.

Wang Hai got the news, and in the middle of the night, he ran to the Heavenly Prison to meet the appointment sneakily.

Chen Guanlou specially prepared a portion of wine and food waiting.

Seeing the other party, he said first, "Why every time we meet, the time is set in the middle of the night. It's like being a thief. Can't it be earlier?"

Wang Hai poured half a pot of tea first, "You think I don't want to leave the palace earlier? If it's not a rest day, you are not allowed to leave the palace on duty. If discovered, you will be beaten to death directly. There are many people and eyes during the day, and I don't know when errands will come to the door. Only at night, when everyone is asleep, can I leave the palace."

"You are a ninth-rank martial artist, are you still afraid of being discovered? Is there no right to leave the palace freely?"

"The palace has its own rules, even Eunuch Wei wants to leave the palace, he has to say it in advance, so that there is a statement and a place to go when the Emperor summons. I am a mere ninth-rank, what do I count as. As for being discovered, there is more than one ninth-rank martial artist in the palace, those old guys are gloomy, I try not to provoke them."

Chen Guanlou didn't expect the volume in the palace to be so fierce.

The ninth-rank martial artists who are rarely seen outside are all in the palace. A dignified ninth-rank martial artist, taken outside, any sect would treat him as a guest of honor. In the palace, he can only shrink his head and feet and honestly work.

Anyway, the ninth-rank martial artists in the palace are far less valuable than the ninth-rank martial artists outside!

Chen Guanlou bared his teeth, both disgusted and feeling worthless for the other party.

"With your aptitude and cultivation, out of the palace, any sect or noble family would treat you as a guest of honor. As a result, you are guarding the palace and being used as a slave. Tell me, what are you after?"

Wang Hai snorted coldly, "You don't understand the things in the palace, don't talk nonsense."

Eunuchs have the pursuit of eunuchs.

Just because of the cultivation resources provided to their group of martial artist eunuchs every month in the palace, and the power mastered after rising, and the resources and wealth obtained through power, it is worth them staying in the palace.

Like him, a top-notch aptitude person, can be said to be one in ten thousand. Very likely to break through the Grandmaster realm. By then, the resources he can get, the power he masters, the third-rank officials in the court can't compare. All this, how can it be compared by outside sects and noble families.

He is at the center where the world's resources are concentrated, so why should he abandon the near and seek the far. As for working, no matter where you go, you have to pay a price, he doesn't mind working in the palace.

Chen Guanlou clicked his tongue, "Looking at your appearance, your days in the palace recently are not bad, you must have gained benefits. Otherwise, you should be cursing the imperial palace with me."

Wang Hai showed a coy, embarrassed, and shy look of being guessed, "It's indeed quite smooth recently. So don't say how bad the palace is in front of me in the future, just like I never say how bad the Heavenly Prison is in front of you."

"Fine! I wish you a bright future! Come, have a drink!" Chen Guanlou followed the trend. The other party ate the benefits, why should he be chirping and annoying people on the side. Making friends, the key is to seek common ground while reserving differences, don't think about teaching, don't be self-righteous.

He learned the lesson!

The two drank a cup, and Chen Guanlou then talked about today's business.

"The Emperor's brother-in-law, the noble concubine's brother, Gu Yiyang, has lived in the Heavenly Prison for more than half a year. Winter is coming soon, think of a way to let him get out of prison. This matter can be handled, right. Money is not a problem."

Wang Hai frowned, "Why are you taking on this kind of thing again. Last time it was Xiao Changsheng, this time it's Gu Yiyang, don't you feel tired?"

"Will you dislike having too much money?" Chen Guanlou complained, "You just say, can this matter be handled?"

"What about the Gu family?" Wang Hai ate peanuts and asked puzzled.

"Gu Yiyang is just a small cabbage, with older brothers above and younger brothers below, plus someone making trouble, no one in the family cares about his situation. This is not it, begging to my front, counting on me to walk the door to fish him out. I thought about it, my door only has you, Brother Wang, we are brothers of different fathers and mothers, this business definitely can't forget you. Look how thoughtful I am, always thinking of you, fearing you have no money to spend."

Chen Guanlou, while talking about things, did not forget to gild his own face.

Clearly, he was the one asking for help, but after he said this, it became Wang Hai asking for his help. Counting on him to make money to live. Directly reversed the cause and effect.

Wang Hai didn't dismantle it either. He ate vegetables and drank wine while pondering this matter.

"Gu Yiyang looks like Xiao Changsheng, both are the Emperor's brothers-in-law. But, in fact, these two are very different. Xiao Changsheng, aside from having a noble concubine sister, can also speak in front of the Emperor, and is quite favored by the Emperor. In the final analysis, the Emperor has him in his heart.

Gu Yiyang, in front of the Emperor, can't even speak, and the Emperor might not even remember that he has this number, and the noble concubine is not favored, just relying on the family background to wrestle with the noble concubine in the harem. This matter is not easy to handle!"

Wang Hai looked worried.

Chen Guanlou raised the wine pot and poured wine for the other party, "For others, this matter is difficult to handle, but for Brother Wang, there must be a way. Brother Wang, although the cash that the Gu fellow can take out is not much, the family has money. After he gets out of prison, let him sell the ornaments in the room to make up the balance. This money is divided into two, how about it?"

Wang Hai was a little moved.

The Gu family is big, the accumulation of generations, there are countless good things. If Gu Yiyang has the guts, just take a few valuable antiques, calligraphy, and paintings, it is enough for everyone to eat and drink, and earn a big one. Just in time for the New Year, spend a fat New Year.

He weighed it left and right, and had been pondering in his mind.

Chen Guanlou saw that he was moved, so he made persistent efforts, "Who can dislike having too much money. You are smooth in the palace now, but it also means there are more places to spend money.

Don't find a few more sources of wealth, just rely on the filial piety of that group of little eunuchs in the palace, how much can you do, how many cultivation resources can you buy. If you promise me, tomorrow I will run to the Jade Spring Palace for you and buy a few high-quality pills, how about it?"

Wang Hai, upon hearing the Jade Spring Palace, suddenly paid attention, "If you can buy the Five Elements Pill produced by the Jade Spring Palace, I will promise you."

"No problem, leave it to me. Wait, what is the Five Elements Pill?" Chen Guanlou still asked a question, who let him never eat pills, and didn't understand the pill market. ===== CHAPTER 1210 =====
