Chapter 885: Departure
Zhou Huaiyu looked at his own brother with a strange look on his face, then he turned to Gu Chaoyan next to him, who was even more confused.
“Yes?” Zhou Huaiyu asked, as he picked up the tea and had a sip of it.
Zhou Huaiyu was not someone who was into tea, so for him, the tea was just to drive away the thirst. However, he would not waste the time in drinking tea, but gulped it down directly.
Zhou Huaijin suggested that he should sit down, then he added, “I have just received a message today about the Imperial Master. He has stolen our business plan of running the restaurant whilst spreading rumors about Chaoyan. Hopefully, they would be able to solve the issue about the Feather Mulberry Land directly.”
“…”
“I planned to visit somewhere, but could not do that until we were on the way home. If you have other things to do, then we can get down to our own business. As for the Feather Mulberry Land, I will bring Chaoyan there, and as for what you need, I can bring them to you now.” Zhou Huaijin said.
When Zhou Huaiyu was discussing the whole thing, Zhou Huaiyu had the plan of charging his brother money, so he agreed to take a trip with the couple.
Zhou Huaijin agreed and there was a conversation like this.
Zhou Huaiyu smiled and said, “Alright, the Feather Mulberry Land will be it. I can go with you, but you have to pay me more than we discussed.”
Zhou Huaijin nodded. Although it was about money, Zhou Huaijin still felt grateful for his brother. He knew that his brother was devoted to him.
The reason why he agreed to give him the money was because he did not want to owe anyone any favors. In the imperial family, money was the least important thing, and he did not think that his brother truly needed this money.
Zhou Huaijin had this in his mind, but he did not want to mention the truth.
“We have to take a boat to reach the Feather Mulberry Land. It is a shorter path, with 2/3 on the water and 1/3 on the land,” Zhou Huaijin said.
Zhou Huaiyu nodded.
Water was definitely much better. However…
“But if we take the water path, we need to get a boat and food ready, which will take a couple of days,” Zhou Huaiyu said as he started to think where he could rent the boat.
“I have gotten the boat ready, so we can go anytime,” Zhou Huaijin said.
Zhou Huaiyu was very surprised, as he looked at Zhou Huaijin.
Well, he received the news about the Feather Mulberry Land and decided to travel there today…. so he got the boat ready just a while ago?
Well…
He needed contacts as well as money to get this done. How did Eighth Brother do it?
He had been in the capital all these years, and it did not seem as if he had achieved anything.
Zhou Huaiyu had been extremely curious about this. He believed that Eighth Brother was different from how he remembered.
“Alright, go and take a rest, we will get on the boat tomorrow,” Zhou Huaijin said.
“Okay.” Zhou Huaiyu answered and left.
Zhou Huaijin and Gu Chaoyan arrived at the port the next morning.
At that time, it was before dawn.
It was a big boat, which surprised Zhou Huaiyu even more, but he had no time to stay surprised, when he followed the rest of the passengers into the boat.
Gu Chaoyan had just set foot on the boat, when she had a weird expression on her face.
