Shu Yu paused and looked up at Mr. Guo. “Are you sure?”

“Of course, we won’t fool our customers.” Mr. Guo said affirmatively, his gaze fixed on the bag in her hand.

Shu Yu pursed her lips and sat down again. “Alright, we’ll get the money and the goods.”

Mr. Guo almost laughed out loud at her words. Why did it sound like an improper deal?

However, thinking about it, this was the black market. It did not seem like a proper place.

He nodded at Shu Yu and stood up. “Wait a moment.”

Shu Yu watched him walk out. After a while, Mister Guo returned with a box in his hand.

When the box was opened, there were dozens of silver notes inside.

Mister Guo was quite attentive. The banknotes varied in size and were all placed in a box. He pushed them in front of Shu Yu and said, “Please count them. After you leave the black market, if anything goes wrong with the banknotes, the black market will not admit it.”

Shu Yu nodded. After opening the box, she took out the entire stack of banknotes.

She counted the money very quickly. Before Mr. Guo could take two sips of tea, she had already finished counting.

Mr. Guo was a little surprised.” Are you sure?”

“It is indeed twenty-eight thousand taels, not a single cent more, not a single cent.” Shu Yu pushed her box over. “Then this mirror belongs to you.”

Mr. Guo smiled. “It’s been a pleasure working with you. I hope that the next time you have something good, you can consider our black market first. I will not treat you badly.”

“Alright, I’ll come to you again next time. I hope Mr. Guo’s authority can be greater.”

Mister Guo laughed and accepted the mirror happily.

Shu Yu also carried the bundle with the silver note box and got up to leave the house. “Then I’ll be leaving first. See you again.”

Mister Guo summoned a servant and asked him to send Shu Yu out.

Returning to the bamboo forest, Shu Yu pulled out the carriage and left.

She was still cautious. She first returned to the rented carriage and then changed her clothes before returning to Liufang Alley.

Just as they passed by the Meng family’s door, Zhao Xi happened to open the door.

The two of them looked at each other. Shu Yu waved at him. “Let’s go out.”

Zhao Xi smiled foolishly and looked around. Seeing that there was no one in the alley, he let her in.

Shu Yu had tens of thousands of taels of silver in her arms. To be honest, she wanted to go back.

But looking at Zhao Xi’s appearance, he should have something very important to look for her.

Sure enough, as soon as she entered, Zhao Xi immediately put away his silly look and said, “I was just planning to go to your house to look for you.”

In the eyes of outsiders, he was a fool. The old lady took care of him from time to time, so he was considered normal in the eyes of outsiders.

Shu Yu felt strange. She looked up and saw Meng Yunzheng walking over.

However, his expression was slightly serious. The first thing he said when he arrived was, “Something unexpected has happened. The Shu family will be exiled in half a month. You might have to return to the Dongan Province a day or two earlier.”

Shu Yu frowned. Half a month?

It had only been five or six days since their last meeting. Adding on the half a month, wasn’t the distance from a month shortened by ten days?

The time was already short, and now it was even shorter.

Shu Yu recalled the ending of the book and suddenly remembered that the Shu family was exiled in late August.

The latter half of the month was from the 21st to the end of the month.

Shu Yu subconsciously thought of it as the end of the month, so she might have been exiled on the 21st. In that case, the timing was just right.
