Chapter 20: Heading to Jiang Dongqu
Jiang Xiyu was not assigned to a house within the central district.
It was twenty li away from the City Lord Mansion, which served as the city center.
The area was not small, capable of housing fifty to sixty people without issue.
Gu Jinlai, after all, had once been a Refining God Elder, so it wouldn't do for the Jiang Family to send him to an inferior dwelling.
When Shao Hong brought him to the residence, it had already been cleaned up and some daily necessities added, but with the staff gone, it felt cold and desolate.
However, Gu Jinlai had already sent a message to the Gu family in Red Wind City before leaving Changjun City, ordering Gu Xiangyang to bring people to Starlight City to serve him.
Upon entering the city, he had Shao Hong send a message, and less than two hours after reaching the courtyard, Gu Xiangyang arrived with more than twenty people to take up residence.
These were all members of the Gu family, or those who had served the family for generations, whose loyalty was beyond question.
...
While Gu Xiangyang and his men checked the residence for any anomalies, Gu Jinlai was already in the study, safekeeping his treasures one by one.
He also opened the bag given to him by Shao Hong.
