The nurse came over and said respectfully: "Back to the boss, according to my knowledge, there should be only one person who is the most powerful groom within a hundred miles, and his name is Zhu Cheng."

"Oh? How are you sure he is the most powerful?" Gu Xiaoyou was doubtful about what the nurse said.

"To be honest, Zhu Cheng and I came from the same place. He has been close to horses since he was a child. His skills in horse training, riding, and driving are all top-notch." The nurse said sincerely, looking at Gu Xiao calmly.

Yu.

Seeing that what the nurse said was reasonable, Gu Xiaoyou finally believed what he said.

"Okay, I believe you, but do you know where I can find him?"

"Zhu Cheng should be near the county gate, where he waits for work every day."

"Okay, I'll go find him right now." Gu Xiaoyou immediately set off and walked towards the county gate.

There was a tea shed outside the county gate. As soon as Gu Xiaoyou entered, he shouted: "Which of you is Zhu Cheng?"

The people in the tea shed looked at each other, and the owner of the tea shed pointed at a tall man with a strong build and a rosy complexion.

Gu Xiaoyou immediately stepped forward and asked politely: "Hello, are you Zhu Cheng?"

The tall man took a sip of tea slowly: "I am, what do you want from me?"

"I heard that you are the most powerful groom in Qingcheng County, and I want to hire you for work."

Zhu Cheng put down his tea bowl and said seriously: "I dare not say that I am the best, but I am the fastest and most stable driver. Tell me, what do you want to hire me for?"

While he was talking, Gu Xiaoyou carefully observed his hands and noticed that there were thick calluses on his finger joints, palms and tiger's mouth, so he knew that he must be very experienced in driving.

"It's like this. I want to hire you to deliver a batch of paper to the capital. My requirements are very simple. It must be fast and the goods can be delivered safely. Can you do it?" Gu Xiaoyou went straight to the topic,

Quickly explain why you are here.

"No problem, as long as I have a good horse and a good carriage, I can definitely deliver it, a day or two faster than an ordinary carriage." Zhu Cheng said confidently.

"Okay, then I will match you with the best horse and the best car." Gu Xiaoyou said boldly, and took Zhu Cheng to the market to choose a horse and buy a car.

The two of them spent an entire afternoon selecting two horses and a cart with cargo.

Although Gu Xiaoyou doesn't know much about horses, he can tell from the looks of the two horses that they are two very good horses.

She was somewhat satisfied with Zhu Chengyou, and she made an appointment with Zhu Cheng to meet at Youlian Paper Shop in four days.

Zhu Cheng took the horse and truck back to cultivate their relationship, while Gu Xiaoyou returned to the workshop and worked overtime with the workers.

Time flew by in a hurry, and four days passed in the blink of an eye.

As agreed, Zhu Cheng drove a carriage to Youlian Paper Shop.

As soon as Gu Xiaoyou opened the store door, he saw Zhu Cheng and said in a good mood: "You are here, you are on time."

"Well, I am the most honest person."

Gu Xiaoyou nodded with a smile, looked at the truck a few times, and found that the truck was well preserved by Zhu Cheng, and felt even more satisfied.

"Then let's load the car."

Gu Xiaoyou brought Zhu Cheng in, introduced Zhu Cheng to Mr. Zhou, and together they loaded the toilet paper into the truck.

Mrs. Zhou carefully spread a layer of raincoat on the toilet paper, and Gu Xiaoyou said funny: "Sister Zhou, what are you doing?"

"I think if it rains, the raincoat will be able to block the rain to some extent." Zhou explained while laying out the clothes.

"Oh, no need. The roof of the truck is coated with tung oil, so you won't be afraid of any amount of water."

"It's better to be cautious." Mrs. Zhou put all the toilet paper on the raincoat before getting out of the truck.

Gu Xiaoyou shook his head helplessly. It seemed that the stimulation of being flooded before was too great.

Zhou and Gu Xiaoyou checked the quantity again. Gu Xiaoyou took out a money bag and handed it to Zhu Cheng together with the customer's address.

"Here's the address, and your food expenses on the road."

Zhu Cheng took the money bag and weighed it. He opened it and saw that there were at least five hundred coins. He immediately put it in Xiaoyou's hand.

"There are too many. I can't take them. Just prepare some dry food for me."

"Just take it, it will be easy to solve whatever happens on the way." Gu Xiaoyou said without any doubt, and put the money bag back into Zhu Cheng's hand.

Zhu Cheng held the money bag and said firmly: "Other employers only pay for carriage and horse fees. You not only got me good horses and carriages, but also paid for my food. Don't worry, I will work hard."

"If you do things for me, you'll be treated very well. If you finish the work, you'll get a reward when you come back."

"Okay, I'll set off right now." Zhu Cheng showed a hearty smile.

He put the money bag away, carefully wrote down the address, planned the route in his mind, and lightly raised his whip: "Drive!"

The two horses gently raised their front hooves, rubbed them on the ground, and started running happily...

Zhou and Gu Xiaoyou stood at the door and watched the carriage drive away.

"I don't know when I will be back." Ms. Zhou murmured softly. This was the first time that the paper shop had delivered goods so far away, and she felt a little uneasy.

Gu Xiaoyou estimated the time: "Generally, it takes half a month for a carriage to go back and forth to the capital. Zhu Cheng said that he is one or two days faster than others, so that is about thirteen days..."

"Thirteen days goes by very quickly."

"Yeah, don't think about it, let's go back, and I'll teach you how to smile."

"Yeah, yeah, Xiaoyou, I practiced all night yesterday and saw if eight teeth were exposed..."

"Let me see……"

Zhou and Gu Xiaoyou came in chatting and laughing, putting aside the matter of delivering toilet paper for the time being...

Ten days passed in the blink of an eye. As soon as Gu Xiaoyou and Mr. Zhou walked to the door of the paper shop, the sound of horse hooves could be heard in the distance.

After a while, a truck pulled by two horses ran over, and with a loud "oo" sound, it stopped steadily at the door of the paper shop.

Gu Xiaoyou took a closer look and saw that the driver was actually Zhu Cheng.

"Why did you come back so soon? I thought it would take three days." Gu Xiaoyou said in surprise.

"I just took a shortcut to transport paper, so it was a few days faster."

Zhu Cheng said lightly, jumped up, and got off the carriage easily.

"This is the final payment, as well as food expenses. I haven't used them all, so you can order some."

Zhu Cheng took out the money bag from his pocket and handed it to Gu Xiaoyou.

Gu Xiaoyou opened the purse and took a look. Five taels of silver lay in it, as well as copper coins that had not changed much.

She took out the silver and handed it to Zhou, then tied the purse and threw it back into Zhu Cheng's hand.

"There's no reason to get back the food money I gave you." Gu Xiaoyou smiled generously: "Let's go, I'll take you to have a big meal and pay you the wages by the way."

"How can this be done? You can eat and take it at the same time."

"I'm in a good mood. You completed the task ahead of schedule. You're welcome. Let's go."

Gu Xiaoyou pulled Zhu Cheng's sleeve without refusing. Zhu Cheng couldn't refuse anymore and pulled back his sleeve: "Then I'll park the carriage in the backyard and follow you."

"Okay, then I'll wait for you at the door."
