Chapter 373: Go and deal with the rebellious son!
When Jiang Wanyue heard that Hou Xiaoxiao had even gone to her grandparents' house to borrow money, she became more certain of her thoughts.
But in fact, Hou Xiaoxiao's borrowing of money was just a cover. She went to the General of Cavalry to help He Lin select his personal guards.
Jiang Wanyue showed an expectant smile on her face: "I am waiting for He Lin and Hou Xiaoxiao's families to stumble in the northwest."
"They spent a lot of energy preparing for the Northwest, so there must be some negligence in the capital."
She took a sip of Jasmine Snow Buds. "If they lose everything in the northwest, they will have to keep sending money to the northwest. Maybe even the shops in the capital will not be able to operate. Then my mother and I will have more opportunities."
In the past six months, most of the business in the capital has been divided up by the He family and the Jinxiao Chamber of Commerce. The other shops can only pick up what is left. Unfortunately, neither of these two giants is easy to deal with, and they have no strength to challenge them.
Now, the two men got into a heated argument over the issues of the Northwest, and the merchants in Beijing were very happy. They were all waiting to see the two men suffer losses, and they would be the ones who benefited from the quarrel between the two.
"Wanyue, you are far-sighted! Not only are you proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but you are also well versed in business. Unlike me, who only knows how to quibble over words."
Miss Cheng looked with envy at Jiang Wanyue's silk, satin, and pearl jewelry, as well as the fruits on the table that she seldom got to eat on a normal day.
Jiang Wanyue touched the agate coral bracelet on her hand. This bracelet was a treasure found for her by the Li family of Linzhou. It could nourish the body and bring blessings and ward off evil spirits.
Although the goods in the jewelry stores of the He family and Hou Xiaoxiao's family were indeed magnificent, Jiang Wanyue felt uncomfortable at the thought of having to pay money to these two people.
Fortunately, there is the Linzhou Li family. Their roots are in Linzhou, but their business has flourished. However, they never cross the border to interfere in the business of wealthy places like the capital, Yuzhou, and Ancheng. The eldest son of the Li family can find rare treasures in the world and serve distinguished guests like them.
Many officials and wealthy businessmen liked to do business with the Linzhou Li family.
The Li family also has the Yuelai Escort Agency to provide emergency delivery. Jiang Wanyue's food, clothing and other expenses are all provided by the Linzhou Li family, which is extremely luxurious.
Even the plate of lychees on the table were sent by the Li family and are extremely fresh.
Jiang Wanyue peeled a lychee and put it into her mouth, revealing a proud and enjoyable expression.
Thinking that these lychees were sent from the southernmost place, she narrowed her eyes, wondering what kind of hard work Jiang Lili, who was exiled from Haizhou, was doing at this moment?
Or is he seriously ill?
She had to find someone to find out whether her eldest sister was dead or alive.
Death is the best, life must be miserable.

"Oh, I'm worried——"
A medium-sized fishing boat was floating on the blue sea with two fishing rods on it. Sheng Zhixing was fishing, Master Liao was playing in the water, and Jiang Lili was sitting on a recliner eating roasted lamb legs and drinking pineapple juice, with a truly miserable expression on her face.
It’s not that someone caused trouble or an accident, but the trouble of happiness——
The breeding cycle of sheep is very short, less than three months.
The sheep of Miguo are taken care of by herders led by breeding experts from the Bol grassland. They are growing well and reproducing rapidly.
Half a year has passed since they came to Miguo at the beginning of the year. The number of sheep in each pastoral area has increased exponentially, and now the pastoral areas are overcrowded with sheep.
In order to ensure the good growth of the lambs, they had to open new sheep pens, and even three or five sheep pens were temporarily built in the royal city.
Jiang Lili could hear the bleating sound almost every day in Mi Country, so she ran to the sea to take a break.
There are too many sheep and not enough people, and there is no way to sell them, so it's really worrying.
The sheep in Miguo are carefully raised and have delicious meat, but eating mutton every day can become boring and easily cause a sore throat.
Now Jiang Lili can still use backpacks and red envelopes to transport batches of adult sheep to the modern world.
An organization is responsible for sending these specialty sheep from other worlds for quarantine, and Xiaopang finds merchants to sell these sheep.
As for Xue Wei, he had not yet reached Jingshui County. It would take another half a month. Moreover, many lands in Jingshui County were barren, so there was no way to start raising lambs immediately.
But Jiang Lili couldn't possibly stay in Mi Country forever just to be responsible for transporting the sheep.
She has to open up sales channels and find a stable delivery point, so that she can be a hands-off boss and get out of the loop, and the business of Mi Country can also develop in a virtuous circle.
Wen Qiao has brought a group of Mi people who are good at communication and have a talent for business, and they are taking a large ship to sell their high-quality sheep to the surrounding small countries where they once did business, and use the sheep to exchange for various spices and gems...
After the people of Mi Kingdom have gained experience in going to sea with Wen Qiao, they will be able to lead their own fleet to trade at sea.
However, these small countries have a low level of commercialization, a small population and limited purchasing power, so they need to open up more sales channels.
Jiang Lili looked at the vast ocean and suddenly remembered that Sheng Zhixing had floated over from the sea: "Speaking of which, Brother Sheng is still the old emperor of Nanzhao who is on the run."
Nanzhao was a small country compared to Dasheng, but much bigger than their Mi Kingdom. Moreover, Nanzhao not only had a large population, but the people also lived a comfortable life, and mutton and wool could be sold at a good price.
Master Liao poked Sheng Zhixing who was fishing and said, "I don't know what's going on in Nanzhao now. Have your unfilial children fought to a conclusion?"
Sheng Zhixing was wearing a fisherman's hat and sunglasses, sitting on a small fishing stool, with a thermos cup full of tea at his feet, looking like a happy retired old man.
Maybe because he was hard of hearing, he didn't hear Jiang Lili's question and his attention was all on his fishing rod.
Xin Che used a wet towel to wipe Jiang Lili's hands: "How about we take someone over to take a look?"
Master Liao agreed with both hands and feet: "By the way, help Lao Sheng deal with these unfilial children who sacrificed their own family for the sake of justice."
Sheng Zhixing finally reacted at this time. He turned around and looked around: "Who poked me just now?"
Master Liao: …
His eyes widened, and he really wanted to give Sheng Zhixing some of his life span: "Your reaction is so slow, could it be Alzheimer's disease?"
Sheng Zhixing took off his sunglasses angrily: "Nonsense, a fish just took the bait and I didn't have time to respond!"
Master Liao shrugged and said, "We were talking about the fact that the sheep in Nanzhao are priced well, so why not open up a sales channel in Nanzhao? After thinking about it, we decided to just conquer Nanzhao."
"Ah? Attack Nanzhao?"
Sheng Zhixing sat up straight, feeling excited. He had been lying down in Mi Country these days to enjoy his retirement life. He was very happy at first, but it became boring after lying down for too long. Wen Qiao was already busy taking people out to sea, so Sheng Zhixing couldn't sit still either.
He thought about how miserable he was when he risked his life to escape from Nanzhao, and the fire of revenge in his heart burned fiercely: "Let's go and deal with these rebellious sons!"
