In ancient times, she gave birth to seven daughters and was divorced by her husband's family.

My sister-in-law is already so pitiful, but Princess Mingzhu still wants to bully her. She is really the worst person in the world!

Zhou Langya was so angry that he almost died.

Bai Lu felt a burning gaze that was staring at her intently.

She felt a little strange in her heart. Why did Zhou Langya keep looking at her? There was nothing on her face.

Could it be that he knew himself?

This is not right. He didn't say he knew me just now... Could it be that he thought I was pretty? So he kept looking at me. Is he a pervert?

I go......

Although I am confident in my appearance, I am not so confident! ?_?

Bai Lu laughed dryly twice and quickly said to General Murong and General Zhou: "Generals, Madam, I am here."

"Now I finally get to know a great hero like General Zhou! We all know that General Zhou also had great military achievements before! He helped our Dawu resist foreign enemies and defeated the barbarians! It was really hard work."

"..."

Zhou Langya also exchanged a few words with Bai Lu, and after they complimented each other on their achievements, Zhou Langya sighed and said.

"...Speaking of which, there are still many good things in the Western Regions, such as gems and pearls! If we buy these things from the Western Regions and sell them to Dawu, we should be able to make some money."

Bai Lu nodded and said, "That's what I thought. I have asked my partners, Madam Luo and Master Shen, to help me negotiate business with the caravan in the Western Regions."

"They are estimated to have already set out from Lianhua Town in Liangzhou by now."

I have already made an agreement with Shen Congyun that if the situation is special and I need to stay in Kyoto for a period of time, I will ask Shen Congyun to write a letter to me to see how his business in the Western Regions is going.

But I guess I had already returned to Liangzhou before I received his letter.

"......I see."

Zhou Langya nodded, his eyes lit up, and he said with a gleam of brilliance: "Mrs. Bai is indeed Mrs. Bai, she really has a business mind!"

"I didn't expect that you have already sent someone out."

Many of their caravans in Kyoto have not set out yet. Since Qingzhou is closer to the Western Regions, they have already set out early. Otherwise, there are the Liangzhou caravans.

Both Liangzhou and Qingzhou are very suitable for doing business with the Western Regions. If things go well, maybe the richest man in Liangzhou will be able to overshadow the richest man in Kyoto.

In the past, even if there were ten richest people in Liangzhou, they were not as good as one in Kyoto. But now...if a trade route to the Western Regions was opened up, the situation would be completely different.

Hearing this, Bai Lu also smiled and nodded.

"It still depends on one's luck. Anyway, I think that since we haven't been to the Western Regions, and no one else has been there either, we can sell more things from there."

"I heard before that there is a country in the Western Regions that is rich in pearls. It is called the Pearl Country. I can go and see if the pearls there are big and round!"

"If they are big and round, we can buy some and sell them to the nobles in Dawu. They will surely like them very much."

"It makes sense!"

Zhou Langya was also very excited when he heard this. His eyes moved and he quickly said, "...After that, why don't I hand over all my assets to Bai Niangzi and let Bai Niangzi take all my assets to the Western Regions to do business and make some money for me?"

“I think this is a very lucrative profit!”

"Just take all my wealth and let's get rich together!"

"..."

Hearing his passionate voice, Bai Lu's face suddenly froze.

Beside them, General Murong and his wife looked at each other in bewilderment.

The air fell into dead silence at this moment.

"..."

Zhou Langya blinked his eyes, and only then realized that if he really gave all his fortune to Bai Lu, it would seem like he liked Bai Lu.

No wonder Bai Lu is silent at this moment.

General Murong and his wife listened to what Zhou Langya said and always felt that... Zhou Langya was inexplicably close to Bai Lu.

So, at this moment, they all looked at Zhou Langya and Bai Lu with a gossipy look on their faces.

Zhou Langya and Bai Lu looked at each other and both of them blushed.

Zhou Langya's mouth twitched in embarrassment. Oh my god, I said the wrong thing. I definitely can't covet my sister-in-law!

He said quickly: "That... White Lady, I don't mean anything else. I mean I'll give you some more silver, and you can take my silver with confidence and help me do business!"

"If I have to pay compensation...I will accept it."

"If you make money, you can give me some profit share! That's it, what do you think?!"

Of course I earned some money. After all, the pearls I bought from my own system mall were all fake. They were big and round, but they didn’t cost much.

Even if it was real, it wouldn’t be worth much… The pearls in the system mall were all mass-produced, and in modern times they were all artificial, so he must have earned it.

Bai Lu smiled and did not refuse, but said: "

General Zhou, how much do you have?

"Oh... I have about two hundred thousand taels of silver in total!"

"If I sell the few houses in Kyoto that His Majesty has bestowed upon me, or pawn them to other officials, I can probably get an extra 30 taels of silver. Would 50 taels of silver be enough?"

General Murong: “???”

General Murong and his wife looked at each other, and the surprise in their eyes was not fake.

Oh my god, when did this brat have so much money?! They are also from a military family, how come they don’t have so much money?!

The general's wife took a sip of tea and suddenly felt a little guilty.

The total property of their family, not counting the house, is about 3 taels of silver, and this is because they have opened more than a dozen shops in Kyoto over the years.

For example, General Li and his wife have never been able to manage a household or run a shop, and their combined income... does not exceed 2000 taels of silver per year.

No, why is General Zhou so rich? ?

Even if you are frugal, you can't possibly have 50 taels of silver, right? !

Does this guy have his own business behind him?

"Five hundred thousand taels? You really have a lot of wealth."

Normally speaking, for a military commander to have a fortune of 500,000 taels, that would be the savings of his ancestors for several lifetimes.
