Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

When he came to Jiangnan, Qin Ming found that the wealth here was beyond his imagination.

In comparison, Lingnan can indeed be called an uncivilized area.

However, in the past one or two years, due to its own construction, Lingnan’s transportation has developed quite well.

Next, we will carry out some business development at a very fast pace.

At least when facing Jiangnan, Qin Ming was not too weak.

However, because they are developing very fast here, there are many businesses of all sizes locally.

It is very troublesome to connect them one by one and do business with your own textile factory later.

By establishing the Textile Industry Association, Qin Ming can use the form of an organization to control this industry.

"Your idea is a bit strange. Who owns the association?"

At this time, Wan Shu asked a more important question.

Lingnan has developed very well in the textile industry.

But Jiangnan has strong strength and money.

It is definitely impossible to ask them to bow their heads and recognize Qin Ming's textile factory as the leader.

"So, I need your help."

Qin Ming had already thought of a way to catch them all in one swoop.

At this time he also smiled and spoke.

"What? Do you really want to put this association in Lingnan? No one in Jiangnan will agree to it."

At this time, Wan Shu immediately waved to Qin Ming.

She has done too much business here, and she knows very well what people's tempers are like and what they insist on.

"Don't worry, if I say take it, then I will definitely get it."

The establishment of the association is fake, the real thing is to control the textile industry in this area.

"What do you want me to do?"

Wan Shu looked at Qin Ming warily, and it was obvious that he didn't want to take action.

"I will be holding a textile conference in Gusu City soon. Please help me invite them to visit."

"Is it just that simple?"

Upon hearing this news, Wan Shu suddenly felt a little strange.

Qin Ming didn't say much.

"Besides you, Sun Miao will also go over and call a group of people."

"I see."

Wan Shu nodded slowly, then turned and left.

On the other side, in the Xiao family compound, many people gathered here.

Standing in front of them were the eldest son of the Xiao family, Xiao Lianhe, and the second son, Xiao Lianshan.

The two of them have been in a lot of trouble because of Qin Ming recently.

The salt industry collapsed completely, and many salt merchants were still pretending to be friendly with them.

In fact, it has already replaced Qin Ming's refined salt to make money.

And they also gradually reduced their transactions with the Xiao family.

The Xiao family had a huge amount of coarse salt in their hands and could only throw it away.

The key point is that Xiao Pingzhang had promised before that he could take control of the entire Jiangnan textile industry.

At that time, the talents of the Xiao family agreed to let him go to Lingnan to work.

But later he went straight home and pretended to be sick and dead.

This left everyone with no solution. The textile industry was one-sided, and the salt industry was even more one-sided.

The Xiao family had no money and no support, and was about to lose control of the entire Jiangnan business.

"Lianshan, something is wrong now. What should we do?"

Third sister-in-law Chu Xiuyun frowned and spoke, her face full of worry.

After hearing what the other party said, Xiao Lianshan frowned and looked at his brother.

"The family can no longer control the situation. As a matter of fact, I think we should try to find Prince Duan."

"Prince Duan?!"

When they heard these two words, everyone present fell silent.

Xiao Lianhe pondered for a while, took a deep breath and said:

"We can't ask Prince Duan to come to us, so let the person in the palace write a letter personally."

The person in the palace they were talking about was naturally Concubine Xiao Shufei.

"That's possible..."

Xiao Lianhe's words made everyone nod.

Prince Duan is the third son of the current emperor and has no intention of competing for the throne.

He was crowned king and given a fiefdom at an early age.

The place where he was enfeoffed was Jiangnan.

However, although he has no ambition, he is very strong.

Not only does he have an army in his hands, but after years of operation, he also controls many local forces.

The reason why he is not famous is that he does not often get involved in external disputes and always keeps himself safe.

Xiao family's third sister-in-law Chu Xiuyun frowned and said:

"If Prince Duan were to take action, he would definitely be able to curb the King of Qin's tactics, but they have no grudges against each other... I'm afraid he won't take the risk."

If Prince Duan is the unknown one among these princes, then Qin Ming is the most famous one.

Let someone who prefers to play things safe and doesn't have too much ambition take action against Qin Ming.

This may be difficult.

However, the person who took the initiative to contact Prince Duan this time was Concubine Xiao Shufei!

This is the Xiao family's trump card and protective umbrella.

They were not originally truly qualified to be the leader of the entire Jiangnan family.

The reason why he was able to get to where he is today is because when he encountered many life-threatening threats, he could find Concubine Xiao Shufei to solve them.

"Don't worry, as long as my little sister takes action, Prince Duan will definitely agree."

Xiao Lianshan spoke slowly. He had infinite trust in Concubine Xiao Shufei.

Soon, the messenger from the Xiao family rushed towards the capital.

In Gusu City, the textile conference organized by Qin Ming was also prepared.

This time, Qin Ming arranged for many craftsmen from workshops to come and brought some new technologies to many people in Gusu City.

These techniques have made people in cloth shops everywhere notice some differences.

As for Sun Miao and Wan Shu, they spent a lot of money to entertain everyone during this period.

Let’s not talk about whether it works well or not.

The event has been quite grand in just these few days.

This also moved many cloth shop owners who came here.

"Your Highness, it's almost time."

After several days of arrangements, Sun Miao found Qin Ming that day.

“How many people haven’t come yet?”

Qin Ming walked out of the room and asked in a calm tone.

"In five days, only half of them came. Most of the other cloth shop owners declined with excuses, and some even refused outright."

When Sun Miao said these words, his expression actually looked a little ugly.

Over the past few months, they have spent tremendous effort before finally defeating the Xiao family.

But things are not as simple as they imagined.

These local merchants didn't even give Qin Ming, the winner, enough respect.

"Shout out tonight and I'll treat them to a meal."

After Qin Ming thought about it, he slowly began to make arrangements.

"Your Highness, if you come in person for this kind of thing, I always feel that it would be a bit of a derogation."

Sun Miao always felt that Qin Ming should not be personally involved in these matters.

It just so happened that the Sun family would develop here in the future, so he took the initiative to take charge of this matter.

But the reality was that neither he nor Wan Shu succeeded in convincing this group of people.

Even half of the cloth shop owners who came here were not successfully captured.

Not to mention any textile association.

"Give them another chance. If that doesn't work, I still have a backup plan."

Qin Ming spoke lightly.

When Sun Miao heard this, his heart sank immediately.

He seemed to have thought of something and advised Qin Ming:

"Your Highness, we still need to be mindful of our reputation."

"Don't worry, I'll pay attention."

Qin Ming waved his hand and told him not to worry.

Just as the two were talking, Wan Shu came back from outside.

This time she brought some surprising news.

"There's a cloth shop owner named Chu Huaixin who said he's had enough of this place and wants to take his people away."
