The Xie family's eyes lit up as they listened.

Bai Yuzhen said excitedly, "My lord, Yuge is right."

Our family's general store has always been lukewarm, but this dried seafood business might just be the turning point.

Xie Chengzhu also stopped and looked at Lin Yuge with curiosity, sighing:

"I can't believe that after just two years, the little girl I used to know is now capable of handling things on her own."

"Uncle, my little sister is now successful; she owns several ships!"

Moreover, she designed all of these ships herself.

Not only our three merchant ships heading to Beijing, but there are also several fishing boats out to sea every day in Lingnan!

Lin Qingzhou, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but say, his words full of pride.

Upon hearing this, Xie Chengzhu finally revealed a long-lost smile.

"Good! Good! Now that your family has overcome all hardships, I can rest assured."

So, I shamelessly took advantage of my niece's kindness.

"What are you saying? You saved our family's life."

It is only right that we repay you now.

Besides, we need to find buyers for these goods anyway.

"My uncle is very experienced, and I believe these shops will soon be able to recover," Lin Yuge said sincerely.

As he spoke, Lin Yuge took out a stack of silver notes from his pocket and handed them to Xie Chengzhu.

Xie Chengzhu was about to refuse as soon as he opened his mouth.

Lin Yuge quickly interrupted:

"Uncle, please don't be in a hurry, let me finish. This was specially given to us by my mother before we left, to be returned to you."

We were able to reach Lingnan smoothly back then thanks to the money you gave us.

We've worked hard in Lingnan these past two years, and while we're not rich, we've accumulated some savings.

Now is the time to repay you; you mustn't refuse.

Xie Chengzhu's eyes reddened slightly after hearing Lin Yuge's words, and he sighed softly.

He said, "Yuge, you're such a thoughtful child."

What happened back then was merely my duty as an uncle; I never expected anything in return.

Lin Qingzhou also advised:

"Uncle, our whole family will always remember your kindness to us."

This is not just about money; it's about the helping hand you extended during our most difficult time, giving us hope to start over.

This money is just what you need to use to pay off your debts, so you won't have to hide anymore.

Xie Chengzhu nodded slightly, his expression solemn yet somewhat relieved.

“You must have suffered a lot in Lingnan over the years.”

I thought that being in the capital would provide you with a stable place to rely on, but I never expected to fall into trouble myself and cause you so much worry.

Your kindness is truly gratifying to your uncle. I'll accept the money for now, and once the shop's business improves, I'll repay you double.

"Uncle, this back and forth is too formal."

You have been incredibly kind to us, and we only hope to help you rebuild your family business and enable your whole family to live a better life.

This money was originally accumulated from your initial assistance.

Now, putting it into business is the best outcome for it.

Lin Yuge said sincerely.

Xie Chengzhu looked at the sensible younger man in front of him, his heart filled with emotion:

“Yuge, hearing your words warms my heart.”

Let's put that aside for now and talk about the supply issue!

The group then went on to discuss the silk shop and the general store.

After discussing it, Xie Chengzhu decided to move back to the city the next day.

Use the money Lin Yuge gave me to pay off the debt first.

With no debt, I felt much lighter, and my son's condition also took a turn for the better.

Only then did he have the energy to reorganize the remaining stores.

My nephew and niece have gone to such lengths to help me; it would be a real shame if I didn't try my best.

Bai Yuzhen also planned to go to her parents' home first to bring her two children back, as they had been suffering during this time.

Lin Yuge and Lin Qingzhou were relieved to see their family regain their confidence, finally feeling that they had lived up to their mother's expectations.

The brother and sister returned to the city and decided to take a trip to the docks.

"Brother, are the crew members all settled in?" Lin Yuge asked as he approached the ship.

Lin Qingzhou nodded and replied, "Yes, the warehouse that Ziheng contacted happens to have a yard."

It was convenient for the crew to stay there, although the environment wasn't as good as an inn.

But its advantage lay in its spaciousness and proximity to the ship, making it convenient for them to rest and guard the cargo.

"That's good. I'll probably be busy these next few days."

Not only do we need to ship the goods, but we also need to see what products from the capital can be brought back to Lingnan.

As Lin Yuge spoke, she thoughtfully watched the boats coming and going and the busy crowds at the dock.

"I'm not good at this. When I see Ziheng tomorrow, I'll discuss it with him."

He's a local bigwig. And my uncle should know that too.

Just then, a man walked over; it was the steward who had been with Xiao Yunqing yesterday.

"Mo Dong greets Miss Lin. My master has instructed me to follow you these past few days."

"Please do not hesitate to give me your orders," Mo Dong said respectfully.

Lin Yuge nodded slightly: "Thank you for your trouble, Manager Mo. We just happened to be heading to the warehouse."

The goods brought to Beijing this time are diverse, and many of them are rare and precious items.

Manager Mo went along to take a look. Where would be the most suitable place to sell these things?

Do you have any familiar large merchants or specialized trading venues you could recommend?

"Miss Lin, you may call me Mo Dong."

Mo Dong bowed slightly, speaking respectfully and solemnly.

Afterwards, the group arrived at a warehouse located near the river.

Several crew members guarded the cargo hold gate and greeted Lin Yuge and the others as they arrived.

The lead crew member said, "Young master, everything in the cargo hold is fine."

We've been on duty day and night for the past two days, and there haven't been any mishaps.

Lin Yuge smiled and nodded: "Thank you all for your hard work these next few days."

Once the goods are shipped out, I'll give you all a few days off so you can explore Beijing to your heart's content.

Upon hearing this, the crew members all showed joy and expressed their gratitude.

Lin Yuge led Mo Dong into the warehouse.

The warehouse was dimly lit, but you could still see boxes of goods neatly stacked.

The group looked around the area one by one along the corridor.

From Lingnan's ramie yarn, spices, white porcelain, medicinal herbs, and a vast array of dried seafood.

Next came the jade artifacts, lacquerware, silks, and writing implements they collected along the way.

After introducing everything, Lin Yuge continued:

“I also have some pearls and pearl jewelry, and oh yes, a red coral this big.”

She gestured with her hand as she spoke.

Mo Dong remained calm and composed on the surface, but inwardly he was amazed.

Even though he managed all of the lord's properties in the capital and had seen countless treasures.

They were somewhat stunned at this moment; it seemed that Miss Lin and her cousin were preparing to do something big.

These goods are diverse in variety and of superior quality.

If managed properly, it could not only create waves in the business world of Beijing, but also generate immeasurable profits.

No wonder the Lord sent Himself to assist them.

"Miss Lin, although the goods are all of the finest quality, the capital is different from other places, where various forces are deeply entrenched."

I need to think about this sales matter carefully.

First, explore the needs and trends of various families, merchants, and the palace, and then decide which one to cooperate with for the safest outcome.

Pearls and red coral are particularly sought after, and it is essential to find a buyer with a strong background and excellent reputation to ensure safety.

Mo Dong snapped out of his daze and spoke to Lin Yuge with a serious expression.
