She got pregnant after the swap marriage, and the scumbag's family regretted it so much they cr

A quarter of an hour later, Wang Yimu also came out of the Qin family's house. He glanced back at the closed Qin family gate, took out a cloth from his pocket, and wiped the sweat from his face.

Goodness, it's a good thing I hesitated for a moment, otherwise he wouldn't have had such a good opportunity.

Originally, the more valuable wood in the woodworking shop was all transported from the south, and the connections were all there. Lu Huan's idea seemed tailor-made for him, leaving him no choice but to accept it.

Wang Yimu made up his mind to tell his son and daughter-in-law the good news when he got back. His son would no longer have to travel back and forth between the south and the north.

Before that, Wang Yimu looked at the familiar-looking servant in front of him and asked, "Is Brother Zou looking for me?"

"Exactly!"

Wang Yimu secretly admired Lu Huan's foresight; he already had a solution, so he wasn't flustered at all. However, he still pretended to be surprised and flattered, and followed the servant towards the teahouse not far away.

Inside the main hall of the Qin family, after Wang Yimu left, Qin Hui asked, "How did Miss know that the Gao family would move south?"

Lu Huan lowered his head and sipped his tea, concealing the disdain in his eyes.

In Lu Ruyi's view, Gao Zhongbao's success in passing the imperial examination was due to the schools in Zhili, but she was unaware of the inside story.

Gao Zhongbao was able to enter the Imperial Academy in the capital, which was second only to the Imperial College, not because of his knowledge, but because he gave his aunt a large sum of money to smooth things over.

Otherwise, why would someone like his aunt, who wouldn't act without a clear benefit, do something for him for no reason?

Part of this money came from the Zhou family, and the other part came from transactions within the space.

In this life, Lu Huan recognized the space as her master early on and deposited all the valuable items from her dowry in a money exchange. With the Prince of Yan's mansion behind her, Zhou Shi didn't dare to ask Lu Huan for them at all.

The only ones they could keep an eye on were Lu Ruyi and Li Shi.

In her previous life, Lu Ruyi spent ten years in the Li family. Although she was passed around from one family to another by Li Rong, she lived a very luxurious life in order to maintain her beauty and fair skin. Her daily necessities were even better than when she was in the Lu family. Unlike in the Gao family, where her bedroom was not even as big as her bathroom in her previous life.

If she wants to become Shangguan's wife in the future, the first thing to consider is whether she is willing to spend the money.

Lu Huan put down her teacup and said with a smile, "Someone will try to persuade the Gao couple."

She wasn't going to elaborate on the matter; whether to stay or leave had its advantages and disadvantages, and it all depended on Lu Ruyi's abilities.

"There's no rush for Wang Yimu's shop, Uncle Qin. You should prepare as soon as possible. Leave the house and shop as they are; you can rent them out later."

Leave the estates, grain, and cloth to the Prince of Yan's residence, but don't offer them to you unsolicited. I believe the Prince of Yan's residence will soon release the news, and you can make a small profit.

Avoid greed!

The young lady specifically instructed him, so it must be very important. Qin Hui nodded solemnly, indicating that he had remembered.

"Besides Wang Yimu and Tian Kai, what are your plans for dealing with the others, Miss?"

A ruthless glint flashed in Lu Huan's eyes: "Help me gather information about them. I'll find a way to deal with them, including which houses and shops they own."

Remember to cut off all contact with them, especially Ziyao's parents!

He could accept it from others, but he still felt a little sorry for Zi Yao's father, Tang Qingfeng: "The Tang family? Zi Yao has served you for so long, it shouldn't be that bad!"

"Did her father show up today?"

Bizhu stood behind Lu Huan and listened to the whole thing. When she saw her father still speaking up for Ziyao's father, she couldn't help but retort, "Father, I told you before but you didn't believe me. Her father didn't even show up today. What are you still hesitating about? Just listen to Miss's decision!"

Qin Hui recalled Bi Zhu's complaints, gritted his teeth, and his eyes welled up with tears: "Yes, this old servant will obey Miss!"

“Uncle Qin, you don’t need to call yourself an old servant in front of me. From now on, we will follow Grandpa’s wishes. I will invest money and share the profits, but I will not participate in the management. What do you think?”

"Yes! I'll do as you say, Miss! I'll have someone go and get the silver notes right away!"

Lu Huan quickly nudged Bi Zhu, signaling her to stop her father.

"Lord Qin, please hear me out. This time, I'm asking you to abandon your businesses in the north and leave your homes. Consider those profits as compensation for your losses. As for your future operations, I plan to give you another sum of money."

"That won't do!" Qin Hui refused repeatedly. "Miss, to be honest, I've never lost my connections in the south all these years. Even if I move to Zhili, it won't affect my ability to make money."

And even those people didn't know that I actually controlled most of their supply channels.

Lu Huan's eyes lit up, and her heart leaped with joy: "Uncle Qin, are you serious? If that's the case, we can strike at the root of the problem!"

"Exactly."

"Great, great, great!" Lu Huan was so excited that he stood up and paced back and forth, thinking about how to maximize profits.

She recalled the nursery rhyme her mother had made her memorize: Qin grain field, Zou skin firm, Ma Su Tang, Li family livestock, cabinet king, fruit and sundries field seedlings yellow, use medicine Zhao, medicine and stone have no cure Song burial busy.

I didn't quite understand the meaning of this folk song at first, but after Bizhu reminded me, I gradually matched the surnames of these eleven people together.

Qin Liangtian refers to Bizhu's parents, who took over the grain shop and estate; the other ten people were involved in almost all kinds of business in the West Market. They were not necessarily the best in their respective industries, but they should not be underestimated.

Among them, Zou was the leader. The Zou family mainly dealt in mulberry, hemp, and silk, and they were one of the people that the Prince of Yan was focusing on winning over.

Lu Huan's smile took on a hint of malice: "Uncle Qin, we must keep our southward relocation a secret! At the same time, cut off their supply channels and deliver the goods directly to the Prince of Yan."

Qin Hui thought for a moment and then understood what she meant: "You want to play them to death?"

"It's not that I don't want to play with them, it's that they didn't come!" Lu Huan's words were as sharp as ice.

"But..." Qin Hui rubbed his hands, somewhat hesitant. This wasn't just one or two industries; he worried that the Prince of Yan's residence wouldn't be able to handle such a large order.

"If you have any concerns, Uncle Qin, please feel free to speak up."

"If the Prince of Yan's mansion doesn't need that many goods, even if I sell all my properties, I still won't be able to pay for them!"

Lu Huan understood; she knew what the future held, but Qin Hui didn't. He was a businessman and had to calculate the potential risks.

"Fifty thousand taels of gold, is that enough?"

Qin Hui suddenly looked at Lu Huan and saw that she looked very serious, not joking at all. He immediately started calculating in his mind.

"That's enough! Adding the grain stores' stock, it's more than enough!"

The two hit it off immediately and agreed to go to Baofeng Money Shop together to collect the gold notes three days later.

When Lu Huan left the Qin family, he didn't look well, and Qin Hui didn't come out to see him off.

This made the people in the teahouse believe Wang Yimu's words even more.

"Brother Zou, it seems that Wang Yimu wasn't lying!"

Zou Chu calmly took a sip of tea and slowly said, "What if that little girl and Wang Yimu are in cahoots? Let's see what they do next."
