The Flourishing Era of Female Merchants

Everyone watched this scene with varying expressions. Right at Liu Zhan's feet, the plaque with the two large characters "Liu Mansion" written on it was broken in the middle and scattered on the ground, looking utterly desolate.

Liu Zhan stared at the plaque on the ground, his face turning deathly pale. It was ruined, the plaque was ruined!

"Ah..." Liu Zhan screamed, suddenly kneeling on the ground, trying desperately to piece the broken plaque back together, but no matter how he fiddled with it, it was no use. "What should I do? What should I do?"

Panic flickered in Liu Zhan's eyes. Helpless, his anger grew stronger. His eyes narrowed, and he clenched his fist, slamming it hard against the door plaque.

"Young Master Liu, you should move this thing away!" An Mi's voice rang out again, her mood improving as she looked at Liu Zhan's pale face.

Upon hearing this voice, Liu Zhan clenched his fists even tighter. He raised his eyes and glared fiercely at the woman whose face was veiled in white gauze, his teeth clenched. "I'll make you regret this!"

"Oh? Is Young Master Liu threatening me? Your Excellency, listen to this: if anything happens to me in the future, Young Master Liu will definitely be held responsible." An Mi spoke, but there was no fear in her words. Liu Zhan was nothing but a stray dog ​​now, what was there to be afraid of?

Even if he wanted to do something, she wouldn't give him any chance!

"Liu Zhan, are there still many empty rooms in the Rongjin City government prison?" The prefectural governor spoke loudly, his words carrying a hidden meaning. The Liu family was now completely ruined, and he would show no mercy to Liu Zhan.

Liu Zhan's face stiffened for a moment, his gaze sweeping over An Mi and the others, before he suddenly burst into laughter, a laugh even tinged with madness. "Good... very good, you're all great!"

Is Liu Zhan now someone everyone can bully and trample on?

A slight smile played on Anmi's lips beneath her veil, as if she were deliberately trying to inflict more pain on Liu Zhan. She spoke loudly, "From this day forward, this place will be the property of Shengshi Lieyan. Anyone who works at Shengshi Lieyan, or in the silk reeling workshop or weaving workshop, can bring their entire family here. I think this mansion is enough for everyone."

Instantly, everyone present cheered, but Liu Zhan's face was filled with rage. Did this woman really want those lowly, poor people to live in his Liu family's ancestral home?

He wanted to stop it, but he had no right to do so. He could only swallow his resentment and try his best to suppress it. Meeting the bright eyes of Miss Yan, Liu Zhan gritted his teeth and strode out of the crowd.

An Mi watched his retreating figure, her eyes narrowing. She glanced at the broken door plaque on the ground, and her gaze deepened. Then, An Mi said loudly, "Take this useless thing to the woodshed and burn it."

Throughout the entire event, while watching the spectacle unfold, Bai Yi also carefully observed An Mi's expression. Recalling the various emotions he had sensed from An Mi today, Bai Yi frowned and whispered to An Mi, "You finally obtained the ancestral home of the Liu family, why don't you live there yourself?"

Both Miss Yan and An Mi need their own residence. One day, the An family mansion will become an obstacle for An Mi.

An Mi naturally understood Bai Yi's meaning, but... An Mi looked up and met Bai Yi's eyes, then turned away to look at the mansion she hated. In her past life, the scene before her death was still vivid in her mind. Asking her to move into the Liu family's ancestral home was like tearing open her own wounds. How could she do such a thing?

In this life, she is a completely new Anmi, a brand new life. Her gaze softened, and she slowly spoke, "Doesn't Your Highness think I deserve better?"

Bai Yi was slightly taken aback, and after a moment of stunned silence, a smile instantly spread across his face. Indeed, An Mi deserved better. As if thinking of something, Bai Yi's deep eyes darkened slightly, as if he had made a decision. The smile on his lips grew even brighter, and he said loudly, "That's right. These days, Miss Yan's businesses are something even I, the king, envy!"

Although the Liu family's original shop had suffered setbacks and was in a slump in the past few months, it should be in a different state now that it has been transferred to An Mi's hands. He could almost see the prospects without even thinking about it.

Bai Yi's gaze was fixed on An Mi, his deep eyes revealing no emotion whatsoever.

The news that the Liu family, once the richest family in Rongjin City, had changed hands overnight quickly spread throughout the streets and alleys of Rongjin City. No matter where you went, you could hear people talking about it.

Now, all those properties have fallen into the hands of Miss Yan of Prosperous Flames. It is said that the Liu family borrowed money from others and could not repay it, so they had no choice but to hand over all the collateral.

People lamented the decline of the Liu family and were filled with anticipation for the Miss Yan. It was said that she had offered the Liu family's ancestral home for the employees who worked for her to live in. This single act had already made many people in Rongjin City look at Miss Yan with new respect. Now, whenever Miss Yan was mentioned, everyone became very enthusiastic.

When the Liu family's businesses came into the hands of Miss Yan, she carried out extensive reforms. She kept some of the original employees, and recruited new people from all over Rongjin City. Upon hearing this news, many people were eager to try their luck.

It is said that Miss Yan treats her employees very well, never deducting their wages, and even the treatment she gives them is unmatched by any other business in Rongjin City.

It is said that in almost every shop, Miss Yan appointed two managers, one male and one female, who took turns in charge. Whoever brought more profit to the shop became the boss.

It is said that Miss Yan gave 10% of her shares to a woman named Cheng Ying who was by her side. It is said that Cheng Ying was once divorced, but she has achieved so much by following Miss Yan. Everyone is even more certain that following Miss Yan means a bright future!

It is said that since Miss Yan took over all the original Liu family's businesses, countless merchants in Rongjin City have been vying to befriend her over the past three months. However, the King of Bohai eventually declared that Miss Yan would not receive any guests.

With the King of Bohai speaking, who would dare to defy the world? Even those who wanted to please Miss Yan would have to find another way.

While this made things much quieter around An Mi, those who heard it felt the relationship between the King of Bohai and Miss Yan was even more ambiguous.

However, it was also heard that Miss Yan had spoken at the Grand Flame Palace, instructing the staff not to let any unauthorized persons into her room, including the King of Bohai. An Mi dared to do this because a month earlier, she had used the silver to buy out the entire share of the King of Bohai's Grand Flame Palace. Now, the Grand Flame Palace only had her as its master. Although Bai Yi was extremely unwilling, he had no choice but to sell the share to her according to the agreement. This was the first time that Bai Yi had reluctantly accepted silver.
