After returning to the capital to farm, the abandoned concubine made a comeback.

After Zhu Ling hung up the phone, the atmosphere in the room instantly became heavy.

Lin Qin's heartbeat gradually calmed down, and an ominous premonition welled up in her heart.

The next morning, the dock was bustling with noise, and the smell of fish mixed with the salty, damp sea breeze hit the air.

Zhu Ling's face was gloomy, his eyes were piercing as he surveyed his surroundings.

Standing beside him, Lin Qin felt the chill emanating from him and felt even more uneasy.

In the following days, Lin Qin's business suffered an unprecedented blow.

First, suppliers suddenly stopped supplying goods, giving all sorts of bizarre reasons, such as "family emergency," "goods being hijacked," or "suddenly becoming rich and wanting to quit"...

In short, they will no longer supply goods to Lin Qin.

Immediately afterwards, her shop was subjected to inexplicable harassment. Some people were deliberately causing trouble, while others were spreading rumors that there was something wrong with her products.

Customer traffic has plummeted, and once bustling shops are now deserted.

Lin Qin ran around trying to turn the tide, only to find herself surrounded by enemies.

She went to the suppliers, but they avoided her like the plague; she tried to explain the rumors, but the more she explained, the worse it got.

She was like a trapped beast, struggling in vain in her cage.

Late at night, Lin Qin sat alone in her room, tears silently streaming down her face.

She felt like a bird with broken wings, unable to fly anymore.

A wave of despair washed over her, engulfing her.

"Could it be... that I really have to give up?" Lin Qin murmured to herself, her eyes dim and lifeless.

At that moment, the door was gently pushed open, and Zhu Ling walked in.

He walked to Lin Qin's side and gently embraced her.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Zhu Ling's voice was deep and firm, like a reassuring pill, gradually calming Lin Qin's panicked heart.

Lin Qin looked up at Zhu Ling, her voice choked with sobs, and said, "I...I don't know what to do..."

Zhu Ling gently wiped away the tears on her face.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of everything."

“But…” Lin Qin wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Zhu Ling.

"Believe me."

Looking into Zhu Ling's determined eyes, Lin Qin felt a glimmer of hope.

"it is good."

Zhu Ling held Lin Qin tightly, gazing at the dark night sky outside the window, a barely perceptible cold smile playing on his lips.

"The game has just begun..."

Lin Qin suddenly raised her head, her eyes flashing with a sharp light, like a lightning bolt streaking across the dark night!

She slammed her hand on the table. "Oh my god, how could I have forgotten about that!" She paced back and forth in the room excitedly, like a rabbit on steroids.

“That’s right! I can bypass them and find another way!” She excitedly told Zhu Ling, speaking rapidly as if she wanted to pour out all the ideas in her head. “Our reputation speaks for itself, what’s there to be afraid of! I’ll go and contact the small merchants we’ve worked with before, set up a joint venture, and sell our goods directly in the suburban markets! They can blockade the docks, but can they blockade the entire Great Zhou Dynasty?”

Lin Qin rallied, like a blade of grass standing tall in the wind and rain, full of resilience and vitality.

She quickly devised a new plan, contacted the small vendors she had previously worked with, and began preparing for the sale at the suburban market.

Looking at Lin Qin's renewed radiance, the maid Xiao Cui exclaimed with admiration, "Miss is truly amazing! She always manages to come up with a solution!" Even the usually stern butler couldn't help but nod in praise, "The Princess is indeed resourceful and wise; this old servant is in awe!"

Seeing Lin Qin's fighting spirit rekindled, Zhu Ling said, "Qin'er, you are truly my lucky star." Without hesitation, he handed Lin Qin the key to his private vault, "Take whatever silver you need." Not only that, he also used his connections to help Lin Qin contact some reliable logistics channels to ensure that the goods could be delivered smoothly to the suburban market.

Lin Qin looked at Zhu Ling with gratitude, her eyes glistening with tears.

"Thank you, Ling." The two smiled at each other, everything understood without words.

They fought side by side, with perfect teamwork, like two perfect puzzle pieces that fit together seamlessly.

As night fell, Lin Qin and Zhu Ling stood at the entrance of the suburban market, looking at the bustling crowd, their hearts filled with anticipation.

"Tomorrow, this will be our new battlefield." Zhu Ling gripped Lin Qin's hand tightly, her tone resolute.

Lin Qin smiled slightly, her eyes sparkling with confidence.

"Yes, we will definitely win."

Suddenly, the sound of rapid hoofbeats came from afar, growing louder as it approached...

As night falls, the suburban market becomes bustling and brightly lit.

Lin Qin and Zhu Ling stood at the entrance of the market, looking at the bustling crowd, their hearts filled with anticipation.

Just then, the sound of rapid hoofbeats came from afar, growing clearer as it approached.

A group of men in black suddenly rushed into the market, causing chaos.

The vendors panicked, and the customers scattered and fled, plunging the entire market into chaos.

Lin Qin and Zhu Ling immediately became alert and held each other's hands tightly.

Zhu Ling's eyes were cold and resolute, and a cold smile appeared on his lips.

Lin Qin clenched her fists tightly, her eyes flashing with an indomitable light.

She knew that these business groups were unwilling to accept defeat and had sent people to cause trouble.

The men in black overturned stalls and smashed goods, arrogantly provoking, "Give up, Lin Qin, this isn't a place for you!" Their voices were arrogant and harsh, like sharp metal scraping against glass, making one's eardrums ache.

Lin Qin took a deep breath, slowly walked forward, and said in a calm but firm voice: "You despicable people, aren't you afraid of losing face? This is called harming others without benefiting yourself; it only makes you more disgusting."

Zhu Ling stood beside her, calmly observing the situation. He gently took Lin Qin's hand and whispered, "Don't worry, I'm here."

Just then, a leader of the men in black smiled coldly and reached out to grab Lin Qin.

Zhu Ling immediately stepped in front of her and threw a punch, knocking the man's arm back.

The man in black staggered backward as he was struck, letting out a painful cry.

Lin Qin did not back down at all. She quickly organized the vendors around her, instructing them to stabilize their situation and continue their business.

She shouted, "Don't be afraid, everyone! If we unite, we will definitely overcome this difficulty!"

Upon hearing Lin Qin's voice, the vendors gradually regained their composure and picked up their self-defense tools, preparing to fight off the troublemakers.

Although the atmosphere in the market was tense, people's hearts were filled with hope and courage.

While protecting Lin Qin, Zhu Ling directed his men to subdue the men in black one by one.

He sneered, "You parasites, you think you can steal our business? Dream on!"

As the men in black were gradually subdued, the situation was finally brought under control.

Lin Qin's gaze swept over the chaotic scene, and a new plan quickly formed in her mind.

Suddenly, an idea struck her, and she said to Zhu Ling, "Ling, most of these people are forced into this situation. We can give them a way out and make them our partners!"

Zhu Ling paused for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

Lin Qin immediately stepped forward and said to the subdued men in black, "You chose the wrong side, but you still have a chance to change. Would you like to join us and get rich together?"

The men in black looked at each other, and finally nodded.

Lin Qin smiled and said to them, "Very good, from now on you are our friends."

The head of the business group was stunned when he heard the news.

To their utter surprise, Lin Qin not only survived their attack but also cleverly turned these troublemakers into her allies.

Regret and anger mingled in their eyes, but it was too late.

Lin Qin and Zhu Ling stood side by side at the entrance of the market, looking at the scene of renewed prosperity, their hearts filled with pride and satisfaction.

Lin Qin's reputation spread rapidly in the business world, with people praising her wisdom and courage.

Just then, Doctor Zhao rushed over, panting, and said, "Lin Qin, I have good news! A major pharmacy in the capital is willing to cooperate with you and provide a large quantity of medicinal herbs!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Qin said,

Zhu Ling held her hand tightly and chuckled, "Qin'er, you're amazing."

Lin Qin smiled slightly, looked up at the night sky, her eyes firm and full of hope: "We will do better."

The sound of horses' hooves rang out again in the distance, seemingly foreshadowing a new challenge to come.

Lin Qin and Zhu Ling exchanged a smile, their hearts filled with determination to embrace the future.

Amidst the deafening sound of gongs and drums, the crackling of firecrackers, and the fluttering of red ribbons, Linqin's first chain store officially opened today!

The scene was even more lively than during the Chinese New Year!

The storefront was packed with people, a sea of ​​faces stretching as far as the eye could see.

Lin Qin pulled out all the stops for this day, using various marketing tactics such as membership systems, points redemption, and grand opening promotions to ignite the enthusiasm of the people of Beijing!

Inside the shop, the shelves were filled with a dazzling array of goods, from exquisite cosmetics to practical gadgets, everything was available, making it hard to choose.

The customers were like visitors to a grand garden, touching this and looking at that, constantly making sounds of praise.

"This perfume smells amazing! I have to buy ten boxes!" "This little mirror is so cute! My daughter will definitely love it!" "This outfit is so slimming! I have to get one for the old lady in my family!"

Lin Qin stood in the center of the shop, wearing an elegant ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress), her face beaming with a confident smile.

While directing her staff to work busily, she also made sure to greet the customers warmly.

The feeling was like that of a queen in complete control, radiating dazzling light.

"The Princess Consort is truly amazing!" "Yes, how can she be so smart?" "I feel like she's a reincarnation of the God of Wealth!" The customers discussed among themselves, their admiration for Lin Qin evident in their words.

"Congratulations, Your Highness, on your grand opening!" "Wishing Your Highness a prosperous business and abundant wealth!" Outside the shop, people came in an endless stream to offer their congratulations. High-ranking officials, business tycoons, and even ordinary people all sent their blessings.

In no time, the shop entrance was filled with all kinds of congratulatory gifts, turning it into a dazzling spectacle.

Even Zhu Ling, who is usually stern and unsmiling, had a slight smile on his lips. He looked at Lin Qin, who stood in the crowd, radiant with beauty, and his love for her surged like a flood.

As night fell and the bustle of the shops gradually subsided, Lin Qin finally breathed a sigh of relief, feeling as if her legs no longer belonged to her.

Zhu Ling tenderly embraced her and whispered, "Qin'er, you were amazing today!"

Lin Qin nestled in Zhu Ling's arms, feeling the warmth emanating from him, and a happy smile appeared on her face.

"This is all thanks to you! Without your support, I couldn't have done so well!"

The two looked at each other and smiled, saying nothing.

They embraced tightly, feeling each other's heartbeats, as if the whole world had shrunk down to just the two of them.

Lin Qin's success was like a bombshell, causing a huge uproar in Beijing's business circles.

Her fame spread like wildfire, attracting countless people who wanted to work with her, imitate her model, or even poach her team.
