The number one spendthrift woman in the capital actually brings glory to her entire family?
Chapter 164 Profits Industry
Sikong Jin reached out and put her arm around Su Yue's thin shoulders, and sighed deeply.
"I'm so sorry to trouble you, my child. I really don't know what to say."
"Then don't say anything. Just remember that your son is Sikong Jin. No matter what happens, he will protect you. That's enough. Alright, it's late. I'll take you back to rest."
Su Yue nodded and obediently followed Sikong Jin towards the room.
Just after Hilton escorted Su Yue back to her room, he sent someone to bring her bird's nest porridge. This had been going on continuously for some time, which is why Su Yue's body recovered so quickly.
This time, it was Lin Fei herself who came.
"Son!"
In Sikong Jin's study, Lin Fei respectfully bowed to the black-robed youth standing by the window with his hands behind his back.
Sikong Jin raised her hand, "Sister Fei, there's no need for such formalities, please have a seat."
Feeling a sense of loneliness and solitude about Sikong Jin's back, Lin Fei thought for a moment, then nodded and walked over, but did not sit down.
"It's such a cold night wind, young master, you must take care of yourself, lest you catch a cold," Lin Fei said with concern.
Sikong Jin took a breath, then suddenly stretched out her hands and braced them against the cold window frame. Her tone was quite light, “The night is beautiful tonight. I want to take a few more peeks at the moonlight over the capital. Every time I see the moonlight over the capital, I always think of the moon over Malan City. I always feel that the moon over Wangzhou is more nostalgic.”
Lin Fei looked at her profile and saw that her expression was somewhat calm, unlike her usual wickedness. For some reason, this made Lin Fei feel inexplicably sad. After thinking for a moment, she said, "Does the young master miss Princess Jiu and General Ji?"
Sikong Jin suddenly turned her head and looked at Lin Fei indifferently. A strange expression appeared on her delicate face. She didn't speak for a long time, but there was a sense of melancholy between her brows that made Lin Fei feel depressed.
“I heard about the situation in Wangzhou during the day. Young Master, there’s no need to worry. Didn’t the Liao army retreat? At least it’s peaceful there now. Besides, with Prince Duan and General Ji there, nothing will happen,” Lin Fei comforted, a gentle warmth appearing on her face. “Young Master, like Commander-in-Chief Sikong, is someone who cares about the world. Although I, Lin Fei, am a woman, I also had ambitions to fight on the battlefield in my younger days, but I never expected to be born a woman… Fortunately, I was born with an interest in business, and I’m even more fortunate to have met you, Young Master.”
At this point, a hint of suppressed gratitude suddenly appeared on Lin Fei's face, and she sighed—
Young Master is burdened with heavy responsibilities, and I'm afraid he doesn't even have anyone to talk to. Especially in the past six months, I can always vaguely sense that Young Master is exhausted. Apart from Lord Tang, Young Master Mo, and the Ninth Princess, they are not by his side. How can Young Master not be lonely?
"Is the young master very busy lately? It's been more than half a month since I last saw him at the Hilton."
Lin Fei sighed inwardly and asked.
“I am quite busy.” Sikong Jin’s slender fingertips suddenly tapped lightly on the window frame. The pale moonlight shone through the window onto her face, making her look somewhat desolate. “Now that Hilton Royal Entertainment City is on the right track, I shouldn’t show up too often. The capital is not like other places. If people see me, it won’t be good. You know some of the rules for us as officials of the court.”
Lin Fei nodded, indicating her understanding. She vaguely felt that with the young master around, they would have more confidence in their actions. The entertainment center was doing very well, enjoying great success and soaring momentum. It was precisely at this time that they needed to be more cautious, as great success attracts attention.
"Young Master, everything at the racetrack is progressing smoothly according to plan, and the profits are even better than we anticipated. In just the first half of this month, we've already made a net profit of over 100,000 taels of silver. And this is just the revenue from the racetrack in the capital; the revenue from the racetrack in Luoyang is probably no less. It's an incredibly lucrative industry!"
It's definitely a highly profitable industry; it's a form of gambling!
Sikong Jin thought to herself.
Speaking of the racetrack, Lin Fei's admiration for Sikong Jin was practically boundless. At first, when Sikong Jin proposed the idea, she was somewhat skeptical, but to her surprise, the racetrack had almost recouped its costs in just over two months after it went into operation. Thanks to the promotional methods provided by the young master, horse racing had become the number one pastime in the capital, and its reach was astonishing.
Many industries have sprung up around horse racing and are thriving, such as the catering industry near the racetrack and the Hilton Daily, which provides accurate information on the horses competing in the races, all of which have brought Hilton enormous wealth.
And this is just one of the services offered by Hilton Royal Casino. What's even more amazing are the various all-inclusive services and different ways to relax, such as popular games like mahjong, various card games, boxing matches, and so on.
Sikong Jin had a long-term vision. She invested heavily in developing the Hilton in the capital city of Dayong and Luoyang, and now she has gradually realized her vision.
Now that business in both the Dayong Imperial City and Luoyang City is steadily on track, she can finally breathe a sigh of relief. Further development holds immense potential. The next step is to allow it to mature gradually, proceeding step by step and developing steadily.
"Yes, Hilton's current success is largely due to your contributions. By the way, how are your preparations going with the idea I mentioned last time about trying to run a Hilton flower shop?"
Sikong Jin had the idea of running a Hilton flower shop a long time ago. This idea was born from a sudden impulse when she sent a bouquet of violet clover to Di Beizun when he left. Later, due to being busy, the idea was temporarily shelved.
These novelties should attract trend-conscious young people. The people of Fengyun Continent are not like the ancient people she learned about from books in her previous world. The people here are quite open-minded and trend-conscious. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many women in power in the court and the Central Plains Society.
"The stewards have drafted a contingency plan, which is currently being revised. It may be delivered to you for your review in a few days. Young master, last month's account books have been compiled..."
"Okay, you can handle it."
Before Lin Fei could finish speaking, Sikong Jin waved her hand. She only needed to delegate authority to these managers now, as she always trusted those she employed and did not employ those she did not trust.
