Su Yue smiled and said: "With women like you, if men like us don't work hard, we will really be ashamed."
Su Mo smiled and said, "Second brother, stop being so sour. You are now a very important figure in the Department of Trade and Economics. His Highness the Fifth Prince even wrote a letter saying that thanks to you, otherwise the textile workshop in Dazhou would not be able to run well. Moreover, with you
Sitting in the Municipal Trade Department, our transactions with the tea horses and other people in the north can be so fair and we will not be deceived by those barbarians."
For a moment, Su Yue felt embarrassed and scratched his head, "When Mo'er said this, it seems like I was rushing to find you to praise me. I have to go to the Yamen. Recently, my eldest brother always comes to trouble the prince."
Looking for a way to make money, they control the border area of Northland, but they also want to take advantage of the situation to control the tea and horse market. I can't let them succeed."
Su Mo and Huangfu Jin had discussed this matter with Su Yue a long time ago. The tea and horse trading market must not be controlled by the prince.
Nowadays, the Phantom Knight leads a caravan of two hundred people to trade westward in the Hexi Corridor. It has become a common practice and has become a caravan that cannot be underestimated on the westbound trade route.
It's enough to compete with the Shen family's caravan.
Because of the Phantom's protection, no matter whether it was real bandits, other caravans, or Hu merchants who attacked them in the name of bandits, they would not get any benefit. Instead, they would lose their troops and expand the reputation of their caravan.
They owned a lot of territory in the oasis in the desert, protected the business people there, and won their love, becoming a veritable leader there.
With their presence, the prince's people have no chance of interfering with the forces there, so Su Mo is not worried.
The urgent thing she needs to do now is to cure Qin Yuanjun.
In early March, the peach trees were red and the willows were green, and the sycamore flowers were sweet. Xiao Yulou invited Su Mo and Huangfu Jin to the teahouse for tea.
Su Mo gave him an exquisite courtyard to live in, and the people who served him only took care of peripheral affairs, while they took care of everything inside.
Xiao Yulou was sitting under a sycamore tree, making tea himself. On the table were the exquisite snacks brought from the front. He was as calm and peaceful as a lake in the sun, with calm waves.
Su Mo and Huangfu Jin sat down, and the sunlight shone down, warm and fragrant. In this afternoon, it was like a gathering of old friends, without any sign of bloodshed.
