The assistant thought about it. His Highness had so many businesses in the dark, but a few big shopkeepers were in charge of them.
Those big shopkeepers have done nothing wrong in these years. They have made a lot of money for His Highness. His Highness has the utmost trust in them.
Shopkeeper Li told him, "Go and check with Boss Hong first. If there are no problems, contact him secretly. No matter how much money Mo Ruhui gives him, we will pay him twice as much."
He just wants Mo Ruhui and Fei Yunhai to be suppressed by him so that Shen Mingzhu has no chance to make a comeback, only in this way can His Highness be happy.
Soon they came back after inquiring about Boss Hong.
Boss Hong's ancestors were from the Qin Dynasty. Later, due to the war, his hometown was occupied by the Jin people, and then his family was driven to the Kingdom of Jin.
Because he was dissatisfied with the Jin people forcing them to be nomadic, he kept running around as a businessman, selling the Jin people's furs, medicines, and ginseng to the Qin State, and then selling the Qin people's tea, silk, etc. to the Jin State. Because he knew
There are many Jin Kingdom nobles, so business is going smoothly.
Shopkeeper Li felt that there was nothing suspicious about Boss Hong, so he just wanted to confirm whether he met Shen Mingzhu when he was in the Kingdom of Jin and whether he had colluded with Shen Mingzhu.
He also used his various forces to inquire about the information. He was also a businessman and naturally knew many businessmen. Through them, he was able to find out that Boss Hong was not in the Kingdom of Jin last year and went to Xichen to sell pearls.
When he came back this time, he also heard that the Jin Kingdom had started to open farms and no longer forced the people to graze all day long, so he wanted to go home to buy land and build a farm for future generations.
He regretted that he did not come back in time and did not have the opportunity to meet the princess. He also found out through his good friends that Mo Ruhui was the shopkeeper of the princess, so he wanted to get close to him and then make friends with the princess through him.
The reason why he started a ginseng business with Mo Ruhui was purely out of need.
This also shows that he did not know Shen Mingzhu and Mo Ruhui before.
Shopkeeper Li made up his mind and asked someone to contact Boss Hong secretly and invite him to have tea.
In summer, the crackling thunder and earthquakes make people's eardrums hurt, and the lightning is white and dazzling. Soon, the wind and rain come, and it pours down.
The heavy rain was pouring down, and rapid rain curtains formed under the eaves.
Shen Mingzhu stood under the eaves and looked at the heaven and earth that were mixed into chaos by the heavy rain. Her sight was blocked, and the scenery two feet away was almost invisible and hazy.
Her face was calm and her eyes were clear. She stood for a moment and then said: "Sui Liniang is dead? How did she die? Please tell me carefully."
Standing respectfully next to her was a middle-aged man who looked like a steward. The man was wearing an elegant cocoon silk gown and a square scarf, looking like a country squire.
The man listened to Shen Mingzhu's question and immediately replied: "Back to Miss Sui Liniang, Sui Liniang took Yelu Fei all the way south from the Kingdom of Jin to our Daizhou Farm. Manager Hou sent people to escort him on the way, and he also changed several routes. It's not a bad journey all the way.
It was safe and no attacks were encountered. After arriving at our farm, Master Tao arranged a place for mother and son to live in a three-entry courtyard next to Taoyuan. He also gave them six girls, eight mothers-in-law, and four boys.
We provide them with food, rice, oil and salt, all provided by our farm, and they themselves say they live very comfortably.
