After being a widow for half my life, I found out that my husband was not dead.

Liu Yunxiang first settled Tuoba Fei'er. When he came back, he saw Xue Changfeng slumped on a chair, while Yan Mu poured a cup of tea and delivered it to him personally.

"Okay, thank you very much this time."

"Oh, it's really not easy to hear the word 'thank you' from your mouth." Xue Changfeng sat up straight and drank the cup of tea solemnly, "Tsk, the tea that His Highness the Seventh Prince poured is Delicious."

Liu Yunxiang smiled, "I should say that the tea from my Lingyun Tea Shop is good."

Xue Changfeng nodded, "It is indeed a good tea, Dahongpao, right?"

"Well, I'll ask the guy to deliver two packages to you tomorrow."

Xue Changfeng chuckled, "Then I won't be polite."

After asking them about their affairs in the palace, Xue Changfeng breathed a sigh of relief when he learned that the marriage issue was settled and that Liu Yunxiang had obtained the eldest princess.

"That's good, I can have a peaceful sleep." Xue Changfeng yawned, stood up and walked out, rubbing his waist as he walked, "Those two of your family are really noisy. They are riding horses and wrestling. , my old bones were almost torn apart by them."

Liu Yunxiang covered his mouth and smiled, "They are both crazy, but they really like you."

"Of course they like such a good-looking uncle."

Liu Yunxiang and Yan Mu got up to see Xue Changfeng off. When they walked to the door, Xue Changfeng suddenly remembered something and slapped his forehead.

"By the way, didn't you ask me to find out if the mountainous land in Weizhou was given to the northwest? It happened that a deputy general stationed in Weizhou returned to Beijing to visit relatives. We used to drink together at that time. He came to my house to find me, and I asked About his piece of land." Speaking of this, Xue Changfeng's face showed a mysterious look, "Guess what?"

Liu Yunxiang and Yan Mu looked at each other, and then she said: "That land has been given to Northwest."

Yan Mu exclaimed, "How do you know?"

"If you don't agree to give it, of course someone will agree."

"I don't know if Yang He was kicked in the head by a donkey or something. Although it is a mountainous area, it is a fortress with everything. If you can just give it to someone, it will have to be reported to the court. I guess he is the only one. The big boss didn't expect this, so he did it as a favor." Xue Changfeng also explained for Yang He.

Yan Mu shook his head, "He is a big boss. He didn't think much about it. I think it's you who are stupid."

"Hey, what do you mean?" Xue Changfeng said unconvinced.

Yan Mu was speechless, "Lu Changan asked you for land, but you didn't agree. Then you went back to Beijing to visit relatives, and then you couldn't go back. After that, Yang He took over for you and gave the land to Lu Changan. It was not reported to the court, just use your brain to think about it, how could such a coincidence happen?"

Xue Changfeng scratched the back of his head, "Why did you make me faint?"

Liu Yunxiang sighed, "It's not that he confused you, but that this matter was done so carefully that it is difficult to find any doubts at the moment. Mr. Xue, go back and think about it. I believe you will figure it out soon."

Seeing that the two of them refused to explain clearly, Xuecheng Feng left hummingly.

Liu Yunxiang shook his head, "As for the case of Mrs. Wuchanghou's murder, we can only guess at most. It's hard to say clearly. It's better for Xue Changfeng to figure it out himself. And once he figures it out, I'm afraid he will be impulsive and not only will he not be able to give his mother If you take revenge, you will get yourself involved."

"He definitely has the ability."

Liu Yunxiang hugged Yan Mu's arm, "But I know you will help him."

"Huh, I don't have the time."

After that, Yan Mu pulled Liu Yunxiang towards the west room, "It's time for us to have a rest."

"Just rest, why are you laughing so hard?"

"No ah!"

"Don't touch me, I'm tired."

"But it's been a long time..."

After taking a bath, Liu Yunxiang said she wanted to drink water. Yan Mu went to pour it for her, but when he came back, he found that she had fallen asleep. He had no choice but to help her up and give her two gulps in a daze.

The next day, Liu Yunxiang woke up when the sun was about three meters high. Remembering that she and Pei Xuan had agreed to visit the jewelry store, she hurriedly got up to freshen up. Jin Yan hurriedly brought breakfast, but she didn't eat it because she had no appetite.

"Is the Seventh Prince going to court?" Liu Yunxiang asked Zijin as he walked out.

"It's said that Xiu Mu went to Wuchang Hou Mansion today."

Liu Yunxiang nodded. Xue Changfeng was not stupid. He probably figured it out last night. Yan Mu was afraid that he would be impulsive, so he went over to persuade him.

When Liu Yunxiang arrived at the jewelry store, Pei Xuan had already arrived.

The shopkeeper told him about the situation in the shop, and Pei Xuan nodded while looking through the account books, "The profit is still good, but it has been declining in recent months."

"Shengjing was forced to close for half a month due to the impact of the Shan Nian Camp. This was short-lived, but overall people did not have much money and it was difficult to do business."

Jewelry stores are particularly affected, but her grain store is still OK.

Liu Yunxiang also told Pei Xuan about the situation of Jiangnan Brocade Workshop. Due to the war in Nanzhou, brocade prices have been rising, which has been squeezing their profits. When the Jiangnan brocade industry recovers little by little, prices will drop.

Pei Xuan thought for a long time and said, "Actually, I have always had an idea."

"what?"

"I want to expand my business to Southern Jin."

This idea is very bold. After all, the Southern Jin Dynasty's intention to annex the three northern countries is very obvious, and there will definitely be war. When war breaks out in the Central Plains, their business across countries will be greatly affected, or even destroyed.

"Of course, this idea is a bit risky, and I can't make up my mind." Seeing Liu Yunxiang didn't speak, Pei Xuan sighed.

Liu Yunxiang shook his head, "Actually, I agree."

"Ah? Do you agree?"

Liu Yunxiang lowered his eyes. In his previous life, he also experienced the Southern Jin's invasion from the north, which triggered a ten-year war. The alliance of the Three Kingdoms in the North jointly resisted the Southern Jin, only to see its northward advance repeatedly frustrated. However, the Three Kingdoms alliance was not reliable and they were suspicious of each other. In the end, at the cost of ceding the thirteen states of Lingnan, the Western Vietnam ceded thousands of miles of pasture and 10 horses, while the Northern Jin Dynasty paid the Southern Jin Dynasty 30 taels in exchange for tens of thousands of captured soldiers. [-] taels of gold and silver, and this war ended.

After that, the four countries recuperated and border trade flourished. Pei Xuan quickly recovered from his previous business foundation in the Southern Jin Dynasty. Taking advantage of this trend, he became the richest businessman across the entire continent.

War is a disaster for some people, but it is also an opportunity for some people. And this life is different from the last one. She doesn't think the war will last so long and the Three Kingdoms will lose so miserably.

"Yes, I agree." Liu Yunxiang looked at Pei Xuan, "The Southern Jin Dynasty has a vast territory and a large number of people. After three dynasties, it is now a time when the people are rich, and their southernmost part of the Southern Jin Dynasty has very smooth trade with some small countries. We can start from Exchange for spices, medicinal materials, jewelry, etc. over there."

"Aren't you afraid of war?"

"Afraid, so we are now taking root there and accumulating contacts, but don't let the business start. We will wait until the war is over to seize the opportunity."

Pei Xuan nodded, "We can't predict when the war will start and end, but it will end one day, and I am willing to take the risk."

"Then I will bear this risk with you."

After the war, the four countries had a period of peace for nearly 30 years. The collision of culture and commerce between the north, south, east and west formed a period of rapid development. If they can prepare early, they can seize the opportunity during this period of rapid development.
