Xie Liuzheng nodded, "Can you protect her?"

?

Facing the girl's clear and pure eyes, Zhou Zheng nodded very firmly.

?

"I can!"

?

Xie Liuzheng didn't say anything else afterwards.

?

She believed in Pingxi Hou's oath, and as long as he could protect her mother, that would be enough.

?

Of course, Xie Liuzheng would not put all the responsibility on Pingxi Hou, she would also protect her mother secretly.

?

No matter in past or present life, she and Xie Xiangyu and her daughter are the closest relatives. Even though she and Xie Xiangyu were not close in her past life, Xie Xiangyu still spent all her family wealth just to save her life.

?

Xie Liuzheng will never and cannot forget such selfless maternal love.

?

Now she will protect Xie Xiangyu in her own way.

?

As for why she forced Pingxi Hou to make a promise, it was entirely to test him, and it was obvious that Pingxi Hou passed the test.

?

He will do his best to protect his woman, and that is enough.

?

The two of them didn't speak, and walked to Xiangyu Courtyard in silence. Xie Xiangyu saw the two of them coming together and waved at them.

?

"You guys came at the right time. I just asked my servants to buy some Guiji cakes. Let's eat together!"

?

Hearing this, Xie Liuzheng walked forward with a smile, picked up a piece of cake, and stuffed it into his mouth impatiently.

?

“This is so delicious!”

?

Xie Xiangyu took a handkerchief and helped her wipe the crumbs from the corners of her mouth.

?

"Eat slowly, there's plenty!"

?

Of course, she did not forget Pingxi Hou, and picked out a piece of his favorite food and handed it to him.

?

Pingxi Hou took it with a smile.

?

The three of them sat down and tasted the sweet and delicious snacks.

?

Afterwards, Pingxi Hou went to deal with urgent matters from the capital, and Xie Liuzheng accompanied Xie Xiangyu to drink tea and chat.

?

But as Fang Cheng and a number of shop owners came one after another, Xie Liuzheng felt something was strange.

?

But she didn't ask anything. She just nodded to the shopkeeper and stood obediently beside Xie Xiangyu.

?

"Boss, I wonder why you called us all here today? Are you going to make a big move?"

?

Manager Wang of Xie Family Embroidery Workshop put down the Longjing tea in his hand with a smile, and asked everyone about their thoughts.

?

Xie Liuzheng was also confused.

?

But with so many shopkeepers present, she didn't say much.

?

But she just had an idea in her mind.

?

So Xie Liuzheng stood silently beside her mother, watching her mother confidently and ostentatiously chatting and laughing with these shopkeepers who spoke in a human way to human beings and lied to devils.

?

"Manager Wang is still so impatient. You can't do this. I will find you a fiercer wife to look after you someday!"

?

When Shopkeeper Wang heard this, he thanked him happily.

?

"That's great! I'd like to thank you very much!"

?

Seeing this, the other shopkeepers were amused by Shopkeeper Wang.

?

The atmosphere is very harmonious.

?

Then Xie Xiangyu said seriously, "You are all my benefactors. You have been with me for many years. I specially invited you all to come here today because I have something important to discuss."

?

"Master, please give us your orders! We are all ears."

?

If at first these shopkeepers were not quite convinced when they saw that Xie Xiangyu was a woman doing business, but over the years, they have all witnessed Xie Xiangyu's abilities!

?

It is not easy for a woman to do business, but Xie Xiangyu, through her own efforts, made the Xie family the richest family in Yangzhou City. Even ordinary men would find it difficult to do, but Xie Xiangyu did it.

?

This is really admirable!

?

All those present were the valuable treasures of the Xie family. In addition to paying them several times more than the market price every year, Xie Xiangyu would not forget to send gifts to the homes of many shopkeepers during the holidays. Whenever there was something going on at the shopkeepers' homes, Xie Xiangyu would visit them in person no matter how busy she was.

?

Therefore, although these shopkeepers are all shrewd people, they are naturally aware of Xie Xiangyu's respect for them. Unless they are crazy, they will naturally not betray the Xie family for some petty profits.

?

Not to mention the entire Yangzhou city, no one can offer a better reward than what Xie Xiangyu offered. Even if you go to the capital, the price is no better than this.

?

So everyone respected Xie Xiangyu very much.

?

Seeing that everyone started to talk, Xie Xiangyu didn't keep them in suspense and went straight to the point.

?

"I plan to go to the capital!"

?

"What? Going to the capital?"

?

Many shopkeepers were shocked when they heard Xie Xiangyu's decision.

?

Of course, they all knew that Xie Xiangyu and Pingxi Hou were about to get married, and Xie Xiangyu would definitely follow Pingxi Hou to the capital.

?

But they never thought that Xie Xiangyu wanted to move all the business to the capital!

?

In Yangzhou City, the Xie family is considered to be second to none, but in the capital city where there are many powerful and wealthy people, it is hard to say.

?

Although they had the protection of Marquis Pingxi, the shopkeepers were still worried.

?

After all, their families are all in Yangzhou. If they want to follow Xie Xiangyu to the capital to develop, what should their family do?

?

If they mobilized a large number of people to take all their family members to the capital before they had established themselves firmly in the capital, then if they could not survive in the future, wouldn't they have to return in disgrace?

?

Shopkeepers naturally have to consider such realistic concerns carefully.

?

When Xie Liuzheng heard her mother's decision, she understood it. In fact, she had guessed it just now, but she didn't say it until her mother announced it.

?

Now seeing the shopkeepers starting to whisper to each other, Xie Liuzheng quietly held her mother's hand.

?

Sensing her daughter's warmth, Xie Xiangyu turned around and smiled at her, then she raised her voice and asked, "Be quiet! If you have any concerns, you can tell me!"

?

“If there’s a problem, we solve it.”

?

At this moment, Huang, the shopkeeper of a ready-made clothing store, spoke with some concern, "Boss, we shouldn't question your decision! But if we go to the capital, the risks are hard to predict! After all, the capital is different from Yangzhou. There are businesses of powerful families everywhere. If we go there rashly, the situation will be very difficult!"

?

"Although Yangzhou City is not as good as Beijing, we have been steadily developing here for so many years and have many old customers. Once we move to Beijing, it means we have to start all over again! The boss must have considered the risks involved, right?"

?

Hearing this, Xie Xiangyu nodded and said, "Manager Huang, you are right. It is true that we are going to the capital this time, and we don't know whether it will be good or bad. But if I want to compete for the imperial merchant, I must go to the capital to try my luck!"

?

In fact, whether in the past life or in this life, Xie Xiangyu has never given up the idea of ​​competing for the imperial merchant, but she had many concerns and worries before.

?

But after hearing about her daughter's experience in her previous life, Xie Xiangyu decided to face the challenge.

?

It’s not like she can’t afford to lose!

?

At worst, she could start over again. Anyway, she was determined to go to the capital to give it a try.

?

As for these shopkeepers, she doesn't force them!
