Chapter 385: Provoked and returned in disgrace
After seeing off Shopkeeper Xue, Xiao Yan'an turned to look at Ji Chuhe.
"Madam, actually, you don't have to be so serious every time. As a family, how can we calculate everything so clearly every time?"
"Prince, I am very grateful for your respect for me. No matter what I think, you have never objected and always stand behind me unconditionally."
"I am your husband, am I not? You are my wife, and this is what I should do."
"The respect that the prince has for me is greater than that of countless other men in the world."
Xiao Yanan couldn't help but laugh. This sentence sounded really comfortable.
"I separated the accounts, one part was used for the expenses of the Prince's Mansion, and the other part was deposited in my name. It became my private property, completely mine alone. How could I not even settle the payment for the goods with Mother? If I don't settle it this time, and I won't settle it next time, over time, won't it become a messy account?"
"Madam, mother wants to give you all the property in the palace. How could this be such a mess?"
"At the very least, we need to make a clear distinction for now." Ji Chuhe still insisted on his opinion.
"It depends on you, everything depends on you."
Liao Yunfei looked at Xiao Yanan and Ji Chuhe from afar, her eyes seemed to be filled with poison.
She stepped out of the carriage and walked towards the two of them.
When Xiao Yanan saw Liao Yunfei, the smile on his face froze.
He knew that ***'s shop was run by Liao Yunfei. It seemed that Liao Yunfei had performed well during this period and had made *** completely trust her.
"Prince, Madam." Liao Yunfei bowed to the two of them.
"Liao Yunfei, what are you doing here?" Xiao Yan'an asked rudely.
"I heard that the prince has taken in another concubine. I came here to congratulate him."
"This matter has nothing to do with you, so you don't have to do anything unnecessary."
"Prince, no matter what, I am still your concubine. Your divorce letters are invalid."
Xiao Yan'an had never had the urge to hit a woman, but with Liao Yunfei, he really couldn't help but want to hit her.
"Liao Yunfei, let me guess, what benefits did *** promise you?" Ji Chuhe suddenly asked.
Liao Yunfei looked at Ji Chuhe with a smile, "Madam, guess what."
"I promised you the position of the Crown Prince's wife, right?"
Xiao Yan'an's eyes suddenly darkened! If Liao Yunfei was allowed to be his wife, he might as well kill Liao Yunfei and put an end to it all to save trouble!
"Madam is really good at predicting things." Liao Yunfei didn't pretend anymore. She just came here to have some fun.
"That girl is so nice to you. Do you think that the Queen Mother wants to keep the Crown Prince in the imperial capital as a hostage just to replace me, the Crown Prince's wife? Is she targeting me?" Ji Chuhe asked with a smile.
Liao Yunfei pondered over this sentence, and the smile on his face disappeared. "What do you mean by this?"
"It means exactly what it says. Liao Yunfei, you are very smart. I believe you can figure it out."
Liao Yunfei left angrily.
Sitting in the carriage, I kept thinking about what Ji Chuhe had just said.
She had always thought that the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother were afraid of Ji Chuhe's ability and did not want Xiao Yanan to have such a capable person around to help him.
But she never thought about it deeply.
The Queen Mother and the Queen Mother took great pains to eliminate the people around Xiao Yan'an.
What is your attitude towards Xiao Yanan?
Xiao Yan'an was actually held as a hostage in the imperial capital, which meant that the person the Queen Mother really wanted to control was Prince Huaiyang!
The Prince of Huaiyang was a king, and the Queen Mother's decision to keep Xiao Yan'an was just a cover. The person who really had this intention should be the Emperor!
The Emperor wants to deal with Prince Huaiyang!
Liao Yunfei's heart skipped a beat, and she was shocked by the result she had guessed.
If the emperor really wants to deal with Prince Huaiyang, the Huaiyang Palace will definitely not have a good ending!
Or, die.
Or, like King Ping now.
What's the point of her becoming Xiao Yan'an's wife? Wouldn't she still be implicated by the Huaiyang Palace?
"No, that's not the case. Ji Chuhe is definitely not so kind as to tell me this." Liao Yunfei immediately denied her own thoughts.
Ji Chuhe must have done this on purpose! Don't think she doesn't know what's going on in the court.
The emperor now places great importance on people from the Rongguo Mansion.
If the emperor wanted to get rid of Prince Huaiyang, he would never allow anyone from the Rongguo Mansion to gain power.
Just based on this point, she can deny Ji Chuhe's statement.
Fortunately, she reacted quickly enough and was not led by Ji Chuhe.
……
Although Ji Chuhe's shop business is not very good, there are still some people coming to buy things every day.
The popularity of *** has also dropped a bit, but there are still many people every day.
Ji Chuhe was not idle either, she had a new idea.
After she shared this idea with Xiao Yan'an, she immediately got Xiao Yan'an's support.
She wanted to draw an album of the goods in the shop, marking the prices and basic information of the goods, and then send the albums to various prefectures when delivering the spices.
She now delivers many custom-made spices to your door.
She must make good use of the connections in the imperial capital that she opened up through spices.
"Madam, what are your plans after delivering these picture albums?" Xiao Yan'an just felt curious.
"If they like the goods in the catalog, they can make a list and send it to us. Our people will deliver the goods directly to their homes. If they are sure they want them, they can keep the goods. If they don't want them, it will be considered that we made a wasted trip. Anyway, there is no loss."
"We have a lot of things in our shop that are suitable for ladies. Even if they come out to shop, they won't come out every day. Since customers can't come to our shop, we will try to do business in customers' homes."
"There are so many servants in these mansions. They also need to buy things. However, they have to serve their masters and it is impossible for them to go out. They all ask the mansion's purchasing department for help. Sometimes the person in charge of purchasing will charge some fees. If we can deliver the goods to them, they will most likely choose to buy our goods."
After listening to this, Xiao Yan'an looked at Ji Chuhe with admiration.
"Ma'am, how did you come up with this idea?"
“In business, the most important thing is to be flexible and do whatever you can to make the money you can.”
"Madam, let's do as you say. Let's do it right away."
"Thank you for your hard work, my lord. There are so many goods in the shop, and it is not an easy task to draw the atlas."
"I draw a version and then have someone make a copy. It's not hard at all. Madam, rest assured. I will never let you down."
Xiao Yanan is also a person with strong execution ability, and he went to the shop immediately.
Liao Yunfei looked at the account book and was delighted.
Ji Chuhe has not made any move for such a long time, he must have not been able to think of any good solution.
Therefore, the things in Ji Chuhe’s shop are just going to rot in the shop!
