The reason why Shengyi didn't ask questions at that time was because she was afraid of saying the wrong thing. She originally planned to act according to Mudan's arrangement.Seeing this, Mudan quickly dispelled her concerns, emphasizing that the two of them had equal status and were running a business together. If she had any questions, she could ask them directly.In Shengyi's mind, Mudan was literate and proficient in business, so she must have come from a famous family.As for her own life experience, Mudan did not talk much, but cleverly changed the subject and asked Shengyi what her plans were if she had no worries about her wealth in the future.Shengyi was speechless for a moment, so Mudan suggested that she learn to read so that she could help her manage her accounts in the future, and Shengyi happily agreed.
The next day, Mudan went to the Chiang Mansion, which happened to be the day when the Chiang Mansion opened its warehouse. The Chuanyu guard explained that the officials queuing up were here to give gifts to the Chiang Mansion.Among them, Feng Sima brought a huge red coral with a strange stone, but was rejected by Chuanyu on the grounds of lack of sincerity.Feng Sima refused, so Chuan Yu led him to the backyard.When he saw the strange red coral in the backyard that was more than twice as big as the one given by Feng Sima, Feng Sima was so shocked that he almost fell down.Yin Jiancheng praised Jiang Changyang very much and gave him a basket of precious pearls called Magpie Eggs.Jiang Changyang responded with a Grasshopper, known as the "Victorious General", which was said to be a gift from the emperor.
Mudan was curious whether the Jiang Mansion would open a warehouse on the 15th of next month. Chuanyu explained that it was a good day for business operations. In fact, it was just a matter of changing the location of the items in the warehouse to make room for continued filling.He Weifang's mind was sharp and he had already seen that Jiang Changyang was deliberately creating the illusion of extravagance to conceal certain truths.And Chuanyu told her everything he knew, perhaps just because he wanted to use her mouth to spread the news so that more people would believe it.Jiang Changyang tentatively asked her if she wanted to know what was really hidden, but Mudan did not want to offend him and quickly stated that she had no such intention.Jiang Changyang said no more and only told her that Qiongtai Jade Dew was placed in the study.
On the other side, Liu Zishu accompanied the county magistrate to Jia Erlang's house for a banquet. He boasted that the paintings he sent were elegant and extraordinary, but unexpectedly found that Jia Erlang's home had a mountain of paintings by Wu Huasheng. His father was a close friend of Wu Huasheng and could be invited to the scene at any time.Painting.Liu Zishu originally wanted to ask Jia Erlang for advice on water transportation, but Jia Erlang, who came from a well-known family, only wanted to have fun.Two servants of the Jia family praised the strange woman selling flowers for making peonies affordable for ordinary people. Liu Zishu heard this and he vaguely thought that the strange woman selling flowers might be He Weifang.Liu Zishu couldn't stand the extravagance here, so he said goodbye and left, asking Qiushi to go to the flower market on the way.
Mudan met a liar on the road who deliberately injured the old man's donkey, and then claimed compensation from the old man on the grounds that the donkey was frightened and caused the expensive gunpowder golden elixir and peony flowers to be broken.Mudan resourcefully helped, and the scammer hurriedly fled with some money, while Mudan accepted the pot of peonies.Liu Zishu found out at the flower stall that the woman selling flowers was Qin Shengyi, not He Weifang, and felt disappointed.However, as fate would have it, Liu Zishu met Mudan again on the road. This time he mustered up the courage to confess his feelings to Mudan, but was flatly rejected by Mudan. She said she only hated him.
He Weifang took the gunpowder elixir back and took good care of it, hoping that it would bloom and sell for a good price.Unexpectedly, it was accidentally smashed by Jiang Changyang's good friend Sanlang.Mudan made a contract with Sanlang. If she could take good care of the flower and make it bloom, Sanlang would compensate her no matter what price she offered.If flowers fail to bloom, Saburo can only compensate at the ordinary flower price.At this time, Wang Qing was jealous when he saw that the business of Shengyi's flower stall was booming, so he pretended to sue for peace and wanted to cause trouble, but was stopped by Peony who arrived in time.
