Chapter 493: Little Money-grubber

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Zhou Linghuai tapped her forehead lightly. “Naughty~”

Yu Youyao stuck out her tongue. “The Happy Heart Escort Company currently mainly escorts those heading to the west, Huguang, Liangguang, and the five prefectures of the Central Plains. It covers more than ten prefectures in the country.”

Zhou Linghuai was a little surprised. He did not expect that when the escort business was first established, it would already be so big. “I’ve underestimated you.”

Yu Youyao tilted her head. “Cousin, you’re too well known. Zhou Yonghe took the document you prepared and easily cleared the layers of barriers between the various prefectures.”

“The guards of the Wang Residence are all experienced soldiers who have fought against the Di people. In terms of skills, they definitely can’t compare to martial artists with profound martial arts. In terms of actual combat, even martial artists with profound martial arts don’t dare to fight them head-on.”

“Look, I have all the channels and strength. I don’t lack money. It’s not like I can’t afford to set up a stall. I’ll definitely make this big. Moreover, I have a lot of businesses under my name. I won’t lose money escorting my own supplies.”

They were transporting goods from the south to the north, and from the north to the south. This was a deal that they felt was not a loss.

She had many businesses under her name, so she did not have to worry about selling them.

If there were too many goods on hand, the Xie family was also on board to share the risk.

With the Xie family’s channels, what could they not sell?!

Since she was running an escort business, she included dividends for the Xie family. In business, it wasn’t like she was taking advantage of them for nothing. She wouldn’t feel any pressure even if she used the Xie family to earn money together.

Her ambition was much greater than he had thought. Zhou Linghuai smiled.

“You’re right. Then, I still have a good business in my hands. I wonder if Eldest Miss Yu, who doesn’t lack money, is interested in working with me?”

It had been a few months since they last met. Her greed for money was even greater than before

At the mention of business, her eyes lit up.

Since she liked to earn money so much, he would fulfill her wish.

Yu Youyao thought for a moment and an idea flashed through her mind.

“Cousin has attacked Song Xiuwen. Clearly, he has taken a fancy to Song Xiuwen’s job. After Song Xiuwen falls, the person who fills Song Xiuwen’s position will definitely be Cousin’s own people. Maritime trade has to go through the coastal navy. It can also be convenient to have our own people. So Cousin, do you want to interfere in maritime trade?”

Her suggestion was definitely not groundless.

Instead, it was because she knew her cousin well. Since he had entered Jiangnan, it was impossible for him to give away the fat meat in his hands.

Zhou Linghuai smiled but said nothing.

Yu Youyao glanced at her cousin and continued to analyze. “Even if Cousin’s plan is flawless, maritime trade isn’t easy to do. After all, the risks at sea are unpredictable. The Imperial Court has its own merchant ship, and you can probably get your hands on the most important maritime map. You can also resolve the construction of the merchant ship yourself. However, the most important thing when traveling on the sea is still your seafaring experience. With rich experience, you can avoid many calamities and deal with many sudden situations at sea. You can also avoid losing everything and taking many detours.”

Zhou Linghuai ate another piece of Eight Treasures Cake. “So?”

Yu Youyao pursed her lips. “I have two merchant ships in the Xie Residence.

The people on the merchant ships are all carefully selected by the Xie Residence. They have the most seafaring experience. These people are all under my name. Any one of them can be relied on independently.”

“Of course, the Xie family isn’t the only one in the Great Zhou Dynasty that does maritime trade. However, Cousin is very ambitious, so he’s naturally unwilling to fight on a small scale. Only the Xie family that has a strong foundation can support Cousin’s ambition.”

She would either not do it or do her best. In some ways, she and her cousin were still very similar.

The merchant ships under her name were temporarily under the control of the Xie family.

It was true that her cousin was working with her, but it was best to obtain the support of the Xie family through her.

Zhou Linghuai smiled. “I wonder if Cousin is interested?”

Yu Youyao said, “Of course I’m interested. Who would complain about having too much money? However, even brothers have to settle accounts clearly.

Cousin will contribute the most to the profits of maritime trade and will take 50% of the profits. I’ll take 30% and the Xie family will get 20%. What do you think?”

Her merchant ship was also using the Xie family’s connections. With the Xie family’s contributions, 20% of the profits was not bad.

Zhou Linghuai had no objections. “We’ll do as Cousin says.”

It wasn’t impossible to give her more benefits, but Yu Youyao was always especially persistent when it came to benefits, and she wouldn’t accept them easily.

Yu Youyao’s method was also the best.

If too many personal feelings were mixed in with benefits, it was easy to not differentiate between public and private matters. It was also easier to cause conflict and estrangement. Of course, it was also easier to cause losses. To him, it was not a big deal to give all the benefits of maritime trade to Yu Youyao.

The two of them chatted for a while more. The specific details of maritime trade had already been finalized. When the contract was confirmed, they could start preparing.

Although Song Xiuwen’s case was still under investigation, Yu Youyao was not worried that there would be any changes in the maritime trade.

There were too many things that needed to be prepared for maritime trade. The earlier they prepared) the earlier they would be able to execute.

After chatting about work, Yu Youyao asked, “By the way, since Cousin has accepted the job related to the ‘Documentary Scriptures’, does that mean that you still have to stay in the capital for a few more years?

Although she had some guesses, she was still a little uncertain without hearing her cousin say it himself.

Zhou Linghuai could tell that although the little girl tried her best to pretend that she was just asking casually when she asked this, her eyes subconsciously revealed an expectant expression.

His smile deepened as he said, “I still have many things to deal with in the capital. I’ll have to trouble you for a long time in the future. Cousin, please

don’t mind.”

Yu Youyao’s eyes lit up, and she smiled until her eyes curved. She quickly said, “It’s not troublesome at all. I can’t wait for Cousin to stay in the Yu Residence forever. Why would I despise you?

The little girl’s eyes were bright, and her smile was sincere. How could anyone bear to abandon her?

He had already achieved his goal of entering the capital this time. After accepting the title of King of the North, he would be able to return to Youzhou. The rest of the matter had been planned, so there was no need for him to stay in the capital personally.

However, he was not in a hurry to leave.

Yu Youyao thought of something else and felt a little uneasy. “Cousin, you’re going to inherit the title soon, right? If you stay in the capital, what will happen to the war in the north?”

Every autumn, the Di people would go to the border city of the north to burn, kill, and plunder.

Zhou Linghuai smiled. “Don’t worry. The current general guarding Youzhou is originally a general under me. He’s quite talented. Not long after, the emperor will send Chang Ningbo to Youzhou to assist in the battle. There are still 3,000 of my elite troops in the north. If the Di people dare to advance, they won’t be able to retreat.”

It was impossible to invade on a large scale.

Although the Northern Barbarians were a large tribe, their population was inferior to the Great Zhou. In the battle four years ago, the Di people had also suffered heavy losses and urgently needed to recuperate after the battle. That was why the Marquis of Changxing could safely guard Youzhou for three years..
