After eating, Ye Yun'er had to go to the appointment and met with Qiao Shilang to discuss business matters, so even Cicada'er's side had to be postponed for a while.

Mu Yihan originally wanted to take her to investigate Shen Changzai's location, but seeing that she was so busy, he simply postponed this business for a day and accompanied her.

Mu Qingyuan heard that the two of them were going to Qiao Shilang's place, so Mao recommended himself: "I know his house, I'll take you there." ”

Although Ye Yun'er didn't like her to follow her, after all, people helped guide the way and offered the carriage, so she was embarrassed to refuse.

Along the way, Mu Qingyuan sat with them, especially sitting very close to Mu Yihan, currying favor with them in every possible way, like very intimate brothers and sisters.

Ye Yun'er looked as sour as if she had eaten sour grapes on the side, especially when she saw Mu Yihan talking to her from time to time, and then throwing away the charming smile, which made her even more angry.

Why didn't he just throw a cold face at her like he did for Princess Yanxi?

Could it be that he really regarded it as his own cousin?

Because she was uncomfortable, she said very little along the way.

Finally came to the door of Qiao Shilang's mansion, and there were already people waiting.

The three of them were invited in, and Qiao Shilang came up to meet them with two other foreigners with mustaches.

The form of this greeting is only a slight nod, and then a pat on the shoulder, which can be regarded as a sign of welcome to the first meeting.

Qiao Shilang pointed to the two foreigners and introduced to Ye Yun'er: "This is the Javanese merchant I mentioned to you yesterday, Miss Ye, I have been interacting with them and doing this obsidian business. ”

Ye Yun'er raised her eyebrows, "What kind of business are you doing, are you also opening a workshop to make jewelry and sell it?" ”

"I don't make jewelry, I only decorate household items." Qiao Shilang replied, "And I can't get away from my official business, my two younger brothers are helping me take care of it, they are originally carpenters, and they are very good at doing this." ”

"So, if I do business with them, how can they send these gems to the north?" Ye Yun'er asked again, "The road is so far, I'm afraid the cost will increase accordingly, right?" ”

Qiao Shilang talked to the two of them for a while in the words of Java, and seemed to be relaying Ye Yun'er's words to them.

The two listened, looked at Ye Yun'er, and began to babble alone.

Ye Yun'er couldn't understand a word, so she had to turn to look at Qiao Shilang and wait for him to translate.

Qiao Shilang smiled slightly, and said to Ye Yun'er: "People said that this cost naturally has to be increased. Because they can't get to the north from here, they have to pass through the Ember Kingdom and the two smaller countries in the southeast. And every country you go to has to pay a tariff, and the cost can be more than two or three times more than here. ”

Ye Yun'er gasped and wrinkled her eyebrows slightly, "Since that's the case, then what did you call me over to discuss with them?" Do you want me to do a loss-making business? ”

"Miss Ye, don't worry?" Qiao Shilang continued to smile like a tiger, trying to dissolve the embarrassed frozen air, "Because in our place, foreigners only need to pay a small part of the customs duties when they come to do business, so they all like to come to us to do business. Can you follow their example? ”

When Ye Yun'er heard this, she couldn't help but be dumbfounded, "You mean, let me open a shop here?" But when I go back to the north, I can't come back easily, so won't the money be wasted? ”

Qiao Shilang disagreed, glanced at Mu Yihan again, and said, "You should ask the fourth prince, will this money be wasted?" As long as the four princes are permanently friendly with our king, are you worried that the king will not help you develop and grow your business? Your money is even more coveted by no one in the bank! ”

Ye Yun'er froze in place, and couldn't help but look at Mu Yihan.

She finally understands a little, where is Qiao Shilang lobbying her to pull business for her, and he is obviously trying to win over Mu Yihan for the King of Southwest?!

Mu Yihan's face was slightly cold, and before he could say anything, Mu Qingyuan on the side said with a deep disbelief on his face: "Qiao Shilang is right. My father is very fond of Brother Yi Han, and he can't wait to have a long and harmonious relationship with him. If there is such a business chain between you, you can't cut off this friendly relationship if you want to! ”

Qiao Shilang's eyebrows trembled twice, and he looked at Mu Qingyuan as if pleading, as if pleading: Miss, can you not say it so directly? Can you be tactful and more inciting......

But even if Mu Qingyuan didn't say it so clearly, Mu Yihan and Ye Yun'er expected to get this layer.

Ye Yun'er was not happy at first, "Okay, Qiao Shilang, I thought you really wanted to do business with me, but you had other plans?" Hmph, I want to use this to implicate the fourth prince, so that he will be difficult to be a person on both the southwest king and the emperor, but I will not agree to it first! ”

Qiao Shilang opened his mouth.

He only did this at the behest of the king of the southwest, and he had long expected this outcome, and it was really difficult to persuade them to agree.

Mu Qingyuan was so angry by Ye Yun'er's reprimand, as if this reprimand was aimed at her.

"What kind of person do you think of us as you, woman? My father did not have such a bad heart, and he would never be involved in such a trivial matter. This is all Qiao Shilang's single-minded consideration for you, and it is your business not to agree, but don't slander our good intentions in turn? ”

Ye Yun'er was about to say something, but she heard Mu Yihan's cold voice interrupt them, and she came unhurriedly, "We can do this business." ”

This sentence made Ye Yun'er very incredible, and she looked at him with wide eyes.

Even Qiao Shilang and Mu Qingyuan couldn't help but be surprised, looking at Mu Yihan's expression, they didn't know whether they were surprised or happy.

Could it be that Mu Yihan decided to attach himself to the King of the Southwest, and from then on he would not be able to oppose the Apocalypse Dynasty?

But the next words completely shattered their illusions.

"It's okay to do business, but in the eyes of the outside world, the head of this business is still Qiao Shilang, so can't you avoid extraneous branches?"

Qiao Shilang was stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood what he meant.

Co-author Mu Yihan, do you want to hide from the world?

But in this case, is it not very different from the command of the king of the southwest, and does not achieve their purpose?

"No, no, no." Qiao Shilang immediately waved his hand to object, "You haven't been here for a long time, if something goes wrong with this business, then isn't it me who people are looking for?" I don't deserve to be wronged. ”
