After arriving at the upper room, Mrs. Yang dismissed the people around her, leaving only Liu and Shen Xingyi. Liu waited for Mrs. Yang and Qin Mingyue and the others to eat tea.

Mrs. Yang said slowly: "Mingyue, please come over today, in addition to asking you to come and take a break, our mother and son are happy, there is another thing I want to ask you." ”

Qin Mingyue hurriedly said: "Sister-in-law and I are polite, if there is anything, you just have to tell me, where to use a word." Mingyue can't afford it. ”

Seeing Qin Mingyue's attitude, Mrs. Yang became more and more satisfied, and she said with a smile: "Actually, our Shen family's business is a maritime business, and you know that you want to come here." This business on the sea is indeed very profitable. Those porcelain, tea, and silk of our Great Zhou were shipped overseas, and they were all ten times or even dozens of times the price. In addition, there are some good things overseas, such as peppercorns, peppers, spices, pearls, gemstones, etc., as long as they are safely transported to Dazhou, they are all about ten times the profit. ”

As soon as she said this, Qin Mingyue's heart moved. Overseas business profiteering, this is a well-known thing, Qin Mingyue didn't think of meddling in this. After all, there are already several big families in control, and the leader is the Shen family, how can it be good to meddle in this business? However, just now when Mrs. Yang said the word silk, Qin Mingyue thought that in the future, if the weaving and dyeing workshop in her hand and He Jinfang's silk business were done, could she sell it directly to the Shen family's caravan and let them sell it overseas, which must also be a good market.

Mrs. Yang continued: "Such a huge profit has made our Shen family rich. Others don't know, but the little junior sister must know that as a national teacher, there are many places for its practical money. If our old national teacher relies on the power in his hands to seek benefits, it can be said that it is very convenient. But where is he like that? He never used the power in his hands to make a profit. The expenses of this big family, as well as the expenses of the old national teacher himself, are also huge, how can this come about, naturally it depends on this maritime business. ”

"Speaking of which, this maritime business was established in the hands of my mother-in-law. At first, it was just a small sea boat. Later, the business grew bigger and bigger, and the current huge fleet was formed. Among the maritime merchants of the Great Zhou, the business of our Shen family is the most huge. Part of the reason for this is because my mother-in-law was very good at management back then, and after I took over, Xiao Gui Cao followed and managed well. However, a larger part of the reason, does the junior sister know why? ”

Well, that's down to business. When Qin Mingyue came, she knew that this should be the case. Therefore, she was not surprised, and asked directly: "But because the Shen family's fleet has never had major problems, and it has never capsized?" ”

Mrs. Yang smiled: "Serious business." The little sister is smart. The reason why the maritime business is profitable is because of the huge risks. When a cargo ship goes to sea, there is only a two- or three-percent chance of returning with a full load. So, the profits are so huge. The same is true of other maritime families in the Great Zhou, and their family's sea ships capsize every year. As soon as the ship capsizes, it is enough to lose one ship, and the whole ship's cargo is also lost. ”

"However, only our Shen family's cargo ship has never capsized. The reason for this is that every time our sea ship goes to sea, the old national teacher has personally divined, and the time and route have been accurately calculated. Therefore, you can avoid strong winds and waves to the greatest extent and arrive safely. ”

"In this way, after decades of accumulation, the Shen family's fleet has today's scale, and the Shen family has today's wealth."

Speaking of this, Mrs. Yang deliberately took a closer look at Qin Mingyue's expression. Seeing that Qin Mingyue didn't show the slightest envy, she couldn't help but nod secretly in her heart. Qin Mingyue was born in the fallen Liguo Mansion, and it is said that life is in dire straits, which can be seen from Qin Mingyue's dress. I heard that the Qin family has already taken over the internal affairs of the Liguo Mansion by Qin Mingyue, and the huge family has to be supported by a little girl from Qin Mingyue, which is not a lot of pressure. However, when Qin Mingyue heard that the Shen family had such a lucrative business, she didn't envy it at all, and this kind of heart was rare.

Mrs. Yang thought in her heart, but she was still saying, "I heard that the Qin family's business is now under the management of you junior sister?" I don't know, are you interested in investing in our Shen family's fleet and doing maritime trade business together? ”

When Qin Mingyue heard this, she was immediately stunned. How much profit does such a huge business make every year? Why do you want to give her shares for such a plain reason?

Qin Mingyue said: "Sister-in-law, you know a thing or two about our family's affairs. Most of the house has been sold out, where is the money to buy shares? Besides, the Shen family is not short of this share money, right? ”

Seeing that Qin Mingyue was so straightforward, Mrs. Yang could only open up and say, "Our Shen family doesn't want the little junior sister to take the silver to buy shares. As the little junior sister just said, our Shen family really does not lack these shares of silver, but we hope to enjoy this wealth with the little junior sister, and in the future, we also hope that the little junior sister can shelter the Shen family. Therefore, we are ready to give the little junior sister 30% of dry shares, and the little junior sister only needs to enjoy the profits, and does not need to take out the silver to invest. ”

Mrs. Yang said it so bluntly, Qin Mingyue also understood. Her master is already old, and he really doesn't have a few years to live. In her previous life, after her apprenticeship, in less than five years, Shen Guoshi went to immortality. After Shen Guoshi Immortal left, the Shen family was indeed not as powerful as before.

However, at that time, as the apprentice of Shen Guoshi, he was already a national teacher, and he was in power, and he tightly protected the Shen family, so that the Shen family successfully passed the weak period, not only kept the wealth, but also prospered. Therefore, Mrs. Yang repeatedly defended Qin Mingyue.

At that time, the Shen family also gave Qin Mingyue sixty percent of the dry shares, which could bring Qin Mingyue nearly two million taels of silver every year. Of course, Qin Mingyue will also take the time to calculate the date and route of the voyage for the Shen family every year.

However, this happened after Shen Guoshi went to the Immortal and Qin Mingyue became the National Teacher, where is the current apprenticeship?

So Qin Mingyue was a little confused for a while.

Qin Mingyue looked at Mrs. Yang's earnest eyes, and after thinking about it slightly, she understood. Come to think of it, in this life, I am so close to them, so that they want to have a relationship with themselves in advance, right?

In fact, they are also too worried. In this life, I came back and changed a lot of things. First of all, the master has received his own help in this life, and he sees the hope of a breakthrough. Don't look at the master's age now, if he really breaks through, I'm afraid that the lifespan will increase. As long as the master is alive, even if he is not a national teacher, there is no problem in sheltering the Shen family.

Therefore, Qin Mingyue estimated that within ten or twenty years, the Shen family might not need their own protection. Therefore, Qin Mingyue smiled and said, "This is not needed." ”

Mrs. Yang's face immediately changed.
