ttle slut, you actually learned such despicable means to seduce my son! Watch me kill you today, or I'll share the same last name as you!"Chunlan, in disarray, screamed and hid behind the iron pillar....Fang Jinshi specially brought over this batch of building materials merchants, nothing more than wanting to take advantage of the situation and make a profit without any effort. The benefit of joining the Chamber of Commerce is that Zhao Xingzhou began to organize caravans to communicate with the outside world. As long as merchants join the Chamber of Commerce, they can obtain these materials at a price lower than the market price at the first time.

Priority purchasing rights.

In normal times, this wouldn't be a big deal. But now that supplies are scarce in the city, anyone who can bring in resources from elsewhere would be a savior to everyone.

Secondly, the Chamber of Commerce used the county magistrate as a banner. Joining the Chamber of Commerce meant having the government as their backing. Their shops were all protected by the government.

In the future, if the imperial court comes up with any good policies, the government offices will prioritize these merchants who join the merchant associations.

Zhao Xingzhou repeatedly emphasized, "The earlier you join the Chamber of Commerce, the more worthwhile it is, because the Chamber of Commerce is just starting up, and you are all considered elders."

"Once the Chamber of Commerce develops, when others want to join later, the threshold will definitely not be as low as it is now."

The merchants hesitated at first, but upon hearing this, they were immediately swayed.

With the Zhao family backing them, what do they have to fear If anyone is going to suffer losses, it will be the Zhao family first.

After Zhao Xingzhou's persuasion, he finally secured the first batch of merchants to join the Chamber of Commerce. After joining the Chamber of Commerce, these people all began to flatter Zhao Xingzhou, hoping that his merchant fleet would prioritize them when it returned from trade.

These are no longer things that Fang Jinshi needs to worry about.

After joining the chamber of commerce, she asked Li Muhǎi to talk to them about purchasing construction materials. It was indeed much simpler, and some even started selling at a discount.

Previously, we were told the payment was due in full upfront. Now they are saying it can be paid in full within three months.

These people stayed at the Zhao family until midday before leaving. Zhao Xingzhou and his son watched from a distance, cold eyes observing. The current Zhao family was no longer the Zhao family of old. Zhao Xingzhou secretly controlled most of the household staff.

He had already stripped his biological father of his authority, making Old Zhao grit his teeth in anger. Unfortunately, even he had a trump card held by that bastard.

This is a handle that could send him to jail at any time, otherwise, how could he just sit there and watch Zhao Xingzhou bring these people home to discuss matters without making a sound.

"Father, are we really just going to let Little Nine get away with this"

"You're the head of the household!"

“Mr. Zhao glared angrily at his eldest son, “If you think you can do better, go ahead! I’ve spent so many years nurturing you, and now you can't even beat your youngest brother What use are you to me”

"You still dare to scheme against my father"

Young Master Zhao was scolded until he was covered in humiliation. He was good at eating, drinking, gambling, and socializing but only had a superficial understanding of business. In fact, over the years, he hadn't learned anything worthwhile and had long since been drained by alcohol and debauchery.

As Zhao Xingzhou sent Fang Jinxiu out, he caught a glimpse of his father and elder brother hiding in the corner from the corner of his eye. He ignored the two.

The Zhao family is already under his control. They can't make any waves anymore. Zhao Xingzhou has sent people to secretly keep an eye on their every move. No matter what they try to do, they can't escape his gaze and will never succeed.

Fang Jinshi has already handed over the task of transporting building materials to Zhao Xingzhou's village. She has secured the investment for him and found him helpers. Now, it all depends on Zhao Xingzhou's own abilities. She hopes he won't disappoint her.

The carriage home was already prepared. Fang Jinshi saw that it wasn't too early, so she quickly urged everyone to get in the carriage and prepare to leave.

Look at the sun, even if you rode a fast horse back to the village, it should be dark by now.

She agreed to go back in three days, which must mean three days, or else he'd worry.

Zhao Xingzhou kept close behind Fang Jinxiu, "Are you leaving again"

Fang Jinxiu's scalp tingled. Couldn't he speak in anything other than a resentful husband's tone

"If there's anything about the Chamber of Commerce that you can't handle, just send someone to tell me. Thanks for the gift you prepared for me. Now go back."

She could only act professionally. After finishing her words, she lowered the car curtain and didn't dare to look at Zhao Xingzhou even for a second longer.

Next time, it's better to have someone else go into the city to coordinate with him. She already has a good reputation, and the intentions of other men can only be respected from afar.

Fan Jinshi rushed all the way and reached the foot of the mountain when it was still dark. Yu Lian looked at the pitch-black mountain and felt a little scared.

"Sister-in-law, are we really going to climb the mountain in the dark"

"I'm afraid."

Fang Jinshi handed her the torch in his hand, “Don’t be afraid, your elder brother will definitely come out to greet us.”Bai told me almost everything that had happened at home over the past four years. Establishing Jinshi Mountain Villa was no easy feat, and what Jinxiu did was beyond what an ordinary woman could achie...
