Forced to be a concubine, I went to my husband's place to become a wealthy merchant

Chapter 377

After Ye Xi returned home, he slept until noon almost every day.

On this day, Ye Xi had just gotten up and was about to have breakfast when her mother called her aside again: "Xi'er, you said that the adult is back, can we still go see the child?"

Ye Xi was about to say that there was nothing wrong with that, but immediately thought of the fact that he was going to make trouble and refuse to serve.

If this were to happen, parents might not be able to see their children anymore.

She fell silent, frowning as she wondered what to do.

When Mother Ye saw Ye Xi's embarrassment, she suddenly felt that she was asking too much, so she quickly said:

"In fact, we have watched it many times, so it doesn't matter if we don't watch it now."

Ye Xi turned to look at Ye's mother. Seeing her disappointed face, she couldn't bear it and comforted her:

"I will go see the master tomorrow. I will tell him about it then. Please wait for the news."

When Ye's mother heard this, she was so happy that she nodded in agreement and went to find Ye's father.

After Ye Xi finished her breakfast without any taste, she suddenly remembered that she should go to the store to have a look. Otherwise, starting tomorrow, Wei Jue would probably have to keep her in the office for half a day again.

Without further ado, thinking about making some money, Ye Xi went out after eating and went to the store with Jin Ling and Hong Xiu.

When they arrived at the store, Ye Xi couldn't help but look towards Sha Luo Pavilion when she got off the carriage. She wanted to see if Pei Zhu was there and if he was okay.

But she didn't see anyone, and she hesitated whether to go over and ask.

She looked around and saw those people who were looking at her intentionally or unintentionally, and suddenly she thought, forget it.

She didn't know if any of those people looking at her were Wei Jue's spies. It would be better not to cause trouble for Pei Zhu. If she wanted to know, she could just go back and ask her brother.

She stepped into Xinwei Restaurant, called Qin Song over, and told her about the situation in the southwest.

She believes that not all big cities in the southwest are unable to expand stores.

Huzhou City is definitely not an option, and after Wei Jue widely promoted the new crops there, they probably wouldn’t be too interested in the delicacies made from the new crops.

The most important thing is that the place is so poor that even food and clothing are a problem, so how can people go to a restaurant there?

Fuzhou City is okay. The living standards of the people there are pretty good, and they don’t have to consider planting new crops nearby. They can just go to Huzhou City to harvest them.

Ye Xi heard from Wei Jue that in all the areas of the Great Zhou that were hit by severe drought, a policy of tax exemption or reduction would be adopted in the next three years based on the severity of the drought, to allow the locals to recuperate.

In this way, as long as the local people can grow something, they can not only keep it all, but also trade part of it in exchange for a certain amount of silver.

She told Qin Song to go to the southwest in the future to see which big cities could open branches, and at the same time pay attention to the planting of new crops in Huzhou City.

If the results are good, you can also consider bringing some daily necessities there and purchasing new crops from the local people first.

Then sell the daily necessities to them, and after two rounds of transactions, the money is back in their hands.

Qin Song felt that Ye Xi was too thoughtful, but he was worried that there would be local protection over there, and whether they would offend local businessmen by doing this.

Ye Xi disagreed and asked Qin Song to observe all the etiquettes, giving money when necessary and gifts when necessary.

If all the courtesy has been met and the other party is still embarrassed, pull Wei Jue out to block it.
