Chapter 160 - 0: Business Plan
When the eight shops were drawn on the paper, they were able to see the peculiarity. They formed a square and surrounded the bustling streets of the capital, except for Chu Tao’s gaze that was looking at the empty space at the southwest corner.
Su Yan saw that Chu Tao had noticed it and a trace of admiration flashed across her eyes. “That’s right. This is the address of the ninth shop. In this way, the entire capital’s economy will be in the hands of our Su family.”
Chu Tao still did not quite understand, but she could sense that this was a very impressive matter.
Su Yan said, “Get someone to look at all the shops in the southwest corner and organize the information for me to see.”
Chu Tao nodded and went out to prepare.
Su Yan said again, “Bring me my dowry list, let me have a look.”
Chu Tao nodded.
At night, Su Yan went to bed before she could wait for Gu Ruoyun.
She still had important matters to attend to the next day.
Chu Tao saw that Su Yan had woken up early and helped her wash up. She then passed the information she had collected the day before to Su Yan.
Su Yan flipped through the paper that detailed the information of all the shops in the southwest corner. She raised her brows and asked, “Who made this information?”
Chu Tao said, “It’s An Er.”
Su Yan nodded. It was that man with a big smile but evil intention. No wonder it was so detailed.
After looking through all the information about the shops, Su Yan picked out three pieces and put them aside.
Then, she said, “Bring me the dowry list that I asked you to find yesterday.”
Chu Tao, who had already prepared it, immediately handed it to Su Yan. Su Yan took out the dowry list and put it down after a few glances.
After finishing their breakfast, the two of them left.
They headed straight to the southwest corner and carefully checked the three shops they had just picked out.
One was an inn, one was a wine workshop, and one was a steamed bun shop.
The shop with the best geographical location was the inn, but this shop was not going to be transferred.
Su Yan took the second best option and went to the wine workshop. She was not very satisfied.
The steamed bun shop wanted to be transferred, but the layout of the shop was not very suitable.
She walked around in disappointment and saw a jewelry shop in the blink of an eye. This jewelry shop was two stories high and was decorated luxuriously. However, there were not many customers in front of the door. Even the servants standing guard at the door were sleepy.
The location of this shop was better than that of the inn, but why didn’t she see any information about this shop? If there was, she would not have missed it.
Feeling a little strange, Su Yan directly walked in and woke them up. They were not in high spirits as they welcomed Su Yan in.
After entering, there was a row of cabinets with all kinds of jewelry on them. The style looked pretty good, but the strange thing was that there were very few customers.
The one who welcomed them was a beautiful woman in her thirties.
She was dressed in red muslin clothes and held a black fan in her hand. As she walked, she swayed gracefully, looking enchanting and charming.
Su Yan seemed to know the reason. No one would want to come to a shopkeeper like this. She would feel inferior if she saw him, and she would not come with her husband either. She was afraid that the man’s soul would be stolen away.

Liu Meiniang glanced at Su Yan and said, “Little sister, what do you want to see?”
This posture was very disrespectful, but it looked very harmonious on her body as if she was supposed to be like this.
Her voice was even more decadent.
Su Yan smiled and said, “Sister, I’m not here to buy things.”
Liu Meiniang’s expression changed, and she lazily leaned on the cabinet as if she had no bones. She asked with interest, “Then what is sister here for?”
Su Yan also took a step forward and said, “I have some business to discuss with sister. May I have a word with you?”
Liu Meiniang smiled tenderly and said, “I will naturally follow the orders of Princess Consort Guang Pingwang.”
Su Yan was not surprised that she was recognized.
She was even more curious about the woman in front of her. She was definitely not as simple as a jewelry store owner.
