Chapter 575 - Business Elites
The spies were all petrified when they saw Lin Mengya twinkling at them. Just now, Princess Yu was smiling at them, wasn’t she?
Could it be that they had already been noticed?
“Your Highness, did you see that there was a cute little rabbit by the road we passed?”
Princess Yu suddenly spoke while pointing with her slender fingers at somewhere in the forest.
Turning in the direction that his wife was pointing, Prince Yu showed a light smile on his face.
“Well, if you like it, I’ll catch it for you.”
Princess Yu shook her head. She held the prince’s hand and walked forward.
“Don’t bother. It’s a rabbit, and it should live in the wild.”
Whew—
All the spies were relieved. Fortunately, they were not discovered.
However, the next second, Lin Mengya revealed a sly smile.
In fact, the way they had vanished was very simple. They just kept one person in the carriage and tried to get rid of the traces behind them.
In addition, they suddenly sped up and rushed forward for quite a distance before they found a place to hide.
Therefore, those tailing them would feel a little surprised if they could not find the carriage when they entered the woods.
They thought that they had covered themselves so well that no one could discover.
In fact, Long Tianyu had arranged everything. At this time, Long Tianyu was the hunter and those tailing them were the prey.
“It seems that there are quite a few people tailing us. However, I guess they don’t have the time and energy to keep an eye on my teacher and the others anymore.”
After being tangled up by Long Tianyu’s deliberate arrangement, those spies became too exhausted to follow.
They had tried their best to chase Long Tianyu. They were so exhausted that they were unable to investigate the whereabouts of their teacher.
What’s more, Baishao and the others must have given the teacher a perfect disguise.
No one would figure out that Baili Rui, the Saint of Poison, who had been missing for more than 10 years, would hide in a small carriage heading to Yunzhou.
Moreover, Lin Mengya had prepared more surprises.
The question now was whether the people sent by the Empress could make it through.
The route that Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu took to trick the spies was more like a travel route.
Later, they arrived at a courier station on the side of the road to spend the night.
The two lanterns at the entrance of the courier station were particularly eye-catching in the dark night.
Everything in the courier station was very shabby. Fortunately, Long Tianyu was well prepared. After they finished the meal, Lin Mengya rested in the best room.
As for Long Tianyu, he was going to lay out the action tomorrow to his men.
Lin Mengya did not fall asleep. Instead, she was enjoying tea on a chair in the room.
The tea was not good tea. It was just the most common tea, jasmine tea, in the courier station.
The teacup was also austere, which could not be compared with that of Prince Yu’s Mansion. However, on the table opposite Lin Mengya, there was a cup of tea that had been prepared.
It was getting dark. Was there anyone who would come to visit her?
“We haven’t seen each other for such a long time. How are you doing, Hall Master?”
A beautiful figure suddenly appeared in front of Lin Mengya. She picked up the teacup with her jade-like fingers.
“Not bad. Thank you for your hard work to take care of the teacher and deal with the affairs of Sanjue Hall.”
Lin Mengya smiled gently. She put down the teacup and looked at her subordinates, as well as her master’s wife, Yunzhu, the deputy Hall Master of Sanjue Hall.
She was dressed in a tight black suit, which outlined her curvy figure.
She was a first-class beauty. Now that she removed her mask, she looked even more attractive.
The woman had a charming face, with no trace of aging but a delicate peony pattern on her cheek.
The flower looked conspicuous and vivid, making Yunzhu look more mysterious and charming.
“You’re welcome. No matter what, you are my benefactor. Besides, thanks to you, he and I don’t have to hold a secret regret all our life. There are some things that I didn’t understand until now. In the past, I was too young and I trusted an unworthy man.”
Yunzhu spoke with emotion. Once upon a time, she and Baili Rui were the perfect couple.
But fate was inconstant. They had been so in love with each other, yet they became what they were now.
“It’s not too late yet. By the way, there has been turbulence in the Nation of Lintian recently. It’s also a good opportunity for us. If you are available, you can keep an eye on it. You can rest assured that the teacher will be with me.”
Lin Mengya absolutely knew Yunzhu’s concern. She was worried that Baili Rui would suffer, so she had to remind her.
“Well, I know. The situation in the Nation of Lintian has been reversed, but it is very good for us. Many rich merchants have worked together to block the business of the Nation of Lintian before. Now, there is finally a turning point. Sanjue Hall has a good foundation as well as the protection of the royal family. So, it will be able to make some contributions soon.”
historical
When speaking of Sanjue Hall, Yunzhu became excited and her eyes lit up.
Lin Mengya was not egotistical. When she hired Yunzhu, she had announced that she would give 20% of Sanjue Hall’s net profits to Yunzhu.
And as for the other 80%, Lin Mengya would not monopolize.
Therefore, the better Sanjue Hall developed, the more benefits Yunzhu could get.
That was net profit, which would make Yunzhu follow her wholeheartedly.
“I think it’s better to go steadily and surely. By the way, I sent you a message a few days ago. Did you see it?”
Lin Mengya felt that although the Nation of Lintian was in chaos, it did not mean that the local foundation would be completely destroyed.
If Sanjue Hall was going to seize the business resources of the Nation of Lintian in a high-profile way, it might be counterproductive.
It was better to keep quiet, and then slowly cut off the interests of all parties.
Only in this way would it not arouse their attention and backlash.
After hearing Lin Mengya’s words, Yunzhu immediately understood what she meant.
She nodded, took out a few pieces of paper, and put them in front of Lin Mengya.
“These are the business talents that I found according to your orders. Everything about their lives is here and it is very specific, but...”
Yunzhu pointed at one of the names with curiousness in her eyes.
“The others are all wealthy businessmen. Only this person is a commoner, who makes his living by collecting firewood. I don’t know how this kind of person was selected.”
Lin Mengya took over Yunzhu’s paper and skimmed through it.
In the end, she fixed her eyes on the farmer who collected firewood.
According to the information, this man went up the mountain to collect firewood for one hour and then sold it at the market every day.
Moreover, this person was very weird. His firewood was always better than others’.
Therefore, every time he took the firewood over, it would be sold off.
But this person only collected a little firewood each time. He brought neither more nor less than that.
It was just one load of firewood, so there were often people who came to offer him more for it.
But the man was also stubborn. No matter how much the others offered, he only sold it to the buyer he agreed to.
Therefore, this person had a very good reputation. Relying on selling firewood, he earned a few acres of land for himself.
After Lin Mengya finished reading everyone’s information, she finally took out the paper of the little farmer. Yunzhu looked at Lin Mengya and did not understand what she meant.
Pointing at the paper, Lin Mengya finally explained, “This person is very smart. First of all, unlike other people, he doesn’t pick up all the firewood he finds. He only chooses firewood from the mountain in the same amount of time every day, which means that he holds a certain standard for his products. Second, others can only sell firewood at an ordinary price. What about him? The people who buy wood from him are all from rich families. Therefore, he has a very clear niche of customers who buy his products. Third, he has a good eye and knows how to maintain long-term interests. Therefore, he never goes back on his word. No matter how high the price is, he will sell it to who he made the deal with. So, even if someone cannot have it, they will not hate him.”
Yunzhu didn’t fully understand Lin Mengya’s words, but she was so smart that she soon figured out what she was talking about.
“Actually, the so-called business is very simple. If someone wants to buy it, we can sell it. However, this kind of purchase market is very passive for us. But look at this person. He can decide what to sell and how to sell his product. At that point, the customer is led by him. No matter what kind of business he does, he will only make a profit from it.”
Yunzhu gradually understood what Lin Mengya meant.
There were so many theories about a bundle of firewood. It seemed that this person was really not simple.
“The most important thing is that this person clearly has a business mind and capital, but why he is willing to stay in a small village? Have you ever thought about this?”
Lin Mengya put down the information with a smile. At this moment, she had completely targeted her business genius.
Yunzhu also understood that Lin Mengya selected talents from various angles.
She looked at Lin Mengya with an enlightened look. That was how Lin Mengya planned.
“I see. Compared with being rich, this man likes this kind of casual life more. Besides, he knows what he wants. He is a person who is capable, but not greedy. If such a person runs the business, he will not put Sanjue Hall in danger due to his personal interests. Am I right?”
Lin Mengya nodded with satisfaction. Yunzhu packed up the paper and promised Lin Mengya that she would definitely invite this person to take charge of the business of Sanjue Hall.
To be honest, Yunzhu was a top social genius.
However, in terms of business planning, she was not that capable.
“Well, go ahead and be careful.”
Lin Mengya checked on the time and realized that Long Tianyu should be back soon.
Yunzhu nodded at her and then disappeared into the night like a light butterfly.
If this person was as good as the one described in the information, it would be very interesting.
She was eager to know what Sanjue Hall would become under the leadership of this group of capable people.
She was already looking forward to it!
