After sending Nanny Yu away, Shen Jia began to think about how he needed to sort out all the affairs in the northern border within just three months.

The most important thing is that she needs to find a backer who is stronger than the third prince. Based on her current experience, the most suitable person is the fifth prince Zhao Yuanyou.

This person was the one who came to the Glazed Pavilion to buy Glazed Coral last time, and she was also good friends with Yan Xu. After getting along with him for a few years, she also clearly realized that Yan Xu was loved by the people of the Northern Territory for a reason, and it was because of his good character.

As for the prince who can get along well with him, there probably won’t be too many problems.

After making up his mind, Shen Jia immediately took action and laid out his plan in full at the year-end meeting.

"Right now, I need to go to Shengjing for a while. Besides personal matters, the most important thing is to try to establish our Shen family's brand in Shengjing."

"The boss is wise."

The truth is that the Shen family has already taken deep roots in the northern border over the years, and it is difficult to make any new breakthroughs, or it can be said that the goods produced by the Shen family have reached their upper limit.

If you want to continue expanding, opening up new battlefields is imperative. Shengjing, the most prosperous city in the Great Sheng Dynasty, is naturally a good place to go.

Other famous merchants almost all have their own shops in Shengjing. If they hadn't thought that Shen Jia was unwilling to leave the northern border, some of them would have proposed this idea a long time ago.

"So, I need to allocate some personnel to go to Shengjing with me. I only need people from the Zhenwei Pavilion, the Caravan, the Liuli Pavilion, and the Tofu Workshop. The people from the Coal Shop are not suitable to be in Shengjing for the time being.

"Go back and let everyone know. Those who have ideas will be told first. For now, we only need staff to open one shop, so please select carefully. The rest is about future work. You still need to prepare the quarterly reports and send them directly to Shengjing. The northern border is left to you!"

Having said that, Shen Jia stood up and bowed deeply to express his gratitude to the Shen family managers who had accompanied him in his growth.

When everyone saw this, they felt a warm feeling in their hearts. They had such a good boss, which was why they had the life they had today. Moreover, the boss was the county lady, so how could he bow to them?

Everyone quickly stood up, bowed in Shen Jia's direction, and said in unison: "We will definitely live up to the trust of our boss!"

This year was not peaceful for the Shen family. Everyone knew that Shen Jia was going to leave temporarily.

Everyone was at ease with the presence of this Shen family's leader, but now that she has suddenly left, everyone is a little at a loss. For most people in the northern border, Shengjing is still a distant and unreachable place.

Once you leave, you don’t know when you will see each other again in the future.

At the same time, the selection activities began in full swing. Some people also hoped to go to the most prosperous capital, Shengjing, to experience the beautiful scenery of the Great Sheng Dynasty.

In order to ensure the stability of the shops, Shen Jia wrote development plans for each shop over the past few days, hoping that the northern border would not be affected after he left.

The most difficult thing should be saying goodbye to the Shen family, especially my grandparents who live in Ning'an Town, Linyuan County. They are already very old, and I don't know if there will be a chance to see them again after this separation.

But it was impossible to leave without telling the two of them, so Shen Jia once again stepped into his grandfather Shen Yan's study.

Shen Yan looked at this granddaughter who made him proud. Her outstandingness was particularly outstanding in the entire Shen family, and even overshadowed Shen Ci's edge in his heart. However, he still wanted to know clearly about Shen Jia's trip to Shengjing, as the dangers there might be difficult for ordinary people to withstand.

"Have you thought it through?"

"Grandfather, your granddaughter has already thought it through. Since you can't avoid it, why not face it head-on?"

"The dangers of the succession struggle are beyond your imagination. The Crown Prince was deposed, and the major events in the government and the country have long since died down. Grandfather simply wanted to comfort you. Put your own safety first."

"My granddaughter understands that this trip is mainly for the development of the Shen family. As long as others don't provoke me, nothing will happen."

After understanding Shen Jia's meaning, Shen Yan felt that there was no point in persuading him any further, so he closed his eyes and opened them again.

"In that case, Grandfather has nothing more to say. You should go see your grandmother."

After saying these words, Shen Yan seemed to be deflated and no longer met Shen Jia's eyes.

Shen Jia also knew that her decision could not be changed, not to mention that even if she did nothing, she would still be doomed. If she had not been a step ahead when she traveled through time, she would have been reduced to dust by now.

It was impossible for her to skip this muddy water, and for the sake of her own goal, she must not fail.

After bidding farewell to her grandfather Shen Yan, Shen Jia stayed in Ning'an Town for a while. Because of her arrival, the Shen Mansion became lively for a while.

In particular, Shen Yue and Shen Min, who were in charge of Hongmeng Academy, often asked her about her future development plans. After all, there were students graduating every year, and their future destinations were definitely a big problem.

Shen Jia went to Shengjing this time to solve this problem. Seeing the men in her workshop school taking the imperial examinations one by one, she also wanted to do something for the students of Hongmeng Academy.

Seeing that there was not much time left until the time agreed with Nanny Yu, Shen Jia returned to Hezhou as agreed.

When returning to Shengjing this time, Shen Jia originally did not intend to take Fuqiu with her, because she left Chen Yuan here, so naturally she had no intention of letting Fuqiu leave with her.

However, in the face of Fuqiu's request, she still agreed, so on the carriage to Shengjing, there were not only Shen Jia, but also Fuqiu, Xu Zhao and Lin Yuehu.

In a dangerous place like Shengjing today, the presence of female guards is very necessary, so she resolutely decided to bring the two of them with her.

Faced with the possibility of going to the capital of their fantasies, Xu Zhao and Lin Yuehu were naturally willing to do so.

As for Anyun's family, they continued to work at Shen's and train more talents for her.

Yu Ma Ma stood beside Shen Jia's carriage and reminded him, "Madam has sent letters to the eldest lady from Shengjing in the past few months, but I have never had the chance to give them to the county lady. Now I hope the county lady will accept them."

Shen Jia originally thought he could leave immediately, but he never expected this to happen.

With one hand, he opened the curtain beside him and looked down at Yu Ma from the carriage. His face was calm and he replied:

"Bring it here."

Seeing the letter being held by a pair of delicate hands, Nanny Yu let go of her hands and got on the carriage behind.

This time, the guards brought by Changle Houfu were responsible for the safety of the entire team. When they saw everyone boarded the carriage, they immediately shouted, "Let's go!"

The wheels rolled slowly, making a creaking sound as they pressed against the gravel road. Shen Jia looked at the five letters in his hand and felt ridiculous.

Fuqiu knew all of this, so she was a little worried about Shen Jia's condition and asked anxiously, "Jia Niang, are you okay?"
