Since Lin Yuxin partnered with him, the clothes made from Lin Yuxin's patterns have become very popular, boosting his business. Later, even though Lin Yuxin was far away in Jibei City, she would write to him to discuss how to operate the business, organize events, and do marketing.
He suddenly realized that he, the richest man in Xia Kingdom, was not as smart as a single girl. Her ideas were so novel that he had never seen them before, and he learned a lot from them.
"Uncle Jin, these are the blueprints I've drawn up recently. We can hold an event before the New Year!"
At this moment, Lin Yuxin took out a stack of blueprints and handed them to Uncle Jin, and explained her ideas.
"Before the New Year? You mean...?"
Uncle Jin immediately realized what was happening, and his eyes lit up!
“That’s right. The New Year is just around the corner, and many households will be preparing for it. Wearing nice clothes for the New Year is a matter of prestige. Once you have a good reputation, you won’t have to worry about not having customers.”
Lin Yuxin nodded and smiled as she analyzed the situation for Uncle Jin.
"Haha! That's a great idea! We can make a fortune before the New Year!"
Uncle Jin was delighted. He had been trying to figure out how to improve his business, but Yuxin's method was much more direct.
Moreover, he discovered that Lin Yuxin had a lot of new ideas in her mind. Whenever he encountered a problem he couldn't figure out, he would ask her, and she would always be able to solve it.
"But what should we do about this event?"
Uncle Jin hesitated. These kinds of events usually involve discounts and selling things at a lower price. He didn't know what kind of event Yuxin was talking about!
"Hehe! Uncle Jin, come on, let's discuss this!"
So Lin Yuxin chatted with Uncle Jin for the whole afternoon, and when she left, Uncle Jin saw her off with a smile.
The two discussed it and decided to hold the event on January 1st.
After Lin Yuxin left, Uncle Jin started working on the event, but there were only ten days or so left, so time was a bit tight.
After leaving, Lin Yuxin didn't want to go back to settle accounts so soon. After thinking about it, she decided to stay outside a little longer. So she found a teahouse, drank tea, and listened to storytelling.
Lin Yuxin then went to Yongfu Teahouse, a very famous teahouse in Beijing. It was said that the owner had powerful connections, and no one dared to cause trouble for the teahouse in the seven or eight years it had been open.
As soon as Lin Yuxin entered, a waiter came over to greet her with a warm smile:
"How many guests would you like to sit in the main hall or a private room?"
"Gentlemen, please have a seat in the lobby!"
Lin Yuxin said calmly.
"Alright! Please, sir!"
The waiter gestured for Lin Yuxin to enter and led her to the main hall.
Lin Yuxin was surprised; the service at Yongfu Teahouse was a pleasant surprise! She also became a little curious about the owner!
Lin Yuxin and Xiaodie followed the waiter to a nice spot, sat down, ordered two cups of tea and some food, and began to listen attentively to the storyteller.
As I listened, something felt off. Wasn't this the incident of the Crown Prince's coup attempt a while back? How did it get out of the public eye? Why didn't the Emperor do anything about it?
On the stage, an elderly man was recounting the events of a few days prior when the crown prince forced the emperor to abdicate. He spoke vividly, though with some embellishment.
The audience listened with great interest, and Lin Yuxin remained silent, sitting and listening for a while.
"The Crown Prince and Xiao Guojiu's rebellion failed. Besides the Regent, the biggest contributor was a mysterious army. This army was small in number but very mysterious. No one knew when the army was established or whose people they were working for."
"This team only has about two hundred people. It is said that this army comes and goes without a trace. When they appear, they are so imposing that they immediately stunned all the rebels present."
"Some were so frightened that they dropped their swords. They also had a set of principles when fighting: they never killed anyone, only used their fists to attack, yet no one could hurt them."
"It is our good fortune that the Xia Kingdom has such an army!"
The old man got excited as he spoke, and his words stirred the passion of the audience.
"Really? When did our Xia Kingdom have such an army?? It can't be fake, can it?"
"A storyteller? How could it be true? If it were true, why would the Qi Kingdom keep trying to provoke us every few days? And why would they keep poisoning the border in the north?"
"If what you're saying is true, then we're not afraid of them anymore! We'll beat whoever comes at us until they submit!"
"Oh, let's not talk about that far ahead. War is a waste of resources and manpower. Let's just live our lives peacefully. As for war, let's hope it doesn't break out. After all, it's always the ordinary people who suffer in war."
The people below the stage were all talking about it. Lin Yuxin sat there, calmly picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip to cover up her embarrassment.
She didn't know who spread the news about the special forces, but since it had already spread, she wasn't afraid. It was just that the news was too fantastical.
What do you mean by appearing and disappearing without a trace? This is making special forces sound like ghosts and gods, it's such an exaggeration.
Lin Yuxin noticed that several audience members around her looked off, and when they heard about the mysterious army, their disdain and contempt were quite obvious.
Lin Yuxin observed them carefully for a while and found that although they were poorly dressed, they all had some martial arts skills. Lin Yuxin raised her eyebrows. These foreign spies hadn't been dealt with yet.
It seems she needs to ask Li Xiaochen about the specifics. She plans to take some time to go to the palace for a training exercise with the Emperor's army, a good opportunity to spar and receive special training.
Lin Yuxin calmly picked up a cup of tea and took a sip, when she heard a voice from the next table:
"Alas, have you heard? The Emperor has found the Ninth Prince."
