"How about this: instead of packing it in boxes, wrap it in oilcloth. This will save space and fit it in the carriage."
"Okay, ma'am, I'll do it right away." The clerk agreed and ran away.
The fine cloth is light and soft. Although it is not as gorgeous as silk, it is soft and close to the skin and is the most comfortable to wear.
The people of Mobei wore woolen fabrics, which were warm but very rough. Once someone tried a close-fitting lining made of this fine cloth, they felt like they had found a treasure. When she was a middleman, she made a fortune from this one business alone.
Silk and satin are expensive and are mainly supplied to the upper class nobles in Mobei.
Fine cloth and hemp are affordable and most people can afford them, so the market is larger.
The other shops selling general merchandise were even more comprehensive, with everything you could imagine.
Business opportunities abounded in Mobei. She also wanted to make a splash, and once the Xie family's shop opened in the Mobei royal court, she wanted it to be known to everyone.
"Madam, our goods are tied up so tightly and packed so compactly. If they need to be opened for inspection on the way, it will not only be troublesome but also difficult to load them back." A shopkeeper looked at the guys loading the truck and couldn't help feeling worried. He couldn't help but offer some advice.
Xie Wanyun smiled slightly. "It's okay, let's do it this way."
Yan Suizhi had already signed a document exempting her from unpacking and inspection. Xie's trading company's goods would have smooth sailing all the way to the Mobei royal court.
Li Fengmian had been standing nearby watching, and suddenly felt very envious of Xie Wanyun.
He was calm, well-organized and confident. He coordinated and arranged such a big thing with so many people and goods in an orderly manner, and directed so many people to do things calmly and calmly.
Everyone treated her with respect from the bottom of their hearts.
But she could only boss the maids and servants around at home.
The level of the rank is immediately apparent.
But she refused to accept the result. She believed that in terms of family background, appearance and talent, she was not inferior to Xie Wanyun. However, she had been compared to him when she was a child, and it was even more so now.
Everyone in the capital city knew Xie Wanyun, but only the circle of noble ladies knew her, Li Fengmian.
Xie Wanyun turned around and glanced at her, as if to say, "Hey, why haven't you left yet?"
Li Fengmian felt upset, but she would never admit defeat.
He forced a laugh. "Madam Xie is truly generous. She's already rushing off to Mobei like this?"
Xie Wanyun glanced at her as if she were an idiot, "What else?"
"Aren't you afraid of an accident on the road? What if you run into robbers or something... well, hehe."
Li Fengmian said this with some malice.
Xie Wanyun was speechless. Isn't this a bit too childish?
"I didn't expect the princess to care about me so much. I thank you in advance. However, there is no need for you to worry about me. The world is peaceful now, and the people live a prosperous life. Where are the bandits? Trade is unimpeded and trade routes are becoming more and more frequent. By saying this, does the princess doubt that this peaceful and prosperous era is fake?"
Xie Wanyun spoke slowly, but there was a coldness in his eyes.
Li Fengmian shuddered and broke out in a cold sweat.
What happened today? Xie Wanyun was always finding fault with me.
But how can I be willing to admit defeat just like that?
"There's naturally peace within our territory, but aren't you heading to Mobei? Once you leave Blue Moon Pass, there's no guarantee of peace along the way."
Xie Wanyun sneered, "Your Highness, what you said is even more absurd. Everyone knows that Mobei and our dynasty have friendly relations. We share what we have and what we need, and we are truly like brotherly nations. Yet, Your Highness is saying that my caravan will be robbed in Mobei. What should I say to you? Should I report your concerns to the court so they can take precautions? Or should I commend you for your loyalty and concern for the country and its people?"
In fact, Xie Wanyun paid a large sum of money to hire an escort agency to escort him. After all, the mountains were high and the roads were long, and the environment was harsh. Even though the Mobei officials had reconciled with the court, there was no guarantee that there would be no bandits among the people.
More manpower is always a good thing. Of course, she was too lazy to explain this to Li Fengmian.
Li Fengmian finally gave in. Xie Wanyun's sharp words and merciless attack left her completely defeated.
In terms of eloquence, knowledge, bearing, and pattern, she is no match for Xie Wanyun.
That's why she beat him so hard that he had no chance to fight back.
