A blush appeared on Yan Suizhi's pale face.
"Mianmei, I..."
He hesitated and stopped talking.
Xie Wanyun glanced at him with disdain. "Master Yan seems to have a bad memory. I've already told you that this name is not for you to call. If you can't remember it, there's no need for us to meet again."
A trace of embarrassment appeared in Yan Suizhi's eyes.
"Okay, I'll remember that. I know that in the capital, you're the only merchant who can offer fire-proof cloth. Although this business is difficult, the profits are high. Fire-proof cloth is more valuable than gold. One foot of fire-proof cloth you sell is equivalent to ten rolls of silk. Madam Xie is a smart woman, so she'll naturally understand whether this business is worth doing or not."
Xie Wanyun smiled, "Master Yan is absolutely right! Business is business, how can we not do a business with such huge profits? How much do you want? I will purchase it as soon as possible."
She has been cooperating with merchants from the Western Regions for many years, and they already have goods, so this business trip is not difficult for her.
"Master Yan, I'm really grateful that you still thought of me and introduced me to some business."
Yan Suizhi smiled faintly, a smile as bright as the cold moon.
He cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Madam, for your courtesy. This batch of goods is temporarily ordered at 100 pieces. If you need it in the future, please place an order again."
He gestured to his attendant to take a stack of silver bills. He presented them with both hands, "Madam Xie, this is a deposit of 10,000 taels of silver. Please accept it. I will pay the full amount after we receive the goods."
Xie Wanyun accepted it and nodded slightly. "Master Yan, please rest assured."
Yan Suizhi turned and walked out.
"Lord Yan! Please wait a moment!" Xie Wanyun suddenly shouted.
Yan Suizhi suddenly stopped his foot as he was about to step out of the room.
"Lord Yan, how is Jin Bai? I haven't seen him for a while."
"Madam, you care about him so much. I would like to thank you on behalf of Jinbai. This child is naughty. Since the day he was released from house arrest, he has been outside all the time..." Yan Suizhi shook his head, with a hint of doting in his helplessness.
Xie Wanyun couldn't help but be moved. No matter what this man did, he truly loved Jin Bai.
Just hope Jinbai doesn't get influenced by him.
After seeing Yan Suizhi off, Xie Wanyun immediately went to meet the leader of the merchants from the Western Regions and expressed his intention to purchase fire-resistant cloth.
The chieftain's name was Su Ge'er, and he had been traveling between the Western Regions and the Central Plains for many years, doing business there. He was a man of integrity and honesty, and merchants from the Western Regions often sought his advice and made decisions.
Su Ge'er listened carefully to her purpose and felt a little embarrassed. After all, the fire-proof cloth had not been traded on the market for a long time, and it was difficult to purchase a hundred pieces at once.
Xie Wanyun smiled and said, "I know this might be difficult for others, but it's not a big deal for you."
Su Gele laughed heartily! Patting his chest, he said, "Madam Xie, please rest assured. One hundred rolls of fire-proof cloth will be delivered before the New Year at the latest."
Xie Wanyun breathed a sigh of relief.
After coming out of Sugle's shop, seeing that it was getting late, he prepared to go home first.
There were many pedestrians and vendors on the street, and the carriage could not move fast, so Xie Wanyun asked the coachman to go through the side alley.
As soon as I drove in, I saw a few children running and playing in the alley ahead. I thought it was really unfortunate. I was afraid that the carriage would hit the children, and was hesitating whether to go back.
But I saw a familiar figure among the group of children.
"Jinbai!" Xie Wanyun lifted the car curtain and shouted at the group of children.
As the carriage got closer, she realized they were a group of little beggars, all unkempt, ragged, and filthy.
Jinbai is such a troublesome kid! How did he end up hanging out with this little beggar?
When Jin Bai heard her shout, he turned around and saw that it was Aunt Xie. He was immediately beaming with joy. He hurried over and shouted, "Aunt Xie! Why are you here?"
Xie Wanyun looked at Jin Bai carefully.
Although the child's clothes were neatly dressed, they were dirty and covered with stains.
The white fox's scarf had turned gray, and its cloak was covered in slush, its color no longer discernible. Despite the cold weather, its face was streaked with white and black sweat. Its hair crown was askew, and some of its hair had fallen loose, draping over its shoulders.
He looked like a little beggar leader, grinning at her.
