Gu Qian glanced at the passing crowd, but his gaze finally settled on Qiu Yan.
He thought to himself, "No girl from the Western Regions can compare to my wife."
Also, his son, at such a young age, likes to look at pretty girls. I need to correct him.
"Mother, what are they saying? I can't understand a word they're saying!" Gu Xiaoran asked incessantly.
Qiu Yan: "This is their own language, even my mother can't understand it."
"Oh." Gu Xiaoran thought of Vera and Ap, who also couldn't understand what she was saying.
"Mom, there's barbecue everywhere here, the food is really good." Gu Xiaoran patted her thin belly.
Since I lost weight, it's been so hard to gain any more.
The reason was that his mother made him practice his moves diligently every morning, and she didn't even miss this trip to the Western Regions. He was suffering in silence.
Gu Qianyi sniffed the aroma of the roasted meat; it was quite tempting.
"Mother, I'm hungry."
"Mother..."
Gu Xiaoran spoke a string of words, one after another.
Finally, his mouth was dry from talking, but Qiu Yan stopped him with a cup of milk tea and a few skewers of grilled meat.
Not to mention Gu Xiaoran, even Gu Qian, and the two figures behind him, found it all quite novel.
And Gu Xiaoran's lightning skills were also impressive along the way.
Qiu Yan thought that since she was already here, she should find a place to stay.
He then led the group back to the inn where he and Qin Susu had stayed.
After traveling for many days, they were finally able to get a good night's sleep.
That night, Gu Qian wanted to hold his young mistress while sleeping.
However, the little brat who cut in the middle prevented him from doing anything.
This has been the same every day along the way.
Left with no other option, he went to another guest room alone.
He thought that from now on, when he went out with his wife again, he would never bring Xiao Ran along.
After one night,
Having finally made the trip, Qiu Yan took Gu Qian, Gu Xiaoran, and his lightning bolt to stroll through the market.
This time, Qiu Yan did not go directly to meet Lu Shiwang, but instead inquired about the business situation in the area from Jiang Nian'er and her husband.
Through the introduction of Jiang Nian'er and her husband, Qiu Yan got to know many local businessmen.
She then began to talk about the local jade business, fur business, and fruit business.
Fruit doesn't keep well, so can't they be made into ice?
Refrigeration is still a good option; you should still be able to find nitrates there.
Gu Qian and Gu Xiaoran listened to the whole thing.
They couldn't get a word in edgewise. The two men, one big and one small, were guarding Qiu Yan alone, frequently visiting local vendors, and doing this every day with great enthusiasm.
After finishing everything, Qiu Yan and Gu Qian finally headed to the Lu Shi Palace.
When King Lu met Qiu Yan and her family of three, he naturally gave them a warm welcome.
Their envoys who went to the Western Regions to escort the bride have long since returned, and thus, the two countries are now friendly nations.
In recent years, even Huyan Xun has disappeared, which made King Lu feel more relaxed than ever before.
When it comes to doing business, King Lu was a ruler, not a businessman, and had no connections.
However, the envoy who returned from the Central Plains said that the silk from the Central Plains was comfortable and beautiful to wear, so he also talked to Qiu Yan about the silk business.
As a ruler, one naturally needs to expand the national treasury.
Qiu Yan and Lu Shiwang hit it off immediately. Silk? Second Sister-in-law has connections, doesn't she?
These business dealings with the Western Regions made Qiu Yan feel that she was destined to become the richest woman in Dongjin.
Uh...that's a story for another time.
...
When they went, there were only two horses and one carriage.
On the return trip, there were three horse-drawn carriages.
Xuanming and Xuanying each drove a carriage; the original bodyguards were actually turned into porters by Qiu Yan.
They wondered what kind of expression His Majesty would have if he saw them looking like this.
