Chen Yulan acted arrogantly and domineeringly in the Marquis's mansion.
Because Lu Yanke was bringing back more and more money.
It has to be said that money can solve many problems.
Qiao Xuerou is now living a very comfortable life in the Marquis's mansion.
She's the epitome of "a mother's status rises with her son's," she's a true winner in life.
Lu Yanke has not married a wife yet, and now only Qiao Xuerou is in his harem.
She was living a very comfortable life.
Her son was raised by her side.
Although she never had a formal title, as the only eldest grandson of the Marquis of Pingyang, she naturally received a lot of care, which also increased Qiao Xuerou's value.
In the Marquis's residence, the servants treated her with the same respect as the heir apparent's principal wife.
Qiao Xuerou lived a more comfortable life than other wives.
However, what they didn't know was that their moment of retribution was about to arrive.

A group of large clients came to the Silent Building and needed a large quantity of salt.
Lu Yanke always finds various excuses to return to the capital.
First, he wanted to be intimate with Qiao Xuerou; second, he wanted to manage the servants in the shop.
He happens to be in the shop today.
The main business of the Silent Building is not alcohol, but salt.
For some reason, the distillery's business has been increasing day by day lately.

Selling contraband salt is a capital offense, but some people will always take the risk for huge profits.
Now Lu Yanke has figured it out: these big clients are all one-off deals, and they're worried something might happen in Beijing.
Therefore, they would quickly withdraw after completing a single transaction.
Lu Yanke enjoys dealing with this kind of person the most.
The money and goods are settled, and we will never see each other again.
However, the guests who came today were particularly difficult to deal with.
They drove the price down very low.
Lu Yanke didn't want to lose this business deal; it was a risk-free business anyway, and with a large volume, he could still make a fortune.
The customers didn't believe Lu Yanke could supply so much goods and asked to see the inventory records.
Lu Yanke showed them a portion of the account books to prove that he had not lied.
During the bargaining process, Jiang He, disguised as a bearded follower, successfully made a copy of the account book.
Lu Yanke, unsuspecting, was still basking in the joy of about to make a fortune.
Just then, a flustered sound of footsteps rang out: "Master, a lot of officials have arrived outside!"
