He thought about it for several days before carefully asking a friend who was in business for help.
Merchants are driven by profit; he wasn't sure he could win, but he was willing to take a gamble.
On this day, he changed his clothes, dressed himself up in an ordinary manner, put on a straw hat, and went to visit a friend.
Every place has its own richest man, and the one he went to was the richest man in the area when he took office. He didn't talk about national righteousness; it was just the Zhao family fighting amongst themselves. Whoever became emperor, the dynasty would be called Dayong.
He directly offered Zhao Shu as a target. Everyone knew Zhao Shu: a shareholder of Sanguzhai and the founder of Chunyuan. Her business had spread all over the country. Cooperating with Sanguzhai and Chunyuan would bring in a lot of money.
"Brother Liu, are you really able to make connections?" Master Chen asked incredulously, but with great anticipation.
Liu Ren'an expressed his utmost seriousness, saying, "I am merely a minor official under the Yongwang Mansion, but both the Prince and the Princess are extremely approachable."
“Oh, Brother Liu, you are too modest. You are one of the Yong Prince’s men. How can you call yourself a lowly official? You will surely have a bright future and unlimited prospects. I was blind to your greatness.” Master Chen was very much looking forward to getting in touch with the Yong Prince’s mansion.
Liu Ren'an couldn't guarantee anything else, but he could guarantee that if he went to Prince Yong's residence to request an audience, Zhao Shu would see him. As long as he could see her, everything would be fine. However, whether he could actually get close to her depended on his own abilities.
Thinking of this, he smiled faintly, "Brother, I can't guarantee anything else, but I can guarantee that I'll be able to meet the princess. Besides, Fei Peng is in charge of most of the princess's business, and I know him. It won't be a problem to introduce him to her."
Overjoyed at the assurance, Master Chen believed that fortune favored the bold. He was not interested in who became emperor; he was only interested in whether his business could expand beyond Xiliang and cooperate with powerful clans outside the region.
"Then I thank Brother Liu in advance. Brother Liu wouldn't come to the palace without a reason. May I ask what business you have with me, sir?" He was a shrewd man and knew that if he didn't help with the matter, it would be impossible for him to see anyone in the Prince Yong's mansion.
Liu Ren'an is now increasingly displaying the demeanor of a commanding official, and his attitude is impeccable. Upon hearing this, he said with utmost seriousness, "There is something I'm afraid I'll have to trouble Brother Chen with..." He then briefly explained the matter of sending someone out of Xiliang.
In business, anyone who becomes the richest man in the area has connections. Sending someone out isn't too difficult; it's just a matter of spending money. But he thought about getting in touch with the Prince Yong's mansion, and besides, Liu Ren'an had a good reputation in Xiliang and was a trustworthy person. So, he gritted his teeth and agreed without much hesitation. "Alright, brother, please wait for news. I need to prepare for a few days."
