Chapter 160: Smooth Trade Routes



Two days passed like this. Wang Yi looked at the silver piled up like a mountain in his space and returned to the villa with satisfaction.

She hadn't counted the silver in her space carefully, but there were roughly two million taels. Even Zheng Yeheng was shocked when he heard it. He carefully helped her clear up all traces, worried that someone would do something bad to her.

Li Chengcai and Meng Cuilan stayed there to continue running the business, and Wang Yi left them three thousand taels of silver as capital, asking them to run some other businesses themselves, or open a store they wanted to open.

Wang Yi also asked Zheng Yeheng to help with the white jade mask and ordinary ginseng, and found a fixed person in Qingdong City to transport the items back and forth.

Now she only needed to place her belongings in the warehouse at the back door of the farm, and someone would sign a receipt to pick them up and deliver them to Qingdong City. Wang Yi was determined to pay Zheng Yeheng for the transportation costs.

As the saying goes, even brothers have to settle accounts clearly, not to mention that Wang Yi hasn't married him yet, so Zheng Yeheng's people can't be made to work for nothing.

The main reason is that I don’t want to take advantage of Zheng Yeheng.

Jinbao and Yinbao sat in the hall with their hands in their pockets, feeling a little uneasy, and watched their mother take out a thick stack of banknotes.

"Mom, what are you going to do?"

Wang Yi’s space has now become full of too many livestock to accommodate.

She was too lazy to do it herself, but since the space was private, she couldn't take the animals out, so she decided to ask Jin Bao and Yin Bao to open a ranch. On the surface, it was a ranch, but in reality, it was to find a source of livestock for the system.

"I'll provide you with a large number of adult livestock and a number of young animals. You'll be responsible for setting up a ranch and starting things off. Maybe you can figure it out?"

Jinbao and Yinbao were shocked. Suddenly, they felt a little guilty that their mother asked them to do such a big business.

"Mom, can we do this?"

Wang Yi has already asked people to look for refugees in and outside the city who can take care of livestock. In fact, it is not difficult to just find some accountants who can do math.

In addition, all of his sons have taken the enlightenment pill, and they have learned arithmetic and writing very quickly these days. They are now able to run their own business.

As for the difficulties in doing business, there are almost no difficulties in the four surrounding cities.

After all, her business all depends on Zheng Yeheng's big legs, and giving him 20% of the net profit is just to buy a good umbrella of protection.

After Wang Yi carefully calculated the matter and was sure that there would be no mistakes, he handed it over with confidence.

Now, the only way left is to get food, which is reserved for the boss.

In order to maintain the status quo, preserve the roots, and eliminate the diseases, they will all follow Zheng Yeheng to gain experience in the military camp. They will not focus on these trivial calculations, and Wang Yi does not intend to care about their future and prospects.

Needless to say, Liugen is now concentrating on training his skills in killing the enemy, sweating profusely in the military camp all day long.

Shoucheng has been taken in by Zheng Yeheng's first literary retainer. Because of his outstanding literary intelligence, he has successfully captured the heart of his master and is being educated behind closed doors. He is bound to be trained to become an excellent civil servant.

Qubing was still young, and together with Mo Xin, they had also found a mentor to teach them both civil and military skills. The two of them were like brothers, sharing similar interests and a good match.

Now there is only the eldest boss, and Wang Yi wants to hand over the most important thing to him, which is the sales and output of grain.

At the same time, Wang Yi also mentioned the establishment of Zhenbao Trading Company to Zheng Yeheng.

Before she had said a few words, Zheng Yeheng had already understood her intentions, decided to support her, and allocated a lot of manpower to her.

After being busy for half a month, Zheng Yeheng still couldn't find her.

Only when a long queue formed in front of the farm warehouse did Li Shenggen and Wang Yi return to the farm.

Now, the eldest son has behaved like the head of the family. His every move and gesture is no longer that of the rural boy he used to be.

Wang Yi was extremely pleased and handed over full responsibility for the management of the granary.

The Treasure Trading Company has completely opened up its sales channels and has established its own stores in every city within the territory under the jurisdiction of King Zheng Yehengyuan.

Selling grain, cooked food, medicinal herbs, and ginseng.

Only the white jade mask is sold only to Qingdong City.

Ten portions a day, never more. Wang Yi is very lazy now. Before going to bed, he controls his consciousness to tidy up the fields and pastures, and then puts the harvested products into the warehouse.

The next day, special people would come to take away the food and slaughter the livestock.

Driven by Fulu Farm, Xinying Village became completely prosperous.

The refugees who had followed Wang Yi to build houses had already established their native places and household registrations in Zheng Yeheng's fiefdom. They had gotten rid of their refugee status and became citizens of Shengyun City.

Zheng Yeheng also picked up thousands of wounded soldiers from the front line and settled them between Shengyun City and Qingdong City. Now Xinyingzhuang has become a prosperous town.

Another half month passed.

Because of an imperial decree issued half a month ago, Wang Yi drove Zheng Yeheng out of the farm and did not allow him to come.

Not surprisingly, their marriage was rejected by the emperor.

The imperial edict did not approve and seemed to want to arrange a marriage for Zheng Yeheng. Wang Yi simply stopped seeing him and said she wanted to break up with him very seriously.

Of course, Wang Yi was only serious for a moment. The emperor was far away, and Zheng Yeheng climbed over the wall that night. Wang Yi was so angry that she drove him out.

Everyone around them knew that the relationship between the two could not be shaken by an imperial decree.

On the second day, Mo Naihe brought Shen Yueru to the farm and left Shen Yueru with Wang Yi in the name of visiting Mo Xin.

"Here, have some of the freshly made lard. It's extra crispy." Wang Yi now had a steady stream of money flowing back to the farm via the trade routes. She gave some to her sons, some to Zheng Yeheng's people, and kept half of the net profit for herself. And even with just this half, from the three areas of livestock, agriculture, and treasures, she already earned millions of taels of silver each month.

Wang Yi had no trouble taking over the silver banks in these cities by himself.

She even started planning to open a silver shop.

I am surprisingly free now, but I also love to eat a lot, so I spend all day thinking about making some modern and delicious food.

Look, I just asked my daughter-in-law to make some lard residue. It was coated with flour and fried, sprinkled with salt and cumin. It was especially crispy and delicious.

When the city lord's wife saw the lard residue being served, she suddenly covered her mouth and began to retch.

"I, what's wrong with me? I came here today because I wanted to ask my sister to take my pulse. I always feel that I have a poor appetite and feel nauseous these days."

Wang Yi was stunned, and when she looked carefully, Shen Yueru's body panel appeared. She was instantly surprised, pulled Shen Yueru's wrist, and carefully diagnosed it again.

"Good Yueru, have you consulted other doctors?"

Shen Yueru shook her head, frowned, and pushed the plate of lard residue a little further away.

Wang Yi covered her mouth with her hands and smiled, saying, "Don't worry, you are pregnant."

"Ah?" Shen Yueru was stunned for a moment, and then tears as big as beans rolled down her face.

"I, I'm pregnant?"

Then he ran outside. After running for just two steps, he held his stomach and started walking. He couldn't help but smile.
