In the early morning, Yin told her that they could take action today, and she immediately sent Saito to Linglong Pavilion, preparing to have him handle the matter on behalf of the Ulanara clan.
"Little darling, I'm not good at this..." Seto said helplessly.
Fei Yanggu always said that of the three siblings, only she had a business mind, while the other two were only good at maintaining the family business.
"Big brother, you're not good at this. Just standing there, your status is better than mine!" Qingyan pouted, her little face drooping.
Outsiders all thought that everything in the Ulanara mansion was inherited by the men, but Feiyangu did something that surprised the court officials.
She was basically handed over the management of the family business, while her two sons did what they liked.
“Ama said that all the family business will be handed over to you.” Seto wanted to avoid a situation where the siblings would fight each other.
Within the capital, many families were locked in fierce infighting over their meager family fortunes, causing constant turmoil and unrest within their homes.
“You siblings shouldn’t compromise. Seto, you step forward and resolve this. Xiao Guai will direct from behind the scenes. Men are better suited to handle things than women,” Yin said directly.
After all, she is the heir in name only, and all the direct descendants of the Ulanara clan are officials in the court. Apart from Xiao Guai, the rest of them are not allowed to do business.
"Well, Ah Hun, you don't want to see me dealing with those people, do you?" Xiao Guai said pitifully.
At this moment, Seto had been persuaded by Qingyan and Yin, and was afraid that things might change again. Given their special status, it was not appropriate for them to step forward and handle the situation.
"Alright, I'll handle it for you!" Seto nodded with a straight face. As a member of the Ulanara clan, he should also play a role in the family business.
We can't rely on Qingyan to develop and expand, especially since Yin is also watching us closely.
"Hehe." She grinned. "Ah Hun, it would be even better if we could get some useful information out of them after we've gotten rid of them all."
With Seto personally taking charge, she should be more reassuring than other servants, and she would also be able to obtain more information.
He hesitated for a moment, but then agreed to her request.
Each time a servant was sent back or beaten to death, the Dragon Guards would be present. They would interrogate the servant first, and only after confirming that there were no problems could the servant be beaten to death directly.
“Ah Hun, these servants are not intended to be given important positions by the royal family. Father has already issued a secret report, so there is no need to go through the Dragon Guards for interrogation.” Yin’s words gave Seto some confidence. “If Xiao Guai wants to get useful information, ask Tu Lichen for help. His interrogation skills are the best in the Dragon Guards.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Seto breathed a sigh of relief. He had a very good personal relationship with Tulichen, and if he needed help, he would not hesitate to ask Kangxi for help.
If Emperor Kangxi asks, Tulichen will not hide anything; if Emperor Kangxi does not ask, they can pass through safely.
"Hmm, little darling, shall we go take a look together?" While Seto can punish the servants, the one who truly makes the decisions is Qingyan alone.
"Okay!" Qingyan wanted to let the guests out a bit. One of the main reasons Yin agreed to let Saito show up was that Qingyan didn't want to leave the inn's entrance.
She hadn't completely controlled all the bearded men, and if any of them were to be so foolish as to actually harm her, things would get quite serious.
"Little Darling..." Yin lowered his voice, "We made a promise."
"No way!" Qingyan pouted and looked at him reproachfully. "I have to go. If it's just Ah Hun, and those people cause trouble, it will definitely take a whole day."
These things must be resolved quickly and decisively; there's no room for delay. Giving the other party even one night will only make things worse and more difficult to manage.
Not to mention, many of the managers and assistant managers here are people she once thought highly of. Those people are not only skilled in business, but also quick-witted, much better than the average person. If it weren't for a major problem, she could have solved it nearby.
After pondering for a while, Yin finally gave in.
"Fine, if you want to go, you'll have to wear the cap when you go out." Knowing he couldn't dissuade him, Yin stated his request directly.
"I know!" Qingyan muttered.
Normally, she rarely wears a hat when she goes out, always feeling that she is separated from the real world by a hazy veil. Now, in order to go out, she has to wear it.
After a cup of tea, the group boarded a carriage to go to Yuelai Inn. E'shuo went directly to Linglong Pavilion, intending to do both at the same time. Fortunately, Yuelai Inn and Linglong Pavilion were only separated by a wall.
Otherwise, they certainly cannot do it at the same time. Therefore, it is necessary to choose one important store to carry out the task.
"Little darling, I think there might be trouble with the second brother," Seto whispered.
E Shuo shouted directly, "When the two brothers go out together, he always has to have someone else finish his tasks. This time, he's being allowed to handle things independently. He not only wants to finish them in advance, but also wants to get more information out of them."
"Second Brother, your side is the key. I'm not going there because I don't want those veteran craftsmen to plead for me." The craftsmen that Qingyan personally selected have worked with the shopkeepers for many years and are certainly very familiar with them.
They were also hoping to avoid having a different boss and definitely didn't want to have to get used to being alone again.
“Little darling, I know!” E Shuo said with a smile.
He found the atmosphere inside the carriage too oppressive, so he made a joke to lighten the mood.
"Second brother, after you go there, don't pay any attention to the old craftsmen who plead for you." She pursed her lips and told them the worst-case scenario.
Outside, many people are saying behind Qingyan's back that the commission is too high. In fact, the restaurant owner must be taking a cut.
To avoid taking responsibility, they all claimed that Qingyan took a cut.
Therefore, many people felt that the Linglong Pavilion shops in the capital had the lowest profit margins, and many craftsmen from the south preferred to travel to the northwest to work rather than go to the capital.
As soon as the carriage arrived at the door, many customers looked at it. On ordinary days, carriages that had not been properly maintained would appear.
For these kinds of households, Linglongge should send people to provide door-to-door service.
"The master is here. Quickly call the two managers over," said Manager Fu of Linglong Pavilion.
This man was personally selected by Qingyan, and even his wife is someone Qingyan trusts. This time, their whole family is on the list of those to be cleaned up.
At this moment, Manager Fu felt somewhat apprehensive. They had heard rumors that Qingyan was going to clean house. They had been worried that the shops in the Northwest would be targeted. Later, news came from the capital that the shops in the South would be targeted as well.
During this period, Qingyan frequently visited Linglong Pavilion in the Northwest to use jewelry and headwear. These were all from Linglong Pavilion's collection, and the prince's primary wife would be quite presentable with them.
"Master..." The manager and two assistant managers came out to greet them. The customers inside were served as quickly as possible. Today, Linglong Pavilion was using its "Closed" sign for the first time. (To be continued. If you like this work, please vote for it on Qidian.com. Your support is my greatest motivation.
