There was a lot of hustle and bustle under the city wall, with many people coming in and out.
The city gate is still under inspection, and many caravans leaving the city need to queue up. Recently, the tea stalls under the city gate have been doing a booming business.
"Miss, that is Li Mu, who will take over as the imperial merchant." Luo Wen stood quietly behind her and said softly.
Ye Qianning looked up and saw that the young man was quite handsome. He was among the top ten academic students at the graduation of Loushan Academy the year before last, so he was admitted to the Ministry of Revenue as an exception.
He had made many contributions in the past year, and his father Li Zhengsi often mentioned him in front of Emperor Beili, so Emperor Beili remembered him.
Li Zhengsi secretly interacted a lot with the Grand Tutor, who was the prince's childhood tutor and was considered to be a member of Concubine Yuan's party.
Li Mu returned to the caravan, mounted his horse and led the caravan towards Shuijingtai.
It was not until the caravan disappeared into the crowd that Ye Qianning withdrew his gaze and looked back at the city wall.
The Gu family's staggering wealth indeed attracted the emperor's attention. It was only a matter of time before the imperial merchants replaced the Gu family's business. It would be difficult to do business in Beili in the future.
No one dared to refute the emperor's control of business.
If Emperor Beili interferes with Nanyuan, the treasury will be depleted. She doesn't believe that his conversation with Prince Yu would be easily heard by Li Mu. Gu Shuo is really a cruel person.
Of course, she admired this black-hearted cruelty.
If it were her, she would also make Emperor Beili spit out blood!
The Beili Emperor's carriage passed along the official road, gradually moving away.
Ye Qianning stood up from the tea shed: "Let's go."
"Going back home?"
"To the pawnshop."
"Young lady wants to pawn something?"
"kindness."
Ye Qianning responded and got on the carriage.
Luo Wen had a puzzled look on his face, and he jumped into the carriage and drove towards the city.
Ye Qianning took out two bags of things from the space. One bag contained the jewelry looted from Concubine Yuan, and the other bag contained the two boxes of items that Prime Minister Gao had moved in last time.
Concubine Yuan had countless pieces of jewelry. Since they couldn't be sold as they were, she recently melted down all the pure gold jewelry and removed the pearls, jade and other jewelry and changed the styles.
The pearl necklace had been placed in the space for many days, and it became more translucent, as if it had been polished, with a bright color. Even if it was placed in front of Concubine Yuan, she probably wouldn't be able to recognize it.
Some jade bracelets also quietly changed color slightly. The change of jade was unexpected to Ye Qianning.
Jade nourishes people, and people also nourish jade. Bracelets that have been influenced by the spiritual energy of space exude a faint fragrance that makes people unable to take their eyes off.
Pawning it would also bring in a large sum of money.
The horse galloped and arrived at Yumin Pawnshop in the time it took to stick of incense.
"The young lady is here." Luo Wen stopped the carriage.
Ye Qianning lifted the car window curtain and looked up.
Yumin Pawnshop is the largest pawnshop in Kyoto City and the Gu family's property, but no one knows to whom this property was divided.
"Take these two bags in and pawn them." She kicked the bags forward.
When Luo Wen opened the door, he saw two particularly large bags. He remembered that he had not left anything in the car before leaving. He was shocked for a moment, but it disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"Miss, do you have an idea about the price?" Luo Wen carried one bag on his shoulder and held another bag in the other hand.
"One hundred and fifty thousand taels, the lowest price."
Ye Qianning estimated based on the current price that even if it was sold at a normal price, it could be sold for between 180,000 and 200,000. In business, there must always be some profit left.
"yes."
Luo Wen walked into the pawnshop carrying one bag after another.
