"Qingzhou has violated the contract. Emperor Nanyuan will personally send people to investigate the matter. The merchants and families of Qingzhou may be implicated. For this, I can only say sorry."
"I understand." Jiang Chenyi nodded slightly.
The smuggling of aquatic products in Qingzhou has been going on for more than a year or two and is extremely rampant. Huo Tu obtained a Beili merchant ship and showed it off for many days, and everyone knew about it.
Ye Qianning had looked at the Qingzhou account book brought by Zhan Chi, and the Jiang family was not listed in it. Emperor Nanyuan's investigation into the crime would have little impact on the Jiang family.
"Brother, you actually came to see Sister Ye without telling me." Jiang Yue pushed the door open and came to the two of them in a few steps.
"Yue'er? Didn't I tell you to go back first?" Jiang Chenyi was surprised.
"I don't want to go back. I was thinking of coming to see Sister Ye, but I didn't expect to see you at the door. Second brother, why didn't you take me with you when you came to see Sister Ye?" Jiang Yue pouted, her eyes full of questions.
Jiang Chenyi glanced at Ye Qianning.
"Miss Jiang, please sit down and have a cup of tea." Ye Qianning picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea.
Jiang Yue sat down and picked up the teacup with a smile: "Sister Ye, you guys are really amazing today. Old Prince Feng and the merchants sitting there are so angry that their faces have turned green, but they have nothing to say. Their depressed expressions are so funny."
"You didn't hear how the people scolded me." Ye Qianning chuckled.
"Why bother with them? They're a bunch of snobs." Thinking of this, Jiang Yue felt indignant: "Today I finally understand what it means to be ungrateful."
"I would also like to thank Miss Jiang for speaking up for justice today."
"How could I... uh, hehe." Jiang Yue said with a slight embarrassment: "Sister Ye, did you hear everything?"
“Very loud.”
Jiang Yue scratched her head and blushed: "I was just telling the truth..."
Her cheeks turned even redder as she thought about how she had been hiding.
"Thanks."
There are very few people who can speak for them now.
"Sister Ye, what are you thanking me for? Anyone with a discerning eye can see that they are being unreasonable."
Ye Qianning smiled and said nothing.
So what if you can see it? If one person says you are black, you may not be black, but when everyone accuses you of being black, you are black.
Excuses never solve problems.
The easiest way is to show them the truth!
"Miss Ye, there is something I don't understand." Jiang Chenyi thought for a while and then spoke.
"What is it?"
"Boss Qian sold coal to Nanyuan at a low price for ten years, but Boss Gu didn't hesitate to pay a huge sum of money to acquire Nanyuan's aquatic products and build a port. Why?"
Ye Qianning turned to look at him.
"Boss Qian from the Chamber of Commerce also said today that if coal and aquatic products offset each other, the Gu family has made no money in Nanyuan at all. Why is that?" Jiang Chenyi didn't understand.
How much does a ten-year coal supply cost?
Aquatic products have indeed made money in recent years, but the money lost in the early stages of building ports and roads and acquiring Nanyuan Aquatic Products in the absence of sales channels is also sky-high.
How could a real businessman do this?
Ye Qianning was silent.
"Why don't you make any money?" Jiang Chenyi asked.
Jiang Yue was also very surprised. She realized that the atmosphere was a little wrong and secretly tugged at the corner of her second brother's clothes.
"Mr. Jiang, why do you think so?" After a long time, Ye Qianning slowly spoke.
Jiang Chenyi was stunned. Why?
He just didn't understand why, even the emperor who ruled Nanyuan would not do this for his country, why would they pay so much for Nanyuan?
"Someone has to walk the road of business." Seeing that he remained silent, Ye Qianning said softly.
