Chapter 277 Fengwu Bai Family
Xiao Qi said this with some satisfaction and pride.
Lin Zhaoyue learned through the subtitles that in this world, merchants were not given the respect they deserved. This was precisely why no one took notice when Fengyun Pavilion's businesses quietly infiltrated the area. No one could foresee the devastation the local economy would experience if Fengyun Pavilion completely withdrew its investment.
Even if there are people with discerning eyes who notice something, they will never link Fengyun Pavilion with the imperial court.
What's more, no one could have imagined that this was actually a secret move made by the imperial court to deal with Xiling.
What happened in Xiling also served as a wake-up call to Lin Zhaoyue.
Although Daxia has officials who are responsible for connecting with major businesses and the families that control the economic lifeline, such a mechanism is obviously not perfect enough.
After returning this time, we must set up a dedicated government office that is proficient in business and is specifically responsible for dealing with major businesses and chambers of commerce.
Monitor and control the movements of some big merchants and stores at any time.
This thought flashed through her mind, but she suppressed it temporarily.
"You're quite smart. You knew to contact Xiao Tingye." Lin Zhaoyue praised.
Xiao Qi chuckled twice, "Then I'm worried. What if we retreat too late and Lord Xiao surrounds my people?"
Lin Zhaoyue knew that Xiaoqi was quick-witted, so she was very confident in letting her go on a long journey by herself.
The events of Xiling gave her a deeper understanding of Xiaoqi.
Xiaoqi is not only quick-witted, but also able to judge the situation.
No wonder the business territory was able to expand so much in such a short period of time.
"By the way, didn't you go to discuss the trade route? How did the talks go?" Lin Zhaoyue sat down slowly and asked.
Xiao Qi also sat down beside him. "We've already agreed. After those two trade routes are opened up, trade will be more convenient in the future. However, the trade routes between countries are not something I can decide."
She smiled at Lin Zhaoyue like a kitten, "I'll have to rely on you, elder sister."
Lin Zhaoyue took a sip of tea and said, "After returning to Beijing, write down your plan and give it to me."
[I'm dying of laughter. What's the difference between this and my boss asking me to write a planning proposal?]
[It turns out that in ancient times, you had to write a plan first and then submit it to the leader for approval]
[The princess is so advanced? ]
[In modern times, princesses are all overlords]
Although Xiaoqi looked depressed for a moment, he quickly cheered up.
"I understand, elder sister."
God knows she hates writing the most.
Lin Zhaoyue put down the teacup and said, "The front line is dangerous. Why did you come here?"
Xiao Qi blinked, "It's lively here."
Then he immediately changed his tone: "The main thing is, if Xiling City is breached, according to the current situation, we must rebuild the various systems in the city as quickly as possible. My sister can help here."
Lin Zhaoyue did not expose Xiaoqi's real intention of just watching the fun.
"Well, you've thought it through very carefully."
Xiao Qi pouted embarrassedly.
After exchanging a few more pleasantries with Xiao Qi, Lin Zhaoyue saw a handsome man when she walked out of the tent.
The man was very young. When he saw Xiao Qi, a different emotion flashed in his eyes.
"Big Boss."
"Meet Her Royal Highness the Princess."
He nodded in greeting.
Lin Zhaoyue looked at him.
Bai Qinghan just stood there and let her look at him, neither humble nor arrogant, with a faint smile on his face.
That kind of demeanor is not something that an ordinary person can cultivate.
Xiao Qi took the initiative to introduce, "Eldest sister, this is my partner, Bai Qinghan."
When Lin Zhaoyue heard Bai Qinghan, she immediately thought of a noble family.
"Are you from the Fengwu Bai family?"
Fengwu City is a city built on water.
The people who built this city were the Bai family.
It is said that Fengwu City has been built for hundreds of years, and the surrounding waters look like a phoenix resting, hence the name.
The Bai family lives in Fengwu City, and has countless merchant ships at ferry terminals and docks. Whether it is shipbuilding technology or water transport system, they are the best.
Since Xiaoqi said that the other party is a partner, then he is not Xiaoqi's subordinate.
The two of them are on equal footing.
Being able to become a partner with Xiao Qi and hearing his last name, she naturally thought of the Fengwu Bai family.
Bai Qinghan's eyes changed slightly, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Xiao Qi was also shocked, "Eldest sister, how did you know?"
Lin Zhaoyue smiled and said, "Just a random guess."
She was just guessing casually, but she didn't expect that the young man next to Xiaoqi was actually from the Fengwu Bai family.
But it is really strange that someone from the Fengwu Bai family would follow Xiaoqi around everywhere.
[The Fengwu Bai family? The princess knows all this.]
[This is not mentioned in the original text.]
[Don't think about the original plot now. The princess has already broadened her horizons. Many of the plots we've discovered now are things we haven't even heard of in the original plot.]
[Eh? Why do I feel like I can see less and less footage now...]

…
Seeing that his identity had been discovered, Bai Qinghan admitted it openly.
"I am Bai Qinghan from the Fengwu Bai family, nice to meet Her Royal Highness Princess Zhaohua." He smiled and nodded.
But when he greeted Lin Zhaoyue, he glanced at Xiao Qi.
Xiao Qi also whispered softly in Lin Zhaoyue's ear, "Qinghan Fengwu is the youngest of the Bai family. His eldest brother asked him to go out and gain some experience, so he has been following me around for a while. The real person in charge of the Bai family is his eldest brother, and Bai Qinghan is just an idler."
Lin Zhaoyue raised her eyebrows and nodded slightly at Bai Qinghan.
Didn't say anything.
Although she felt that the Bai family was unlikely to keep a idler.
But she would not interfere in Xiaoqi's affairs.
What's more, if Xiaoqi had someone from the Bai family by her side, it would only benefit her and not harm her.
After this little episode, Xiao Qi went to meet Lin Shen. After chatting for a few words, Xiao Qi took Bai Qinghan away from the base.
She knew that a war was about to break out and she didn't want to waste time here, so she went to a nearby town first, checked the shops, and met up with her men.
Bai Qinghan came over to say hello to Lin Zhaoyue and didn't say anything else.
Until I left with Xiaoqi.
After Bai Qinghan and Xiao Qi left, Xiao Tingye, now dressed in casual clothes, slowly walked out.
He was wearing a dark, wide-sleeved brocade robe, which made him look more powerful and noble than when he was wearing armor. There was also a hint of arrogance and casualness in his laziness.
A light dampness after a bath came over, with a fresh woody scent.
"The Fengwu Bai family... the Seventh Princess is also a capable person." Xiao Tingye said leisurely, "Although it is rumored that the Fengwu Bai family is ruled by the eldest son, and the other brothers and sisters do not participate in major decision-making. But I heard that... the Fengwu Bai family actually loves the youngest the most."
"However, being able to connect with the Fengwu Bai family is a good thing for Daxia."
As he spoke, he had already walked to Lin Zhaoyue's side and looked sideways in the direction where Xiaoqi and his group's convoy left.
