"A seal of the Eagle Caravan. Yunwen, what do you mean?"
The old lady's eyes widened, and Zhang Xinxiang couldn't believe what she heard.
Is it as she thought, that this kid gave the First Caravan as a betrothal gift to his daughter?
Mo Yunwen was very calm.
“Well, this caravan was actually inherited from my mother, and I started managing it when I was ten years old.
At first, I just thought that I couldn’t let down my mother’s will and the old people in my Luo family.
I just ran it casually, and I never expected it to become the best business in the world."
Xiushui was also listening on the side, and was also surprised when she heard that he wanted to give her the First Business as a betrothal gift.
As a modern soul, I have seen too many couples divorce or all kinds of ugly breakups.
People as pure as Mo Yunwen today can probably only be found in ancient times.
"In fact, there is a reason why I gave the eagle to Xiu'er as a betrothal gift. As early as after Xiu'er and I met in the dream, whenever I encountered some difficulties, I would ask Xiu'er.
She didn't know the specific answer at the time, but she would help find a solution afterwards.
Later, Xiuer even introduced me to many different crafts. For example, the soaps, soaps, and glass that I sell overseas were all provided by Xiuer. I found someone to research and invent and produce them, but I didn't sell them domestically, but only exported them to the West.
After making money from the sales, I went on a buying spree of foreign goods. Over the past ten years, I have finally become the top eagle in the country."
The old lady squinted her eyes and looked at Xiushui, who smiled apologetically.
She couldn't tell the old lady every time she had a dream. Especially later on, the old lady seemed very worried about her and her little brother's dreams and even asked a magician to perform a ritual.
Even if she dreamed later, he wouldn't tell her about it. As for the various prescriptions provided in the dream, she thought that since she knew them, it would be useless to hold them in her hands, so she simply spread them to the ancient times through him to see what kind of impact it would have...
Unexpectedly, this has had such an impact that the Eagle Trading Company has become the world's number one merchant caravan.
"You are right to export those products overseas, but these technologies are still too advanced for us.
As for whether to sell it domestically in the future, we’ll decide later.”
Sometimes, she is afraid that changing the local economy too much will cause adverse effects.
Mo Yunwen nodded.
"I just heard Xiu'er mention that it's best not to affect the local economy and culture too much, so I thought about going abroad.
Many of the most profitable things in our business now are brought back from abroad.
I also brought back things like telescopes, Western cups, and Western potatoes. The potatoes were something I just found, so I brought them back this time as a betrothal gift to Xiu'er.
The old lady gasped, this boy is really devoted to Xiu'er.
"Yunwen, aren't you afraid that one day our Wen family will cheat you, or take all these things from you and then abandon you?
Do you know that this thing called potato, once successfully planted, can yield several thousand kilograms per acre?
With the current yield per mu being no more than 300 to 400 kilograms, the grain income of several thousand kilograms is quite astonishing.
The most important thing is that if this kind of thing is successfully planted in the south, it can be grown for two seasons."
Mo Yunwen didn't care.
"What's mine is Xiu'er's. As for Xiu'er feeling sorry for me? That can only be because I didn't do well enough, which made her want to betray me."
What else could the old lady say but pat her granddaughter on the shoulder.
"Girl, please don't be a scumbag."
Xiushui's heart was also touched, but her focus seemed to be a little different.
"Grandma, don't you think Yunwen's mother's family is very powerful? The caravan she controls, and the people who stayed behind..."
When this was mentioned, the old lady also looked at Mo Yunwen.
"Yunwen, your mother's family?"
Zhang Xinxiang was also curious. "I always thought Sister Susu was just an ordinary girl. Her family was simple back then. Besides Sister Susu, there was only one brother who was slightly older than her.
But as Sister Susu said, that brother was also taken in by Sister Susu's family. But now that I think about it, Sister Susu is actually very unusual.
Otherwise, how could Mo Haowen, who was the prince of Qingguo at the time, be so eager to ask for marriage? "
Also, Sister Susu doesn't seem to like going out much, and her identity seems to be just an ordinary wealthy businesswoman.
But when I look back now, I realize that I didn’t think enough.
Although the Luo family kept a low profile back then, many large and secluded families wanted to make friends with them.
The more Zhang Xinxiang thought about it, the more she felt that her seemingly low-key sister seemed to have a very unusual identity.
Mo Yunwen was stared at by everyone, and his expression became serious.
He looked at Uncle Zhong.
Uncle Zhong, you are the elder who is close to my mother. You are the only one who knows the most about my mother’s family.
Uncle Zhong glanced at them and finally sighed softly.
"Actually, your speculations are all correct. The Luo family was indeed a reclusive family back then.
The reason why they went into seclusion was because every heir of the family would always die inexplicably.
By the time the young master's mother's generation came around, she was the only one left. To protect her, the Luo family quietly moved to the capital and lived in seclusion in the city.
But no one expected that the mistress would still be involved with the Prince Qing's Mansion. And because of marrying into the Duke Qing's Mansion, she eventually lost her life.
Xiushui suddenly lost his mind.
"How did Aunt Luo die?"
"She suffered damage during childbirth and has been bedridden ever since. Prince Qing has been sincerely seeking medical treatment. Back then, he paid a fortune to find a famous doctor to treat Su Su. This story has also been widely circulated in the capital."
Zhang Xinxiang told what she knew back then.
"But something happened to me later, and I never knew about Sister Susu's situation again. I originally thought that with Prince Qing's ability, he might be able to save Sister Susu's life. But she was still a beauty with a tragic fate."
Seeing her sad, Wen Sunan and Xiushui hurried to comfort her.
"mother……"
"I'm fine, I just feel a little sad when I think of Sister Susu. We both have very few friends, and if we hadn't accidentally collided with each other in a carriage when we were young, we wouldn't have gotten together.
Afterwards, because of our intertwined fates, we didn’t even see each other for the last time.”
"Mother, Uncle Zhong, what do you think of Prince Qing? Is he sincere to Aunt Luo?"
Uncle Zhong nodded affirmatively.
"It should be sincere. After all, it has been many years since the mistress passed away, and there are only two women in the Prince Qing's mansion. One is the former maid.
The other one was a maid who was sent by the old mistress when she was still alive. As far as I know, the master rarely visited their room after the mistress passed away. The mistress's position has been vacant ever since.
