“….”

Zhao Mu sneered, dismissing the sum of 110,000 liang as inconsequential. “A mere 110,000 liang? The Zhao Family possesses far more than that. Butler, withdraw 110,000 liang from the account.”

“Yes, Old Master!”

“Mr. Sun, what are Madame Shao’s intentions regarding the 100,000 mulberry fields?” Zhao Shu inquired, feigning innocence. “Since the mulberry garden belongs to Old Master and his wife, what are your thoughts on it, Young Master Zhao?”

Zhao Shu nodded in agreement. “Indeed, I’ve already sold off the mulberry garden!”

This revelation sparked another surge of anger within Zhao Mu. He couldn’t help but seethe with frustration at his disobedient son.

It was an immutable fact, one that gnawed at him relentlessly.

Taking a deep breath, Zhao Mu continued, “Madame Shao, are you planning to sell the silk, or…”

His heart ached once more at the thought.

The silk produced from the 100,000 mu mulberry field should have rightfully belonged to him, sparing him the need for any liang!

Yet now, it had all slipped through his grasp.

Unfilial son! Unfilial son!

Sun Qian clarified, “We are indeed selling the silk. My Madame has made it clear that only those who excel will have the privilege to purchase it. If you wish to acquire some, Old Master Zhao, you may discuss it directly with the manager. My Madame isn’t personally involved in these matters.”

The manager in question was not under Qiao Xuan’s authority but was instead managed by Zhao Shu and Uncle Qing.

Sun Qian was merely a pawn, playing her role according to Zhao Shu’s scheme.

Upon hearing Sun Qian’s words, the Zhao Family’s hearts skipped a beat. Madame Shao was not personally overseeing such a substantial enterprise? This revelation hinted at the Shao Family’s considerable influence…

He couldn’t even bring himself to contemplate it.

This only deepened the apprehension Zhao Mu and the Zhao Family felt towards Qiao Xuan. They couldn’t afford to underestimate Zhao Shu either.

Zhao Mu found Sun Qian’s tepid response to be deeply dissatisfying. The silk issue gnawed at him, stoking his irritation.

However, Sun Qian remained indifferent to Zhao Mu’s feelings. Once the money was in his possession, he took his leave.

Before departing, Sun Qian patted Zhao Shu on the shoulder and mustered a forced smile. “Old Master suggests that Young Master Zhao pays him a visit when you have the time. We could have a chat.”

The expressions on Zhao Mu and Zhao Ye’s faces shifted slightly. Meanwhile, Ms. Qin ground her teeth in silent frustration, cursing inwardly. This woman had clearly aligned herself with an influential family, explaining her audacity.

Zhao Shu graciously nodded, maintaining his smile. “Your kindness is greatly appreciated, Old Master Shao. I’ll be sure to pay you a visit in the near future!”

Sun Qian acknowledged the response with a nod before making his exit.

With Sun Qian’s departure, the pretentious atmosphere surrounding Zhao Mu dissipated. He turned to glare at Zhao Shu, still finding him irksome, though he couldn’t vent his anger.

Moreover, what would be the point of eliminating him? The 100,000 mu of mulberry fields would never be returned.

Zhao Mu had initially harbored thoughts of wresting back control of the mulberry fields from Madame Shao before Sun Qian’s arrival. However, following the encounter, he dared not even entertain such notions.

He couldn’t afford to provoke the homeowner, given the formidable obstinacy of their servant.

Zhao Mu understood all too well that he could ill afford to offend Madame Shao and her husband. The knowledge that he was Yangzhou’s wealthiest individual and the loss of respect from the local authorities was evidence enough of this shift.

In the end, the Zhao Family found themselves at a loss regarding the mulberry fields, a laughingstock without any recourse.
