Shen Changshan was annoyed, "Su's Trading Company is big, but we can't withdraw our business without any reason. They are simply bullying people too much."

"If you spread the word, you won't be afraid of ruining Su's reputation!"

However, he only dared to talk to his son about the things that could be made in shopping malls without resorting to any means. He was just saying it.

It's a good way to vent your anger.

"It's not without reason..."

"What?"

Shen Wang's face turned pale, "My son came to visit him as soon as he received the news. Shopkeeper Tang from Su's Trading Company said he would not do business with a family that abandoned his own child."

Hearing this, Shen Changshan was shocked.

"How do people from the Su family know?"

You must know that no one except the Nanyang Prince's Palace and the Liu family knows the truth about Gu Tang's life experience. For more than a year, everyone thought she was an adopted daughter.

But it has never been exposed...

Shen Wang gritted his teeth, "It's not like that idiot Liu Yu. He went to curry favor with Shopkeeper Tang for the sake of family business, but he got drunk and told the truth about Gu Tang being the real daughter."

"But don't worry, father, as long as we refuse to admit it, it will be just a rumor."

Hearing what his son said, Shen Changshan felt a lot relieved, but when he thought about Nanyang Prince's Palace and Su's Trading Company, it was because of that unfilial daughter that they broke off their cooperation with the Shen family.

He was so angry that he was dying, "Master is indeed right, Gu Tang is a loser. If she hadn't caused so many tricks, would the Shen family have become like this?!"

A look of hatred.

It seems that he has forgotten that without Gu Tang, he would not have been promoted by the Nanyang Palace, let alone use the name of the prince's future father-in-law to make a fortune in the Ministry of Industry.

Moreover, the reason why Gu Tang was kicked out was because he wanted to get the recipe for the beauty cream and squeeze out the last bit of her value.

Shen Wang was also so angry that he almost vomited blood. He had been taking care of the family business since he became an adult. In the past two years, he had finally made a name for himself in the Nanyang Palace through the Su family.

Now everything is ruined because of Gu Tang.

He thought of what he accidentally saw yesterday, and a greedy cold light burst out from his narrow eyes, "Father, now there is a way for the Shen family to increase their revenue hundreds of times even if they are separated from the Su family."

Shen Changshan squinted his eyes, half convinced.

"What method?"

Before the help of the Su family, the Shen family only had a few shops in ordinary areas and a village in the countryside. Their income was mediocre, and they were far less wealthy than they live now.

Without Su, the revenue could have increased hundreds of times...

Is there such a good way in the world?

Shen Wang walked to the door, looked around cautiously, made sure there was nothing unusual, and then closed the study door.

"I went to attend the Chamber of Commerce yesterday. The shopkeeper of Xu's Trading Company drank too much and said that there is a new jade mine in Xishan. The planting water is excellent, and it is all over the mountain, and the output is large."

"The owner of the hilltop is a young man from a poor family. He indulges in women and is lazy to eat. The hilltop is the ancestral land left by the family. He has no skills. Now that he has discovered that there is a jade mine on it, he wants to sell it."

Xu's Trading Company is one of the four major trading houses in Kyoto. If you reveal any information, the people below can make a lot of money.

Shen Changshan immediately understood what he meant, but his years of ups and downs in the officialdom made him more wary, "Did the shopkeeper of the Xu family reveal such huge news so casually?"

"Wang'er, as a father, I always feel like something is wrong."

Regarding his father's caution, Shen Wang smiled easily and said, "Father, is your son the kind of person who follows the wind and rains?"

Yesterday at the Chamber of Commerce, he arrived a little late because he wanted to meet the shopkeeper of the Su family. When he arrived, all the big bosses of the Chamber of Commerce were very drunk.

When he was about to greet the boy, Xu's shopkeeper grabbed his sleeve and told him the news about the new jade mine as if to show off.

In his arms, a booklet also fell out, which was full of detailed information about the jade mine.

And generally when buying a mine, the buyer can bring people to mine and survey, and he is not afraid that Xu's news is false.

After hearing Shen Wang's words, Shen Changshan looked troubled, "But even if we know the news, we may not be able to rob the Xu family."

Since ancient times, bidding has always been for the highest bidder. Even if the Shen family is not in crisis, they are no match for the Xu family.

A smile flashed through Shen Wang's deep eyes, "Xu has invested most of his funds in the construction of the North Street shop this month, and also built a new restaurant on the main street."

"Xu and the others are still worried about funds. Yesterday's Chamber of Commerce meeting, the shopkeeper must have come to raise money."

"Now, only the Xu family and us know about this new jade mine. As time goes by, it won't be certain..."

Shen Changshan heard the meaning of his words, and he touched his beard with some embarrassment, "But..."

"I'm afraid our family doesn't have enough money now. If we want to buy that jade mine, we will have to sell off the land."

Shen Changshan is not very courageous.

In the past, he dared to make money in the Ministry of Industry because the Nanyang Prince's Palace took care of him. Now that the Su family has broken off cooperation, the Shen family now only has the money they have saved over the years and their land.

It was really difficult for him to make a decision so quickly if he was asked to use it all to buy jade mines.

Shen Wang noticed the man's hesitation, and he persuaded and persuaded: "There is nothing more profitable than mining. A small piece of jade, if sold well, can be dozens or even hundreds of times the cost."

"Whether the Shen family can break out of the major trading houses depends on this time. When the time comes, we will see who dares to look down on us."

"Father, this opportunity cannot be missed..."

Shen Changshan was tempted. He lowered his eyes and thought for a long time before gritting his teeth and making a decision, "Okay, if the quality of the jade mine is really good, then let's buy it."

Since the Shen family and the Nanyang Prince's Palace lost their in-laws, the attitude of those in the Ministry of Industry towards him has undergone a 180-degree change.

In the past, they supported him and assigned him the easiest jobs, but now they seemed to be mocking and retaliating against him, assigning him whatever jobs were the most tiring.

Let me ask you, how can a person be willing to eat plain wild vegetables after enjoying delicacies from mountains and seas?

Shen Wang bowed his hands and saluted, "I have invited professional miners and masters to identify the quality of jade. In the afternoon, we will set off to the new jade mine in Xishan."

His bright pupils were gleaming with joy, as if he had seen the Shen family's financial resources rising continuously under his leadership, and they would join the four major business houses in one fell swoop.

After the Shen family went to Xishan to investigate the jade mine, they immediately decided to buy it. The news soon reached Xu Yang's ears, and he immediately went to Gu Tang to report.

"Miss, Shen Wang and his son have already paid a deposit to our people. This is the contract of sale."
