"I've already earned the money, and there are no customers so I can think of other ways. If you can't think of a way, are you looking for reasons on me?"

Gu Ning has become accustomed to the modern lifestyle, so naturally she can't stand the two men in front of her telling her what to do.

"But……"

"Okay, don't say any more."

Sheng Jingxuan was quite satisfied with Gu Ning's recent business, but after hearing what the president said, he felt that continuing like this was not a long-term solution.

"Recently, Lu Zhiyan has taken all the customers away from that ready-made clothing store, and even the business is gone. If this continues, the store will just close down!"

No matter what, he was a businessman, and he couldn't just watch the store he opened be ruined in the hands of this woman.

"Lu Zhiyan?" Sheng Jingxuan frowned, why was it him again, "Why did he steal the business?"

"He just made some gadgets that are sensational. He can't sell a few at a time. How can he make money?"

Gu Ning still looked down on Lu Zhiyan, an ancient man with backward ideas, thinking that he could not compare with him.

"It's called brocade. It seems to be a fabric shipped from the south of the Yangtze River. It's very novel. It has different colors under different lights."

The president of the Chamber of Commerce has been paying close attention to Lu Zhiyan's movements recently, and sent people to inquire carefully. Only then did he know the source of his purchases, but it was of no use.

"Isn't that simple? Just monopolize the supply of goods so that he has no way to deliver. It would be too easy for them to cut off his way of pre-selling."

Gu Ning still didn't take Lu Zhiyan seriously, and even wanted to continue to implement his next plan regardless of the current situation of the Chamber of Commerce.

"He has made an agreement with the merchants in Jiangnan a long time ago. He will only supply to one of them. No matter how high the price we offer, we cannot buy them out."

"Who said they have to buy it out with money? Your Highness only needs to find two pieces of brocade and present them to the emperor. As long as the emperor likes them, their supply will naturally be cut off."

I'm afraid bad people have brains. Gu Ning is simply a genius when it comes to doing bad things.

She knew that Lu Zhiyan had long been on guard against others snatching his supplies, so she must have been prepared for it. In this case, what cannot be shaken with money is power.

Seeing that the previous rumors were almost gone, Sheng Jingxuan sent people to Jiangnan to find two batches of higher-priced brocades, and sent them to the palace with great fanfare.

Sure enough, the emperor was indeed happy.

Most superiors like to collect some rare treasures. When they encounter such well-made good things, they naturally want more.

"Why only this little bit?"

The previous tributes to the emperor had to be several cartloads of cloth, so why did they only get two pieces this time?

Sheng Jingxuan pretended to be embarrassed. "It's not that I don't want to get more, it's just that the production period of this brocade is too long, and they have ordered a lot of goods in advance, so this is the only thing they can take out in stock, but it is already of good quality."

As an emperor, how could he allow ordinary people to wear the same clothes as him? After hearing such news, he immediately issued an imperial edict and directly designated the embroidery workshop in Jiangnan as royal use.

All supplies to Lu Zhiyan were immediately cut off. Even if they had been shipped to the capital, he had no way to use them anymore.

Originally, things were going extremely smoothly, and Lu Zhiyan thought that this model could continue. Unexpectedly, an imperial edict suddenly came from the capital.

The emperor actually monopolized all the brocades. I wonder who did it. [It’s really annoying. Didn’t Sheng Jingxuan always stay at home and never go out? Why did it happen at this time? 】

Lu Youyou knew that Gu Ning must have asked Sheng Jingxuan to take action because she couldn't see that her second brother was doing better in business than her.

The emperor had already issued the decree, and there was no room for reversal of the matter.

Fortunately, the store does not have a lot of orders, so the fabrics on hand are enough to complete the current reservations.

"Fortunately, the ban was issued after I had collected all the fabrics. Otherwise, the liquidated damages alone would have cost a huge sum."

[No, no, no more shipments. If you sell royal materials everywhere, you will definitely be beheaded! 】

Only then did Lu Youyou react, and everyone panicked. Sheng Jingxuan had directly blocked all their escape routes.

"The brocades that have been sold are probably fine. Fortunately, they were all sold before the imperial edict was issued. Even if there are, they will not lead to death."

Lu Zhiyan was still calm. He knew that Sheng Jingxuan and Gu Ning did this for revenge. Fortunately, the emperor's edict was issued late, so they escaped the disaster.

[It’s really unlucky that they still have this skill. 】

After finally handing over all the orders in his hand, Lu Zhiyan was also in trouble. It seemed that he couldn't confront Gu Ning head-on at the moment. Fortunately, the loss was not that big, so he decided to stop his efforts for the time being and hide first. a period of time.

Ever since Sheng Jingxuan was ignored by the emperor because of the witchcraft and Gu Master incident, he had not appeared for a long time, and the emperor had not interfered much. After all, he was still the candidate for the prince in his heart, so he would not be too harsh.

But after something like this happened, he wouldn't be too kind to him for a while.

It's just that the poor prince thought he could really turn over after being released. After many twists and turns, he arrived at the general's mansion again.

This time, the General's Mansion's attitude towards the prince was quite different from before.

Lu Jingyuan did not expect that the prince would appear again, so when he heard that he came to visit, he almost threw out the teacup in his hand.

Lu Zhiyan and Lu Youyou were looking at each other over business matters and didn't know what to do. When they happened to hear the news of the prince's visit, they had no choice but to put down what they were doing and hurried to the front yard.

After all, he is the prince, he is the crown prince, and everyone in the general's palace is a minister, so he cannot be too rude.

No matter how dissatisfied the prince was with his dishonesty, they still treated each other with courtesy.

"General, there is no need to be so polite. I am here today just to thank the General's Mansion for its kindness to me."

The prince asked the people behind him to bring the gifts over and place them neatly in the front yard.

"It's just some trivial things. I hope the general will accept it."

[Good guy, His Highness the Crown Prince has a lot of petty ideas. 】

A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. No matter how unpopular the prince is, he is still the crown prince of a country, and he does have a lot of good things in his hands.

Lu Youyou's eyes widened when he saw it.

Lu Jingyuan was very dissatisfied with his move and immediately stopped the movements of the prince's men.
