Chapter 1586: 1586
“Yes.”
Su Qingyue narrowed her eyes slightly, “I said it, within five years, I want to establish power and wealth as substantial as that of the first-class families!”
Yinzhu looked at her young lady’s proud deanor, not doubting that her master could achieve it.
The mining rights were originally unobtainable, but the young lady arranged for the assassination of the official in charge of the mining rights, then pretended to save him, bribing him with a hefty sum, thus establishing a layer of connections. With the highest officials providing coverage, the lower officials naturally didn’t dare to give trouble.
Not long after, Su Qingyue’s newly purchased ten shopfronts in the capital city opened for business. In addition to selling her ‘invented’ moisturizing cream, she also sold so fine jewelry and her improved version of local costics. Moisturizing cream did not exist in this era, and many people had dry skin prone to cracking. Once the moisturizing cream hit the market, it was snapped up imdiately, regularly selling out, necessitating increased production.
Soon afterward, the empty lands she purchased at the outskirts and the tail end of the city were turned into a brothel nad “Secret Fragrance and Sparse Shadows.” Thanks to the elegant environnt, and her offering makeup knowledge as the ‘young Master Tianji’, so modern tunes, along with attractive songs and dances, all different from ordinary local brothels, her business was exceptionally booming.
A row of shopfronts was set up at the entrance of the brothel, specializing in the sale of costics, dicinal als, and snacks. Soon, this place turned into a bustling street.
The two acres of good fields she also gradually planted with herbs suitable for sale, establishing the largest dicine hall in the capital city—Tianji Pavilion. The dicine hall not only sold a complete range of herbs but also employed imperial doctors who had treated illnesses in the court or famous doctors from the martial world.
The most famous was the world’s number one divine doctor ‘Unnad’ who would honor Tianji Pavilion’s invitation to treat so difficult and miscellaneous diseases.
From then on, the reputation of Tianji Pavilion grew even greater.
In secret, Su Qingyue established her own network of spies to obtain more valuable information.
Not only that, she covertly returned to her old trade, buying a few killers from other assassin organizations, then having her subordinates select and purchase so slaves suitable for training as killers.
There were newly trained ones, as well as those with a foundation who were directly nurtured.
Initially, her trusted subordinates trained the killers following her instructions, and at the final stage, she personally took charge of the training.
The iron mine in the capital city was also soon exploited, yielding nurous taels of silver. After a year, Su Qingyue scouted and purchased several mine mountains across the country for mining…
Money bred money, strength rolled over strength, and those who attempted to obstruct Tianji Pavilion’s power, were either crippled or died mysteriously.
Tianji Pavilion expanded its power and wealth inexorably.
Unknowingly, ti flew by, and five years passed.
During these five years, since the Xiao Chonghuan couple believed that Chang Haotian had sent people to break their legs, the Xiao Family and Pear Blossom Villa were in constant strife.
anwhile, the Gongsun Family, furious after a failed marriage alliance with the Xiao Family, beca mortal enemies with the Xiao Family.
The villa and the two major families were constantly engaged in secret battles, incurring significant losses. Although their statuses remained unaffected, their power showed no progress for five years.
And among the rising forces in the world, one was Tianji Pavilion, the other was Poison King Valley. After five years of developnt, their strength was surprisingly equal to the villa and the two major families. The previous tripartite balance of power turned into a five-way balance of power, which beca a frequent topic of interest among the common people of Qingliang Country.
In the courtyard of the Su Mansion in the capital city, in the serene environnt, Su Qingyue sat on a lounger reading dical books.
Maid Yinzhu, holding a tray, walked over, “Young lady, you truly work hard. Ever since I started following you, you’ve been either studying dical skills or focusing on how to earn money through business. Nowadays, you finally can achieve your long-held wishes.”
