Shopkeeper Li was shocked.

?

He didn't expect his master to be so decisive.

?

Do or die!

?

If the Xie family really found a new source of supply, all previous arrangements would be in vain.

?

It is naturally impossible for the master to take out all his belongings to buy all the silk in Penglai.

?

First, the price is too high, and second, the master cannot come up with so much silver at once.

?

But the Xie family was obviously going to Penglai to find a new source of goods, so Manager Li had no choice but to cut off the source of the problem and directly take Xie Xiangyu's life!

?

Once the Xie family is without a leader, it will surely fall into chaos, and they can then take advantage of the opportunity to take over the Xie family's assets.

?

Thinking of this, Manager Li repeated the words that the guard had said, "If you don't succeed, you will die. If you don't succeed, you will die!"

?

Then he made a decision, "I understand. Please report to the master and I will definitely see to it."

?

I followed Manager Li and went out to make arrangements.

?

Soon, a group of people hurriedly left Yangzhou City on horseback.

?

Little did they know that all this was seen by a man in gray who was paying close attention to Xiuyunfang.

?

The other party turned around and released a white dove.

?

The white dove flew into the sky and disappeared after a while.

?

In the afternoon, Xie Liuzheng was sitting alone in the cabin practicing calligraphy. She was really bored and had already figured out the entire ship thoroughly.

?

Now she was really bored, so she started practicing calligraphy.

?

Xie Liuzheng felt that this was the only way to keep herself calm. Otherwise, she was worried that she would be too impetuous and miss some problems.

?

Xie Liuzheng felt that this trip was destined not to be peaceful.

?

But so far, the other party has not made any move. Xie Liuzheng couldn't help but think, "Could it be that the other party wants to buy all the silk in Penglai?"

?

If the other party really did this, then Xie Liuzheng and the others’ trip to Penglai would be in vain.

?

Xie Liuzheng didn't think that the other party would not know where they were going. The reason why Xie Liuzheng insisted on following them was to guard against the other party's sneak attack.

?

With him watching over her, Xie Liuzheng felt that she could protect her mother at the critical moment.

?

But now it seems that the other party has not taken any action even though they are so far away from Yangzhou City. She feels that the other party must be planning something bad.

?

If she were that person, having set up such a big scheme and seeing it was about to succeed, that person would definitely not give up.

?

"But with that person's financial strength, it is not enough to consume all the silk in Penglai." Xie Liuzheng murmured to himself.

?

Otherwise, she would not have suggested that Xie Xiangyu go to Penglai to purchase goods. If the other party took up all the silk in Penglai, they would return empty-handed.

?

And a few days of time were wasted.

?

Xie Liuzheng would naturally anticipate all the situations that might be encountered in advance, but she did not anticipate the opponent's next move.

?

According to her prediction, now that they have left Yangzhou City, the other party will definitely take the next step.

?

Therefore, she also arranged people in Yangzhou City, and also arranged people in the places she passed along the way, in order to guard against sudden attacks from the other party.

?

But there was no movement along the way, Xie Liuzheng couldn't help but be stunned, "Am I wrong? The other party's target is not us, but the batch of goods?"

?

If this is the case, then Xie Liuzheng will need to adjust his next direction.

?

Just as she was about to call someone to adjust the direction, Qiuyue outside suddenly shouted excitedly.

?

"Miss, look, there's a white dove flying over here!"

?

Hearing this, Xie Liuzheng hurried out and saw Qiuyue had already caught the white dove.

?

After Qiuyue took a note from Baige's leg, she immediately handed it to Xie Liuzheng, "Miss, this is from Baige."

?

Xie Liuzheng took the note, glanced at it, and then immediately burned it to ashes.

?

After doing all this, Xie Liuzheng stuck her head out to look outside again. She only had time to see a green figure hurriedly leaving, as if a servant happened to pass by.

?

But Xie Liuzheng did not let the servant go, and immediately ordered Qiuyue to find someone to keep an eye on the servant.

?

Thinking of the contents of the note, Xie Liuzheng smiled. "The other party can't hold back and is ready to take action. I just don't know if they are more powerful or we are better."

?

But for the next period of time, Xie Liuzheng did not do anything. She continued to practice calligraphy, water the flowers, or chat with her mother to relieve her boredom.

?

Xie Xiangyu felt that having a daughter was everything, and all her worries disappeared when she saw Xie Liuzheng's smiling face.

?

It is true that before, she was only concerned with making money and giving her daughter a wealthy life, but she never thought about what her daughter really wanted.

?

Now Xie Xiangyu understands that no matter how much money she earns, it is useless. Wasn’t her daughter’s miserable ending in her previous life due to the Xie family’s enormous wealth?

?

"Mother, what are you thinking about? Are you worried about the supply of goods? Are you worried that the person behind the scenes will monopolize all the goods in Penglai in advance?"

?

When Xie Liuzheng saw Xie Xiangyu's frown, she immediately asked and expressed what Xie Xiangyu was thinking.

?

In fact, Xie Xiangyu wanted to give up the business, but after all, she had built it bit by bit, and she couldn't accept giving it up just like that.

?

But Xie Xiangyu also figured it out. If going to Penglai still doesn't work this time, she will try to give up her business and return to her family.

?

So in response to her daughter's concern, Xie Xiangyu said frankly, "I'm not worried about the business, I just feel a little guilty about you. From childhood to adulthood, I spent too little time with you."

?

Facing Xie Xiangyu's self-blame, Xie Liuzheng smiled and said, "Mother, what you said is not right! If you hadn't worked hard outside, how could you have given me a rich life? As for companionship, I have grown up now, and it is my turn to accompany mother."

?

The mother and daughter hugged each other tightly.

?

Xie Xiangyu was deeply moved.

?

Afterwards they chatted and ate together until late at night, when Xie Liuzheng reluctantly returned to her room to rest.

?

But she couldn't fall asleep for a while, so she just sat there and stared at the seaside scenery outside the window.

?

Suddenly the boat shook, and the shaking was very obvious. Xie Liuzheng hurriedly sent someone to ask the boatman what was going on.

?

The boatman replied, "A small fishing boat accidentally hit us, but it's nothing serious."

?

Xie Liuzheng soon saw the small fishing boat. There were three or four fishermen on the boat, who seemed to be fishermen from nearby.

?

"Can you catch any fish when you go fishing at night?"

?

Xie Liuzheng heard his boatman asking the other party, and the other party replied, "You can catch fish at night!"

?

Then they turned around and pulled aside to let the Xie family's boat go first.

?

Just as he passed by them, Xie Liuzheng glanced at the fishermen and found that one person seemed to be missing.

?

"Are you guys fishing now? I noticed one person is missing."

?

The fishermen did not answer, but lowered their heads to sort out their fishing nets.
