Several years have passed.
They were all no longer the same as they used to be, teenagers who have nothing and could only work hard to pave their own way.
Long Qian Xing is already in his mid twenties and Lin Yuan was already 30 years old. They were no longer that young and had already made a name for themselves in their respective fields. One was a famous general and the other was a famous merchant.
They have their own forces, connection, and many others that had been built over the years. As a merchant, one of the most important thing for Lin Yuan was naturally connections.
He had made many of them over the years when he was working and traveling all across various kingdoms. Now that the kingdoms were slowly being unified, the travel has also bee easier for Lin Yuan.
For him, Fei Yang Kingdom unifying the land was actually beneficial.
But Lin Yuan also didn't dare to take a side lightly.
A merchant only recognized money in their hands and would not be wiling to recognize other things. Because if they were to take sides rashly, they might be involved in various other things.
If it was necessary, Lin Yuan would take a side.
But if it was possible, he only wanted to develop stably and earn a lot of money in the middle. In this way, he would not choose to pick a side and would earn whoever money was easier and safer.
"I see." Long Qian Xing was not surprised that Lin Yuan didn't want to tell him. The two of them were not that close anyway and they were only using each other to a certain extent. Even if they were friends, business and private matters should be kept separately.
"Do you think this cooperation is possible?" Lin Yuan asked again.
"Talk to me about the terms first," Long Qian Xing said, not in a hurry.
In terms of business, was he that much worse than Lin Yuan? He had also his experience in the past even if it was not the best.
"Yes!"
...
The negotiation took a long time.
During this time, Nan Hua was staying beside Long Qian Xing, preparing the tea for the two people in front of her. To be honest, she barely understood anything from the conversation between the two of them.
After all, these two people were talking about business, which was a type of knowledge Nan Hua was not too familiar with.
Even if she wanted to, she didn't really know many things.
So she simply practiced her tea skills while listening to their conversation. Even if she didn't understand, it didn't mean she couldn't listen in.
"This price is acceptable now." Long Qian Xing nodded in the end.
Lin Yuan's price was not the cheapest, but he could ensure the quality and in a large amount. The officials who came with Long Qian Xing were already distressed because they lacked various materials to rebuild the walls and many others.
The problem is, they really didn't dare to e to Long Qian Xing and plaint to him.
Who made Long Qian Xing had the biggest fist?
They were distressed when they saw the broken walls, but they also knew that these walls would not last long. If they truly want to build this city to be Fei Yang Kingdom's Capital City, they would have to work much harder than before.
Long Qian Xing did plan for the walls to be destroyed, but he also knew that he would have to help repairing.
Securing a profitable deals for them should be good.
"You won't be disappointed, Young Master." Lin Yuan laughed happily.
He would be raking in money soon.
Even though the profit was not the highest, but the large amount of resources that he needed to send meant that he would be able to earn a lot of money in the end. This was good enough for Lin Yuan.
"Alright, is there anything else?" Long Qian Xing asked after they had finished their discussion.
Lin Yuan saw that Long Qian Xing wanted to kick him out and he smiled. He knew very well that Long Qian Xing would definitely want to spend more time with his wife, so he consciously stood up and said, "No, thank you very much, Young Master Long."
"You may go now."
Lin Yuan nodded and turned around to leave.
Nan Hua watched Lin Yuan's back and then turned to look at Long Qian Xing. "How's his business in other cities?"
"Pretty good from what I heard. Moreover, he had the reputation and he will not cheat his customers," Long Qian Xing said calmly. "This should help those old foggies with their work."
Nan Hua nodded.
The problem of resources would be solved soon, so there was no need for them to worry about it anymore.
"Now that it's over, how about if you e here, my wife?" Long Qian Xing reached out his hand and lightly pulled Nan Hua closer. The faint smell of tea came out from Nan Hua's hand.
She has been meddling with the tea for the past few incense stick of time.
But the smell was not a bad smell and instead made Long Qian Xing felt fortable.
Nan Hua saw Long Qian Xing like this and blinked her eyes. There was a hint of teasing in her eyes. "Do you have any order, Brother Long~."
Hearing the somewhat coquettish tone from Nan Hua, Long Qian Xing's eyes narrowed slightly. "I want to spend more time with my wife~."
"Mmm."
-
A month quietly passed by.
Just when the wall buildings were on a full swing, Great General Wei finally returned. His arrival has been waited by many people.
And this time, Great General Wei didn't only e because of his affairs, but he also gave a shocking piece of news to the group of generals and other manders who were waiting for him to e back.
"His Majesty will e here soon?"
