Quick Wear: Everyone knows I am a good person

Chapter 1307 The Divorced Merchant's Daughter 29

Shu Xi certainly lived up to Shu Jiao's teachings.

Although she was initially quite flustered when she took over the fleet, she quickly became familiar with its operation after a couple of trips with the fleet and started making a profit.

Although the earnings weren't much, that was in the early stages.

She later bought at half price and sold at double the price, filling her private coffers in less than two years.

"mother,"

On their return trip to the island, Shu Xi handed Shu Jiao a gold bracelet inlaid with five-colored gemstones, saying, "This is a gift I bought for you. It's a specialty of the Ailan royal family!"

Price is secondary.

It's great that the child had this intention.

Shu Jiao took the bracelet and put it on her wrist.

This gold bracelet uses the filigree inlay technique, which involves drawing gold into fine threads, weaving them into a bracelet, and inlaying gemstones of five colors: purple, blue, red, green, and yellow.

It has a kind of gaudy and luxurious aesthetic.

"pretty."

Shu Jiao's eyes curved slightly. "Xi'er has good taste. Mother likes it very much."

"Thank you for taking care of Xi'er on this journey."

After saying that, Shu Jiao looked at Ming Yanning, who was following closely behind, and greeted her gently.

"It should be."

Ming Yanning replied, "I came today to say goodbye to my employer. With the end of the year approaching, I want to go home to visit my parents, and while I'm at it, I'll take Andrei back to see them."

Andri is a foreign businessman with blue eyes and blond hair.

He and Ming Yanning didn't go through any formal procedures, so she could barely be considered an extramarital affair.

When they set sail, they were hit by a storm, and all the cargo was destroyed. He was the only one who was washed ashore by the waves and ended up next to Ming Yanning's ship, where he was taken back.

I don't know how these two fell for each other.

They put everything together once the voyage was over.

That's it. Now Andrei isn't doing business anymore; he just lives in the house Shu Jiao allocated to Ming Yanning, rarely leaving the house, hmm...

She is quite virtuous.

That's all Shu Jiao could say in praise.

"Can your family accept him?"

Shu Jiao asked with some curiosity.

Ming Yanning's family was still somewhat old-fashioned.

"Yes."

Ming Yanning didn't know either, "We can't just leave him outside for now. But with the prosperity of maritime trade in recent years, there have been quite a few foreigners marrying local people in Daxing."

"This is nothing unusual."

When she insisted on going to sea with Shu Jiao, the Ming family disagreed.

As it turned out, her choice was right.

Going back now can be considered a triumphant return.

She had helped Shu Xi a great deal, so Shu Jiao naturally wouldn't treat her unfairly. She not only sent people to protect her all the way, but also sent her boxes full of all sorts of rare and precious treasures.

No sooner had Ming Yanning returned home than she received a pair of Suzhou-embroidered shoes inlaid with South Sea pearls and a sable fur cloak...

Everything she wore, everything she stepped on, and everything she wore on her hands was a new style.

Shu Jiao ah~

Ming Yanning couldn't help but chuckle; he really knew how to "win people's hearts".

No wonder the people in the Shu family's fleet are all so loyal to her, without any disloyalty, and willing to risk their lives when trouble comes.

Ming Yanning set off soon after.

Her departure didn't actually have a significant impact.

Shu Xi has basically been trained.

She might not be an expert on the Four Books and Five Classics, but if you ask her which island or country is famous for what, what the prices are, and how to get the best products...

She could explain these things in great detail.

Three years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Large ships flying the "Shu" flag sailed recklessly across the vast ocean, laden with treasures from various countries.

Upon arrival in a certain country or on a certain island, you will be warmly received.

Meanwhile, the Shu family's stores are also expanding rapidly around the world.

Everyone knows that—

If you want to buy the best products, go to Shujia store.

If others have it, they definitely have it; if others don't have it, they also have it. Moreover, they mainly focus on high-end products and don't compete in the low-end market.

There are countless cargo ships at sea, but the Shu family's ship is easily recognizable.

Look towards the biggest and most luxurious ship, and that's it.

"Brother, why don't we make a move?"

Seeing the two boxes of gems being carried away again, the young pirate who was hiding in the cave looked at his boss with great confusion.

His boss: ...

The frame hit the young man on the head twice.

"idiot!"

The pirate leader muttered angrily, "Don't you even know whose ship that is? You dare to attack? You may not care about your life, but I do."

That's the Shu family's cargo ship!

The last hothead who dared to rob the Shu family's boat is now buried under three-meter-high weeds.

No.

They were swallowed whole by fish, leaving no grass on their graves.

He only wanted money; he didn't want to lose his life.

"But……"

The young man stared longingly at the giant gold money tree being carried out of the box, his eyes gleaming with greed. "Boss, if we pull this off, we can retire and live law-abiding lives!"

"Clap clap."

The pirate leader slapped him twice more on the back of the head, saying, "Well, you'd better be alive to spend it."

The Shu family's fleet is not so easy to provoke.

There have been successful cases before.

Some powerful bandits, by risking their lives, actually managed to rob the Shu family's ship, and they succeeded.

While they were dividing up the looted money in their stronghold, it was destroyed by several cannon shots.

Half of the person was gone.

The rest were either captured and sold into slavery to mine elsewhere, or thrown into the sea to feed the fish.

The entire pirate crew was wiped out, not a single one survived.

The old nest's houses were all blown to smithereens.

I heard that in order to catch all the pirates who made the move, the Shu family dug three feet down into their lair, filled the ant nest with molten iron, and drained the water from the pond.

After a major purge, not only were there no survivors in the lair, but even the turtles in the pond were all killed.

vicious.

Strong.

Extremely vengeful.

Its key capabilities are also extremely strong.

Going against this kind of force is just courting death, isn't it?

And those eighteen countries that attacked Miluo Island before are still selling their goods at half price, losing so much money they're practically spitting blood, yet they don't dare utter a sound.

The young man, upon hearing the pirate leader's words, quickly abandoned his idea.

but!

It's ok.

If they don't dare to rob the Shu family's boat, why don't they dare to rob someone else's?

"Boss, this family looks pretty rich."

The young man's eyes lit up, and he came up with another idea.

The pirate leader looked up, then shook his head. "This won't do either."

"what?"

"This is a ship from Daxing, and it's flying the Shu flag, so it's most likely a ship belonging to the Daxing imperial merchants. If we mess with them, we'll offend Miro Island as well."

"why?"

"That's the symbol of the Shu Clan Chamber of Commerce. Joining the Shu Clan Chamber of Commerce means paying Shu Jiao a huge protection fee every year. If we intercept the goods, Shu Jiao will come knocking on our door to take them back."

They've come knocking on our door, do you think Shu Jiao only steals the goods that others have lost?

That must be impossible!

Therefore, once Shu Jiao arrives, she will definitely ransack the pirates' warehouses, turning all the pirates' savings accumulated over the years into nothing.

What's the difference between this and ransacking someone's home?

She plagiarized openly!

Hey~

Shu Jiao is really good at making money.
