Translator: Atlas Studios J Editor: Atlas Studios

After the alarm was lifted, Wulie and Fan Zijin reached a deal again, as if they had already become friends. Smiling, Wulie asked, “I wonder how Little General Qi found out that I’m not from Xingyuan Prefecture but from Jingzhao Prefecture?”

Qi Haoran sized him up and asked, “When did I say that you’re from Jingzhao Prefecture? I thought you were from the Jin Kingdom.”

Wulie laughed out loud. “You’re right. I’m from the Jin Kingdom and am currently living in the Jingzhao Prefecture. However, there are also many people like me who have moved over from the Jin Kingdom. How did Little General Qi know that I crossed the border?”

“The Jin people of Xingyuan Prefecture won’t hold something with Karl’s tribe totem engraved on it.”

Only then did Wulie know where their greatest exposure was.

Sabers and horses were the lives of warriors. In their lives, they could change anything, but they would not change their horses and sabers that they were used to. Coincidentally, most of the guards he chose this time were from the Karl tribe.

Wulie laughed and clapped. “Little General Qi, you’re very observant. I’m impressed.” He glanced at the sky outside and smiled. “If not for the fact that I don’t have time, I would definitely drink with the two of you.”

Wulie regretfully expressed that he still had something on and had to leave.

Fan Zijin only pretended to stay for a while before sending him to the door of the private room. Wulie, Fan Zijin, and Qi Haoran cupped their hands and left with their men. Just as they walked out of the other party’s line of sight, Wulie instructed Pidusi in a low voice, “Hurry up and prepare. We’ll leave immediately.”

“Fourth Young Master?”

“Since Qi Haoran could see the totem on our sabers, he must have guessed that we’re not ordinary businessmen.” Those who could afford to use sabers of this level were not ordinary people, not to mention that they were only his guards.

Qi Haoran was not stupid. Since he recognized the totem, he must have thought of this too. What if he made a move to keep him here?

Although Wulie was ambitious and bold, he knew that a gentleman would not stand under a dangerous wall. The most important thing now was to leave Hanzhong Prefecture as soon as possible.

Seeing Wulie and the others leave in a hurry, Fan Zijin turned to ask Qi Haoran, “Did we startle them too much?”

The Fourth Prince, Wulie, laughed happily. “They actually opened the border gate for us over a mere 8,000 taels worth of silk. They’re still too inexperienced.”

Fourth Prince, I’ve asked around in Hanzhong Prefecture. It’s said that Qi Haoran is very short of money and is planning to build a horse farm, so he spends a lot of money. Qi Xiuyuan can’t give him the money he needs.” “A horse farm can’t be built with just 10,000 taels of silver or so. How dare he have such thoughts without 20,000 to 30,000 taels of silver? This Qi Haoran is really bold.”

Pidusi smiled and said, “Fourth Prince, Qi Haoran isn’t so ambitious. He only wants to build a horse farm with 300 to 400 horses.”

Wulie was stunned. “Is that even called a horse farm?”

Horse culture played a big role in the Jin Kingdom culture. Everyone was a soldier, and almost every family had horses. Wulie himself had two horse farms, and there were no less than 10,000 horses in each horse farm. Every year, he relied on these horses to make money by trading with the Great Zhou, West Xia, or his own country’s army.

He could not imagine what a horse farm with only 300 to 400 horses was like.

Pidusi said proudly, “How can the Zhou Dynasty compare to our Great Jin?” Wulie smiled noncommittally and stroked the silk on the table with his fingers.

Since they lack money, well continue this business. These silks are very profitable in our Jin Kingdom. There’s also tea leaves. Find someone to be in charge of this area. Pick someone who’s not only smart and business-sawy, but also knows how to obtain information.”

Pidusi agreed and left.

Wuhe opened up the silk on the table and muttered to himself, “I hope the two young friends won’t disappoint me.”

At this moment, Fan Zijin was also deploying his men. “…Your team is in charge of monitoring them. Remember, every time they come over, you have to monitor them well. At the very least, you can’t let them pass through Hanzhong Prefecture to the south.”

Seeing that Yanmo had taken the men away, Qi Haoran asked, “Why do you have to do business with them when it’s so troublesome? Haven’t you already gotten in touch with a few businessmen from the Jingzhao Prefecture?”

“How is that the same?” Fan Zijin said, “Do they dare to sell us the Jin Kingdom horses and the Jin Kingdom sabers?”

Qi Haoran’s eyes lit up. “That Wu guy dares to sell it?”

Fan Zijin looked at him confidently. Qi Haoran slammed the table and said, “Alright, you mustn’t let him slip away. In the future, I’ll open the door for you to do any business.”

Fan Zijin rolled his eyes and said, “You have a share in this business too. Don’t make it sound like you have nothing to do with this..”
