Chapter 1314: Talk About Business
Editor: Henyee Translations
Talents like these were either nurtured by various businesses from a young age or cultivated through individual efforts.
Qiao Xuan had a clear understanding: she wouldn’t involve herself in things she didn’t comprehend, and Shao Yunduan was even more reserved. During discussions with Zhao Shu, he sat quietly by Qiao Xuan’s side, not interrupting.
Initially, Zhao Shu felt uneasy, but he grew accustomed to it over time.
Qiao Xuan paid close attention and occasionally offered one or two suggestions. Her perspective differed from that of Zhao Shu and Uncle Qing, often enlightening them like a window into their minds.
Zhao Shu and Uncle Qing were deeply impressed. It was no wonder that, besides Madame Shao, Mr. Shao didn’t see anyone else of comparable stature in the entire empire.
Regarding the perfume’s price, Qiao Xuan had no strong opinion, but she suggested that the prices for different fragrances should vary, all converging around 100 taels.
Zhao Shu agreed and promised to discuss it further upon returning to Hangzhou. Price differences ranged from 12 to 34 taels.
In any case, this product was precious, and the specific price mattered less.
Following that, Zhao Shu shared some news about the Zhao Family. After Zhao Mu’s second marriage, the Zhao Family had become livelier, much to his satisfaction.
Qiao Xuan also expressed her happiness for him, while advising caution before taking any impulsive actions. Zhao Shu was genuinely grateful.
However, he remained resolute in his quest to uncover the truth behind his mother’s accidental death, regardless of the difficulties he might encounter.
Little did they know that Ms. Qin and Zhao Mu’s concubines would soon wreak havoc on the Zhao Family, catching them all off guard.
This time, Zhao Shu’s return was noticeably more relaxed, casual, and indifferent than before.
Later, Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan discussed and extended an invitation to Zhao Shu to join them for a meal.
Qiao Xuan decided to take charge of cooking the food herself. The potatoes in her garden were ripening, and she could begin harvesting them soon. It seemed like the perfect time to dig up some and prepare a meal.
On that day, Qiao Xuan brought Lixia and Liqiu to the field.
Initially, the strawberry patch had covered just over four acres, but it had expanded significantly due to the continuous growth of stems and vines. The original ridge was now even denser and more lush.
This year, Qiao Xuan had applied her extraordinary abilities to cultivate an additional 20 mu of land for planting. While each application wasn’t substantial, it was enough to keep the strawberries thriving. It appeared that there wouldn’t be any issues when it was time to transplant them.
Indeed, they would need to keep distributing the seedlings when the time came!
However, Qiao Xuan knew she had to be careful with her superpowers. She couldn’t use them excessively; otherwise, it might appear quite absurd.
For some reason, news had spread about her giving strawberry seedlings to the East Palace. The stewards of the Second Prince and the Third Prince had come to her door to express their interest. These individuals were rather arrogant. They clearly wanted a favor but tried to appear indifferent, as if they were merely asking out of curiosity. Their attitude was something Qiao Xuan found disdainful.
Nonetheless, the strawberry seedlings weren’t particularly rare to her. Since they had dropped hints by coming to her, she saw no reason to refuse their requests.
