"Does Ping Le mean peace and joy?"
"Yes. The titles of the other imperial sisters were given by my father, but my title was given to me by my brother, the prince."
Su Shi didn't know what he was thinking, his eyes were blurred, and he murmured, "It seems that the prince treats you differently from others."
"So I wonder why?"
Su Shi said silently: "Do you think that book can give you the answer?"
Zhou Jin suddenly raised his head and looked at him. After studying him for a long time, he suddenly said, "Do you know that you are a little bit like the prince brother?"
"Really? Which point?"
"You are all equally lonely."
Su Shi's heart seemed to be pricked by a needle, and Zhou Jin's voice seemed to come from the sky.
"Although Brother Prince's eyes are always as bright as the sun and his smile is as gentle as the spring breeze, I can feel his loneliness every time I stand next to him."
Zhou Jin stared at him: "And standing next to you, I feel the same way."
Su Shi said nothing because he had nothing to say.
Maybe he could make up countless reasons to explain, but his inner feelings couldn't deceive anyone.
"And sister Qin Nan also feels the same way as me."
When Qin Nan was mentioned, Zhou Jin moved a step aside intentionally or unintentionally, widening the distance between them.
Su Shi forced a smile: "I didn't expect you would talk about me behind my back."
"Women will always talk about men when they are together."
"But you are not ordinary women. One is a noble man from Tianhuang, and the other is a talented woman."
Zhou Jin chuckled and said, "But we are also women."
Then her smile faded and she said seriously: "Do you want to know how sister Qin Nan feels about you?"
Su Shi asked back, "Did she complain to you?"
Zhou Jin suddenly lowered his head: "She just can't figure it out."
"Can't figure out what?"
Zhou Jin bit her lips lightly, and after a long time she made up her mind and said, "She said she can feel your love for her, but she can also feel that there seems to be some kind of gap between you."
Su Shi seemed to smile: "Do women like to have random thoughts?"
"Maybe most women like to have random thoughts, but Qin Nan doesn't."
"Maybe I should go back to sleep." Su Shi's face seemed a little tired, and he stretched: "I woke up a little too early today."
"Maybe you should have a good talk with sister Qin Nan at this time."
Su Shi's stretched hand suddenly froze in mid-air.
"Why?"
Zhou Jin couldn't help but sigh: "If sister Qin Nan can't truly enter your heart, her heart will gradually close to you."
"You also said that she is not an ordinary woman, so what she pursues is the true connection between two people and their mutual love."
Su Shi slowly lowered his hand that was frozen in mid-air, and then handed the oil-paper umbrella to Zhou Jin.
"Maybe I should really think about it."
Zhou Jin's expression flashed with panic, and she hurriedly asked: "What are you thinking about?"
Su Shi suddenly smiled, but there was a hint of loneliness in his smile.
"Think about how to deal with Nangong Yu and Liu Zhi tomorrow."
A trace of anger flashed in Zhou Jin's eyes, but then she sighed softly. She knew clearly that Su Shi was thinking about other things, but she could do nothing about him.
No matter who it is, it seems not easy to get into Su's heart and truly understand him.
"Are you going to meet them?"
"They all sent their invitations right under my nose, and I couldn't even turn a blind eye."
"They must have come with the idea of bringing in wine and glassware."
"Obviously, no one would be jealous of these two businesses."
"How are you going to deal with them?"
Su Shi's smile was so bright and warm at the moment, but it also made people feel a little malicious.
"I'm in business, so as long as they can afford the price, I can naturally cooperate."
Zhou Jin couldn't help but be curious: "It seems you have already set the price?"
"Actually, my asking price is not high."
"How high is it?"
"Whether it's wine or glass products, my asking price will only be a little higher than the cost price, as long as I can earn enough for the craftsman's wages."
The oil-paper umbrella suddenly fell from Zhou Jin's hand, but she was unaware because she was so shocked by Su Shi's words that she couldn't think.
Whether it’s wine or glass products, the profits are astonishingly high. Even if Su Shi sells it at 50% off the current selling price, the profit will be more than five times.
And as long as Su Shi said that he could sell it to other shops at a 50% discount, countless merchants would flock to it.
But Zhou Jin never expected that Su Shi would sell it to others at cost price.
No matter how she calculated it, she couldn't settle it.
Su Shi suddenly laughed, and smiled very happily, even dancing a little.
"Tomorrow when I tell them the cost of wine and glass products, Nangong Yu and Liu Zhi will be shocked, and then when I tell them that I can sell them at cost price, their expressions will be wonderful."
Zhou Jin sighed: "Their expressions are so wonderful. If you really sell it to them at cost price, they will do whatever you ask them to do."
"real?"
Zhou Jin asked, "Are you really willing to sell it to them at cost price?"
"real."
Zhou Jin really couldn't understand it and couldn't help but ask: "Why?"
Su Shi sighed: "Do you know how much silver the King of Qi and the King of Zhao have in Qianqiu Zhi?"
Of course Zhou Jin knew that she was managing the accounts of Qianqiu Zhiku.
"More than sixty million taels."
"Of the more than sixty million taels, how much do those aristocratic families account for?"
"At least fifty million taels."
“Where are Nangong and the Liu family?”
Zhou Jin thought for a while: "Six million seven hundred and thirty thousand taels."
"Have you ever thought about a question?"
"what is the problem?"
"If King Qi and King Zhao join forces to deal with us, what is the first thing they will do?"
Zhou Jin suddenly woke up: "They will definitely attack Qianqiu Zhiku."
Su Shi nodded and said, "Yes, when they know the horror of capital, they will definitely find a way to deal with us, and the easiest way is to cut off our source of capital."
Zhou Jin's face also became serious: "Even if you want to withdraw it before it has been deposited for a year, the liquidated damages given are not much. This liquidated damages is just a drop in the bucket for them."
"So we must find a way to keep the money in the Dongyuan Quality Library."
"How to stay?"
Su Shi smiled and said, "Tomorrow is an opportunity."
Zhou Jin still didn't understand.
Su Shi explained: "If you were Nangong Yu and Liu Zhi, and heard that I sold you wine and glass products at cost price, would you accept it?"
"It's like gold ingots falling from the sky. It's such a huge bargain. They're just going to be overjoyed."
"When they think they've taken advantage of me, it's my turn."
