Everyone hurriedly nodded, "Please explain in detail, Leader Wu." At the moment, there are two suitable paths. The first path is to make a fortune and give Lord Li the silver taels that we need to fill the deficit. In this way, he will naturally let go of the fact that we swapped salt. The second way is to submit to Lord Li, which is indirect

Once we get on the First Prince's ship, there's no need for us to get rich. As for the future, that will depend on the First Prince's intentions.

"Chief Wu also said just now that the situation is still unclear …"

"Yeah, the situation isn't clear. It looks like the first route is more suitable because we will be able to earn some money in the future. Why put a rope around yourself in advance?"

"That's right, we'll choose the first choice."

After listening to the opinions of the crowd, Wu Min had a plan. He was inclined to the first option, "Although we have made our choice now, we can't easily hand over the silver coins to the others. We have to make sure that they won't turn hostile after taking the silver."

"Yes, Boss Wu is indeed thoughtful."

"Since you all want to listen to me, then hold your anger and don't make any mistakes in private. Let's first listen to the news for three days, then we can plan again."

"Alright."

According to Wu Min's plan, it would take some time even if he had to give her the silver. She did not expect that the next day, a rumor about a boat fishing on the Xijiang River would arrive. Fortunately, he had some friends on the canyon and secretly delivered the news to her.

After receiving the message, Wu Min Zhi rushed to the Spring Breeze Garden only to see a group of travel-worn students walking in.

"Where did Mr. Qi go, why is he so tired?"

"Sorry for the ridicule, Leader Wu. Something came up and I went over to suppress it." They said with a smile.

Wu Min's heart skipped a beat. She subconsciously thought of the men and horses fishing on the Xijiang River. Could they have friends with the same name? Or could it be that those people were simply from Li Yuan's sect?

"Mr. Qi, there's something I want to talk to you about."

"Please come in, Leader Wu. How about you allow me to change my clothes before coming here to negotiate?"

"Of course, please leave, Mr. Qi."

Wu Min was lost in her thoughts as she sat in the same room as last time. After a brief moment of absent-mindedness, she had changed her clothes and arrived in front of him.

"Did Chief Wu come to find me this time to think of a way to make up for the loss of money?"

Wu Min became more and more uncertain after hearing their blunt words. "I won't hide it from Mister Qi. I've recently heard rumors that there is a merchant ship fishing on the Xijiang River …"

"Boss Wu, don't worry, the river water is merciless. If the thing in the water isn't in the same place, then there's no need to mention whether or not it's in the water. If you go down there, will you be able to get something? In addition, are the things that you fished out just now sunk? " A smile appeared in their eyes as they looked at Wu Min meaningfully.

Wu Min Zhi smiled along with him. "Mr. Qi, we've thought it through, but there's no way to control it on the surface. We can only ask Mr. Qi to do some hard work and think of a way secretly."

Everyone frowned, looking troubled: "This... "Boss Wu is making things difficult for me."

Wu Min Zhi took out a wad of tea from her pocket. It was huge and thick, and she said, "I know it's extremely difficult to control it. Here is some tea money. Please accept it, Mr. Qi. We will reward you handsomely after this is over."

Qi Ming sighed. "Leader Wu, my master admires your character. He has paid much attention to you in the capital. With your intelligence, you should know more than one way out." Hearing the word "master" from his mouth, Wu Min's heart skipped a beat. She had guessed correctly, this fellow was most likely the First Prince's aide, so she had to be more careful when dealing with him. With a troubled expression, she said, "If it were only me, I would be willing to sacrifice myself for Mister's master.

"Yes, but I represent a lot of salt merchants. I hope Mister can help me explain a bit more."

"That's understandable, but looking at things slowly in the future will be enough." After Qi Ming finished speaking, he put away the purse on the table, "I will do my best to help you. We still need to prepare the two taels of silver to fill the deficit."

"Of course, please rest assured Mr. Qi."

"Yes." They all took a sip from their teacups.

Seeing that the other party was bringing tea to see him off, Wu Min said, "Thank you for your hard work, Sir. Rest early. I will take my leave first."

"Alright, take care, Leader Wu."

"Bye."

Waiting for Wu Min to leave, Wu Min carried her lotus bag all the way out of the Spring Breeze Garden and returned to the Waibao Pavilion.

Liu Chang was waiting in the backyard. When she saw his return, her eyes moved slightly. She then asked, "How did it go?"

All of them took out their pouches, "Lord, everything is going well."

He opened the pouch and took out the silver notes. Each note was worth a thousand silver taels each, a total of one hundred banknotes.

They all praised, "This is just a payment of a hundred thousand taels of silver. Those salt merchants are truly rich."

"You have to be very careful. The more you act at the end, the more careful you have to be. Remember not to reveal the identity of the young miss in order to avoid bringing disaster upon her."

"Yes, this servant understands."

Soon, Wu Min handed the silver taels to him. "Mister Qi, we have brought the silver taels. Can you give us some words from Lord Li?"

"Leader Wu, Lord Li has made arrangements. This is the lord's personal letter. You can directly look at it. From now on, this is a certificate in your hands."

Wu Min's eyes lit up. She took the letter and carefully read the notes and seals. Her heart finally settled down. With this letter, it was like she had proof. She was not afraid of Li Yuan reneging on his promise.

After seeing Wu Min off happily, Qi Ming could not help but laugh, "Hopefully, after Chief Wu learns the truth, he will still be laughing like this."

Upon receiving the banknotes, all of them did not dare to waste any time as they collected the banknotes and delivered them to the man in front of them, "Sir, the banknotes have been received. I wonder what we should do next?" If those salt merchants knew that he did not accept the money, they would definitely tear him apart.

"Miss has made all the necessary arrangements. You can stay here and manage the Treasure Pavilion, so you don't have to worry about the salt merchants. Soon, they won't be able to stand up again."

"Miss's affairs are not something we can speculate about. Just be at ease and do your own things." "Yes, this servant understands."
