“You should be grateful that Young Master Zhao is such a devoted son!”

He willingly exchanged 3.5 million liang for his mother’s freedom, showing his dedication to the Zhao Family.

Zhao Mu’s expression darkened even further. His son’s actions had betrayed him terribly. How could this be considered an act of “filial piety”?

Holding the divorce paper, Zhao Shu’s eyes welled up with tears, and even Uncle Qing let out a sigh.

“That’s wonderful!” Zhao Shu carefully put away the divorce paper, forcing a smile. “We are no longer connected to Zhao Mu. Madame Shao, thank you immensely for your help!”

With a bow, Zhao Shu expressed his gratitude.

Qiao Xuan, aware of his discomfort, smiled warmly. “Young Master Zhao, there’s no need for such formality. We are business partners, and it’s only right to support each other.”

“Madame Shao, you’re truly forthright!” Zhao Shu smiled as he presented her with gifts. “Please don’t mention it, Madame Shao. I’m not taking your assistance lightly. Without Officer Shao’s guidance and Madame Shao’s support, I wouldn’t have achieved anything.”

The gifts were substantial, and after discussing it with Shao Yunduan, Qiao Xuan decided not to return them.

Although they were generous, they were not too burdensome for Zhao Shu.

300,000 liang, 26,000 mu in two days, and 12 mu of land.

Qiao Xuan planned to head south every year when Zhao Shu began developing the floral fields in Hangzhou.

Qiao Xuan handed 300,000 liang to Shao Yunduan along with a thousand taels, advising him to use it wisely. In return, Shao Yunduan gave Sun Qian and Sun Bai a letter to be delivered secretly to the Crown Prince.

As trusted confidants of the Crown Prince with their own discreet channels, Shao Yunduan had no worries about their ability to deliver the message.

With a smile, Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan shared a sigh. It was no wonder that the southern business families enjoyed such luxurious lives—they were incredibly wealthy!

Look at Zhao Mu; he managed to amass a few million in a single night.

Qiao Xuan made some calculations and realized she had nearly 500,000 liang but not many properties. She appeared to be quite wealthy herself.

Satisfied with her situation, Qiao Xuan had been in Yangzhou for a few days and was planning to visit Zhao Shu’s floral field in Hangzhou before returning to her home in Yuzhang Heshan County.

Upon hearing Shao Yunduan’s words, they both prepared to leave. Their reunion, even after a brief separation, was a joyous one, and their bond was as strong as ever. They had cherished their time together immensely.

Qiao Xuan couldn’t stop gushing about the beauty of the southern flowers and willows. Shao Yunduan, with a smile, nodded and held her close, reassuring her with affection; he had no intention of making his wife sad and was committed to maintaining his honor.

The two of them spent a couple of days visiting 100,000 mu of mulberry gardens together. Qiao Xuan used her extraordinary abilities to ensure the mulberry leaves in the fields grew better that year, enabling the silkworms to thrive and produce more silk. The silk’s quality was expected to be exceptional.

In this way, she felt less guilty about receiving 40% of the profits. However, she knew that next year, her share would be reduced to 30%.

This 30% would amount to approximately 300,000 liang, which she believed would suffice for any emergencies the Crown Prince might face.
