HRPM – Chapter 174 She is an extraordinary woman (1)

Jin Luoluo was furious. Deep down, this chauvinistic pig simply looked down on women.

The male superiority and female inferiority of this era were far too severe. A woman couldn’t even act strong for a moment — as if women were naturally easy to bully.

“Stop looking down on people. Women are not accessories to men. Men can be strong, and women can be strong too. Just wait and see — one day, you won’t dare underestimate me, Jin Luoluo.”

Inside a private room.

The green-eyed man, Lan Cangxuan, was discussing matters with a group of people.

“Has anything major happened in the merchant guild recently?”

“Master, nothing particularly serious. Our Jialan Kingdom’s merchant guild has always maintained a good reputation in the Chu Yun Kingdom, and the authorities treat us favorably as well. Basically, doing business in the Chu Yun Kingdom hasn’t faced many obstacles.”

The guild leader, Zhang He, answered respectfully.

“However, recently the richest woman in the world, Jin Luoluo, approached the mineral merchants in our guild requesting a large shipment of saltpeter. Since the Chu Yun Kingdom lacks this kind of mineral resource, she sought help from our guild.”

A faint glimmer flickered in Lan Cangxuan’s eyes. “You mean that Jin Luoluo downstairs just now?”

“Yes, the very girl who was talking back to you earlier, Master. Don’t be fooled by her fiery and playful personality — when it comes to business, she can cheat people dry without mercy. I’ve traveled in commerce for decades and seen countless cunning merchants, yet I’ve never seen such an intelligent woman with endless schemes.”

Hearing Zhang He praise her like this, Lan Cangxuan couldn’t help recalling that arrogant young girl.

Even with bandages wrapped around her limbs, she was still overflowing with confidence, her eyes sparkling with spirit. That alone made her more than extraordinary.

“What does she want so much saltpeter for?” For some reason, he felt there was something suspicious about this deal.

“I heard it’s for making fireworks. But with that much saltpeter, is she planning to let the people of the Chu Yun Kingdom set off fireworks every day? Still, the fireworks she produces are truly beautiful. In the past, the night sky was always silent and dim, but now brilliant flowers bloom across the heavens.”

There was a hint of admiration in Zhang He’s tone.

“Master, I must admit, she’s a remarkable woman. We merchants usually rely on skillful tactics and traditional products to outcompete others, but she always manages to produce goods no one has ever seen before, instantly conquering the market. Others can’t compete with her even if they want to.”
