HRPM – Chapter 175 She is an extraordinary woman (2)

Zhang He spoke with a hint of admiration in his tone: “Master, I have to say, she is an extraordinary woman. In business, we merchants rely on strategy and traditional products to outcompete others, but she always manages to produce goods no one has ever seen before, instantly taking over the market. Others can’t even compete with her even if they try.”

“What are fireworks?” Lan Cangxuan asked curiously.

Back in the Kingdom of Jialan, he had never heard of such a thing as fireworks. But judging from Zhang He’s expression, they must be something remarkable.

“Master, I don’t even know how to describe them to you. The feeling can probably only be called dreamlike. They’re beautiful and lively, yet fleeting at the same time. After watching them, besides being amazed, one also feels a strange sense of melancholy. Master, you should spend one or two taels of silver and experience that dazzling beauty for yourself. I guarantee you won’t be disappointed.”

“Are they really that beautiful? Since it’s something Jin Luoluo developed, I really should take a look.” Lan Cangxuan unconsciously became interested.

“Master, you shouldn’t just watch them. Afterward, I hope you’ll issue us a trade permit so our merchant guild can bring these fireworks back to Jialan to sell. Something this beautiful deserves to be seen by everyone.”

Lan Cangxuan pursed his lips into a smile. “If they truly have that much value, I’ll naturally allow it. But wouldn’t that just let that woman make another enormous fortune? That’s rather frustrating.”

“And what about the saltpeter matter?”

“Sell her a batch according to her request. However, I believe there’s something suspicious behind this. She never needed this much before when producing fireworks. Investigate secretly and find out what exactly she intends to do with the saltpeter.”

Inside the Fengzao Palace where the Empress resided.

Every day after court, Xiao Yu and Xiao Che would first come to pay their respects before returning home.

“Che’er, how is your relationship with Luoluo progressing? Any developments?” the Empress asked gossipily, pressing her son for details.

Recently, the Empress had been deeply concerned about Xiao Che and Jin Luoluo’s marriage.

Ever since learning that Jin Luoluo had run away from the marriage, not only had she not felt angry that her future daughter-in-law had abandoned her son, she had actually become even more intrigued by Jin Luoluo.

The Empress believed that the incident of fleeing the marriage revealed many admirable qualities in Jin Luoluo.
