Flying Clouds in Another World

Chapter 213: New Branches of Cloud Willow

Seeing Liu Feiyun put away his playful smile and become serious for once, Liu Qianqian also looked serious and asked, "But our family already has the Green Willow Chamber of Commerce. Isn't it superfluous for you to do this?"

"Not really! Because I plan! When I get older and hand over the Green Willow Chamber of Commerce to me, I will split it up!"

"What? You want to split up the Green Willow Chamber of Commerce! This is my life's work! I will be heartbroken! You can't do this!"

"Don't worry! I know what I am doing! When the time comes, I will divide the Green Willow Chamber of Commerce into two parts: civilian and military. For example, industries such as crystal mines, iron mines, weapons, and vehicles and ships are classified as military, and I will naturally not let go! As for the civilian industries such as Lin Paper, Yannan Shao, and Beihuang Wolf Hair, I will give them to you as dowry! I have also discussed this matter with my parents! Dad will naturally not care about such financial matters! And my mother said that as long as I can make Yunliu Chamber of Commerce as big as the Green Willow Chamber of Commerce! She has no objection!"

Liu Qianqian was shocked. She really didn't expect Liu Feiyun to say such a thing.

Because in the eyes of many nobles and family heads, women in the family are just tools to maintain the interests of the family and will only be used to wait for a price. If a woman wants to share the family property, forget it. It is good enough to give you a dowry of property that matches your status.

Although Liu Qianqian has been involved in the management of the Green Willow Chamber of Commerce for many years, she does not have ownership rights. She is just a special manager, not the owner. Logically speaking, even if she gets married in the future, she will not be able to take away any assets of the Green Willow Chamber of Commerce.

However, Liu Feiyun told her that he would give her part of the Green Willow Chamber of Commerce's assets. How could she not be shocked?

Although it was only the civilian portion of the Green Chamber of Commerce, it was still a huge fortune. Moreover, it was not an egg that would disappear once eaten, but a hen that could lay golden eggs!

"Little brother! You..."

"Me! What's wrong with me! Big sister, you may say I'm stupid and talking nonsense again! You can't refuse! Besides, I can still make a lot of money without these civilian industries! Now, you should think carefully about choosing a place for my Yunliu Trading Company! Who knows, my Yunliu Trading Company will become your competitor in the future! Haha! Don't become my defeated opponent then!"

Liu Qianqian certainly knew the character and temper of her younger brother, and she couldn't help but be touched! At the same time, she couldn't help but think more deeply in other directions: a cunning rabbit has three burrows, perhaps, this is also the way mother and younger brother are preparing for the Liu family to take precautions!

So, she sighed, nodded and said, "Oh! It's up to you! Since you are willing to give it to me, why should I be embarrassed to refuse it? Just treat it as a gift from you to me! As for you living in your store, it doesn't matter. Anyway, grandpa will definitely be unhappy if you live here. If you live at grandpa's place, I will not be happy either. Since you are willing to find a place to live by yourself, it's up to you. But you have to be careful outside. Although Changluo City is under the feet of the emperor, it is not peaceful! It's better to be safe than sorry! Dad and Mom are really stupid. You came to Changluo alone and didn't send a cultivator!"

"Well! Maybe the two elders want to continue to train me!"

Although Changluo City has a large population, it covers a vast area. The southern city alone is 2,000 square miles (500 square kilometers). There are prosperous areas on both sides of the east-west and north-south roads, as well as undeveloped areas in the corners, or dilapidated and abandoned areas. As for properties that need to be sold for various reasons, there are always some every day.

Liu Feiyun didn't have high requirements for the property he wanted to buy, as long as it was big enough and cheap enough. As for whether the location was in a prosperous place, he didn't consider it too much!

Liu Qianqian had lived in Changluo City for many years, so she was able to find a reliable real estate agent. Under the guidance of the agent, the brother and sister looked at dozens of properties in one day.

Three miles away from Cuiliu Pavilion, Liu Feiyun took a fancy to a property close to Luo River.

This is an unfinished house, and the owner is a sea merchant. He originally wanted to use this house as his base for his march into Changluo, but later his ship was wrecked and he was in urgent need of working capital, so he had no choice but to sell it to solve the urgent problem.

"My lord, you have seen it all! This property is large enough, and there is a stream flowing into the Luo River, which can create a Jiangnan garden with small bridges and flowing water. The warehouse is large enough and close to the water source. As long as a set of fire-proof water hoses are built, there will be no fire hazards. The building facing the street is seven feet high, which is very suitable for selling goods or opening a restaurant or inn! The most important thing is that the area is too large! I have only developed less than 30%! If your industry goes further in the future, you can add more buildings! My lord! This property is absolutely the most suitable for you!

The person who spoke was not a broker, but a sea merchant. He wished he could sell his property immediately to get money to save his fleet.

"Not bad, not bad! I am very satisfied with this property! But the price! You set it a bit too high!"

"Sir, this is not a high price. If I wasn't in urgent need of money, I wouldn't sell it to you! I think you are really sincere about buying it. How about this! I will reduce it by another half! How about this! This price is nearly half of the normal price!"

"Well... Actually, what you said is not wrong! And the dental company guarantees it! I am relieved! But the price..."

“It really can’t get any lower!”

"Let's put it this way! I'll do what you say about the price! But! I have one condition!"

"What are the conditions? Please tell me, sir!"

"I heard that you need to buy new ships to replenish your fleet! How about this! As long as you are willing to purchase ten ships from my Liu family, our deal will be done!"

"The Liu family!? Seagoing ships!? If your family can also build ships, or have existing ships that are suitable for sea transportation! I would love it! But if this ship cannot..."

"If it is not suitable for sea transportation, my Liu family will not force you! In this case, we can sign the sales contract! I plan to move in today!"

"This is the best! This is the best!"

The sea merchants were overjoyed.

In the evening, a small plaque with the words "Yunliu Trading Company" that had been prepared long ago was hung up, but it did not attract much attention from passers-by.

"Yunliu Trading Company!? Ah! What a great name! Here, I would like to congratulate you in advance! I wish you can achieve great success in Changluo City as soon as possible!"

The sea merchants were also very happy. The real estate was sold and the ships seemed to have a partial settlement! This saved them from bankruptcy! They even had a chance to start over!

"Congratulations! Hahaha! Our Yunliu Trading Company has finally established a new branch in this imperial capital."

Liu Feiyun smiled.
