I just reached the maximum level, and you want me to be a puppet emperor?

Chapter 169 You must inherit the fine traditions of our Jiang family! (Please subscribe and vote)

Jiang Rong was busy all day before returning to the Jiang family.

Early this morning, he was running around for problems related to his own business, and asked some people he had a good relationship with in the past to see if they had any clues about the Sun family's raw materials.

Or whether we can find a new supplier of raw materials. Now that we have fallen out with the Sun family, even if we get ten times the compensation, it will be impossible for them to continue to supply us in the future. Therefore, finding a new supplier is very important.

But problems followed. Local suppliers either said they were out of stock or had already signed contracts with other families, or the suppliers were too small and could not provide enough silk raw materials.

Especially when I find those former suitors and want them to help me, I am faced with all kinds of helplessness and rejection.

Jiang Rong's beauty was naturally well-known in Shanghe City. She was the eldest daughter of a business family, with a stunning face and a beautiful figure.

No matter which aspect, it can make the young men in Shanghe City yearn for it.

There is an endless stream of people pursuing her.

Now it was as if someone was secretly controlling things. Those former suitors, who were the heirs of the major families, began to say that they could not help, citing various reasons.

Jiang Rong didn't think it was a big deal, after all, the other party didn't owe her anything.

After asking around, Jiang Rong went to find the person in charge of the Chamber of Commerce next door, intending to purchase the raw materials at a high price. Even if she made less profit, it was better than losing money.

However, the person in charge of the neighboring Chamber of Commerce asked for a huge amount of money. If Jiang Rong wanted to get the raw materials from them, plus the shipping costs, the Chamber of Commerce protection system, etc., Jiang Rong would have to pay four times the price to buy the raw materials.

And even if they bought it, they could only provide part of it, not all that the Jiang family needed.

Jiang Rong calculated that if they spent four times as much, the Jiang family would be working for nothing and would not make any money.

But the person in charge of the neighboring chamber of commerce is also right. This is the protection system of different chambers of commerce.

Jiang Rong gritted her teeth and paid the deposit first, trying to find a way to maintain the supply.

After finishing all these, it was already afternoon.

She was exhausted from running around today.

I was sitting in the store drinking tea and taking a rest, when at this moment, Lin Mo, the son of luck, appeared and brought good news.

Lin Mo received the task from Jiang Rong yesterday afternoon and immediately went to the Sun family to investigate.

The purpose is to investigate whether there is any loss of raw materials that the Sun family needs to provide.

After the raw materials are collected, they must be stored in warehouses.

In order to avoid providing the raw materials to the Jiang family, the Sun family would definitely transfer the raw materials away and make up an excuse that they could not provide them.

The son of luck is strong. The Sun family had hidden very well, but they were still found by Lin Mo.

The Sun family’s raw materials are hidden in the warehouse of Zhang Wanshan, the president of the Chamber of Commerce.

Lin Mo even brought back some samples of raw materials to prove that what he said was true.

To be on the safe side, Jiang Rong followed Lin Mo to the Zhang family's warehouse to take a look. Sure enough, there were a lot of silk raw materials, which Jiang Rong could not have mistaken.

Everything we see before our eyes proves that the Sun family and the Zhang family are colluding to target the Jiang family.

At that time, Jiang Rong expressed her gratitude to Lin Mo and promised that once the incident was over, she would immediately arrange for Lin Mo to become the housekeeper of the Jiang Mansion.

Lin Mo was very happy in his heart, and felt that Jiang Rong looked at him with admiration, but he still said calmly: "Miss, these are all trivial matters. If you need anything in the future, just come to me."

Lin Mo is a very talented person, and he knows that the Jiang family is in crisis.

As long as I use a little trick, I will be able to bring the Jiang family back to life.

Lin Mo still has many hidden abilities that have not been revealed.

The reason why he can make money is actually related to the opportunities he gets.

The dual cultivation technique that Lin Mo practiced was found in a cave where the remnants of the previous dynasty died.

That remnant of the previous dynasty is no ordinary person, and he has many unknown "treasures" on him.

He escaped from the imperial capital, carrying with him many things that were only available in the palace of the previous dynasty and were not circulated among the people.

The ones used in the palace were naturally very good. Lin Mo just analyzed a so-called "treasure" a little bit, found a noble family to invest in its production, and made a lot of money.

After he has analyzed all the "treasures" carried by the remnants of the previous dynasty, he will slowly show these things to Jiang Rong. With Jiang Rong's ability, she will naturally know how valuable these things are after being mass-produced.

Then Jiang Rong would regard him as a savior.

The entire Jiang family will become glorious again because of the treasures he analyzed.

By then, not to mention the suppression from the Chamber of Commerce, the Chamber of Commerce will probably even ask the Jiang family for food.

Thinking of this, Lin Mo felt that the entire Jiang family was within his grasp.

However, the most urgent task now is to expose the conspiracy between the Sun family and the Zhang family.

Jiang Rong felt that if she told this matter to the Chamber of Commerce, the Sun family and the Zhang family would definitely deny it, because they controlled the Chamber of Commerce.

With the current capabilities of the Jiang family, they are simply unable to compete with these two families.

So we have to find a way to make this matter bigger, report it to a higher authority, and find someone with more power to make the decision.

There are three people with great power in Shanghe City, namely the prefect, the city supervisor, and the city lord.

The prefect is responsible for city defense, the city supervisor is responsible for public security, and the city manager is in charge of more comprehensive responsibilities. Jiang Rong also feels that the city lord Ding Tianming is relatively friendly.

She took Lin Mo to the City Lord's Mansion and told Ding Tianming about the matter.

When Ding Tianming heard that it was someone from the Jiang family who came, he thought it was Xie Minjun, but it turned out to be Jiang Rong and a servant from the Jiang mansion.

He asked Jiang Rong what was going on, and Jiang Rong told him everything that Lin Mo had discovered, and said that she had seen it with her own eyes.

This made Ding Tianming feel a little surprised, because Jiang Rong didn't know that he and Zhang Wanshan were in the same group.

Ding Tianming was thinking at the time: These two guys are really incompetent. They even let a servant find the place where the hidden things were. Fortunately, Jiang Rong reported it to me, otherwise it would be a bad ending.

Since they are in the same group, Ding Tianming will naturally protect the Zhang and Sun families. Otherwise, if the two families turn against them and tell the truth, they will expose Ding Tianming.

But Ding Tianming said verbally: "Don't worry, leave this matter to me. If his two families really did this, I will give you justice."

Jiang Rong said excitedly: "Then I'll trouble the city lord."

Ding Tianming told Jiang Rong to go back and wait. He would announce the results of the investigation into this matter in the Chamber of Commerce's parliament hall tomorrow. He would even find many families to testify together, leaving the people in the Chamber of Commerce with no room for excuses and making the Zhang and Sun families pay the price.

Jiang Rong expressed her gratitude and left the City Lord's Mansion with Lin Mo.

Jiang Rong felt that the matter had come to an end and she just had to wait for good news tomorrow.

Now all we have to do is deal with our mother's troubles and everything will be fine.

Lin Mo felt that there was something wrong with Ding Tianming.

Normally, Ding Tianming should send people to deal with it now and catch them in the act so that the two major families cannot make excuses.

It sounds fair to wait until tomorrow to deal with it, but there are a lot of variables.

Seeing that Jiang Rong trusted Ding Tianming very much, Lin Mo didn't say anything for the time being. After separating from Jiang Rong, he returned to the place where the silk raw materials were found and kept an eye on them.

Sure enough, that night, someone secretly took away the raw materials.

Lin Mo knew that Ding Tianming should be in cahoots with the Chamber of Commerce.

Saying that it will be resolved at the Chamber of Commerce tomorrow is actually just an excuse.

The purpose is to hold a grand public event tomorrow to continue to attack the Jiang family and force them into a desperate situation.

Thinking of this, Lin Mo smiled.

He felt that this result was great. The more the Jiang family fell into despair and the more they were targeted, the more they needed a man to help. And in Lin Mo's opinion, this man was him.

After all, Lin Mo was a local in Shanghe City, so he naturally knew that Zhang Shanhe’s background was that of a prefect.

So the only solution now is to tell the city supervisor Lin Yue'e who came from the imperial capital about this news tomorrow morning.

It is said that Lin Yue'e from the imperial capital is a close confidant of the emperor. It is impossible for a person of this level to be in cahoots with Ding Tianming.

So tomorrow, Ding Tian will bring all the major families to put pressure on Jiang Rong in the Chamber of Commerce. Jiang Rong will be in a desperate situation, and he will bring the City Supervisor to the rescue and tell the truth.

So in Jiang Rong's eyes, she is the savior.

By then, the relationship between him and Jiang Rong will be closer.

As long as they work hard for a period of time, the two will be able to establish a relationship.

This period of time is very long, perhaps half a year, or perhaps several years.

But for Jiang Rong, he was willing to wait.

Because Lin Mo knew that Jiang Rong was not the kind of woman who would just go with the flow. Even if she had a crush on him, she couldn't just give it to him for free.

When it comes to picking up girls, you have to take your time. You can’t get the best deal in a hurry.

Lin Mo sometimes feels that his luck is really against the will of heaven. No matter what crisis it is, there is a solution and he can turn misfortune into fortune.

As long as I help the Jiang family, there will be no problem for the Jiang family.

After preparing all this, Lin Mo returned to the resting place, began to recall Jiang Rong's appearance in his mind, and started to have unrealistic fantasies.

At this time, Lin Mo obviously had no idea what kind of situation the person of his dreams was facing.

After parting with Lin Mo, Jiang Rong returned to the Jiang family.

But as soon as she came back, Xie Minjun, who was waiting near the door, grabbed Jiang Rong's hand.

Jiang Rong thought her mother was worried about her, so she said, "It's okay, mother. I have already dealt with the Chamber of Commerce's affairs."

The beautiful woman Xie Minjun can now understand why Jiang Ningyue didn't care at all when she mentioned the various troubles of the Jiang family. So this is how it felt.

As for things like the Chamber of Commerce, that's something that only people at their level are more afraid of and worried about.

But what rank is Li Chen?
He can be said to be truly unique in the Tiance Dynasty.

As long as you serve Li Chen well, there is no need to worry about this.

Li Chen is undoubtedly the most powerful and sturdiest backer of this country.

The beautiful woman Xie Minjun took her daughter's hand and said seriously, "Daughter, let's not talk about this for now. His Majesty is a guest in our Jiang Mansion. You should change into nice clothes to meet him."

These sudden words surprised Jiang Rong so much that she couldn't speak.

What? The emperor is actually in his own home!
It turned out that the guest from the imperial capital was the emperor of the time.

Jiang Rong's aunt and her mother specially arranged this opportunity for Li Chen to meet Jiang Rong, otherwise she would not be able to meet her.

Jiang Rong had never seen the emperor, so naturally she had only heard all the negative news about the emperor that were spread among the people, and had an unbearable impression of the emperor in her mind.

But he is the emperor after all, so it is only right for him to dress more formally.

When changing clothes, Jiang Rong couldn't understand why her mother had too little fabric to wear these clothes for her.

Even prostitutes don’t dress so exaggeratedly!

Xie Minjun said, you are still young and don’t understand many things, this is the best outfit to meet the emperor.

Jiang Rong tended to listen to her mother, and since it was her own home, she just put on the clothes and went out.

I came to the hall and looked around, feeling at a loss for a moment.

Where is the emperor?
Wait, could the emperor be this young man who is about the same age as me but incredibly handsome?
Seeing her daughter still standing there stupidly, Xie Minjun said anxiously, "Your Majesty, please don't blame me. My daughter is a country girl who has never seen the world."

With her mother's reminder, Jiang Rong realized that the person sitting in the main seat in the hall was the emperor, so she immediately knelt down and paid her respects to His Majesty.

It was on the fourth day after Li Chen arrived at the Jiang family that he met Jiang Rong, who was recommended by several other women.

Especially from this morning to afternoon, Jiang Rong's mother kept telling Li Chen how good her daughter was.

She must let Li Chen see her daughter no matter what.

When Li Chen heard the name Jiang Rong and then saw her, he felt that she was worthy of the name.

Li Chen thought it was a container with a large capacity, but it is the same, it does have a certain capacity.

Moreover, Jiang Rong also inherited her mother's excellent genes, which is big.

If the other three women in the Jiang family hadn't repeatedly emphasized to Li Chen that Jiang Rong was still a virgin, Li Chen might not have thought she was one at first sight.

It seems that the Jiang family is also a place of good feng shui.

Seeing Jiang Rong's appearance and figure, Li Chen also looked forward to what her sister Jiang Mo would look like.

It's not that Li Chen is greedy, the problem is that the woman from your Jiang family recommended it, and it's hard to refuse such kindness.

"Stand up." Li Chen's voice was very steady, which made Jiang Rong a little scared.

She looked even more nervous than Chu Ruoyan when she first saw Li Chen.

Chu Ruoyan was from the imperial capital after all and had met many high-ranking officials. Jiang Rong had never seen any high-ranking officials before, and the emperor was just a legend to her.

"Don't be nervous. I came to Shanghe City this time just for a private visit to follow the footsteps of the late emperor." Li Chen casually brought up a topic.

"It is an honor for our Jiang family that Your Majesty visits us." Jiang Rong also spoke some humble topics.

But gradually, she found that all the other women in the hall had left, leaving only her and Li Chen.

In fact, it was other women who gave her and Li Chen the opportunity to be alone and show themselves.

When facing this young woman, Li Chen still used the old method and asked her about her hobbies.

If it were someone else, Jiang Rong would definitely say that she didn't have any hobbies and was busy managing the family business.

Since her father passed away, she has been burdened with a lot of responsibilities and has no mood to talk about hobbies.

But after Li Chen said this, Jiang Rong put down her burden a little and began to talk about her love for musical instruments. Now she has quite a few musical instruments in her room.

Especially when the "luxury supercar" of the Holy Tiger was mentioned, Jiang Rong wanted to try it out and said, "Your Majesty, my sister likes powerful spiritual pets, especially mounts."

After listening to this, Li Chen nodded. It was indeed useful information. I will try it when your sister comes.

Shenghu never imagined that a holy beast as powerful as him was just Li Chen's tool to pick up girls.

It’s about time, so Li Chen goes back to rest.

Jiang Rong also respectfully saw Li Chen off, and this time it was from the bottom of her heart.

In her opinion, this emperor, who was of the same age as her, was not as difficult to get along with as she had imagined, and it was extremely pleasant to chat with him.

At the beginning, when the other women left and she was alone with Li Chen, she was a little scared and wanted to escape as soon as possible.

Now it seems that she wants to stay with Li Chen for a while longer.

The most important thing is that Li Chen is really handsome!

That look, that temperament, made Jiang Rong drool.

When Jiang Rong returned to the room, Xie Minjun walked in.

"Mom, let me tell you, His Majesty is really capable."

Jiang Rong talked about a lot of topics about Li Chen, all of which were mentioned by Li Chen when he was chatting with her just now.

Xie Minjun gently stroked her daughter's head. Judging from her daughter's expression, she probably had a good impression of the emperor.

As someone who has experienced this, and even as a woman, Xie Minjun understands it very well.

Because with Li Chen's conditions, which woman would not be moved?

The reason why Xie Minjun was so proactive in serving today was because she liked it.

The mother and daughter chatted for a while, and Xie Minjun suddenly changed the subject and asked, "Daughter, do you want to be a royal concubine?"

This one sentence made Jiang Rong's face turn red. The topic changed too quickly and she didn't know how to answer for a moment.

After a long silence, Jiang Rong finally managed to utter, "Mother, this is the first time that His Majesty and I have met."

Xie Minjun said earnestly, "How many times do you want to see him? Can you see His Majesty whenever you want? He just came to Shanghe City for something and is staying at Jiang's house temporarily. He might leave tomorrow. Once he returns to the imperial capital, you won't be able to see him again."

Jiang Rong's mother's words were telling Jiang Rong to be clear about her own and Li Chen's identities and status.

"But."

"But what? He is His Majesty. Do you know how many people can't wait for a chance?"

Xie Minjun was anxious. My daughter, you don’t know how hard your mother worked today to get you this opportunity to sleep with her.

If His Majesty really likes you, you will be very successful in the future.

Seeing that her daughter was a little hesitant, Xie Minjun tried to persuade her earnestly, saying that the modesty that her mother taught her before was for ordinary men to see. This man is His Majesty, not an ordinary man.

Look at how handsome His Majesty is, how high his status is, and with that kind of temperament. You should feel honored that he can even look at you. Now that you have the opportunity, you don’t cherish it. If you miss this opportunity, you will never have it again.

Your second aunt was valued by the late emperor and enjoyed all the wealth and glory.

Now you have to carry on our family's fine traditions.

Think about it, at your age, have you ever seen a man better than His Majesty?

These words continued to make Jiang Rong's mind clearer!
