Chapter 275

“For now, I’ll stick with making Whitening Pills and Moisture Pills with Xiaoxiao. The demand from Beijing is large, and we don’t have anyone else to help,” Jiang Yexun said, not feeling there was anything to hide.
Su Hongchen also didn’t think he was exploiting his sister’s skills for profit. In fact, having Jiang Yexun as a middleman to contact people was quite beneficial.
Given that those involved in the black market were often shady, his sister, who was so naive, wouldn’t be able to handle them. However, the thought of the large quantities Beijing needed made Su Hongchen frown.
“If your operation gets too big, it might not be solved by just a prison sentence,” he warned.
“The people we’re doing business with are those with solid background from Beijing. I’ve confirmed their identities. They’re the only child of their parents, the eldest grandson in the family, and they’re very favored. Moreover, they have strong principles. Even if they end up exposing me, I’ll take full responsibility myself. If it comes to that, let it be just me who suffers,” Jiang Yexun said.
Before he could finish, Su Xiaoxiao shot him a fierce glare. “What do you mean by that? If this is truly dangerous, then we won’t do it. We have enough money to live comfortably for the rest of our lives.”
While money was important, it wasn’t worth Jiang Yexun’s life. She was only bold because Jiang Yexun had never encountered trouble while operating in the past. However, if he thought it was dangerous, she would certainly avoid this risky venture.
Su Xiaoxiao looked at him and emphasized seriously, “We’re not doing this just for the sake of making money. We’re doing it to provide a better life for the people we care about. So if there’s even the slightest risk, we’ll stop immediately. We have money and the skills; if needed, we can continue selling in the future once it’s safer.”
Su Hongchen nodded in agreement. “My sister is right! Although I don’t like you, since you’re with my sister now, don’t try to act tough. Handle things slowly. You’ve already earned a lot of money; this past month alone has added quite a bit. It should be enough for the three of you and any future children to live comfortably for a lifetime. Even if you do run out of money, we’re family now, and we won’t let you go through hardships alone. As long as you ensure safety, you can continue with your business or whatever you want to do.”
Jiang Yexun felt warm inside hearing the brother-sister duo’s words. He was happy for himself but even more so for his partner, who had always lived in love and would continue to do so.
“Don’t worry. I will ensure that the business is conducted under safe conditions. I’ll be doing business with people from Beijing and will also have another group monitoring the black market. Any disturbances will be reported to me immediately,” Jiang Yexun explained his plans in detail.
He couldn’t just sell goods to such a distant place like Beijing and rely solely on receiving money without keeping track of the situation there.
“Yexun, you’re really meticulous,” Su Xiaoxiao said, her eyes sparkling as if filled with stars.
Su Hongchen was also pleased with Jiang Yexun’s arrangements. However, he still expressed his concern. “Since you have a plan, follow it. But I think your operation is too large and Beijing is too far. Expanding further isn’t wise. Even if they are turning a blind eye towards the black market for now, you can’t avoid the possibility of envious people intentionally causing trouble.”
Jiang Yexun understood and nodded seriously. “Alright, after this batch of goods is out for the New Year, I’ll inform them to reduce the quantity in the future.”

Beijing was far away, and any developments or disturbances would make it cumbersome to retract the goods. It’s better to keep a close watch locally.
Before any issues even arose in the black market, he would already be informed to pull back. As long as Peng Huijing in Beijing doesn’t stir up trouble, there shouldn’t be any hidden difficulties from others.
