Chương 1218: Zhao Mu

That was incredibly frustrating. His repulsive father had withheld the IOUs for years.

The Zhao Family's fate took a dark turn when those ten IOUs were finally presented.

If the Zhao Family's weaving workshop couldn't secure silk from the Zheng Family's mulberry fields without spending a hefty sum of a thousand wen, it would become a significant financial burden, one they couldn't easily shake off.

Zhao Shu couldn't contain his excitement. "Fifth Madame, these IOUs are yours, and the money belongs to you!"

Qiao Xuan burst into laughter. "Well, it seems my husband and I have become partners! I'll give you 30% of the money, and the rest will be returned to its rightful owners. But remember, don't present all ten IOUs at once. We need to play it strategically and be patient."

Zhao Shu was taken aback, but he quickly composed himself and wholeheartedly agreed.

Silk was a precious commodity.
