Mu Yangling met Zhu Liang passionately and instructed him about the details of the opening of the grain store. Then, she went back to look for Fan Zijin.
Mu Yangling looked for Fan Zijin to express her apology. She planned to take over the grain store business and invest with her dowry, so she could not work with him. Secondly, she shamelessly asked him for manpower since he had always been in charge of the trade caravans in the north and south. Mu Yangling had men to deal with the transportation of the grains, but she still needed someone to lead the way. Hence, she asked Fan Zijin for someone who knew the way.
When Fan Zijin saw Mu Yangling's guilty expression, the corners of his lips twitched. He said nonchalantly, "It's fine if you want to do the grain store business yourself. I'll prepare the people for you. However, how many grain stores do you plan to open in Lin'an City?"
