Old Master Yan hurriedly interrupted Old Master Wu, regardless of anything else, Song Tao was still Song Jiyun's cousin, and he was afraid that it might upset Song Jiyun.

"Her Liangyu Kiln Factory can't monopolize all the business under the sky," Old Master Yan said, "the main issue is still Eunuch Wan."

He didn't need to say it for everyone to guess, Eunuch Wan was helping the Liangyu Kiln Factory so vigorously, there must be something fishy going on between them.

But why hadn't these kiln factory owners wanted to do this before? For one, because with each new emperor there come new officials, everyone feared getting too close to the current Supervising Pottery Officer, only to be disliked by his successor; secondly, these eunuchs had long talons, having worked so hard, they might still not be satisfied with their "tribute."

Li Zixiu said bitterly, "It's like she's calculated that Eunuch Wan will protect her for a lifetime." His words made Song Jiyun's heart skip a beat.
