[Two powerful best friends join forces to change the world | Political Schemes x Making Money in Business]

On the first day after being reborn, Shen Qingyue gave the bird's nest soup her half-sister had brought her to Nanny Zhang.

On the second day, she sat upstairs in a teahouse, flipping through a book. Out of the corner of her eye, she spotted a young woman across the street selling candied fruit and calling out, "Buy one, get one free!" The city's noblewomen swarmed around her.

Shen Qingyue set down her teacup and said to Bi He, "Go downstairs and buy two jars."

Watching the young woman sell the candied fruit with such skill, she thought: I'll take that weapon.

One plotted in court, the other built a network of trade routes.

As the two friends grew their enterprises, they pushed Shen Qingyue all the way to the Dragon Throne.

With two sovereigns ruling side by side, she finally became the one holding the blade.

Lin Xiaoling knew nothing about court politics. She only cared about doing business. She owned numerous enterprises, the largest being the apothecary in the Eastern Market and the trade routes in the northern frontier. She also kept the System, visible only to her, firmly in her grasp.

Shen Qingyue had this life all figured out: what people called virtue and decorum was nothing but a cage the powerful built for lambs.

At her side stood a carefree prince who played the fool while hiding his true nature. In his hands was the largest gambling house in the world.
