He Lianfang saw Zhao Yao's lackluster expression and curiously asked, "Aren't you a money-grubber? Why aren't you interested in Southern Wei's gold and silver jewelry?"
"I am a money-grubber, but I don't want something as hot as Southern Wei's gold and silver jewelry." Besides, if the Yuan Family really had the treasures of Southern Wei, they would belong to my eighth brother. He would never snatch them from his brother.
He Lianfang suddenly asked, "By the way, did your second uncle and the others try to seize the Yuan Family's business?"
"No, I told my second uncle not to compete with other noble families for the Yuan Family's business." He told his second uncle not to compete not out of kindness but to avoid clashes with those noble families. Those families are red-eyed for the Yuan Family's business; who knows what they might do if they come head-to-head.
