"Li Luo."
"What's your surname?"
The young woman paused briefly, then answered, "Wen."
"Wen Liluo…" Shen Yinning savored the name, then suddenly said, "When I was in Gan State, I heard that in Luoyang, there was a family so wealthy they rivaled nations. They specialized in the trade of spices, gemstones, and silk between the Western Regions and the Central Plains. Known as the richest family in the North, every member of their household is a talent in business. Even Jin Merchant Qian Duobao pales in comparison. Do you, by any chance, have any connection with the Wen Family of Luoyang?"
The girl in the taoist robe flashed a chill in her eyes. "The Manor Owner loves to jest. The Wen Family is far away in Luoyang, while I am here in Jiangnan. Although we share the same surname, we are clearly as unrelated as can be. If I had a father who was the richest man in the North, would I really be here counting money for others?"
