"My Beloved Teacher's Wife (Walking with Love)" - Chapter 59: The Wealthy Lady ③

The next day, Liu Shihui, Guo Lingfang, and Chen Yanqiong discussed it and then went back to their respective parents' homes to do as Lingfeng had instructed.
Guo Lingfang returned to the Guo family. Her father, Guo Weiming, was sixty-eight years old this year, approaching seventy, but still appeared very energetic. He was also a big fan of Taoist cultivation, health preservation, and dual cultivation. Two years ago, he even took his tenth concubine, who was only sixteen years old.
Although Guo Weiming is already 68 years old, his tenth concubine gave birth to a son for him last year, and Guo Weiming still controls the Guo family's business and assets. In his view, living another ten or twenty years is not a problem.
Guo Weiming's biggest problem is that he left it to his eldest son, Guo Jincheng. As Guo Weiming's heir, Guo Jincheng is nearly fifty years old this year, but he can only wait. He is still the "crown prince" of the Guo family, not the "emperor" who makes the decisions, while he himself is getting older day by day. At fifty years old, he looks older than Guo Weiming, who is seventy! If Guo Weiming lives for another ten or twenty years, Guo Jincheng himself will probably leave this world first.
The Guo family has six unmarried daughters, or daughters of noble birth. Five of them are of marriageable age, and two of them are Guo Weiming's daughters, specifically Guo Lingfang's younger sisters: Guo Lingyu, Guo Weiming's fifth daughter, is only nineteen years old this year and was born to his sixth concubine; Guo Lingling is thirteen years old this year and was born to his fourth concubine.
There are also Guo Yuhan: the second daughter of the Guo family, the daughter of Guo Jinfu (Guo Weiming's second son); and Guo Yurou: the third daughter of the Guo family, eighteen years old, the daughter of Guo Jinyu (Guo Weiming's fourth son).
Guo Yuqing: Nineteen years old, Guo Jincheng's daughter. The fourth young lady of the Guo family, eighteen years old, and Wang Qifu's fiancée.
There is also Guo Yudie: the eldest daughter of the Guo family, Guo Jincheng's daughter, twenty years old, but already married.
When Guo Lingfang returned to the Guo family home and told Guo Weiming what Lingfeng had asked her to say, Guo Weiming's eyes suddenly lit up.
"You're now in charge of the Wang family's procurement?"
Guo Weiming asked.
Guo Lingfang nodded: "Yes, all the goods are purchased through me, while the accounts are handled by Liu Shihui. Chen Yanqiong manages the business, and Bai Fangmei is the head housekeeper. Currently, the four of us are in charge of the Wang family."
Guo Weiming's eyes lit up, and he asked, "Approximately how much silver does the Wang family spend on goods each month?"
"There's no exact figure, but over these three months, the average monthly purchase has been around one million taels!"
Guo Lingfang said.
"One million taels?"
Guo Weiming was somewhat surprised because he knew very well that, given the Wang family's business, profits were essentially doubled each month. This meant the Wang family was still maintaining a monthly income of one million. If you added in other shop rents, land rents, and other operating income, wouldn't that be a monthly income of one and a half million? That figure was already incredibly impressive. At least the Guo family was far from reaching that amount.
"Father, I think the Wang family is currently short of male members, and since Wang Wancheng died, Liu Suning has moved into the Wang family. Wang Wancheng's original businesses have also been consolidated under Wang Qifu's management, and the entire Wang family's income is no less than two million taels of silver per month! Wang Qifu indulges in wine and women, and Yuqing is engaged to Wang Qifu. With Yuqing's qualities, she can completely control Wang Qifu. If Yuqing is more ambitious and gives birth to a son for Wang Qifu, then the Wang family's businesses will belong to the Guo family!"
Guo Lingfang continued.
Guo Weiming nodded and said, "You're right. Jin Cheng's attempt to cancel the engagement was utterly foolish! If Wang Qifu is gone and Yuqing can give birth to a son, haha, all of the Wang family's assets will belong to our Guo family!"
Guo Lingfang said, "That's right, but Father, things can't be delayed any longer. Just last night, Liu Shihui and Chen Yanqiong rushed back to their parents' home. I guess they only wanted to do one thing: persuade their families to let the daughters of the Liu and Chen families marry into the Wang family!"
"Hmph, Chen Yicheng and Liu Chenglong? They're still too green!"
Guo Weiming said, "Lingfang, back then, I made the right decision by marrying you into the Wang family as Wang Jiacheng's concubine. Yuqing must marry into the Wang family, and she must obey your orders..."
Guo Lingfang asked, "Father, do you agree?"
"certainly."
Guo Weiming said, "Not only will I marry Yuqing into the Wang family, but I will also marry your sister Lingyu into the family!"
"Father! What are you doing...?"
Guo Lingfang couldn't believe it; what Lingfeng had said was actually happening. Guo Weiming was not only going to send Guo Yuqing into the Wang family, but also Guo Lingyu.
Guo Weiming said, "Yuqing has been resisting the engagement lately. I'm afraid she won't listen to me or cooperate, so I have to send Lingyu in. She will listen to your arrangements and will also consider the interests of the Guo family. Moreover, Lingyu is no less capable than Yuqing. From this point of view, even without Yuqing, I'm not worried about things not going to work out!"
Guo Lingfang nodded and said, "Indeed, after Wang Qifu inherited the Wang family business, he actually locked himself in his room every day to play with those beautiful maids, and even made advances towards us. He also said that he loves beautiful women more than all the gold and silver in the world, and his grand ambition is to collect all the beauties in the world. So, if the Guo family can marry our eldest daughter to him, I believe things will be much easier to resolve!"
"Wang Qifu laid a hand on you!"
Guo Weiming asked.
Guo Lingfang said, "Father, I haven't done anything out of line..."
"No, you should let him have a taste of sweetness!"
Guo Weiming said, "That would make it easier for us to control him."
"Father, I am his stepmother!"
Guo Lingfang never imagined that her father would be the kind of person who would sacrifice everything for money, including his own daughter.
“Lingfang, I know you feel wronged about this, but Wang Jiacheng is dead! You are already a widow, so there’s really no difference!”
Guo Weiming said, "Besides, even if you don't give in to Wang Qifu, can you guarantee that Liu Shihui and Chen Yanqiong won't give Wang Qifu any benefits? Lingfang, in this world, everyone looks out for themselves. If you lose power one day, your fate will probably be even worse than Liu Suning's..."
Upon hearing this, Guo Lingfang sensed that the time was right and suggested, "Father, since you've put it that way, I'll venture to suggest that all the young ladies of the Guo family marry into the Wang family. In that case, I'm absolutely confident that I can control the Wang family and make him fall into the spell of our Guo family's daughters, unable to extricate himself!"
"Huh?"
Upon hearing this, Guo Weiming thought to himself, "If that's really the case, then Wang Qifu is even luckier with women than I am." However, thinking of the Wang family's wealth, Guo Weiming couldn't help but say, "It's a bit too much for Ling Yu, Yu Qing, Yu Han, and Yu Rou to all marry into the Wang family. They've gone too far, and their intentions seem too obvious! I'm afraid the women in the Wang family will object..."
Guo Lingfang said, "Bai Fangmei is in charge of the Wang family's affairs. She has a good relationship with my daughter, so this shouldn't be a big problem. Actually, the competition among these three powerful families for the Wang family's assets is already an open secret. At this point, there's no need to hide anything. If you want it, just ask for it boldly. Father, I'm just afraid that if we act too late, it might backfire..."
“That makes sense. Yu Rou is already betrothed to the Prince, so let’s marry Ling Yu, Yu Qing, and Yu Han into the Wang family.”
Guo Weiming also went all out, saying, "For the future of the Guo family, the women of the Guo family are worth sacrificing once!"
Guo Lingfang said, "That's great. Since that's the case, I'll go back and discuss it with Bai Fangmei. We'll have the Wang family give betrothal gifts to the Guo family. The sooner the better, because if a woman from the Guo family wants to gain an advantage in the Wang family, she must be the principal wife."
"Good, take care of this matter immediately. I'll summon Jin Cheng and his brothers right away!"
Guo Weiming nodded and said.
Guo Lingfang returned to the Wang family with a mission to report back. For her, this trip back to her parents' home was a huge success. However, when she heard Liu Shihui and Chen Yanqiong's battle reports, she realized that everyone was actually evenly matched, and she could even say that she was at a slight disadvantage.
Everything was under Ling Feng's control, and they all wanted to know what the next step in Ling Feng's "courtesy first, then force" plan would be.
