In the blink of an eye, storm clouds brewed overhead. The nearly two-decade-old Keep Achieving Commercial Firm was facing its biggest crisis yet.
However, this recent oppression against the Qian and Wang families seemed only to be the tip of the iceberg.
Meanwhile,
In the northwest of Qing An Prefecture, near the Southern Desert, a trade route that had existed for almost three thousand years, known as the "Qingbei Corridor", stretched out.
Due to the mountainous landscape within the Da Qian Realm, the terrain of Qing An Prefecture was relatively flat, making it ideal for large-scale goods transportation. Coupled with its shorter distance, the trading caravans from the three counties of Liaoyuan, Lingbei, and Longzuo would usually take this "Qingbei Corridor" when heading to the National Capital.
The Qian family's caravans from Longzuo were no exception.
Over the years, the Qian family's caravans had traversed this route countless times, making them exceedingly familiar with it.
