Tianxuan handed the letter sent by Dugu Xin to Ye Xiaoxiao. When Ye Xiaoxiao opened it, her brows frowned even deeper.
She waved her hands with a headache, "Go down first, I'll think about it, and then tell you what to do."
Tianxuan considerately closed the door for her. Ye Xiaoxiao pinched her brows tiredly.
Soon, a big hand appeared behind her and started to rub her temples.
"What's wrong? Why are you so sad?"
"Shouldn't you be happy that Ye Xinxin's story has spread?"
Ye Xiaoxiao glanced at Shangguan Lingyun behind her, and then asked.
"Shangguan Lingyun, have you ever heard of Tianquan Book Club?"
Shangguan Lingyun nodded, "I heard that this book club has been sought after by countless scholars since its inception."
"I asked Wang Xiao to buy a few books. The content is really good."
"Why, didn't you buy the book you wanted?"
Ye Xiaoxiao shook her head. "Do you think the word 'Tian Quan' is an offense to the royal authority?"
Shangguan Lingyun pondered for a moment before speaking softly.
"In the literary world, everyone knows that Tianquan represents Wenquxing, and there's no such thing as offensive or not."
"But since you mentioned this today, I have discovered something interesting."
Ye Xiaoxiao raised her eyes, and Shangguan Lingyun saw that she was interested, so he hugged her and sat on her bed.
"At first, everyone thought that the Tianquan Book Society had such a bold name, and that it must be backed by some powerful person."
"Add to that the fact that the two sons of the Ye family have successively become the shopkeepers of the book club, which further confirms this speculation."
"At the beginning, this book club had just opened, and although there were a few more people, it wasn't too eye-catching."
"But with the development in just a few days, Tianquan Bookstore has made a lot of money, so some people are starting to get jealous."
"They secretly inquired about the owner of this book club, hoping to seize the opportunity to get a piece of the pie."
"But no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't find out who owned this bookshop."
Ye Xiaoxiao thought, it would be strange if they could find out.
Since the opening of this book club, Tianxuan has been operating behind the scenes, while Ye Fan and Ye Chang are busy in front of others.
Shangguan Lingyun didn't notice her abnormality and continued talking to her.
"After the incident between Ye Xinxin and Shangguan Yu broke out today, everyone started speculating that this book club belonged to Shangguan Yu."
"At first, the emperor didn't pay much attention to it. But as the books from Tianquan Book Club sold more and more, and even many concubines in the harem were attracted to them, the emperor began to pay attention to it."
Ye Xiaoxiao frowned. She had hired Ye Fan in the beginning just to change Ye Fan's fate.
But she didn't expect that Ye Chang's joining would make Tianquan Bookstore develop so quickly.
Now that the emperor has noticed it, I'm afraid her identity will be revealed soon.
With her current strength, she is afraid that she cannot swallow the big cake of Tianquan Bookstore by herself.
However, she was unwilling to share the cake she had worked so hard to make with Shangguan Yu, the hypocrite.
After taking a look at Shangguan Lingyun who was talking incessantly, Ye Xiaoxiao suddenly had an idea in her mind.
"Shangguan Lingyun, do you want to get a share of this book club?"
Shangguan Lingyun raised his eyebrows. When he thought about what he had heard from Ye Xiaoxiao, and then thought about the wonderful books in the book club, he suddenly understood something.
"I didn't realize that my woman has such great abilities."
Ye Xiaoxiao glared at him, "Stop talking nonsense, just tell me whether you want a piece of the pie or not."
Shangguan Lingyun curled his lips, "Tell me about it."
"This Tianquan Bookstore is indeed mine, but I didn't expect it to develop so quickly."
"As you said, now that various forces are watching, I'm afraid I can't protect it alone."
"But I don't want to let that hypocrite Prince Yu get away with it, so I want to cooperate with you."
Shangguan Lingyun didn't say anything. Seeing that he was interested, Ye Xiaoxiao continued.
"You become the book club's backer, and I'll take charge of it. You don't need to worry about it. I'll give you 30% of the income. How about that?"
Shangguan Lingyun didn't expect that Ye Xiaoxiao would be willing to give him so much income.
Although 30% may not sound like a lot, with the current momentum of Tianquan Bookstore, within a year, 30% of the revenue would probably be a considerable amount.
However, he, Shangguan Lingyun, protected his own woman, so how could he get a share from the little woman?
"I don't want the silver. Just consider it as my compensation to you."
"Starting tomorrow, I will spread the word and let everyone know that this book club is under my protection."
"But if you do this, your Ye family will be implicated with me. You should think carefully about this."
Ye Xiaoxiao shrugged, "This is not something I should be thinking about. Someone else will naturally take care of it."
"Even if Ye Fan isn't here, we still have Zhang Fan and Li Fan. With the book in hand, it's only a matter of time before we grow stronger."
"But are you sure you don't want this silver? It's a considerable sum."
Shangguan Lingyun raised the corners of his lips into a beautiful arc.
"Why would I ask for money from my own woman?"
"Besides, I lack everything except money."
"If you like, I have a few banks under my command that I can give to you."
Ye Xiaoxiao was speechless. [Brother, do you really treat money like dirt?]
When Shangguan Lingyun saw her happiness and heard her inner thoughts, he felt funny.
"If I had known you loved money so much, I wouldn't have gone to so much trouble to find out your preferences."
Shangguan Lingyun laughed at himself after he finished speaking, but Ye Xiaoxiao was a little unconvinced.
