Chapter 136 Bargaining
"The royal family wants 80% of this thing." He opened his mouth and asked for someone's life.
Wen Licai didn't tolerate him, so he pulled Wei Gaohuan and turned away.
"You little bastard, what are you doing?" The emperor became anxious when he saw him like this.
"Why are you leaving? What can't you say?" After saying that, he coughed awkwardly to cover up his embarrassment.
Okay, he is asking for too much, but since this thing belongs to the royal family, doesn’t it mean it belongs to him? Isn’t it the same?
"Hmph, then please speak some sensible words." Wen Li said angrily.
"You're asking for 80% right away. Why don't you just say you'll give it to you for free?" After saying that, he rolled his eyes at him.
Wei Gaohuan never thought that the relationship between the eldest prince and His Majesty would be so good.
It seems that the rumors are not credible.
It is said that His Majesty favors the Second Prince, so what is happening with the First Prince?
Should I offer it as a sacrifice?
He seemed to know some great secret.
"Then tell me, what do you want? Don't tell me that this was done by the Wei family. If the Wei family had this ability, they wouldn't have been up and down all the time." Don't treat him as a fool.
Wei Gaohuan was embarrassed.
But it is true that if the Ruwei family really has this ability, would they still be among the five great families?
Even so, Your Majesty, can you please give me some face? Wouldn't it be bad if you revealed it in front of him?
"Hmph, at most I'll give one layer to the royal family, otherwise I might as well do it myself." Don't underestimate this layer, with small profits but quick turnover, the profit inside is huge.
Besides, the royal family doesn’t have to pay anything and just wait to share the money. What else does it want?
Of course, his bottom line is two-fold.
"You're dreaming. You want to use the royal name on the first floor? Li'er, are you thinking too much?" The emperor was not a fool.
"At least three floors, otherwise forget it. Ask the Wei family if they dare to sell it themselves?" Not to mention him, even the other four families would not watch the Wei family grow.
Great Khan Wei Gaohuan, could you please not drag him in?
He looked at the eldest prince in embarrassment, hoping that he would make the decision for him.
Wen Li's mouth twitched. This person is really...
"Two floors, otherwise I will open the shop myself." Humph, who is he afraid of? At most, he can let the freshmen and sophomores take action.
Just killing some people.
It's not like he hasn't killed before.
Now it was the emperor's turn to twitch his lips. You, a prince, actually dare to threaten an emperor like this. Do you even take him seriously?
Forget it, he is my son after all.
"Two floors is two floors, but you have to keep an eye on it and don't let anyone interfere. This money belongs to my Great Yan Dynasty." Humph, if his family wasn't poor, how could he be controlled by him?
In this way, the deal is considered done.
The Wei family sells goods to the outside world, but they do so in the name of royal merchants.
In this way, the Wei family may no longer be one of the five major families.
Wei Gaohuan had already clearly understood the pros and cons, and sooner or later the aristocratic families would be eliminated by the royal family.
Now is the best time for him to leave the family.
After the two came out of the palace, Wen Li asked Dayi to send some people to take revenge on Wei Gaohuan.
Wei Gaohuan certainly wouldn't be polite to the eldest prince, as that was exactly what he needed.
It would be even better if there were the emperor's personal soldiers.
Unfortunately, he doesn't have this ability.
After parting, Wen Li went straight back to the palace.
He wants to tell Xiaotong the good news.
Today he only handed over the papermaking technology, but the movable type printing was still in his hands.
Thinking of this, Wen Li felt that his wealth had improved further.
"Where is the princess?" Wen Li asked as soon as he entered the mansion.
"Your Highness, the princess went out with Miss An early in the morning," the servant replied.
Wen Li stopped, thought for a moment, and finally shook his head and walked towards the study in the palace.
And the other side.
After Wei Gaohuan conveyed the eldest prince's intention, he went to find his father and grandfather.
When Grandpa Wei saw his grandson coming to him, he knew that today's matter was accomplished.
Her face was as beautiful as a chrysanthemum.
"Is it done?" he asked.
Wei Gaohuan nodded and said, "Well, it's done. Not only that." He also conveyed the emperor's meaning.
Mr. Wei thinks it’s good.
It is true that he is a scholar, but he is not a pedantic person.
Going from a scholarly family to a business family is indeed a big fall.
But compared with life, this little loss is nothing.
"I agree." The old man said with a look of approval.
But Wei's father looked unhappy.
"Dad, do you know the consequences of doing this?" He was unwilling.
Even if he was driven out by his son and father, he was still unwilling to accept it.
But what about now?
What did his good son do?
Actually taking the trade route.
You have to know that among the four classes of people, scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans, merchants are the lowest class of people.
In the past, he had always been attracted by businessmen who reeked of money.
But what about now?
The Wei family, one of the five great families, has fallen into the ranks of merchants.
Wei Gaohuan rolled his eyes and said, "Dad, don't you understand yet? The royal family has long intended to ban aristocratic families. If our Wei family doesn't change, then what awaits us is probably the confiscation of property and extermination of the clan." He said the last sentence loudly.
You can hear his sadness from it.
How could Mr. Wei not know what his son meant?
But the Wei family is not the Yuwen family. They do not have the power of the harem, nor the power of the court. How can they compete with the royal family?
Now it is just the beginning. The Wei family is the first to stand out in the royal family. If the royal family wins, then the Wei family will definitely be no worse than the Yuwen family.
If the aristocratic family wins, the Wei family will at most become a low-class merchant.
It's better than losing your life.
Being the first to stand out has its benefits.
Since the Wei family has boarded the royal ship, they can only do their best to contribute to the royal family to prove their ability.
In this way, the royal family will not treat them unfairly.
Wei's father finally closed his mouth and sighed. It seemed as if all his energy and spirit had withered away with this sigh.
Since we are called imperial merchants, we should act like imperial merchants.
Preparations for the paper's release were already underway.
All the shops of the Wei family were stocked with white paper. In addition, many scholars in the imperial city had connections with the Wei family. As soon as the paper came out, they became the first people to own it.
These readers have the most say in whether it is useful or not.
Within three days, all the paper in Wei's store was sold out.
In short supply.
Some people want to take over the Wei family.
But after seeing the people following the head of the Wei family, they all started to guess.
Especially since Wei Gaohuan went into the palace twice in three days, his whereabouts could not be concealed, and eventually those who were interested stopped their actions.
I started trying out the paper, and it was indeed much better than the existing yellow paper.
If there is one, there will be two.
Even the Yuwen family did not dare to be too presumptuous.
However, the head of the Yuwen family changed his mind and directly asked to see the second prince.
Who is the second prince?
The emperor's favorite son.
Once he takes action, nothing can't be accomplished.
The Wei family seemed to be afraid of him. As soon as the second prince asked for paper, they prepared it for him without saying a word.
At first, the second prince might have been very happy that he was so honored, but before he could be happy until the next day, he could no longer be happy.
It really proves the saying that the happier you are, the greater the loss will be later.
