Chapter 146 Patriarch

The chair was a bit high, and Bei Jingchu's toes couldn't even touch the ground. She dangled her two short legs and said as she analyzed, "I don't know how many wealthy businessmen in the world would want to be known as this princess."

"To describe it as spending a fortune is to be frugal."

"Twenty percent profit?"

"I just want a 90% profit, it's not too much. After all, the benefits I bring to you cannot be bought with just 90% profit."

"In the entire Dai Viet, apart from your Majesty's private property, even the richest man has to give way to you."

Bei Jingchu rested her elbows on the table and tapped her cheek lightly with her index finger.

As I kept tapping, I found that my face felt really good!

[Uh... so soft, worthy of me! 】

Haoyue:?

At this time, what is your Highness thinking about?

Bei Jingchu said lazily: "Let me think about it~"

"Your Tan family has the support of the Shangshu Ling, so not everyone can offend them easily."

"So you will be able to accumulate a large amount of wealth in four years and become the most wealthy family in the capital."

"Now you want to come to me... Is there some trouble in your family? Even the Minister of the Chancellery can't solve it, so I'm going to use my name to clean up your mess?"

Mrs. Tan knew that if she dared to say "yes", her future with the Tan family would be over.

Fortunately, it is not.

Just as she was about to speak, she was interrupted by the young princess.

Her clear eyes were gentle and warm, yet they could penetrate her outer shell and see through her heart.

Her childish voice slowly reached my ears: "Don't try to fool me or lie to me."

"You only have one chance."

"I have limited time and I am not interested in playing guessing games with you guys."

Madam Tan swallowed the words on her lips, not daring to hide them any longer: "Your Highness, nothing happened to the Tan family."

"But people always strive for higher goals. Who doesn't want to go one step further?"

"It is naturally beneficial to be blessed by His Highness."

"If Your Highness is willing to lend a hand, the Tan family will obey your orders from now on!"

Bei Jingchu was slightly satisfied. This was the look of someone seeking refuge.

"Do you know what it means to seek refuge?"

"All your family accounts and assets must be reviewed by me."

"Your entire family must obey my command and not disobey me in the slightest."

"Because I will not allow you to cause me trouble in my name."

"Kill every disobedient one."

"Can you decide these?"

"Or is it the elders in your family who want you to join me?"

"Because they think I'm young and easy to control?"

After saying this, Bei Jingchu felt a little thirsty.

【My throat is so dry.】

Haoyue immediately brought over the milk tea.

Bei Jingchu admired in her heart: [Haoyue has become more and more considerate recently. 】

Upon hearing the praise, Haoyue's non-existent tail fluttered.

Madam Tan kowtowed and replied, "I dare not hide it from Your Highness. My father is seriously ill now, and I am competing with my brother for the position of head of the family."

"Now everything is ready, only the east wind is missing."

"As long as His Highness accepts me, I can make the decision."

Bei Jingchu became interested.

【This is a bit interesting.】

Without desire, there is no demand, and without demand, there is no control.

She likes ambitious people.

Especially this ambition, she can still satisfy it.

Money and power.

This is what she can give.

[What a smart person, he got something for nothing. 】

Use her name as a trump card to compete for the position of the head of the Tan family.

[But I can get a bag of money that never ends, so I'm also making money. ]

This time, Mrs. Tan showed her full sincerity.

"If I become the head of the Tan family, 90% of the profits will be given to Your Highness."

"All members of the Tan family are subject to your orders and rewards, and all financial accounts are also submitted to your review."

Her attitude finally satisfied Bei Jingchu, so she gave her some benefits in return.

"Follow me, and I will make sure you have a good life."

“You picked the right person.”

"I'm always nice to my own people."

"Ninety percent is fine, seventy will be fine."

"Then the 20% will be considered as a congratulations to you for becoming the head of the family."

Mrs. Tan was delighted.

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Seeing her look, Bei Jingchu knew that this person was already under her control.

Her smile deepened.

【First, subdue the person, then give him benefits. 】

【The first time you meet someone, you can get the maximum loyalty from them. 】

[To suppress is to make people respect you, so that they dare not have any thoughts of doing anything rash. To give benefits is to make them feel good about you and create long-term loyalty.]

[Ah, this... I feel like I've become a bad person. ]

Haoyue was stunned by what he heard, and then he learned something. He would use this trick to help His Highness recruit palace maids in the future.

But Haoyue recalled, had His Highness treated her like this before?

After searching around, it seems that His Highness has never suppressed her.

Maybe she was just a very sensible person, her non-existent little tail twitched again.
