Chapter 73 Can it be like this?
When Ye Yunchu looked at Li Ruanruan, he found that the concubine was looking at him sincerely.
She held his hand again and said, "All of this is for you."
It was indeed a way to make money, and he underestimated her.
Ye Yunchu hung the purse around his waist. It was heavy and substantial.
Li Ruanruan felt a little sad when she saw his action, because she had originally wanted to hide it secretly, thinking of using it to redeem her father and brother, or to keep it for herself to do some small business.
But now Su Xiu is being targeted, and she is afraid that both she and Ye Qiaoqiao are being targeted, and nothing they want to do will be possible.
It would be better to give it to the prince, please him and prove his value.
Who doesn’t like money? But if the money is spent wisely, it won’t hurt.
No, she doesn't feel sorry at all.
Li Runrun withdrew her gaze and obediently followed Ye Yunchu into the east wing dining hall.
She also took the dish from Haitang's hand and placed it in front of the prince in a flattering manner.
The person who went to pick up Shaoyao was glared at and didn't take it. Shaoyao put it there herself.
Li Runrun was not angry, but ran behind the prince and massaged his shoulders and back, looking like she wanted to be considerate and serve him well.
It seemed even more like she needed something from him.
Ye Yunchu didn't say anything. It was rare to see her being so attentive. If he didn't enjoy it, wouldn't it be an insult to her?
Only after all the dishes were served did Li Ruanruan sit down.
Having lived in the East Courtyard for a while, she was attentive and quickly remembered the prince's preferences and prepared dishes for him according to his taste.
Ye Yunchu felt quite comfortable having her serve him meals.
After eating, Li Ruanruan walked in front of Ye Yunchu attentively, opened the study door, added some charcoal to the charcoal brazier, and handed it to Ye Yunchu to warm his hands.
Li Runrun was still turning the charcoal brazier to make the charcoal burn more completely. The charcoal fire felt warm on her face, warming her whole body.
And there was no smoke at all, unlike the charcoal used in her ear room, which choked people before it was fully burned.
Although separated by a wall, she received two different treatments. She was just a maid with no status.
No wonder Su Xiu was targeted. She was too weak and without any support, she would be eaten until nothing was left.
Whether opening a shop outside or living in the marquis's mansion.
Li Runrun thought seriously that she had to cling to the prince's golden thigh. The prince was a walking power. If he was not her backer, who else could be her backer?
Li Ruanruan suddenly understood, and her smile became even more flattering: "Master, are you still cold? Do you want another charcoal basin?"
Ye Yunchu didn't feel cold at all, but seeing the maid being so attentive, he just warmed his hands casually.
He sat cross-legged on the couch and looked up at Li Ruanruan: "Has someone targeted the Su embroidery shop?"
Li Runrun was still trying to figure out how to start, but the words got stuck in her throat. She looked at Ye Yunchu in shock.
Ye Yunchu chuckled: "What are you surprised about? Didn't I say I can read minds?"
Li Runrun's face turned red. The prince might not be able to read minds, but he was indeed very shrewd.
Li Ruanruan lowered her head, then moved closer to Ye Yunchu before saying, "Master, do you know everything?"
"The property of the Marquis' Mansion cannot be targeted by outsiders. Is it my mother?"
"Um."
"What are your plans?"
"It's the Second Miss. She wants to register the shop under the name of the Crown Prince, and split the profits 40% to 60%."
"I don't touch that."
"37."
"I have no intention of arguing with my mother."
"Twenty-eight."
Ye Yunchu slowly warmed his hands and said, "I'm a little sleepy."
This means I'm going to either talk to her or turn the table over.
Li Ruanruan knelt down, holding Ye Yunchu's hand tightly, as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw: "One nine."
Li Ruanruan continued, "The Second Miss said she wanted to give all the profits from Su embroidery to the Crown Prince. I said the Crown Prince was kind-hearted and knew how difficult it was for the Second Miss as a concubine in the Marquis's mansion, so he definitely wouldn't want any of the profits. But the Second Miss said she couldn't let the Crown Prince suffer a loss, and insisted on giving him 90% of the profits. The Second Miss's heart is still very sincere."
"What about the four or six before that?"
"It was me. The prince and I were just joking. The second lady's original intention was nineteen."
Ye Yunchu reached out and flicked Li Ruanruan's forehead: "You are naughty, and you are playing a joke on me."
Li Ruanruan lowered her head, looking shy and timid, but her heart was actually bleeding.
The prince is indeed not easy to fool.
She wanted to fight for it, but in the end she had to give up on some unnecessary cleverness. Playing tricks in front of the prince is like waving a sword in front of Guan Gong.
She really overestimated her own abilities.
Ye Yunchu stared at the charcoal basin for a long moment before saying, "I didn't want it originally, but since you're so sincere, it's fine. I'll talk to my mother myself."
"Thank you, my Lord."
Li Runrun got up from the ground and stood aside, still feeling heartbroken.
Although she also understood that if there was no prince, she and Ye Qiaoqiao would not be able to earn this 10% profit, it is better to earn some profit than nothing.
Seeing that Li Ruanruan was silent, Ye Yunchu couldn't help but laugh at the change in her expression: "Can't bear to let her go?"
Li Ruanruan smiled gently: "This is the Second Miss's business. The Second Miss is not reluctant to give it up, so how can I be qualified?"
Ye Yunchu pulled down the purse and poured the gold ingots onto the table: "Where did you get all this if you don't have the qualifications?"
"I exchanged it for my embroidery."
Ye Yunchu picked up two gold ingots and played with them: "They are quite valuable."
Li Runrun stretched out her hand, wanting to take one from his table. After all, he probably didn't remember how many princes there were.
Just as he caught it, Ye Yunchu slapped the back of his hand: "Why are you touching my gold ingots?"
Li Ruanruan withdrew her hand, knowing that she could not get it back once it was in his hands.
"I'll help set it up."
"Eight ingots."
The count was so clear that Li Runrun fell silent. It turned out that the prince was still very short of money.
Ye Yunchu did not go out the next day. He seemed to have some free time, but no one knew how long it would last.
When Ye Qiaoqiao came to find Li Runrun, she hadn't gotten up yet. She was too tired yesterday.
When she got up, she saw the prince lying in a rocking chair reading a book, and seemed to have fallen asleep. She walked over and covered him with a blanket.
Just went out.
Ye Qiaoqiao grabbed her and asked, "What's wrong?"
"It's all settled, but we'll be at a disadvantage on the dividend split, 190."
"Nineteen? Nine of us? Big brother is so nice."
"Don't be too happy too soon, let's go together."
“Ah, this…”
Ye Qiaoqiao whispered to Li Ruanruan, "I didn't expect big brother to be so mean."
Li Ruanruan thought of the prince sleeping inside and said quickly, "Shh!"
Then he added, "The prince didn't take 100% of it. He gave us two starting wages to work for him for free. That's already very good."
Although Ye Qiaoqiao felt heartbroken, she knew the pros and cons and nodded.
The prince, who had not fallen asleep at all, suddenly opened his eyes.
He had good hearing and heard everything they said.
Huh? It's actually possible?
