"Then take them all with you when you leave. These things are useless in the palace."
"Ah? I'm so embarrassed. It costs so much money."
"What's there to be embarrassed about? According to what you said, the ones we picked out for you are all of average to above average quality. The truly high-quality gemstones are not among them.
"It's useless to keep these things in the mansion. Give them to the servants as a reward. They're a bit much. Take them yourself. You can't take them out. They just take up space in the storeroom."
After hearing what his mother said, Ye Han couldn't help but feel ashamed. "Okay, I'll take it away."
Mother Ye nodded in satisfaction after hearing this, and then instructed her personal maid, "Go and send a message to the two young masters, asking them to come back for dinner, and have the kitchen prepare all the seafood that the princess sent."
"yes."
The mother and daughter chatted for a while, and then Brother Ye came in first.
"Mother, little sister."
"Sheng'er is here? Come and sit down."
"Big brother."
"Hey, how are you doing lately?" After hearing his mother offer him a seat, Brother Ye sat down directly.
"Not bad, except for the recent period when I was a bit busy, but it's also quite fulfilling."
Brother Ye looked his sister up and down and said, "Well, I can see that she has gained some weight." After saying that, he nodded to himself.
Before Ye Han could react, his mother slapped Big Brother Ye on the back of the head after hearing what he said. "If you don't know how to talk, then don't talk. No wonder you're still single at such an old age. With that kind of mouth, which girl would be happy with you?"
Big Brother Ye was stunned by his mother's visit, but before he could react, he heard her mention his marriage again. He looked at her in horror and said, "Mother, can you even bring yourself to talk about sending a gift?"
"Besides, does that mean no girl is interested in me? It just means I don't want to get married for the time being, okay?"
"I told you not to get married, but you're so proud of it. Look at how old you are. Look at those of your age, how old are their children? You still don't want to get married? Then what do you want to do? Are you hoping for the end of the world?" Mother Ye was instantly furious when she heard what eldest brother Ye said, and she started to teach her son a lesson.
Ye Han was drinking tea leisurely beside him and said, "Brother, you're on your own. I really can't help you."
Big Brother Ye is 26 years old this year. To be honest, even in modern times, parents have already started to get older. What's more, in ancient times? Big Brother Ye's words really irritated Mother Ye.
When Second Brother Ye came in, he caught up with this chaotic scene. Looking at this situation, it was obvious that Mother was urging Big Brother to get married again.
Second Brother Ye quietly sat down next to Ye Han and poured himself a cup of tea. He had seen this scene more than once. At this moment, Ye Ling felt fortunate. "Fortunately, there's my eldest brother standing in the way. My parents can't take care of me right now. Thank you, eldest brother."
Ye Han looked at his second brother, who had a familiar expression on his face. He quietly asked, "Brother, is the pressure getting worse and worse?"
"Yeah," Ye Ling nodded. "How come you have time to come back today? Where's the prince?"
"I'm out on some business."
"The Hua Qianshu you made recently is really good. Business is really good."
"Business is indeed good and is now on the right track. I have another business, are you interested, second brother?"
"Oh? Tell me about it."
Ye Han was about to speak when he was interrupted by his mother's voice. He saw that his mother had already sat back in her seat, and his eldest brother was also sitting there, but he was listening to the news with his head hung down.
"Ye Sheng, I'm telling you, this time you have to agree to this, whether you agree or not. Last time I introduced you to the daughter of Mr. Liu, you said she was only sixteen and too young to do it. Anyway, that's what I think.
She's in her prime, so it's not a good match for a 26-year-old like you. This time, it's Mr. Zhao's daughter, and her mourning period just ended this year. She's 21 now. The age is relatively appropriate now, right? If you make excuses for me again, you'll be waiting for me. \"
\"Twenty-one? It's hard to find someone in Daiyue who is still unmarried at this age. Mother, have you found out clearly?" It's not that Ye Han wants to think the worst of her, but it is indeed hard to find someone in Daiyue who is still unmarried at the age of twenty-one. There are almost none.
"I've found out everything. That incident caused quite a stir in the city. Mr. Zhao's daughter was originally planning to start marriage talks when she was sixteen, but then Mrs. Zhao suddenly passed away due to illness. Miss Zhao volunteered to observe mourning and postpone the marriage until after the mourning period was over. That's how it got delayed."
Ye Han nodded. Mother Ye said to Big Brother Ye, "Did you hear that?"
Brother Ye nodded. The matter was over.
"Come on, second brother, let's continue talking about opening a shop. Look, I have a shop here with a good location, but the business has always been average. I want to turn it into a hot pot restaurant. Are you interested in a partnership?"
"A hot pot restaurant? It's certainly good and should be very popular, but it shouldn't require a large investment." Second Brother Ye thought about the hot pot he had eaten before; it was indeed delicious. Especially since Ye Han had someone bring over some spicy hot pot base, which was truly addictive.
"I'm too lazy to bother with that, so why don't I just ask my second brother for help? I'll provide the shop, come up with the plan, and even pay for it. Then my second brother will manage it, and we can split the profits 50-50, how about that?
Ye Ling frowned after hearing this. "How about this, you open the shop and give me the general direction, and I'll take care of the rest. We'll split the profits 30% to 70%, 70% for me and 30% for you."
"Second brother, isn't your price too low?"
"No, I'm already giving you an extra 10% profit because you're my sister. If it weren't for this, I wouldn't be able to give you 30% at all."
"Then you can't make me change the day and it will be almost the same as before."
"How is that possible? There's no shop that doesn't make money under your brother's management. Besides, I roughly know which shop in the palace you're talking about. I can also roughly grasp the general situation. I will definitely not let you earn less than that."
"So amazing? I haven't said anything yet?"
"I have a rough idea of who owns the shops in the capital, and even in the surrounding areas, what they do, and how much they can earn. Even if it's not 100% accurate, it's not far off. If you say the location is good but the profits aren't great, I know which shop it is."
After hearing this, Ye Han gave Ye Erge a thumbs up and said, "How about you make money? If you can't compare, then fine. As long as you can guarantee to make more than before, 30% is 30%. However, I hope the shop assistants and shopkeepers will not move."
"As long as their abilities are good, that's fine."
The brother and sister discussed some details and wrote down all the terms, including the profit sharing requirement to be more than double the original shop's amount, clearly. Then they signed and stamped their names.
Even though a contract was completed, the brother and sister who finished the negotiations returned to their loving appearance, without any sign of neither of them giving in as they did in the previous negotiation.
