“？？？”
Li Shimin turned his eyes away, too lazy for Li Xiaogong to act funny.
Damn it, when have I ever cheated my own people?
On the other hand, Li Xiaogong.
Did he really not understand Li Shi Min?
In reality, this was not the case.
This whole thing was just to fight for more benefits for himself.
Li Yuan Fang looked at Li Shi Min, who was pretending to be cold, and then at Li Xiao Gong, who was acting shamelessly, and couldn't help but laugh.
Alright, this scene was seen by the sharp-eyed Li Xiaogong. His eyes turned and he pulled Li Yuanfang in without hesitation.
"Yuanfang must be like me, feeling that 10% is not enough.”Li Xiaogong shamelessly shouted.
Li Shi Min couldn't help but scold when he saw Li Yuan Fang's dumbfounded face.
"The sugar factory purchases raw materials according to normal channels, so I want you to buy 20% of the profits for 30,000 strings.”
"Not much." Li Xiaogong cowered and cursed softly,"Profiteer!"
In terms of power, no one was more powerful than Li Shimin. Li Xiaogong calculated the number of sugar canes in the area under his jurisdiction. In addition to the 10% interest, he could earn a lot of money.
"Yuan Fang, what about you?" Li Shi Min looked at him with a smile,"If you have any dissatisfaction, you can raise it."
"I have agreed to 20% of the profits from the white sugar workshop.”Li Yuanfang weighed the pros and cons.”
"Oh? What do you want?" Li Shi Min's eyes lit up, but he asked with a smile on his face.
"Uh, my younger brother is not as rich as you, so I have to think about the future when I leave the palace.”"I want a shop, a brick making workshop." Li Yuanfang said slowly.”
"Is your request that simple?" Li Er opened his mouth in surprise and asked in disbelief.
Li Xiaogong looked at Li Yuanfang as if he was looking at a fool.
Such a good opportunity was wasted just like that.
"Oh, and the priority to purchase white sugar.”"That's enough." Li Yuanfang spread his hands.”
"Are you planning to open a shop to sell candy?" Li Xiaogong noticed Li Yuanfang's thoughts.
"Your Majesty, cousin, I'm not stupid!" Li Yuanfang retorted righteously,"I purchased white sugar to make candies of various flavors, not to sell it directly. Besides, how much of the remaining 80% of the profits can His Majesty keep?”
Everything had two sides to it. Now, he did not have to pay a single cent. He had succeeded in making Li Shimin with a sugar brewing technique. This was no different from getting something for nothing.
Besides, it wasn't just the immediate benefits that were benefits. Long-term benefits were also benefits.
After purchasing the white sugar, he processed it into candies of various flavors. These were specially sold to wealthy families. He dared to sell them for a pound of sugar.
Turning to the brick-making workshop, this alone was enough to earn a huge profit before winter this year.
Why?
He didn't need bricks to build a brick bed.
Li Yuanfang's calculations were making a lot of noise, but the other two still felt that he was young and naive.
"Are you sure you want these?"
Li Shiming looked at Li Yuanfang with a complicated expression. He was afraid that his silly brother wouldn't understand, so he pointed at Li Xiaogong.
"Do you know that in this way, compared to cousin, you definitely won't earn as much as cousin.”
Li Yuanfang nodded blankly.”
At this point, Li Shimin was completely relieved of this 'silly and na?ve' younger brother.
Who knew that at this moment, Li Yuanfang would deliberately 'speak bluntly' and say something that would pierce his heart.
"His Majesty himself can't take 60% of the profits, and he still has to divide the profits in his hands.”
"Yes, yes. At the very least, if Cheng Yaojin and the others know about it, they will definitely join in. If His Majesty doesn't let them participate, then this group of people will definitely cause a ruckus.”
At this point, Li Xiaogong suddenly stopped talking and slapped his thigh happily.
"Haha…I've decided that 20% of the profits is quite good. His Majesty is much more unlucky than us.”
“……”
Li Yuanfang was speechless. Looking at Li Xiaogong who dared to tease the Emperor, he suddenly felt very impressed!
Li Shi Min's face darkened.
Hehe, a foolish younger brother who speaks the truth and a cousin who speaks bluntly. This is really too difficult for me!
In the end, Li Shiming could only keep persuading himself not to argue with these two fools. Otherwise, he might be angered to death, and these two people might not even know the reason.
"Yuan Fang, I can open a candy shop, but once there are new candies, you must send a set to me.”
"No problem." Li Yuanfang replied decisively.
Li Yuanfang took out a pouch, opened it, and poured the milk candy on the tray.
"Yuan Fang, this is?" Li Xiaogong's eyes lit up.
"Milk candy!" Li Yuanfang proudly raised his chin.
This look made people's hands itch, and they had the urge to beat up a child.
"The milk is full of flavor, and there's no fishy smell of milk at all. This milk candy is definitely something that rich families with young children are willing to spend money to buy.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Xiaogong threw another milk candy into his mouth.
At the end of the negotiation, Li Yuanfang hummed a tune as he returned to his bedroom.
Although Li Shi Min didn't realize the benefits he was offering, this didn't stop Li Yuan Fang from secretly rejoicing. He had gained something without any effort!
……
In the royal study, Li Shimin asked Li Xiaogong expressionlessly.
"Cousin, what do you think of Yuan Fang's performance today?”
"Not greedy, just…"
"Cousin, just say it. Zhen is not that narrow-minded.”
"Yuan Fang is too cautious."
Li Xiaogong shrugged, and the corners of his mouth curled into a pleasant smile.
Li Shimin frowned as he looked at the cup of tea that he had never drunk before. The tea that belonged to Li Yuanfang was the same as the tea that Feng Le served. He nodded in agreement with Li Xiaogong's words.
"Zhen feels that Yuan Fang is being overly cautious. Do you think that 'that day' made him so cautious?”
"I won't." Li Xiaogong gave the answer decisively.
'That day' referred to the incident at Xuanwu Sect, where Li Shimin killed his only remaining brother.
After a slight pause, Li Xiaogong continued to speak earnestly.
"If it's really because of 'that day', why wait three years before acting up?”
"That's true. This is the first time in three years that Yuanfang hasn't eaten tea.”"Then why?" Li Shiming frowned slightly.”
Li Xiaogong nodded his head in deep agreement, then asked in puzzlement.
"This is a matter of the Imperial Palace. Your Majesty can only investigate it himself. I can only be sure that this late self-preservation must have happened recently.”
"Your Ninth Brother has always been a quiet person. Since he thinks that the Imperial Palace is dangerous, has he never mentioned leaving the Imperial Palace?”
Li Xiaogong tactfully reminded Li Shiming that the palace was not safe and hoped that Li Shiming could investigate.
"Just yesterday, Zhen and Guanyin went to visit Yuan Fang. That brat mentioned this matter!”
Li Shi Min suddenly frowned and couldn't help but start a conspiracy theory.
He still remembered how the Guanyin maid spoke in a strange tone yesterday.
