"Hehe, it's not what I think?”
"Then tell me, what is it like?”
Li Er sneered and his face darkened.
If he didn't guess wrong, the real boss of this business was Li Ke.
Fang Xuanling and Zhangsun Wuji were partners that Li Ke had pulled in to start a salt business.
As for himself, he was the one who wanted to forcefully interfere in Fang Xuanling and Zhangsun Wuji's salt business. He was originally an unrelated person.
Damn it!
To think that he had forcefully asked for 20% of the profits from each of them, and he was even smug that he was the one who had the most profits.
Now, it seemed that he had made a fool of himself. He did not know how much he had done. Moreover, he had to face Li Ke, this unfilial son.
"This... This…"
Zhangsun Wuji's old face heated up and he felt very awkward.
He looked at Li Er and then at Li Ke.
F * ck, you and your son are at odds. How did it become awkward for us?
Please, if there's anything between you two, can you talk in private? We still need to earn money.
However, Zhangsun Wuji only dared to think about it. In the end, it was his and Fang Xuanling's fault for not planning well today.
Left with no choice, Zhangsun Wuji could only smile apologetically as he explained the truth to Li Er.
During this time, Li Ke's expression was calm. He didn't stand and returned to the teahouse to sit down and slowly drink tea.
Li Er's face darkened when he saw Li Ke ignoring him.
Finally, Zhangsun Wuji finished his explanation.
After he finished speaking, he stood obediently at the side and waited for his lecture.
Fang Xuanling was the same. He lowered his head and didn't dare to make a sound.
The atmosphere on the second floor was solemn and quiet. Li Ke did not speak either.
"So I shouldn't have come this time, right?”
Li Er said coldly.
His tone and expression were very cold.
"It's time to come, it's time to come, Your Majesty naturally should come!”
Zhangsun Wuji and the other man didn't dare to breathe too loudly.
Scold us, Your Majesty. If you scold us, we will feel more at ease.
If you don't scold us, we'll both be afraid.
"Hmph, I'll settle the score with you later.”
"Unfilial son, aren't you going to bow when you see me?”
Li Er snorted heavily and turned to look at Li Ke on the stool.
Looking at Li Ke's carefree appearance, the anger in Li Er's heart grew even greater.
This unfilial son is really getting more and more arrogant. He actually doesn't even bow when he sees me. Is he rebelling against the heavens?
Don't think that you're great just because you earned some money. It's still worthless in front of the imperial power.
"I'm afraid Your Majesty is forgetful."
"This commoner has already followed Fang Xiang and Lord Zhangsun to bow.”
Li Ke smiled indifferently.
He sat there and looked at Li Er calmly without fear.
Thinking of Li Ke's true fate, Li Ke and Li Er couldn't be happy.
As for Zhangsun Wuji, Li Ke didn't want to fight with him yet. He wanted to start the salt business first.
"Is there?"
Li Er's expression turned cold as he turned to Fang Xuanling.
He narrowed his eyes and recalled whether Li Ke had saluted him or not.
It seemed that Li Ke had already bowed to him.
"Ahem."
"I don't know."
"I didn't pay attention."
Fang Xuanling and Zhangsun Wuji lowered their heads, not daring to admit it.
First of all, it was impossible for them to risk their conscience and say that Li Ke did not bow.
But if he told His Majesty that Li Ke had already bowed, wouldn't that be slapping His Majesty in the face?
This was even more unacceptable.
They had no choice but to lower their heads and pretend that they didn't know anything.
"Hmph, unfilial son, I won't argue with you this time.”
Li Er coldly snorted.
Even if he remembered Li Ke's salute, Li Er would not admit it.
Although his face was a little hot, as an emperor, what kind of scene had he not seen?
"Hehe, thank you, Your Majesty.”
Li Ke chuckled and crossed his legs.
"How much of the salt business will Zhen get?”
Li Er looked at Li Ke's appearance and his face darkened again.
This guy didn't even show him any respect.
He's so arrogant. Does he really think that I won't do anything to him?
"Twenty percent."
"Oh, right, I forgot to tell His Majesty.”
"The agreement clearly states that if I feel that there are people who hinder the development of the business, I can take back the share and only need to compensate them appropriately.”
Li Ke said indifferently.
Among the agreements signed by the three of them, one of them was about the division of profits.
In order to prevent Zhangsun Wuji and the other from acting recklessly, Li Ke deliberately set this rule because he thought that he had the power in his hands.
At that time, Zhangsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling both felt that this agreement would not work, but Li Ke said that if it did not work, they would not do business.
They had no choice but to sign the agreement.
In other words, the real person in charge of the Salt Master was Li Ke. No matter how many shares were distributed, it would still be Li Ke.
He had the right to take back the shares that he had distributed!
"Interesting."
"Is this a warning?"
Li Er was so angry that he laughed and stared coldly at Li Ke.
There were traps everywhere in this unfilial child's matter.
It seemed that it was not easy to get some benefits from him.
Why didn't he realize that this unfilial child's mind was so agile before?
Could it be that he had been pretending in the palace? Did he want to leave the palace on purpose?
"I wouldn't dare."
"I'm just informing His Majesty.”
Li Ke smiled.
Although he didn't dare, Li Er and Zhangsun Wuji didn't think that Li Ke didn't dare.
On the contrary, they felt that Li Ke had deliberately said this to warn them not to think that they could do whatever they wanted just because they were in a high position.
This guy was really vicious.
"Humph!"
"I won't lower myself to your level."
"But remember to pay my share every month.”
Li Er snorted again.
He flung his sleeves and turned around to walk towards the stairs.
"Your Majesty, please wait a moment."
"I have to remind Your Majesty that the shop will not be split for three to six months.”
"We have to accumulate funds for when we are not in a hurry, so we haven't divided it yet.”
Li Ke stood up and called out to Li Er.
"I understand."
Li Er gritted his teeth in response.
After saying that, he really did not stay on the second floor anymore and walked to the stairs.
At the stairwell, plainclothes imperial guards were guarding the place, preventing people from going up and down. When they saw Li Er, they immediately handed a cloak to him.
Li Er's expression was not very good. After putting on the cloak, others could not see his face, and his expression became even uglier.
He went down the stairs.
The first floor was filled with guests.
Seven to eight slots filled with fine white salt lined up in a long line.
Each team was arranged far away from the door, and each team had at least two to three hundred people.
After leaving the salt master, Li Er did not immediately return to the palace.
He then looked at the two shops, Ice and Snow and Fragrance Beauty.
Similarly, these two shops were also overcrowded, and the customers felt like they wanted to fight for it.
Business is good!
Money was so easy to earn!
Why was that unfilial son's business so good?
Thinking that his palace treasury was almost left with only rats, Li Er felt envy in his heart.
Only he knew how much he envied Li Ke's current booming business.
Li Er sighed and prepared to return to the palace.
However, just as he was about to leave, he saw Zhangsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling rushing over.
Li Er sneered.
