"You can't get married in the future! I will support you for the rest of my life. Anyway, you will be the only one who will starve to death." Xiao Chen said.
"Isn't that what you kid said?" Gong Shouli was so horrified when he heard it. He said that Ling'er was your darling, and he kept saying that she was your biological sister. Is this how you treat your sister?
"Okay, don't argue. I'll give you 50%. I'll take 70%. Let's go, thank the emperor for his kindness, and go eat the royal meal!" Xiao Chen made the ultimate concession, refused to talk anymore, and walked away directly.
"Hey, hey, you are so arrogant. Believe it or not, I won't give you anything. This is Fengyang..." Gong Shouli couldn't stand his arrogant attitude.
"Eunuch Gong, I think it's good just like this. Half a percent for me is already quite a lot. Your 20 percent is quite a lot, and I can explain it to Sister Lin. We really can't take too much, otherwise in the future They are all troublesome," Ling'er said.
"What's the trouble?" Gong Shouli asked.
"We will make a lot of money in the future. Aren't the princes and ministers in the court jealous? They will definitely want a share of the pie. Just think about it, who will they share?" Ling'er said with a smile.
"Oh? You mean Xiao Chen actually doesn't account for 70%?" Gong Shouli suddenly realized.
"Alas...I'm afraid that my brother won't be able to save anything." Ling'er sighed, feeling deeply sad for her brother.
"That's it, let's go and eat the royal meal!" Gong Shouli became happy again.
Xiao Chen naturally knew about this, Ling'er had already told him.
It is said that Xiao Chen has made a fortune in Yanyun County. Many people in Fengyang City are jealous, but Gong Shouli is not the only one.
But Gong Shouli was the only one who had the nerve to approach Xiao Chen directly and ask for a joint factory to make a fortune together.
Although Wang Anbang, Ma Wuming, and Zhu Xiaochuan were jealous, they would definitely not take the initiative to ask Xiao Chen for this.
In addition, with their status, it is not easy for them to do business openly, let alone do business with Xiao Chen.
Not only do you want to save face, but you also have to avoid suspicion, right?
But they didn't ask for it, but Xiao Chen had to give it to him. As the saying goes, if we have money, we all make it, and if we have wealth, we can make it together. Otherwise, can we still be good friends?
Since people regard you as Xiao Chen as a good friend, you have to be sensible and don't wait for others to ask for it. You should take the initiative to give it.
Of course, you can't give money directly, you have to take a roundabout way, so giving shares is one of the most appropriate ways.
Xiao Chen really has a lot of friends in Fengyang City, so Ling'er said that he would not be able to keep even 10% of his 70% shares.
He divided all the shares, so that the largest shareholder of the candy factory would be Gong Shouli, thus avoiding the suspicion of them making friends with foreign ministers and collecting bribes.
We are cooperating with Eunuch Gong to do a small business, and we have nothing to do with Xiao Chen!
This is what everyone asks!
As for why Gong Shouli wanted to cooperate with Xiao Chen in business? We don’t quite know either…
Gong Shouli was in a good mood after the business deal was concluded, so he drank a few more drinks with Xiao Chen. The two brothers were originally at odds with each other, but as the wine heated them up, they quickly forgot about their little unhappiness.
"Xiao Chen, can you please stop being such a big-faced kid? We have known each other for so long, what else can you do if you just ask me to make a little fortune? It's not like I'm going to kill you!" Gong Shouli was happy. Don't allow Xiao Chen to be unhappy. Drinking, you should be happy.
"Little money? Damn you, you are such a toad, you have such a loud tone! I don't believe you don't know how profitable the candy factory is!" Xiao Chen said.
"Then why didn't you tell me that I had invested so much money?" Gong Shouli said with a smile.
"This is a hugely profitable business. The more capital you invest, the greater your future profits will be! I'm not looking down on you. You may not have figured this out yet," Xiao Chen said.
"Oh, we are all friends, why do you think you know so much?" Gong Shouli really didn't understand. As soon as he came back, he called in a few of his business veterans and asked them to calculate how beneficial this candy factory could be. As a result, a group of subordinates made calculations for several days and came to a conclusion...it is impossible to estimate!
"By the way, Lao Gong, what's going on with King Jiangdong?" Xiao Chen changed the subject, "I went to his palace twice today to pay homage, but was rejected both times. I don't even know why I offended him?"
"Are you talking about Li Shi? He is ill. I heard that he has been bedridden for several days and has not gone to court to discuss matters. The emperor even asked me to come over to visit him. His face is indeed not good, but no one else has seen him. , you went there to see me, right? Otherwise, your condition has worsened." Gong Shouli said.
"Is there such a thing?" Xiao Chen expressed surprise, "But I heard from people in the palace that he was busy with official duties?"
"Haha, maybe he doesn't want others to know that he is sick, right? It's ridiculous for a young prince to be in charge of political affairs. He is always sick. Our emperor is already fifty. He works day and night on state affairs, but he has never been sick. It's an illness." Gong Shouli said.
"I just happened to bring a lot of century-old wild ginseng with me this time. I will send it to the prince for a good tonic later." Xiao Chen said.
"Why the hell do you have such a good thing as century-old wild ginseng, but you don't know how to respect me?" Gong Shouli smiled and said, "I heard that you brought a big box, so it's not as bad as mine. ."
"I'll give you a big carrot, do you want it?" Xiao Chen said.
"What a shame!" Gong Shouli curled his lips, "I don't need you to be filial anymore. Someone will naturally give it to me."
"Oh, Ling'er, this little brat..." Xiao Chen could tell with his nose that Ling'er was using her own things to buy favors. Only she could do this. This is called a thousand precautions. It's hard to guard against domestic thieves. !
"Ling'er is also more sensible than you!" Gong Shouli said, "You are still thinking of giving ginseng to Li Shi, but don't you know that he actually has a heart disease?"
"Oh? I'd like to hear the details." Xiao Chen hurriedly asked for advice.
"It's not just him, even the Queen Mother is seriously ill." Gong Shouli sighed, "The Emperor is extremely worried about this. Not long ago, he even ordered various places to search for famous doctors to help treat the Queen Mother."
Gong Shouli's words may sound like an answer to the question, but if you think about it carefully, you will have endless aftertaste.
It seems that because the Queen Mother is sick, Li Shi is also sick. Li Shi has a heart disease, so what disease does the Queen Mother have?
The emperor ordered to search for famous doctors everywhere, but there was a famous doctor named Shangguan Qiji in Yanyun County, but he didn't look for him...
"Medicine can cure diseases, and Buddha can save destined people." Xiao Chen said, "The Queen Mother is already old, so it seems that she can only ask Buddha for blessings."
"Well, that's really what happened." Gong Shouli nodded, "I just pity our emperor. He just lost his son, and now... well, what are you talking about? Drinking and drinking, you did it!"
"Aren't you afraid of the emperor scolding you if you run out so late and don't go back and drink so much?" Xiao Chen kindly reminded him that he should get out.
"On my birthday that year, I boldly asked the emperor to give me a word. What do you think the emperor would give me? Drinking, sex, wealth! Hahaha, the one who knows me is the emperor!" Gong Shouli said with a smile, "That is to say, my old Gong only wants to give me a word. If I don't use these four words, the Emperor will not do anything to me. Do you understand this?"
