“Indeed the straw man dare not ……”
Facing the Third Prince’s intimidating pressure, sweat came down on Master Sun’s forehead, but if he didn’t take the matter of the pills upon himself, perhaps this business of Big Brother would have to be taken away from him.
Shaking his guts, he said, “To put it mildly, the grass and you, the third prince, are still relatives.”
The Third Emperor smiled sorrowfully, “Oh? What kind of relatives? Tell me so that this emperor can hear.”
“My son is the soon-to-be-married sidekick to the Sixth Princess.”
It was a fact that Sun Jin had become a horse in harness and could not be changed; Master Sun could not bear the blow while he was in the capital, but he still had people inquire about the Sixth Princess and knew that both she and the Third Prince were born to Concubine Shu.
The Third Prince was stunned.
The Duke of Qi had not expected it either.
When he was in the capital, he was so preoccupied with finding out Gu Yi’s true nature that he didn’t pay much attention to Sun Jin and the Sixth Princess.
In the middle of his thoughts, Duke Qi had already revealed a smile, “So it’s a big flood that has washed away the Dragon King’s Temple, get up, get up.”
The Third Prince also came back to his senses and slowed down his expression.
Grand Master Sun and Master Sun stood up, and the scholar remained kneeling on the ground.
“You may go down first.”
Only then did the scholar dare to get up and exit.
“Watch the seats!”
The guards brought in two stools and Grand Master and Master Sun sat down.
The Third Prince did not beat about the bush, “Since we are family, it is good to talk, you tell me from whom the pills came in, I will personally go and talk to them.”
“The Third Prince forgives me, I signed a contract with someone in the first place, I cannot divulge the matter of her making the pills, otherwise there will be no more cooperation in the future.”
The profit from the pills was too big, in just under a year, big brother had made hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, if he let it out, wouldn’t he die of heartache.
The Third Prince blushed a little harder and was about to say something else when the Duke of Qi covered his mouth and coughed lightly.
The third prince swallowed back his words.
The Duke of Qi laughed, “In this way, you don’t tell us specifically, just tell us which village they are from and what their surname is.”
What was the difference between that and telling them all?
At this moment, Master Sun could not wait to scold Scholar Du Zefeng!
The money from the sale of the pills will be given to Jin’er to support his daily expenses and those of the Sixth Princess.
The third prince heard the meaning of his words, the money earned from the sale of pills was for Sun Jin and his sister, if he had to force him to say from whom the pills were imported, then he was robbing his sister of money.
The Duke of Qi also heard this and cursed the old fox. He had heard that Sun Jin was the only son in the Sun family and that all future assets would be Sun Jin’s, but how could the Sixth Princess compete with the Third Prince? The third prince was the one who might ascend to that position, while the sixth princess would be someone else’s once she got married.
He laughed again, “You are right, we are all family, the money will go into anyone’s pocket, but your business is small after all, it won’t make much money, why not give it to the Third Prince? Don’t worry, since we are relatives, we naturally can’t treat you poorly, no matter how much you sell, we will give you 10% of the dry profit, what do you think?”
Not really.
They were all business savvy, 10% of the profit sounded good, but compared to the profit from the pills, it was not worth mentioning.
Master Sun put on a sincere and frightened expression, “Please forgive me, Your Highness, allow me to discuss this with Jin’er, if he agrees, I will instantly send him to tell you about the people who make the pills.”
The smile on the Duke of Qi’s face could not be maintained.
The third prince’s face was hard to see, he was like the sixth princess, he had been in favour for many years and had not been denied what he wanted.
The two men, Master Sun, sensed the anger of the two men and simply lowered their heads and pretended they didn’t see it, no matter what, their status was here and the Third Prince wouldn’t dare kill them in a fit of anger.
Seeing that the two men were not greasy, the Third Prince’s anger rose, but still said patiently, “If you are not satisfied, you can increase the dry profit to twenty percent.”
The two men became even more frightened, but they just didn’t say anything.
Seeing that the Third Prince was about to get angry, the Duke of Qi hastened to stop him, there was no need to get angry with such people, if they didn’t say anything, he had all the means to find out.
“Then it’s a deal, when you have agreed with the sidekick, inform us immediately.”
“Please rest assured, Your Highness, whatever Jin’er thinks, I will have him go and tell you personally.”
“I will wait for your news.”
Having said that, the Duke of Qi stood up, and seeing the Third Prince sitting still, he gave him a wink, and the Third Prince got up with anger and walked out with a flutter of his sleeves.
The Duke of Qi followed.
When the two had gone out the door and got into the carriage, the Third Prince said reluctantly, “Since they won’t say anything, applying pressure is, why give them this face?”
“Have you forgotten what we are here for? It’s best we don’t cause any trouble at this time, don’t worry, I have my own arrangements.”
After saying that, Duke Qi lifted the curtain of the small window and ordered down in a low voice to the guards.
The guard turned around and called out to two guards, who all went away in unison to their hiding places.
Only then did the Third Prince’s face look a little better.
Inside the courtyard, the scholar Du Ze Feng looked guilty, “I didn’t mean to do it, I just wanted the Third Prince to pass the pills to the old man on his behalf.”
Grand Master Sun could not be bothered with him and ordered the boy to load the pills onto the carriage.
“Big brother, I think we should give Miss Song a word on this matter.”
Master Sun pulled him inside.
The look on the Third Prince and the Duke of Qi’s face when they were leaving just now did not look like they were just going to give up.
Grand Master Sun was also worried. Knowing that the Third Prince wouldn’t give up so easily, he was thinking of leaving right away. Hearing Elder Sun’s words, he also felt that he should give Song Wangyue a word.
“I’ll go to the academy, you stay at home and look after it.”
Grand Master Sun went to the academy in his carriage, knocked on the door of the academy, and when he learned that Song Wan Yue had already gone home, he ordered the carriage driver to go to the restaurant.
……
The first thing you need to do is to go to the restaurant and go straight to the back of the house, close the door behind you and lie on your back on the bed, with the scene of Song Wan Yue asking him if he wanted to go into the house floating in your mind.
He knew that Song Wangyue had probably guessed everything, and the reason she didn’t ask was that she was waiting for him to say it himself, but he couldn’t say it.
Thinking of this, Gu Yi closed his eyes.
Outside the door, Xiao Si sighed soundlessly.
Shopkeeper Wei also let out a silent sigh and
A seamless plan had been foiled because of Qin Qian, and the young master probably had the heart to kill Qin Qian now.
The servant ran over, “Boss, Grand Master Sun is looking for you.”
Boss Wei went out, and when Grand Master Sun saw him, he immediately said, “Boss, something has happened.”
