Chapter 993 Will You Truly Agree to the Marriage
ngly embraced Zongyu and sank into despair with him.After an unknown amount of time, the surface of the water finally calmed down.Fāng Jǐnxiù softened her body, leaning against Zōng Yù's embrace, "Let...She was most afraid of people kneeling before her, seeing it would give her a headache.
"Get up, if you really want me to help, don't kneel."
Tana, upon hearing this, hurriedly signaled her attendants to stand up. She was very astute and, from Fang Jinshui's helpless expression, sensed that there was a story to be told. She eagerly continued to implore him for more details.
"Sister Fang, Tanna was also forced to do this. She had no choice, please help her."
"I'm just an ordinary merchant," Fang Jinxiu sighed. "You're a princess, surely you can resolve your own problems How could I possibly help"
Tana smiled and said, "Sister, don't be modest. You can tell the background of those people today, and you even have a grudge against them. You must not be an ordinary person."
"In fact, Tana didn't have any greedy demands. She just hoped her sister would take over my tavern. I wouldn't trust anyone else with it."
Hearing this, Fang Jinshu couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.
She and Tiana were just acquaintances. Could she possibly trust her with this
Tana was indeed uneasy, but compared to others, Fang Jinshui was at least the only one willing to help her. She could only gamble on it.
Fang Jinxiu fell silent for a moment, remembering the Xinjiang delicacies she had just eaten. Well, consider it an expansion of the types of dishes on their family table. She could still help support a restaurant.
She only considered it for a moment before nodding.
"Well, there's not much else I can do for you, but taking over this tavern shouldn't be a problem."
"You must have other requirements, right"
She just now seemed absolutely unwilling to transfer the restaurant, and then turned around and begged her to take over. She must have some demands.
Tana nodded sheepishly, "Yes."
“I’m transferring the restaurant to my sister, not asking for a single cent, I just want her to let me keep 60% of the profits.”
She knew that relying on others for such a large amount of red envelopes was inappropriate. Based on the tavern's revenue today, she could probably recoup her investment in running the tavern within six months. Others could simply pay her and have nothing further to do with the tavern.
To even give her so many shares... It's not necessary. But Katerina really does need money. Her country is in dire straits, on the brink of collapse.
I thought this request was too much, and Fang Jinshui wouldn't immediately agree. Tana had even prepared to ask again and figured out how to compromise and her final bottom line.
But instead, I heard her say.
"Sixty percent Isn't that too little This restaurant was opened by you guys, I'm just taking over the management, there's no need to give me so much money."
"You take 70%."
Aren't we still supposed to be taking care of the people in Beijiang
Now she doesn't lack money, even if she did, she wouldn't make this kind of money that saves other people.
Fang Jinshu's generosity stunned the entire group, taking them aback. It took her a long time to recover.
"Sister Fang, are you serious"
Fang Jinshu nodded. "I have no need to deceive you, do I You're the ones who reap the biggest rewards, aren't you"
She could be hired to manage their restaurant for just 30% of the usual price, which was the most affordable deal she had ever received.
After another half hour, Jinxiu left Yuba Food House. Her expression was no different from when she arrived, except that she now had a contract in her arms.
Since she has nowhere to hide from Zongyu at home right now, coming to the tavern is a good idea.
After making up her mind, she took Xiaoyue and Yulian out for a stroll again, bought some food and drinks, and went back.
On her way back, Yulian still couldn't believe it.
"Sister-in-law, is Tiana really a princess"
Fang Jinshi touched her chin, unsure how to answer. Mainly because she had never met a living princess before. She had seen many in storybooks and TV dramas.
"Probably."
Yulian still found it hard to believe. "I don't think that's right," she said. "Even if the Beijang nation was really poor, I don't think their princess would have to open a tavern to make money for her family."
The most important thing is that the revenue generated by a wine shop is very limited. While it can be objectively substantial for an individual, when applied to the people of a whole country, it feels like a drop in the ocean.
So Jade Lotus felt a little fake.
Fang Jinshi leaned her chin against the carriage, looking thoughtful.
Whatever it is, we won't lose out. We didn't spend a penny on the restaurant, we only help with the management and operation. The workers are still theirs.
What's the difference between a 30% monthly bonus and just getting something for free Why not take advantage of it.
Yu Lian was taken aback and felt that her sister-in-law made sense.
Only Xiaoyue smiled beside her. The young mistress wasn't helping those people from Beijang because of the silver. She just had a soft heart and was taken by a fit of pity.
The Northern Frontier princess was stunningly beautiful. Her large, watery eyes looked pitifully innocent when she made a request, and the young mistress simply couldn't resist. She would find excuses for herself later.
Just as they were approaching the mountain villa, Fang Jinxiu instructed the two, "You must absolutely keep today's incident at the inn a secret, especially from your mother. Do you understand"
Yu Lian and Xiao Yue nodded in agreement, of course they wouldn't say anything. Saying anything would only worry Old Madam.
"Got it."
Both answered in unison.
After entering the house, Fang Jinshu first went to Mu's courtyard to report her safety. Along the way, she couldn't help but look around curiously. Chang He saw that the three had returned and immediately put down what he was doing and came to greet them.
"Madam has returned."
The long river saw her gaze unintentionally wandering around, as if looking for someone. He stifled a laugh and replied directly.
"The old master has returned long ago and is currently in the second master's room discussing matters."
Fang Jinshi feigned ignorance and asked, "Are you discussing today's palace entry"
Has Ah Yu said what the Emperor summoned him for today
Chang He hesitated for a moment, "That old man didn't say anything. As soon as he came back, he went straight to the second master's house and barely touched his dinner."
Hearing that Zong Yu hadn't eaten dinner, she stopped in her tracks and turned to Xiao Yue, giving an order.
"We didn't eat much in the city tonight, so have the kitchen make some meat-stuffed buns for us. Also, divide up the snacks we brought back today and send some to Mother and Zongbo's place. Let them try some too."
Little Yue reluctantly agreed, "Really This is for the Second Master"
Fang Jinshu arrived at the courtyard of the Mu residence, just about to enter when she suddenly heard an argument between Zong Yu and Zong Bai coming from inside. She subconsciously stopped her steps.
Isn't Zong Yu at Zong Bai's courtyard How did he end up here with Mother
She hesitated whether to go in or not, but Zong Bo's words interrupted her thoughts, sending a shiver down her spine.
In conclusion, I disagree!
"With so many princes in the palace, how could the arranged marriage have fallen to my elder brother"
"Besides, how could you possibly accept the Emperor's betrothal Brother, this is no child's play!"
The Emperor's edicts, once issued, are never changed. If Big Brother truly accepts the marriage proposal, what should his sister-in-law do
And, and... engagement!
The two brothers suddenly heard something falling outside their courtyard door and turned to look at the same time.
"Who!"
Fang Jinxiu walked out from the shadows, forcing her face to appear calm and composed.
"It was me."
Seeing her, the expressions on both brothers' faces instantly became awkward. Zong Bai hurriedly wanted to explain something for his older brother, but before he could speak, his wrist was grabbed by Zong Yu.
"You heard everything," Zong Yu directly looked at Fang Jinxiu and asked.
Fang Jinshu nodded. "I heard you. Are you truly willing to agree to the marriage"and despite the deep feud between him and the person in the capital, he couldn't just leave his nephew unattended.He specially brought a doctor with him.As soon as they arrived at the door, they saw S...
