Chapter 20%
Everyone was silent for a while.
After a while, the head of the Han family said, "Cooperation is possible, but 40% is definitely not possible."
"It is inappropriate to open up the markets of the three neighboring countries. If we do that, we will definitely become the target of attacks by the three countries, and I am afraid that we will be completely blocked in the future."
"The owner of the family is right. We must not open up the markets in the three surrounding countries. After all, the salt there is sold by the imperial court."
"We have undoubtedly taken food from their mouths in the past, but this time we have completely angered the three kingdoms' courts, which is not a good thing for us."
"Of course it's okay to continue selling secretly and at high prices."
The group of people who were originally quarreling stopped talking when they saw the head of the family regressing.
"In that case, how much does the owner think is appropriate?"
"10%, at most 20%."
"You also know the current situation of the family. If we give too much, the resources in our hands will be reduced. Even if we get the method of making snowflake salt by then, it will not be a good thing for us."
"The other party has more resources, and they can also continue to oppress our space."
As soon as the head of the Han family said these words, everyone fell silent again.
What's more, I feel frustrated.
"Tell me, why are we going against someone like Princess Wanfu?"
"If we had not opposed him at the beginning, we would not be like this now."
"Why did it come to this point?"
Hearing this, everyone looked at each other in confusion, and many people glanced at the head of the Han family.
It's true that the Han family was originally safe and sound, but it was because of provoking Princess Wanfu that they fell into the abyss step by step.
In fact, they all knew why they provoked Lu Yaoyao.
It was not because the children of the Han family were arrogant in front of Lu Yaoyao, but more because the head of the Han family was angry and wanted to deal with the series of things that Lu Yaoyao had caused.
Especially after instigating the three neighboring countries to come to Dongzhou for marriage, Lu Yaoyao began to fully target the Han family.
"It's useless to say all this now. It's reached this point. At the beginning, I didn't expect that Lu Yaoyao actually had something like snowflake salt in his hands."
"Otherwise it wouldn't be like this."
Does the head of the Han family regret it?
Of course I regret it, and I regret it very much.
The only blame is that he was too arrogant at the time, which made the younger members of the family look arrogant. If they hadn't targeted Lu Yaoyao in a arrogant way, he wouldn't have come forward.
Although snowflake salt will still be released, the result will not be as passive as it is now.
"Let the Beijing side negotiate, at most 20%. If she doesn't let go, we will think of other ways."
Soon the news reached the capital, and the steward of the Han family immediately went to Prince Ning's Mansion to ask for an audience.
"One percent?"
Upon hearing the price given by the Han family, Prince Ning's first reaction was that Lu Yaoyao would never agree.
"Forty percent is too much. The family will definitely not agree to it. 10% is fine, and from now on, our Han family will never be enemies with Princess Wanfu again."
Hearing this, Prince Ning nodded. The figure of 10% was actually within his expectation.
"What did the Duke of Zhen say?"
Mentioning the Duke of Zhenguo, the Han family's steward's face looked a bit unhappy.
To be honest, during this period, he often went to see Duke Zhen Guo, but Duke Zhen Guo always said that there was nothing he could do.
Is there really no way? In his opinion, that's not necessarily the case. It's just that the price to pay is not small.
Duke Zhen Guo still doesn't want to lose too much to help the Han family.
In fact, this is normal. He has already received benefits from the Han family. If there is no threat to his foundation, there is absolutely no problem in helping the Han family.
But once what he gets is not proportional to what he pays, he will never help the Han family.
Anyway, it was not him who lost. Besides, the Han family did lose a lot, the more advantageous it would be for him to threaten and control the entire Han family.
His ultimate goal is nothing more than to make the Han family his money bag. Once he reaches this point, Zhen Guo Gong will not be short of money or people. If he really can't do what he wants to do without hesitation,
.
He wouldn't mind doing it directly at all.
"What else can I say? If Lord Zhenguo can help like His Highness, our Han family will not be so passive."
"I'll leave it to Your Highness. If it comes to pass, the Han family will be very grateful."
Hearing this, King Ning waved his hand and said, "I'll tell you later whether you want to thank me or not. The most important thing now is to help the Han family tide over the difficulties. I may still need to rely on the Han family for help in the future."
"You go back first, I will go to Prince Jin's Mansion later."
"But you have to be mentally prepared. Princess Wanfu will not easily agree to the price of 10%."
The steward of the Han family nodded repeatedly.
Of course he knew this very well.
"Your Highness, let's try it first. If she doesn't agree, Your Highness can try to raise it to 20%. This is the final price the Han family can accept."
"Well, let me go and talk about it."
Soon after the steward of the Han family left, Prince Ning also quickly left the palace. First, he went to Prince Jin's residence. When he learned that Prince Jin was not at the residence, but at Chengyuan Villa, he rode out of the city directly.
"Miss, Prince Ning is here."
"Oh? Please come in quickly."
Lu Yaoyao said, looking at King Jin beside him and smiling: "It seems that there is news from the Han family."
"How much do you think they will give."
"At most 10%."
King Jin gave this answer almost immediately.
"It's almost the same, but I think it should be 20%."
10%, maybe a lot, but to her it was no different than sending a beggar away.
"A gamble?"
"What to bet on?"
Lu Yaoyao asked with a smile.
"Let's do it this way. If you lose, you will have a bite from me."
Hearing this, Lu Yaoyao looked at him with a smile but not a smile and asked, "What if you lose?"
"You won't be the one to kiss me, right?"
"Eh? Of course."
King Jin, who was about to say no, immediately smiled and said, "That's a good suggestion. How about betting or not?"
"Get lost."
Lu Yaoyao rolled his eyes at him angrily, and soon Prince Ning came.
Just when Lu Yaoyao wanted to salute, Prince Ning quickly said, "Auntie the future emperor, we are not going to salute."
"Then please sit down, Prince Ning."
"Is there news from the Han family?"
King Jin was the first to ask.
"Yes, not long ago, the steward of the Han family came to me and asked me to come over and tell the Han family about the price of 10%."
Hearing this, King Jin looked at Lu Yaoyao with a smile and raised his eyebrows, as if he meant that he had won this round.
But the next moment, Prince Ning continued, "But this is not their final price. Just when I was planning to come over, the steward of the Han family gave me the bottom line. The final price they can accept is 20%."
"10% is just a test. If the princess doesn't agree, just let me say 20%."
Lu Yaoyao smiled and raised his eyebrows and glanced at King Jin, with a provocative smile in his eyes.
