If he didn't drag the Yu Family's Patriarch down with him, the Wu Family would be the unlucky ones if there were any unforeseen circumstances!
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was amiss. He couldn't help but think of the papermaking technology.
This …
Prince Zhang had given the papermaking technology to the Yu Family a long time ago. If he were to stand out and discuss the distribution of the papermaking technology with the Yu Family's Patriarch now …
How much could he benefit from this? Would he offend the Yu Family? Would he offend Prince Zhang?
Thinking of this, the Wu Family's Patriarch stood up and bowed submissively to the Yu Family's Patriarch. "Patriarch Yu, how about the Wu Family take 10% of the papermaking business?"
Then, he glared at the Yu Family's Patriarch. The Wu Family's Patriarch was very nervous. He didn't know what the Yu Family's Patriarch would say next, and he didn't know if his words would incite public anger.
The Wang Family's Patriarch, who was sitting next to him, looked at the Wu Family's Patriarch thoughtfully. It seemed like the Wu Family's Patriarch already knew about this matter.
If the Wu Family was too greedy and overzealous, then the Wu Family's efforts would be in vain. One had to know that Prince Zhang had a close relationship with the Yu Family. Who didn't know that?
Yuchi Hong yawned leisurely and ignored the Wu Family's Patriarch. He only waved his hand at them and leaned back in his chair silently.
This made the Wu Family's Patriarch extremely conflicted. At this moment, he was drenched in cold sweat. He didn't dare to be careless, afraid that he would say something wrong and cause problems!
Seeing that no one had any objections, the Wu Family's Patriarch couldn't help but feel a little happy. 10% was also a huge fortune.
Then, he continued, "Then, I'll be in charge of the glazed workshops in the city center. The new workshops are still under construction. How about you be in charge of them?"
The Wang Family's Patriarch was unhappy when he heard this. How could the other glazed workshops be as prosperous as the one in the city center? One had to know that the glazed workshops had been operating for a long time, and the profits it generated were considerable.
This Wu Family Head's plan was really good. He wanted to monopolize that good place for himself and let the Old Man manage the other glass workshops. Why didn't he manage them himself? He was really too cunning!
Thinking of this, the Wang Family Head said angrily, "Brother Wu, you really know how to take advantage of others. That place is a fertile land, and the benefits you can earn from it are considerable. It's not good for your Wu Family to occupy it, right?"
The Wu Clan's Patriarch's eyes lit up. The Old Man had gambled all of his clan's assets in exchange for this. If he couldn't obtain the best benefits, then how could the Wu Clan make a comeback?
The Wang Clan kept going against him today. What exactly were they trying to do? Could it be that they were blaming him for not cooperating with them?
He remembered that a few days ago, the Wang Family Head had sought him out to discuss the matter of cooperation. Could it be that the Wang Family Head had jumped out because of the unequal distribution?
He was determined to obtain the glass workshop in the city, but he couldn't afford to offend the Wang Family Head. If he caused too much trouble and caused Prince Zhang to be dissatisfied, then wouldn't that be a great loss?
After thinking for a moment, the Wu Family Head smiled and patted the Wang Family Head's shoulder. He said indifferently, "Brother Wang, how about this? You and I will manage that glass workshop together. As for the benefits, we will distribute them reasonably. Don't cause any conflicts because of this!"
The Wu Family Head still couldn't cause too much trouble. This matter was related to whether or not the Wu Family could rise. He couldn't be careless. It was better to curry favor with this old man first!
The Wang Family Head couldn't help but frown when he saw the Wu Family Head's eagerness. What was this old man trying to do? His Wu Family wanted to rise, but wasn't the Wang Family the same? In the past, the Wang Family was also a famous and prestigious family.
But now, they were in decline. Fortunately, they had Prince Zhang's support. When it came to benefits, he couldn't ignore it. But seeing that the old man was willing to compromise, he reluctantly agreed. After all, he was now working for Prince Zhang, so he had to consider the big picture.
Thinking of this, the Wang Family Head's expression softened slightly and he nodded. Seeing that the Wang Family Head had compromised, the Wu Family Head finally breathed a sigh of relief. If they continued to argue like this, it would definitely cause the Yu Family Head to be dissatisfied.
The division of labor for the glass workshop had already been discussed. The next step was the papermaking technology for Bai Zhi. Now, the Yu Family Head was in charge of this. But now, the Yu Family Head hadn't said anything, so he dared to fight with him.
Bai Zhi's market in Jiangnan was very sizable. No matter where they operated, they wouldn't suffer any losses. Thinking of this, the Wu Family Head asked tentatively, "Yu Family Head, how will the division of labor for Bai Zhi's papermaking factory be divided?"
Yuchi Hong, who was in a daze, was pulled back to reality by the Wu Family Head's words. He glanced at the Wu Family Head and said indifferently, "You arrange it yourselves!"
The Wu Family Head's heart skipped a beat. The Yu Family Head hadn't said much from the beginning. Everything he asked was arranged by them. What was this old man trying to do?
Yuchi Hong yawned and said, "If there's nothing else, the Old Man is going to rest!"
For a moment …
The Wu Family Head's face was ashen. It turned out that he came here today to let them discuss among themselves. The Yu Family Head didn't take him seriously. After thinking about it, he held back. After all, he couldn't afford to offend them now.
Then, he flicked his sleeves and left without looking back.
The Wang Family Head and Fan Jin bowed to the Yu Family Head and left one after another.
After seeing them leave, the corner of Yuchi Hong's mouth curved into a smile.
The Old Man's son-in-law is Zhang Feng. No matter how you divide it, the Old Man will have a share. The Old Man doesn't care about you!
