....
Then, the two of them hugged.
Zhang s.h.i.+ directly filled Cai Xiaolian’s gla.s.s with wine.”Come, little Lian, let’s drink!”
Cai Xiaolian also took the wine pot next to Gu shouxin and poured Zhang s.h.i.+ a gla.s.s. yes, sister-in-law, she’s the eldest sister from my family. Let’s drink!
The two of them raised their heads and drank the wine in one gulp. Then, they laughed in a carefree manner.
On the other side, Gu Ren was warming himself by the fire with Gu Xin and the rest. Seeing that his mother and his second aunt were drinking, he became anxious.
Didn’t we agree to discuss the business center? What’s going on?
If you’re not coming, then I’ll have to go.
Thus, Gu Ren called Gu en, Gu Xin, Gu si, and Gu yingxue to gather around the table. Just then, Cheng huaijin had rushed over from the Emba.s.sy.
Uncle Gu made Cheng huaijin drink three gla.s.ses of wine as a punishment, then he joined in the conversation.
Cai Xiaolian thought that since they had to stay up until dawn, they might as well have a chat. With so many people chatting, time would pa.s.s very quickly.
The two elders and fourth sister-in-law would be looking after the children tomorrow morning, so they could sleep a little longer.
So, Cai Xiaolian talked about her business center. It just so happened that all the third branch of the family were there. She had already discussed with her third aunt. Third aunt Gu could only invest money, but because she was pregnant, she couldn’t do anything.
The location of the commercial center that Cai Xiaolian wanted to build had already been chosen. It was just outside the eastern city gate. In the past two years, there had been war and trade with East and West. The capital of the great Zhou Dynasty was much more lively than before. Therefore, the Imperial court had also sent a letter to expand the capital.
Other than the northern part of the palace, which was not being expanded, the other three areas were planned to be expanded.
Cai Xiaolian had chosen the east side. When the time came, she would follow the procedures and directly buy a piece of land in the East.
Clothing, food, housing, transportation, eating, drinking, and playing, these aspects would all be involved.
Cai Xiaolian proposed two options. The first was for everyone to earn money together. The Gu family had a total of four branches. Including Gu Qingyuan’s family and Cheng huaijin, there were a total of six branches.
The investment in this commercial center was divided into six parts. The profits by then would be divided into two parts to the royal family. The second branch would take two parts of the other eight parts, and the other five branches and the two elders would each get one part.
This was the first option. After she said this, Cheng huaijin quickly waved his hand.”Second aunt, you can’t. I’ll be living in quicksand country in the future, so you don’t have to count in my share.”
Cai Xiaolian shook her head and said,”little Jin, let me finish first.” There was a second option. That is, you can buy the shop directly. I’ll get this place out, and I’ll take responsibility for everything. Then, you can buy the shop directly. That’s because, other than the shop you bought, I’m planning to rent out the rest. This way, you don’t have to manage it. You can start your own business or rent it out to others, all of these are profits!”
second sister-in-law, ” fourth uncle Gu said, ” if we choose the first option, we’ll have to bear the responsibility for the early construction and the later management of the project in addition to paying for it. Is that right? ”
Cai Xiaolian replied,”that’s a must.” I’m fine with whatever you guys choose.”
Fourth uncle Gu looked at Big Uncle Gu.
Uncle Gu looked indifferent,”I’m fine with anything!” Anyway, my wife is planning to give all the money to second sister-in-law to do this. We don’t know anything, so we just want to leave something for the children.”
Fourth uncle Gu pursed his lips and said,”big brother, you call this casual?” You’re choosing the second option! However, I think you made the right choice.”
