Chapter 706: Sellers and Negotiators
Chapter 706: Sellers and Negotiators
"Woo woo woo, thanks to you, sister-in-law!"
After being rescued from the furious Anna by the princess, Melanie lay in her sister-in-law's great bosom and promised with tears in her eyes:
"I will definitely remember your life-saving grace this time. Even if I lose all my teeth, I will never forget it. Woohoo, is my butt swollen?"
"Um... it seems to be a little swollen..."
After lifting Melanie's skirt a little and taking a look at what was going on inside, Princess Veronica comforted her with sympathy in her eyes:
"It's okay, it's okay. I'll have my maid take you to apply some ointment later. The swelling will go down in an hour or two."
"Woo woo, sister-in-law, you are so nice."
Unable to help but stretch out her chubby arms and hug Princess Veronica's neck, Melanie sniffed and promised, gritting her teeth:
"I will definitely repay you well. When you and Big Brother have a baby, I can let him copy my homework for free! I promise I won't charge him a single copper wheel!"
"..."
Thank you for your kindness, but this is not necessary...
Melanie's generous promise made her laugh and cry. After secretly glancing at Anna who was still angry, Princess Veronica changed her position so that her butt wouldn't be touched, and held Melanie in her arms. Then she lowered her voice and asked softly:
"Melanie, can you tell my sister-in-law why you want to make money so much?"
"Well……"
Hearing Princess Veronica's question, Melanie hesitated for a moment, and seemed not to want to say it, but considering the value of her life-saving sister-in-law, she finally answered reluctantly in a low voice:
"Our family used to be very poor. Sister Anna almost died because she had no money... Anyway, although it seems that my eldest brother will never be short of money again, I still think it would be better if he had more money..."
So, because he had no money in the past and almost lost his sister, this child has always been somewhat insecure about money?
"Oh and more!"
When Princess Veronica's eyes softened, Melanie suddenly straightened her neck and whispered with shining eyes:
"I feel especially happy when I count money, even happier than seeing William being scolded by Sister Anna! And more! I also like to listen to the sound of money. The sound of lots of money colliding with each other in my pocket is even better than the song that Teacher Lisa sings to us!"
"..."
Well, the sense of security part is there, but at the end of the day, this is still a natural money-grubber!
Seeing Melanie's eyes glowing when she mentioned counting money, the princess couldn't help but raise her hand and gently pinched her little face that looked like a peeled egg. Then, when Melanie looked at her in confusion, she winked at Anna behind her back.
"The right column is definitely not an option. Anna will definitely be watching you tomorrow. If you dare to run over there again, she will definitely take the bouquet away... How about we change our agreement to the left column?"
"?!!!"
Seeing Princess Veronica's smiling face, Melanie opened her mouth in surprise, and then said with eyes full of surprise:
"Sister-in-law?! What do you mean?"
"Hush! Hush!"
After stealing a glance at Anna, who was holding her attendant and repeatedly asking about the wedding process with concern, Princess Veronica made a finger gesture of silence, then stretched out a little finger and said to Melanie, who looked surprised, with a smile:
"Keep your voice down. Don't blame me if Anna hears you... Come on, let's make a pinky promise!"
"!!!"
She quickly stretched out her fingers and hooked them around Princess Veronica's soft little finger, then put her thumbs together to create a seal. Overjoyed, Melanie couldn't help but hug the princess' neck and gave her a vicious kiss on the face.
"Sister-in-law is the best! I like you 43.96% as much as I like my brother!"
Huh? It's only over 40 percent? And how did you calculate this number with two decimal places?
Seeing Melanie confidently saying that he was her third favorite person, but failing to completely win over the little sister-in-law and only winning over 43.96% of her princess, he couldn't help but raise his hand and pinch Melanie's cheek again, and then asked with a smile:
"What if I endorse you for free and help you sell bouquets? Can I get 50%?"
"Yes! It must be possible!"
After hearing what Princess Veronica said, Melanie couldn't help but exclaimed, and then promised with eyes full of surprise:
"If you don't want a share of the profits, even 60% is possible!"
You are such a little bastard that you can even put a price on your own favorability. After supporting Melanie's butt to prevent her from falling down while dancing, Princess Veronica couldn't help but laugh:
"It's definitely not possible to endorse you. Those old stubborn people in the royal family will go crazy. But if you can get William to call me sister-in-law, you can get some pocket money from me~"
"Well……"
After hearing what Princess Veronica said, Melanie's eyes lit up at first, but then her face fell, and she said in frustration:
"Then forget it..."
Ok?
Unexpectedly, Melanie, who loves money so much, would actually reject her proposal. Princess Veronica couldn't help but gently support her little butt and asked curiously:
"Why forget it? Don't you have the confidence to let William call me sister-in-law?"
"no……"
Melanie shook her head when she heard this, and replied with a look of refusal:
"William will change his words tomorrow, but my eldest brother said that asking for other people's money is a very bad behavior. Apart from him and Sister Anna, you must never ask for other people's money, because after taking that money, you will lose something more important than money."
"That's it..."
Seeing the little sister-in-law who was very moved but still firmly rejected her proposal, Princess Veronica couldn't help but get close to her and rubbed her smooth little face hard. Then she handed her to the maid who came over, squatted down and said with a smile:
"Then I'll give the money to your eldest brother and ask him to give you some pocket money... Go ahead, apply some ointment and have a good sleep, because you have a heavy task tomorrow!"
"it is good!"
After thinking about the princess's suggestion, she realized that she should be able to get such pocket money. Melanie immediately forgot about the pain in her buttocks, and happily left the coat room of the fitting room holding the maid's hand, and then...
"Humph!"
Seeing William, who was being pulled by another maid and waiting for her outside, Melanie's happy little face suddenly darkened, and then she glared at him angrily.
"Traitor! Your dividend is gone!"
"Dividends?"
William, who was memorizing the topographic map of the palace, was startled when he heard this. He then looked up and asked in surprise:
"Sister-in-law agreed to give you the bouquet again?"
"?!"
Melanie didn't expect that William, who was more cunning than a fox, would guess the situation just after she mentioned it. She couldn't help but cover her mouth in annoyance.
However, she immediately realized that this time, not only did she have the support of her sister-in-law, but Sister Anna was going to sleep with her sister-in-law tonight. William couldn't even find anyone to complain to, and he immediately became arrogant again.
"Yes! My sister-in-law promised me. Our agreement will continue. Tomorrow she will throw the bouquet to the left pillar!"
After proudly recounting the agreement between her and her sister-in-law, Melanie stretched out her hand and pulled her lower eyelids, then made a face at her short-sighted traitor brother with a cheerful look on her face:
"Lululu! Go and regret it! If you had just kept silent, you could have gotten 30% of the dividends. Now I won't give you even a single copper wheel!"
"Don't worry about dividends or anything like that."
After looking at Melanie's smug expression, William raised his eyebrows slightly, and then asked slowly:
"I want to ask, the left pillar that you and sister-in-law agreed on, is it her left side? Or is it the left side of the entire auditorium?"
"fool!"
After snorting with disdain, Melanie said confidently:
"Is there any need to ask such a question? Of course it's her... um... or... or..."
"Or maybe you need a helper."
After adjusting his bow tie, William straightened his chest and held up three fingers calmly.
"The pillars in the auditorium must be in pairs. Give me three-tenths of the money, and I'll help you occupy the pillar on the other side."
"..."
