Guide to raise my cutie husbands

Chapter 736: The most expensive mushrooms !

Yu Dong pursed her lips when she thought about how her mers would be troubled in case she was caught by the current crown princess. In fact, she knew that she was just a commoner, if the current crown prince wanted her to work for her then there was no way Yu Dong will be able to refuse her. And in case she was to refuse a direct order then maybe it will be her family who will be caught in unnecessary trouble, Yu Dong felt her head throb, she was just growing some fruits and extracting oil, how come she was suddenly dragged into the politics of the imperial court?         

    

" But of course, if you are my subordinate, then I will be able to protect you," said Magistrate Li as she looked at Yu Dong and spoke in a firm voice, in fact, if she wanted she could have forced Yu Dong to work for her but she did not want to do that to Yu Dong who was rather capable in her eyes. She wanted her to understand that she was here as her friend and not someone who was going to bring harm to her.      

She was taking a step back and giving Yu Dong a chance to survive in the future, if she was wise then she will know what was the right thing for her to do but if she was a fool then Magistrate Li had no desire to waste her time with the girl.

Yu Dong of course knew that Magistrate Li was only here to help her because she had some capabilities that were of use to Magistrate Li. She was no fool who will think that a big official like Magistrate Li would come to help her out of nowhere just because she felt sympathy for her.      

With her eyes slightly narrowed Yu Dong looked at Magistrate Li and then asked in a soft yet strict voice, " And what do you want in return?"      

" See? I told you. She is no novice who does not know how to play," Qiao Sha chuckled as she looked at her dear friend who was surprised by Yu Dong's question. She already warned Magistrate Li that Yu Dong will definitely catch on to her hidden intentions other than wanting to stop her from going to the crown empress's side. But her friend, Miss Li did not believe her thinking that Yu Dong was just a villager and would not see through her intentions unless she told them.     

Magistrate Li even thought that she will be able to see Yu Dong's grateful expression when she will extend her helping hand to her. Haha, she was really a bit too naive—— look, not only Yu Dong caught her intentions, she was even looking at her with those suspicion-filled eyes.      

Magistrate Li was stunned when she heard Yu Dong's question, she thought that she will subtly ask Yu Dong to help her protect this territory with her while making it strong. She did not expect that the woman will actually catch on to her motives even before she could speak about them——     

She chuckled softly, and though she was surprised at Yu Dong's wisdom, she was rather satisfied as well. If she had to take care of a stupid ally then it would really be a tad bit too annoying, which was why Magistrate Li was not offended if anything she was rather impressed.      

" You got me," she said with a soft smile. " I came here not only to ask for handing you protection but also because I wanted to ask for your help."      

With a solemn look in her eyes, Magistrate Li looked at Yu Dong and placed her teacup on the table as she stopped smiling and then said to Yu Dong, " I want you to add my name to the list of owners of the oil mill. Do not worry, I will not recklessly move your shares or the money that you all are going to earn, I am just doing this for the sake of protecting the oil mill since I do not want it to fall into the hands of the crown princess."

" Secondly, I will be in charge of making sure that the oil mill that is run by you all will control the flow of the market of the town as well as the imperial city."      

" And finally, I will also like it if you start mass producing the strawberries in the village and try to develop this village as much as you can—- that way, even the imperial court will have to admit to my skills and promote me to a higher position which will be beneficial to me —— until then all I ask you is to give me thirty per cent shares of all the business, such that I will be able to help the ex crown princess to raise an army in the dark."      

Magistrate Li exhaled a long deep breath and then continued speaking, " The more beneficial we are to the imperial family, the less the crown princess will try to harm us for the time being since she is not as strong without announcing the death of her sister which will make her the sole heir. She will tread carefully around us and that will give enough time to the second princess to come back and regain what she has lost."      Follow current s on No(v)elFire.net

Yu Dong did not say anything for a long time instead she stayed silent and carefully pondered over what Magistrate Li has told her and then said in a questioning voice, " You do understand that this can be counted as treason right?"      

Her words caused the entire family to suck in a cold breath while Magistrate Li smiled and calmly nodded. " You are right but that is only when we are caught …" She turned to look at Qiao Sha who was studying her nails and said, " I am certain that Marquis Qiao will not let that happen, right?"      

" You can count on me," Qiao Sha smirked as she looked at Yu Dong. " The eldest princess might look really threatening but that is because she has someone beside her who helps her from the dark but the thing is his schemes are at most good for the imperial palace, I am afraid that he cannot be of much use when I am standing in front of him."
