In the yard, Shen Qinglan leaned against the back of a chair, his expression not changing because of Yu Paner's rudeness.

Obviously, Yu Paner had different ideas about the distribution that Shen Qinglan wanted.

Seeing this, Huo Qiyu quickly pulled Yu Paner and whispered:

"Pan'er, my eldest sister-in-law must have had a purpose for doing this. So, since you made the snack, I only want 10% and I'll give you the remaining 40%, okay?"

Yu Paner frowned when she heard what Huo Qiyu said, but ignored it and said to Shen Qinglan:

"Princess, I think your way of cooperation is a bit biased. Although Yu'er and I didn't contribute any money, those rare cakes were made by me."

"To put it another way, if this shop wants to make money, it all depends on me. With my craftsmanship, it will definitely be popular in the city in the future. In this case, Princess, do you think this profit ratio is appropriate?"

Yu Pan'er was full of confidence at this moment. She just didn't believe that she came through time and space just to work for others?

When she was in Lingcheng before, she was able to thrive in Lingcheng Women's Academy with these skills, and she even helped the original body get rid of those annoying family members.

Later, because of a letter from Huo Qiyu, she made up her mind to develop in Beijing, and she also firmly believed that she could make a difference in Beijing.

But now, she was about to fail at the first step, so Yu Paner naturally could not agree.

Shen Qinglan looked at the girl in front of him, her chin raised with a hint of pride, and couldn't help feeling a little weird.

She had met Yu Paner several times and actually had a good impression of her.

After all, although Yu Paner came from a poor family, she did not have that petty and inferior feeling at all.

But... Shen Qinglan could see some contempt in the other person's eyes from time to time.

It was as if Yu Pan'er had an inexplicable superior attitude towards everyone, as if she was a god looking down on all living beings.

In her eyes, all living beings are like ants.

Shen Qinglan didn't know why Yu Paner was like this, but she just wanted to make money with Yu Paner's skills, so she naturally didn't care about these things.

Now, listening to Yu Pan'er's words, Shen Qinglan pondered for a while before speaking:

"Miss Yu, I'm afraid you haven't figured it out yet. What I provide you is not just this shop and the clerk, but also security."

Upon hearing this, Yu Paner looked at Shen Qinglan in confusion.

Shen Qinglan smiled and played with the ring on her hand, and said slowly:

"It is true that Miss Yu's craftsmanship is very special, and it seems that Miss Yu also knows many strange things, but just because of this, this princess does not necessarily have to be Miss Yu."

"I cooperated with Miss Yu because of my second sister's face. She recommended me in many ways, and I didn't want to go against her wishes, but it was clear that Miss Yu seemed to be very ambitious."

When Yu Paner listened to Shen Qinglan's words, her heart sank. For no reason, she felt that Shen Qinglan seemed angry.

But what if she was angry? Would her hard work be trampled on in vain? She had thought that this Princess Zhan was pretty good before, but now it seemed that she was no different from the capitalists of their time.

Huo Qiyu, who was standing by, felt the strong smell of gunpowder between the two sides. She pulled Shen Qinglan's sleeve lightly with some fear and pleaded in a low voice: "Sister-in-law..."

Shen Qinglan glanced at Huo Qiyu, and seeing the pleading look in her eyes, he could only sigh helplessly, rubbed her head, and then spoke to Yu Paner:

"This princess wants 50% of the profits, not only because this shop and the clerk are mine, but more importantly, if Miss Yu gets angry, she will definitely attract attention and make a move on you."

"In the capital, every three steps there is a first-rank official, and every five steps there is a royal relative. How can Miss Yu live in peace?"

"If you don't have the protection of Prince Zhan's Mansion, do you believe it, Miss Yu, someone will come and force you to hand over the formula soon?"

Yu Paner's heart started beating wildly with fear when she heard Shen Qinglan's words.

She tried hard to look at Shen Qinglan, trying to see if there was any intentional threat on Shen Qinglan's face, but there was none...

Shen Qinglan's eyes were burning and his words seemed very certain, not like he was talking nonsense at all.

When Huo Qiyu heard this, he quickly pulled Yu Paner and whispered:

"Pan'er, what my eldest sister-in-law said is right, especially the Shixiang Pavilion, which is the property of the Ninth Prince. It has always been famous for its pastries and is the number one pastry shop in the capital."

"And once your cake is released, it will definitely attract their attention. If something goes wrong... not only will the recipe be stolen, but I'm afraid you might even lose your life."

At this moment, Huo Qiyu has fully understood the meaning of the profit sharing that Shen Qinglan wanted.

To put it bluntly, it means more like protection money.

Although she is from the Zhan Prince's Mansion, she is not as important as Shen Qinglan, the mistress of the Zhan Prince's Mansion. Therefore, it is safer if Shen Qinglan comes forward in this matter.

Shen Qinglan was not in a hurry. He just watched Yu Paner's expression change several times. Then he saw Yu Paner apologize to him:

"I'm sorry, Princess. I didn't know this. I was wrong. Please forgive me."

Shen Qinglan didn't say anything, just asked: "Then cooperation..."

"Just do as the princess wishes." Yu Pan'er gritted her teeth and finally agreed.

Not only that, Yu Paner naturally would not really ask for 40%. She only discussed with Huo Qiyu that she would take 30% and Huo Qiyu would take 20%.

Huo Qiyu, however, had a good personality and didn't care at all about how much of the share she got.

Anyway...

In fact, Huo Qiyu knew that Shen Qinglan only wanted her to get familiar with the management of the shop so that she would not be completely in the dark about her dowry shop after she got married in the future.

Now that the profit sharing has been agreed upon, all that remains is the reform of the shop.

Huo Qi Yu naturally had no suggestions on this, but Yu Pan'er seemed to have a lot of ideas. She said she wanted to build a display cabinet with glass, which would make the pastries look more exquisite.

Shen Qinglan was confused. Glass? What is that?

Shen Qinglan didn't know, so he asked directly. Yu Paner was a little surprised and looked at Shen Qinglan with a bit of arrogance. She explained, and then said with some hint of meaning:

"Pan'er thought the princess knew everything. Has she never seen glass?"

Obviously, Yu Paner was still dissatisfied with the share that Shen Qinglan had just given her, so she was so provocative.

Shen Qinglan was not angry. There were so many strange things in the world, how could she know them all?

However, this glass is quite interesting. Shen Qinglan hesitated for a while and said:

"I have never seen the glass you mentioned. Can you use crystal instead?"

"Crystal?" Yu Pan'er was stunned for a moment, and then realized that there was no such thing as glass in this era, so she could only nod and say, "That's fine."

Shen Qinglan then instructed Shuyu: "There seem to be a few crystals in the dowry list that the emperor gave me. Ask someone to bring them to Miss Yu later."

Shu Yu glanced at Yu Pan'er sideways, obviously not liking her very much, but he still did not intend to offend Shen Qinglan, so he nodded in agreement.

The rest was all about the cake categories. Shen Qinglan simply didn't listen anymore. He just stood up, gave instructions to the two of them, and left the shop.

As soon as Shen Qinglan left the shop, he instructed Shuwen:

"Send someone to Lingcheng to investigate this Yu Paner thoroughly."

How could a woman from a farming family know so many things that others didn't know?

Also, was her acquaintance with Huo Qiyu an accident or intentional?

In the current situation, with such a person appearing in their Prince Zhan's mansion, Shen Qinglan had to suspect the other party's intentions.
