You know, you really know.
After listening to Melanie's '50% increase secret', the two female officials brought by Queen Veronica to help with the accounting couldn't help but exchange glances, their faces showing a rather strained expression.
Although it doesn't sound very moral, according to the records in this child's account book, if she did that, she could really increase her income by another 50%, or even more, so in a sense, Prince Lyon's sister is indeed a business genius.
"Okay, I'll let you pass."
After imagining the scene of two little ghosts getting up in the middle of the night, sleepily carrying buckets to school, and secretly pouring water on the door hinges, Veronica couldn't help but chuckle, and then, while reaching out to touch Melanie's little head, she promised with a smile:
"What your sister-in-law promised you will definitely be done, the next investment will be doubled!"
"Sister-in-law is the best!"
Overjoyed, she pounced over, hugged Veronica's leg and rubbed it vigorously, then Melanie raised her little face, her eyes full of hope, and said:
"Then, in addition to investment, can other things also be doubled?"
Veronica couldn't help but be slightly taken aback when she heard this.
"Other things?"
"It's the reward for reporting to you in time when other beautiful sisters appear around big brother."
Without hesitation to sell her own big brother, Melanie blinked her big eyes and said:
"Although big brother is not that kind of person, but he is stable, has a good personality, looks good, and takes special care of his family... In short, my big brother, who is full of advantages, will definitely be targeted by many beautiful sisters, so you must be strictly guarded!
Of course, as big brother's most beloved sister under the age of ten, I will definitely stand unconditionally on big brother's side, but who made me meet the best sister-in-law? So..."
"It needs more money?"
"Yes!"
After nodding her little head vigorously, Melanie counted her fingers and said with a serious face:
"Mainly, in addition to helping to watch big brother, I also have to be busy with studying, and I have to manage our money-making company, and go to find other opportunities to make money. Every one of these is very hard, and a good woman as generous and considerate as sister-in-law will definitely not have the heart to see me so hard, right?"
"Yes, yes, yes~"
Looking at Lyon, who appeared silently behind Melanie, his face slightly dark, Veronica couldn't help but smile, then leaned down and gently pinched Melanie's little cheek, and said with a hint of teasing:
"You little miser... Aren't you afraid that he will be angry with you for selling your big brother like this?"
"Big brother is so good, he definitely won't blame me."
After hearing Veronica's teasing, Melanie secretly said in her heart that there was a chance, then smiled and said:
"And my money is big brother's money, if I earn more, big brother can also be much richer~"
"Hmm? Is your big brother still short of money?"
"Yes, short!"
Melanie couldn't help but collapse when she heard this, and then said with some helplessness:
"Sister-in-law, big brother is actually very stubborn in some places, and he also has a bit of that 'machismo', he would rather go to work honestly than spend your money.
In short, although we don't lack food and clothing, our family's monthly surplus is not much. I guess big brother just wants face, and is afraid that spending your money will be said to be eating soft rice or something, so..."
"So?"
"So I'll eat this soft rice for him!"
After patting her little chest, Melanie steadily hugged the thigh of her rich sister-in-law, and raised her little face righteously and said:
"As big brother's most adorable sister, how can I watch my best big brother suffer? I'll eat the soft rice that big brother doesn't dare to eat, and I'll lose the face that big brother is afraid of losing!
So sister-in-law, please treat me well! I'll take it all! As long as I have a piece of meat to eat, then big brother and Anna will have a piece of meat to eat, and William will have three bowls to wash! Sister-in-law, you... hey?"
After discovering that the back of her neck was slightly cold, and her feet, wearing rabbit slippers, suddenly left the ground, Melanie couldn't help but tremble all over, then turned her head suddenly with a look of horror.
"Sister Anna? You're not... big brother?!"
Seeing Lyon, who lifted her up from behind, Melanie's eyes first showed a look of surprise, but probably remembering what she had just said, she quickly shrank her neck and blinked her eyes and said softly:
"Big brother, you're back... you... when did you come back?"
"From when you took William to water the school gate!"
Damn it!
Looking at Lyon's narrowed eyes, Melanie couldn't help but secretly cry out that it was not good.
Although big brother can't bear to hit my butt, he is quite willing to go to Anna to complain, today's beating is probably unavoidable!
"Don't be angry, Melanie and I are just playing around~"
Reaching out and gently supporting Melanie's armpits, taking her back from Lyon's hands, Veronica put Melanie, whose eyes were rolling around, on her lap, and then praised with amazement:
"I don't know how you taught them, these two little guys, one knows 'business' and the other knows 'people', they are both rare geniuses, even without the platform that you and I provide, they will probably become quite remarkable big figures in the future."
"Knows business? Knows people?"
"To put it simply, although the methods and focuses are different, they both have particularly outstanding vision, and each has a fairly mature logic."
After affectionately pinching Melanie's little cheek, Veronica explained:
"William seems to be a bit out of touch with human feelings, but he actually has the ability to see through the connections between things, and find the key to them at a glance, and can always grab a solution that hits the nail on the head from a large amount of information.
And Melanie, although she doesn't understand 'business' as well as he does, she understands 'people' far better than him. This child seems to be born with the ability to see the desires in other people's hearts, and can figure out what kind of choices a person will make when faced with a problem... um... like helping me keep an eye on you."
After admitting without hesitation that she had bribed the 'little spy', Veronica said with a smile:
"At first, I wasn't very sure, but now I'm very sure that she probably saw my thoughts from the beginning, knowing that I didn't really need to keep an eye on you, but hoped to use this as an excuse to get closer to her, and to get closer to you and your family, so she is deliberately cooperating with me.
As for the actions just now, rather than saying that she really wants money, it is better to say that she is catering to my thoughts, hoping to turn around and help you hold me back, so although I am coaxing her, she is also trying to coax me in turn... um... but she really likes money too."
