Chapter 458 - 458 458 Some Uncertainties

Chapter 458: Chapter 458: Some Uncertainties Chapter 458: Chapter 458: Some Uncertainties Although she believed that the Eldest Prince was definitely not a stingy person, she couldn’t bring herself to outright ask him for something.

If she were to buy it, then that would be a different story.

“Your Highness, there’s something I would like to consult with you,” Caisang said.

“What is it? Please speak,” the Eldest Prince responded instantly.

“I’ve heard from a friend that you own a shop in the city called the Hundred Fragrances Shop, is that correct?” Caisang asked.

“Hundred Fragrances Shop? It should be.”

The Eldest Prince nodded, albeit unsurely.

All of his assets were managed by others, so he did not always know all the details.

Since Lin Caisang had brought it up though, it must mean that she had looked into it. There should be a Hundred Fragrances Shop under his name, right?

“Should be?”

Caisang wanted to laugh after hearing his response.

She had been contemplating whether asking him might be asking for too much, but she hadn’t expected him to be unsure of his own assets due to their large number.

“Is it?”

The Eldest Prince still seemed uncertain.

“I once instructed my follower, that any business can be carried out except for whoremongering and pimping, but the Hundred Fragrances Shop…”

The name suggested a place of indulgence and pleasure. How could he own such a place?

“It’s a shop for fragrances.”

Hearing his comment, Caisang blushed and immediately explained.

“A fragrance shop? Yes, I should have one,”

When the Eldest Prince heard it was not a brothel, his attitude changed immediately. If it wasn’t an indecent place, it was certainly possible it was one of his assets.

“If Miss Caisang wishes, I can immediately order my men to bring the deed over to you.”

“No, that’s not what I meant. I meant you could have the shop valued and I will pay you its market price,” Caisang said.

Getting something for nothing wouldn’t sit right with her. Besides, even at market price, she would be making a major profit since fragrance shops were quite profitable.

Rare and exotic fragrances could earn a lot of money.

“How can this be?”

The Eldest Prince disapproved of her proposal and shook his head instantly.

“Miss Caisang, you saved my aunt’s life. You are my benefactor. Just a shop is hardly worth mentioning,”

Let alone a shop, he would have been willing to give her more for saving his aunt’s life. This was not a debt he took lightly.

This was within the royal family. If it had been anyone else, the poison his aunt had been struck with was no secret to him. If he wanted Caisang to save her, it could very well have cost him his entire fortune.

“Miss, do you like fragrances?”

Suddenly, the Elder Princess questioned Caisang.

She found the young woman familiar but couldn’t quite place her.

However, she had heard that this was doctor Caisang’s first visit to Jianan City. Considering that she herself hadn’t left Jianan City in years, how could she recognize her?

“It’s not exactly about liking fragrances. I study medicine and can make some common medicinal fragrances like sleep aids and calming incense, but with my secret addition, they differ from other people’s fragrances,”

Caisang turned to her and explained.

“I observed that nearly everyone in Jianan City has a lingering fragrance about them, so I thought this business must be lucrative. On my friend’s suggestion, I shamelessly asked the Eldest Prince for a fragrance shop.

If I were to look for a new shop here in this expensive city, I might not find a good one even in a year and a half. Of course, making the Eldest Prince suffer a loss would be wrong of me.”
