Dress up as a farm girl and make a lot of money with space

"Miss Li, your words are really too - too disrespectful." Xiao Tianyue subconsciously glanced at the door, thinking to himself that it was a good thing that he did not let the servants follow in. If the waiters were also serving here, his dignity would be damaged by Li Mingxia's attitude towards him and the words he said just now.

Li Mingxia glanced at Xiao Tianyue who had a bitter smile on his face. She didn't feel guilty at all. No matter how he said those words, she felt that he was coaxing her like a child. Whether there was any connection or not, since she was uncomfortable, she had to say it out.

"So, what do you think? Do you sincerely want to do dried fruit business with me?" Li Mingxia asked, looking at the five kinds of dried fruits that had been mostly eaten by Xiao Tianyue.

Xiao Tianyue put down the remaining pine nuts in his hand and said, "Of course. How can I not make money from such delicious food? But, do you want to tell me how many dried fruits you can supply me per day?"

Li Mingxia calculated, "I can provide you with 200 kilograms of each type of dried fruit, which adds up to 1,000 kilograms. If we can cooperate for a long time, I plan to make candied fruits to sell in the future, and they are relatively rare candied fruits."

"Rare candied fruit? What kind of candied fruit? Why not now?" Xiao Tianyue asked curiously.

"Strawberries, peaches, watermelons, yellow peaches, apples, and oranges." Li Mingxia's voice was very low, but every word seemed to hit Xiao Tianyue on the head.

"Are you sure? I can only find three of these six kinds of fruits at most, and they are very expensive. Oh, oh, I see, but Miss Yi? But even if the Yi family is willing to help you get these six kinds of fruits, the price is definitely not affordable for people in our town. No, that's not right. It should be said that there are only a handful of people in the capital who can afford your candied fruit. You can't open up the market at all! Are you trying to supply it exclusively to the rich and officials?"

Xiao Tianyue said a lot, completely asking and answering his own questions, but it was not difficult to see the excitement in his heart.

How could Li Mingxia not understand the truth that he understood?

"I know that Master Xiao is very familiar with the market in the town and the prefectural city. Apples, oranges, peaches, and yellow peaches will still be sold at the normal price of preserved fruits. As for the supply, you don't have to worry. I have my own way. But I plan to sell watermelons and strawberries at a high price."

Xiao Tianyue could no longer hear the words watermelon and strawberry. All he could think about were apples, oranges, peaches and yellow peaches.

"How can you guarantee the supply of these goods? These are not ordinary things, and the price is——"

It was not time to serve the candied fruit yet, so Li Mingxia did not plan to say more. "There is no need to talk about this now. Let's talk about the dried fruit first, shall we? Let's set the price. This is the most important thing in my opinion."

Xiao Tianyue glanced at Li Mingxia, barely suppressing his curiosity and doubts, "Tell me what price you want?"

Li Mingxia thought for a moment, "In town, sugar-roasted chestnuts cost twenty-five cents per pound, and I remember the price in the city was thirty cents per pound?"

Li Mingxia had bought sugar-roasted chestnuts when he was in the provincial capital, and vaguely remembered the price.

Xiao Tianyue nodded, "Yes, 30 cents per pound, the price in my dried fruit shop is also this. Do you know the other prices?"

Li Mingxia shook his head and said, "I don't know anything else. I didn't bring much money with me from the city at that time, so I bought a lot of things. I only bought some sugar-roasted chestnuts for my younger brother and sister, and didn't ask about the price of other things."

In fact, money is one aspect. The other aspect is that after Li Mingxia had tasted their so-called signature sugar-roasted chestnuts, she knew that they tasted just average. If the three children liked to eat them, she could just come back and make them for them herself.

"Well, that's fine. I know the price anyway. I'll calculate it for you." Xiao Tianyue nodded. This was consistent with his impression of Li Mingxia's family.

A poor family.

"As for the price, if you only supply me, I can guarantee that you can make a net profit of ten cents for every pound of sugar-roasted chestnuts, and five cents for the remaining items. Of course, these are calculated based on the costs I know and the workers' wages you just mentioned. If you can find a lower way to get the supply, the remaining profit will naturally be higher. If Miss Li is willing, then we can do this business." After Xiao Tianyue calculated carefully, he quoted this price to Li Mingxia.

If Li Mingxia sold it herself, the profit would definitely be higher than what Xiao Tianyue offered. However, if she opened a shop in the town, it would take a lot of time and energy. Just the quantity alone would definitely not be as much as what Xiao Tianyue could digest. So no matter what the considerations were, it was best to cooperate with Xiao Tianyue. Li Mingxia could fully accept this price, and Xiao Tianyue must have calculated the price of white sugar according to the market price. Li Mingxia's actual profit would be higher than this.

"Okay, I can accept this price. But Mr. Xiao, apart from supplying you, if we can supply others, please don't mind." Li Mingxia said after thinking for a moment.

"Supplying one thousand kilograms a day is not a small amount. Can you still supply others?" Xiao Tianyue said in disbelief.

Li Mingxia's small workshop is located in the countryside. How many people can it have? Moreover, the money needed for turnover is not small. Can it still supply other shops?

"It's not clear yet, I just want to tell you, Mr. Xiao, in advance." Li Mingxia didn't want to talk to him about these things anymore, so he just said it perfunctorily.

"Miss Li really doesn't want to talk to me about anything other than making money. Never mind, since that's the case, let's do this. I'll have someone draft a document for you to review. If you have no objection, then let's settle this matter." Xiao Tianyue also saw what Li Mingxia meant, but he didn't care. He stood up, went out, said a few words to the person at the door, and then came back.

"Can it be delivered tomorrow?" Xiao Tianyue asked as he watched Li Mingxia drinking tea with his head down.

"Tomorrow? The day after tomorrow, maybe. Even if it can be delivered tomorrow, it will be evening. Besides, Mr. Xiao, I don't have time to go to town every day. How about this, you send someone to our house at this time every day to pick up the goods and settle the payment?" Li Mingxia suddenly remembered this and said immediately.

It was a question, but the tone used was affirmative. Xiao Tianyue paused and agreed reluctantly.

"Okay, let's do as you say. But shouldn't Miss Li give us some money as drivers' hard work?" Xiao Tianyue naturally didn't care about this little bit of wages, but just found an opportunity to tease him.
