Farmhouse life after traveling back to ancient times

When Chen Wenju heard that there was a way, he immediately became excited.

"Madam Du, I don't know if this means buying it out and supplying it exclusively to our Chen family in the future? What's the price? You might as well tell me."

Du Wenxiu smiled slightly, found a chair and sat down, slowly smoothing out the wrinkles on her dress.

"Oh, Madam Du, what's the relationship between our two families? It's too much to be so rude, haha."

Chen Wenju was anxious, and when he waited for a while but she didn't speak, he just laughed it off.

"Master Chen is wrong. We at Wenyuefang were able to buy watermelons thanks to Master Chen's connections, but Master Chen should also know that once Lu Sangui reaches the city, it is only a matter of time before we find him. This matter cannot be used to make a fuss."

"Haha, yes, yes, Madam Du is absolutely right. But this..." Chen Wenjuan flattered while sitting down opposite Du Wenxiu.

"And even if our two families have a good relationship, we should not give away the money we have earned to others, right?"

Chen Wenju also knew what Du Wenxiu meant. He smiled awkwardly, hoping that she would not ask for such a high price.

As if knowing that he was worried, Du Wenxiu spoke slowly: "Master Chen, don't panic. I am doing this for your own good."

Chen Wenju looked at her with a puzzled look on his face: "Why did Madam Du say that?"

"Master Chen, then I will speak frankly." Du Wenxiu said with a faint smile.

"Just say it, just say it, what is the relationship between our two families, is there anything that cannot be said directly?"

"My fermented beans mixed with watermelon are already very expensive. Even at this price, only the rich and powerful can afford it."

"The purchase price is high, and the price is high. I was thinking that in addition to supplying Chen's Restaurant, I would open up another sales channel. This way, Chen's Restaurant would not be overly stressed. It could also boost Chen's Restaurant's sales of our watermelon bean sauce business. Wouldn't it be great if it could flourish across the board?"

Chen Wenju couldn't help but jump up: "What did you say? Boost my family's business? Who can boost it? Does my Chen family need others to boost it? What a joke. Madam Du, what you said is simply ridiculous. Who are you looking down on?"

"Oh, so that's how it is." Du Wenxiu pretended to be surprised and covered his mouth.

"I heard Master Chen complain that our watermelon and bean paste are too expensive. I guess... I just didn't know what I was doing. Master Chen, please don't blame me."

As she spoke, Yingying stood up and bowed, which made Chen Wenju blush.

"This...it's because I didn't explain it clearly, so it's not Madam Du's fault." Chen Wenju murmured.

Then, he held the fan in one hand and raised his voice: "But, Madam Du, don't worry, these watermelon and bean paste will be sold to my Chen's Restaurant. There will be enough to sell, but there will be no problem."

Du Wenxiu smiled and said, "This is the best. I believe what Master Chen said. Why don't we talk about the price of buying out the exclusive agency right now..."

After returning home, Chen Wenju still felt that his mind was not completely clear.

He frowned and thought about it: Why did that woman raise the purchase price, but I always felt like I was getting a good deal?

"Hey, things are valuable because they are rare. They have the recipe for watermelon bean paste, so we can't listen to them."

He lay down on the low couch, and the pretty maid smiled as she put the peeled grapes into his mouth, and then caught the grape seeds he spit out with her hands.

The maid chuckled: "Young Master, you are worrying for nothing. If someone's recipe is your favorite, why don't we just buy it at a high price and make it ourselves? Why bother sighing and worrying about this?"

Chen Wenju glanced over and said, "Hey!"

"What's the use of just having a recipe? That kid Lu Sangui only gave me ten watermelons in one summer. Even if I had a recipe, where could I get so many watermelons?"

"This woman is quite capable."

Regardless of what Chen Wenjuan thought, Du Wenxiu was in a very good mood because he was able to negotiate such a big deal.

"Sister, we have promised the watermelon and bean paste to the Chen family restaurant. How can we explain this to the Chi family? Sister Yue Niang will be back soon. What should we say when she asks us?"

Du Wenchan was somewhat dissatisfied with the decision of her sisters.

In terms of closeness, Chen Wenju could never compare to An Yueniang in his heart.

Moreover, this workshop was run by my sister and Yue Niang together. How could they supply special products only to outsiders without leaving some for the Chi family, whom Yue Niang married into?

Du Wenxiu smiled and explained to her: "Don't be upset, I did this for a reason."

Du Wenchan hurriedly pretended to listen attentively, but saw Du Wenxiu turn around and ask A Luo if Haisheng was well-behaved at home today.

Du Wenchan was extremely anxious, but she still patiently waited for her to finish talking about the child.

Du Wenxiu took Haisheng from A'luo's arms and walked towards the main room with the child in her arms, apparently to feed him.

Du Wenchan couldn't wait any longer, so she followed her in and sat aside without any hesitation, waiting for her sister to speak.

"You." Du Wenxiu smiled helplessly and reached out to nod her head.

"We can't even supply the Chi family with their current sales volume, and we have to develop new products and ask them to put a lot of effort into promoting them. What will we do if we can't supply them later?"

Du Wenchan seemed to understand, but she didn't quite understand. She asked blankly, "We limit the supply. Scarcity makes things more valuable."

Du Wenxiu smiled and asked her, "Nowadays, such a small jar of soybeans costs three hundred coins. The Chi family has always sold our mid-range pickles. Now that we have added watermelon soybeans, how do you want them to explain the value of the watermelon to others?"

"Everyone only believes what they have seen. If you suddenly tell them that there is a kind of melon that costs a thousand coins just to eat, I'm afraid they will label you a profiteer."

Du Wenchan couldn't help but stick out her tongue and said, "It's only because I know the purchase price of our watermelons. Otherwise, I wouldn't believe that there is any kind of naturally grown watermelon that can be sold at such a high price. I dare not even think about it."

Du Wenxiu smiled and said, "It will only benefit our workshop and Yue Niang if we hand over the watermelon and bean paste to the Chen family for sale."

All I could tell her was just one of the reasons.

The inside story is known to everyone, but it is not convenient to make it public.

The weather is getting hotter.

That day, Du Wenchan was returning home from work when she met Zhang Yapo coming out of her house.

When he saw her come back, he greeted her warmly.

"Oh, Madam Du, it's been a long time since we last met. You really are getting more and more beautiful, haha."

Du Wenchan smiled in response, but was a little confused as to what she was doing there.

"Sister, is our family going to build a new workshop?"

Du Wenchan went back to wash her face, then went to ask Du Wenxiu.

Du Wenxiu spread out a picture of the yard in front of him and said casually, "There is enough space for the workshop now, why do we need to build a new one?"

Du Wenchan also came over to take a look: "I ran into Zhang Yapo when I came back... Hey, whose yard is this? It looks really nice."

"Really? You think so too. You and I, sisters, really have the same thoughts." Du Wenxiu said with a smile.
