Farmhouse life after traveling back to ancient times

Wu Ziwei added: "I knew that Madam Du was different from those gossipy women in the village. This time I came..."

She kept it a secret on purpose, but saw Du Wenxiu sitting there calmly, without even moving his eyelids.

"Madam Du, you and I are both in the pickle business, with small capital and slim profits, and we are competing with each other. It's really a waste of energy."

"In my humble opinion, it would be better for both of us to merge into one company, so that we can no longer restrict each other and develop together. Wouldn't that be better?"

Du Wenxiu snorted in his heart. After talking for so long, his true colors were finally revealed.

She looked up at Wu Ziwei, who was full of confidence, and said with a smile, "Madam Wu, you worry too much."

"Since the establishment of Wenyuefang, I have never thought about competing with anyone. I just walked my own path."

Wu Ziwei's expression changed slightly: "Madam Du means that our Wu's Pickle Shop is not worthy of being a competitor of Wenyuefang?"

"That's not true." Du Wenxiu laughed and said gently:

"Ms. Wu, you are mistaking it. Back then, Wenyuefang started out selling low-end pickles, selling a jar for only a few dozen coins. Later, Wu's Pickle Shop suddenly emerged."

"Mrs. An and I feel that our abilities are limited. If we compete with others for the market, our profits will only become thinner and thinner."

Wu Ziwei thought about how she had been struggling to grab the market share and engaging in a price war with Wen Yuefang, which had led to the breakdown of her own capital chain. If it had not been for the investment from a noble person, there would probably be no Wu's Pickle Shop by now.

His face turned blue and white.

Du Wenxiu didn't know what she was thinking, so he continued, "So we withdrew from the pickle market in Shihe Town. Madam Wu should know about this."

Wu Ziwei knew this of course, and was very pleased with herself for having squeezed out Wen Yue Fang, and was proud of herself for a long time.

"Later, we will focus on the mid- to high-end market, while the workshop in Taohua Village will still make low-priced pickles."

"Hey, Madam Wu, you know, there's nothing we can do about it. With so many sisters eating with us, we can't just leave them alone, right?"

Wu Ziwei nodded, what she said was indeed true.

"So, Madam Wu, we are not competitors. You came to me today to talk about these things, but it's not the right time to do so."

"Why don't I introduce you to Madam Chi from the Taohua Village workshop? Maybe we can chat for a while and maybe we can come up with some new ideas."

Wu Ziwei's face became increasingly ugly.

Madam Chi?

Do I still need Du Wenxiu to introduce me?

The two of them have been cursing at each other for several rounds, so there is no need for anyone to introduce them.

Thinking of the fierce Madam Chi in the Taohua Village workshop, Wu Ziwei couldn't help but curl her lips and wanted to complain a few words.

Du Wenxiu lowered her head to drink tea, covering the slightly upturned corners of her mouth with the tea bowl.

She had guessed that Wu Ziwei was most likely a fellow villager who had traveled through time, but she was surprised at her naive character.

In this age when teenagers become parents and have children, the modern idea that a person in his twenties is still a child is somewhat inapplicable.

The Wu lady in front of me was so carefree and unrestrained. If she were in the past or the present, at most someone would smile and say, "You are still young."

But here, it is too ignorant.

What was she thinking when she complained to Du Wenxiu about her partner?

"Madam Du, that Madam Chi is so vulgar. It's hard for you to cooperate with her for so long. I really feel bad for you."

Du Wenxiu put down the tea bowl and knocked it with a crisp sound.

She looked at Wu Ziwei, who was still immersed in the plot development in her imagination, with a half-smile, and couldn't help but find it a little funny.

"When Wenyuefang first moved to the county town, it was thanks to Madam Chi who worked day and night and helped us without expecting anything in return that we were able to get our first big order."

"I am just a woman, but I can grow my business to this scale, which is inseparable from the great help of my sisters."

"If Madam Wu wants to cooperate, you might as well report your own scale and output. If there is a suitable opportunity, we can cooperate twice to see how it goes."

Wu Ziwei looked at Du Wenxiu with surprise, her expression full of innocence, and Du Wenxiu couldn't help but lose interest.

Does this girl think of herself as a man?

This kind of pretense, when I was still a recognized good guy in my previous life, I didn't fall for it, but now I use it again...

She really regarded the ancients as fools——

Wu Ziwei was indeed surprised. She thought she had made herself clear and abandoned the more vulgar Madam Chi.

Choosing the self with better temperament and more enterprising spirit is the best choice for Du Wenxiu.

That Madam Chi's loud voice is not as impressive as her appearance even if she is taken out to discuss business.

Every time I went out to deliver goods, the shopkeepers were always gentle and amiable when they saw me. Some people even complained to me that Madam Chi was cold and difficult to talk to.

Even if you act coquettishly a few times, you can sell a few more jars.

So every time I would ask someone to load up a dozen more jars of goods, and after making the rounds, I would always be able to sell them all and go home.

Even my sisters-in-law often boast about their abilities.

This Madam Du is not as clear-headed as her sister-in-law who is like a village woman?

"This... Madam Du, why don't you make a decision in a hurry? Why don't you think about it carefully? A well-rounded talent like me would feel a little regretful if I couldn't cooperate with Madam Du."

Wu Ziwei was a little confused, but she still tried her best to fight for herself.

I don’t know if it’s because of the hot weather recently, but the pickles from the pickle shop always have problems when they are delivered. They go bad, become rotten, or grow mold...

After a few times, some merchants turned to Madam Chi to get goods. Even if she went there in person and begged them with sweet words, the effect was not very obvious.

Only then did she come to Wenyuefang at the urging of her sister-in-law. If she had not been left with no other choice, how could she, who is so proud and arrogant, be willing to be inferior to others?

"No need for that. Madam Wu is a talented lady. I can see that." Du Wenxiu's eyes were full of sincerity.

"It's just that we have always had the right partners, and we always value integrity when doing business. If I abandon Madam Chi because of Madam Wu, I'm afraid Madam Wu will be wary of cooperating with me."

"But I also believe that a person as capable as Madam Wu can do anything well. She doesn't have to hang herself on our tree. Isn't that right, Madam Wu?"

"Oh." Wu Ziwei sighed and looked at Du Wenxiu with a hint of mutual admiration in her eyes.

"I know that Madam Du understands me. I had no choice but to come here to talk to Madam Du about this. Since Madam Du has no intention, let's leave it at that for now."

Du Wenxiu personally saw Wu Ziwei off. This person is simple-minded and thinks he is smart. It would be best if they could treat him with respect and live in peace.

If I offend her badly, she will remember to trip me up someday and I might even think she has suffered a great injustice.

In business, harmony is the most important thing.

Du Wenxiu politely sent her away. Turning back, she saw Du Wenchan and Guan Shaorong looking out the door. She couldn't help but smile and said,

"You two, if you have any questions, just ask me. Why act like this?"
