I was a queen in ancient times, no, a maid!

When Cheng Yu came, she specially brought a box of fruits she made and gave it to Cai Kun to taste.

"This is the fresh flower cake we made. Please have a taste, sir."

"I'm sure you made a lot of money from the mooncakes last time. We made them in our own workshop. As long as we make a little profit on the cost, you can decide the price in the market."

"You are selling to Jiangbei City, officials, and wealthy people. These are beyond our reach."

"Sir, this is like sending you money. Tell me, is this box of thirty coins expensive?"

There are ten cakes in a box, and the box costs fifty cents.

Cai Kun packaged it in exquisite food boxes and sold it at a high price of one or two taels per box.

Of course, Cheng Yu sold it to Cai Kun for fifty wen a box. Even if he sold it for ten liang a box, Cheng Yu would not be jealous of the money he made. After all, the other party had connections and he was also selling a network of connections.

Cai Kun looked at Cheng Yu and then laughed.

"You are a good business girl, but you are not greedy."

"I thought you wanted to sell it to me for one or two hundred coins a box."

Cheng Yu smiled lightly, "We are all businessmen, and you know the market price. I definitely wouldn't dare to deceive you, sir."

"Then it's according to your price."

"But you have to hurry up. The fruit used for the New Year is more than the mooncakes used for the Mid-Autumn Festival. In addition, you have to do one more thing. Pack the five kinds of cakes I want into a box, two of each, ten pieces per box, and pack them into boxes for me. I will give you an extra three cents per box for the packaging."

"But is it suitable?"

Cheng Yu frowned slightly, "Sir, you also know that the people I hire to do the work are all women. They are diligent, so maybe I can give them a few cents more?"

Cai Kun thought about it for a moment, then said, "I promise you."

"Just do it. I'll take whatever you want, but you can't do less this time."

"sure, no problem."

Cheng Yu readily agreed and gave her box of cakes to Cai Kun.

Cai Kun asked Cheng Yu to sit down, have a cup of tea, and watch the performance before leaving. Cheng Yu wanted to refuse, but heard Cai Kun say that the pot of tea they were drinking cost five taels.

Cheng Yu sat down immediately and drank three large cups in a row.

In the end, he almost took away the tea leaves left on the table.

Cheng Yu asked Cai Kun to draw up a contract. Cai Kun immediately wrote a written contract for the pastries, signed it, and handed it to Cheng Yu, and also paid a deposit of thirty taels.

She took the documents away first.

Someone will deliver the thirty taels later.

To do business, one must trust people. If there is no trust at all, how can she do business?

Cheng Yu then went back.

After leaving Fenglou, I turned and headed towards the braised pork shop, when suddenly a person stood in front of me.

When she took a closer look, it was the man who had frightened her for several days.

"My Lord, are you here to accuse me? I have already told the young lady my feelings, please let me go."

I'm already honest, please let me go.

Zhao Shiyan's heart was broken into eight hundred pieces again.

"I didn't say anything, I didn't do anything, why do you want me to let you go?"

Zhao Shiyan was standing in front of her.

Judging from the appearance, this man should be about 1.87 meters tall.

Cheng Yu raised her head and took a look, but she really didn't dare to meet his eyes. For one thing, she felt guilty, and she didn't know what she was thinking. She felt uncomfortable rejecting someone she didn't like.

Secondly, your neck will get sore if you look up at people.

"Can you give me a reason to reject me?"

"Not worthy." Cheng Yu blurted out.

Zhao Shiyan lowered the business, “What? I am not worthy?”

Cheng Yu's eyes were flustered, and he immediately explained, "No, it's me who is not worthy."

"You are worthy. As long as I am willing, you are a perfect match, the best match." Zhao Shiyan said angrily, "How can I make you dissatisfied? I want to marry you, but you are still unwilling?"

Cheng Yu's belated rebellion got to his head.

"Do I have to agree to marry you? You are forcing me. This is not love. You are just being harassed by someone you can't get."

"It is indeed a bit commotion." The man said in a muffled voice.

Cheng Yu didn't hear it carefully.

She took a deep breath and suppressed her anger. She found that she could not reason with men, or was it that all men were unreasonable?

Compared to the Crown Prince, she likes Zhao Rulan more.

"My Lord, you are of noble status and can have any woman you want. You are just acting on impulse now. You think someone like me can cook and is pretty, so you will inevitably like me a little bit. But this is just a little bit of liking. The kind of love that goes deep into the bone marrow is true love."

She tried to influence the man in front of her by acting as a saint, making him realize clearly that his feelings for her were not love but just a temporary infatuation.

Zhao Shiyan suddenly reached out and touched Cheng Yu's forehead.

"You don't have a fever, why are you talking nonsense?"

"Love that goes deep into your bones? How scary."

Huh? It seems that he didn't listen to the truths she just said.

"Cheng Yu, you haven't told me why you don't like me? If there's anything I did wrong, I can change it."

"Family background? Or identity? Do you care about these?"

Without waiting for Cheng Yu to say anything, this man was smart enough to question her first?

Of course she doesn't care about that.

As long as he is the man she likes, it doesn't matter even if he is a beggar on the street.

"My Lord, your words really embarrass me. I just want to tell you that I really don't have any feelings for you. You are very good, young and handsome, rich and powerful, of noble status, and deeply favored by the emperor, but to be honest, I like the older girl better than you."

Zhao Shiyan originally thought that Cheng Yu liked another man, so she didn't like him...

But when he heard Cheng Yu say that she liked older girls more than him?

Zhao Shiyan felt completely disappointed.

He couldn't help but let his mind wander.

He felt that Cheng Yu liked her sister.

Zhao Shiyan gritted his teeth and said, "Your kind of liking is wrong."

"You should think twice before doing this. Also, I will never agree to a relationship like that between you two."

After leaving such strange words, Zhao Shiyan left.

Cheng Yu seemed completely confused, but Zhao Shiyan left angrily. Cheng Yu thought that he probably understood her rejection and left in disappointment and sadness.

A man heals quickly from sadness.

She needn't worry.

She then returned home and told Hehua to start preparing to make pastries and fruits.

There are more fruits to be made this time. If Cheng Yu, He Hua and Tao Zi were to do it alone, they would definitely not be able to finish it.

We need to find someone else from outside.

She needed to rent a house and find some female workers.

Cheng Yu suddenly remembered the pastry shop he had opened for Zhao Rulan before. It was still closed now. It would be great if he could rent it for a while.

However, she didn't dare to go to Prince Jing's Mansion to find Zhao Rulan again.

She was lucky. Just when she was worrying about how to rent the pastry shop, her brother came.
