A tragic journey through ancient times, trying to make money

Zhang Yunyue: "Mung bean jelly must be eaten on the same day. Chili oil can be stored for up to one or two months if stored properly, but you must use a dry spoon every time you take it out, and the area around the oil tank must be clean and free of moisture. The storage place must also be cool and dry."

"Manager Cao, before we talk about cooperation, I have a question about Tianxianglou?"

Shopkeeper Cao: "Excuse me, young lady."

Zhang Yunyue: "I want to confirm again whether Tianxianglou has the same owner for all the hundreds of restaurants in Yuanqi country."

Shopkeeper Cao nodded. "Yes, in the whole Yuanqi country, all the restaurants called Tianxianglou are from the same family."

"Then I have a way to cooperate with you regarding mung bean jelly. I wonder if Shopkeeper Cao is interested?"

When Shopkeeper Cao saw Zhang Yunyue, he found that this teenage girl was extraordinary. He had never seen a girl of this age so calm and composed when negotiating with others.

"Miss Zhang, please tell me about the cooperation method you mentioned."

"That is, I can give you the recipe of mung bean jelly, and you can sell mung bean jelly in all restaurants in Yuanqi Country, but I need 30% of the profit from all your mung bean jelly."

"I know you can't make the decision here. You can write to your boss and make the decision with him."

Shopkeeper Cao: "Miss Zhang, is 30% too much? What you provided is the formula."

Zhang Yunyue shook her head: "My 30% profit is already the share of income after deducting the cost. If I don't provide this, you won't have the other 70%, right?"

Shopkeeper Cao: "In that case, I will write a letter to our boss after I return."

"What about the chili oil? Miss Zhang, what do you think? I want to buy some chili oil and send it to the boss. If the boss thinks it's okay, it may be provided to all Tianxianglou."

Zhang Yunyue: "I'm sorry, the cooperation method for chili oil will not be the same as that for mung bean jelly. I will only sell the finished chili oil. Because chili oil will have different flavors in the future, the formula can only be controlled by me."

Shopkeeper Cao: "In that case, Miss Zhang, can you help me prepare 20 kilograms of chili oil tomorrow? By then, even if the boss doesn't cooperate with you, Tianxianglou in the county will cooperate with you. Then I can just come and buy mung bean jelly."

"In addition to using the 20 kilograms of chili oil at Tianxianglou in the county, I will send some to the boss. I believe the boss will agree after tasting it."

Zhang Yunyue: "Okay, Shopkeeper Cao, when I come to deliver the mung bean jelly from Tianxianglou tomorrow, I will also bring 20 kilograms of chili oil. By the way, let me tell you, chili oil is 60 wen per kilogram."

Shopkeeper Cao nodded and said, "Miss Zhang, price is not a problem. I only care about quality and taste. By the way, can you provide 4 basins of mung bean jelly every day starting tomorrow? You don't have to worry about the delivery. You just need to send it to Tianxianglou here. Shopkeeper Dong will ask the carriage to deliver it to me. Can you provide it?"

Zhang Yunyue thought about it for a moment. Although the amount of mung bean jelly at the stall might decrease tomorrow, it would also add a new customer.

"Okay, I'll send them all over tomorrow."

Manager Cao: "Okay, I'm going back to the county tomorrow. I'll write to you when you deliver it. "

Zhang Yunyue and Manager Cao signed a contract for the county's need for mung bean jelly. They will wait for the owner of Tianxianglou to reply to see whether they will cooperate and then change the contract.

After signing the contract, Zhang Yunyue saw that things were almost settled, so he said goodbye to Shopkeepers Cao and Dong.

When Manager Dong saw that Zhang Yunyue had eaten several dim sum in a row, he asked the waiter to pack some dim sum for Zhang Yunyue and Zhang Cheng to take home.

Zhang Yunyue and Zhang Cheng refused again and again, but they had no choice but to take the snacks and push the wheelbarrow towards the city wall with Zhang Cheng.

Zhu and Zhang Xinghao were already waiting at the entrance of the city wall.

"Aunt, Brother, Uncle and I are back. You must have been waiting for a long time!"

Zhu: "It's okay. How was your conversation? Let's go and talk while we walk."

Zhang Yunyue: "We haven't finalized it yet. We still have to wait for their boss's reply, but Tianxianglou in the county has ordered 20 kilograms of chili oil and 3 pots of mung bean jelly tomorrow."

Zhang Cheng: "You didn't see Yueyue talking so loudly in Tianxianglou just now. Although I often sell things in the town, I was so nervous that I didn't know what to say in that scene just now. But Yueyue was able to negotiate with the shopkeeper in the county alone."

"I can only keep silent and pretend to be calm. I can't hold our Yueyue back, right? Hahaha."

Zhang Yunyue pulled Zhu's arm coquettishly: "Second Uncle, I thought you were calm and composed just now."

Zhang Cheng: "Your second uncle has never seen such an occasion before, so he can only keep silent. Let's go, we are all going home late today."

After hearing what Zhang Cheng said, everyone quickened their pace. They had spent a little too long in Tianxiang Tower today.

Got home and had dinner.

Zhang Yunyue told her family about the cooperation with Manager Cao of Tianxianglou in the county. Although her family was already very happy because of the good business of mung bean jelly during this period, Zhang Yunyue told everyone the good news that the family had another fixed order to make everyone happier.

After everyone had a good rest after their nap, Zhang Yunyue took her mother to boil all the vegetable oil they bought today into chili oil.

Early the next morning.

After Zhang Yunyue and Zhang's father arrived at the stall in town, they unloaded the goods and then pushed the mung bean jelly and chili oil that had been ordered for Tianxianglou to Tianxianglou.

The two of them gave Manager Cao the mung bean jelly and chili oil that they had agreed to order from Tianxianglou, settled the bill, and Manager Cao prepared to leave.

Manager Cao clasped his fists and said, "Since all the items have been delivered, I will return to the county first. Please wait for my news. I will reply within 7 days at the latest. See you then."

Zhang Yunyue: "Okay, see you then, Manager Cao."

Father Zhang and Shopkeeper Cao clasped their fists and said, "See you later, Shopkeeper Cao."

Five days later.

These days, because the business between the Zhang family and Tianxianglou has been fixed, there is no need for Zhang Yunyue to deliver the goods. Zhang's father or Zhang Cheng will deliver the goods directly and then settle the money.

So Shopkeeper Dong had no choice but to come to the stall to find Zhang Yunyue.

"Miss Zhang, I'm here to deliver a letter." Shopkeeper Dong said with a fist salute.

Zhang Yunyue, who was busy at the stall, looked up at Manager Dong in confusion.

Shopkeeper Dong said, "Miss Zhang, five days ago, Shopkeeper Cao of Tianxianglou in the county sent a letter about mung bean jelly and chili oil to the boss. Today, Shopkeeper Cao sent someone to deliver a letter saying that the boss and he will come to the town tomorrow. At that time, we should wait for you in Tianxianglou."

"As soon as I received the news from Manager Cao, I came to inform you immediately. Remember to come on time at noon tomorrow."
