I trade in both worlds

This price was exactly Mr. Liu's bottom price. Liu Fu was silent for a moment, as if he was weighing the pros and cons. He knew that this lip balm recipe was worth this price, but if he agreed to it easily, the two sisters might think they were too easy to talk to.

"Twenty thousand is still expensive." Chief Steward Liu looked at Xu Ziqing with a worried look on his face: "What about the lip balm?"

"The price of lip balm really can't be any lower. If it's any lower, I'll be selling it at a loss." Xu Ziqing

Chief Steward Liu thought for a moment and said, "This price is beyond the authority given to me by the boss. Let me discuss it with the boss first. Whether it is successful or not, I will get back to you as soon as possible."

Xu Xu and Xu Ziqing were anxious inside, but they tried hard not to show it.

"Okay. However, we also hope that you can explain the value of this lip balm recipe to the boss. Our recipe is indeed worth the price." Xu Ziqing added.

Liu Fu nodded: "Don't worry, I will give you an answer as soon as possible. If the boss thinks this price is reasonable, we will buy this recipe."

After saying that, Liu Fu turned around and left, his steps brisk and confident. He knew that this lip balm recipe was definitely a good opportunity to make money, but the price still needed to be considered.

Xu Xu and Xu Ziqing watched the back of Liu Dazongguan leaving, feeling both hopeful and anxious. They knew that the next few days would be a critical moment to determine their fate.

After leaving Jinxiu Pavilion, Xu Ziqing and Xu Xu waited anxiously for five days. During these days, they had no energy to do anything as they were always worried about the result of the lip balm recipe.

Although they believed that Chief Steward Liu would not miss the recipe, they were still worried until the last moment.

Five days later, the wait finally came. Sister Feng sent someone to tell them to go to Jinxiu Pavilion the next morning.

The next morning, the two met Liu Fu with both nervousness and excitement.

This time, Liu Fu had a clear smile on his face. "Miss Xu, I have discussed with the boss, and he has decided to buy your lip balm recipe and lip balm. The price is based on what you said."

Xu Xu and Xu Ziqing looked at each other and secretly rejoiced in their hearts. They knew that this was already a big step towards success.

Xu Ziqing said with a smile on his face: "Thank you for your care, Chief Steward Liu."

"However." Liu Fu looked at them seriously, "Since you have sold the recipe to us, you can no longer make lip balm, even for your own use."

Xu Ziqing raised her eyebrows in surprise. She thought she was not within the scope of the restriction, but it didn’t matter. She would do it in modern times and this restriction would not affect her.

She looked at Xu Xu and saw Xu Xu nodded at her, so she agreed, "Sure, Chief Manager Liu hopes that we will have more opportunities for cooperation in the future."

Liu Fu bowed his hands and said, "Don't worry, as long as we cooperate happily, there will be many opportunities in the future."

In this way, Xu Xu and Xu Ziqing successfully sold their lip balm recipe to Fengjie's employer. Soon after, this new lipstick became popular in the capital and became a beauty product that women scrambled to pursue.

But this is all for later.

Liu Fu took out the contract he had prepared in advance and handed it to Xu Ziqing and Xu Xu, giving each of them a copy: "This is the contract for selling the son and lipstick. Take a look at it. If there is no problem, we will sign it. It is still early and we can go to the government office to seal it."

Xu Ziqing and Xu Xu took the contract and read it carefully. The terms and regulations of the contract were very complete and strict, and generally more favorable to Party A.

But as long as Xu Ziqing and the others don't leak the recipe, these terms will have no impact on them.

Xu Ziqing nodded to Xu Xu and looked at Liu Fu: "Butler Liu, there is no problem with this contract, you can sign it."

After the three of them signed the contract, Liu Fu sent a servant to take the contract to the government office to have it stamped.

Liu Fu took out a silver note of thirty-two thousand taels and gave it to Xu Ziqing, while Xu Xu handed the recipe for lip balm to Liu Fu.

Liu Fu took the prescription and read it carefully. He found that the prescription was not only text, but also had schematic drawings.

Xu Ziqing drew out each step and marked the order.

Liu Fu raised his eyebrows. This way of explanation was really unique, simple and clear, with detailed explanation.

Just these few prescriptions made Liu Fu think highly of Xu Ziqing.

After Xu Ziqing put away the banknotes, he looked at Liu Fu hesitantly, then turned to look at Xu Xu.

Seeing her expression of wanting to say something but not knowing how to say it, Xu Xu muttered in his heart that he didn't know what she wanted to do and she hadn't mentioned it to her in advance.

Now I can only bite the bullet and cooperate with her. After looking at each other, I immediately lowered my eyelids.

Xu Ziqing also had a sudden idea. She remembered that the method of making pure dew was also to boil flower petals, so it would be better to sell them together to save Fengjie from having to go to the capital again later.

Seeing this, Liu Fu said, "Miss, if you have anything to say, just tell me."

"Then I'll be frank." Xu Ziqing pretended to be determined, sat up straight, looked at Liu Fu and said, "General Manager Liu, I have two more prescriptions here, do you want them?"

"Oh? What's the recipe?" Liu Fu looked at her in surprise. He had no idea where she got the recipes, one after another.

Xu Xu also looked at her in surprise and continued to lower his head to reduce his presence.

"We got this recipe by accident when we were making lip balm." Xu Ziqing smiled at Liu Fu.

Liu Fu pondered for a while. Since he could get the recipe when making lip balm, was it necessary to buy it? "Oh? I wonder what the recipe is?"

"Hydrogen dew and essential oils." Xu Ziqing replied: "Although it is derived from the method of making lip balm, we have come up with it after many experiments and changing the tools."

When Liu Fu heard this, a hint of curiosity flashed in his eyes: "Oh? Hydrosols and essential oils? This is new. Can you tell me in detail about their uses?"

Xu Ziqing nodded: "Hydrosol and essential oil are both made from fresh flower petals. They can improve the skin on our faces and brighten our complexion. They are a great product for women to maintain their beauty. Essential oils can relieve tension, improve sleep, and improve skin condition. They are extremely beneficial to the body and mind."

"How do you use this hydrosol and essential oil?" Liu Fu asked

"Hydrosol is used for facial application. You can take a piece of cotton gauze, soak it in hydrosol and apply it on your face. Remove it after half a cup of tea. If you use it frequently, your facial skin will get better and better."

Liu Fu nodded: "What about essential oils?"

"Essential oils have many uses. They can be used on the face or on the body. The usage is the same."

"Oh? Can you tell me how to use it in detail?"

"Of course you can. If you want to use it on your face, you can take two or three drops on the palm of your hand, rub your hands together to warm them up, and then apply it from the center of the face outwards, from the chin, cheeks, forehead to the neck." Xu Ziqing said as he demonstrated with his hands.
