A red apricot is about to cheat on you

"As for me, I need a large number of sponges. All of your people are experts in diving, so I think it should be easy to get what I want!"

Boss Wang thought he had misheard. He didn't want frozen seafood, but rather those useless sponges. His expression was a little solemn and puzzled, and he couldn't help but wonder if she was making fun of him.

Yi Duoer saw his doubts and told him that when her business expanded, she might even build a branch here because it was close to the sea and had a very dense population.

It is also very convenient!

Boss Wang stroked the few hairs on his chin and agreed thoughtfully. "Is that so? Okay then."

If Yi Duoer really wants to expand her business here in the future, I can provide her with goods."

Yi Duoer smiled brightly, and walked forward to shake his hand with a little excitement, expressing her pleasure in cooperating in a modern way!

This action startled Boss Wang and Qiu Chan. Boss Wang stood up immediately and exclaimed, "Boss Yi, what are you doing? I'm old enough to be your father. How can you be so aggressive?"

Qiu Chan hurried forward to help Yi Duoer sit back down. How could Yi Duoer not differentiate between men and women? If her master knew about this, she would not dare to think about it anymore.

Yi Duoer frowned at their excited reaction. In her excitement, she had forgotten that this wasn't modern times. Boss Wang coughed awkwardly.

He sat back down, "Uh... Boss Yi, how long do you need the goods? I can provide you with a thousand pounds of sponge in as little as seven days! The market price here is three cents per pound. Since you want so much, I'll charge you two cents from now on. How about that?"

Yi Duoer's eyes rolled quickly twice, she calculated in her mind, pondered for a few seconds, and made a rough summary of how many sponges were needed to make a sanitary napkin!

One thousand kilograms can make about 50,000 to 60,000 slices. Sure, I can sell them to wealthy people at a high price. Even if I don't sell them at a high price, I can still make a lot of money.

Then she raised her fair hand and slapped it on the table, finalizing the decision! "Okay, sure! But if you squeeze out a thousand pounds of water!"

Boss Wang laughed heartily, looked at Yi Duo'er's shrewd face, and said jokingly, "I didn't expect you to be so knowledgeable. Well, I'm talking about a sponge that has been squeezed dry. Otherwise, we can't ship it to the capital unless we squeeze out all the water. As long as you cooperate with me for a long time, I will never raise the price by more than two cents in the future!"

After hearing what he said, Yi Duoer felt relieved.

Then, Yi Duoer followed Boss Wang to his dock. The sea breeze blew gently, making her black hair messy and beautiful!

The moment she reached the shore, she felt much more relaxed. Feeling the tide rushing towards her, she turned happily to look at Boss Wang.

"Boss Wang, you are indeed very wealthy, owning such a large wharf. I'm afraid your business is not limited to Qichao," Yi Duoer joked.

Boss Wang handed the sponge sample to Yi Duoer, smiling as he responded. "Just enough to make a living. I'm elsewhere. I also have some docks, and I also supply Dongli and other small countries."

At this point, Yi Duoer's face lit up with surprise. She hadn't expected ancient preservation techniques to be so advanced. Their transportation capabilities were also impressive. She couldn't help but sigh in admiration.

In modern times, everything is preserved with the help of technology, so when she has the chance, she will also learn their preservation techniques.

The sponge in her hand felt very soft and absorbed water very well.

So they wrote a document and then gave the silver note. Boss Wang was in a very good mood and told Yi Duoer not to worry, that the goods would be delivered safely to the capital within ten days.

With his assurance, she felt much more at ease. She then strolled around the pier, bought a lot of seafood, and returned to the inn.

The next day, the Ninth Princess was still a little dissatisfied with Yi Duoer's behavior, so Yi Duoer invited them to go shopping early in the morning.

"Yi Duo'er, you are the third princess after all. My third brother might become the emperor in the future. Why are you so timid? You have to make money by yourself. Why do you live so hard? And you have to be humble to the common people? As a princess, shouldn't you be as skilled as Xue'er?" The ninth princess could no longer hold back the doubts in her heart and asked her question.

Yi Duo'er simply shrugged, her expression expressionless. Instead, she asked, "Then what do you think it's like to be a princess, a queen, a woman?"

"Of course, it is to take care of the harem for my husband, manage all the affairs in the mansion, and be a good mistress so that my husband has no worries!" The Ninth Princess answered as a matter of course.

But her thinking is different. She doesn't rely on men, and she doesn't want to be trapped under four walls. Everyone has different ideas.

She played with the delicate pearl hairpin in her hand, her expression calm, and said in a very calm tone:

"Women shouldn't be trapped by worldly expectations. Just do whatever you want! Even if you hit a wall, so what? Why live under a wall? But you're right, everyone has their own ideas and their own way of living! Anyway, I'm happy living this way."
