I became a vicious stepmother and I went to the sea to feed my three children.

After a long while, Xu Ming looked up at Bai Qingyao.

I have to say, Bai Qingyao is really smart.

But she does have the capital to do so.

And cooperation can indeed achieve a win-win situation.

Although oyster sauce is just a small condiment, adding it to many dishes will make the flavor more abundant.

The most important thing is that Wangyueju is not only in Taohua Town, its largest source of customers is also in the capital.

The people in Beijing are all wealthy and will not be stingy when it comes to the food they like.

If they had oyster sauce, their business would definitely be taken to the next level, but...

"Miss Bai, if we accept your authorization, then other restaurants will also be able to purchase oyster sauce after receiving the authorization."

As expected of the owner of Wangyueju, Xu Ming hit the nail on the head.

Originally, if only one restaurant used oyster sauce, it would become more popular. However, if more restaurants used oyster sauce, Wangyueju would lose its advantage.

Bai Qingyao naturally thought of what Xu Ming thought of.

"Since it's a cooperation, I will naturally not let Manager Xu down."

Bai Qingyao slowly spoke, "If Wangyueju becomes a partner of the oyster sauce workshop, firstly, they can get dividends, and secondly, Wangyueju can get priority in obtaining supplies. If other condiments appear in the workshop in the future, Wangyueju will naturally have priority."

"But this way, we can also buy oyster sauce directly from you."

These couldn't completely convince him.

"Of course. As a partner of the workshop, I won't let Shopkeeper Xu suffer any loss. I think Shopkeeper Xu should also know that oyster sauce is not delicious with every dish. If we cooperate, I can not only tell you the applicable range of Wangyueju oyster sauce, but also give you two recipes for free."

"Another point is that the process of making oyster sauce is complicated and it won't be made in a short time."

The cooking temperature, dosage, etc. must be taken into consideration, and the process can be very cumbersome.

"Also, I know the ingredients are not just oyster sauce, but also shrimp powder, crab roe sauce, etc."

Bai Qingyao must demonstrate her own value, so that Manager Xu can be less worried about the cooperation.

She is now helpless. If she builds a workshop, there will definitely be a lot of trouble later. In this case, she needs a reliable and stable backer.

She had inquired and found out that the people behind Wangyueju were from Beijing. They were able to stand out among the two major families and still occupy the top position. It was obvious that there was more behind Wangyueju than meets the eye.

After hearing Bai Qingyao's words, Xu Ming fell into silence. After a while, he looked up at Bai Qingyao.

"Miss Bai Ji, if that's the case, I need to inform our boss about this."

No matter what, he is just the shopkeeper of Wangyueju, and the real person who has the final say is the boss.

"nature."

Bai Qingyao also understood that no matter who suddenly proposed cooperation, she would not agree immediately. She still had to consider the risks.

After saying this, Xu Ming looked at the wooden barrel not far away.

"Miss Bai, what are you doing..."

"I'm going to set up a stall in town and sell some noodles. After all, I need a way to make a living to support my family!"

She could prepare the noodles in advance and then bring them to town and cook them directly in the pot, but a mobile boiler is not easy to make.

Especially now when conditions are so bad.

Bai Qingyao had to try a different method. She found some things in the morning and made a simple stove.

However, she can't set up the stall today because she hasn't finished cooking the stove yet.

Xu Ming was stunned. To be honest, he had been here for so long but didn't seem to see the father of his three children.

He guessed a little bit. It seemed that Bai Qingyao was raising three children alone. It was indeed a bit pitiful...

"Shopkeeper Xu, what do you think of these noodles? Is it feasible to sell them in town?"

Hearing the voice, Xu Ming quickly came back to his senses and looked up at Bai Qingyao.

"Miss Bai's cooking skills are superb. This noodle soup may seem simple, but it is rich and fragrant, with a long aftertaste and a sweet aftertaste. It is truly top-notch."

Although it is just a simple noodle dish, it is very sophisticated inside, and Xu Ming has a very high opinion of it.

Chef Zhang from Wangyueju can’t make noodles like this.

Thinking of the mellow taste, Xu Ming swallowed subconsciously. He hesitated for a moment and didn't say the words on his lips.

"By the way, Miss Bai, do you have any oyster sauce at home?"

They had already used up all the ones from yesterday. If there was no oyster sauce today, many customers would probably be upset.

"To be honest, Miss Bai, your oyster sauce has really attracted quite a few customers. We came here today not only to discuss the oyster sauce recipe, but also to buy some more."

"I don't have much here. I only made two small jars at the beginning, and I gave one to you."

"What about the remaining jar?"

Xu Ming spoke anxiously. He really needed the oyster sauce now.

"Of the remaining jar, some of it was given away, so now there's probably only about half a jar left."

Bai Qingyao remembered that there should be a little more than half of the jar left.

"Miss Bai, can you sell me this half jar?"

"If Shopkeeper Xu wants it, then I'll give it to you."

"How can that happen!"

As he spoke, Xu Ming took out a silver ingot from his pocket and placed it on the table.

He knew the situation of the Gu family, so naturally he would not take advantage of Bai Qingyao.

As for the cooperation, the boss will most likely agree. After all, cooperation will bring only benefits to Wangyueju.

"You must keep this money, otherwise, I would be embarrassed to take it."

"Since Shopkeeper Xu said so, I can't refuse anymore. I'll accept it."

"That's right!"

……

Xu Ming stayed at Gu's house for about half an hour, and finally left with half a jar of oyster sauce.

When he left, Bai Qingyao also gave him some old soup, which she had cooked for a long time. He could just go back and make some noodles and eat it directly.

Carrying those things, Xu Ming left Gu's house with a smile.

Bai Qingyao looked at the carriage going away and was about to turn around, but suddenly turned her head away. As far as her eyes could see, there was nothing.

She couldn't help but frown. Nothing?

She felt like someone was staring at her just now. She looked strange and walked into the yard and closed the gate.

On the hillside not far from the Gu family, a figure walked out from the shadows and looked at the tightly closed door of the Gu family. His eyes flickered, and after a few breaths, he turned and left.

After he left, the door of the Gu family was opened again. Bai Qingyao looked at the place where the man had just left and frowned slightly.

Her feeling was not wrong, there was indeed someone in the dark watching her.

Who was watching her? Or rather...watching the Gu family?
