Wow! My wife is beautiful and obedient, everyone envies her!
Chapter 60 Trading
She tried to regain her composure.
Noah's eyes grew colder. "If I hadn't come, I wouldn't have known that my aunt was trying to steal my boyfriend again. Aunt, didn't you say before that you didn't care about the ones I'd played with? How come you're trying to poach one of my guys?"
His words were cold and devoid of any emotion.
Daphne had already calmed down and said, "We're aunt and niece, isn't it normal to have the same hobbies? Besides, all the handsome boys in Noah's Abyss have gone to your side, and you haven't left any for me, what can I do?"
"Auntie can do what I do and ask around if anyone has a handsome boy. If someone is willing to give him to you, you can accept him. If no one gives him to you, you can go out on the street and look for one. Don't always think about your nephew. I only have two, but you already have six."
"Okay, I won't touch your things anymore, okay? I'm leaving now, see you at the family dinner this month." Daphne said, pulling her lover away.
Noah said, "Auntie, won't you eat something here before you leave? It's on you."
Daphne's gaze fell on the tasting stall at the entrance again, revealing disdain. "Noah, you should keep a better eye on your two family members. After all, you paid for this restaurant, so it should be more upscale. There are beggars at the entrance. Just thinking about eating the same food as beggars makes me feel nauseous, no matter how delicious it is."
"I remember your restaurant, Aunt, would throw away any unsold desserts after two days, even though they weren't expired. But not many beggars would bother to pick them up and eat them," Noah mocked. "Your dessert shop is so bad that even beggars wouldn't want it if it were free."
Daphne's expression changed.
In Juecheng, most restaurants will throw away any products that don't sell within two or three days.
If homeless people want to pick up food, then they can pick it up and eat it; if not, they can wait for a truck to take it to the garbage dump outside the city.
Daphne's dessert shop was her own business, funded and owned by her, and had nothing to do with the Davis family.
At first, her dessert shop did quite well.
However, business has been getting worse and worse these past few months. I can't sell all the desserts I make every day, and I've lost quite a few.
Her dessert shop is currently operating at a loss.
Daphne initially thought that it didn't matter if the dessert shop was losing money; she had plenty of money and didn't care about a pittance.
Who knew Noah would use this to mock him?
"Isn't this restaurant just relying on its Dongzhou cuisine to attract customers? I'd like to see how long you can make money!"
After uttering these harsh words, Daphne left in anger.
Noah watched her leave, his eyes turning cold. "What did my aunt talk to you about?"
"I tipped her off," Xiu confessed honestly.
He looked at Noah and said, "Patriarch, your timely appearance reminded me of a hero rescuing a damsel in distress. Do you also have some feelings for me?"
Noah rolled his eyes at him. "Do you think that's possible?"
Noah was passing by by car and wanted to see how the restaurant was doing that day, but he saw his aunt inside and that's when he came in.
He certainly didn't want anyone to cause trouble at the restaurant that Qi Yuan had worked so hard to build.
"Hehe, I was just joking," Xiu laughed. "I know you're here because of A Yuan, and your willingness to help me is also for A Yuan's sake."
“You have to act like you love everyone and don’t favor just one person, so that they won’t focus on Ah Yuan alone. Actually, I’d be quite willing to help you act like that.”
Xiu wasn't stupid; he was very clever about his role in the Davis family.
Noah said, "I'll give you 50,000 a month. It's just an occasional performance, so it won't be unfair to you."
“But if I were to pass on a message to Ms. Daphne, I think I could earn even more, right?” Xiu suddenly said.
Noah's face suddenly turned cold, revealing a murderous intent.
Xiu hurriedly said, "Just kidding, Patriarch. You're too sensitive. Lady Daphne's power and wealth are nowhere near yours. If you want to live comfortably in Juecheng, the smart thing to do is not to offend you."
"It's good to know."
"However, Patriarch, I'd like to do a business deal with you." Xiu's expression turned serious, devoid of his usual joking manner.
Noah, seeing his serious expression, asked, "What kind of business?"
"Let me take control of all the businesses of the Robinson family, and I will become the head of the Robinson family. In exchange, I can share the profits from trading in the Eastern Continent with you."
Noah narrowed his eyes. "Reselling? Transporting goods from the Eastern Continent takes a long time and requires a lot of manpower, and the profit is so small. Do you think I'd be willing to do this business?"
“I used to think that trading goods in the Northeast was worthless, since it takes a month just to get there. But the Robinson family has been doing this business all along, which means they can make money, right? Besides, we’ve been doing this for so many years, why do you think our route to the Eastern Continent will still take a month?”
"Do you have a shortcut?" Noah asked.
Xiu: "Of course there is. It only takes 15 days to go and 15 days to come back. Originally, it took two months to travel back and forth, but now it only takes one month."
Noah lowered his head in deep thought.
Although Robinson compressed the routes to the East and North continents into a month, a month is still quite a long time.
"You don't need to worry about the goods brought from Dongzhou not selling. Yesterday, someone came to my shop to ask if we had any casserole dishes like the one that Ayuan set up. Also, the sales of rice have increased."
“In the past, we didn’t know how to use the goods from Dongzhou that we brought in, and even if we did, we couldn’t cook them into delicious food. But Ah Yuan seems to know how to use everything. As long as someone teaches us and we promote it gradually, we’ll definitely be able to sell the goods we bring in. Besides, Ah Yuan is from Dongzhou and has his own cargo fleet that he manages. You can quickly find whatever he wants for him, right?”
Given Davis's current financial resources, losing one business wouldn't result in a significant loss; transporting and reselling goods between the two continents isn't a particularly lucrative business.
But Xiu's last words touched Noah's heart.
"Making you the head of the Robinson family isn't difficult at all. I can just say the word," Noah said. The Robinson family is no different from an ant; if they don't obey, they'll be crushed. They wouldn't dare to disobey.
“I don’t want to be the head of the Robinson family now. I want to be the head of the family when the Robinson family is at its most glorious. Only when I sit in this position then can I see my father’s ferocious face when he is angry.”
Noah immediately understood what he wanted to do and said, "So, I have to send your family a large sum of money first, and then help you seize the position of family head?"
"You could say that, since it's not very meaningful to get it so easily these days. But, patriarch, you don't need to worry, I will return that money to you."
Noah didn't answer immediately. He gave Xiu a meaningful look and said, "Okay, that's settled then."
"You agreed so readily? Then, Patriarch, is there anything else I can ask of you?"
"Xiu, don't push your luck."
Xiu smiled slightly. "Help me find someone. His name is Shi Bai. He's from Dongzhou and is my lover. He's very handsome. Once you find him, he can also enter the Davis family and pretend to be your male concubine."
