Chapter 162

Shen Lingjun slowly closed the ledger and looked up at Liu Manman.

"Who said we stole your recipe?"

Liu Manman: "Otherwise, how could you make soap! Those new bath beans sold in the Shen family's shop are clearly soap, do you think I can't recognize them!"

Shen Lingjun said slowly, "First of all, we didn't steal your formula. Soap is just oil and lye water heated and stirred. If you can make it, why can't everyone else in the world? Secondly, the soap you made is too alkaline and will damage your skin. You didn't verify its safety before you started selling it, and it's already been taken off the shelves. Why can't others sell better products?"

Liu Manman's face turned red and then pale as she was being talked about.

She was indeed too hasty and careless. The soap had just been made, and after only one test and it seemed to work, she rushed to start selling it on a large scale. As a result, her reputation completely collapsed, and she lost the market's trust. Even if she wanted to improve it and put it back on the shelves, customers would no longer believe her.

Now that Shen Lingjun has completely snatched this business, it's too late for her to regret it.

There were no patents or intellectual property rights in ancient times, so she had no grounds to sue anyone. Moreover, Shen Lingjun's creations were different from hers; they were higher quality and more refined products.

Liu Manman was furious!

She started this whole thing and ended up losing everything, but Shen Lingjun snatched all the benefits afterward!

Shen Lingjun raised an eyebrow and said, "Oh, right, there's something else I need to discuss with Madam Liu. Didn't you rent a workshop to make soap before? Now our new bath bean is in short supply and we need to mass-produce it. Your workshop is readily available, and it's just losing money sitting there. How about you transfer it to me?"

"..."

As if stabbed in the heart, Liu Manman completely broke down!

She screamed hysterically, "You're dreaming! Losing money is my problem, I won't give you any amount! You bitch, you did it on purpose! You just wait, let's see how long you can be so smug!"

With that, he turned around and ran off.

Shen Lingjun shrugged.

Transferring the workshop to her would at least salvage a small portion of the losses. Why is Liu Manman so stubborn?

The fact that they can still sulk means they haven't reached the worst point yet.

But she didn't care anyway; at worst, she could just find another place to rent as a workshop.

Shen Lingjun opened the ledger, about to continue reading, when Wang Jin came in from outside.

"Madam, the Chief Supervisor asked me to pass on a message to you: General Shen and Young General Shen have arrived at a place less than a hundred miles from the capital and are expected to arrive in the capital tomorrow."

Shen Lingjun suddenly stood up.

For over a month, she had been eagerly awaiting the return of her father and brothers!

Shen Lingjun immediately forgot about business, put down his account book, and rushed to the Shen residence to tell Madam Wen the news.

The next day, Shen Lingjun and Madam Wen left the capital early in the morning and waited by the official road outside the city.

It wasn't until it was almost dark that we saw two dusty carriages traveling from the west.
