Chapter 800: Chapter 800: More Silver in the Wallet
Shopkeeper Zhou “…”
He exhaled quietly and strived to maintain the steadiness of his voice, “Miss Qiao, look, Jìwèi Restaurant sold many mooncakes in just a blink of an eye, everyone has tasted their novelty, you now…”
Even if Zuixian Building rushed to release mooncakes now, the number of people who would co to buy definitely wouldn’t surpass Jìwèi’s.
So, isn’t it a loss to pay two thousand taels for a tiny recipe of mooncakes?
If it’s a loss, he’s bound to get scolded again!
“But that’s the price I gave to Jìwèi Restaurant.” Qiao Xiaomai looked into his eyes with a pair of innocent peach blossom eyes.
...
She’s is now the wife of a scholar, not the sa village girl who would be butchered by others.
Her attitude was clear: either pay two thousand taels or leave.
She definitely wouldn’t lower the price.
Shopkeeper Zhou, seeing Qiao Xiaomai like this, couldn’t help but glance at Tong Sanlang.
Tong Sanlang showed a slight smile, and he uttered, “I listen to my wife, the business matters are entirely up to her.”
Upon hearing this, Manager Zhou shifted his gaze back to Qiao Xiaomai and said hesitantly, “Miss Qiao, look, why don’t you co up with a new type of dessert…”
“New desserts can’t just be thought of on the spot, this needs ti.” Qiao Xiaomai spread out her hands.
How could she have infinite ideas in her head?
Upon hearing this, Shopkeeper Zhou gritted his teeth, saying, “How about one thousand taels?”
Two thousand taels, in case it doesn’t make a profit, he fears that his position as the shopkeeper of Zuixian Building might not be safe…
“Oh my, Shopkeeper Zhou, the mooncakes taste good, as long as you sell them at Zuixian Building, they’ll surely sell. As long as you make them delicious, repeat custors will be endless.”
The sa can’t be said for items that could be used for a long ti, once eaten and you fancy more, you’ll definitely go and buy, right?
Shopkeeper Zhou was too stingy.
Even if her relationship with Tong Sanlang and Jìwèi restaurant wasn’t a factor, she wasn’t fond of dealing with Shopkeeper Zhou.
He’s not being frank!
He wants the recipe but wishes to push the price as low as possible, how could there be such a good thing in this world.
Seeing Shopkeeper Zhou still looking hesitant, Qiao Xiaomai proposed, “How about this, Shopkeeper Zhou, you go back and think it over, if you want to buy, feel free to find in the manor.”
“Sanlang and I have matters to attend to today, we can’t stay here much longer.”
Shopkeeper Zhou bumped into her and Tong Sanlang on the main street, and the three of them were still standing on the main street till now.
Upon hearing this, Shopkeeper Zhou sighed heavily, his face looked as if the sky had fallen, “Miss Qiao, fine, let it be two thousand taels!”
A catty of mooncake is a hundred and eighty-eight coins, he’ll have to sell a lot to earn back those two thousand taels.
But there’s no more ti to wait anymore.
If he can’t release a new food item to compete with the mooncakes, then he’ll have to grit his teeth and buy the mooncake recipe, the custors of Zuixian Building can’t be lost any further.
“Let’s go to Zuixian Building then.” Upon hearing this, Qiao Xiaomai imdiately bead with joy.
Two thousand taels, another two thousand taels in her pocket.
Now she had the money to buy the land.
Having many food lovers is so great!
And so, what initially was a casual shopping trip turned into a money-making opportunity. They spent the whole day at Zuixian Building, by the ti Qiao Xiaomai and Tong Sanlang left, it was already evening.
Shopkeeper Zhou, with a big smile on his face, escorted them out, reminding them to be careful on their way and asking that if they co up with any new ideas in the future, to never forget about Zuixian Building.
Zuixian Building ideally would beco the most genuine friend of the couple!
