Chapter 174: Second Suggestion
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Gu Yundong’s hair stood on end from his gaze. She had the illusion that she was shining.
She cald herself down and said, “Master?”
Qin Wenzheng sat down again and stuffed the spoon in his hand into his mouth. He ate the spoonful of sugar and closed his eyes. As if he was savoring the aftertaste, he carefully pursed his lips.
Gu Yundong:”…” Can you not make it sound like you’re doing drugs?
When Qin Wenzheng opened his eyes again, he was much calr, but his eyes were still burning with ecstasy.
He took a deep breath. “Lady Gu, did you really make this?”
“Yes.”
“Good, good. You’ve made a huge contribution to our country.”
Contribution to the country?? No, no, no.
Gu Yundong smiled. “Master, don’t flatter . I’m just an ordinary farm girl. I’m selling this sugar for money. I can’t bear such a heavy burden.”
Mister Qin’s mouth twitched. Why wasn’t she excited at all?
“But Miss Gu, you know that if you offer the formula to the imperial court, what you get will be far more important than silver.”
Gu Yundong nodded. “Perhaps you’re right. I can get fa, praise, a reward, and even be recorded in history books.” Oh, it would probably be written that she was from the Gu family of Fengkai County and her na would not even be ntioned.
Qin Wenzheng nodded. Wasn’t that very clear? “Isn’t that good?” At least Qin Wenzheng wanted such a reputation.
Gu Yundong said, “Of course it’s good, but what about after the flowers and applause? I’m still Gu Yundong from Yong Fu Village. My formula is given to the imperial court, so I can’t use it. I even have to buy it if I need it.”
In the future, she would also be in the jam and candy business. These needed a large amount of white sugar, but the price of white sugar in the grocery store was simply ruthless.
So what if the Emperor got to know her because of this? He would forget about her in less than a month. Without her source of inco, her life was probably worse than before.
Just like the current Olympic champions. They were so exciting and loved when they brought glory to their country. However, after they retired, how many of these athletes beca poor?
After the applause, only she could plan for herself.
Gu Yundong admitted that she was a selfish person and not that noble.
Qin Wenzheng frowned. That was not wrong.
However, he said, “Then why did you co to see today…”
“After the sugar is released, I’m afraid many people will covet it. Therefore, I want to find a reliable and capable person to cooperate with. Master Qin is not an ordinary teacher. Let’s cooperate and split the profits. How about that?”
Qin Wenzheng was stunned. This girl actually had such an idea.
But…
He shook his head slightly and frowned. “Although I’m not a rich person, I’m not short of money. Besides, this white sugar is a hot potato to .”
He wanted this share, but if the emperor found out, he would definitely not let him off.
This was white sugar. It was unique. It was not like he was cooperating with others to open a restaurant or shop. It was easy to get a share of the profits from those, but it was not easy to get them from white sugar.
Gu Yundong was not surprised by his rejection. She smiled and said, “Master Qin, why don’t you listen to my second suggestion?”
‘Eh, there’s more?’
Qin Wenzheng could not help but sit up straight. “Speak..”
