Quick Wear: I've never been a good person

Chapter 411: Dressed as a Widow Without a Man (26)

"Madam Qi, isn't this a bit expensive?"

Shuangshuang didn't argue with him. After all, she was not the kind of old fox who did business.

He said straight to the point, "Anyway, I'll give you the goods for a copper coin. You can sell them yourself. How much you can sell them for is up to you. I won't ask."

"Really?"

"Of course it's real. But I have one condition: you must not tell anyone where this thing came from. If anyone asks, just say you made it yourself."

Shuangshuang said this just in case. She doesn't have the ability to protect her family yet, so it's better to keep a low profile.

Duan Ruichen was naturally happy that Shuangshuang was not told to anyone. Who wouldn't want to control the source of this?

So he said directly, "Then you are not allowed to give these goods to anyone else in the future."

"Don't worry, as long as you don't do anything wrong or treacherous, I will never be so stupid as to cut off my own path."

"So how much do you produce in a day?"

"Not much, I'll give you 200 yuan a month"

"so little?"

“Haven’t you heard that scarcity makes things valuable?

Besides, you think my raw materials are easy to find, and you think I can make a lot of money with just one copper coin!"

Finally, the two men signed a contract and exchanged the 50 bars of soap they brought for ten taels of silver and forty strings of copper coins.

Originally, Shuang wanted to trade everything with silver, but this time, it was Duan Ruichen who rolled his eyes at her.

"You wish! Most of the gold and silver are in the hands of the rich and powerful, and few people would use them.

Even if they collected some, they mostly kept it for themselves.”

"Then didn't you just take out the 300 gold last time?"

Both of them pouted and muttered.

This made Duan Ruichen laugh in anger, "You're the one who asked for it, right? You know, that's all the gold I have!"

After leaving Hongyunlou, Shuangshuang went directly to the butcher stalls to order their offal and pork fat.

She was worried that since it only required lard, her recipe would be easily discovered by others.

If the internal organs are included, others will have to go through a lot of detours if they want to imitate it.

As for the internal organs, she didn't plan to waste them, so she went directly to the pharmacy and bought a big bag of marinade ingredients, and then stewed them in a pot.

Or you can make sausage with all the intestines.

As a result, Hongyunlou has two more signature dishes, one is Chinese sausage and the other is braised offal.

In the past few months, Shuangshuang's soap price has increased from two hundred yuan per month to one thousand yuan.

If Duan Ruichen continued to sell it, there would be an increasing trend, but Shuangshuang was unwilling to do so.

She didn't want to make herself and Bonnie so tired. Finally, Duan Ruichen saw that he couldn't make money, and he was scratching his head and was really anxious.

That day, he specially brought Manager Qian to Shuangshuang's house and proposed that they go into partnership to do the soap business.

Shuangshuang thought about it and felt that this was a feasible approach.

I didn't bring it up before because I was worried that the other party would have bad character and I would lose both the formula and my money.

But I have also seen how Duan Ruichen behaves in the past few months, and I think he should not do such a treacherous thing.

Moreover, Shuangshuang really didn't want Baoni to be so tired every day, so she thought that it would be worthwhile to test Duan Ruichen's character with just a soap recipe.

Anyway, this is not the only recipe she has memorized.

In the end, Shuangshuang used his technology to invest and divided the company into three layers, and donated the recipes for bacon and braised meat to Hongyunlou.

However, Shuangshuang added an additional condition: she would use the bacon and braised meat to make a living in the capital.

Therefore, she doesn't care about other places, but the capital must be her territory.

Duan Ruichen was also very easy to talk to. After all, it was a free recipe, and the conditions were not conditions at all, right?

As a result, in the first month, he gave her nearly three thousand copper coins.

Shuangshuang was stunned for a moment. Fortunately, Duan Ruichen was considerate and knew that Shuangshuang's mule cart would not be able to hold so much money, so he personally sent several horse-drawn carriages to deliver it.

He also gave her a small box and said, "Here is one thousand taels of silver, all in the form of ten-tael silver ingots. The rest can only be paid in copper coins."

Shuangshuang: 2000 strings of cash, more than 1 kilograms. Only she has the space. Otherwise, if she really wants to escape from the famine, who would run away with so many copper coins?

Just as Shuangshuang was concentrating on making money and forgetting the passage of time, a few months passed quickly and it was soon time for Xu Zhexing to take the provincial examination.

This time, Shuangshuang took Bonnie and drove a mule cart leisurely to the provincial capital.

The teacher of Dunzi Academy originally did not intend for Dunzi to participate.

In their view, how many scholars they can teach in their lifetime is their talent.

Their reputation is determined by how many candidates they can pass the imperial examination at one time.

Don’t think that scholars are aloof and don’t care about reputation. In fact, scholars are more careful about their reputation than ordinary people.

But Shuangshuang also supported Dunzi's decision. Isn't it just spending some copper coins? Just think of it as practice!

Now she has too much copper coins and can't even move them. She still needs to spend some of them.

The teacher was helpless with Xu Dunzi. After all, his family supported him, and there was no need for the teacher to go against him.

But unexpectedly, Xu Zhexing actually passed the exam, and his ranking was not low, which surprised the teacher very much.

Next, the family could leave for the capital to take the Imperial College entrance examination.

This time, Shuangshuang decided to move the whole family, and Xu Yougen and his family would naturally be taken with them.

Next, Shuangshuang took Dunzi, Baoni, Cailai and Caiyun back to the valley.

She wanted to go and discuss with the Qi family in person and ask them to go to Bian Jing with her.

Then he took a few people and passed by the sweet potatoes that had been buried in the mountains.

Seeing wild boars gnawing on sweet potato vines, they both breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, animals are more likely to distinguish these unknown foods than humans.

Shuangshuang pretended to remind them casually, "What kind of wild vegetable is this? I don't think I've ever seen it before."

The other four people are also frequent visitors to the mountains. They know all the plants and animals in the forest.

Because they were curious about the plants they had never seen before, they took a small hoe and dug along the roots of the sweet potato vine, and they actually dug out a bunch of seven or eight fruits.

Cailai picked them up with his hands and found that each one weighed about one or two kilograms.

Shuangshuang pretended to be surprised and said, "Wow, such a big fruit! If we can eat it, we will be rich."

The brother and sister also nodded, but Dunzi still stopped Shuangshuang from suggesting to have a taste.

“We’ve never seen this before. Although wild boars are fine after eating it, who knows if the fruit underneath is edible?

Why don’t we stay here tonight and find out tomorrow.”

Then they simply set up camp here and stayed in the tree for the night.
