"Congratulations to Madam Jiang first. You've opened a shop in the capital, and business is booming."

Jiang Tuantuan smiled, "Master Zhou is even more amazing. I heard that your business has expanded to the Western Regions, covering a wide range of business, including tea, cloth, grain, and porcelain. I admire you."

Just as Master Zhou was about to speak, he heard footsteps outside, "Dad, Sister Tuantuan, you're here~"

Rou'er said a little aggrievedly: "Why didn't you tell me you were coming?"

Jiang Tuantuan said, "Why wouldn't I tell you? It's just that time is tight and I haven't had time. Look at these walnut cookies. I heard you said you liked them a while ago, so I bought them specially for you."

"Wow, Sister Tuantuan is still the best."

Mr. Zhou laughed and said, "My daughter has made Madam Jiang laugh. She's not much older than me, but her intelligence is much worse than mine. She just eats and plays all day long."

"I really envy Rou'er's personality!"

"Alright, Rou'er, go play by yourself for a while. I have something to say to your sister Tuantuan."

Rou'er said while holding the walnut cake, "I know, Daddy, Sister Tuantuan, now that you guys are done chatting, remember to come play with me in the backyard. I'll have my favorite cakes ready for you."

After saying that, he jumped away.

Seeing that Rou'er had already left, Jiang Tuantuan said seriously, "Master Zhou wants to discuss cooperation with my Jiangyue Pavilion."

Mr. Zhou's eyes lit up, and he stroked his beard. "Mrs. Jiang is really smart. I know your Jiangyue Pavilion sells things like pearl cream. My wife and daughter are using it. I've tried it myself, and it's really good."

He said, "It's such a pity that only people in Fujiang County and the capital can use such a good thing."

"Mr. Zhou really touched my heart. I also hope to pass on the things of my Jiang family to more people."

Mr. Zhou looked delighted. "Why don't we cooperate and sell Jiangyue Pavilion to more places? We can all make more money, right?"

"That's exactly what I meant."

After negotiating for more than an hour, the two parties finally reached a consensus to first buy 100 cans of pearl cream and camellia soap and send them to Yongzhou and Jizhou, which are closest to the capital, to see how the sales are.

Moreover, due to the special nature of the items, they can only be used for two months, so they cannot be transported to farther places for sale, but soap can be used. Therefore, Mr. Zhou plans to transport the soap to the Jiangnan area for sale if the situation in Jizhou and Yongzhou is good.

In terms of price, pearl cream costs three to five hundred wen per jar, and camellia soap costs one to two liang. Although it is much cheaper than what is sold in stores, because of the large quantity, a considerable amount of money can still be made.

Both sides had a pleasant conversation.

Jiang Tuantuan was in a good mood and followed the maid's guidance to the backyard. It took her half a minute to get there. She couldn't help but sigh that the Zhou family was really rich. The Zhou family could replace nearly four of her own family members.

It is also very well built, with rockery, flowing water, potted plants, flowers, plants and trees. It is also well maintained and you can see that it is carefully maintained.

Although such a house is in the outer city, it still costs several thousand taels of silver. As Jiang Tuantuan walked, his mood became less and less happy.

Think about how many years of hard work I have to do to buy such a house. Forget it, let’s not think too much. Let’s take it slow. I, Jiang Tuantuan, must become the richest person in this country!

As soon as I walked into the backyard, I smelled a sweet fragrance, which made Jiang Tuantuan, who had eaten a lot for breakfast, feel hungry.

"Sister Tuantuan, you came at the perfect time. The pastries were just made, and now is the best time to eat them. Paired with a cup of jasmine tea, it can also help to relieve the greasiness. It's super delicious."

Getting hungrier and hungrier, Jiang Tuantuan picked up a piece of cake and took a big bite. Wow, it tasted like roses, so fragrant, sweet but not greasy, and the taste was just right.

Jiang Tuantuan looked at Rou'er with a face full of happiness, "This rose pastry is so delicious, where did you buy it? I want to buy some to stock up on."

Rou'er was very proud. "My cook made this under my guidance. It's pretty good, isn't it? Everyone who has eaten it says it's good."

"The roses here are made with very fine materials. We use rose petals that are still covered with dew in the morning. If there are even the slightest chip or damage on them, they will be thrown away. Then they are crushed bit by bit, and the juice is poured out and mixed with the flour. Then some rose petals are mixed into a paste, and a few large petals are added, and wrapped in the flour. The temperature of the fire pattern is also very particular."

"There's no sugar in it, it's just the pure sweetness of roses. I guarantee that if my rose pastry is ranked second, no other rose pastry would dare to be ranked first."

Rou'er's words were absolutely not an exaggeration. She was indeed very good at appreciating food. Even Jiang Tuantuan felt ashamed of herself.

"Right, Rou'er, didn't you say a while ago that your skirt becomes tight whenever you eat too much? I've designed a new skirt that can perfectly solve this problem. It's almost ready. When it's done, I'll show it off on the street. Remember to come and see it."

Rou'er took her arm and said, "Sister Tuantuan, you are so kind. I just said it casually at the time, but you remembered it."

"I also want to thank you. Your words gave me inspiration and made me think of making a skirt."

When I came, my belly was flat, but when I left, it was round.

Jiang Tuantuan sat in the carriage holding her belly. After arriving home, she held her belly and walked in little by little.

Yubao found his mother's appearance very funny and imitated her by walking with one hand supporting her belly, which made everyone laugh.

There is a saying that goes, children grow up looking at their parents' butts. Jiang Tuantuan immediately put down his arms and walked properly, and his walking was very standard.

She was afraid that Yubao would learn bad things.

After receiving the things, Mr. Zhou immediately sent people to transport them to Jizhou and Yongzhou, and also specially sent Er Jin to be in charge of this matter. It can be seen that Mr. Zhou cares very much.

Mr. Zhou decided to sell it at the price of five taels and two taels, the same as the price in Jiangyue Pavilion store. He wanted to raise the price to six taels, but after thinking about it, he gave up.

We have just started, so don't mess up the current price. After all, you can make one ounce and five hundred coins from one jar, or at least one ounce. The profit is already very high, much higher than selling grain and cloth.

The Zhou family has been in business for nearly twenty years and has connections everywhere. Naturally, they also know some wealthy and noble people, and these are their targets.

Through these connections, a wave of publicity was carried out, and Princess Mingman's name was also borrowed.

Even the princess is using this pearl cream, and the ladies of wealthy and noble families in the capital are all vying to buy it. Although it may not be nice to say this, it is indeed the fact, and the effect is very good. Those who were originally on the sidelines came to buy it as soon as they heard about it. Those who were more cautious found out through inquiries that the princess was indeed using it, and since the Zhou family is a time-honored brand, they had to buy it to try.

Because five taels is a lot for farmers, but it is still affordable for these nobles.
