Chapter 341 How many prescriptions does the girl have?
"Miss, Miss, we're back." Lianxin and Luokui returned happily. When they saw Xiao Jiuyue, Luokui ran in quickly and said, "Miss, not only did we get the money back, we also brought the shopkeeper with us."
"Miss, she heard that we made the lip balm ourselves, so she asked if we would sell it?"
Lianxin and Luokui talked to each other and explained what had just happened.
"Go take a shower and change into clean clothes first." Xiao Jiuyue said as she looked at their soaked clothes. She then looked at Dong Gui who was standing beside her and said, "Let the shopkeeper sit for a while."
"Yes." Donggui responded and quickly went to the front hall to bring the person in.
Xiao Jiuyue and her group were a large group, so they found a two-story house with a living room in the front yard, where Jin Wen, Jin Wu, and Shang Yifan lived. The backyard was where Xiao Jiuyue, Lianxin, Luokui, Huaqing, and Donggui lived together.
"Miss, if the shopkeeper can really make a deal, wouldn't that be a good thing?" Luo Kui didn't understand why the young lady was not in a hurry at all.
"Let's go." Lian Xin pulled Luo Kui away and said, "We'll just do whatever the young lady tells us to do!"
"I, I'm just afraid that the young lady will miss it." Luo Kui muttered softly. Even though they were very careful, the hem of her skirt was soaked and mixed with mud, which made her very uncomfortable.
Xiao Jiuyue drank a cup of tea and then asked someone to invite the shopkeeper to the backyard.
An ordinary two-story house is not considered wealthy in Donglin County, but inexplicably, Manager Jin feels that the people living here are different!
She thought the two girls who had just taken out the lip balm were some young lady, but who knew they were actually maids?
When Shopkeeper Jin entered the room, he saw Xiao Jiuyue sitting in the main seat. He was stunned for a moment, then bowed with a smile and said, "Now that I see you, young lady, I understand how such a fine lip balm can be made. Your appearance is truly like the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady descended to earth. I, Jin Ruyu, have never seen such a beautiful girl before."
Shopkeeper Jin is worthy of being in the women's business. With just a few words, she praised Xiao Jiuyue to the sky.
"Thank you, Manager Jin, please sit down." Xiao Jiuyue was not shy and answered gracefully. Having been praised so much, Xiao Jiuyue was also aware of her appearance. She looked at Manager Jin. Unlike Lei Yan's impetuous temperament, Manager Jin exuded an intellectual beauty from head to toe!
She was standing there very seriously, yet she naturally had a kind of charming and elegant beauty. It was not a beauty that was stunning at first glance, but a beauty that was pleasing to the eye, intellectual and elegant.
"Thank you, young lady. My name is Jin Ruyu. I own the largest rouge and powder shop in Donglin County, Ruyu Pavilion!" After Jin Ruyu sat down, she began to introduce herself, saying, "The lip balm at Ruyu Pavilion is made with a secret recipe passed down from my ancestors. Apart from Shengjing, I think my lip balm is the best."
"I saw the lip balm that you brought today, and I thought it was very good. I heard that you made it yourself. I wonder if you would like to have it?" Jin Ruyu's voice was gentle and unhurried.
"It's just a little thing I made when I had nothing to do during the rain." Xiao Jiuyue said casually.
Jin Ruyu couldn't help but twitch her lips when she heard this. This lip balm is better than the one in Shengjing, but why does it seem like a worthless toy in Xiao Jiuyue's mouth?
Xiao Jiuyue may not care at all, but Jin Ruyu does. As long as she can get the formula of this lip balm, her Ruyu Pavilion will be the undisputed number one in the future. She can even expand her rouge and powder shop to the provincial capital!
Jin Ruyu had the idea of going to the provincial capital a long time ago, but she had been hesitant. It was because she had not studied many aspects of the ancestral secret recipe thoroughly to make new lip balm or powder. So she put the idea of going to the provincial capital on hold for the time being.
"Perhaps in your eyes, these are just some little gadgets to pass the time, but in Jin Ruyu's eyes, they are priceless treasures." Jin Ruyu's frankness surprised Xiao Jiuyue. She smiled and asked, "Manager Jin, aren't you afraid that I'll raise the price?"
"You can tell at first glance that the girl isn't that kind of person." Jin Ruyu complimented without thinking, and only then realized, "Does the girl know why I'm here?"
Even though Jin Ruyu thought she was used to big scenes and had seen girls who were willful, self-righteous, cowardly, and heroic, she had never seen anyone like Xiao Jiuyue.
Jin Ruyu's eyes flashed, and she said excitedly, "You deliberately asked them to send the lip balm to me. Are you sure I will come to you after I see the lip balm?"
The more Jin Ruyu thought about it, the more she felt that this was the case. She looked at Xiao Jiuyue and said, "Since you want to cooperate, then I won't hesitate. I'll buy the recipe from you for one hundred taels of silver!"
Lian Xin and Luo Kui, who had just showered and changed clothes and were so anxious that they only wiped their hair half dry, subconsciously stopped and looked at each other. A lady is a lady, and with one move, they got one hundred taels of silver.
Xiao Jiuyue did not refute her. She picked up the tea and drank it slowly: "Manager Jin, are you satisfied with just a lip balm recipe?" She liked dealing with smart people.
"Miss, do you have more prescriptions?" Jin Ruyu stood up excitedly, then felt embarrassed and sat up again. "If you have more prescriptions, we can still negotiate the price."
Jin Ruyu thought long-term. A few prescriptions seemed to cost hundreds of taels of silver, but as long as she did her job well, these spent silver would sooner or later bring back more fish like bait for fishing.
"Forty percent of the profit, the lip balm recipe, and the powder recipe can all be given to you." Xiao Jiuyue went straight to the point.
Jin Ruyu was only slightly shocked and asked, "How many prescriptions do you have, young lady?"
…
"Miss, aren't you afraid that Shopkeeper Jin will take the prescriptions and not pay?" Luo Kui and the others sent Jin Ruyu away and impatiently said, "What if Shopkeeper Jin takes these prescriptions for nothing? Wouldn't that be a huge loss?"
"Luo Kui, do you want to make more money?" Xiao Jiuyue asked instead of answering.
Luo Kui nodded: "Of course I do. Only a fool wouldn't want to, right?"
"Then do you think Manager Jin looks like a fool?" Xiao Jiuyue asked.
Luo Kui shook her head without a second thought and said, "Shopkeeper Jin is very shrewd. We asked around on the way there. She's a widow. All the wealth earned by her ex-husband has been left in her hands. She has many thugs around her and now runs a cosmetics shop. Business is booming."
"It's just strange, why didn't those bandits bully her?" Lianxin asked curiously.
"I don't know." Luo Kui shook his head.
"If they can open a shop, they must have some skills." Xiao Jiuyue was in a particularly good mood when she saw that she had another source of income. She stood up and went to the kitchen and said, "Today, in addition to the eight-treasure rice, we will also stew some pork elbows. Thank you all for your hard work these days!"
After Xiao Jiuyue finished speaking, Luo Kui and Lian Xin both felt embarrassed. It had been raining recently, and they had been staying in the yard, and they were so bored!
