"Are you going to sell me the secret technique of turning brown sugar into white sugar?"
In fact, he had already made preparations for Shi Qingluo to only sell candy. If he said it was not a pity, that would be a lie.
Shi Qingluo nodded, "Yes, otherwise why would I ask you to bring brown sugar? Of course I want to transform it for you to see."
Bai Xu said in surprise: "That would be great."
He asked, “How do you want to sell it?”
This does not mean that the initiative is handed over to Shi Qingluo, but that he can more easily adapt to circumstances.
The price met his expectations, so he agreed immediately.
If it's too high, he can bargain.
Shi Qingluo could see what he was thinking, but she didn't point it out.
It’s just right for Bai Xu to follow her rhythm.
"One thousand taels of silver, plus 20% of the profit from sugar."
If the Bai family wants to buy candy, they will definitely have to spend money to get through a lot of connections.
In addition, the Bai family was responsible for purchasing, bleaching and selling, so she only asked for 20%.
Bai Xu frowned slightly. One thousand taels was no problem, but he felt that a 20% profit was too high.
"I can give you 10% of the profit." He knew that if he directly used silver to buy it out, this woman would definitely not agree, considering her intelligence and difficulty.
Shi Qingluo said bluntly: "I am a straightforward person and don't like beating around the bush, so I call out the actual price."
"If you agree, we can sign the contract. I'll do it on the spot first so you can see it as proof."
"If you don't agree, just pretend that I didn't let you see Baitang today."
She did not choose to go into business in modern times because she did not like the twists and turns and intrigues.
In this ancient time, the technology was in her hands, so she had the confidence to be so straightforward and do it if she wanted.
"Twenty percent profit is nothing compared to the huge profits you will get from mastering this technology."
"Besides making money, this will also help you spread the name of the Bai family and allow you to get in touch with some people."
She looked at Bai Xu with a half-smile and continued, "It's just like when you grow flowers. You like them, but you can use them to write articles."
Bai Xu: “…” This woman has such a sharp eye.
This was something he didn't expect, that she could see that.
He felt that even the ladies from the aristocratic families in the capital might not be able to see so far, so how could a village girl do that?
So he couldn't help but look at Xiao Hanzheng. Could it be that this person taught him?
Xiao Hanzheng saw through his thoughts at a glance and said with a smile: "My wife is the disciple of the old immortal, so she is very powerful."
Not to mention Bai Xu, even he was amazed at the young wife's vision and intelligence at the beginning.
This kind of young wife was definitely not something he taught.
It was because of his bizarre experience of being reborn that he was able to guess that the origin of his young wife was not simple and she was not the real country girl.
But Bai Xu and others have not experienced these bizarre things, so they will not make too many associations.
Besides, the reasons they put forward are also valid.
Shi Qingluo also smiled and agreed: "Yes, my master ascended to become an immortal, so anything that happened to me is possible."
Anyway, this is the explanation, believe it or not.
Bai Xu: “…” I don’t believe you.
But on second thought, if not, how could this woman know so much? It doesn't seem to make sense.
Don't mention it, he was almost believing it...
He thought for a moment and asked, "Is the method you use difficult? Is it costly?"
Shi Qingluo replied: "It's not a big deal, the cost is very low."
Bai Xu pondered for a moment before saying, "Okay, if you can really turn brown sugar into white sugar that's similar to the one in your jar, I'll give you one thousand taels, plus 20% of the profit."
"But the profit can only be calculated after one month. After all, I had to spend money to build some connections in the previous month."
To do this kind of business, he has to find a backer so that others can't touch him in this regard, so he has to bleed first.
"You have to promise me that when you grow rare and precious flowers, you will sell them to me first."
Although he still didn't quite believe that this woman could grow the flowers she described, but considering that he had been slapped in the face before, he decided to just assume that she could really grow them.
It’s better to be prepared.
"Also, if you have any new good things in the future, you'd better consider me first."
Shi Qingluo did not think about it as deeply as he did, she had already guessed these conditions.
"No problem, I'll give priority to you, but if it's a big deal, I might do it with a few more companies, so you can't force monopoly."
"And I have another request. I want to buy livestock from your uncle, and you have to make the connection."
She also made it clear in advance.
Bai Xu was also straightforward this time, "Okay."
So Xiao Hanzheng went to get paper and pen, and signed a contract with Bai Xu in his name.
Of course, it was also agreed in advance that if Shi Qingluo was unable to turn brown sugar into white sugar, or the cost was too high and troublesome, the contract would be invalidated.
After signing, Shi Qingluo did it again in front of Bai Xu using the yellow mud water and sugar method.
Bai Xu was still stunned when he saw the brown sugar turn into snow-white sugar. Is it that simple? After all, it was still very shocking to see it with his own eyes. It actually works.
After a while, he exclaimed, "Your master is really amazing."
The Taoist priest was in Nanxi County at the time, so why didn't he think of visiting him? What a pity.
Shi Qingluo looked at his regretful expression and felt a little amused.
But it seems that her and her husband's excuses and brainwashing were obviously very effective.
"Of course, I am a real person."
Bai Xu: “…” He didn’t believe this.
He asked her to write the method again carefully.
Then he asked Xiao Si to go to the Bai family and get one thousand taels.
Then Shi Qingluo went to the kitchen and verbally instructed Xiao Xiaomei to make several special tofu dishes that had never been mentioned to anyone before.
Bai Xu tasted the tofu dishes one by one, and surprise appeared in his eyes again.
“This tofu is really good for cooking.”
He then asked, "Apart from these, can you make other dishes?"
Shi Qingluo nodded, "Of course, there are nearly a hundred dishes that can be made with tofu. I can write some for you."
She had never eaten so many tofu dishes, but her cousin had collected a very complete collection.
Bai Xu said with a smile on his face: "Okay, I'll place an order for this tofu starting tomorrow."
He asked, "By the way, can this thing be preserved and used to cook in the capital?"
Shi Qingluo shook his head, "No."
There is no preservation equipment here, so the food cannot be kept for a long time.
Bai Xu thought, "How about you sell me the method of making tofu?"
Shi Qingluo shook his head, "I don't sell this method."
Tofu is the easiest product to sell wholesale to the public. She also hopes to make tofu famous and tie her interests to the villagers and even many people in Nanxi County.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for the villagers to buy and resell things like sugar and paper every day. The demand in the county town is not that great, and the cost is too high, so it is not suitable.
Just when Bai Xu was disappointed, she changed the subject and said, "But I can make some tofu skin, bean curd sticks, fermented bean curd, etc., bean products that can be stored, and you can take them to Beijing to cook."
Bai Xu nodded: "Okay, then you have to tell me how to do it too."
Shi Qingluo smiled and said, "No problem."
After the meal, Bai Xu handed the one thousand taels that Xiao Si brought to Shi Qingluo, and they each took a contract.
Shi Qingluo had just put the banknotes away when someone from the Shi family suddenly showed up at his door.
Seeing this, Bai Xu took Xiao Si away consciously.
