Wu Linshun didn't want to become the sinner of the Wu family. "Huaiyuan, tell me quickly, as long as you can pursue a normal career path, your second uncle is willing."
Wu Huaiyuan looked at the light of hope in Wu Linshun's eyes. He was still his good second uncle, but he did such a bandit-like thing of bullying the weak. Today he also got to know his second uncle again.
I think that during these years of working for the Xu family, this kind of thing has happened more than once.
Wu Huaiyuan said sternly, "There are two solutions for now. The first is to remove Second Uncle from the clan, and the second is to adopt my cousin Hong'er as my father's son. He will then be a descendant of my eldest wife. These two matters must be completed before the judgment is sent to Huayang County to avoid any impact. What do you think, Second Uncle?"
Wu Linshun thought about adopting his son to his eldest brother. He was still the child's biological father, so he was willing as long as it did not affect his career.
"Huaiyuan, Second Uncle agrees, but it's too late. The judgment documents are probably on the way."
Wu Huaiyuan said, "I am still a student in the imperial academy. I can help you appeal to the county magistrate for a day's delay. Think about what you have done over the years. Is there anything you can do to earn merit and atone for your sins?"
Wu Linshun frowned and thought for a moment, "No."
"Uncle, don't be so hasty. Think about it carefully. I won't delay any longer. I need to go back to the village now."
When Wu Huaiyuan passed by Xu Liangxiao's clean and tidy cell, he paused for a moment and looked at Xu Liangxiao lying on the bed.
If my second uncle had not been appreciated by Xu Liangxiao, he would not have been able to buy a big house in the county and become a wealthy man.
I think he has something to do with the misfortune that Second Uncle is in today. It’s not that he fails to manage his subordinates well. He just turns a blind eye.
Not long after Wu Huaiyuan left, someone from the Xu family's second branch came to the cell...
"Mrs. Su, I've written two copies of the food sharing agreement. If you find it satisfactory, we'll sign and seal it."
"good."
Xiao Lingyu took it and looked at it carefully.
Su Ningjie glanced at the words on the agreement and surprisingly didn't recognize them. "Uncle Chu Yu, does the profit sharing mean that if you sell a divine dish, we will take 30% of the money?"
Si Chuyu smiled and said, "Yes, it's 30% profit."
"Uncle Chu Yu, that means we don't do anything and just get paid for nothing. Is that really okay? Mother said we can't just sit back and wait for something to happen, and we can't get something for nothing."
Su Ning'an echoed, "Mother said you can't get something for nothing."
Si Chuyu didn't expect that Mrs. Su was so good at teaching children. They really had a good mother.
Si Chuyu said, "This isn't called getting something for nothing, this is called win-win cooperation. The dishes your mother provides are unique to Beiyi. Your sister Xu had to re-purchase the ingredients in less than two days, which shows that Shenxiancai is very profitable. The dishes your mother provides are very valuable, and she wants to share the profits with you."
"Oh, I see."
Su Ningjie wondered why Sister Xu didn't give any money to his mother?
He remembered that it was Sister Xu who took the initiative to ask to be his mother's person and listen to his mother's orders. The two people Xingyun and Xingying outside were arranged by Sister Xu to protect them.
Uncle Chu Yu took the initiative to propose a share of the profits, which led to the current share-of-profit agreement.
It turns out that cooperation can take different forms.
He learned.
"Master Si, the agreement is fine. You can sign it now."
After signing, Si Chuyu handed over a money box, "Madam Su, this is the amount purchased today and the amount purchased three days later, a total of 11,150 taels. Please count it."
Su Ningjie quickly calculated in his mind and found that it was indeed this silver and money.
Xiao Lingyu was a little surprised to see that the money box contained eleven silver notes with a face value of one thousand taels and one hundred and fifty taels of silver in cash. "Why don't you consider paying the deposit first and then paying the balance after receiving the goods?"
Si Chuyu smiled and said, "That would be too troublesome. This way will save you a lot of trouble."
Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, "Aren't you afraid that I'll abscond with the money?"
Si Chuyu looked at Su Ningjie. He knew that Xiao Lingyu was a good mother and would not do such a thing in front of her children.
Didn’t the children just say that you can’t sit back and wait for something to happen without working for it?
There still needs to be some trust between people.
"Mrs. Su, you won't teach your child bad things."
Xiao Lingyu smiled and put away the money box. "It's getting late. I'll teach you how to cook now. Boss, go to the carriage and bring up all the ingredients that mother prepared."
Five minutes later, all the ingredients were brought into the kitchen of Luyuan Qionglou.
Su Ningjie said, "Mother, I'm going to the restaurant with my elder brother to sell chili peppers. We'll be back in an hour and go home together."
Xiao Lingyu nodded and said, "Go ahead, Boss, remember what mother said."
Su Ning'an said: "Mother, I know, let Xingyun, Xingying and the others protect us."
A moment later, Suningjie finally got what he wanted and took the remaining ingredients with him, running on the road between the big restaurants and taverns in Xishui County.
Su Ningjie was not stupid. He first went straight to the remaining eight big restaurants, and then went to the remaining forty-nine small taverns in turn.
"Young Master, Second Young Master, this restaurant is 'Futai Tower', one of the top three restaurants in Xishui County," Xingyun introduced.
The two brothers looked up at the sign of 'Futailou' and then went into the lobby with the ingredients.
When the owner of Futailou saw the visitor, his eyes lit up and he strode out from behind the counter.
"Young Masters of the Su family, we've finally waited for you. We'd like ten kilograms of each ingredient. Can we buy it now?"
The owner of Futailou stared at the two brothers' private rooms. If he hadn't witnessed the skills of the eldest son of the Su family today, he would have taken them by now.
Su Ningjie asked, "Are you sure we are the Su family and not here for dinner?"
The owner of Futailou laughed and said, "It can't be wrong. This rare ingredient is so famous that everyone from other big restaurants in Xishui County has seen it today..."
The two brothers looked at each other and smiled when they heard this. Wouldn’t it be easy for them to sell chili peppers?
Su Ningjie said, "We don't have much food with us today. We can only sell you one pound of each of the three peppers. If you want a large quantity, you must pay in advance..."
There are not many tomatoes and peppers for sale.
Su Ningjie only sells to Sister Xu and Uncle Chu Yu. Other restaurants cannot compare with them.
"Okay, we'll buy one pound of each. Three days later, we'll need ten pounds of each..."
"Okay, I'll pick up the goods from Qixia Cottage in three days."
Su Ningjie stuffed 605 taels of silver from Futai Building into Su Ningan's private room bag and said, "Brother, I trust you to keep the banknotes."
"Second brother, no one dares to take them."
When the owner of Futailou heard this, he remembered the scene of Su Ning'an throwing people down, and his heart shuddered. He was really worried about those who stole bags.
But don’t risk your life for money!
The two brothers had a successful start. In less than half an incense stick of time, they had sold the three kinds of peppers to the remaining seven large restaurants.
After visiting several taverns, Su Ningjie saw that they were not very willing to buy chili peppers, so he took Su Ning'an back to Luyuan Qionglou.
