Chapter 279 Tips
As soon as Zhang Juexia finished speaking, Manager Wan agreed without hesitation, "You want to get dividends, but that's not easy to do. I'll ask the accountant to list the fried chicken business in a separate account.
Oh, let's stop talking nonsense and sign the contract quickly."
While Zhang Juexia was drinking tea, Shopkeeper Wan had someone draft the contract. "Ms. Ye, come and take a look. If there are no problems, we'll do it this way."
Zhang Juexia picked up the contract and read it carefully.
She only needs to provide the secret recipe for making fried chicken, and she doesn't need to worry about anything else, and she can get a 4% profit. "Manager Wan, you have to add one more thing. This secret recipe is not unique to you. I can also sell it to other families."
"That's right, that's right. However, Miss Ye, we are old acquaintances. I have no other requests. I just want this shop to be the only one in our town. That's all I need!"
Zhang Juexia smiled and said, "Of course."
Manager Wan asked someone to revise the contract and asked Zhang Juexia to look it over again. After confirming that it was correct, the two of them signed and sealed it.
"Manager Wan, I have other things to do today. How about this? When you are free, take the chef to the county town and learn the craft.
Also, I will give you another dish later. This dish is a gift from me. I won’t take any share of the profits, and you won’t have to spend money to buy the secret recipe.”
Shopkeeper Wan smiled as brightly as a blooming spring flower, "Ms. Ye, how can this be so embarrassing?"
"There's nothing to be embarrassed about. We've become partners. I certainly hope your business will continue to grow."
"Ms. Ye is really thoughtful. Leave your address and I'll take people to the county town tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."
Zhang Juexia left his address, and Manager Wan smiled and sent them out of the restaurant.
Zhang Juexia, who was sitting in the carriage, rubbed his lips that were sore from laughing, and then told Lin Yuan, "Go to Li's Mansion."
Lin Yuan was not very familiar with Jinshui Town. Under the command of Zhang Juexia, they finally stopped the carriage in front of the gate of Li Mansion.
The gatekeeper of the Li Mansion recognized Zhang Juexia and welcomed her into the mansion with a smile, "You haven't been here for a long time."
"I wasn't in town for a while."
"No wonder you're still waiting here. I'll be right back."
Soon, Zhang Juexia was welcomed into the reception room of Li's mansion.
Qian Yulin pretended to be unhappy and looked at Zhang Juexia, "You finally remembered me."
Zhang Juexia smiled and said, "I've always wanted to come and see my aunt, but I'm usually too busy."
Qian Yulin let her take a seat and pointed at her. "That's the most far-fetched excuse I've ever heard. You just don't want to come. If you wanted to come, you'd probably find time no matter how busy you are."
"I can't hide anything from you, Auntie. I just feel like I don't know how to persuade you now, so I'd rather let you adjust slowly.
As time goes by, it will naturally fade away.”
"He's a good kid indeed. Well, now I've sorted myself out.
A while ago, I also went to see Li Yidong from Li Ji Pharmacy and took some Chinese medicine for a while."
"Aunt, you are right to do this. After all, the entire Li Mansion cannot do without you."
Qian Yulin sighed, "My master and I are very fond of the child in the eighth concubine's belly, and we hope that she can fight for her honor and give birth to a boy.
But who knew...the result would be like that, which really gave us a big blow.
Outsiders may say that I am pretentious, because the child was not born from my belly.
Given the situation in our family, no matter whose child comes from the womb, as long as it is the master's, we are happy.
Well, she is just unlucky after all."
Zhang Juexia just listened quietly.
Qian Yulin quickly forced a smile and said, "I'm sorry to make you laugh."
"Auntie is genuine, I like her."
"You kid, I forgot to tell you that you don't show up on weekdays, but you send things frequently.
I have used all those soaps, creams, etc., and they are very useful.
And the fried chicken was so delicious, even thinking about the taste now makes my mouth water!"
"Aunt, if you like it, I'll have someone send some more."
"Don't bother yourself with that."
"It's no trouble. Shopkeeper Wan will have some to sell in a few days."
"Then whenever you want to eat it, I'll send someone to buy it."
Qian Yulin sent Aunt Liu away and quietly asked, "I also heard that Yingyue's aunt is interested in your shop."
"I have already thought of a plan to deal with this. I came here today just to talk to you, nothing else."
Qian Yulin looked at Zhang Juexia, who was calm and composed, without any trace of pretense, and believed her words, "You really don't need my help?"
"Not needed at the moment."
"In fact, you can mention the Shen family appropriately in front of the magistrate's wife."
Zhang Juexia didn't understand.
Qian Yulin reminded her, "Mrs. Shen's other son is a Beijing official. I heard that he has already reached the third rank at a young age.
Yingyue's mother, who is also my eldest sister-in-law, mentioned to me that the county magistrate has always wanted to get a promotion, but every year he is just a little short of the mark.
If the magistrate's wife knew that you had a close relationship with the old lady of the Shen family, she might give up her thoughts on your shop."
Zhang Juexia stood up from the stool gratefully and bowed respectfully to Qian Yulin, "Thank you for your advice, auntie."
Qian Yulin quickly helped her up and said, "You are such a distressing child.
We were just gossiping, I didn't say anything!"
Qian Yulin looked outside and said, "It's getting late. Why don't you stay and have dinner before leaving?"
Without waiting for Zhang Juexia to answer, Nanny Liu pushed the door open and looked at Qian Yulin a little embarrassedly, "Madam?" Then she turned around and looked at Zhang Juexia.
Zhang Juexia saw what Aunt Liu was thinking. She must have something to say to Qian Yulin. "Aunt, I still have things to do. I'll go back first."
Qian Yulin called her, "Mammy, Juexia is not an outsider. Just say whatever you want to say."
"The Eighth Concubine is outside, and she's making a fuss about seeing you and Miss Zhang."
"Then let her in! We haven't done anything wrong, and it's not like we can't see anyone."
When Aunt Liu went out to pass on the message, Qian Yulin pursed his lips and said impatiently, "Your sister always wants to cause trouble for me.
I clearly gave her the opportunity to live a rich and prosperous life, but she didn’t take it. Now I’m even more upset…”
After Zhang Qiuye was led in by Aunt Liu, he first bowed respectfully to Qian Yulin.
Only after Qian Yulin asked her to stand up did she raise her head and look at Zhang Juexia.
"It's Qiuye's fault. Qiuye didn't know that Madam had guests here. If he knew, Qiuye wouldn't be in a hurry to see Madam."
"It's not like you don't know each other. Isn't the Eighth Concubine anxious to come see me so she can see your sister?"
