Chapter 1514 Who introduced them?
Wei Ronghua was speechless for a moment after hearing her words, unsure of what to say next.
After a moment, he smiled and said, "I am honored by Lord Lu's high regard. I do indeed need a job to make a living. However, this matter of becoming a shopkeeper needs to be made clear. If I rashly agree to it without understanding anything, it would be irresponsible to Lord Lu."
Shu Yu nodded. "What Manager Wei said is true. I have already gained a basic understanding of Manager Wei. I suppose you have guessed the reason why I disguised myself as a woman to go to Hongxiang Cake yesterday. After these two days of getting to know each other, I think you are very suitable to come to my shop. However, Manager Wei probably doesn't know me well yet. If you have any questions, you can ask me directly."
She liked Wei Ronghua's attitude; it showed that he had put his heart into it.
Wei Ronghua breathed a sigh of relief, having formed a preliminary impression of Shu Yu. This Mr. Lu was clearly a reasonable and receptive person, and easy to get along with.
"Then, I, Wei, will take the liberty of doing so."
Shu Yu put down her teacup and looked at him with a smile.
Wei Ronghua paused for a moment, then asked, "I wonder what kind of things Lord Lu's shop sells, what its special features are, and where it is located?"
"Our shop mainly sells sunflower oil and melon seeds, as well as instant noodles. We might add other things later, but it's hard to say for sure. These are all rare items; they're only produced by our Lu Ji workshop and not available anywhere else. As for specialties, the biggest buyer of our sunflower oil is currently the Imperial Palace, and our melon seeds are sold at passion fruit shops in Beijing."
Wei Ronghua's hand tightened. Had it already been sold to the capital and...the imperial palace?
No wonder, no wonder Lu Xiangjun said her shop was three times the size of Hongxiang Cake Shop.
Upon hearing this, Wei Fangfang, who was standing at the door, widened her eyes and became slightly agitated.
After all, when her father was a shopkeeper in the prefectural city, although his shop was quite large, it was definitely not as extensive as Lu Xiangjun's, which sold goods to the capital and the imperial palace.
If her father really worked at Lu Xiangjun's shop, he would definitely be able to better utilize his abilities than he is here.
Wei Fangfang wished she could agree on behalf of her father, but she knew she couldn't go in and disturb them at this moment.
Fortunately, there was a noise coming from the courtyard gate at that moment. She looked up and saw Hu Geng carrying a bundle as he came in.
Inside the bundle were some everyday items that his father had placed in Hongxianggao.
Wei Fangfang quickly stood up, rushed to Hu Geng, and excitedly explained the situation to him.
Hu Geng stopped breathing upon hearing this. "Are you serious?"
Wei Fangfang nodded repeatedly and pulled Hu Geng to sit down outside the main room to listen.
Yingxi stood at the door without stopping them; these things weren't a secret to begin with.
Inside, Shu Yu continued, "Lu Ji originally had a shop in Jiangyuan County, but the workshop's output was not high in the past, so the shop was very small and never grew big, but business was still pretty good. But I intend to make a name for Lu Ji in the prefectural city, so I am very careful about the choice of manager."
Wei Ronghua listened and nodded, gaining a general understanding of the journey.
Shu Yu has said everything she should say. As for the rest, Wei Ronghua will naturally find out once he becomes the manager of Lu Ji.
Wei Ronghua had already agreed in his heart, but he still had one last question.
“I heard from Mr. Lu Xiangjun that you came to Donggu County to find me based on someone’s recommendation. I wonder who that person is.”
