Chapter 900 A Large Piece of Silver
"No exaggeration, no exaggeration. I'm honored that you've become a local notable. After all, we're collaborating on selling scar removal cream, right?"
When the topic of scar removal cream came up, Shu Yu couldn't help but ask, "How are these creams selling these days?"
"Okay, very good." Doctor Xu stood up. "Wait a moment, I'll go get the account book for you to look at."
"Huh? I didn't..." I didn't mean to look at the ledger now.
However, Dr. Xu had already gone out, and a short while later he came back in with an account book and a familiar box.
He placed the ledger in front of Shu Yu, opened the box, and pushed it forward. "Here, this is the money I earned while you were away. This is your share. Take it. I heard the Emperor also rewarded you with a large mansion. I suppose you'll need a lot of money. This money will come in handy."
"So many?" Shu Yu didn't bother to look at the ledger; she took out the banknotes first.
After counting, there were actually five thousand taels of silver.
Dr. Xu chuckled and took a sip of tea. "I found a route to Jiangnan where there are many wealthy people who are willing to spend money. And sure enough, the orders came in all at once."
However, scar removal cream is not an everyday product. We had a lot of orders in the early stages, but we will definitely have to find other channels to sell it later.
Although Dr. Xu knows many people, his knowledge is still limited. He can't take too big a step at once, or he might cause trouble. It would be terrible if the formula for the scar removal cream were taken away by someone else.
Fortunately, things have taken a turn for the better. Shu Yu has become the village head, and now they can start thinking about expanding outwards.
Thinking of this, Dr. Xu asked her in a low voice, "Miss Lu, you've been in the Southwest for so long, you must know quite a few people, right?"
Shu Yu immediately understood Doctor Xu's plan by listening carefully to what he said.
"Doctor Xu wants to sell his scar removal cream in the southwest region?"
Do you think it's feasible?
Shu Yu thought for a moment, "It is feasible, but the southwest is remote and poor, and there are not as many rich people as in Jiangnan. The sales volume may not be as good as in Dong'an Prefecture."
"That's alright." As long as there's one route, that's fine.
Shu Yu actually thought going to the capital was fine, but the letter she had Xiang Weinan send to the capital had just been mailed, and she had just sincerely admitted her mistake. It wouldn't be good to make any big moves at this time, so she didn't mention it to Doctor Xu.
However, the two did discuss a lot about the business along the southwest route. After Doctor Xu formulates a rough plan, Shu Yu will write a letter to the Huifeng Escort Agency in Heichang County.
She didn't know many merchants in the Southwest, but the Feng Escort Agency had extensive connections and considerable influence. By giving them a share of the profits, she could still make the deal.
Shu Yu spent quite a while at the clinic, and after talking with Dr. Xu for a while, she realized it was already very late.
She immediately stood up to say goodbye, "Then I'll be leaving now. If you need anything, just ask someone to come find me in Liufang Lane."
"OK."
After seeing Shu Yu out the door, Dr. Xu hurriedly returned to the backyard.
He needed to quickly devise a plan, and the first item on the list was the profit-sharing issue. Previously, Shu Yu had simply sold the recipe to him, and he was responsible for the production and sales. She didn't handle anything else and therefore only received 10%.
Things are different now. The southwest region still needs her, so we can't keep giving her such a small share of the profits.
Dr. Xu pondered for a moment, then began to write rapidly. Only after finishing did he realize a problem—he seemed to be a doctor, not a businessman!
Shu Yu didn't care what Doctor Xu thought; with five thousand taels of silver in her pocket, she couldn't wait to go home.
