A simple horse-drawn carriage was traveling on the Xianyang Highway.
"Father, where are we going?"
Qian Duo rubbed his sleepy eyes.
He didn't know what was wrong with his father. He dragged him out of bed and into the carriage so early in the morning.
"To the bakery."
Qian Dafu glared at Haodaer with a look of disappointment.
He had been eating bread for more than a month without even thinking about where it came from. He just read those tattered books all day long.
Upon hearing this, Qian Duo's hazy eyes instantly lit up.
Recalling the crispy and fragrant bread, the soft and sweet cake... his mouth began to secrete saliva.
"Father, let's buy more today."
"We have to be able to grab it if we want to buy it!"
Qian Dafu sighed dejectedly.
This bread is so delicious that it is sold out within a quarter of an hour after it is put on the shelves at the supply and marketing cooperative.
So he comes here early every day to buy supplies, and today he brought his son with him for another purpose...
“Ouch~”
When the carriage stopped, the father and son lifted the curtain and got out. They didn't expect to run into Zhang Hai and others as soon as they got out.
Qian Dafu cursed the old fox in his heart, but greeted him with a smile on his face.
"Brother Zhang, what a coincidence! Are you here to buy some bread too? But this bread is expensive. Can your supply and marketing cooperative in the outer city sell it?"
"Thank you for your concern, Brother Qian. I just bought some for my family to try."
Zhang Hai remained calm in the face of Qian Dafu's sarcasm and ridicule, and answered without a single mistake.
The other businessmen remained silent, but their eyes flashed with brilliance.
After everyone filed into the front hall of the bakery, A Ye and A Hua came over to greet them.
"I wonder what important matter is that you have come to visit me personally?"
A Ye's face was tense and he asked in a serious tone.
These old foxes are very shrewd. I spent a long time negotiating with them when I was bargaining for the price.
Normally, they would just send servants to pick up the goods, but today they all came in such a grand manner, so they must have ulterior motives.
"Shopkeeper Ye, Qian will speak frankly."
These merchants living in the inner city also have considerable connections.
Naturally, he knew that the brother and sister were protected by someone, so even though they were young, he did not dare to look down on them or neglect them.
"In a few days, I may have to go to another county. The bread made by your shop is sweet and delicious, and I love it very much. I wonder if you can sell me the recipe?"
Qian Dafu expressed his intention sincerely.
Seeing that Qian Dafu had taken the lead, other businessmen also offered their own conditions.
"My dear shopkeepers, Mr. Zhang would like to offer ten gold coins for a bread recipe."
"Ten gold? You're such a stingy kid, Zhang! I, Li, am willing to pay you twenty gold!"
"I'll give twenty gold too!"
“…”
Merchants competed to bid and the atmosphere was very heated.
Not noticing that Aye's face was becoming increasingly gloomy, Ahua was also very angry, with her face flushing red.
The bread recipe was given to them by their elder sister so that the brother and sister could make a career and have something to rely on in the future.
Now these merchants want to buy out the prescription for just a few dozen gold coins. Do they really think they are naive and easy to fool?
My sister taught them the principle of draining the pond to catch all the fish.
"That's enough! We won't sell our son."
A Ye's childish and loud shout interrupted the merchants' wishful thinking.
"If you insist on doing so, please go back."
Ah Hua also refused with a fierce look on her face.
She was not afraid that these businessmen would have any bad intentions, because the guards sent by her sister to protect them were watching them in secret.
"This... you won't lose anything by selling the house..."
"Yes, we are not doing business in Xianyang."
“…”
The businessmen still refused to give up, but Qian Dafu noticed that the determination on the brother and sister's faces did not waver at all.
Alas, he knew this trip would not go smoothly.
Although he is young, he is not stupid. Of course he knows which to choose between the egg and the hen that lays it.
Fortunately, he prepared another way to cooperate.
"Boss, could you expand the bakery and hire more people? Qian wants to make long-term purchases."
Hearing this, A Ye A Hua's expression finally relaxed, and a commercial smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
"We are expanding our scale. If Shopkeeper Qian wants to cooperate, why not sign a contract first? We will give you priority in supplying goods."
Because A Ye and A Hua opened a bakery, Chu Yuening taught them a lot of business knowledge in detail.
I’m afraid they’ll be cheated out of nothing.
"Of course, then Qian would like to thank the two shopkeepers."
Qian Dafu bowed and said that the contract was not only a guarantee for the bakery but also for himself.
“I also want to purchase for a long time!”
"And me, can I sign the contract today?"
“…”
The other businessmen are not fools. Now that things have come to this, if they can't get the recipe, they must at least get the supply channels.
After signing the cooperation agreement, Qian Dafu took his son home by car.
"If I am assigned to another county, remember to come and help me pick up the goods every day at noon."
"Ah? So early? Father, I can't get up!"
"If you can't get up, I'll let your mother pull you up."
"No! Wuwuwu... Father, you are so cruel. Can't you let the servant take it?"
Qian Dafu ignored his son's protest.
What a joke! How could there be any mistake with such a large amount of valuable cargo?
After 6pm in the evening, inside the bakery.
Chen Cui cleaned the dust in the bread oven with quick movements.
"Okay, it's time to get off work. Aunt Chen, you should go home quickly."
There was admiration in Aunt Azhu's helpless eyes. Who doesn't like hardworking and capable employees?
