"Really?" Yun Yuan said meaningfully, "Yan Xiaoman knows a lot of things. I want her to make everything she knows, and then I'll make something even better based on her knowledge, so that she will collapse and become furious."
"As you say."
Yun Yuan said seriously, "Yan Xiaoman knows a lot of unique recipes. Do you know any reliable restaurants? I'll copy the recipes and then find a restaurant to cooperate with."
If she remembered correctly, after Yan Xiaoman made enough money from selling braised meat, he would make malatang, barbecue milk tea and hot pot base.
After Ji Shen passed the imperial examination, Yan Xiaoman would begin to enter the industrial field.
Relying on her memories from her previous life, she not only made daily necessities such as soap and glass, but she even successfully reproduced building materials such as cement.
After Ji Shen passed the imperial examination and became a Jinshi, in order to help him gain a foothold in the court, Yan Xiaoman successively presented him with design drawings of gunpowder, bombs and cannons.
These actions successfully promoted the historical process of the entire plane, allowing the world to leap from the era of cold weapons to the era of hot weapons.
At the same time, Yan Xiaoman's business empire continued to expand. Her business spread all over the country, and wealth flowed into her pocket like a tide.
It is indeed a refreshing story to put yourself in the shoes of Yan Xiaoman. However, Yun Yuan is now a vicious female supporting role whose mission is to go against the heroine.
She thought, since that was the case, she would compete with the heroine to see who would win in the end.
Ji Huai said seriously: "I think Huai Shang Restaurant is okay."
Yun Yuan was stunned: "Which Huai?"
Ji Huai: "It's the Huai character in my name. To be honest, I opened the Huai Shang Restaurant."
This was unexpected for Yun Yuan. She chuckled and said, "If I remember correctly, you were just crying poor to me a few days ago."
Ji Huai, who was exposed, inevitably felt guilty. He scratched his head awkwardly and said, "I didn't mean to lie to you..." I just had other thoughts in mind.
Fortunately, Yun Yuan didn't care about that. Instead, she got straight to the point and asked, "So, how much share are you going to give me?"
Ji Huai thought about it and asked cautiously, "How much do you want?"
Yun Yuan thought for a moment and said, "How about I take seven and you take three?"
Ji Huai thought she would take all of it, but unexpectedly she only wanted 70%, so he agreed immediately: "Okay." In fact, it would be fine if she took all of it.
Yun Yuan felt like she was at a disadvantage after being promised so readily. She asked gloomily, "Is your restaurant also cooperating with Yan Xiaoman?"
Ji Huai shook his head without hesitation: "She approached us to sell her recipe, but the manager saw that her recipe was just a novel combination, without any special skills, and could be easily made by other people, so he didn't want it."
Yun Yuan asked, "How much silver did she sell it for?"
Ji Huai said, "A dish of shredded pork with fish flavor costs ten taels of silver, and I'll give her a 20% commission for every dish I sell."
"It's really not worth it." Yun Yuan thought, fish-flavored shredded pork does not require much technical content, it can only be sold for its freshness.
Restaurants have spies for each other, so once a new dish appears, other restaurants will know about it immediately. Their chefs are not there to sit back and do nothing. If you launch a new dish today, it will appear in other restaurants tomorrow. It's a bit naive to even think about the 20% commission.
She asked curiously, "Did she sell the recipe in the end?"
Ji Huai: "I sold it. I paid two taels of silver for the recipe of one dish. There is no profit."
Yun Yuan nodded. This was normal. Modern home cooking did not require much technical skills. It was not easy to make a fortune by relying on recipes.
Ji Huai: "Actually, what we want to know is how to make Yan's tofu, but she won't tell us. She won't sell it to us no matter how much money we offer, saying that she wants to pass it down as a family craft."
Yun Yuan couldn't help but shake her head. How much tofu could the three of them make every day? How much money could they earn? It would be better to sell the recipe to make more money and find another way out.
To put it bluntly, even if you can't find another way out, you can come back to sell tofu. The county town is so big and there are so many people, it is impossible to do it all with just one or two businesses.
It is said that the three most difficult things in life are ironworking, rowing, and making tofu. It would be a shame for Yan Xiaoman to leave any of her family's heirloom skills to the Yan family, but she chose to make tofu. It was unclear whether she really liked them or was just pretending to like them.
Yun Yuan said, "Making tofu is not complicated. It requires a special substance called brine. The tofu made with brine is relatively hard and is called old tofu. Another method uses gypsum, which can be used to make soft tofu. See where the Yan family gets it, and bring some back so we can try it."
Ji Huai: "Where did you know this?"
Yun Yuan blinked: "Of course I saw them taking things out. You don't know, what I like most is to disturb their lives."
Ji Huai was a little unconvinced. The Yan family was not fools, so how could they let her see it so easily?
But since Yun Yuan didn't want to talk about it, he didn't ask any more questions and said seriously, "No matter what you want to do, I will stand firmly behind you."
Meeting his determined eyes, Yun Yuan's smile gradually faded, "Do you have other thoughts about me?"
There was a flash of panic in Ji Huai's eyes, and he didn't know how to answer.
If he said no, he didn't want to lie to her privately.
If the answer is yes, will she find him disgusting and drive him away?
Yun Yuan already knew his answer. A look of understanding appeared on her face. She said angrily, "How dare you covet your own sister-in-law!"
Ji Huai said anxiously: "Big Brother and I are not blood brothers. I will find out his life experience and prove it to you later. Can you please not reject me first?"
Yun Yuan was shocked. This was not written in the plot.
