Hou Zhiqiang couldn't help but look at Ye Ran with newfound respect. She even knew how to draw up a contract, which meant she had planned ahead. This business deal might be a good opportunity to make a fortune off him.
"No problem, we can set one up right away. Honey, go and borrow a piece of paper and a pen from the doctor."
Ji Yin listened attentively to the two discussing their collaboration and immediately got up to go look for them.
After Ji Yin was found, the two discussed some details of their collaboration further.
Given that this matter had to be carried out discreetly, making pastries at Ye Ran's house was definitely out of the question. In the countryside, if something happened in someone's house, it would spread like wildfire throughout the entire village within an hour.
Once Ye Ran starts making pastries, the aroma will definitely be impossible to hide. People are already eating poorly these days, so if someone's house smells delicious every day, people will inevitably come to check it out, which would be a disaster.
Another point is that Ye Ran and Hou Zhiqiang both highly approve of her skills and are very confident that she can sell a lot of food, so there will definitely be a lot of materials, and it will be troublesome to move them around.
So in the end, the two of them agreed to do it at Hou Zhiqiang's house, as the location was both secluded and convenient for business people to come and go.
However, this would definitely make things a bit harder for Ye Ran, as she would have to travel to the city every day.
At this point, Hou Zhiqiang became a little embarrassed, "I'm sorry, little sister, there really wasn't a better way, so I'll just have to trouble you."
"It's alright, none of this is a problem. I have to say, you're really amazing, brother! You calculate everything so clearly. I feel that doing business with you is definitely the right choice!" Ye Ran praised sincerely.
Listening to Ye Ran's flattery, Hou Zhiqiang felt a little smug. What could he do? Who could resist being genuinely praised by such a young girl? Especially a pretty girl like Ye Ran.
Seeing Hou Zhiqiang's smugness, Ji Yin couldn't stand it anymore and couldn't help but pour cold water on him, "Hmph! Look at how smug you are! When business is bad, let's see how you'll have the nerve to tell the girls!"
Hou Zhiqiang straightened his back confidently, "That's impossible! In all my years and in all my business dealings, I've never been so certain that I'd make money. This time, it's definitely going to happen. Honey, just wait for me to buy you a bicycle!"
Seeing Hou Zhiqiang's attitude of buying things for her even while making money, Ji Yin felt a sweet warmth in her heart, but she still gave him a slightly awkward glare.
"You're always talking about these unfounded things. I'll be looking for the real thing when the time comes."
Hou Zhiqiang immediately fawned over Ji Yin, "Absolutely! Honey, just you wait and see! Let's get started today! Sis, I'll go get ready first!"
Watching Hou Zhiqiang and Ji Yin's oblivious intimacy, Ye Ran felt a pang of envy. Whether in their past life or now, their relationship was always so strong.
No matter what others said about Ji Yin's inability to have children, or how they belittled Hou Zhiqiang as a childless man, it never affected their relationship.
Can she have such a relationship?
For some reason, Ye Ran suddenly pictured Lu Yi confessing his love to her in a serious tone. If she had accepted, would she... would she have been as happy as Ji Yin?
