Chapter 154 Unexpected Good Fortune



"Mr. Liu? What brings you here at this hour? Is there a problem with the plum blossom cakes?" Old Man Chi felt a little uneasy.

I was really frightened by Shang Renqi's breach of contract.

Liu Demiao laughed heartily and got straight to the point: "Didn't you send me some charcoal last time? I've been using it quite well. Well, I'm just a simple man. Since I've been using it so well, I thought about doing business with you, so I wanted to ask if we could cooperate on a business deal?"

This is truly a stroke of good luck!

Both families were so excited they almost danced for joy!

Even the children were happy.

Silang even ran up to Liu Demiao with a small plate in his hand and said in a childish voice, "Uncle, have some candy."

"Haha, thank you, Uncle."

Liu Demiao didn't stand on ceremony and immediately picked one up and ate it.

It's sweet and sour, which is quite nice.

His eyes lit up immediately: "This is..."

"These are just made by my mom, they're called sugar snowballs! She's planning to sell them in town." Chi Shuxing proudly puffed out his little chest.

Sister-in-law Chi blushed at what she was being told.

The little girl added in her childish voice, "She's my aunt..."

"It was his aunt who insisted on having candy, so I, as her daughter-in-law, made it. I didn't expect it to taste so good, haha."

Aunt Chi gave Chi Wuhu a look, and the latter immediately took his nephews inside to play.

Liu Demiao didn't think much of it.

No matter how quick-witted he is, he couldn't possibly guess that the sugar snowballs were taught to Sister-in-law Chi by Chi Tang, that little baby, right?

"I wonder if I can sell this business?" Liu Demiao abandoned his original purpose for coming here and brought up the matter of sugar snowballs first.

Chi Sihai keenly realized that the other party was talking about "business" rather than "prescription".

He mustered his courage and asked, "I wonder how Mr. Liu plans to do this business?"

It seems that Boss Liu has already figured out that the method for making these sugar snowballs is not difficult.

When the topic of doing business came up, no one else chimed in.

Only Leshan stared intently at the two of them, looking very interested.

"Sihai, let Boss Liu go inside first, it's quite cold outside."

"Haha, it's nothing, it's nothing."

After arriving at the house, Boss Liu drank a bowl of hot water, which immediately warmed his stomach. Then, without keeping anyone in suspense, he directly stated his plans.

"The appeal of these candied hawthorn balls lies in their novelty, but they should be easy to imitate, right? So the bigger the shop selling candied hawthorn balls at the beginning, the more beneficial it is for this business. Because it can help spread the brand, don't you think?"

"Mr. Liu is right."

Old Man Chi nodded earnestly.

Chi Sihai chuckled and added, "Mr. Liu is right, but I think as long as we maintain quality control, even if someone imitates us, although our business will be affected, we can still make some money, right? It's a steady stream of income."

If you want to point out a drawback, is it that they pay too little?

At this moment, Chi Sihai was no longer the timid and silent boy he had been at the beginning; he had already begun to make some plans.

"Hehe, Sihai is right. But what I said also makes sense, doesn't it? So here's what I'm thinking. I won't buy the prince. You tell me how to proceed, and then we'll sign a contract. I'll give you 30% of my earnings from selling sugar snowballs for the first six months. How about that?"

There's no need to talk about any recipes or formulas for this.

If it weren't for... he would have gone home and asked the pastry chef to research it.

but……

Forget it, how much money is too much? I just don't want to offend anyone.

"But how would we know how much money you made, Mr. Liu? Besides, your shop is big, and your investment costs are also high..."

Liu Demiao understood Chi Sihai's concerns and, without much hesitation, said, "How about this? If the 30% net profit I give you each month is less than three taels of silver, I'll give you three taels of silver directly. If it's more than that, I'll give you 30% of the net profit. How about that?"

"Mr. Liu is really straightforward..." Chi Sihai said with a smile.

That way, the family will be secure.

At least I can be sure of earning three taels of silver a month!

Everyone beamed with joy.

Chi Tang was overjoyed and secretly took out a peeled candy from the small courtyard in her space, exclaiming, "Susu, here's some candy for you!"

Xiao Wu immediately picked up Chi Tang and walked over. Liu Demiao smiled and reached out his hand. Chi Tang tossed her little hand over and placed a pink candy in his hand, then asked Xiao Wu to carry her back.

Liu Demiao was extremely surprised: "You made this candy yourselves too?"

It's pink?

He immediately put it in his mouth and tasted it carefully. It tasted sweet and sour, but he couldn't tell which restaurant it came from.

Chi Tang grinned and said, "My sister-in-law made it. She's really good at it."

So doing business with them is a very promising business opportunity!

Liu Demiao stared intently at Sister-in-law Chi, cupping his hands in a respectful bow: "My apologies for my rudeness."

This made Sister-in-law Chi blush deeply, but she wasn't stupid. She didn't explain anything, just blushed and made a few perfunctory remarks before leaving.

It was time for Chi Sihai to add, "Mr. Liu, would you like to stay for lunch? My sister-in-law's family used to own a big restaurant, and she's an excellent cook!"

We also need to let Manager Liu know that their family isn't completely without resources!

If two companies are too different, how can they possibly do business together for long?

"Then I'll shamelessly stay..."

Liu Demiao had his own agenda and was more than happy to accept it.

Then they started talking about the charcoal business.
