Ye Daquan said smugly, "This was my little sister's idea."
Manager Lin laughed heartily: "Madam Ye, you have a truly ingenious idea. Your outhouse doesn't smell at all. Could you give me the blueprints? Our Baiwei Restaurant would like to make one too."
"Oh?" Ye Caiping looked up. "Master Su agreed to this?"
"I can handle such a small matter; it's just a toilet."
The main problem is that they run restaurants, and because of the large number of customers, both the latrines and outhouses easily become full and dirty, requiring frequent cleaning. Removing odors is also a tedious task.
He used Ye Caiping's outhouse a few times while hauling goods, and it became more and more convenient with each use.

Manager Lin smiled and said, "That would be even better, as for the fee..."
"We offer a package deal, including both materials and labor. It costs eight taels of silver to make one!"
Shopkeeper Lin gasped, "Wow, why is it so expensive?"

"Our goods are loaded, I'll be off now."
After Manager Lin left, Ye Erquan, looking completely bewildered, came over and asked, "Little sister, do I need to build him a latrine?"
"Yes, your outhouse business has come in," Ye Caiping said with a smile.
