Upon hearing this, Jiang Li sat up straighter and leaned towards Liu Qinghuan: "Is it related to this matter?"
"To be honest with you, Sister Li, Zijun and I are getting married this autumn. We will then move to Yunxi, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to take care of things in Yuncheng. The food supply is a daily necessity for the restaurant, and I can't always provide it in Yunxi."
"With your current financial resources, it's not difficult to buy a farm to grow vegetables and supply the daily needs of several shops." Although there was a great profit at hand, Jiang Li was not carried away.
Liu Qinghuan covered her lips and smiled: "Sister Li is really cautious. To tell you the truth, I am really in trouble because of the money."
"Oh? Is it because you opened a new restaurant and spent all your money?"
"That's not the case. Although the restaurant is new, it's made back its investment in the past few days." Liu Qinghuan would never say that she had invested almost nothing in opening the restaurant except for the money to buy the shop. "I recently met Mr. An from Suzhou. I heard that Suzhou is extremely wealthy and has a huge market, so I wanted to do business there."
Jiang Li was slightly surprised. "Both Yuncheng and Yunxi are very far from Suzhou. Even if you ride as fast as you can, it would take more than three days to go back and forth. How can you open a shop so far away?"
"I'll just find someone to look after it. Uncle Yan also helps me look after it in Yuncheng. The difference between the two places isn't too big."
"you mean?"
"Boss An agreed to work for me, but he asked me to take over eight shops. This drained all my savings. However, according to Suzhou's market conditions, this money is not even enough to rent for a year."
"Are you here to ask me for money?" Jiang Li felt relieved when he heard Liu Qinghuan say this.
The way to do business is to make sure both money and goods are clear. Knowing what Liu Qinghuan was up to, Jiang Li felt at ease.
"Sister Li, don't say that," Liu Qinghuan smiled with narrowed eyes, "We're discussing business."
Jiang Li then smiled and said, "Tell me, what do you want from me?"
"From the moment I laid eyes on Sister Li, I knew she was different from ordinary women. Madam She told me that when she was young, Sister Li had followed your father through the business world. I knew you had great ambitions..."
Liu Qinghuan's flattery was very straightforward and direct. Jiang Li was too embarrassed to listen any longer. "Just say it directly. Are you kidding me by saying this?"
"I'm talking serious business," Liu Qinghuan said, "Five hundred thousand taels of silver, and the technology will be given to Sister Li, one for each."
"Are you my family's moneylender?"
"So is there any hope for discussing this matter with Madam She?"
Jiang Li knew Liu Qinghuan was joking and glared at her. "It's not that I think your skills aren't worth five hundred thousand taels, it's just that the amount is too large, and I really can't agree to your offer."
Jiang Li was not lying. Now, if everyone in the Zhou family, including the foreign concubines brought back by Master Zhou, were included in the total, she would sell them for 500,000 taels.
"I understand that," Liu Qinghuan rubbed his hands and told Jiang Li about another plan he had prepared long ago. He held up two fingers and said, "I'll just lower the price to 200,000."
Jiang Liwei glared at him: "Why, you don't want to live like this anymore?"
"Haha, Sister Li, what are you joking about?" Liu Qinghuan found Jiang Li's surprised expression extremely amusing. "I haven't finished yet. In addition to the two hundred thousand taels of silver, Sister Li will provide me with off-season vegetables. I will purchase them at seasonal prices to meet the daily needs of the Huanxi Shop. I also want to open the Huanxi Shop nationwide, so naturally we have to sell the same dishes. I also need Sister Li to set up branches in various places to supply the goods."
"this……"
