Three days later.
"Sister Li, are you looking for me?" Liu Qinghuan came out from the kitchen, took the rag on the counter and wiped her hands, and saw Mrs. Zhou Jiang Li waiting for her at the counter.
"Well, let's talk about some business." Jiang Li glanced around. "It's not convenient to talk here. Is there a vacant private room upstairs?"
Liu Qinghuan glanced at Yan Xu, and Yan Xu replied, "There's another room, but it's booked. I don't know when the guest will arrive."
Mrs. Zhou smiled and said, "It won't take long. It will be done in a moment."
Liu Qinghuan nodded when he heard this: "Uncle Yan, which room is it? I'll take Sister Li there."
"Room number five."
"Well, Sister Li, come with me."
The two entered the private room, and Tian Rong then added tea.
"I heard that the Jie family is looking for trouble with you?" With no outsiders around, Jiang Li asked with a gossipy look on his face.
Liu Qinghuan waved her hand. "Ms. Jie must have fallen for Ye Zijun at your party last time, so she's here to cause trouble. It's just a small matter, so you don't have to worry about it, Sister Li."
Jiang Li had heard most of what had happened by now, and seeing Liu Qinghuan saying this, he stopped asking questions and just got down to business: "I came here because of the crystal egg."
Liu Qinghuan wasn't surprised and poured tea for Jiang Li: "You want wholesale?"
"Well, my husband will be staying at home for a month or so and will be going out to sea again. You happen to have some good stuff here. I'm sure he'll sell it well this time."
Liu Qinghuan knew that the Zhou family was a major maritime trader, so he nodded and said, "Okay, Sister Li, how much do you want? I'll make it according to yours."
Seeing Liu Qinghuan coming forward, Jiang Li extended his index finger and said, "Ten thousand."
Liu Qinghuan glared.
Ten thousand.
She is destined to receive orders, but is she destined to do the work?
He laughed dryly and said, "Sister Li is really a big business owner."
"Let's be frank. I want this much. Can you lower the price a bit?"
Liu Qinghuan didn't hide it and said directly: "Sister Li, this is not a question of price. Look, I only have so few people here. Ten thousand will only last a long time."
Jiang Li thought about it and realized that her sister’s restaurant was indeed well run, but the scale... was really small.
"Then...how about I invest in building a factory for you?"
Liu Qinghuan didn't expect Jiang Li to have this kind of train of thought.
"That's not what I meant."
"So you don't want to take this order from me?" Jiang Li's eyes revealed murderous intent.
"..." Liu Qinghuan suddenly felt the urge to survive, "No, Sister Li, listen to me."
Jiang Li narrowed his eyes: "Then tell me nicely."
"My energy is limited, and I only want to work in the catering industry. Making preserved eggs is just a side job, and I produce and sell them myself. But Sister Li, although I don't have the ability to make them for you, I can sell you this recipe."
Jiang Li smiled instantly when he heard this: "You want to give me the prescription directly? That's great, just tell me the price."
"How much can you give?"
Liu Qinghuan looked at Jiang Li in front of him, feeling panic. When this woman followed her father into business, he was still in high school, right?
"Eight hundred taels, how about that?" Jiang Li thought about it.
Liu Qinghuan looked troubled: "This... Sister Li, look, there are two ways to sell a house."
Jiang Li became interested: "Oh, tell me, which two ways of selling?"
"One is that I'll sell it to anyone who wants it, with a clearly marked price. The other is that I'll only sell this recipe to you, no one else." Liu Qinghuan saw that Jiang Li seemed to be thinking, "You're well-informed and know merchants from all over the world. If you monopolize this recipe, won't you be making a lot of money?"
Although the Zhou family has transformed into import and export trade in recent years, her family still does most of the business in Jiangnan.
If it's a monopoly...
