"Still in swaddling clothes!"
These four simple words made Li Yan stunned, and a bloody plot instantly emerged in her mind!
Could it be that Qin Yue was born to General Qin and his concubine in the northwest? Otherwise, how could a dignified son of a general's mansion be accompanied by only an old servant? Or was this the way the general's mansion trained their children?
Li Yan shook her head. This was not something she could speculate about. She picked up the sour jujube cake from the plate in front of her and started eating.
Li Yan thought that if Qin Yue didn't come back after she finished eating the snack in her hand, she would go to the city to find the owner of Piaoxianglou. The cooperation had not yet been concluded, and Li Yan felt a little uneasy.
Just as Li Yan finished eating a piece of date cake and stood up to say goodbye, there was suddenly a noise outside the door.
Li Yan looked towards the door, only to see Qin Yue rushing into the inner room like a gust of wind. Seeing that Li Yan was still there, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Li Yan saw that his hair was messy due to the wind and his trouser legs were stained with mud. This man should not have been at home just now, but seemed to have rushed back!
Qin Yue didn't bother to change into clean clothes first, and bowed: "Sorry, sorry, I kept Miss Li waiting for so long. I wonder if you came to see me because you have an idea about the business plan!"
Li Yan didn't keep the secret and directly handed the plan to Qin Yue: "Young Master, you can take a look first!"
Qin Yue took the plan and sat down on a stool beside him. Early this morning, Qin Yue rushed to the farm outside the city. These days, Qin Yue would go outside the city every day to check on the progress of planting. This matter was related to the rations of the Northwest Army, so he could not be careless!
After about half a cup of tea, Qin Yue stood up in surprise, looking at Li Yan with bright eyes: "Miss Li is so smart at such a young age. I would like to thank you on behalf of the people of Rongcheng!" After that, he bowed to Li Yan!
Once such a market is built, it will surely attract many merchants. With so many people coming to the city, they will definitely need to spend money, and the expenses for food, clothing and other daily necessities will certainly not be small. It’s exciting just to think about it!
Li Yan quickly dodged. She wanted to hold such a market, actually she had some selfish motives. She hoped to lay a foundation for her family's development through such a market.
"Young Master Qin, there's no need to do this. If Rongcheng can develop, all the people born here will benefit!"
Qin Yue nodded in agreement.
Having said so much, he still hadn't asked Qin Yue if he would invest: "Such a good opportunity, would you like to invest in the construction? After this market is built, the business here should be good!"
Qin Yue didn't answer but asked: "Where is the girl?"
Li Yan said frankly, "I want to take over two shops. One is for food business outside the market, and the other is for fur business inside the market for my uncle. However, I'm afraid I don't have enough money. I'll wait until County Magistrate Zheng announces the investment limit before I decide!"
"How much do you want? I'll have someone give it to you!" Qin Yue asked.
Li Yan waved her hand: "No need, I've already thought about it. I can find a partner with Qian, the owner of Piaoxianglou, to open a food shop. He'll pay for the shop and I'll run it!"
Qin Yue couldn't help but become more excited when he heard her say this: "Then why did you go so far to find me?"
Li Yan looked Qin Yue up and down: "You?"
"Yes, let's cooperate. What kind of business do you want to start? I'll invest in the shop and you can choose it. As for the profit sharing, how about a 30-70 split?"
Worried that he wasn't clear enough, he added, "I'll take three, you'll take seven!"
When Qin Yue came to Rongcheng, he asked Yingyi to inquire about it. Many of the signature dishes of Piaoxianglou were made by this girl. The shop that was originally on the verge of bankruptcy was revived because of Li Yan's recipes. Now, cooperating with her to open a food shop would definitely make money!
Seeing that he wasn't joking, Li Yan said, "If you want to open a shop with me, fine. I'll be responsible for all aspects of the shop's management, operations, and staffing. You can't interfere. Also, if we open a food shop, I can accept a 20/80 split. I can only give you 20%! If you can accept that, I can work with you!"
Qin Yue didn't care about this little bit of profit, and agreed without hesitation: "Since that's the case, let's make it a deal!"
After finishing talking to Qin Yue about the shop, Li Yan stood up and was about to leave when she suddenly remembered the cows at home: "I have to thank you, Mr. Qin. We have used up all the cows at home now. Do you want me to take them to the General's Mansion?"
"No need, I'll send someone later!" Right now, the farms outside the city are busy tilling the crops, and a few more cows will make the process faster!
