Chapter 175 Rejection
But Zou Ping heard that this imperial concubine came from a humble background. She used to live with her family in the poor and war-torn north, and her family was not rich.

Although a sugar store has been opened now, the time is still short, and the money I want to earn is limited.

Now hearing that he offered such a large amount, I can't believe that she is not moved.

However, the situation Zou Ping imagined did not happen. Xiao Jinyue just gave him a surprised look, and then refused without hesitation, "Sorry, I don't plan to sell the formula."

Zou Ping was raising his chin slightly, waiting for her to show a surprised expression, but what he heard was rejection, the complacency on his face dissipated immediately, and his face sank visibly.

Xiao Jinyue did not expect that Zou Xueman's second uncle came to see him because he wanted to buy the sugar making formula in her hands.

I don't know where he got the confidence to think that he would sell the recipe to him as soon as he opened his mouth.

At first glance, the price of 500 taels for each candy formula seems to be a lot, but she is not a fool, she does not want to do a good independent business, but sells the formula to competitors.

Such a sum of money, she has not seen in her eyes, even if she is trapped in the Zhen Guogong's mansion, she can't expand her business.But just relying on the few kinds of candies in the store, it doesn't take long to earn tens of thousands of dollars.

Apart from these, the reason why her father wanted to work in the household department was to check the accounts of Zou Yuanchang, the left servant of the household department.

In this way, her father and Zou Yuanchang must have a hostile relationship, so how could she hold her father back and sell her formula to Zou Ping, asking him to help Jin Yuanzheng make money.

Zou Ping originally thought that when he offered such a high price, this girl Xiao would be overjoyed to sell him the formula, never thought that she would refuse.

With a gloomy face, he said unhappily, "Concubine Shizi, the price of this 500 taels of formula is not low. In the whole of Kyoto, there are not many who can afford this price, but I can assure you that there are not many of them." .

Moreover, if others are interested in your formula, they may not come to your door to discuss with you like I did.You have to know that those profit-heavy businessmen have plenty of ways to steal your formula.

Concubine Shizi, I advise you to think about it carefully, is this the truth? "

Zou Ping thought that the imperial concubine should have changed his mind if he used both soft and hard words.

Who knows that Xiao Jinyue just doesn't buy his account, "Don't think about it, I can answer you right now—my formula is not for sale."

She is not a little girl who is ignorant of the world, and she will offer the formula with both hands if she threatens a few words.Not to mention that she doesn't know how to sell the formula, but even if she had to sell it, she would not sell it to someone related to Zou Changyuan.

Zou Ping didn't expect that he would say such a thing for his own sake, and the eldest concubine of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion would not give him any face.Although he is white, but as the master behind Jin Yuanzheng and the second master of the household department's Zuo Shilang's residence, no one will give him some face when he goes out.

He has never been humiliated like this before, and he is still a girl.

Being rejected again and again, Zou Ping's heart was already full of anger. If it was normal, he would have left in a hurry.

But thinking that today is different from the past, he couldn't lift his foot no matter what.

Since the opening of Xun Tang Ji, no matter those dignitaries or ordinary people, who need to buy sugar, they basically go to Xun Tang Ji.Even those hawkers went to Tangji to buy goods, which caused the supply of sucrose in their businesses to be in short supply, and now almost no one cares about it.

It would be fine if the sucrose was unsalable, but their firm didn't know what was going on recently, and there were various problems inexplicably, such as the goods that were kept in the warehouse in good condition, either were eaten by a large number of rats, or they were moldy and smelly.

Even when the second steward went out to buy goods, he was caught by a sudden heavy rain on the way, and the dozens of carts of various silks and satins covered with tarpaulins also received a lot of rainwater, completely destroying that batch of cloth.

However, his eldest brother urgently needs a large amount of money recently, but the income of the commercial bank has shrunk greatly, and he simply cannot afford the amount his brother needs.

He told his brother all about the difficulties of the business, and wanted him to give him some time. After the business resumed normal operation and the funds returned, he would give him the silver, or ask him to ask for less money.

But his good brother didn't listen at all, saying that the business bank was entrusted to him to take care of, and when he needed money, he had to hand it over to him on time and according to the amount, otherwise he would take back his right to manage the business bank and hand it over to the third brother. reason.

His aunt was even more extreme, suspecting that he was responsible for the inexplicable things that happened in the commercial bank, and the purpose was to take the opportunity to collect the profits of the commercial bank into his own pocket.

However, he is used to spending money lavishly, and likes to block a few things when he has nothing to do, and even visits brothels from time to time.As a result, the money in his hands was simply not enough to spend. As time passed, he set his sights on the income of the commercial bank.

Misappropriation of money from the commercial bank has become the norm. Although he dragged the accountant into the water and made him make fake accounts, it is hard to guarantee that his brother and mother will not notice.

In addition, the third brother and the people in the clan have long been dissatisfied with his monopoly of the management of the firm, wishing to keep an eye on his mistakes all the time, and want to kick him out of the firm.

In order to keep the rights in his hands, he had no choice but to piece things together, sold most of the company's inventory at a low price, and even sold a farm and a shop that he usually secretly bought without telling the mansion. , This was enough to gather the large sum of money that my brother-in-law asked for.

His wife even had a fight with him about it.

Now he has no money in his hands, and the capital turnover of the commercial bank is also very difficult.If he doesn't think about some ways to get money, the next time his brother asks him for money, he can't get it out, so he can only hand over the management rights of the firm.

He is used to the identity of Jinyuan Zhengdong's family who is flattered by everyone, if he is taken back the management right of the firm, who will take him as a concubine second master in his eyes?

Besides, he was used to living a life of spending money like water, and letting him live a life of poverty and nothingness would be more uncomfortable than killing him.

On this trip, he wanted to buy the formula from Duke Zhen's concubine no matter what he said.As far as he knew, the candies produced by Xuntangji were the only ones in the entire Yuankang Dynasty.

If he bought the formula and opened sugar shops all over the Yuankang Dynasty, there would be a steady stream of money.At that time, even if his aunt and elder brother want to take back the management rights of the firm in his hands, he will not agree.

These thoughts flashed through his mind one by one, and the anger in his heart had to be suppressed, and he said to Xiao Jinyue again, "Concubine Shizi, I sincerely want to buy your formula, if the price is not satisfactory, we can still discuss it.

Also, if you sell the recipe to me, you can open your Tangtangji.I have taken the formula, and I will open a store outside of Kyoto, and I will never compete with you for business. "

 The third watch is here!
  Sincerely ask for a wave of tickets, any ticket will do...
