These days, Ning Changrong was so busy going out early and returning home late, that he didn't have time to talk to the peddler about chilblain ointment. Today was a good day, so he called it a day.Ning Changrong finally found time to find a shopkeeper.

After convincing the peddler to come to his house to look at the goods, the peddler was a little hesitant. All he sold were small items worth a penny and a penny. He still has to go a little farther. If distance is included, he can sell it for about four pennies, otherwise his hard work will be in vain.

Ning Changrong gave the peddler a bottle and asked him to open it and try it himself, but the peddler hesitated, still not making up his mind.

In the end, I still wanted to make more money, so I took ten to test the waters.

As soon as Ning Changrong got home, he took the peddler to talk about business. Before he had time to explain the situation to his family, the family had been waiting for him to explain why he came back so early today.

The explanation to Ning's family was that they met a big customer today, and they made him a round all at once, so they went home early.

After returning to Wang Xiujuan's room, he took out the ten taels of silver.

After Ning Changrong explained, the two of them understood,
Ning Qingxi was a little happy, "Then this is really a windfall. It would be great if there are more families like this."

"What good thing do you want? Although the shopkeeper Feng only gave a low price, he gave money anyway. If you meet other errands, it's two different things. Serve it up, what can you do?"

"Can I still not know, Dad? Don't I think about it? Fortunately, we are not from here, and we have more knowledge in our minds, otherwise the money would be too difficult to earn."

Wang Xiujuan said, "Evergreen, we consider these ten taels of silver our own, and don't mix them with the public money."

They helped the little cake, so the money will be distributed to the Ning family after it is sold out.This prescription is their own.

Ning Changrong nodded. He didn't tell the seller about Fangzi from the beginning, and that was his idea.

The two looked at Ning Qingxi in unison, afraid that she would feel that her family was going too far.

"What are you looking at me for? Isn't this good? It should be like this."

Wasn't she just embarrassed to eat alone on the first day, why did she become such an image in the eyes of her father and grandmother?She could tell the difference between her own family and Ning's family, and they didn't take advantage of others. The money from this prescription should really be kept by their family.

……

At the gate of the city, Ning Changrong had to pay five Wen for his goods. He guessed that the guard might have seen him getting along with the county magistrate yesterday, so he was more polite to him, and only charged him three Wen. Ask him about his relationship with the county lieutenant's steward.

Ning Changrong pulled up the tiger skin as a banner, and didn't say anything clearly. He made up some specious words, and let the man guess for himself.

The guard saw Feng Steward, the County Wei's family, waiting for people at the gate of the city several times, and he even went up to lick his face and greeted him several times, but they ignored him.Unexpectedly, it was Ning Changrong, a mud-legged man from the countryside, who was waiting.

It didn't look like he offended the steward, and Ning Changrong didn't talk about the relationship between the two. The guard soldiers were not sure of Ning Changrong's identity for a while, so they were more polite to him.

He knew that Ning Changrong was here to sell small cakes, and he even took a few, which were delicious, but he would never have thought that Butler Feng would wait for someone specially for the small cakes, so he couldn't guess the relationship between the two.

Ning Changrong had just finished chatting with the guards when he was stopped at the gate of the city.

The other party introduced himself as the shopkeeper of a pastry shop.

He has heard of Sifangzhai, it seems to be a relatively famous pastry shop in the county.

The steward looked at Ning Changrong being treated politely by the guards, and thought he had something to do with these people. Although the guard was just a big soldier, the steward was also a little surprised. Soldiers involved?It seems that the big soldier is quite polite to him, so does this person have anything to do with him?The originally arrogant attitude restrained.

He politely invited Ning Changrong to a nearby inn to sit down and talk about things.

When Ning Changrong heard him introduce him as the manager of the pastry shop, he guessed that this person should be here to buy recipes.Naturally, he would not refuse the invitation of the visitor.

"I don't know what the manager is doing?"

The steward looked Ning Changrong up and down, he really missed his mark, he had read a few books, otherwise he wouldn't be talking like that.

"The little cake belongs to your family?"

"Exactly."

"You also know that I am the shopkeeper of Sifangzhai. I am here this time to buy prescriptions from you."

Ning Changrong didn't expect this person to be so straightforward. He took a sip of tea, put down the cup and said, "The recipe can be sold, but how much are you going to sell?"

Before the other party was about to speak, Ning Changrong said again:

"Don't worry, I'll do the math for you first. I can sell two or three hundred of these little cakes a day, which means that my daily income is between two and three taels of silver." time, excluding the cost of labor, I can earn about two taels of silver per day on average."

"Have you thought about how much you plan to pay for my prescription? As long as you ask me, I will never bargain. If it is suitable, we will hand it over on the spot. If it is not suitable, we will pretend that we have never seen it this time."

"Presumably there are not a few pastry shops in the county who are interested in my recipe."

After speaking, Ning Changrong took out a piece of paper from his pocket and slapped it on the table.

The momentum of offense and defense is also different.

Sifangzhai's shopkeeper sees what he doesn't understand?The other party obviously came here on purpose, and it was already planned that someone would come to him to buy a recipe for pastries.

Ning Changrong's long series of calculations really made him a little confused. The 50 taels that he had originally asked were also choked back, and he planned to take 40 taels before seeing him chatting with the guards.

It seems that it is not easy to fool, the other party is obviously not that shallow.

The shopkeeper of Sifangzhai sat upright with a serious expression, "Since you can say it so clearly, I think you have your own price in your heart. Your pastry sells very well. I don't deny it. You said that you can sell two or three taels of silver a day." , that’s because it’s still unknown whether there will be such a sales volume on the first day of the year, Taixi County is a small place after all, and there are only a few people who can afford it.”

Ning Changrong's expression didn't change at all, and he signaled the shopkeeper to continue talking, and what he said was indeed correct.

The shopkeeper of Sifangzhai tentatively reported a number, "60 taels, what do you think?"

Seeing that Ning Changrong took back the prescription and got up and wanted to leave, the shopkeeper of Sifangzhai hurriedly increased the price: "90 taels!"

Ning Changrong paused, then continued to raise his feet.

"100 taels! No more, this is the final reserve price!"

Ning Changrong didn't even look back, he walked to the stairs and prepared to go downstairs to sell his pastries.Waiting for the next good person.

"150 taels! This is really the final reserve price! If you still don't agree, you can leave."

Ning Changrong turned around and sat back in his seat with a smile on his face, "Deal. But I have one request, I will continue to do this business after Fangzi is sold to you."

The shopkeeper of Sifangzhai didn't expect Ning Changrong to be so difficult, so he thought for a while, "Yes, but you can only sell it in Taixing County. And Fangzi can't be sold to others!"

Sell ​​it elsewhere?Ning Changrong couldn't sell it even if he wanted to, so that's okay.

Let Sifangzhai exclusively sell the small cakes, that's fine. He won't lose 150 taels, and it would be too much to increase the price.

Business is business, so Ning Changrong didn't tell him that he could add milk.This person is dishonest at first glance. If he really doesn't understand anything, he will definitely be deceived.
