Shopkeeper Cheng ate heartily. Because the bowl was small, he hadn’t had enough yet!
However, he knew that Gu Nian had only made so much for him to taste. Therefore, he was embarrassed to ask her to make more.
“I wonder what ingredients are used to make these three dishes?” After wiping his mouth, shopkeeper Cheng began to talk about serious business.
“Old Cheng, these three dishes all have pig offal, which includes the large intestine, small intestine, and pig’s tripe. The intestines must have been washed clean. On such a cold day, my family’s two young ladies went to the river to wash them with my eldest brother and eldest sister-in-law’s two young ladies. It doesn’t taste as good as I imagined, does it?” Cai Xiaolian said.
Gu Nian was very impressed with this couple who had worked together to make a living. In the time it took for her to cook, she had changed from shopkeeper Cheng to old Cheng.
“Is there a trick to this cleaning?” Shopkeeper Cheng’s shrewd eyes glowed.
“That’s for sure! So, what price did old Cheng intend to offer for these three dishes? We’re so familiar with each other, so the price is not important. Besides the intestines and stomach, the heart, liver, spleen, lung, and kidney can all be made into delicious food.” Cai Xiaolian said with a smile.
Shopkeeper Cheng’s mouth twitched. You’ve already said so, and the price isn’t important?
If I don’t give you a satisfactory price, are you going to tell me how to cook the heart, liver, spleen, lung, and kidney?
“Oh, that’s right. Old Cheng, I have an even more perfect method of cooperation. Of course, I’m just not sure if you can make the decision?” Cai Xiaolian didn’t give shopkeeper Cheng a chance to state his price and continued.
Gu Xin’s eyes brightened. She’s here, her mother is going to show her tricks to making big money. She must learn it well!
“Oh? Sister-in-law, tell me, I have to listen to it to know if I can make the decision.” Shopkeeper Cheng asked, taking back the price that was on the tip of his tongue.
“Cooperation! It’s not just buying and selling recipes or recipes, but a direct cooperation to let us split the profits of the restaurant. This way, any new dish that my niannian makes will be given to the restaurant as soon as possible. Of course, we won’t ask for much profit. I just want a long-term stable income. After all, I have a man at home who needs to study and prepare the dowry for my two daughters. I have to live!” Cai Xiaolian’s face showed that life was difficult.
After Cai Xiaolian finished speaking, shopkeeper Cheng fell into deep thought.
Gu Xin stared at shopkeeper Cheng nervously. She understood what her mother meant. If shopkeeper Cheng agreed, their family would have a long-term income. But, could she agree to this? She felt that it was impossible, but she believed in her mother. He felt extremely conflicted.
However, Gu Nian was thinking that her mother was probably the one who had received the script for transmigration and farming. After transmigrating, she became a married woman and a husband. Although she was older, her potential in literature and martial arts was limitless. Buying recipes, working with a restaurant, was he going to open a Rouge shop next? Drawing flowers and opening an embroidery workshop? A man’s career will rise and he will die?
Gu shouxin thought, my mother is really daring! Very good, I like women who dare to think and do!
“Split the profits? This, second brother Gu, sister-in-law, I really can’t make the decision. However, you can tell me the specific method of cooperation. For example, how much profit you want, whether it can guarantee the restaurant’s business, how many new dishes can you make every month, and whether the new dishes can be produced in a constant stream.” After pondering for a long time, shopkeeper Cheng finally opened his mouth and asked a few questions.
Gu Xin’s big eyes immediately turned to her mother as she waited for her mother’s reply.
