Chapter 23: Buying the Recipe

Listening to Qiao Sheng finish the introduction.

Li Dajin smiled and greeted Qiao Sheng and them: "You all good…"

"Big Brother Jin, hello."

"Uncle Jin, hello."

Qiao Sheng and them also greeted him.

"Check out."

A young man's voice came from aside.

Li Dajin had Li Dayin chat with Qiao Sheng first.

He went to settle the bill.

Li Dajin and them, to save money, settled the bill themselves, without hiring a shopkeeper.

Outside is not a place to discuss serious matters.

Li Dayin then invited Qiao Sheng and them to talk in the adjacent room.

Sit down.

Li Dayin got straight to the point: "Qiao Sheng's younger sister, I and my elder brother followed your instructions and made those pills you mentioned; they turned out decent, and the customers who tried them said they were okay. We want to buy your recipe, and also buy Yanghuai Flower from you; we don't know how you sell it?"

Yanghuai Flower can be picked anywhere.

But he said they buy it here.

Also want to buy that recipe.

It shows they are decent people.

Qiao Sheng said: "Yanghuai Flower actually can be picked everywhere; if you want to buy from me, I'll charge one cash per jin. As for the recipe, I don't know the price; how about you make an offer?"

Li Dayin had Qiao Sheng wait a moment, then he went to find Li Dajin.

Less than half an hour later, Li Dajin and Li Dayin walked in from outside.

Li Dajin spoke frankly: "Qiao Sheng's younger sister, I'll tell you straight: our shop is a small business; we might not be able to give you a good price for the recipe. If you sell it to us, we can offer at most two hundred cash."

"Good, deal!"

Qiao Sheng agreed.

The reason she agreed.

First, the Li Dayin brothers are decent people.

Second, the recipe itself isn't complicated.

Third, she is currently short of money.

Fourth, besides them, no one else wants her Yanghuai Flower.

Fifth, Yanghuai Flower is seasonal; after this season it's gone; to her, this price is not bad.

Qiao Sheng then asked: "I still have a few recipes related to Yanghuai Flower; do you want them?"

"Want."

Li Dayin replied.

This time, they signed a document.

Only then did Qiao Sheng teach them to make Yanghuai Flower wheat rice, Yanghuai Flower buns, Yanghuai Flower steamed fish, Yanghuai Flower dumplings.

Yanghuai Flower scrambled eggs and Yanghuai Flower mixed tofu, Qiao Sheng didn't charge money, directly taught.

Seeing Qiao Sheng so straightforward, the Li Dayin brothers, when giving money, besides giving her the deserved one tael of silver and five cash, also packed ten steamed buns for her.

Qiao Sheng accepted without hesitation.

Li Dayin also gave her the unfinished steamed buns and pancakes they had earlier.

When seeing Qiao Sheng and them off.

Li Dayin said to Qiao Sheng: "Qiao Sheng's younger sister, we're not sure how much Yanghuai Flower we'll need; please bring about the same amount tomorrow as today."

"Good!"

Qiao Sheng agreed.

They hadn't walked far.

Qiao Sheng took Xiao Shitou's hand and said: "Xiao Shitou, come on, Mom will take you to buy new clothes."

Buying clothes will surely cost a lot of money.

Xiao Shitou looked up and said: "Mom, my clothes are still wearable, no need to buy…"

"Your clothes are all too small; besides, you only have two sets of clothes for this season, which isn't enough. Alright, listen to Mom."

As Qiao Sheng walked, she suddenly thought of the woman who bought their pheasants earlier; she recalled and, taking Xiao Shitou, headed toward Changyuan Street.

She still remembered that woman.

But that woman didn't remember them.

Seeing Qiao Sheng and them walk in from outside, the woman smiled and greeted them: "Sister, what do you want to buy? Don't look down on my small shop; we have everything."
