We agreed to farm, why do you go to the palace every day?

Chapter 66 Negotiating the Pickle Business

Luo Yu came downstairs and did not check out directly. Instead, he asked, "Boss, do you have any cotton here? I want to make a few quilts for the winter."

The lady boss generously said, "Yes, there is plenty of cotton, but do you want just the cotton, or do you want a ready-made quilt?"

Luo Yu said: "As long as cotton is sold, how do quilts sell?"

The lady boss said, "Cotton is very precious here. Ordinary people often buy some cotton and linen to make quilts. A pound of cotton costs fifty coins, a three-pound quilt costs two hundred and twenty coins, and a five-pound quilt costs three hundred and fifty coins. Miss, take a look at which one you want."

Luo Yu thought that he would have to find someone to do it if he took it back. Social relations and the like were not something that could be put a price on. Although it was a bit expensive, he could definitely afford it now.

She said arrogantly, "Madam, I want two beds that weigh five kilograms, and one bed that weighs three kilograms. They must be made warmer."

The lady boss just thought she was lucky, so she readily agreed and asked, "Miss, are you in a hurry? Do you need me to rush the work?"

Luo Yu shook his head and said, "There's no rush. As long as I can get it before winter, it'll be fine. We also have to build a new house, which will probably take more than a month."

The proprietress understood, and at that moment Mu Feng came down with clothes, so Luo Yu asked the proprietress to settle the bill.

Luo Yu bought a lot here, and the proprietress also gave her a discount and asked her, "Miss, do you have a favorite color?"

Luo Yu was a little confused, but still said honestly: "I like plain colors, cyan, gray, and light pink are also fine. The boss lady asked if this is what you want?"

The proprietress smiled and nodded, "Miss, you have ordered three quilts from me at once. If you don't mind, I will ask someone to make quilt covers for you so you don't have to buy more."

Luo Yu then realized that if you buy a quilt, you must also have sheets and quilt covers, and the same goes for pillows.

If it was just a quilt cover, Luo Yu would ask the boss lady to give it to him. If he wanted sheets and pillowcases, he would have to pay for it himself.

Luo Yu smiled and said, "Madam Boss, since you have arranged for someone to make the quilt cover, can you also make a set of matching sheets and pillowcases for me? They will also be included in the bill."

Mu Feng's two sets of clothes cost a total of 280 wen, three quilts cost 920 wen, and with the sheets, the proprietress charged a total of 1,250 wen.

Luo Yu paid the bill very readily and said that if they could finish making the quilts quickly, they would come earlier to take them away and ask the proprietress to finish it within a month before leaving.

After buying clothes and quilts, Luo Yu crossed out one of the things he was worried about.

Since we want to build a new house, we must go to the village head, buy land and invite people to dinner.

I have to buy some meat and vegetables.

After leaving the cloth shop, Mu Feng took Luo Ci and Luo Yu and walked leisurely to the place where meat was sold.

Arriving at the pork stall, Luo Yu asked about the price. It was so expensive. Fortunately, she had money. Hehe~

We have wild boar meat at home, fried. Buy some fresh ones and eat them together later.

The fat and lean pork was 25 yuan per pound, so Luo Yu bought 10 pounds. Seeing some very good pork bones on the side, Luo Yu asked, "Boss, how much are these pork bones?"

The vendor said, "Miss, there is nothing to eat in these pork bones. If you want them, you can take all these twenty cents with you."

These people really didn't know that bones smelled good. I didn't explain to them. I paid the money and asked the boss to pack it together with ten pounds of meat and put it in the basket on Mu Feng's back.

After walking for a while, Luo Yu looked at Mu Feng and said, "Mu Feng, I just bought some pork bones. Why aren't you surprised at all and why didn't you ask me?"

Mu Feng didn't expect her to ask him, so he said calmly: "You must have your reasons for buying it. I believe you can make delicious food!"

Luo Yu was very happy that he believed in her, but she wondered if he was too blindly trusting of her.

With a smile on her face, Luo Yu liked everything she saw and wanted to buy some food and daily necessities. If Mu Feng's basket was not full and Luo Ci was also holding food and things she liked, she probably would not have been able to stop.

Seeing that she was still not satisfied, Mu Feng reminded her, "Don't we still have to go to the restaurant to find Boss Cai?"

Luo Yucai said, "Yes, I was going to find Boss Cai to ask about the pickle business. How come I forgot about it while shopping?"

Then he and Mu Feng went back. It was not dinner time and there was no one in the restaurant. Boss Cai was checking the bill.

Luo Yu walked in and asked, "Boss Cai, you're finally back. I thought I wouldn't see you today!"

Boss Cai closed the account book, came to Luo Yu and said, "Miss, you are joking. I heard from the clerk that you are in town and we are waiting for you!"

Then he asked Luo Yu to sit down, and Mu Feng also put down the basket.

Boss Cai said, "Miss, my wife is here too. I was originally going to bring her to the village to discuss this with you, but something delayed us."

Luo Yu nodded and said, "This is not a big deal. Auntie, can you come out and discuss it with me? If we can reach an agreement today, that would be the best."

Boss Cai nodded repeatedly and said, "Okay, that's fine. You guys sit for a while. I'll go call her."

After saying this, he asked the waiter to pour some tea and went upstairs to call someone.

After a while, a very beautiful lady came towards them. Luo Yu thought that Boss Cai was really lucky, his wife was so beautiful, no wonder he had to ask her for help when doing things.

Luo Yu stood up and said, "Hello, shopkeeper. I am Luo Yu, my sister is Luo Ci, and my fiancé is Mu Feng."

After listening to their introduction, Boss Cai's wife said, "Hello, my husband told me that you made those pickles, and I really liked them. He said you were only fourteen, and I didn't believe it. I've always wanted to meet you!"

Luo Yu smiled and said, "As long as the shopkeeper likes it, I'm sure Boss Cai has also told you that he wants to discuss business with you today!"

The shopkeeper nodded and said with some embarrassment: "When my husband told me that he wanted to do business with you, I was thinking about how to cooperate with you. I haven't thought of a suitable one. I wonder if you have any good ideas?"

Luo Yu shook his head. Boss Cai kept saying that he wanted to wait for his wife, and he thought they had already thought it through!

Seeing that she hadn't made up her mind, the shopkeeper said hesitantly, "How about we split it 50-50? We'll include the cost of materials, labor, and sales, and split the profit 50-50."

Luo Yu was thinking, and Mu Feng said, "Fifty-fifty, what can you do in the early stages?"

Luo Yu looked at Mu Feng. It was a 50-50 split, but she had a lot to do, including seasoning, raw materials, labor, and shipping. Would she lose money?

The shopkeeper said, "We can bring the materials and pickle jars we need directly. But I thought that since you are in the village, you can help the villagers get some wages, right?"

The shopkeeper is really smart. If he produces a large quantity in the later stage, he can really earn wages for the villagers and encourage them to grow vegetables.

But throughout history, gourmet recipes are very expensive.

Seeing that she was still thinking, Mu Feng spoke first, "40% to 60% of the profit. We'll take 6. After all, if the product sells well, the formula will be the most valuable."
