Chapter 31: One-Time Buyout
The car was not full today. Old Zhao waited for a while and realized that no one was walking towards the entrance of the village. Helpless, he could only drive the car towards town.
When they arrived in town, Su Li walked towards the Exquisite Pavilion. Before she reached the door, she saw Yue Yingying standing at the door, looking around as if she was waiting for someone.
"Ms. Su, you're finally here!"
When Yue Yingying saw Su Li, it was like a wolf seeing meat. She wished she could eat her in one bite.
"What's going on?"
Su Li was a little puzzled.
Yue Yingying grabbed Su Li's hand affectionately and said, "Let's go upstairs and talk."
She then turned to the shop assistant beside her and said, "Why are you so blind? Quickly help Ms. Su remove the basket on her shoulder."
"Yes!"
The shop assistant responded and quickly walked to Su Li's side to help her unload the basket on her back.
"Let's check the goods first!" Su Li said.
Yue Yingying smiled and said, "There's no need to check it. I believe in you."
She had never been wrong when it came to judging people. Su Li gave her the feeling that she was someone who would not do such sneaky things.
Although Yue Yingying said that, Su Li still insisted on inspecting the goods. After all, it was easier to inspect the goods in person. If there were any problems in the future, they would not argue about it. She did not want everyone to be unhappy over a small matter.
Yue Yingying said to the shop assistant beside her, "Since Ms. Su has said so, take a look."
The shop assistant counted and confirmed that there was nothing wrong with the items before nodding at Yue Yingying.
"Go up and have some tea. I'll get someone to bring you the money," Yue Yingying said.
Su Li followed Yue Yingying to the second floor. As they walked, she asked, "How are the sales?"
Yue Yingying kept smiling and said, "Business is good! We were sold out two days ago. If you hadn't come today, I would have gone to look for you."
Su Li took a sip of tea. "I'll definitely fulfill my promise."
"Steward Yue, this is the remaining payment."
The accountant sent Su Li's payment over.
"Give it to Ms. Su!" Yue Yingying said.
Su Li took the silver and placed it in her pocket after confirming that there were no problems.
Yue Yingying said, "Ms. Su, you have to provide more goods this time. If I didn't control it last time, I don't think it would be enough to sell for a day."
The Exquisite Pavilion still had several more branches. Now, they were the only ones selling soap and fragrant soap. If Su Li's supply couldn't rise, the other branches wouldn't be able to sell them either.
"I can increase it to a hundred," Su Li said.
Yue Yingying said, "This is far from enough. You have to supply at least 200!"
Su Li shook her head and refused. "A hundred in seven days is already the limit. At the moment, I don't have the ability to produce that many. Moreover, you can sell as many as you want every day. This way, you won't have to worry about not having enough things to sell. At the same time, it can cause everyone to see the phenomenon of this item being rare and expensive. After all, rare things are precious."
Although she also wanted to produce more soap to earn money, she could not do it alone at the moment. Compared to money, her life was more important.
Yue Yingying sighed. "I'm doing this for your own good. I'm taking this opportunity for you to make a killing."
For her own good? Su Li almost laughed out loud.
They were all adults. There were some things she had seen through but would not reveal.
Yue Yingying and Su Li decided on the goods they wanted next time, but this time, Su Li made a request from Yue Yingying.
"Steward Yue, can you come and get the goods yourself?"
She really did not want to come to deliver goods every day. Not to mention the fare for her journey, running like this every day would also delay her work.
Yue Yingying smiled and said, "Sure, but you have to provide 500 items at once. Otherwise, the cost of traveling back and forth will be too much for us!"
500? With her current scale, 500 was impossible!
However, Su Li did not reject her immediately. Instead, she smiled and said, "Alright, you guys can come and collect the goods when I expand the scale."
Yue Yingying patted her hand. "Ms. Su, this opportunity won't come again. While it's selling well now, hurry up and produce more."
Su Li said, "I'll think about it."
"I have a good idea," said Yue Yingying. "Sell the formula to us. That way, you won't have to work so hard, and you can earn a lot of money."
After Su Li sold the soap and fragrant soap to them last time, they had organized many groups of people to start researching what formula it was. After researching for so many days, they had yet to come up with any results.
Su Li's interest was piqued when she heard Yue Yingying's words. "Oh, then what price do you plan to buy my formula for?"
Yue Yingying raised two fingers. "Twenty taels of silver."
Su Li smiled and shook her head. Wasn't she daydreaming if she wanted to buy her formula for 20 taels?
When Yue Yingying saw Su Li shaking her head, she couldn't help but frown. "20 taels is already a very high price. Calculate it yourself. How much is one soap? How much can you earn by selling 100 soaps?"
"How long will it take for you to earn twenty taels? Moreover, there are unstable factors involved. Perhaps no one will buy this thing in two days. If no one buys it, the price will be reduced. I advise you to quickly sell the formula while it's still popular."
Su Li said, "It's not that I don't want to sell the formula, but I want dividends. We'll split the income from selling soap and fragrant soap 30-70. You guys get 70% and I get 30%."
"Impossible!" Yue Yingying's first reaction was to reject her.
A one-time buyout was their biggest concession, but Su Li still dared to ask for a 30% to 70% commission, she was simply dreaming!
Su Li said, "Then we have nothing to talk about!"
"Aren't you going to think about it?"
Yue Yingying did not expect Su Li to be so stubborn.
Su Li asked, "I should be the one asking you that."
The corners of Yue Yingying's mouth froze.
Su Li looked at Yue Yingying and asked, "Do you still want the soap and fragrant soap?"
Yue Yingying adjusted her mentality and said with a smile, "Of course. We can slowly discuss the matter of buying the formula. Regardless of whether it succeeds or not, we have to continue working together."
"I'll get someone to bring you the deposit."
"Okay."
After receiving the deposit, Su Li did not stay any longer. She still had to buy the ingredients to make soap. If she delayed any longer, it would be too late to go back tonight!
After leaving Exquisite Pavilion, Su Li turned around and went to the pork shop to buy lard.
Yue Yingying stood by the window on the second floor and looked at Su Li's departing figure thoughtfully.
"Steward Yue, should we send someone to follow her?"
A maid walked to Yue Yingying's side and asked.
Yue Yingying shook her head. "Forget it, let her be!"
The maidservant continued, "But she has the recipe for soap and fragrant soap. We've studied it for so long but haven't been able to figure it out. If we can buy the recipe from her, won't it be very beneficial to us?"
"Moreover, according to her production speed, when will she be able to expand? This will affect our business very much. We are accepting her formula for her own good. Perhaps she has the same idea herself!"
Yue Yingying touched the jade bracelet on her wrist and fell into deep thought.
"Manager!" The maidservant at the side became anxious when she saw that Yue Yingying did not move.
