"My boss, tell me the conditions!" Zhang Xiaoying did not take the initiative.
"If I buy your cookbook, you must promise not to sell it to anyone else, and your son, including yours, cannot work as a cook in another restaurant. Can you agree to this?"
"I can't even make it in my own house after selling it to you?"
"Of course. What I mean is that we can't pass it on to others. Besides, we are in business. When I buy recipes, I have to create a document so that both parties can guarantee it, right? In case your son one day says he stole it.
Your recipe will be taken to court."
Zhang Xiaoying: "..."
It has to be said that there are many minds in doing business.
But Zhang Xiaoying agreed.
She had no intention of letting Xu Changsheng and the others learn these home-cooked dishes.
To be honest, it won't take long for an experienced cook to figure out how to cook it after eating it.
What Fengyue Restaurant wants is a sign to let everyone know that these dishes are from Fengyue Restaurant, and Fengyue Restaurant’s food is the most authentic!
Only by maintaining reputation, reputation and quality can time-honored brands continue to operate for a long time.
"Sister-in-law, I'm glad. I'm not bothered either. What do you think of the price?" The owner held out three fingers.
"You want to take away this recipe book for thirty taels?" Zhang Xiaoying's forehead twitched, isn't this too dark?
Boss: "...see what you said, sister-in-law, am I the kind of black-hearted person? It's thirty, two, but it's not a recipe, but a dish. I counted, there are twenty-three dishes in total.
How about your seven hundred taels of silver?"
"Deal!" Zhang Xiaoying agreed without thinking.
She originally thought she could sell it for one or two hundred taels at most, but she didn't expect the owner to be so generous!
Zhang Xiaoying didn't bargain. The owner was stunned for a moment. He subconsciously looked at the menu again and couldn't help but wonder if Zhang Xiaoying was a liar?
Because his eyes were so straightforward, Zhang Xiaoying could see his thoughts at a glance, leaving Zhang Xiaoying speechless.
"Why don't you give me one thousand taels, boss?" she said angrily.
The boss chuckled, "That's not possible, we have agreed upon it. Sister-in-law, I don't like to care about things, but I am more serious than anyone else when it comes to business. If one day, I find that you sell the recipes to other people,
I will report it to the official."
"But what if your people are leaked?" Zhang Xiaoying asked, "You can't throw all the blame on my head."
"That has nothing to do with you, only those with evidence will count. Sister-in-law of the Xu family, how about we find a witness? I know you don't believe me, so let's go to Yinghua Academy to find a wife!"
"The master of Yinghua Academy is willing to be a merchant's witness?"
"As human beings, they have to wear clothes, eat, and bear witness. It's not murder or arson. Why can't they do it? The master of Yinghua Academy is not so pedantic!"
This is called Zhang Xiaoying’s surprise.
Among scholars, farmers, and merchants, merchants are the lowest class. Usually scholars disdain to associate with businessmen, because they feel that they smell like copper and undermine the nobility of scholars...
But at the moment, it seems that this is not necessarily the case, and I don’t know if it is only the case of Yinghua Academy, or if most scholars in the world are like this?
"So on weekdays, do you all go to Yinghua Academy to find the Master to be a witness?" Zhang Xiaoying was curious.
"It depends on what you are doing. You can't bother the master with trivial matters, right? It's important after all, and it doesn't involve violating court regulations. For example, if you write a document as a witness, the master usually won't refuse."
"But the scholars in our town don't want to associate with businessmen."
"There are not many scholars like this, but who is Master Zhou Shan? He said that it is understandable that the master should do his duty well and not delay teaching and educating people. He should do other things to earn some money for the family. He will not do it either.
Limit Master."
"Chang Zhou Shan is really different."
"That's natural. Mr. Zhou Shanzhang is dedicated to serving the country and the people, and his vision is naturally different from ordinary people. Let's go to Yinghua Academy while it's still early. Let's get the documents signed as soon as possible. Everyone can rest assured.
.Sister-in-law, I know you are hiding something else in this recipe."
Zhang Xiaoying smiled and acknowledged it.
"Hahaha, it's normal. After all, it's the first time you and I meet. It's normal for us to be wary of each other. But after signing the document, my sister-in-law can no longer hide her."
"nature."
"Let's go, let's go."
The owner got up first and ordered people to prepare the carriage.
Zhang Xiaoying walked to the front door, then turned back and called Mrs. Lin and Xu Wencong.
"Let's go to Yinghua College."
Xu Wencong should be asked to see what a real school is like.
Xu Wencong looked at Zhang Xiaoying suddenly, "Mom, do you want me to go to Yinghua Academy to study?"
Zhang Xiaoying smiled but said, "Do you want to go?"
Xu Wencong suddenly felt something was wrong and subconsciously closed his mouth.
"Yinghua College does not accept waste. If you want to study in Yinghua College, then prove to Yinghua College that you have the qualifications to go there. Otherwise, never think about who will help you get in, because your life path is not that of others.
Help you go!"
These words were a bit heavy for Xu Wencong. He lowered his head in tears, but did not dare to make a sound.
Lin hugged Xu Wencong and tried his best to reduce his sense of presence.
Zhang Xiaoying gently tapped Xu Wencong's head, "Why are you crying? Is crying useful? Do you want to admit that you are a waste? Why did you bother to go to the school in the town to study?"
"Mom, are you getting more and more cruel to me? I just asked you a question, and you scolded me." Xu Wencong choked with grievance, "You used to praise me as the smartest, but now I have become a waste..."
"What I'm saying is that Yinghua Academy doesn't want waste, so you just follow suit. Do you think you're waste too?"
"I don't……"
"Then shut up and work hard on your own if you want to study. Let me tell you, whoever is good in the family will be allowed to study in the future. For example, if your sister... can't go to school, I will also hire a husband to teach her!"
"what about me?"
"If you don't learn well, you will have to work in the fields in the future, otherwise you will be sold out without knowing what happened."
"I do not want……"
Xu Wencong burst into tears.
Zhang Xiaoying narrowed her eyes slightly, raised her hand and moved her wrist.
Xu Wencong immediately choked with fright and stopped crying.
Zhang Xiaoying snorted coldly, and Xu Wencong hurriedly crawled into Lin's arms, not daring to raise his head to look at Zhang Xiaoying again.
When he arrived at Yinghua Academy, Xu Wencong was completely stunned.
Every tree and plant in Yinghua Academy is more beautiful than Rich Man Li's house, and even bigger than Rich Man Li's house.
The students were sitting upright in the school, and the Master was carefully explaining the content of the articles in the book. All of this was completely opposite to the messy schools in the town.
Xu Wencong was stunned. If he studied here, he would not be looked down upon and bullied by his classmates because of his shabby clothes, right? After all, everyone wears the same clothes, but the colors in each school are different...
