Xia Xinghe came out, Xia Qiyue handed the carriage to his brother and then went to the west wing.
I saw that in the west wing of the room with peanut shells all over the floor, sitting at the table where peanuts were peeled, there was a man in a white brocade dress with a crescent moon. The man looked young, and Xia Qiyue looked familiar at first glance. He looked carefully
After a while, I finally remembered.
It turned out to be him, the sick beauty he met in Liulin County. How did he find her courtyard? No, he came to buy candy, so he ate his own candy and found it.
Although Xia Qiyue recognized this person, she pretended not to know him and went up to talk to him, "Master, the candies have been sold out today. It is not practical to make them for you alone. Why don't you come over later?"
"
Pei Sanshao raised his eyes and glanced at Xia Qiyue, lazily lowered his head and played with the folding fan in his hand, and said a word in an understatement.
"Do I have to buy it today?"
Seeing this, Xia Qiyue shook his head, "It's useless for the young master to embarrass us. Making this candy is troublesome and requires a lot of processes. It's not that we don't sell it, but it's because we can't make it! Please don't embarrass me and other little people!"
She originally wanted to say I am a small person, but something didn't sound right, so she changed it to "I am a small person".
What Pei Sanshao heard was words of evasion, and he didn't take it seriously and held out two fingers.
"I'll give you double the price! Do it for me now!"
Xia Qiyue shook her head again, and decisively refused in the face of everyone's worried eyes, "It's not about the money! It's really impossible to do it!"
So Pei Sanshao was a little dissatisfied. How many days had he searched day and night to buy this candy that he had eaten once at his master's house? He finally found it, but he still had to wait for two days.
Can't wait.
He went to Yunlu Mountain Academy in the capital to study. Fortunately, the Pei family had a great career and had some friendship with his master. The master invited him to his home for dinner from time to time. The master had a daughter about the same age as him who liked him very much and tried her best to treat him every time.
There was no way to please him. One time he went to the Master's house for dinner, and the Master's daughter brought him halva to eat.
He fell in love with it as soon as he ate it, but he had no interest in the master's daughter, so to avoid misunderstanding, he didn't ask where the candy came from, so he could only check it out himself secretly.
"Three times!" Pei Sanshao increased the price again.
Xia Qiyue said nothing and only looked at Pei Sanshao. This man really loved to eat so much that he was willing to pay for food.
In the past, he would buy a steamed bun for twenty taels of silver without blinking an eye. Now, he can pay two or three times the price for crispy candy. He is really a rich foodie.
"Four times?" Pei San saw that she was silent and added another price.
Xia Qiyue shook her head and refused. It wasn't that she didn't want to make money because she had money, but she just didn't want to make an exception and make people think that her candies were easy to make, thereby lowering the price of the candies.
"How on earth can I eat it today?" Pei San saw Xia Qiyue being indifferent, and finally got angry, shouted, and stood up.
"Master, please come back the day after tomorrow!" Xia Qiyue said the same thing.
But before Mr. Pei could run away again, a small hand stretched out, holding two nougats in his hand.
Third Young Master Pei and Xia Qiyue went to look at it at the same time and saw Ke'er coming in holding two nougat candies at some point and handing the candies to Third Young Master Pei.
Everyone looked over, but Ke'er didn't have any stage fright at all, and said sweetly, "Pretty brother, Ke'er, would you like to treat you to some candy?"
Pei Sanshao was stunned for a second...and was immediately attracted by the cuteness of the little girl in front of him.
He reached out and took it politely, then touched Xiao Ke'er's head, "My little sister is so cute!"
Pei Si, who was following behind, widened his eyes and lowered his head in shame. Who is this young master? He actually wants to snatch the candy from such a cute little girl.
"Beautiful brother, then you can eat two candies from Kerr first. When my mother makes the candies the day after tomorrow, you can come and buy more! But come early or you won't be able to buy them!"
Ke'er's sweet and waxy voice was so healing that even the furious Pei Sanshao suppressed his anger and was pulled out of the west wing by Ke'er.
After coming out, I was blown away by the cold wind and I came back to my senses. I turned around quickly and saw that Xia Qiyue had already followed me out.
"How about we talk about business!" Pei Sanshao said in a questioning tone.
"No!" Xia Qiyue replied directly, "I don't sell the formula!"
Although she knew that the person in front of her must be rich and powerful, she just didn't want to give in.
Pei Sanshao waved his hand, "I don't buy the formula either! How about we cooperate! You provide the formula, I provide the money, and we jointly run the candy business! Isn't it better than you just sitting in this small yard? I can help you sell your candy to the whole country.
All over the place! When the time comes, the profit will not be comparable to what you have now!"
Xia Qiyue hesitated. She needed such a well-established person to support her now, otherwise she would be afraid that something might happen to her business. However, now was not the time to agree.
Firstly, I don’t know the character of the rich young man in front of me, and secondly, I don’t know how strong his background is.
So, Xia Qiyue shook her head again, "That's good. I don't have any big ambitions. I'm just a rich man! If you want to buy candy, you can come early the day after tomorrow! Please!"
Make a gesture of seeing off guests and let Pei Sanshao leave.
Third Young Master Pei's face was a bit astonished. When Third Young Master Pei asked for cooperation, someone actually refused?
But then he thought, the other party didn't know his identity yet, so he would definitely refuse. So, facing Xia Qiyue seeing off the guests, he did not leave, but waved his hand and started to introduce himself.
"You must not know my identity that's why you refuse. It's okay. I'll tell you my identity now!"
"Young Master..." Pei Si hurriedly stopped him.
"No problem!" Pei Sanshao waved his hand and turned to look at Xia Qiyue, "Listen up! I am the third son of the Pei family in Anyang Prefecture!"
Xia Qiyue nodded, "Oh!"
"Oh? Do you know the Pei family of Anyang Prefecture?"
Third Young Master Pei was once again shocked that someone would actually listen to Anyang Mansion without changing his expression.
"I don't know! Is it very powerful?" Xia Qiyue shook his head.
Pei Si was worried, "How come you don't know anything? Our young master is the third son of the Pei family, the richest man in Anyang. The Pei family is the richest man in Anyang! There is also an aunt who is a noble in the palace! Huangshang, you know
What is it?"
Xia Qiyue was inspired by Pei Si's explanation. The backstage was so tough that she liked it, and the other party proposed it on his own initiative.
"I know!" She nodded pretending to be calm, "But I still have no willingness to cooperate for the time being. If there is a chance, we can talk again in the future!"
Pei Sanshao looked at Xia Qiyue in disbelief. After a while, he threw away his sleeves and left behind, "Rotten wood cannot be carved!"
"Sister, Mr. Pei seems to be very powerful. Why don't you cooperate? Then no one will dare to worry about our candies anymore?"
He walked over and asked in a low voice.
"Take your time. Although he says he is powerful, I don't see how powerful he is. I have to confirm it myself before I can rest assured!"
