Chapter XXV. Cooperation

The woman in brocade asked for a cage of xiaolongbao, dipped in vinegar, and ate with relish, when she heard Hu Xiaopan's words, she was stunned, and immediately her expression became very respectful, and she got up and saluted: "Could it be that he is a 'martial arts doctor' Hu Xiaopan Hu's senior?"

"Yes, it's the old body. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info" Hu Xiaopan immediately dissipated the ruffian aura in her body and responded coldly. "My mother has been sick for more than ten years, and she has invited countless famous doctors, but she has not improved. In the next long admiration of the predecessors, knowing that the predecessors have been famous in the apricot forest world for a long time, these years in the next has been looking for the seniors, but unfortunately the whereabouts of the predecessors are uncertain, has not been able to do so, today I am fortunate to see the dignity of the face, but also hope that the predecessors ......"

"Okay, okay, I know, bring your mother here, I'll help her see it, I'll teach my brother here in the future, don't leave!"

Ye Mei heard that this guy's medical skills are not bad, and there is no harm in keeping Baili, so she hurriedly instructed Chunling: "Chunling, clean up a house for senior Hu in the backyard, boil the bath water, and let the senior bathe and change clothes." ”

"Hmm...... Let's cage xiaolongbao again, it smells good. Hu Xiao looked forward to the request of inch by inch. "You still eat? After eating so many crabs and just finishing a dish, you're not afraid to die. Baili Zimo rolled his eyes.

Hu Xiaopan didn't care about the disrespect in her words, and said happily: "I can finish eating two more cages, but I have to save some stomach, didn't I say that there was still something delicious at night?"

"Senior, my mother is weak, I'm afraid she can't withstand such a long bump, and I ask my predecessor to move!" The woman saluted again and stopped Hu Xiaopan, who was about to enter the inner courtyard.

Hu Xiaopan frowned, a little unhappy: "It's so troublesome, didn't you see that I just accepted an apprentice, where do I have time!" The woman had already heard that this person had a strange temper and was moody, but now she was a little unhappy, and she was so anxious that she came down when she was sweating.

Baili Zimo couldn't stand it anymore, snorted, and said: "People say that doctors are parents, how can you be a doctor, you don't have any compassion at all, I think your ability is bluffing, you must be afraid that you can't see the old lady's illness and expose your truth, so you don't dare to help this lady's mother see a doctor." ”

Hu Xiaopan's eyes widened, and he was about to get angry, but after thinking about it, he held back: "You kid don't provoke me with words, I'm not fooled." Well, where are you, I'll write a letter and ask my genius apprentice who has already been a teacher to take a look. ”

The woman was overjoyed and stepped forward to reply: "In Xiajiang Zitong, the family lives in Tianyang City, and he is the head of the Tianyang Jiang family. "Oh, it turned out to be one of the eight major merchants, the Jiang family, who monopolized the national food supply!" Baili Zimo couldn't say everything about the eight major merchants, but he still knew a little bit about it.

Jiang Zitong saw that Baili Zimo could speak in front of Hu Xiaopan, so he didn't dare to hold it up, so he nodded and responded: "Exactly." Hu Xiaopan shook her torn sleeves and said impatiently: "I know, the grain merchant official, go home and wait, the apprentice will come to the door soon." As he spoke, ignoring Jiang Zitong's salute, he turned around and went into the backyard.

Jiang Zitong breathed a sigh of relief, remembering the business that had just been half discussed, and smiled at Ye Mei: "Thanks to Ling Ai, I said a few kind words in front of Senior Hu...... Boss Ye, look at the business I talked to you about just now......" (although Zi Mo said that she was working, Ye Mei's concern for Zi Mo made people outside mistakenly think that Zi Mo recognized her mother)

Ye Mei smiled and said, "Boss Jiang, please sit down and discuss slowly." To tell you the truth, this vinegar is brewed repeatedly by the little girl, so you have to negotiate with the little girl about this specific brewing recipe, and I don't know very well. ”

When Baili Zimo heard it, he immediately understood what was going on, it turned out that Jiang Zitong had taken a fancy to their family's vinegar-making technology. Originally, this vinegar-making technology, Baili Zimo didn't plan to hide it privately, and he didn't have the strength to promote it throughout the country.

Since the Jiang family, one of the eight major businesses, is interested, it is not bad to use this vinegar-making recipe to make a small fortune. Just thinking about it, Jiang Zitong said to her with a pleasant face: "Little boss, I heard that you also created this bun, well, it tastes very good." This xiaolongbao is dipped in vinegar, which has a unique flavor...... Can you sell the recipe for this vinegar to Zaixia?"

Baili Zimo didn't answer immediately, but just looked left and right and said to him: "This vinegar can not only be used as a dipping sauce, but also often used in slippery vegetables, cold dishes, and vinegar as the main seasoning for cooking." For example, scallion vinegar chicken, vinegar celery, vinegar fish, etc. You can also make sweet and sour dishes, and I believe that in the near future, vinegar will be widely used and become a must-have in people's diet and life. It can also promote digestion, enhance food, and have antiseptic and sterilization effects. Vinegar fumigation has a killing effect on the typhoid virus. ”

Jiang Zitong listened attentively, and the idea of taking this secret recipe for vinegar was even more firm: "Little boss, you have a price!" Baili Zimo smiled meaningfully, and did not quote the price as she wished. Jiang Zitong couldn't hold his breath, and quoted a price by himself: "One thousand taels, how about it, it's higher than the income of your bun shop for two years, think about it." ”

Baili Zimo still smiled, took a cup of hot tea brought by Qian Xiang, blew it cold, and took a big sip. Jiang Zitong lost her usual composure, thought for a moment, and said, "Two thousand taels, how about this price?"

Baili Zimo didn't answer and changed the topic: "Boss Jiang, I'll prepare a few dishes with vinegar as a seasoning in the evening, you can stay and try it." Jiang Zitong thought about the Lu family, who lived in the same inn as himself, and was also one of the eight major merchants, and his subordinates heard that they were also interested in the secret recipe for making vinegar, but the head of the family had not yet arrived, so he couldn't make up his mind for the time being, but it was said that he had already gone to ask for instructions.

Thinking of this, she gritted her teeth: "Five thousand taels, this is my limit, it can't be higher." Baili Zimo looked at her meaningfully, this glance made Jiang Zitong feel a little chilled, Jiang Zitong has been the head of the family for more than ten years, and her business has spread all over the country, even in front of the royal relatives and relatives, she can cope with it easily, in front of a small girl who is less than four years old, she actually feels nervous, it is really strange.

Baili Zimo whetted her appetite before saying, "My recipe for making vinegar...... It is not for sale. Seeing that Jiang Zitong's face changed and he had a tendency to get angry, he immediately continued: "However, we can cooperate." "Cooperation?" Jiang Zitong suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart and was determined to ask for clarification.

"Yes, it's cooperation, I'll give the way, and your Jiang family will contribute manpower and material resources. Profits, I only need 20% of them ......" "The little boss has a good plan, not a single child is out, and he gets 20% of the profit for nothing." Hmph, are you fools for us?" Jiang Zitong sneered.

"Hehe, Boss Jiang, don't be angry, business is not benevolent. Besides, you're a fool if you don't accept it. Baili Zimo said unhurriedly, "Although I don't have a penny to make a contribution, but I have the most important recipe for making vinegar - manpower and material resources, it is easy, you can have it for two dollars, but manpower and material resources are easy to find, and it is difficult to find a recipe." I dare say that there is no second person in the world who knows the art of making vinegar except me. If Boss Jiang refuses to cooperate, I have no opinion, after all, our family is not short of money to spend, and I am fortunate to have it, and it doesn't matter if I don't have to die. ”

Jiang Zitong hesitated again and again: Although it was divided into two percent of the profits, if vinegar became a must-have condiment for every household as she said, the remaining eighty percent of the profits would still be very considerable. Among the eight major families, the official family has the right to buy and sell grain, but many ordinary people produce and eat their own food, and their wealth is a little weaker than that of other businesses. If there is the blessing of this vinegar, the capital to compete with other businesses will increase a lot.

Just thinking about it, the people who were staring at the Lu family quietly came over to report: The head of the Lu family has entered Ji'an Town. She immediately decided: "It's done, according to yours, the profit is two or eight, let's make a contract first, and then go to the government to notarize and seal it." ”

Baili Zimo's goal was achieved, and she showed a satisfied smile: "Okay! Refreshing! Just do as you say." I won't let you suffer, if there is a chance to cooperate in the future, your Jiang family will have priority. When Jiang Zitong heard this, this Baili Zimo might have other methods, and he thought that he had made the right decision.

She couldn't care about eating steamed buns, so she and Shao Yemei made a contract and stamped their handprints, and when they walked out of the delicious building together, a fast horse stopped in front of the noodle shop. Jiang Zitong greeted with a smile on his face: "Boss Lu, I haven't seen you for a long time, I'm glad to meet you." You're also here to eat steamed buns, the xiaolongbao here is dipped in vinegar, it's really delicious. You have a good taste. ”

Lu Sanniang nodded at her and was about to enter the shop, but Guan Zitong continued: "By the way, I forgot to tell Boss Lu, if you want to eat this vinegar in the future, you must go to our Jiang family to buy it." Boss Ye has signed a contract with Jiang and sold the recipe for vinegar to Zaixia. You're a step too late!"

This Lu Sanniang always relied on the wealth of the Lu family, and when she was in the Chamber of Commerce, she often ridiculed and mocked the Jiang family, and now that she had the opportunity, Jiang Zitong also raised her eyebrows. Lu Sanniang's face stiffened, squeezed out a reluctant smile, and said, "Yes, congratulations." He turned and got on his horse and left.

Jiang Zitong shouted: "Oh, if you want to please, it's better to meet by chance, Boss Lu, I invite you to eat steamed buns, the steamed buns in this delicious building can be called a must......" Looking at the back of Lu Sanniang leaving, Jiang Zitong showed a smile.
