Cao Yi looked at Liu Defa's "sincere" worry and anxiety, a smile appeared on his face, and said with a smile: "Thank you for the concern of the head of the Liu family, but I am really powerless, my output and manpower are only so much, and I can't cover so many places at the same time...... Liu family master, you said yes, of course, I didn't mean you. ”

"......" Liu Defa looked at Cao Yi, he was angry in his heart but couldn't come out, he didn't hear Cao Yi's words at the moment, just embarrassed with a smile.

After a while, he leaned over again, with a slightly heartache expression, and said: "Master Cao, you see that you now have a lot of opportunities to make money, but you can't get money from those guests' purses, and you waste time in vain. ”

has already talked about this, if Cao Yi still doesn't understand what Liu Defa means, then he is not Cao Yi. However, since Liu Defa didn't say it explicitly, then he wouldn't take the initiative to point it out, after all, the initiative was on him, and he had to wait for the other party to put forward conditions in order to get the maximum profit, so Cao Yi just nodded and didn't say anything.

Liu Defa watched his performance so hard, but Cao Yi still didn't have any reaction, and he couldn't act at the moment, or maybe the acting might be appropriate, after all, he was heartbroken that he didn't make this money, which may still be true for Liu Defa.

"Cao Gongzi!" Liu Defa raised his wine glass, touched another glass of wine with Cao Yi, drank it all, and said: "Cao Gongzi, you see that since we have reconciled, and now we can be regarded as having drunk together, we should be regarded as friends who don't know each other......"

"Master Liu, I'm young, I'm not tactful enough, and I don't understand the world, but I don't think I can lie to you, although I received your yard and merchant ships, and I did write off the conflicts and grievances between me and your son, but at most there is no grudge, if you say that the relationship has become a friend now, it is actually not yet, although I say this Maybe the head of the Liu family doesn't like to hear it, but it is so, my teacher Lu Gong taught me to be honest!" Cao Yi hurriedly restrained his expression, said seriously, and said with a serious face.

"Yes, yes, Lu Gong is right, Cao Gongzi is a righteous gentleman, but the old man is not rigorous enough to speak, and he should be punished with a drink!" After saying that, Liu Defa poured his wine glass full and drank it in one gulp, but he complained wildly in his heart, just you little fox, you still say that you are honest, not tactful enough to understand the world, if you are like this, then what is my son who is not angry, is he mentally retarded, an imbecile, and a turtle son! But then he reacted as if he was scolding himself......

"Since you are honest Gongzi Cao, then I also have something to say, Gongzi Cao, you see, is it possible for me and you to cooperate in Taibai Drunk and Qinglian Wine?" Liu Defa looked at Cao Yi and asked in a slightly flattering tone.

Cao Yi looked at Liu Defa and sneered a few times in his heart, this has been bold for so long, it is to send the yard, and it is to send the boat, and he is still thinking of sending the oiran, it turned out that he had the idea to hit it on this, and now he finally showed the fox tail.

At that moment, Cao Yi also had a smile on his face: "The head of the Liu family is really a noble person who forgets things, you have already said 'you look' three times during this meal, and I also replied three times 'It's not me who looks, but how you look at it'......"

Liu Defa was also relieved by Cao Yi at this time without a little temper, and said with a slightly sad face: "Cao Gongzi, this cooperation between the two sides, you can really only put forward the conditions, I really can't say that I am ugly, I can only say that I came with great sincerity, as long as I can reach a cooperation on Taibai Drunk and Qinglian Wine, Cao Gongzi, you can put forward the conditions, as long as our Liu family can accept it, then cooperate!" ”

Cao Yi didn't reply immediately when he heard this, he pondered for a moment, and carefully thought about the possibility of cooperation between the two sides in his mind, if he firmly grasped the brewing method of Taibai Drunk and Qinglian Liquor in his hands, he really just took out the products and cooperated with the Liu family, and with the help of their salt transportation channels, the liquor was transported to all parts of Dayan to be sold, and it was not impossible.

"Master Liu, I'm not a fool, you just sent the yard and the boat in front of you for reconciliation, it should be the cooperation you mention now, right?" Cao Yi looked at Liu Defa and asked calmly.

"Yes, yes, Cao Gongzi really deserves to be the first talent in Jiangning, and he is as wise as a torch, and he can't hide anything from you, but I am sincere in my cooperation, and I am also sincere in reconciliation!" Liu Defa replied with a friendly smile, but there was still something to say in his heart, if Lu Gong and your father Cao Bin join forces, how many wealthy families in the Great Yan Dynasty can live, can I not be sincere......

"Master Liu, although you said the scene very well, I was really happy to hear it, but it's basically useless, let's go straight to the point......" In the face of Liu Defa's praise, Cao Yi smiled lightly and blocked him.

"Okay, Cao Gongzi is a real person, a real person is good, I like to deal with real people the most, and I prefer to do business with real people." Liu Defa took a step, I will say whatever you say, with a good attitude.

Cao Yi shook his head inwardly, but he still had to say what he had to say, and said: "Master Liu, we don't say secret words, I and you cooperate with Taibai Drunk and Qinglian Wine, it's not impossible, but this cooperation doesn't mean that anyone can cooperate, after all, there is only so much liquor, this is a high-end liquor, and the output is only so much, and it is not that it can be increased by increasing manpower......

Cao Yi panicked here, although this wine is indeed expensive and high-end, but the output can really be increased by increasing manpower, but he wants to ban Liu Defa from the source and want to increase his people to intervene in the brewing process, this brewing method, but his endless source of wealth, if the confidentiality work is done in place, at least he can be ahead of the technology for fifty years, that is to say, in the past fifty years, he is equivalent to a complete monopoly on this winemaking technology, so that Cao Yi has had a very large cash cow in the past fifty years, and he will not share his most precious things with others for the sake of these small profits in front of him.

Liu Defa still had some doubts in his heart, but this wine was really delicious, and he had never drunk such a good wine, and thought that it was really because of some special material or special way, so he could only brew such a little thing in a short time, so it was indeed as Cao Yi said, where to make money, why go so far. After all, although it can be sold at a higher price when it is transported to Bianjing, the time cost, transportation cost, and labor cost in the journey must be calculated, even if it is sold at twice the price in Bianjing, the profit earned from selling in Jiangning and Yangzhou is actually not as high as there.

"Gongzi Cao, is it really impossible to raise the output of this Taibai drunk and Qinglian wine?" Liu Defa still asked without giving up.

Cao Yi nodded: "It's not that it really can't be mentioned, if you do the ultimate in all aspects, there should be no problem to double it, but this is already the limit......" Cao Yi didn't say too much, because he would go to Hangzhou to open a drunken immortal building later, with these three state capitals as the core, it will slowly spread out later, so it is still to leave room for explanation for the increase in production in the future.

Liu Defa was happy in his heart, if the output is increased to two times, there is a lot more room for maneuver in the middle, anyway, if it is only the current output, Cao Yi can only supply in Jiangning and Yangzhou, so this extra double the output, he can completely go to Bianjing or even outside Dayan to earn more wealth.

"Gongzi Cao, can you cooperate with my Liu family with the additional Taibai Drunk and Qinglian Wine?" Liu Defa asked.

Cao Yi looked at Liu Defa with a smile on his face, and said softly: "It's not impossible, but I don't guarantee that I will always cooperate with you in the future...... After all, you can't put all your eggs in one basket, I think the head of the Liu family is the richest man in Yangzhou, and this truth should have been known for a long time......"
