Chapter 175: Refusal
Zou Ping heard that this princess was from a humble background, and she used to live with her family in the poor and war-torn north, and her family was not wealthy.
Although he has opened a sugar shop now, his time is still short, and the money he wants to earn is limited.
Now that I heard him offer such a large amount, I don't believe that she is not impressed.
However, the situation that Zou Ping imagined did not appear, Xiao Jinyue just glanced at him in surprise, and then refused without hesitation, "I'm sorry, I don't plan to sell the formula." ”
Zou Pingzheng raised his chin slightly, waiting for her to show a look of surprise, but what he heard was rejection, the complacency on his face immediately dissipated, and his face sank visibly.
Xiao Jinyue didn't expect that Zou Xueman's second uncle would come to see him and actually want to buy the sugar recipe in her hand.
I don't know where he got the confidence to think that as soon as he opened his mouth, he would sell him the formula.
At first glance, the price of the formula for each serving of sugar is 500 taels, which sounds like a lot, but she is not a fool, she does not do a good independent business, but she wants to sell the formula to competitors.
She hasn't seen such a sum of money yet, even if she is now trapped in the Zhenguo Mansion and can't expand her business. But just with those kinds of sugar in the store, it doesn't take long to make tens of thousands of dollars.
In addition to these, the reason why her father wants to enter the household department is to check the accounts of Zou Yuanchang, the left waiter of the household department.
In this way, her father and Zou Yuanchang are bound to have a hostile relationship, how could she drag her father back and sell her formula to Zou Ping, so that he can help Jin Yuanzheng make money.
Zou Ping originally thought that if he offered such a high price, this Xiao girl would be overjoyed to sell him the formula, but he never thought that she would refuse.
This will have a gloomy face, and said with an unhappy face, "Princess Shizi, the price of this formula of five hundred taels is not low. In the whole of Kyoto, there are not many people who can afford this price, but I can guarantee that there are definitely not a few.
Moreover, if others take a fancy to your formula, they may not come to your door to discuss with you like me. You know, those profit-heavy businessmen have a lot of ways to get your recipe out.
Princess, I advise you to think about it, is this the truth. ”
Zou Ping thought that if he used both soft and hard words, the princess should change her mind.
Who knew that Xiao Jinyue didn't buy his account, "Don't think about it, I can answer you now - my formula is not for sale." ”
She's not a little girl who doesn't know anything about the world, and she'll offer the formula with both hands if she threatens a few words. Not to mention that she can't sell formulas, take 10,000 steps back, even if she has to sell, she won't sell it to people related to Zou Changyuan.
Zou Ping didn't expect that he would say everything like this, and the princess of the Zhenguo Mansion would not give him any face. Although he is a white body, as the owner behind Jin Yuanzheng and the second master of the Zuo Shilang Mansion of the Household Department, who will not give him some face when he goes out.
He has never been humiliated like this, and he is still a girl's family.
has been rejected repeatedly, Zou Ping's heart is already full of anger, if it was normal, he would have brushed his sleeves away.
But thinking that this time is different from the past, he can't lift his feet.
Since the opening of Sugar Hunt, whether it is those dignitaries or ordinary people, those who need to buy sugar basically go to Sugar Hunt. Even those small stalls and vendors went to look for sugar to buy it, resulting in the sugar in their trading houses from the original supply to almost no one cares about it today.
If it is tightly sucrose unsalable, it is just that, but their trading house doesn't know what's going on recently, and there are various problems inexplicably, such as the goods that are put in the warehouse at the good end are either bitten by rats in large quantities, or moldy and smelly.
Even the second steward went out to buy goods, and was drenched by a sudden heavy rain on the way, and the dozen or so cars of all kinds of silk covered with oilcloth also entered a large amount of rainwater, and the batch of cloth was destroyed.
However, his eldest brother was in urgent need of a large sum of money recently, but the income of the business house had shrunk greatly, and he could not get the amount that his brother needed.
He told his brother the difficulties of the trading house, and wanted him to give him some time to wait for the trading house to resume normal operations and the funds were withdrawn, and then give him two taels of silver, or let him ask for less silver.
But his good brother-in-law didn't listen to it at all, saying that the firm was handed over to him to take care of, and when he needed money, he must give it to him on time and in quantity, otherwise he would take back his right to take care of the firm and hand it over to the third brother to take care of.
His mother-in-law was even more excessive, suspecting that the inexplicable things that happened in the trading house were his ghosts, in order to take the opportunity to take advantage of the profits of the trading house into her own pocket.
It's just that he is used to spending money lavishly, and he likes to block a few handfuls when he has nothing to do, and he even looks at the green buildings everywhere from time to time. As a result, the money in his hand was simply not enough to spend, and over time, he set his sights on the income of the trading house.
The embezzlement of money from the commercial bank has become the norm, although he pulled the account room into the water and made him make a false account, but it is difficult to ensure that he will not be detected by his brother and mother-in-law.
In addition, the third brother and the people in the clan have long been dissatisfied with his monopoly on the management of the trading house, and they can't wait to keep an eye on his mistakes all the time, and want to remove him from the trading house.
In order to keep the power in his hands, he had no choice but to scrape together and sell most of the inventory of the trading house at a low price, and even sold a grange and a shop that he secretly purchased in the house, which was enough to make up the large amount of money that his brother wanted.
His wife even had a big fight with him about it.
Now he has no money in his hands, and the capital turnover of the commercial bank is also difficult. If he doesn't want to find a few ways to get money, the next time his brother asks him for money, he can't take it out, so he can only hand over the management of the firm.
He has become accustomed to the identity of the owner of Jin Yuanzheng, who is flattered by everyone, if the management of the firm is taken back, who will put him in the eyes of a second master?
Besides, he is used to spending money, and letting him live a life of poverty and whiteness again is even more uncomfortable than killing him.
This time, he said that he would buy the formula in the hands of the princess of Zhenguo. As far as he knew, the sugars made by Sugar Hunting were unique in the entire Yuankang Dynasty.
If he bought the recipe and opened sugar shops throughout the Yuankang Dynasty, there would inevitably be a steady stream of money. At that time, even if his mother and brother wanted to take back the management of the business house in his hands, he would not have it.
These thoughts flashed through his mind one by one, and the anger in his heart had to be suppressed, and he said to Xiao Jinyue again, "Princess Shizi, I sincerely want to buy your formula, if the price is not satisfied, we can still discuss."
Also, if you sell me the recipe, you can open your sugar search. I've got the recipe, and I'm going to open a store outside of Kyoto, and I'm definitely not going to steal business from you. ”
Three more are served!
Sincerely ask for a wave of tickets, any ticket will do......
