Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let's Farm

Upon arriving at the Zuixian Building, Shopkeeper Zhou of course greeted them with a smile.

Knowing that Qiao Xiaomai wanted to sell dried tofu, he immediately had an even bigger grin on his face.

Even though the product was still made from soybeans, it was a fresh idea. Pairing it with their existing items, ah, the Zuixian Building menu could be updated once again!

Shopkeeper Zhou looked at Qiao Xiaomai as if he was looking at a gold Yuanbao, the more he looked at her, the more satisfied he became.

“Miss Qiao, you’re indeed very ingenious, and always coming up with new and surprising creations,” he praised.

Upon hearing this, Qiao Xiaomai just smiled, “Shopkeeper, I’m the seller this time round. We have cooperated many times, so 1 won’t ask for too much. For this vegetarian meat recipe, two hundred taels.”

She held out two fingers as she spoke.

That’s right, just like how tofu pudding become White Jade Flower, the dried tofu also got a new name: Vegetarian Meat.

The method of making dried tofu is slightly more complicated than tofu skin, but it’s quite simple to explain. To sell it at a high price, Qiao Xiaomai could only rename it.

Shopkeeper Zhou lifted his hand and stroked his beard. “Miss Qiao, we need to consider the recipe’s ingredients and methods, and decide how much it’s worth based on them, right?”

“All 1 can say is, the profit that this Vegetarian Meat will bring, will definitely exceed two hundred taels.”

Qiao Xiaomai continued to smile as she spoke.

Truth be told, she was a bit frustrated about selling the recipe.

A recipe is certainly a private innovation, regardless of what the ingredients and methods are. As long as this private innovation exists, how much money it sells for depends entirely on the owner’s asking price.

No matter how simple the recipe is, as long as other people can’t think of it, you can sell it for money.

Just like patents in later generations, the first one to come up with the idea should get the patent fee.

If you are annoyed that it’s too simple after shelling out the money to buy it, then there’s no use. Who told you not to think of the idea that others came up with?

But the people here are too savvy. Both Shopkeeper He and Shopkeeper Zhou always ask about the ingredients and methods first, and then decide how much silver to give based on them.

As for her, because these things weren’t her original creations, she didn’t have the heart to demand exorbitant prices.

But right now, she wants to buy a yard in the town and is in urgent need of silver. This time, she won’t easily compromise.

“But this two hundred taels…” Shopkeeper Zhou hesitated.

Earlier, the cold jelly noodle recipe was only fifty taels, and tofu only traded for over a hundred acres of land. This so-called Vegetarian Meat was made from soybeans too, and was probably a variation of tofu.

A small variation requires two hundred taels…

Tsk, it’s too pricey.

“If the shopkeeper is unwilling, then I’ll go to Extreme Taste Residence and ask Shopkeeper He.” Qiao Xiaomai said.

“Ah, wait a minute.” Shopkeeper Zhou quickly tried to stop her.

“Shopkeeper, Zuixian Building is a large business, are you hesitating over two hundred taels silver?” Qiao Xiaomai asked.

Shopkeeper Zhou’s chubby face instantly showed a troubled expression. “Miss, you may not know that I’m just a worker here. The real boss is in the Capital City. And when doing business, isn’t bargaining a must?”

“Shopkeeper, the price this time can only be two hundred taels, it can’t be reduced anymore.”

“This…”

Shopkeeper Zhou was still somewhat hesitant.

At this moment, a waiter rushed over from outside. “Shopkeeper, the previous esteemed guest has come again, he has specifically requested for you upstairs.”

Upon hearing this, Shopkeeper Zhou quickly said, “Miss Qiao, please wait a moment, I’ll be back soon.”

The esteemed guest was indeed Yang Ye, who absolutely couldn’t be neglected.

Hurrying to the best private room on the second floor, Shopkeeper Zhou waited for the guard standing at the door to announce his arrival before he entered.

Yang Ye was dressed in gorgeous long robes, lazily lounging in a chair. Seeing Zhou entering, he pointed his chin towards a girl sitting beside him, “Shopkeeper Zhou, bring that Jade Bamboo you made for me last time. Let the princess taste it.”

Jade Bamboo was indeed tofu skin..
