191 Little Ah Yu Discussing Business
“Better than a lucky draw?”
Little Ah Yu thought about it for a long time but could not think of anything better than a lucky draw.
[Your mission this time is a chain mission. The first step is to save that merchant, and the second step is to negotiate a deal with that merchant.]
[As long as the negotiated deal exceeds 1,000 taels of silver, the spatial mall channel will open!]
If it was in the past, based on the Wang Family’s slow speed of earning money, Meatball would probably have to wait for Ah Yu to grow up before they could unlock the spatial mall.
However, this chain mission gave it hope.
Old man Wang’s family was not stupid. They knew how to use their connections. As long as there were enough conditions, they could rise.
Of course, this was inseparable from Ah Yu’s help.
When Little Ah Yu heard that they needed 1,000 taels of silver, she felt confused.
She could count to 100 now and roughly knew that 1,000 was as much as 10 fingers of 100.
That was a number she had never thought of. It was so high.
“Is 1,000 taels of silver a lot? Does Uncle Chen have that much silver?”
Uncle Chen was that businessman. His name was Chen Yuan.
[Don’t worry, he definitely has it.]
It was just that the price that Chen Yuan had in mind was not 1,000 taels, but 800 taels.
These were the words Meatball had spent energy overhearing after learning about the mission.
Actually, this price was already very high. If he met other small workshops, Chen Yuan would only offer 100 or 200 taels at most.
The reason why he offered 800 taels was because he wanted to repay the favor. The additional money offered was the fixed price for saving his life.
Chen Yuan was not someone who did good deeds without leaving his name, so he naturally told Wang Chuanyuan and his wife the reason for his high offer.
Because the amount was too large, Wang Chuanyuan and his wife could not decide at all. Cai Niu was even more flustered and did not know what to do.
Who had ever seen so much silver?
Even banknotes came from exchanging silver!
“We really can’t make the decision on this matter. We have to ask the elders in the family.” Wang Chuanyuan rubbed his hands and sounded a little uneasy.
It was indeed good to be able to earn so much money.
At the very least, their bun shop would probably not be able to earn so much even after ten years.
After all, the flow of customers was limited, and they used the best ingredients within their abilities. The cost was not low.
The net profit was naturally not as high as outsiders thought.
Old man Wang also knew about this, but he could not make up his mind. He felt that his wife had asked the children to open a bun shop as a way of settling down.
What if the recipe was sold and his wife had other plans?
Chen Yuan said, “Your family can discuss it first. I’ll stay here for another two days. At that time, you can tell me the results.”
Actually, Chen Yuan could simply buy their buns. When he returned home, he would find someone to study the cooking method thoroughly and save himself a few hundred taels of silver.
However, Chen Yuan disdained to do that.
He did not lack this bit of money. There was no need to be a profiteer.
Because of Chen Yuan’s kindness in this moment, he would gain an unimaginable amount of wealth in the next few decades.
However, there was no way he could foresee all of this at this moment.
Under Meatball’s instructions, Little Ah Yu first told her family that she was going to look for Qin Huai.
Wang Wulang and the others were now addicted to martial arts. Because they were boys and were older than Little Ah Yu, their tasks were usually heavier than Little Ah Yu’s. Hence, they were still practicing at Qin Huai’s house.
Therefore, the Wang Family did not hesitate to let her go.
The two families were not far apart. The neighbors along the way all knew Little Ah Yu and would help take care of the children so they naturally had no worries.
They never thought that Little Ah Yu would lie to them.
After Little Ah Yu went out, she did not look for Qin Huai. Instead, she turned the corner and went to the South River Inn.
Chen Yuan lived in the South River Inn.
The first floor of the inn was the dining area. There were a few dishes and a pot of wine in front of Chen Yuan.
From afar, he saw a little girl in a colorful dress whose chubby face moved as she ran.
Beside her, a little white lamb galloped along.
The lamb was especially intelligent. It first ran at the front to push through the crowd, then ran to the girl and circled her twice.
Sometimes, it felt that she was running too slowly and would even use its horns to push her forward.
“Little lamb, stop fooling around!” Little Ah Yu giggled and dodged the little lamb, pretending to be angry as she spoke to it.
It was unknown if the lamb understood her.
After running for a while, she arrived at the South River Inn.
The waiter of the inn was attracting guests outside. When he saw Little Ah Yu arrive, his originally tired expression turned to joy. “Ah Yu, you’re here to bring wine for your grandfather again?”
“Uncle Waiter, I’m not bringing wine today!” Little Ah Yu smiled and shook her head.
Just as she was about to ask the waiter where Uncle Chen was, she saw Chen Yuan sitting inside.
...
Little Ah Yu was pleasantly surprised. She shouted in a bright voice, “Uncle Chen!”
After shouting, she lifted her skirt and tried her best to cross the threshold, heading straight for Chen Yuan.
Chen Yuan looked at Little Ah Yu running towards him and was a little amused. “You specially came to look for me? Did your adults ask you to come?”
Little Ah Yu shook her head and stood obediently beside Chen Yuan. “I came here myself.”
“Sit here. Have you eaten? Do you want to eat something?” Chen Yuan called the waiter over and asked him to serve some sweet cakes.
“I’ve eaten!” Little Ah Yu obediently climbed onto the stool and sat down. Then, she tried her best to look serious and said to Chen Yuan, “Uncle Chen, can I discuss business with you?”
“Oh, what business do you want to discuss with me?” Chen Yuan replied casually.
Little Ah Yu: “It’s our steamed bun!”
The sweet cakes were done and the waiter quickly served them. When Chen Yuan heard Little Ah Yu’s words, he called the waiter to change them to a private room.
The inn was not a restaurant, and there was only one private room. The guests in the private room just happened to have left, so it was vacated for them.
After entering the private room, Little Ah Yu looked even happier.
...
Uncle Chen was so nice. He did not treat her like a child.
Although she was still a child.
“Alright, talk to me.” Chen Yuan only had an especially good impression of Little Ah Yu. Even if they’d moved to a private room, he did not really expect to discuss business with Little Ah Yu. He just wanted to make this little fellow happy.
Meatball had told Little Ah Yu before what she was supposed to say to Chen Yuan.
Now that the two of them were sitting opposite each other, Meatball was afraid that Little Ah Yu would feel confused, so it did not say anything.
Little Ah Yu tried her best to think of what the elf had told her and said seriously, “Uncle Chen, can you use 1,000 taels to buy our things?”
Hearing the figure of 1,000 taels, Chen Yuan’s eyebrows twitched.
At this moment, he suspected that this child was sent by Old man Wang’s family.
Could it be that he wanted to use a child to test his bottom line?
He did not mind taking the initiative to repay the favor, but if his kindness was exploited, he would feel uncomfortable.
Chen Yuan thought about it in his heart, but he did not show it on his face.
“Then tell Uncle, why do you want 1,000 taels?”
Little Ah Yu did not notice that Chen Yuan’s attitude was different now. Her expression was especially serious. “Because our steamed buns are especially delicious! But Uncle Chen can’t make such delicious food even if you buy the recipe.”
The reason why the Wang Family Steamed Bun Shop could completely crush the other shops was definitely not only because of their skills.
Especially Wang Chuanyuan and his wife. They had only officially come into contact with steamed buns not long ago. How skilled could they be?
Moreover, the meat soup dumplings they had developed had only been launched more than a month ago.
But the taste was just delicious.
Of course, this was because of Little Ah Yu’s Myriad Spirit Water.
There were a few drops of the gene repair agent in the well water of the Wang Family Steamed Bun Shop.
Later on, when the gene repair agent was completely saturated, Little Ah Yu even added a ladle of Myriad Spirit Water.
The elf reminded her that if she added too much, the consumers would crap in their pants on the spot after eating it.
The spring water that contained vitality was the final secret of the Wang Family Steamed Bun Shop.
And this secret was in Little Ah Yu’s hands.
Therefore, this business could only be discussed by Little Ah Yu.
