Took control of the wheat supply…… How could it be possible?

The ingredients that Jinji bought was flour, not wheat. At most, they could only hold onto the flour supplier temporarily.

Shopkeeper Sun snorted coldly, “Girl, you said it so casually, do you really think it’s easy to make that?”

Su Xiaoxiao said calmly, “That’s why I’m here to negotiate terms with you. If you push me too hard, I would rather work harder and be exhausted, or even sell less, than to give up the recipe!”

This little fat village girl!

Shopkeeper Sun clenched his fist and said, “You name a price!”

“Twenty taels!” Su Xiaoxiao said.

Shopkeeper Sun narrowed his eyes.

“For one recipe.” Su Xiaoxiao continued.

Shopkeeper Sun’s face darkened!

One recipe cost twenty, then wouldn’t the recipes be sixty?

The recipe they bought from Fucheng had never been so expensive!

Shopkeeper Sun angrily said, “Twenty five taels, three recipes! Girl! Don’t think too highly of yourself! So what if you can make flour, I have many ways to make your business fail!”

“50 taels!”

“30 taels!”

Su Xiaoxiao coldly said, “45 taels, I will not do it if it’s one copper coin less!”

Shopkeeper Sun’s face darkened.

Seeing that the situation was not going well, the big men at the side were rubbing their fists and palms one by one, and surrounded the Su siblings all together.

The meaning of this couldn’t be more obvious.

If you continued to be arrogant, then you would have to taste their fists.

But Su Xiaoxiao did not budge in the slightest, and kept stubborn at the price of 45 taels.

This was at least 25 taels higher than what Shopkeeper Sun had expected.

The fact that he brought so many people in the first place was because he wanted to openly force them to give out the recipes. Giving 20 taels of money was only for silencing them.

But the bones* of this pair of siblings were really hard.

*bones: it means the character of a person.

Shopkeeper Sun threatened, “Girl, don’t be unable to differentiate good from bad*.”

*unable to differentiate good from bad (idiom) : not to know what’s good for one / unable to recognize other’s good intentions.

Su Xiaoxiao said lightly, “Then let’s just have a fight, but don’t ever think of getting those recipes!”

The big man who was the leader walked over eagerly and said, “Master Sun, just leave this to several of my brothers, I promise to get the recipes for you”

Shopkeeper Sun raised his hand to stop him and said to Su Xiaodao, “45 taels is 45 taels, deal!”

……

A quarter of an hour later, the pair of siblings left.

Shopkeeper Sun got into the carriage and looked at the list that was dictated by Su Xiaoxiao in his hand, which he personally wrote, then he revealed a heartfelt smile.

The big man who was the leader stood outside and lifted the curtain: “Master Sun, have you got it?”

Shopkeeper Sun dusted off the three paper recipes in his hand and smiled proudly, “I finally got it in my hand, it’s really not easy ah.”

The big man smiled and said, “Just like what you say, she was just a village girl. It’s easy to scare her. It was Master Sun who was too generous before, for not messing with her. Today, with our brothers here, that little fat girl must be too scared to move!”

On the surface, these words were to praise Shopkeeper Sun. But in fact, he was putting gold on his own face*, and it was not very clever.

*Putting gold on his own face: intentionally beautifying or exaggerating about himself, boasting about himself, praising about himself.

Shopkeeper Sun was a veteran. Could it be possible for him to not understand this?

He was in a good mood today, so he was too lazy to care about it.

The big man hesitated and asked, “Master Sun, this recipe… it can’t be fake, right?”

Shopkeeper Sun glared at him and said, “What are you thinking? If she dares to give me a fake recipe, I will immediately cut off her flour supply!”

The big man chuckled and said, “You’re right. I forgot about that.”

“That girl absolutely didn’t have the guts to fool me with fake recipes……” Shopkeeper Sun put away the recipes.

However, he didn’t know whether it was because of being interrupted by his subordinates, but he suddenly felt strange.
