The space boss's daily life of raising cubs, loving husbands and farming

Chapter 141 Ride

Xiaohuan thought about it and reluctantly agreed.

A small hand grabbed the hem of her clothes and pulled it. Xiaohuan looked down and met Yuanyuan's big, bright black eyes.

"Auntie, dam." Yuanyuan pointed at herself with her little finger, then waved it down vigorously, "Hit!"

I want to beat up the bad guys too!

Xiao Huan burst into laughter and readily agreed, "Okay, let Yuan Yuan hit me a few times next time."

Stone:"……"

No, why is there still differential treatment?

At the same time, Shang Wan was asking Lu Chengjing about his reply to Qiao Yu'an.

In Qiao Yu'an's letter, he first praised Shang Wan's ancestral secret recipe, then said that the ointment was particularly effective for his cousin's injury. He wanted to buy a few more boxes and also wanted to discuss business with Shang Wan.

My eldest cousin Qiao Yugui owns a medical clinic and wants to use Shang Wan's ointment as their treasure.

The two parties adopted a cooperative model, with Qiao Yuguai providing the medicinal materials and Shang Wan responsible for making the ointment. Shang Wan was given one or two taels of silver as a reward for each box of ointment.

For every box of ointment sold, Shang Wan would receive three taels of silver. The more he sold, the more he would get, which was equivalent to letting Shang Wan invest in the company's technology.

If Shang Wan agrees to cooperate, he can no longer sell the ointment to other people, nor can he cooperate with other clinics. Qiao Yuguai has the final say on when the cooperation ends.

On the surface, Shangwan has almost no cost and seems to be a good deal.

But if you think about it carefully, the restrictions on cooperation are very large. Although the so-called ancestral secret recipe is still in Shang Wan's hands, under such restrictions, it is equivalent to Qiao Yugui's property.

And there is also an obvious disadvantage, that is, the secret recipe of the ointment is likely to be prepared by Qiao Yugui's people through the required medicinal materials.

The restrictions are real, but Shang Wan doesn’t have to worry about the secret recipe being leaked.

After all, her secret recipe is spiritual spring water, and even she doesn’t know where it came from. Who can figure out the formula for spiritual spring water?

Overall, this is indeed a way to make money, but the specific cooperation still needs to be discussed in detail. At least the initiative cannot be left entirely in Qiao Yuguai's hands.

Shang Wan didn't plan to agree for the time being. She had to visit him three times to make her secret recipe seem precious.

The more reluctant you are, the more room there is for negotiation. It is not a good deal to push for more.

Lu Chengjing meant the same thing.

Things that are too easy to get often have their value devalued.

They are not in a hurry to use the money now, so they can just wait for Qiao Yuguai to come in person.

"Have you written your reply? If you have, I'll bring it to you on my way into the city."

Shang Wan changed her clothes and said to Lu Chengjing, "Yuanyuan goes into the mountains to play every day, and her clothes are not well-maintained. Xiaohuan has started to patch her clothes. I will go to the city to buy some cloth to make a few new clothes for my dear, and buy some seeds by the way."

"It's finished." Lu Chengjing took out the written letter from under the book and handed it to Shang Wan.

Shang Wan put the letter into his sleeve and went out to harness the ox cart.

When she was leaving the village, she saw Liu Yuzhi, whom she hadn't seen for some time. She thought Liu Yuzhi had gone back, but she turned out to be still at the Lin family.

Liu Yuzhi sat on a big rock not far from the village entrance in a daze. She looked fatter than the last time I saw her, and her face was rounder.

The sound of the ox cart passing by brought her back to her senses. She looked up and saw Shang Wan, startled, and asked, "Are you going into the city?"

Shang Wan nodded and continued driving the ox cart.

"Wait!" Liu Yuzhi jumped down from the rock and caught up with her skirt lifted up.

"Hey!" The ox cart stopped and Shang Wan turned around. "What's the matter?"

"I..." Liu Yuzhi stared at Shang Wan, "Can you take me into the city with you?"

"You want a ride? Sure." Shang Wan was very easy to talk to. "It's 30 cents to get into the city."

"Thirty cents!" Liu Yuzhi's eyes widened. "Others only charge five cents."

Shang Wan leaned back and glanced at her, "This is the price for my car. If you think it's too expensive, don't get in."

Liu Yuzhi looked back at the entrance of the village, gritted her teeth, climbed onto the ox cart, and said, "Let's go."

Shang Wan looked at her thoughtfully and held out his hand, "Pay first and then take the ride."

Liu Yuzhi reluctantly counted out the copper coins and handed them to Shang Wan.

Shang Wan took the money promptly and drove the ox cart towards the city, without any intention of speaking to Liu Yuzhi during the entire journey.

Liu Yuzhi couldn't help asking, "Why don't you ask me what I'm doing in the city?"

Shang Wan glanced back at her and said, "Just tell me what I ask you?"

Liu Yuzhi pursed her lips, turned her head to look at the scenery along the way, and stopped talking.

After entering the city, the two went their separate ways.

"Hey." Shang Wan called Liu Yuzhi, "Are you still going to take the bus? I'll give you a discount."

Liu Yuzhi glanced at her with a puzzled expression, shook her head, and hurriedly walked into the crowd, disappearing soon.

Shang Wan went to the East Market to shop first, and only went to the Qiao Mansion after buying everything.

Qiao Yu'an was in the mansion. The doorman ran in to tell Shang Wan to wait by the ox cart.

After a while, Qiao Yu'an and A Le hurried out.

Shang Wan handed the letter to him directly.

Qiao Yu'an put the letter in his arms and signaled A Le to give the blue bag to Shang Wan.

Shang Wan opened the bundle and took a look, and found that it contained account books and some miscellaneous items. She put the bundle directly in the ox cart.

"You bought so many things." Qiao Yu'an glanced at the half-loaded ox cart and asked about Lu Chengjing's recent situation, "How is Chengjing's injury recovering?"

Shang Wan said vaguely: "It's OK."

Qiao Yu'an was not very satisfied with this statement. Good is good, bad is bad, so what does "okay" mean?

Just as he was about to ask further questions, a blue sedan stopped in front of the Qiao Mansion.

The blue door curtain was lifted, and a maid helped Qiao Weiwei out of the sedan chair. When she looked up, she saw Shang Wan and Qiao Yu'an standing together and talking.

A hint of surprise flashed across Qiao Weiwei's eyes. She walked over lightly and greeted Qiao Yu'an.

Qiao Yu'an asked her with a smile: "Where did you go to play?"

Qiao Weiwei said: "Go to the temple to fulfill your wish."

Qiao Yu'an nodded, and seeing that she looked tired, he urged her to go back home and rest.

Shang Wan's nose twitched slightly, looking at Qiao Weiwei's back, and kindly reminded Qiao Yu'an, "Be careful with your sister."

People who go to a temple usually dress simply and elegantly, but Qiao Weiwei was dressed lavishly. Not only did she not have the scent of temple incense, but instead had the smell of blood.

Although the scent of powder was very strong, it still couldn't hide from Shang Wan's nose.

Of course, it is not ruled out that Qiao Weiwei had her period.

But if a woman has her menstrual period, according to the customs of this world, menstruation is considered dirty, and women who have their menstrual period cannot enter the temple.

Anyway, Shang Wan felt that something was wrong with Qiao Weiwei. Qiao Yu'an cared about his sister very much, so it was no trouble to remind her.

Qiao Yu'an misunderstood and explained: "Weiwei treats Cheng Jingruo as a brother, please don't misunderstand."

Shang Wan: “…”

Never mind, she has already reminded me anyway.

"Let's go." Shang Wan jumped onto the ox cart and drove away.

When we arrived at the village entrance, sunset had already appeared in the sky.

Shang Wan looked at Mrs. Liu and Old Lady Wei who were blocking the ox cart. Did these two want to be hit by the ox again?

Of course, the two of them were not looking for trouble.

Old Lady Wei looked unhappy and asked, "Mr. Shang, where is Yuzhi? Where did you take her?"
