Liu Qi’s eyes lit up when he heard that. He immediately said happily, “really?!”
Lin Yuelan nodded, “yes. There are many sour fruits in the back mountain of our village. As long as the sour fruits are fermented, they can be made into fruit wine. However,” When it came to sharing the profits, Lin Yuelan didn’t want to suffer any losses. She said directly, “Since I have to find the raw materials and brew them, I wish to have 70 percent of the profit share this time. Is that okay?”
For the dishes, she only needed to provide the recipes. She didn’t need to do anything. But for the wines, it was the plete opposite.
Yuelai Inn only needed to sell the wines. Lin Yuelan had to do everything else. Of course, she felt like she deserved more of the profit.
Liu Qi thought about it and nodded in agreement. “Alright. However, I hope that Miss Lin will reserve a few jars for me when you’re brewing the first batch of fruit wine. ”
!!
“Of course, no problem.” They had happy cooperation.
At that moment, shopkeeper Liu came over with an accounting book, an Abacus, and some silver notes and taels.
The moment he arrived, he said to Liu Qi, “young master,this is last month’s account book!”
His nose twitched as he caught a whiff of the alluring aroma of the wine.
Then, he caught a glimpse of the bright red liquid in the glass from the corner of his eye. He was shocked, but then he relaxed.
Liu Qi picked up the account book and flipped through it. Then, he handed it to Lin Yuelan and said, “Miss Lin, this is the account book for the fish sale last month. Take a look.”
Shopkeeper Liu’s mouth twitched when he heard that. ‘We sold more than just fish.’
Lin Yuelan took the account book and raised her eyebrows. She was a little surprised that they had made so much profit in one month.
Lin Yuelan asked in surprise, “three hundred taels? It’s only been a month, and yet there are three hundred taels. Shopkeeper Liu, did you calculate it correctly?”
She and Liu Qi had a 30-70 profit split. She couldn’t believe she could get so much money in just a month.
Probably she had underestimated the spending power of the ancient people. After all, the villagers in Lin Family Village were extremely stingy.
But looking at the account, it appeared like the people in town was more casual with their spending.
When shopkeeper Liu heard Lin Yuelan questioning him, he said seriously, “Miss Lin, the carp soup is thirty copper coins a serving, and the braised fish is fifty copper coins a serving… We can sell at least thirty servings of each dish a day. In a month, after deducting the cost, we will earn a total profit of one thousand taels. We will split it seven-three, with Yuelai Inn getting seven and you getting three. So, the three hundred taels of silver now is the net profit from selling those dished last month. Miss Lin, do you have any more questions?”
Lin Yuelan felt that she had offended shopkeeper Liu, so she immediately shook her head, “No. You’ve made your calculations very clear. Shopkeeper Liu, you’re really amazing!” Lin Yuelan quickly forted him.
Sure enough, shopkeeper Liu said with pride and modesty, “Miss Lin, you’re overpraising me.”
The other three were watching, secretly covering their mouths and laughing.
Liu Qi took the silver notes and taels from the plate and handed them to Lin Yuelan. “Here are three banknotes for 100 tael and 15 taels of silver.”
Lin Yuelan took her earnings and said to Jiang Zhennan and Liu Jiaying, “order whatever you want to eat later. I’ll pay for it!”
The others’ faces paled. Didn’t she see the owner of the restaurant sitting there? Did she really think Liu Qi would let her pay?
Liu Jiaying said boldly, “Yuelan, I should say that. You can order as much as you want. This is my restaurant. I’ll pay for the meal!”
The corners of Jiang Zhennan and Liu Qi’s mouths twitched. ‘What are these two girls doing?’
No matter what, the person paying, in the end, would be Liu Qi…
