Manager Lin took out a piece of pork belly and put it into his mouth, tasting it carefully.

After a while, he asked, “Miss Qingqing, do you want to sell the recipe for this?”

Jian Qingqing smiled and said, “Manager Lin, to be honest, this is a recipe passed down from my ancestors. I won’t sell it easily.”

Manager Lin expressed his understanding. Some family recipes could make a family flourish and would not be easily exposed. Many chefs were famous because of that family recipe and were invited by some big restaurants.

“Then how do you plan to sell it?”

“I plan to sell this pork belly for 150 wen. There are also pigs in the water here. Do you want to try it? If you want, I’ll sell it for 70 wen.”

The essence of selling things was to double the price. Some profiteers would even double the price. However, Jian Qingqing was not a profiteer and she was not thick-skinned enough, so she was embarrassed to raise the price so much.

“Oh? You even cooked pork innards so well?” Manager Lin was very curious, so he also picked up a piece of large intestine.

“Yes, not bad.” Manager Lin tasted it as he ate. “There is no fishy smell from the water. It is very fragrant and chewy. However, our customers may not like to eat these things.”

Jian Qingqing understood. After all, the customers who came to eat were either rich or noble. They thought that pig innards were something that could not be served on the table. Even if it was delicious, they would not order it.

“Then you can just order the streaky pork or lean pork.”

“Okay, then you can order 20 catties of streaky pork tomorrow. According to what you said, Ill pay 150 wen per catty. But you can’t sell it to other restaurants.”

“Yes, I understand this little rule.”

“Okay, I’ll give you an advance for tomorrow’s money later. By the way, can you make the decision on this?”

“Don’t worry, Manager Lin. My family knows about this. Listen to me too.”

“Okay.” Manager Lin was a little surprised. Her family gave up their business to her at such a young age?

However, this had nothing to do with him. He went in and took out two taels of silver and 463 wen.

“These two taels are reserved for stewed meat. We’ll settle the rest tomorrow.”

“Okay, thank you, Manager Lin!”

Jian Qingqing was extremely happy to be able to complete this business, but there were also worries that came with it. She needed to make several pots of meat of at least 20 catties, and her pot was still too small.

When she earned more money, she would definitely change to a big iron pot. If she bought a big iron pot, she would definitely build a kitchen as well. At that time, she would also need to build a house, buy a new bed, and buy a quilt. The one she had been using for God knows how many years, the cotton inside had turned black and hard.

Buy, buy, buy.

She had to buy everything. She had to earn a lot of money!

Jian Qingqing felt her blood boiling. She was full of fighting spirit and wanted to earn a lot of money.

It was very difficult for her to carry 20 pounds of pork back alone, so she asked Uncle Ox to pick her up.

Uncle Ox was very surprised when he saw her buy so much meat. “Yo! Miss, it seems that your business is successful!”

Jian Qingqing was very happy. “That’s right. Today, I took it to the manager of Yunlai Restaurant as a sample. He thought it was very delicious and ordered 20 catties from me. I’ll bring some for you to try tomorrow!”

Uncle Ox chuckled. “That’s great. I’ll have to wait. Yesterday, I knew that you were a courageous person and that you would definitely succeed. Your family will definitely become better and better!”

“Thank you, Uncle!” Jian Qingqing handed the money to him.

Uncle Ox waved his hand. “No need, no need. I quite like you. Just treat me as a friend. From now on, you don’t have to pay me to take my cart!”

“Okay, then thank you, Uncle!” From now on, she just had to give him more braised and stewed meat.
