Chapter 1158: Business
When Da Qiao heard that Yu Dong was here to talk about business her eyes lit up. She knew that Yu Dong was indeed someone with a lot of ideas, if she came here with a business plan then surely her village might be able to survive this troublesome situation.
” Xing, go and bring some tea and cakes,” she told her husband who was listening to the conversation through the window while inviting Yu Dong to sit down at the stone table in her courtyard. Of course, Lin Xing was not going to treat Yu Dong badly after hearing that she was here to talk about business.
He immediately went inside the kitchen and arranged a set of a few expensive cakes and then brought them out for Yu Dong along with the tea that his mother-in-law drank.
Da Qiao turned to face Yu Dong after she was done telling her husband to bring out the snacks. She then asked, ” What business are you talking about, Miss Yu?”
” Pickles,” Yu Dong answered just as Lin Xing walked out of the house. When the Qiao couple heard Yu Dong’s response they could not help but frown. Da Qiao stated, ” Miss Yu, I already told you that we are not going to sell the recipe for the pickles.” These recipes were the only thing that belonged to their village, if they handed it over like this then they would be making a loss.
How could they agree? Just like that?
Yu Dong shook her head and then corrected Da Qiao, ” I am not here to buy the recipes for the pickles. I am here to ask whether or not you are willing to sell your homemade pickles to me exclusively. If you agree to sell pickles to me then you might not be able to sell to others in the town. Of course, I would pay you accordingly as well such that you don’t have to worry about your livelihood.”
” You… You want us to make pickles?” Da Qiao was stunned when she heard Yu Dong’s business idea. If they were going to sell pickles then this was something that Da Qiao could agree to, she thought about Yu Dong’s suggestion and then said in a low voice, ” What are the terms?”
Seeing that she was willing to listen, Yu Dong, hummed softly and then explained, ” If you are willing to share the burden with me, let’s say that if you are going to wait till the pickles are sold then I will share fifty per cent of the total earning no matter what price I set for the pickles but if you want to receive payment at the time of delivery then I would buy your pickles for seven hundred cents per jar.”
” Of course, there will be two kinds of jars one that will be handed by your village and the other will be the ones which will be made by the vegetables that I will hand you. Don’t worry I will hand you the same amount of money for each of the jars.”
Both of the options were quite tempting causing Da Qiao and her husband to be tempted. But they did not answer at once instead Da Qiao nodded and then said, ” I will discuss this matter with the elders, whatever their decisions will be, I will tell you in two days.”
” Okay,” Yu Dong was not in a hurry either, she nodded and asked Da Qiao to take as much time as she wanted before taking her leave.
There were two reasons for her plan.
One reason was to make a profit from the Big Mountain Village and the second was to make sure that the friendly relations between the two villages. If she helped the Big Mountain Village then the villagers would stand next to her and her family, that way she wouldn’t have any trouble when she ‘rescued’ Ying Nan.
On the other hand, when the villagers of the Big River Village found out that Yu Dong went to discuss business with the Big Mountain Village, they were in awe.
” Yu Dong is really making us proud. Have you noticed the other villages are treating us with extreme respect these days?”
” Indeed, after all the vegetables sold by our village are really good. Look at the lettuce, it’s so big and shiny. Just looking at it makes me want to eat heartily.”
” Ah, of course, they are really good. I fed the yellowing leaves to my chicken and you know what? They actually laid eggs the next day! I am not lying when I say that I have never eaten eggs as good as the one that was laid by them.”
” Really? Well, I did take a small bite of the roasted eggplant and I have to admit that it was really good. Surely if we make pickles with such vegetables they would be really good.”

The villagers discussed as they harvested in their fields. They were going to bring these vegetables that had grown to Yu Dong such that they could open the mall as soon as possible.
” But will she be able to sell all of these vegetables? I mean they might be a thousand catties.”
” You are worrying about the wrong thing, you should be worried if this many vegetables would be enough,” stated another woman. ” I have seen the building that Yu Dong had opened at the town, with such a fancy building, it would be a hard time for anyone including the commoners to not buy anything.”
” Really?”
” Of course. I went to the town two days ago to bring medicine for heat stroke and I can assure you that I have never seen something like that before.”
The woman who spoke was someone who did not speak nonsense thus many believed what she said and could not help but exclaim in shock and surprise.
” No wonder, Yu Dong wanted so much stock of vegetables and meat, it’s because she already had a plan in her head.”
” When have you ever seen Yu Dong work without a plan?”
” Thats true, hahaha!”
