Song Yixu smiled like a blooming rose as she watched the jars and jars of wine being brought inside her restaurant " Dong Dong, why don't we do this? Since the two of us could be counted as acquaintances why don't you sign the contract with me? It will give you a permanent income as well. "

  Yu Dong by now understood everything yet she didn't hurry in agreeing with Song Yixu. Firstly, Song Yixu was only responsible for giving her a stage to sell her wine and nothing else and secondly if Yu Dong opened a wine shop later on in the upcoming future she could earn a lot more but then again opening a shop without a backer wasn't easy , so before signing a contract she needs to firmly discuss her advantages without offending Song Yixu " Madam Song, today I not only bought wine but something new as well, why don't we sit down and discuss the matter of signing contract together ?"

  " of course, of course, come with me! I will take you to my private parlour! Sister Xi bring me the new thing that Doing Doing brought" Song Yixu was indeed a lot more enthusiastic than before she was even bringing Yu Dong and Ye Liu to her private parlour!

  Ye Liu felt a bit uncomfortable by Song Yixu's keen attitude it was as if she was some big wolf trying to lure two fat sheep into her cave, not that either he or Yu Doing could be called fat sheep with their thin figures. He shook his head and timidly, pulled at Yu Dong's sleeves " we should just talk in here, it's too much -"

  " it's almost noon, the benefactors of my restaurant cannot go back without eating lunch. If Marquis found out about it, she will definitely use this to bad mouth me in front of you, so that she will be able to order the wind directly from you instead of me. I can't let you go back empty stomach, come, Sister Xi, tried a new dish come and have a bite of it " without letting Yu Dong and Ye Liu refuse, Song Yixu pulled them in her private parlour.

  They had set out early in the morning because Yu Dong didn't want to alert the villagers. She was already on the red mark because of Fang Chi's incident, so she didn't want to be gossiped about anymore. Of course, a few villagers saw her but she could only hope for the best.

  Because Yu Dong had to wake early and even load so much on the cart she was indeed thirsty, so she took a sip of the tea and smacked her lips, this tea was really good.

  Song Yixu watched as Yu Dong and Ye Liu drank her favourite tea without knowing its cost or how precious it was but she didn't look at them in contempt instead she engaged in small talks with the two of them until Sister Xi brought the jam that Yu Dong had brought with her. When Sister Xi saw that her boss was being so humble towards Yu Dong and her husband despite never showing such a humble side to the officials, but still she didn't show it on her face and placed the jam that she brought in front of Song Yixu.

  " what's this ?" Song Yixu thought that Yu Dong might have brought another wine but instead, it was something gooey and smelled sweet. Song Yixu poked the Jam with her spoon and then delivered it straight to her mouth. Immediately a burst of sweet berries exploded in her mouth and Song Yixu's eyes widened in surprise something so sweet yet flavorful, what exactly was this?

  Yu Dong explained with a smile when she noticed Song Yixu's gaze that was screaming ' tell me !' " Madam Song, this is called Jam. It's sweet and flavorful in taste, from mango to berries, I can make jam out of most fruit as long as they have pulp. It can be eaten together with bread or bun, as long as you want to add sweetness to your meal, jam can be a perfect side dish. And I was thinking about adding this jam in the contract as well, will that be fine ?"

  " of course, it will be!" what Song Yixu wanted to say was ' is that even a question ' but her rationality stopped her. She was not only the boss of Delicacy, but she was also the heiress of the Song family. She needs to act with dignity!

  " then I would be frank Madam Song, as you can see that I not only have to buy these jars for my wine and jam but also need to use a lot of sugar in the jam to preserve it for long. Sugar is really expensive and if I sign a contract then I hope that I will be able to make up for the damages done to my pocket, so how about sixty to forty per cent for five years?"

  Song Yixu frowned a bit upon hearing the share but then she thought about it carefully, from start to finish she didn't need to expand her resources at all. Yu Dong's secret recipes spoke for themselves, she only needs to give these a platform and let the customers order, it wouldn't be wrong to say that she was practically making money out of nothing. After thinking it through, Song Yixu nodded" all alright, sixty to forty, it is then but I hope to see a new batch every week. Will that be okay ?"

  Yu Dong thought about it a little then nodded "alright, a new batch every week"

  Song Yixu didn't think much about Yu Dong's agreement, she thought that Yu Dong might have made a bigger stock and had some saved at home. What Song Yixu didn't know was that Yu Dong actually talking about brewing a new stock every week.

  " Alright, today I will buy this entire stock for eight taels, forty for the wine jars and forty for the jam ones, you have to go easy on me because I'm paying the same price for these small bottles of jams as well, for the contract we will start from next month, I will send Sister Xi to bring the new stock as for your share I will send it at the last of every month, " said Song Yixu

  Yu Dong didn't think too much, she knew that it was already good enough that the jam and wine were sold at the same price. So she nodded her head and consented.

  With the name of the Song family behind the contract was done and written very fast. Within an hour Yu Dong and Song Yixu signed the contract and, after signing the contract, Song Yixu invited Yu Dong and Ye Liu to have lunch, only then did she let them go-

  " are you okay ?" Yu Dong saw that Ye Liu was still as shocked as he was the last time and gently patted his forearm to wake him up.

  " almost a hundred taels" Ye Liu couldn't help but whisper excitedly " we made a total of eight taels by just selling wine and jam, and we didn't even lose much !"

  Ye Liu was really excited, he had never seen a hundred taels in his entire life but now his family's savings was more than a hundred taels how exciting!

  Yu Dong shook her head at his child-like excitement and said lightly " don't worry as long as we work hard we can make more, now let's go and buy some bricks and tiles"

  " bricks? Why? " Ye Liu who was excited because of the sudden windfall couldn't help but frown when he heard that that need to spend money again.

  " How can you forget? We need to renovate our house before winter comes. For that, we need bricks, tiles and even wood !" answered Yu Dong before steering Ye Liu to the shop that sold building materials.

  The two of them were so focused on conversing about the renovation of their house that they didn't see Yu Tong who was standing on the opposite street with a mer in her arms.
