Chapter 683: Misunderstanding
Editor: Henyee Translations
After speaking to Nie Shuang, she turned to look at Gu Yundong.
Gu Yundong’s mouth twitched and she said, “Actually, you can buy my recipe. When the time comes…”
Before she could finish speaking, she saw Nie Shuang shake her head so hard that the pearl hairpin on her head almost fell off.
She said very seriously, “No, you have to participate.”
“Why not?”
Nie Shuang did not speak, but Madam Dai, who was at the side, seemed to have read her mind. She could not help but cover her mouth and laugh. “I know why. She doesn’t have confidence in herself. She’s afraid that she’ll mess up the shop that she has worked so hard to open.”
Gu Yundong looked at Madam Dai. “Don’t we still have you?”
Madam Dai shrugged and said frankly, “I can still be of some use to deal with those madams and young ladies, but I’m afraid I can’t operate a shop. Otherwise, why do you think my shop is empty?”
Gu Yundong felt terrible. She did not need to care about anything else?
Didn’t they know that it was more tiring to use the brains? ƒгeewebnovёl.com
Nie Shuang blinked and said pitifully, “Sister Yundong, look, you just have to come up with an idea. We’ll do whatever you say. When the time comes, you’ll take 50% of the money we earn. How about that?”
Not so good. Why don’t you take a look at how old you are? Why are you still acting cute like Yunke??
Madam Dai was more rational. She analyzed the situation from the point of view. “Yundong, actually, this won’t do you any harm. Your business will only grow in the future and you’ll get to know more and more people. When the time comes, the customers in our shop we’re cooperating to run will all be your connections.”
It did make sense. If she opened an elegant and comfortable teahouse, with the recommendation of Madam Dai and Eldest Miss Nie, the people who went would be some women of high status.
The prefecture magistrate was working for the emperor, and the Nie family had a close relationship with Aunt Ke. Speaking of which, Gu Yundong was the one who had taken advantage of them.
Madam Dai and Nie Shuang looked at each other. Seeing that she did not say anything and was probably thinking about the feasibility, they immediately stopped talking.
Since they were doing business, she had to know the pros and cons.
Actually, when Madam Dai saw how cautious she was, she heaved a sigh of relief. If she was like Nie Shuang, whose eyes lit up the moment an idea popped up, she would not be at ease.
After a long time, Gu Yundong heaved a sigh of relief. She met their eyes and said, “Alright, let’s cooperate. But we still need to discuss the division of the profits…”
“Alright, you’ll take 60%.”
Gu Yundong: “…” No, wait. You’ve misunderstood me.
She rubbed her forehead. “I’m saying that 50% is too much. You said it yourself. You’ll be responsible for the shop, the silver, and the hard work. It’s also your job to attract customers. I’m just giving an idea. It’s not appropriate for me to take so much.”
“Yes, yes.” Even Dai nodded. “If you don’t participate, we won’t dare to open the shop even if we pay.”
However, Gu Yundong insisted on refusing. It might not be a problem in the early stages, but what about later? When the business became big and there was a conflict, her shares would be the primary problem.
Moreover, there was no problem with Madam Dai and Nie Shuang now, but what would their families think if they knew?
Besides, among the three of them, she was the weakest.
Therefore, from the beginning, she should make it clear about the problem of the shares so that they would not fall out over such things in the future.
