Shao Qingyuan immediately denied it. “Not enough.”

Liu Wei straightened his neck and wanted to retort, but Gu Yundong agreed. “It’s indeed not enough.”

“Then who are you looking for?” Liu Wei was unconvinced. The Liu Family was considered one of the best in the county, right? Besides, their Liu Family also had someone backing them.

Gu Yundong said, “Last time, you said that the emperor intended for Qin Wenzheng to return to the court. Is the news accurate?”

“Of course…” He paused and narrowed his eyes. “You want Qin Wenzheng to be your backer?”

Well, well, Qin Wenzheng was indeed a very suitable candidate…

However, he said, “Will he agree? Actually, our Liu family is not bad. You can even work with our family. Our family has channels and connections. Your sugar will definitely sell well.”

This brat finally thought of helping his family with business.

This white sugar was a new thing and was very expensive. It was unique. The Liu family was already planning to leave the county city and walk to the prefectural city. This white sugar had come at the right time.

“Last time, you said that Qin Wenzheng went out. It’s been so many days. Has he returned to the county?” There was another reason why Gu Yundong did not want to work with the Liu family. The Liu family was in business.

It was business. They could cooperate in the future. It would be easier to settle the score if everything was clear.

However, if they were her backer, she had no advantage at all. She could only do whatever the Liu family said.

However, Qin Wenzheng was an official. She would give him a certain amount of profit. He would be her protective umbrella. They would each take what they needed.

Of course, the prerequisite was that she had to meet Qin Wenzheng first and see if he was really as the rumors said.

Liu Wei was still indignant. “Qin Wenzheng is focused on the people and the country. He might not be willing to be your backer.”

“Refining such fine white sugar can be considered a big step forward for the development of the country. Isn’t it considered serving the country and the people?”

“What if he asks you to give the secret recipe directly to the imperial court?”

“If what he offers is enough to move me, it’s not impossible.” Gu Yundong had never thought of keeping this secret recipe to herself. Sooner or later, the Yellow Mud Method would flourish.

Liu Wei couldn’t refute her. He mumbled, “Brother Qin is back.”

Then, he looked at the jar in her hand and asked, “You really can’t give this to me?”

His expression of ‘I can’t wait to slap the white sugar on Tao’s face and mock him for being ignorant and ask him to hand over the shops that he has lost’ was simply blinding.

“Can’t you stand it? Give me another ten days at most, and I’ll give you twenty pounds.”

“Alright, alright.” It was so difficult to endure for ten days.

Gu Yundong said, “Actually, you can use these ten days to let Tao show off in front of you again. Then, you can take the opportunity to increase the stakes. When that time comes…”

Liu Wei looked at Gu Yundong. Was this girl so sinister?

Still, he liked it.

“Hahaha, you’re too smart. You’re right. This time, I’ll let Tao shoot himself in the foot and make him bleed.”

After saying that, Liu Wei turned around and ran away. “Liu An, let’s go back.”

Liu An hurriedly responded and followed.

Gu Yundong watched as he ran away like a gust of wind. He could not help but turn to Shao Qingyuan and say, “Do you think I’ll be affected by him being so silly?” n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Just stay away from him in the future.”

Gu Yundong nodded in agreement. However, halfway through, he suddenly clapped his hands. “Oh no, I forgot to tell him that this matter is confidential. Don’t tell the Liu family for the time being..”
