Springtime Farming: A Happy Wife At Home - Chapter 268

268 Not Enough

Apart from doing business with them, Yuezheng Xiao found that Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan were good people to get on with. They were worth being friends with.

Startled, Shao Yunduan nodded. “Okay, greetings, Brother Yuezheng!”

“Greetings!”

The three of them exchanged a few words before Qiao Xuan returned.

!!
Yuezheng Xiao’s eyes were sparkling, as he asked politely how big the production number was.

Qiao Xuan smiled. “Young Master Yuezheng, you can take away 1,200 lipsticks. The roses are no longer blooming, but other flowers can replace them. We will make 500 more next month. But have you got any lipstick tubes with you?”

Yuezheng Xiao nodded and then showed the box to Qiao Xuan, asking her to take it. “I asked for a special design, what do you think?”

Then, he offered Qiao Xuan some special tools that she had asked him to find. He smiled. “I have completed my mission. I hope you can be satisfied, Mrs. Shao.”

Seeing the jade-made jars and all tools including the pestle, small hand mill, large and small beakers, funnels, filter utensils, Qiao Xuan smiled. “Thanks, Young Master Yuezheng, you have done very well!”

Yuezheng Xiao smiled. “Great!”

Yuezheng Xiao and Xie Jingrong both understood that they made the lipsticks in the floral fields, which should be their business secret, so neither of them proposed to visit there.

Yuezheng Xiao said in a joking tone that he did not need to worry about lipsticks, and that he could sell as many as he wanted. He just wondered whether she wanted to expand the scale.

Qiao Xuan shook her head and turned down the proposal.

She did not think that it was time yet.

It wasn’t a very easy thing. Her superpower would urge the flowers to bloom, but if that was going to be a big business, she needed to stay away so that the business chain could develop well.

For example, she needed a lot of staff to work on the whole process, which would cause a lot of trouble and which was not something she was able to do right now.

Yuezheng Xiao said nothing more, though he felt that it was a pity.

He just told her that she should pay attention to the news, and could just buy a few maids to work for her so that the production could be increased some more. She shouldn’t be restricted to her own family members.

Also, she could not hire someone who was outside her control to do the work, otherwise the business secret would be revealed.

That was really a neutral suggestion, which Qiao Xuan had thought about as well. She expressed her gratitude.

But she knew that it was not the right time yet.

She needed to wait until Shao Yunduan passed the next level of the imperial exam.

Please, God and Buddha, please, let her husband pass the next level in the year to come!

She figured that Yuezheng Xiao and Xie Jingrong would stay back for lunch.

So while Shao Yunduan chit chatted with them, Qiao Xuan asked Liu Yan to help her cook some food.

It was a hot day, and Qiao Xuan decided to make some light dishes to serve an elegant young master like Xie Jingrong. She would avoid making chili chicken or boiled fish.

He would not be used to this kind of taste.

Qiao Xuan hoped that the two young masters would have a good impression of her home.
