Peasant Woman's Decreed Life as a Wife

It would also attract many counties to follow suit.

Generally speaking, the time of the female art competition held in each county was different. This was what she heard from Chu Heng. The female art competition was to promote the virtue of women. There would always be a day or two difference in the competition.

He also wanted to let this lively news spread to Jing City.

Of course, the possibility of this was very small.

However, as long as he could increase the number of people under his rule, it would be a considerable contribution. For an 8th-grade official like the county magistrate, if he wanted to be promoted, the increase in the number of people under his rule during the triennial assessment would also be a contribution to his promotion.

Because of this, Ye Muyu planned to use Chu Heng, a scholar, to deal with the county magistrate and do this business.

This way, the cake would definitely become popular.

She would also be able to sell for an excellent price.

However, Chu Heng suddenly told her that the third young master of the Xie family, Xie Yu, was interested in milk cakes. She knew that the Xie family was a rich family. Xie Yu’s great-grandfather had once been a third-grade official and had entered the cabinet. He was a proper high-ranking official.

However, for some reason, the whole family returned to their hometown. Of course, this did not mean that there were no officials in the Xie family. On the contrary, Xie Yu’s uncle was a county magistrate in a nearby county.

His father also had a high ranking. If it was not for his poor health, he would have long passed the imperial examination.

Not only that, but the Xie family was also the richest family in the entire Nanchang County.

In short, many famous shops in the county belonged to the Xie family. Of course, other than shops, there were also many villages.

In short, the Xie family was very rich. Even the county magistrate had to give them some face.

She had planned to sell the recipe to the Xie family from the beginning, but if she wanted the Xie family to notice and confirm its value, Ye Muyu naturally had to let the milk cake become famous first.

As for making the cake for the female arts competition, it was most suitable to go through the county magistrate.

After all, on that day, every citizen would be able to receive a blessing cake to celebrate. It was difficult not to become famous.

In this way, the cake recipe in her hands could be sold at an excellent price. At least, it would not be sold at a low price.

As for why she did not sell it herself and earn money slowly, this was the result of Ye Muyu weighing the pros and cons.

Firstly, she was not in good health. Making two or three cakes a day was her limit. If she made more, the money she earned from the cakes would not be as much as the money she would have to spend on medicine.

Secondly, it was even more unreliable to hire someone to do it. The recipe would be exposed in an instant. Moreover, she urgently needed a sum of silver to buy a shop and the cost of doing other business.

The cake was just one of the modern foods. She did not have to hold the cake recipe in her hand.

After some consideration, it was more appropriate to sell it.

In this way, if she wanted a satisfactory price, she could only do business with the richest Xie family in the county. Moreover, the Xie family had a good reputation. She had also asked Chu Heng first and confirmed that his character was good. At least, he would not be greedy or rob. That was why she made this decision.

Of course, the most important reason was that the cake had to be fresh to taste good. There was no refrigerator at this time, and even ice cubes were luxury items that only rich people had. Even if she opened her own shop, she would not sell food that was not easy to preserve like cake.

Moreover, the consumption in a county was not large. At most, she would sell them herself at first.

As time went on, it would be good enough to earn one or two taels of silver a month. After all, a cake was just a pastry.

However, the Xie family was different. The Xie family probably had shops in the nearby county cities. They could do business in the surrounding areas, so they naturally earned more than her..
