The Five-Kernel Mooncake was more complicated. Moreover, it was called the Five-Kernel Mooncake but it did not mean that there were only five ingredients. The filling contained walnuts, peanuts, pine nuts, hemp nuts, sesame seeds, and orange skin. Not only was it exquisite, but it was also very rich. With a bite, there were many nut flavors and it was very delicious.

Chu Qingzhi broke the Five-Kernel Mooncake into two and looked at the ingredients carefully. Then, she tasted it. The sweetness was moderate. The skin was soft and thin, and the nuts inside were crispy. The taste was not bad.

“Young Master Tan, you asked an experienced chief to make these mooncakes, right?”

Tan Mengyang smiled. “Miss Chu is indeed smart. This chef has been working in my family’s workshop for 20 years and is very experienced.”

If not for his rich experience, he would not have been able to make a new mooncake so delicious on his first try. Chu Qingzhi said, “Your chef’s culinary skills are not bad. Just make it according to this standard.”

Tan Mengyang said, “Alright, if there are no other questions, I’ll take my leave. 1’11 try to hand over the 20,000 mooncakes to you the day after tomorrow.”

Chu Qingzhi said, “Young Master Tan, do you mind telling me some ways to sell mooncakes?”

She didn’t worry about selling 50,000 mooncakes in the three county cities, but wouldn’t it be better if she could sell them a bit quicker?

Tan Mengyang smiled and said, “Coincidentally, many shopkeepers came to me to order mooncakes. I thought that Miss Chu had other plans, so I didn’t mention you to them. The total number of mooncakes they want is more than 20,000.1 wonder how many you can provide?”

Chu Qingzhi said, “I have 30,000 here. If they want them all, that’ll be great. This way, I won’t have to sell them personally.”

Tan Mengyang smiled. “Deal.”

Chu Qingzhi smiled. “Deal.”

Tan Mengyang said, “Miss Chu, I’ll go back and make the arrangements immediately. I’ll take my leave.”

Chu Qingzhi said, “I’ll send you out.”

Tan Mengyang stood up and walked out. After taking two steps, he suddenly stopped and sniffed. “Miss Chu, what are you cooking at home? It smells so good.”

At this moment, Li Qingyu was making bread in the kitchen with a few aunties in the village. The fragrance came from the bread.

The bread had to be sold too. If she could take this opportunity to obtain another deal, it would not be bad. Chu Qingzhi said, “Young Master Tan, wait a moment.”

Tan Mengyang nodded and sat back down. He was extremely curious. At the same time, he could not help but sigh. Chu Qingzhi’s family had endless new things.

Chu Qingzhi went to the kitchen to get two pieces of bread and two biscuits. She placed the two plates on Tan Mengyang’s tea table. “Young Master Tan, try them.”

In this era, pastries were high-end food. Selling them for 50 copper coins was considered approachable to commoners.

Tan Mengyang smiled and said, “Miss Chu, you don’t look like a businessman at all.”

Chu Qingzhi understood what Tan Mengyang meant. He meant that she sold things at a cheaper price and didn’t seem to care much about money. For example, ice cream bar. If it were someone else, they would have sold it for at least 20 copper coins a piece.

“Small profits but quick turnover.”

Since the start, Chu Qingzhi had never thought about opening a shop. She wanted to open a factory straight away. It was troublesome to open a shop. Every day, she would have to face so many people and the schemes of her competitors. She even had to send someone to manage it.

Everyone in the family was from the village and was not good at handling these things. It was different to open a factory. They only needed to face the shopkeepers who ordered the goods in large quantities. How simple was that?

Moreover, the good locations in the county city had long been occupied. Moreover, these people could open shops in the county city smoothly because they more or less had connections.

Tan Mengyang smiled and stopped talking about this topic.

Chu Qingzhi sent Tan Mengyang to the carriage. “Young Master Tan, if the things are sold out, please send someone to tell me so that I can make preparations in time.”

“No problem,” Tan Mengyang agreed readily.

The carriage moved further and further away. Chu Qingzhi turned around and walked back to the old house.

Everyone was busy making mooncakes. As soon as she walked over, she could smell the thick mooncake fragrance in the air.

Shen Ruyue waved at Chu Qingzhi. “Qingzhi.”

Chu Qingzhi walked towards Shen Ruyue. “How many mooncakes have you made?”

Shen Ruyue pointed at the box full of mooncakes and said, “There are fourteen thousand of them.”

Chu Qingzhi said in satisfaction, “This progress is not bad.”

Shen Ruyue asked, “Qingzhi, how much are we seeling the mooncakes.”

Chu Qingzhi said, “As far as I know, the mooncakes in the county are sold for 35 copper coins each. Ours are also sold for 35 copper coins. If someone wants it in large quantities, we can lower the price a little.”

The cost of a mooncake was 20 copper coins.

Mooncakes were also considered pastries. They could not be too cheap.

Shen Ruyue replied, “Qingzhi, I understand..”
