Chapter 784: Chapter 784: Looking Up to the Bright Moon
“Just think about it, your beautifully round little cakes from various regions under Jiwuju banner, all available at once. There are so many flavors, you might recover this two thousand taels in no time,” she said.
Shopkeeper He twitched at the corners of his mouth after hearing this, “Two thousand taels, how many of them would we have to sell to make that back?”
The Zuixian Building might start imitating it before they even recover the cost.
“Well, it depends on your pricing for the mooncakes!”
Shopkeeper He twitched even more violently at his mouth corner, “We can’t just recklessly set the price.”
Jiwuju is earned from the rich, but they are not fools. They can’t just randomly set prices.
...
“Don’t worry, as long as you keep the recipe secret, Zuixian Building won’t be able to figure it out for a while. And, look at this round little cake, does it remind you of the moon?” Qiao Xiaomai said, picking one up and holding it in the air.
Shopkeeper He nodded after hearing this.
If you insist it’s like a moon, then it can be.
“If it looks like the moon, then it works. The other day, Sanlang casually wrote a poem while enjoying the mooncake and moon: Looking up to see the moon, looking down and thinking of home.”
“Think about it, for those wanderers who are far from home, there’s nothing better to remind them of home than a mooncake.”
Qiao Xiaomai continued to blurt out nonsense.
Actually, she didn’t really want to set such a high price. She and Sanlang were planning to buy some farmland. They still owed Yang Ye ten thousand taels of silver, and the manor hadn’t been built yet. They had to keep pouring money into it. Couldn’t she ask for a higher price?
Shopkeeper He was somewhat stunned by her words.
Looking up to see the moon and looking down to think of home?
He stared at the mooncake Xiaomai held up, his nose twitched sharply.
Her words had struck a chord in his heart. He was from the Capital City, but since he became Yu Ang’s confidant, he came to Bailu Town and only had one chance to visit home each year.
Bailu Town was nice enough, except for the frequent rivalry with Zuixian Building there wasn’t much to be bothered with.
But no matter how good Bailu Town was, it wasn’t his hometown…
When he thought of his parents back home, Shopkeeper He picked up another mooncake and began to eat it silently, looking somewhat lonely.
Qiao Xiaomai, “…”

The sudden silence was the worst.
So awkward.
She was just blathering Nonsense to jack up the price for selling. Sanlang was from Anping Village in the first place. He was looking at the moon while munching on a mooncake, there wasn’t any homesickness to express.
However, seeing Shopkeeper He right now, it was clear that she had hit a soft spot in his heart.
Qiao Xiaomai put the mooncake she held down, stuffed it into her mouth and started eating.
After the two finished the mooncakes in their hands, Shopkeeper He looked a little more composed. He picked up the tea cup, took a sip, and asked, “Miss Qiao, why would Sanlang write such a poem? He’s a native here, could it be that he….”
As Yu Ang’s confidant, he naturally knew about Yu Ang’s previous attempt to rebel. Now that Sanlang was feeling this way, could it be that he wasn’t giving up on his rebellious thoughts?
Qiao Xiaomai understood his concerns as soon as she heard it and hurriedly shook her head, “No, actually, he just sighed that poem when he was taking the exam in Prefecture City back then. At that time, he was confined to studying every day; he had no idea about the future. When he got emotionally complex, he couldn’t help but think of Anping Village.”
“I see.” Shopkeeper He said, enlightened.
“Alright, in consideration of this poem and the adaptable fillings, it will be two thousand taels.”
There was never a loss in buying anything from Qiao Xiaomai.
This should not be an exception this time.
