My Loyal and Lovely Husband

“Miss, what can I do for you?” Asks the waiter, who leaves a good impression. Jin Weiwei takes a look at the shop, where the transparent glasses and glittering light make the hall quite bright and shinning. Jin Weiwei marvels at goods in the shop, which may seems common in modern times but luxurious at that time. Thinking about that, she wonders whether the manager of Qi Huo Ju agrees to cooperate with her, which makes her feels upset. Nervously, she asks, “Is your manager there?” “May I ask what do you want?”

The waiter is confused because few people find the manager in the shop, unless she wants to form business relationship with them. “I want to negotiate with your manager to see whether we can form business relationship with each other.” Says Jin Weiwei peacefully as if she does not want to find the waiter but only the manager. Only Jin Weiwei knows that she is almost nervous to death. Seeing that, Little Rich grabs her hands dripping with sweat. Yesterday, he came to Qi Huo Ju and found that the manager only bought some common goods in the county and sold them overseas. These goods must be shipped to another countries. Hence, there’s a great possibility for the ship to contain a cold store so that… Thinking about that, Little Rich frowns suddenly. How can he remember that? He feels that something occurs in his mind; however, when he tries to concentrate on that thought, it will disappears immediately… It seems that he remembers something and forgets everything at the same time.

“For business? I don’t know when my manager will come back… so, how about you coming to visit him the next time?” Says the waiter, who responds to her question sincerely and earnestly, and does not tease her for her plain looking. That news disappoints her. Suddenly, a low but beautiful voice comes to her ear. “Madam, you want to have business with us, right?” Judging from the hair bun of Jin Weiwei, Zhou Yunsheng addresses her with “Madam”. However, when Jin Weiwei turns around, Zhou Yunsheng is surprised about her young face. Even though he is quite surprised about the appearance of Jin Wiewei, he calms down in a quite short period of time because of his rich experience in the business world.

Zhou Yunsheng looks narrowly at Jin Weiwei, while she also observes him at the same time. Zhou Yunsheng is a typical scholar-merchant whose appearance, his elegant temperament and gentle smile, make people feel comfortable like a soft breeze and a steady stream. Then she calms down and nods her head at Zhou Yunsheng a little bit. “Manager, nice to meet you. Would you mind if I take your some time to make a business deal with you?” Says Jin Weiwei. “You are so polite madam. Upstairs, please.” The moment they step into the room, Zhou Yunsheng notices the bag of Jin Weiwei. Then he shifts his eyes to Little Rich, whose appearance is quite elegant and noble and the temperament is so fierce that it is impossible for anyone to overlook him.

He is quite familiar with the temperament of Little Rich. When he did business with his master in the capital city, he encountered with many people of the same temperament like Little Rich, who is either rich people or belongs to the aristocratic families. “Gentleman who are you?” “He is my husband.” Smiles JIn Weiwei, making an introduction about Little Rich. Hearing that, Little Rich raises his head and looks at Zhou Yunsheng who is even frightened about the fierce eyesight of Littlr Rich. “I wonder what kind of business you want to do with me, Madam?” Asks Zhou Yunsheng. Jin Weiwei is an expert in doing business, so she can handle this situation with ease.

“Manager, have you ever tasted the sausages of Jin’s Meat-shop?” Asks Jin Weiwei, who intends to come to the topic slowly, because she always thinks that if she opens up directly, her eagerness will make her lose the dominant position in doing business with others. “The sausages in Jin’s Meat-shop? I have never taste them; however, I heard about that.” Responds Zhou Yunsheng. Touching his beard, he suddenly realizes that his wife often mentions the sausages in Jin’s Meat-shop. However, he does not take it seriously, because he is too occupied to his work and seldom has time to eat at home. “Are you the bosses of Jin’s Meat-shop?” Asks Zhou Yunsheng. Judging from the confidence from the eyes of Jin Weiwei which is hard found in common people, Zhou Yusheng knows that she is the boss of Jin’s Meat-shop.Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

The man near her is even more interesting, whose temperament is fierce enough to shock many people. “Yes, manager. How about tasting our sausages first?” Jin Weiwei is quite confident about her sausages, because so many people love them. If the manager does not like the sausages, he must have strange taste or he does not want to do business with her. “Fine…” Says Zhou Yunsheng, who is a man with crisp manners and knows nothing is better than the high-quality of the goods. Then, Jin Weiwei takes out a sausage from her bag and cuts a small piece for Zhou Yunsheng.

“Madam, you are really well-prepared for this negotiation and expresses all of the genuine good will for this cooperation.” Seeing the chopsticks and the plates, Zhou Yunsheng is quite satisfied about this couple for he thinks that they must be confident about their sausages. Taking a piece of sausage and putting it into the mouth, he is surprised by the excellent taste and great flavor of the sausage which entertains him with endless aftertastes.

Jin Weiwei stares at Zhou Yunsheng and she finds nothing else on his face except the surprise climbing on it the moment he puts the sausage into his moth. However, he can understand that, because if the manager appears greatly satisfied with her sausages, he will be trapped into a disadvantageous condition during the negotiation. “Manager, are you satisfied with my sausages?” Asks Jin Weiwei with a smile on his face. “Madam, you want to do business with Qi Huo Ju?” Asks Zhou Yunsheng, expressing his ideas about this cooperation.

“To tell the truth, my goal of doing business with you is for my husband, who needs money to cure his disease. Therefore, we want our portion.” Says Jin Weiwei sincerely. Then she switches her eyes to Little Rich. “Profit sharing? What do you think Madam?” Asks Zhou Yunsheng who is more satisfied with Jin Weiwei, because nowadays young there are few young people who is as honest as as she is. “40 percent.” Says Jin Weiwei, stretching her four figures. Actually, she is quite nervous, calm and steady as she looks. She makes allowance for bargain.

Seeing that, Zhou Yunsheng shakes his heads a little bit and touches his beard. “I know that you are a woman of crisp manner of speaking, Madam. So do I. 40 percent of the profit is not reasonable for me. How about 30 percent? I am afraid our business relationship will not be available if you refuse my suggestion.” Hearing that, Jin Weiwei feels relieved, because 30 percent is what she wants. “OK, no problem. Let’s sign a contract?” “Fine.”

….

Stepping out of Qi Huo Ju, Jin Weiwei feels quite happy and relieved. The sky seems much more brighter and beautiful than before. Just now, Manager Zhou paid earnest money for ten baskets of the sausages. That is 100 taels of silver! That is a month income, not including the cost. “The money is so easy to earn!” Exclaims Jin Weiwei.
