After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

1332 Do Business Together
“Wait, your surname is Zhao? Then who is Zhao Fei to you?” Qian’e asked with a frown. Li Gui’s expression also darkened.

They did not expect a member of the Zhao family to dare to come knocking on their door. Qian’e did not know much about what happened yesterday, but she knew about the messy issues between Zhao Fei and the Zhao family’s relatives.

“I… I… I’m Zhao Fei’s uncle,” Zhao Liu replied calmly.

...

“Uncle? Then what’s your relationship with the two brothers, Zhao Kai and Zhao Kun! What’s your name?” Qian’e asked fiercely.

He knew he had to answer this question carefully. Zhao Kai had already offended Li Gui and her daughter. If he told them the truth now, Li Gui would definitely feel annoyed with him.

“I’m Zhao Kai’s uncle. My name is Zhao Si,” Zhao Liu said with a smile.

“Who are you trying to fool! If that’s the case, then my name is Zhang San! You must be lying to us about your name! How can there be someone called Zhao Si!” Qian’e questioned.

“My name is really Zhao Si! It’s my parents who gave me this name,” Zhao Liu said aggrievedly. He tried his best to make it sound more convincing so that Li Gui would believe him.

Li Gui was disgusted with all the Zhao family members, but she felt she could not tar everyone with the same brush. There were probably still one or two good people in the Zhao family.

“Then why are you here to look for me?” Li Gui asked doubtfully.

“I’m here to do business with you! I don’t know what exactly happened between the few of you, but I’m very sure it must be Zhao Kai’s fault! I hear from the neighbors that Zhao Kai’s father has already severely punished Zhao Kai! Zhao Kai already knows that he’s in the wrong!” Zhao Liu said.

“Since you’re talking about doing business, then what do you have in mind?” Li Gui continued to ask.

Zhao Liu told Li Gui about his idea. Since Zhao Fei was only in charge of the popcorn business, he was willing to take charge of the other two food items. Anything was fine as long as he could earn money.

Before he came, he had specially found out more about Li Gui’s family background. He heard that Li Gui made very delicious braised meat and it sold really well recently. The moment he heard that, he immediately had dishonest thoughts.

Qian’e also understood what Zhao Liu meant, but she did not trust anyone from the Zhao family at all. She did not even trust Zhao Fei at the moment.

“How are we supposed to believe you? After what happened with your Zhao family, we really don’t think we can trust you,” Qian’e said.

Zhao Liu looked at Qian’e impatiently. This woman was so troublesome. She had been picking on him since the moment he entered the house. Li Gui had not even said anything, so how could this employee have any right to make any decision on Li Gui’s behalf.
“We’ve already told Zhao Fei before that we won’t work with the Zhao family’s relatives. You should go back,” Li Gui said calmly.

“But my idea is beneficial to everyone! You just need to take charge of the production at home while I’ll take charge of the sales. When the time comes, you can decide on how much money we earn. You just need to collect money at home. Furthermore, there are many people in our village who can help out!” Zhao Liu said.

Li Gui and Qian’e both knew that Zhao Liu’s method was very profitable, but they could not just take part in anything that made money. Even if it was their intention to expand their business in the future, they could no longer continue to work with the Zhao family.

“It can’t be that all good things must fall into the hands of your Zhao family. Why can’t we get help from other people? It’s not as if your Zhao family are the only people in the entire capital who know how to do business. Then is everyone else just good-for-nothings?” Qian’e questioned.

“Aren’t you Sister Li’s employee?” Zhao Liu suddenly asked.

“She’s my partner, not my employee,” Li Gui corrected him sternly.

“Look, there’s a difference between partners and people like us. As you know, partners get a share of the profits, but we only get to earn the difference between cost price and selling price. We’ll run errands for you and you just need to give us a little bit of money. I’m sure you’re magnanimous enough not to hold grudges. Zhao Kai is indeed too thoughtless. I’ll definitely teach him a lesson when I get back!” Zhao Liu said.

“Mr. Zhao, it’s better that you leave. We’ve already made it very clear that we won’t be hiring anyone who is a Zhao family relative. I hope you can understand our stand,” Qian’e said.

Since it seemed there was no way to salvage the situation, Zhao Liu did not pester them anymore. He had other plans in mind. He could only earn a little bit of money from this business. It was more important to find a way to get hold of Li Gui!

“Alright, I’ll go back now. Sorry to disturb you today,” Zhao Liu said readily.
