[Pride and Prejudice] Lady Makes Money

Mrs. Horst's voice fell silent, and several men present sat up straight at the same time, and Bingley's expression tightened, fearing that his sister would make something wrong again.

Mrs. Horst also noticed their nervousness, and she hastily added: "Miss Manli, I swear on my own reputation, the prescription is for my own use and will never be passed on. I just... ..."

Speaking of this, she looked at her husband again, and sighed: "After eating the dishes you cooked today, I'm afraid that my husband will think about it day and night for a long time, and he will never forget it."

Hearing Mrs. Horst's straightforwardness, Manli couldn't help curling the corners of her lips.

She suddenly discovered that the lady in front of her was not without merit, at least she was also sincere to her relatives.

This made Manli's antipathy towards her decrease a lot.

"No problem, I'll make a copy for you later, um, and I'll give you a recipe for today's breakfast by the way." She smiled and said.

Several men were taken aback and exclaimed almost simultaneously: "Miss Manli!"

Bingley reacted the fastest.

He even stood up in a hurry: "Miss Manli, do you know what you are talking about? This kind of family prescription is wealth, do you understand it?! Why do you give it to others so easily? Banner Mrs. Te knows that she will faint!"

"No, I came up with these prescriptions myself, and my mother doesn't care." Manli replied with a smile on her face.

Bingley gasped, his eyes widened in an instant!

Although they are under the same roof, he does not have a clear understanding of Mary like Jean and Darcy.In his heart, this is a smarter girl, nothing else.

Now that she came up with these recipes by herself, how could he not be surprised?

But he is also a real gentleman after all, and after realizing it, he hates iron even more.

"Then you should keep it well! Silly girl, do you understand that these are all your wealth, and they can be used as dowry when you get married in the future! How can you give it to whoever you say?"

"Cough cough!"

Before he finished speaking, Mr. Horst coughed violently.

Only then did Bingley realize that his sister was also looking at him with a resentful expression.

"..."

He suddenly lost his voice.

"Puchi." Manli really laughed out loud this time.

"Mr. Bingley, you are so kind. I will keep your kindness in mind, but what I promised will definitely be fulfilled." Manli said with a smile.

"Everyone present at Fangzi should get a copy. As for who you want to give it to in the future, please feel free to do so. Don't tell me any more."

"Then... how much do I need to pay you?"

Manli's words made Mrs. Horst's heart tremble a little. Although she still looked calm, she could hear that even her voice was trembling if she listened carefully.

According to Manli's words, this prescription can be bought out, so the person who buys it will have the right to control it.

But... will the price be too much for her?

"No money, free gift." Manli replied lightly.

Boom!

Mrs. Horst was shaken by her words and supported the table next to her in a panic.

"No! Are you really a fool?!"

When she calmed down, she immediately refused loudly, and even the words in her mind couldn't help but come out.

Mrs. Horst was, after all, a lady of noble birth.

It's one thing to dislike the girls from the Ban family, but she never thought of taking advantage of others.

Her attitude made Manli even more satisfied.

She helped Mrs. Horst sit down, and then explained gently: "Thank you for thinking about me, but I said that I also have my plan to give the recipe to you. It's the same sentence, remember to say when you entertain guests and friends , These dishes must be made with our Bennet family's soy sauce, so I am very grateful."

Speaking of which, she even winked mischievously at Mrs. Horst: "This is mutual benefit, so no money."

Everyone was silent, and for a while, they were a little confused by the back and forth of the plot, and their moods were complicated.

Before they could recall, Manli threw another bomb!

"Mr. Darcy, I heard from my second sister that you want the design of the bathtub, no problem. Similarly, I don't want money, I just hope that when you give it as a gift, you must remember to give a copy of our class at the same time. A special bath gift package made by Nat's family. I will give you the sample along with the design drawing of the tub."

Manli thought about what Gene said last night for a long time, but she wasn't going to sell the formula as Gene suggested.

This kind of behavior, in her opinion, is no different from killing a chicken to get an egg.

Instead, she prefers to put a long line to catch big fish.

If the recipes can be popularized in this society, there will be no loss for Manli.

It seems that in later generations, apps for cooking are flying all over the sky, and anyone can follow the recipes to learn a few special dishes.

But, have all the chefs been laid off because of this?

There are thousands of people with different tastes in cooking, and Manli doesn't believe that with just one recipe, the food made by those people can taste better than hers.

On the contrary, the person who gets the prescription will definitely ask her to buy the seasoning!And this is a lot of gold coins that can be seen.

As for the bathtub, it should be a contribution to the world as well as to your own nose.

Even if only a few people can accept regular baths, Manli thinks it's worth the money.

Since she came to this world, she has already made simple shampoos, soaps, and even bath salts and body lotions for her own home.

If Mr. Darcy can really promote the bathtub, it will also open up a way of endless wealth for his family.

why not?

After Manli said these words, no one had any contempt for her anymore.

Among the people here, apart from the two girls from the Ban family, who else has no business at home and no shop in their hands?

When it comes to looking down on businessmen, it is all in front of outsiders.

The richer people are, the less likely they are to really struggle with money.

Especially the items mentioned by Manli, each one can be said to be produced by her own manor, and no one can refute it.

This is not the same as running a business.

Selling and replacing the agricultural products of the manor is a legitimate thing in this era. The more the manor produces, the more respected it will be.

Otherwise, why did those businessmen who have made enough money go all out to buy land and whitewash their identities?

Everyone understands that with their help, it would be very difficult for Miss Manli to realize the projects mentioned today.

In that way, the Bennets would soon be more than just a small country squire.

Thinking of this, the way everyone looked at the pair of sisters began to change.

Especially Mrs. Horst, when she thought that Miss Jane upstairs who was still ill was likely to be her brother's partner, a faint pride suddenly rose in her heart.

Only Jean was in a bad mood at the moment.

He felt slighted by Miss Manley.

She even readily agreed to the request of her cousin who once opposed her. Why did she politely reject her request to make tofu together?

What she said in the study before was a rejection of herself... right?

Thinking of this, Jean's mood suddenly became melancholy.

The few days behind Netherfield were very pleasant for Sister Mary.

What I enjoy is simply the life of the stars.

But it has been several days since they left home, and the three sisters are also a little homesick.

Especially thinking that the two young ones might have herded the sheep, Manli almost wanted to return home.

Therefore, after Jane's health improved and she was able to withstand the bumps of the carriage, they couldn't even wait to send a letter home and let their father send a carriage to pick it up, so they resolutely rejected everyone's repeated attempts to persuade them to stay, and borrowed the Bing Mr. Lay's carriage set foot on the way home.

Along the way, Manli was extremely happy.

She never thought that she would be the one who gained the most during this trip to Netherfield!

Although she didn't agree to Mr. Jean immediately about the tofu shop, from the bottom of her heart, she couldn't wait to sign the contract right away!

Even a fool can see how kind Mr. Jean is, and how superior the conditions he offers are. Compared with what I thought before, it is hundreds of times better to go to my uncle to cooperate, start with a small workshop, and develop slowly !

And if the business of the tofu workshop is started, the family business can be gradually transferred to Lanbai County.

If the conditions there are really as good as Mr. Jean said, Manli doesn't mind fooling her parents, and the whole family can move there.

At that time, whether it is soy sauce or the processing of toiletries, it can be done in an aboveboard manner.

And the income has nothing to do with the current manor.

That bloody Cousin Collins will never in his life take a dime from them!

I just don't know how much energy those people have.

Manli thought secretly in her heart.

But no matter what, you have to start preparing as soon as possible when you get home.

After all, I never thought about doing these businesses before, and there are not many stocks at home.

When I get home, I need to make a few more jars of soy sauce, and make more toiletries.

If this is the case, the servants of the family are certainly not enough.

I have to discuss with my father to hire more workers.

I don't know if he has enough money in his hand?

The more Manli thought about it, the more she felt that there were too many things that were imminent.

Now she can't wait to insert her wings and fly back immediately.

Fortunately, the distance is not too far. When she was still thinking wildly, the carriage had already arrived at the door of the house.

"Dad! Mom! We're back!"

Several sisters quickly jumped out of the carriage.

But what they never thought of was——

After being away from home for so long, what awaited them after they came back was not their parents, but hugs and kisses from their younger sisters.

It was the father moaning in pain.Moan, and mother's helpless wailing!
