Ye Muyu went to the kitchen from the central room.
Chu Heng saw her coming over and subconsciously frowned to chase her away.
“It’s boring to sit alone in there,” Ye Muyu quickly said. “I’ll just look at you guys. I’m not going to do anything.”
“Alright, wait here. I’ll get you a stool.” Chu Heng quickly washed his hands, then went to the central room to bring a chair out. He placed it behind Ye Muyu and let her sit, not letting her get involved in anything.
Ye Muyu felt helpless, but she could only accept it because Chu Heng did not give her the chance to refuse.
Chu Heng carried the stool and continued to learn how to make the Soft Fragrance Cakes from Chu Ziluo.
“I think the soft cake baked in the oven will be more fragrant and less soft,” Ye Muyu reminded.”
Chu Heng had already put the cake base into the pot to steam, and his hands were free to stir the egg white to make cream.
Recently, there had been milk in the house. Chu Heng had asked Chu Xing to buy it every day.
“Will it be more fragrant?” Chu Heng raised his eyebrows. He seemed to have thought of something and rejected, “No need, we can try it out ourselves, but it’s not suitable to sell the ones that are too good to others.”
Ye Muyu looked at Chu Heng in surprise.
She also felt that using the oven to make it would make the Xie family more profitable. After all, the oven could not only make the Soft Fragrance Cakes, but also other types of baked cakes. The ancient people were not stupid. After a few more experiments, they could always develop new varieties without having to pay her money.
However, Ye Muyu wanted to try and see if they could raise the price.
After all, a pottery oven of this era was not very difficult to build. Even if they did not mention that the cake could be baked in the oven at the beginning, it would only be hidden for a while.
It was better to make connections with the Xie family.
Since ancient times valued aristocratic families, they would definitely value connections even more.
She did not care about her connections when it came to making small profits, but if she wanted to make big money, it would depend on whether she could find the right opportunity.
Ye Muyu had always been a cautious person. If her business did well, it would also be a help to Chu Heng’s imperial examination.
Seeing Ye Muyu tilt her head in deep thought, Chu Heng did not ignore that fleeting doubt.
He also took a stool and sat down in front of her. Looking at the woman’s beautiful face, he coughed lightly. When he saw Ye Muyu looking over, he explained, “The pastries now are already very novel. If they were any better, it would seem that this Soft Fragrance Cake is not precious. No matter what good items you have, you have to take them out slowly. Not only will it give people a sense of anticipation, but it will also raise the price very well. Moreover, after this many times, the other party will owe you a favor.” Chu Heng looked at her and said. His voice was deep and deep, but it was especially pleasant to hear.
Ye Muyu suddenly realized that Chu Heng was really good at controlling people’s hearts. He would not tell the Xie family that the oven could be used to make pastries.
This time, he would not accept money, but it would make the Xie family feel that they owed him a favor.
Later on, when they sold other things, the Xie family automatically raised the price.
After all this, it was impossible for them not to have a good relationship.
“Of course, this method can’t be used on everyone. It’s still fine for the Xie family,” Chu Heng said.
“You don’t have to worry. I’ll help you with the business. As for the rest, you can do whatever you want. You don’t have to work too hard. It’s my job as your husband to earn money for the family.” Chu Heng did not care if Ye Muyu could earn money or not. To him, it was an insult to if he had to rely on his wife for
money..
