    “That won’t work. 20% is sufficient,” objected Qin Zhenzhen’s cousin, Yang Hong.


    “Your seasonings are sold in my store, and it doesn’t require much space. I have to manage the store anyway, so thebor costs are minimal,” Yang Hong exined.


    Qin Zhenzhen persisted, “This is a long-term business, and the profits should be generous to ensure a fruitful cooperation in the future.”


    Yang Hong had his own n. “Cousin, how about we sign a contract? You will exclusively sell your seasonings to us, and the profits will still be 20%.”


    Qin Zhenzhen smiled. Her cousin was indeed a shrewd businessman.


    However, making seasonings wasn’t overly difficult. Moreover, she needed her cousin’s assistance to expand their business in the county, and she wanted everyone to earn a fair share. That was the best way to coborate.


    “Cousin, even if you hadn’t mentioned it, I would have willingly signed the contract with you, and the profits would still be 30%.”


    “But let’s make it clear that I’m granting you exclusive rights in the county, not elsewhere.”


    Yang Hongughed. “Okay, okay! It’s a deal. I can’t leave the county for the time being.”


    “But Cousin, I have one request. If you have any other innovative products to sell, please consider giving me exclusive rights in the county first.”


    Qin Zhenzhen chuckled. “You’re absolutely right. I n to make soy sauce, and if it turns out well, I’ll offer you the first opportunity.”


    “That’s a deal!”


    Su Bin remained at the stall until he finished his examination. He stayed there from morning until evening, only having two slices of pancakes for lunch, and now his stomach was growling in hunger.


    Spotting his brother emerging from the examination hall, Su Ping approached him with delight.


    “Third Brother, did anything noteworthy ur?”


    Su Bin wore a rare smile.


    “I’m out of the examination hall, what could go wrong?”


    Su Ping grinned in response. “Was the paper challenging?”


    “It wasn’t difficult. If you have a good grasp of the knowledge from the books you’ve studied, you can secure a ce on the rankings.”


    The county examination wasn’t overly arduous; otherwise, they wouldn’t select 100 candidates each year.


    The real challengesy in the prefectural examination and the academy examination.


    This reassured Su Ping even more.


    Memorization wouldn’t pose a problem for Third Brother.


    Suddenly, Su Bin turned his attention to his Second Brother. “Second Brother, have you been here the whole time?”


    Su Ping nodded. “Not even for lunch?”


    “Yes…”


    However, his rumbling stomach betrayed him.


    “Second Brother, let’s go grab a meal and find Fourth Brother.”


    Su Bin suppressed his emotions. He knew that his Second Brother must have skipped lunch, so he refrained from mentioning it.


    But he suggested, “We should express our gratitude to Constable Yang at his home. Without him, things wouldn’t have gone so smoothly.”


    Su Bin didn’t want to go. “Didn’t you say we should avoid raising suspicion?”


    She intended to meet Qin Zhenzhen at the Yang Family’s residence.


    To outsiders, it might seem as though he was visiting his wife!


    “That’s different from going to a restaurant. We’re visiting rtives at the Yang Family, so there’s no need to be so cautious.”


    Su Bin still resisted the idea.


    He yed his trump card. “Did you hear that Honglian is dead?”


    Su Bin remained unfazed. He responded calmly, “I anticipated that.”


    Su Ping attempted to entice him. “Don’t you want to know who framed you?” Su Bin was intrigued. “Who knows the truth?”


    “I believe Third Sister-inw should know. Constable Yang informed her,” he recounted to Su Bin.


    “I informed Third Sister-inw about Honglian’s death, and she didn’t seem surprised at all, just like you. It indicates that she already knows about Honglian’s demise, and it won’t affect your examination any further..”
