Chapter 578: Chapter 565: Despicable

Although this action might seem a bit ostentatious, there was indeed not a single problem with what Zhong Yingcai said.

“By the way, Manager Zhuang,” said Zhong Yingcai, “I have a suggestion. Please consider it and see if it’s feasible.”

“Please go ahead, Manager Zhong.”

“If we continue to make the regular square soap bars, it would be quite ordinary. But if we were to create soap molds in various shapes, wouldn’t that make it more appealing?”

Zhong Yingcai continued, “For instance, we could make the peach blossom soap in the shape of a peach blossom. Similarly, if we were to make soaps out of apricot flowers or roses in the future, we could use their respective shapes. This would allow people to easily identify what type of flower the soap is made from, making it more attractive.”

“Manager Zhong, your proposal is excellent.” Zhuang Qingning nodded her head in agreement. In her heart, she was silently applauding for Zhong Yingcai’s idea.

This was the thought of long-time businessmen; they were often more advanced than what she had thought, relieving her from having to worry about these details.

“Since Manager Zhuang agrees, I’ll start making arrangements,” Zhong Yingcai responded with a smile.

Zhong Yingcai swiftly put the plans into action. Within a few days, new molds were custom-made, making it possible to start producing new soaps.

These soaps began being transported to the capital city, getting ready for the opening of Linglong Pavilion.

While the soap business was booming, Zhuang Yutian and Mrs. Meng were also progressing well on their end.

They began installing spinning machines and looms at the site, as well as starting to purchase cotton.

Manager Li was slightly surprised to see that it was Zhuang Yutian who ended up using the land that he had signed a contract with Zhong Yingcai for. After asking around, he learned that Zhong Yingcai and Zhuang Yutian both worked for the same boss, so he didn’t say anything more.

As far as he was concerned, he still received the agreed-upon amount of money for renting the land. Whether it was used to produce cloth or make soap made no difference to him.

As for the plot twist involved, he decided not to care about it.

As a result, Manager Li took the rental payment without concern and went back to managing his bookstore leisurely.

As for Cao Jiande, he was so angry that he smashed two cups.

Despicable, despicable!

Upon noticing Zhuang Yutian was up to something again, he had contemplated ruining Zhuang Yutian’s plan.

However, doing so would not only harm Zhuang Yutian’s plan but also his own business. Despite his attempts to dissuade Manager Li, Manager Li was adamant about not renting the land to Zhuang Yutian.

Eventually, Cao Jiande had to find another way. He planned to rent the land himself, thwarting Zhuang Yutian’s plan, and compensated for the high cost of the land rental by focusing his anger on Zhong Yingcai.
