Chapter 416: Chapter 416 Continuation

Nanzhi wasn't afraid that Hen Xiang would leak the recipe for the jam.

Upon their purchase, they had signed a contract.

They were not to disclose the recipe for three years; even if they paid to cancel their contracts, they'd have to wait the full three years. Otherwise, the offender would pay a penalty of one hundred taels of silver.

Nanzhi still kept that contract.

One hundred taels was the income of an ordinary family of three for five years. The other wealthy families in Yan City wouldn't be interested in the recipe for the jam, and the lesser families wouldn't be willing to risk one hundred taels of silver.

Ice drink shops may make money, but only for about three months out of the year.

For causing trouble, Qian Er was beaten with twenty planks and locked up for seven days before being released.

Nanzhi was in the women's tower chatting with Miss Zeng when she heard this news.

"Madam, Hen Xiang came back yesterday..." Ling Long leaned over and whispered in Nanzhi's ear.
