Chapter 886: Chapter 194: Pulling the Wood from Under the Cauldron_3

Pei Qin confirmed in the next second, "The Kimchi Workshop was originally meant to be part of Pei Qian’s dowry, taken away by her. With the recipe sold and the supply hijacked, the Kimchi Workshop will be ruined thereafter."

The moment they heard she was taking the kimchi recipe to the Fang family as a dowry for Pei Qian, it meant that it was no longer theirs! The crowd sighed endlessly, Pei Qin marrying off her sister was indeed becoming more and more generous. However, this time the Fang family wouldn’t benefit, as Fang Hui’s house had sold the recipe, and even if they could produce it, they wouldn’t make much money, would they?

Fang Hui listened with hatred in her heart. She had begged her grandparents, asking them to give the kimchi to them but they refused, instead giving it as Pei Qian’s dowry to the Fang family. The Fang family already owned the Pickled Bamboo Workshop and the Sweet Potato Flour Workshop, and now they’re being given kimchi, while their own kimchi business was being squeezed out! Pei Qin had never considered her as her aunt!

Pei Qin scanned the crowd, and the buzzing crowd immediately quieted down. She continued, "So, anyone who has cabbages and wants to learn kimchi can bring them to the workshop, where we’ll teach you for free! From now on, the kimchi recipe will be made public, so that everyone can make it for their own consumption or to earn a little salt money!"

The crowd exploded at once, with the kimchi recipe made public, they would be able to make and enjoy kimchi themselves!

Feng Shouxing was instantly bewildered. If she made the kimchi recipe public and taught everyone, Boss Wu would definitely not be happy! The recipe was already sold at a loss, they had only received two hundred taels of silver, and he hadn’t even received half of that money yet!

"No! You can’t teach the recipe to everyone!" Grandma Feng stopped making a scene and began shouting as she got up.

Fang Hui trembled with hatred.

But Pei Qin had already made up her mind to teach the kimchi recipe to everyone, giving Xue Dong a meaningful glance on the side.

Xue Dong looked at Pei Qian.

Pei Qian’s face was sullen with reluctance, but seeing the reaction of Fang Hui and the other two, she pressed her lips together and said nothing to stop them.

Xue Dong and Lv Chun went straight home, took out all the ingredients they had prepared, and showed everyone how to make it on the spot.

"You can’t teach this! You can’t!" Grandma Feng shouted.

"The kimchi recipe belongs to my family, you have no say!" Pei Qin said coldly, glancing over.

Fang Hui cried out in pain regardless of her sore hand, "You are driving us to our deaths! Do you really have to drive us to death to be satisfied?"

"It seems like you no longer wish to run the noodle shop," Pei Qin raised her eyebrows.

Fang Hui was choked up and couldn’t speak.

Ignoring the three of them, Pei Qin went directly to the crowd that had pushed forward, explaining the ingredients and method for making kimchi.

The crowd was excited; after all, their family wasn’t short of money. Since Fang Hui’s house had sold the kimchi recipe, teaching it to everyone was both an act of charity and a lesson for Fang Hui’s house, as well as for that Boss Wu who had bought the recipe to use against them!

After hearing about the ingredients, the crowd also realized that although kimchi sounded easy to make, the ingredients were so particular that it wasn’t easy at all! No wonder it tasted good and was expensive! Now they had all learned, and they could make kimchi and spicy radishes themselves!

As Pei Qin had already publicized the recipe, despair hit Grandma Feng like a massive hammer, buzzing in her head. Thinking of the silver she had yet to receive, her blood rushed to her heart, and she passed out with her eyes rolling back.

No one paid her much attention; they were all listening to the ingredients and methods for making kimchi, shouting that they wanted to make kimchi.

The townspeople allowed to make kimchi began teaching their friends and neighbors in groups.

Feng Shouxing hesitantly helped Grandma Feng up and took her to the donkey cart.

Fang Hui cried and cursed, but it was as if calling to heaven and earth went unanswered. She almost wished she could roll her eyes back and pass out to end it all.

As Pei Qian watched the three of them, a sense of revenge welled up inside her. She took the initiative to send people to Yuanyang County and other townships to teach how to make kimchi, "You’ll still be paid for your work!"

The skinned miser found the task undemanding and much easier than working in the workshop, prompting the former employees to respond eagerly, noting that anyone could make kimchi, "Even a fool could learn!"

Grandma Sun then said, "Pei Qian still owes a lot of people for the kimchi she needs to compensate. Now that everyone is learning kimchi, let’s eat a little less cabbage this year and contribute some cabbages and radishes! Even if it’s not much, it’s a gesture, which could somewhat make up for the compensation without having to pay so much!"
