Chapter 313 - 312: She, Shen Baolan, is Still Stronger than Shen Mingzhu
Wang Hongcheng had been eyeing the fresh flower cakes and snowflake crisps in Shen Mingzhu’s hands for a long time.
He had started out in the pastry business himself and enjoyed some glory for a few years, but with the opening of policies in the past two years, more and more people had entered the business world, increasing competition and leading to a decline in the bakery’s profits year after year.
This was why he had initially signed a profit-sharing agreement with Shen Mingzhu rather than buying out the mooncake recipe with a lump sum payment.
Not to mention that Shen Mingzhu was unwilling to sell the mooncake recipe, he also couldn’t bear to fork out a thousand or so dollars at once.
After all, he hadn’t been certain whether the mooncakes would sell at the time.
As it turned out, his judgment was correct; the mooncakes were well-received upon their launch and even secured a large order from Hengxing.
He had wanted to kick Shen Mingzhu to the curb and enjoy the big cake that was Hengxing all by himself, only to find out that Hengxing recognized only the Ronghua brand, which forced him to begrudgingly give Shen Mingzhu a cut of five thousand dollars.
Although he had also made a good sum from the Ronghua mooncakes, who would ever complain about having too much money?
He could have earned even more!
What made him more envious and resentful was that Shen Mingzhu had actually introduced such trump products as the fresh flower cakes and snowflake crisps, earning pots of money.
